Text Chapter 4 Departure
At this time, Xiaobai, squinting his eyes, originally because of weakness, the exhalation sound in his nose was almost inaudible, and it could be clearly seen that the fluff on his body had changed from pale at the beginning to normal white. And it looks like it continues to mutate.
On such a night, Zhou Tian didn't know how he fell asleep last night, and saw himself covered with the quilt, Xiaobai lying on the quilt, shrunk into a ball, like a white hairball collapsed in the quilt.
"Hey, Xiaobai, how do you feel like you've become better-looking. "Zhou Tian just woke up, and he was still a little confused, but he felt that Xiaobai's hair was not like the sickly white that he just brought back yesterday, and he couldn't say why, but he felt better.
Dressing, washing.
After eating, I played with my sister and brought food to my father.
......
It's like this every day, the difference is that there is an extra heel worm every day, and wherever he goes on Sunday, there is a lion cub hanging behind his buttocks.
Time is like a white horse, and before you know it, half a year has passed.
Zhou Tian has grown a little taller, not much has changed, but Xiaobai, from the original sick appearance completely detached, now, the hair around the body is completely different from the pale half a year ago, the whole body is milky white, a lively look, especially the head, standing on all fours is also Zhou Tian's waist is higher. Where can you see the kind of appearance that was just brought back by Zhou Tian at that time?
However, Zhou Tian was not happy.
He doesn't know why, he feels that the family has become weird recently, his father's face seems to be getting whiter and whiter, in the past six months, or rather, in the past month, his face has often turned pale, like when Xiaobai first came. And Zhou Tian also felt that his father was getting stronger and less as before. Yes, it's just not that strong. Moreover, the originally black hair on the head has come out a little gray. And my mother, who has often had red circles under her eyes recently, knows that she must have secretly cried many times.
Although Zhou was only six years old, he could see that something must have happened at home, but his father and mother didn't say anything, even if they said it was okay every time they asked.
......
However, today is a very special day, at least for Zhou Tian's family.
Because, today, Sunday is about to start leaving home for the first long time. He's going to the city.
Therefore, he deliberately got up early today and deliberately put on the clothes he bought last year that he had been reluctant to wear.
After breakfast, I started running inside and out. From time to time, I wonder if I've forgotten something.
Actually, there is nothing left, just a few sets of clothes, plus some information such as paper to explain the identity. These things were almost prepared a few days ago.
I'm going to study in Star Spirit City.
Zhou Tian was a little excited, a little nervous, and even a little worried.
Meal.
"Alright, it's time to go. Zhou Lihai saw that the time was almost up, so he said.
"Hmm..." Sun Guiping was a little reluctant, touched Zhou Tian's head, looked at the six-year-old Zhou Tian, his eyes were red, although he knew that it was a good thing to study, but which mother was willing to let her six-year-old child go for half a year or even a year.
"Be careful along the way. Sun Guiping straightened Zhou Lihai's collar.
"Don't worry, it's okay, the village sends the child to practice every year, and I will accompany him this time, don't worry." When Zhou Lihai saw Sun Guiping's appearance, he was also somewhat affected by his emotions, and comforted him. But the pale face still couldn't hide his happy mood.
After all, their own children will no longer have to be like themselves in the future, and they will be ordinary laborers all their lives to earn a living.
What could be happier than that?
"Well, also, your body, are you okay?" Sun Guiping was still uneasy.
"It's okay, it's not good, it's good to rest for a while. After speaking, he deliberately bent his arm and showed off the muscles of his upper arm.
Sun Guiping was a little embarrassed by him like this. The worried look on his face eased.
"Let's go, little heaven. ”
"Okay! Xiaobai, let's go! Sister, be obedient at home, my brother will come back to see you in half a year, and I will bring you a gift when the time comes!
However, her sister Zhou Linger seemed to feel that her brother was going to leave her for a short time. He hugged Zhou Tian and refused to let go. Holding his mouth, he looked like he was going to cry.
"Okay, okay, my brother will be back soon, come, Ling'er is good. Sun Guiping coaxed while peeling off Zhou Ling'er and holding Zhou Tian's hand.
......
The children of the poor want to change their lives against the sky, it is easy to say, it is very simple, it is difficult to say, and it is also difficult.
It is simple because as long as you go to the village altar to test the spiritual root at the age of three, it can be said that it will change the fate of the whole family.
It's hard to say, first, if you don't detect the spiritual root, you are basically a mortal all your life, and if you don't encounter the opportunity to go against the sky, it is impossible to get rid of the fate of suffering, and you are just ordinary for a lifetime.
