On the border of Chudi, there is a small city by the sea, and there is a small tavern in the city, and every twilight, it must be full of guests and friends, and it is very lively.

There is a storyteller in the tavern, with white hair and a lupine scarf, dressed as a Confucian scholar. His eyes seemed to be perceptive and all-encompassing, majestic but faintly sad and melancholy, his voice was gentle and calm, but it was tired.

"Smack-"

The waking wood was crisp, the hall was full of applause, and the storyteller stroked his long beard with his hand, and his expression seemed to be smiling rather than smiling.

"The height of the uplift, the height of the drill. Look ahead, ignore behind. The Master is so good and seductive that I think that I will be courteous, but I can't ...... if I want to stop."

When the storyteller finished speaking, he got up and left his seat, leaving a hall full of confused people and walking out of the tavern alone.

Time passed quietly, the toad hung high, and the stars filled the sky.

The storyteller walked alone in the streets, his thin clothes blown by the cold wind.

In the dark corner, a figure stood quietly, and the storyteller walked to it, sighing slightly.

"I have said that I have been on the battlefield of the frontier, and I have exhausted the happy rivers and lakes, but I only have a childish heart, which is always unbearable to mention. Anyway, today's accidental sense, I am approaching, I can't bear to let him, and also with me to disappear in the void wasteland, so I will say to you to listen, so that people can remember, there was such a number one person in heaven and earth. ”

"Weak and alone, with the body of an ant, it is strong to shake the heavens and the earth......"

The storyteller sighed again, and his gaze crossed the town and drifted to the distant sea. The vicissitudes of life came out of his mouth and drifted away in the cold wind.

......

Tianshui Peak, located in the southwest of the east-flowing waters, is surrounded by the vast sea, as far as the eye can see. The mountain peaks rise abruptly from the bottom of the sea, like a giant sword inserted into the bottom of the sea, and the hilt of the sword reaches into the sky, which is unattainable.

The peak wall rock is pure black, smooth as a mirror, hard and inexplicable, and the non-gold stone can be broken and damaged.

There is a small village under Tianshui Peak, called Tianhao. Relying on Tianshui Peak to build, the folk customs are simple and isolated. Most of the villagers live by fishing and farming, and are self-sufficient.

Lin Yun sat on the edge of a cliff several meters high and looked at the horizon with a gloomy and expectant face, his feet dangling back and forth, and the vast blue sea was under him.

It's autumn dusk, the trees and flowers on the island are already dyed pale, and the sunset is shining on the sea, painting a gorgeous and spectacular scene.

Facing the red sun that was about to set, in the glow, small fishing boats appeared at the end of Lin Yun's field of vision. Suddenly, the previous gloom was swept away, and a touch of joy emerged from his eyes.

Lin Yun stood up, his not too strong body jumped high, he was in the air, his arms were stretched out and waved, and his mouth let out bursts of loud shouts at the same time, and a smile spread on his face.

He turned around and ran towards the ferry, his father and eldest brother constantly swirling in his head.

"That's right, mother. ”

Lin Yun's feet stopped as he ran, "Daddy and eldest brother should tell their mother as soon as possible when they come back, so that she doesn't have to worry anymore." ”

Thinking so, the man had already turned around and ran towards the village.

A month ago, my father, my eldest brother, and some people in the village went out to sea, but they didn't want to go, but they were heard from and nowhere to be found. For this reason, the village chief summoned several strong men left behind in the village to go out to look for them, but even these people never returned.

In this way, the number of ships that could be dispatched had already exceeded the original number of ships that had gone to sea, and gradually, everyone began to retreat in their hearts, thinking that these people must have encountered some accident. After all, living at sea all year round, shipwrecks often occur, and eating this bowl of rice already has this mental preparation.

They gave up looking for them with great difficulty, and although everyone had reluctance and grief in their hearts, the rest of the village still needed to live and be guarded.

But this is unacceptable to Lin Yun, whenever he thinks of being reprimanded by his father and being teased by his eldest brother, although he was angry at the time, and even rebellious, he thought that he would never see them again, and he would never hear their voices again. No matter the gentleness, the sternness, the ridicule, the pictures of the past are swept through his mind one by one, one by one, his heart is like thousands of ants scratching, not numb, but the kind of nowhere to focus, but with endless sadness and sourness.

He didn't want to give up, even if everyone thought that something had happened to them, as long as the bones were not seen for a day, there was still a glimmer of hope. Therefore, he waited at the highest point of the village day after day, always looking into the distance, looking forward to the return of his father and brother.

"No, my father and eldest brother won't just leave like that, they are so tall and powerful, what can happen in the world that is difficult for them. ”

In the past month, whenever Lin Yun felt that his hope was getting slimmer and slimmer, he always motivated himself like this. In his mind, his father and eldest brother are like gods.

In the blink of an eye, I was already in front of my own courtyard, which was a simple farm yard, no different from the other houses around. The courtyard walls were replaced with sparse fences, swearing sovereignty to outsiders. Three or two houses were repaired side by side, although simple, but also clean and tidy, and a small patch of flowers and plants was planted in front of the house.

