Chapter 11: The Clay Figures on the Road

Rain, dripping.

Roads, muddy.

At the end of the road came a carriage, moving slowly, steadily, slowly on the muddy road.

The driver of the carriage was an old woman who was over half a hundred years old. The reins of the carriage were in her hands, and she did not make any movements, but the speed at which the carriage moved never changed.

I don't know if the horse is more obedient, or if this old woman has another way.

The curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted, and a cute and pretty face appeared. She narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the light rain outside the car, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Grandma Sun, how long will it take for this rain to stop?"

In the girl's heart, Grandma Sun is omniscient in front of her, and along the way, she asked Grandma Sun about many things that girls didn't understand, and Grandma Sun told her.

After listening to the girl's doubts, Granny Sun didn't make any moves, just moved her lips slightly, and said, "There is probably time for a cup of tea!"

"There's still time for a cup of tea!" the girl seemed to be very happy, and she simply came out of the carriage and sat with Grandma Sun.

The eaves of the carriage shielded them from the drizzling rain, and even if some of the rain splashed down, it was bounced off in mid-air, as if there was an invisible barrier around them.

The girl sat next to Grandma Sun, occasionally reaching out to catch the falling raindrops, but they were all separated without exception. Before the girl could say anything, Grandma Sun spoke,

"Miss, if you are weak, you should go into the carriage, don't catch a cold. ”

"Mother-in-law, I'm fine, I'm ...... I'm just stuffy in the car......" she lowered her head as she said this, looking like an aggrieved child.

Grandma Sun looked at her, her eyes revealed a kind of love, and she smiled: "Okay, Miss, you can be wherever you want, with your mother-in-law, you will be fine." ”

"Hmm...... Xiaoqiu knew that her mother-in-law would protect me. ”

Xiaoqiu was very happy, and the smile on her face was like a shy flower in the hot sun. Her beauty is a little weak, sickly, but it is this sickness that makes her feel that I feel sorry for her.

Everything around her was unfamiliar to Xiaoqiu, and she watched it very seriously, even if the scene was normal for others.

I don't know what I thought of, Xiaoqiu's expression suddenly became a little more worried, "Mother-in-law, did you say that after I go back this time, will my brother let me come out?"

"This ...... The old body doesn't dare to say anything!" Granny Sun chose to avoid this question, in fact, what the answer is, they all know it, but it will make people more sad to say it.

Xiao Qiu only showed a slightly miserable smile when she heard this answer, she looked at all this around her and wanted to remember deeply in her mind what she had experienced along the way, and what had happened, maybe there would never be such a thing in the future.

The carriage stopped suddenly, which made Xiao Qiu, who was in deep thought, stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "Mother-in-law, what's wrong?"

"There was a dead man lying on the side of the road, and I was thinking about whether to press over it. When Granny Su said this, she didn't care that there was anything wrong with doing this, she was hesitating just because she was afraid that the dead man would make the carriage bumpy.

After listening to Granny Su's words, Xiaoqiu also noticed the "dead man" who fell in the muddy water.

"Mother-in-law, is he really dead?" asked Xiaoqiu nervously.

Granny Su shook her head and said, "It's almost there, life hangs by a thread." ”

"Then let's save him!"

Xiaoqiu said that she was about to get out of the car and carry the man into the carriage, but Grandma Sun reached out to stop Xiaoqiu at this time.

"Miss, this person has eighteen knife wounds all over his body, and he is also a person in the rivers and lakes, since he is a person in the rivers and lakes, he should have expected that there would be such a day, there is no need for us to save him, this is the fate of every person in the rivers and lakes. ”

"What is the fate of everyone in the rivers and lakes...... Xiaoqiu's expression froze a little at this moment, she seemed to think of something sad, she suddenly opened her mouth and pleaded with Granny Sun, "Mother-in-law, let's save him." If we hadn't met him, Xiaoqiu wouldn't have mattered, but since he ran into us, maybe his life shouldn't have ended, so I should do some good deeds and accumulate some virtue!"

"Miss, you have done a lot of good deeds along the way, this person is ......" Grandma Sun wanted to say it, but when she saw Xiaoqiu's tearful eyes, she swallowed the words back, and she sighed: "That's it, that's it." ”

The "dead man" was carried into the car by Grandma Sun and placed next to her. Mo said that this man was covered in mud, and even if he was clean, she could not put him in the carriage, which was the place of her own young lady.

Xiaoqiu probed the clay man's breath with her hand, and only breathed a sigh of relief when her fingers noticed that the other party was still breathing weakly.

"Mother-in-law, will he really die like this? Xiaoqiu was a little scared, in her heart, how much she still hoped that she could save this person.

Grandma Sun drove the carriage with peace of mind, in fact, she didn't care about the life or death of that person at all, if he really died, she could have left him on the side of the road. It was just that after thinking of her young lady's concerned expression, she still put her hand on the pulse of the clay figure.

In an instant, however, she withdrew her finger, which was not stained with a single trace of dirt from the clay figurines.

"He can't die, he can live for a few days in this state, and as for the wound, I have already helped him stop the bleeding. ”

Xiaoqiu didn't know how Grandma Sun helped him stop the bleeding, but when Grandma Sun said this, Xiaoqiu believed it, because Grandma Sun rarely hid anything from her.

Now Xiaoqiu has a new idea, she wants to save the clay figure in front of her. She often heard people say that saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, and she thought that maybe after doing enough good things, some things could get better and better.

She is this simple idea, and she is constantly working hard for her own simple idea.

It was getting late, but the speed of the carriage was still not slowing, and Grandma Sun needed to find a place to rest before it got dark.

The broken temple seems to be never lacking, but it is the best resting place for those who are in a hurry.

Grandma Sun stopped in front of the ruined temple, and looking at the already dark sky, she decided to rest here.

"Miss, it's getting late, let's rest here!"

"Okay mother-in-law, what should he do?" Xiaoqiu asked, pointing to the clay figure still lying on the carriage.

Granny Sun pulled Xiaoqiu into the broken temple without looking back, and she didn't intend to care about the clay figure, she said: "It's enough for us to save his life, and he will ask for more blessings for other things!"

"But ......"

Xiaoqiu's words had time to finish before Grandma Sun turned around and left, she went to collect firewood, the night was colder, she knew that her young lady was weak, if she suffered from the wind cold at night, she was afraid that she would be sick again.

Just as Granny Sun turned around to collect firewood, Xiaoqiu came to the carriage, and she took out the kettle from the carriage, wanting to let the clay figure drink some water. It was also at this time that many robbers with big knives suddenly appeared around the ruined temple......
