Volume 1 Journey to the World Chapter 51 In those cold days

After helping Dao Xisheng wipe away his tears, he found that the person in front of him was a little strange, I don't know when, the slug who used to be unable to afford to lose anything has become a little tall and handsome, but no one will see him as a teenager who has grown up, and his every move really looks like a young and ignorant little gay.

Pure, clean and spotlessly clean.

This is the child.

But all children have to grow up to be teenagers, so Xu Yu can't always treat him as a little brother behind his ass.

This time, he didn't try to comfort him again, just slowly straightened his waist, and then straightened his messy hair.

"Do you really, really don't remember me?" asked Xu Yu reluctantly.

Until he comes up with a satisfactory answer, he must not give up.

"Big brother, I really don't know you, I've completely forgotten what happened before. This time, Dao Xisheng finally answered Xu Yan's question directly, which undoubtedly poured half a bucket of cold water directly on Xu Yan, who still had hope.

But none of this matters, after all, it can't prevent the freaks from reuniting after a long absence.

Like the pull of fate, the thread of cause and effect between Xu Yu and Dao Xisheng may be forced to separate for various reasons, but in the end, they are often entangled again.

Dao Xisheng, who has been baptized by the long river of the Great Dao, seems to have changed, but it seems to have not changed.

Xu Yu's thoughts soon seemed to drift to the clouds, and he remembered that long, long time ago.

The two kids thing.

........................

The winter of that year was cold and frozen, and they met in a cold snow, but not romantic, but the pain of paralysis.

In order to keep his father from going hungry and have the strength to live the rest of the day, he would appear in every corner of the small city every day to look for food and continue his father's meager life.

Every winter at that time seemed like the last season of his life, because at this season, his father's cough became worse when he was sick in bed, and there was no warm clothing, no fruit to be picked secretly, and snow that fell all the time, like goose feathers that would not stop in the near future, would exacerbate their suffering, and make their two flies and dogs gradually lose hope of surviving in the world.

As the saying goes, the cheaper the life, the easier it is to live, and these two cheap lives have survived one cold winter after another in this harsh environment, and they have never been completely destroyed by the oppression of survival.

In this way, this family of two, who was so broken and dilapidated that they couldn't be repaired, spent nearly five spring and autumn seasons.

In the past five years, Xu Yu never thought that father and son would be able to live through tomorrow, but the days passed day after day, year after year.

It was also in this way that the unrealistic idea gradually arose in Xu Yu's heart - will the woman who married into a rich family and left behind their father and son suddenly come back one day, it is best to bring a lot of silver taels, it is really not good, and the copper plate is also good.

Xu Yu has never had the slightest resentment against the woman with a blurred face in his memory, he knows that everyone has a time when they can't choose, in this world where only a strong man can support a family, there is no man who can work normally, and this family will collapse early.

I know that she really loves her father, otherwise he would not have woven and dressed day and night, leaving all the valuable treasures on his body before leaving.

It's life that tears them apart, and I often think like this.

In this life, I will probably never forget my mother's beautiful face when I was born.

What ruined the family was actually this father who lay in the hospital bed every day and was about to fall unconscious, and it was his weak illness that he had exchanged for day and night of alcoholism.

But he can't let him die, the reason is very simple, he is his last relative in this world, and he wants to do his best to let him live.

After this winter, Su's father finally left this world, and Suyu had imagined in his head countless times how he would feel after his father's death, and it must have been a relief.

But when the day actually came, he was still so sad that he could not move in bed, and when he knew that he was about to starve to death, he dragged his weak body like a walking corpse and went out to find some discarded scraps to fill his already "cooing" belly.

Just a few days ago, he had heard that the Emperor of the Imperial Palace had sent several luxurious carriages to pick up one of the future concubines in this remote town.

Hearing that the carriage was full of some precious soft goods, he suddenly became ill-intentioned, and wanted to secretly fish out a sum of oil and water to survive this winter that was probably unbearable.

The young man had already done too many adventurous things, and now he was not short of this one, so he quickly arrived at the gate of the small city and quietly waited for the arrival of the convoy in the palace.