The courtyard door was ajar, and a little girl of eight or nine years old blinked a pair of smart eyes, and among the flowers and plants, stretched out her pink little hands to tease, and from time to time there was a milky voice and a milky smile. With that delicate look, people couldn't help but want to pinch her face a few times. A middle-aged woman sat beside her, with a smile on her face, but a heavy gloom hidden in her eyes.

"Mother, my father and my eldest brother are back. ”

Lin Yun gasped and almost crashed into the door, his face full of excitement and joy.

“...... What?"

"I saw their boat, they came back. ”

Lin Yun said, realizing that his voice was a little choked. Seeing that the mother was still squatting on the ground blankly, tears had already burst out of her eyes.

"We went to pick them up, took them home. ”

Lin Yun took a few steps forward and helped his mother up from the ground. Mother's heart is weak, during this time, worried about my father and eldest brother, I don't know how many tears I secretly shed, and when I heard them come back, I was at a loss for a while.

"Second Brother ......"

The little girl who was originally teasing the flowers and plants turned her head, saw Lin Yun, let out a coquettish cry, and rushed over. Seeing his sister pounce, Lin Yun opened his arms and let her get into his arms smoothly, and her neck was hooked by her white and tender arms.

"The second brother is so bad, he even ignored Xin'er for so many days, and Xin'er will never give the second brother lotus seeds to eat in the future. ”

The little girl, that is, Lin Xin pretended to be angry, puffed out her cheeks, raised her small mouth, and said angrily.

Lin Yun smiled, his father and eldest brother did not know their life and death, their whereabouts were unknown, and they were anxious and uncomfortable, in the past month, they were indeed much colder to Xin'er, no wonder she complained at such a young age.

Responding to his own fault, he picked up his sister, apologized to her, and took his mother to the ferry.

When they came to the ferry, there were already a lot of people gathered here, and they all heard the news, and everyone had a look of excitement and joy on their faces. On the ships that are getting bigger and closer, there are also their relatives.

In the expectation of Lin Yun's eyes, the small boats were getting closer and closer, but Lin Yun's hearts gradually cooled, and uneasy thoughts began to spread, enveloping them.

This uneasiness became more and more intense as the small boats sailed into the ferry one after another.

Silence, dead silence, everyone was silent, and no one rushed forward, for they did not see a single figure on these ships.

The sky gradually darkened, and Lin Yun felt that his eyes were also starting to become dim. His throat was a little dry, and he swallowed hard. Handed over the sister in his arms to his mother, and went to the docked boats first.

Lin Yun's eyes were sour, and in his blurred vision, on the deck of his own ship, a touch of dark red was soaked in the rain.

Lin Yun's heart was beating wildly, and his eyes were red, as if something was about to leave him.

He walked slowly across the deck and stood at the small doorway of the cabin, where a thick smell of blood and corruption filled his mouth and nose, making him dizzy.

In the small cabin, there were two corpses lying horizontally, with a long gash from the Adam's apple to the lower abdomen. The wound was not neat, as if it had been split with an axe. All the internal organs inside were dug out and became empty. It was filled with blood, and in the midst of that blood, small fish rolled their eyes and spat bubbles. The corpses were in tatters, the pus of carrion spread out beneath them, and countless white maggots wriggled wildly, greedily feasting on the feast.

"Who are they?"

Lin Yun's head buzzed, but his heart was no longer flustered, but gradually calmed down. Fear, fear did not come as expected, sadness, pain seemed to disappear.

Lin Yun knelt down, tears streaming from his closed eyes.

"Daddy......"

"Brother......

"The child is ...... father"

A cry of sorrow came from the ship beside him, Lin Yun's thoughts were numb, and the sadness pressed in his chest was guided by this wail, surging up like a volcanic eruption, and mouthfuls of blood spurted out of his mouth.

After squirting a few mouthfuls of blood, Lin Yun's face turned pale, and his body that fell to the ground began to sway, and the whole person looked decadent.

"Ah, mother, Xin'er is afraid ......"

Xiao Lin Xin's shout made Lin Yun's shriveled heart suddenly froze, and he looked back at him with a spirit. At some point, his mother was already standing behind him with his sister in her arms.

"......" is like a child who has been caught by his parents and has done something bad, Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he quickly wiped away his tears and stood up, blocking in front of the corpse, not letting his mother and sister see it, looking a little flustered.

"Mother, father...... The eldest brother didn't come back, so let's go to another boat and ask to see if they were delayed for something......"

Lin Yun didn't know what he was talking about for a while, and after reacting, he was also stunned. The two corpses in front of him, although their clothes were tattered and their faces were unrecognizable, but for him, his mother, how could two people who were so familiar not recognize them.

Lin Xin was still crying, obviously frightened. Lin Yun looked at her mother with red eyes, her mother didn't cry out like others, her gaze crossed Lin Yun's tall head and stared behind him, Lin Yun's heart suddenly chuckled.

He knows what kind of person his mother is, at this time she may have no idea, and his sister is still young, this family, there are still living people, it used to be his father and brother who supported this family, so they are gone, he can't let this family collapse.

"Mother, let's go out first, right?"

After Lin Yun finished speaking, he took his sister and hugged him, and then pulled his mother out of the cabin.