Second, for ordinary people, even if the spiritual root is detected, the cost of future growth and cost cannot be solved by simply a few hundred or thousands of gold coins. For an ordinary person whose gold coins can live for three days, not to mention hundreds and thousands, it is difficult to take out 10 gold coins at a time, let alone hundreds or thousands?
......
It didn't take long to walk to the door of the village chief, Old Man Zhou. Because the village is not big, everyone usually gathers at the door of the village chief's house if they have anything.
"Have all the people arrived?" The village chief, Uncle Zhou, saw that there were a lot of people, so he asked casually. As his name suggests, Old Man Zhou is tall, sixty or seventy years old, and he usually walks around the village twice to see how everyone's life is, because he usually helps everyone a lot, so most people still respect him. Apart from......
"Old man, what are you waiting for, hurry up, it's too late to delay me, I asked my father not to sponsor the village with walking tools. When the time comes, you won't be able to leave, and I'll see what you do. Hum. Sure enough, the village tyrant was not called for nothing. Zhou Lao only finished asking above, and Feng Qiang below didn't give face at all, his grade was not big, and his tone was not small. But at this time, the little followers next to him didn't dare to speak indiscriminately.
Usually there is nothing to do with the fox and the fake tiger, but at this time, especially the two who want to go to the city with them, they are next to them, and they dare to talk nonsense, and it is estimated that the back of the head is directly a palm.
"Shizhu, you click on it to see if there are enough people, the children should be 17. They're going to practice, you check it. "Uncle Zhou has lived a lot of age, and he doesn't get angry with a little hairy child. He pushed the stone pillar next to him and told him to check it.
"Okay village chief. The stone pillar opened.
"The village chief, all 17 children have arrived, and with the addition of their respective parents, the total number is 43. ”
Every year, some children will have two parents and even other elders will follow them to see the world. So, it's normal to go beyond that.
"Okay, it's good if there are enough people, if you go to the city, it's not better than the village, don't say much, but here, I especially want to emphasize, especially you, Xiaoqiang, it's okay for you to be domineering in the village, if you go to the city like this, it is easy to bring disaster to the village, there are many strong people in this world, and they don't understand their temperament, and if you meet someone who is not good at talking, it is easy to bring disaster to the village. So you have to pay attention. Uncle Zhou, the village head, said to Feng Qiang with a serious face.
Looking at Uncle Zhou's appearance, Feng Qiang didn't dare to contradict him, although he was domineering, but where was a child really so bold.
Uncle Zhou saw that everyone was listening quietly over there, with a worried face. Instead, he smiled.
"As long as you don't talk nonsense to contradict others, it won't be anything, don't worry, I just said Xiaoqiang's words because I encountered it when I was young, and everyone knows that our Heishui Village is just a small village, and we fled to such a small place where we were hiding in order to take refuge. Uncle Zhou was a little embarrassed at this time, time was too fast. What I encountered when I was young in the past is a little profound at this time. Whenever he wanted to send his children to the city to practice, he would tell them again and again.
"Alright, there's nothing else to say, let's go. Be careful all the way, Shizhu, I have taken you a few times in previous years, but now that people are old, I will not go this year. Take them with you. Uncle Zhou said to the stone pillar.
Then he turned back to a thin young man behind him and said, "Three dogs, you also follow the past, the stone pillar is more wooden, you are more clever, follow the past and watch." ”
"Yes, the village chief, promise to complete the task!" replied the three dogs with a straight waist. is usually not serious, but this one made those hairy children laugh all at once.
......
Heishui Village is located not far from the sea, although Xingling City is also a seaside city, but the distance from Heishui Village to Xingling City, if you take a carriage, it will take at least three to five days. Because human activities are more frequent. So it's relatively safe, but although there are no magical beasts, there are still beasts, especially wind wolves.
Wind wolves, like to live in groups, organized, not big, not much damage, but since it is called wind wolf, there must be a reason. The speed is relatively fast, the adult wind wolf, the speed is more than twice that of the adult, because it likes to live in groups, so it can be a group of three or five, and thousands of people are still gathered. If you encounter three or five dozen or so, there is a fight. But if there are hundreds of them, these people in Heishui Village can only pray that they can run as much as they can.
In the carriage, Zhou Tian's father and son talked from time to time, but Xiaobai was lying quietly on the side.
It's also weird. In the past, except for Zhou Tianhug, Xiaobai refused to hug anyone else, let alone hug, even if he touched his head, Xiaobai would grin. Even if Zhou Lihai hugged him, he refused.
Later, Zhou Ling'er hugged and struggled, and was knocked on the head by Zhou Tian a few times, and he became a lot more honest, but it was only limited to Zhou Ling'er. The others refused to hug it.
Of course, this half a year. has grown up a lot, and if you want to continue to let Zhou Tian hold it, it is impossible.