Xu Yu has always had the courage and strength that he does not have at this age, and he will always be the shortest and most energetic among the crowds of refugees who pick up the remnants, in fact, he will pour all the leftovers he has snatched into the stomach of his uncompetitive father every time, and then lick the residue powder that the man can't eat, even so, he doesn't feel it every day.

This is a strange physique, but he is too young to pay attention to these things, he only feels that his father's body is not quite the same, one is like the sky, and the other is like the earth.

He didn't know how long he waited in a corner until he fell asleep and was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves.

The chariots and horses finally came, and at the same time, Xu Yu was so shocked that he couldn't take his eyes off it, it was the first time in his life that he had seen heavy horses, but he was still an elite belonging to the royal family.

The cavalrymen's dark silver armor like works of art was so peerless under the countless glorious reflections, and the cavalrymen who held the dark iron cast all exuded a bright light like the sun at this moment, and wherever they went, all the chariots and horses would give way with a shudder of submission.

This is the majesty of the cavalry, which from that moment on, it will forever be deeply imprinted in Xu's life, and he will never forget.

He knew that it was impossible for him to get even half a step close to the carriages by his own strength, and in fact there were some people who had been driven mad by poverty to lift up their rags and rush up, and he saw them all in half at last and then be ruthlessly thrown to the ground like garbage.

At last, the cavalrymen finally received the concubines they wanted, and then went out of the city gate with great noise, and at the last moment, Xu Yu looked back at the carriage of the convoy like a star-studded moon, and the woman in the carriage gently opened the curtain made of jade beads, as if she wanted to keep the small city that gave birth to her and raised her in her memory.

The woman showed her true face, and her gaze seemed to meet for a moment, and it seemed like she had missed it.

Suddenly, a lot of sand seemed to fly into his eyes, and the hot liquid soon covered almost half of his face, and the woman's face, which had turned a thousand times in his dreams, was now finally able to be seen, and it was only one last glimpse.

It was her mother's face, the so-called concubine, it was his former mother, although the woman's face now has expensive red makeup, but it will not affect Xu Xuan's judgment in the slightest.

Her mother was going to the palace, leaving him and a father who had been completely ruined.

He used to think about it every day and night, and he insisted on waiting for A-Niang, she would never come back.

She will become the cloud and the phoenix on the horizon, and he will always be just the loach that struggles repeatedly in the mud.

The day when the mother and son meet again, I am afraid that it will be indefinite, and then a few days later, the father who has been carefully provided for him also left, he wants to die, but the animal survival instinct that has been cultivated for so many years tells him that when he is hungry, he should look for food, even if it is a mustard, he must take root tenaciously and then live.

....................................

On this sad and desperate day, Su Yu finally gave up on death and began to come out in search of food, and then he ran into the child.

The child was about his age, but he was dressed in a robe that looked very rich. The child's face was as white as the blood on the ground, and he looked a little noble, like the daughter of a noble family.

This looks like a young man, but at this time, he is doing something that he has never done before.

He was eating a filthy corpse covered with flies, and he was eating it with relish, like a delicious dish.

Sudan didn't bother him, but quietly watched him finish eating, and finally watched him scrub the blood off his face with the help of the snow on the ground, and then the boy noticed Suzu.

He greeted Su Yu with a blank face, and invited him to eat with him: "This is my thing, do you want to eat it? ”

The boy seemed to be talking about something very common, and all of this could make Su's stomach feel a pang of tension after eating countless dirty things.

Xu Leng stayed in place for a long time before he came up with a sentence that could be considered a close sentence: "Did your family also throw you away?"

The boy thought for a moment and then replied, "I am an illegitimate child, and I hate that family and all the people in that house." ”

"Maybe I've always been redundant, so I escaped by myself, and I've finally lived happily these days, but my stomach is a little overfilled, but now I can fill it. As if no one had spoken for a long time, the boy talked about himself as if he could talk for three days and three nights.

Xu Yu listened to the boy very calmly, and without sympathy, without pity, took his hand and walked towards his tattered home.

So two lonely boys, holding hands with each other, walked slowly in the snow on a moonlit night, like two seriously injured young beasts.

In this seemingly peaceful world, there are too many people who are not peaceful.
