Accompanied by the flashlight, I carried Mr. Liu on my back, followed by more than a dozen dying old people, and walked towards the outside of the timber transfer office.

I don't know where the thin clouds came from obscured the hazy moonlight, making the night darker and darker, and my heart was inexplicably sad, what can such a group of old people do? But is there only such a group of old people left in the town who dare to fight?

In the wind, an old man walking in front of me, faltering, if his descendants are also one of the black-robed people, how does he feel?

I feel that I am sentimental like a woman, but this is Chen Chengyi, I dare not call myself compassionate and compassionate, but I really don't dare to live numbly in this world, rather than being a cold-blooded high-minded, I would still prefer to be the one who often has tears in his eyes, for some things that seem inexplicable to outsiders, fighting to the point of danger, always embarrassed, making people incomprehensible and even anxious about himself.

I even remembered Lao Hui, once in front of his grave, Xiaobei talked about his past, talked about this sloppy-looking child, and is also a crying person, an abandoned child can make him red-eyed, and he never hides his emotions, Xiaobei said to me at the end: "Not crying is not necessarily a real hero, but I think a real hero is sentimental, right?" If he didn't have a sensitive and sincere heart, how could he feel the suffering of the world and die for it? I must have felt it deeply when I was old. ”

"When the kids get on the boat, there's no need to move?" The past can't be traced, in such a cold night, I stopped my thoughts, and began to desperately find the topic, I don't want such a sad and silent atmosphere to envelop this group of old people, I don't even have to guess, I know that they must have failed many times, every time they fail, maybe it is a heavy blow, I am afraid that their hearts will cool down.

"I haven't seen any children out of that cabin, I don't know why, but there must be something in there, right?" Old Man Liu replied to me, his voice was still weak, but I still didn't feel the meaning of decadence and wanting to give up.

I hummed and walked in silence until I walked out of the timber transfer office and into the streets of the town, and then I said, "I didn't come to save people, let alone to explore mysteries, solve mysteries, and then make a name for myself." I'm here for some clues from my elders, but after seeing all this tonight, I feel that saving people can be put in a more important place in my heart, I mean that even if I don't have a purpose of my own, I am willing to save people. I don't know how capable I am, but I'm just willing. Old man Liu, there are still a group of people like you in the town, I am very moved, and I didn't expect it, I just hope that you don't give up. ”

After listening to this paragraph, all the old people looked at me in surprise and emotion, but no one spoke, even the old man Liu on my back was very silent.

After a long time, he said, "Young man, are you a real Taoist, a Taoist?" ”

"Yes, I have a heritage, I am really an upright Taoist family." I walked so far alone with someone on my back, I was a little hot, and the breath I exhaled, in this cold night, turned into a white mist, but I felt a pride overflowing from my chest flowing in the mist.

"That's right, it's right to be a Taoist family member once! Once there was a Taoist priest in our town who had no skills, and he followed a mysterious man to that evil place and never came back! On weekdays, I can't see any difference between him and ordinary people, the same cautious, the same with small faults, but at a critical time, he is so heroic that I am surprised, how can a small person know how to make a righteous choice? He told me that he has the inheritance of the Taoist family and knows what the bottom line should be in the heart of the Taoist family. He had already figured out the taste in his heart, hehe" Old man Liu suddenly told me about such a person, and between three words, a vivid image was outlined in front of my eyes.

I suddenly remembered someone, and I couldn't help but say, "Are you talking about Second Master Liu in the town?" ”

"Do you know Second Master Liu?" Old Man Liu was obviously surprised.

"Well, I heard a story before I came. Coming here, in fact, I wanted to find Liu Erye's youngest son, before Liu Weijun, I thought you were! However, your name is Liu Jiwang, right? "I had already had this question in my mind, and at this time, I just said it.

"What story did you hear? What else do you know? Are you looking for the guards? In terms of seniority, I should be the second cousin of the guards, you think I am the leader, but in fact, it is always the guards who lead our group, but his situation is very bad, so he can't come tonight. "Old man Liu first asked a series of questions, but soon answered my questions, I didn't expect that he turned out to be a relative of Liu Weijun.

Uncle Ge once said that Liu Weijun is not easy to approach, but I thought of such an opportunity, it seems that finding Liu Weijun and finding the real clue is afraid that there is a fall, thinking like this, my mood tonight for the first time has a little relaxed, while carrying Old Man Liu on his back, he said: "A lot of things, I can't say it clearly now, that old man, can you take me to meet Liu Weijun first?" I'm sure I'll talk about these things. ”

"That's no problem, but it's no longer convenient to move this night, the people in this town have sent their relatives, I'm afraid it's another emotional night, you come to me tomorrow during the day, I'll take you to see the guards." While speaking, Old Man Liu suddenly seemed to react, and asked again: "Where do you live?" How could this town easily allow you to stay overnight as an outsider? ”

is worthy of being a person in the town, Old Man Liu found the key point at once, and I found out that I stayed in that place, I didn't even know who that old man was? I didn't know anything about my surname, so I could only smile bitterly, and then roughly told the old man where I lived?

After hearing this, Old Man Liu was a little silent, and only said after a while: "That's it, it doesn't matter, after all, I saw you make a move today, it's amazing!" Unlike Second Master Liu, who is a Taoist priest who has no skills, he is not afraid of what Old Man Wang will do to you, not to mention that you still have companions, come to me tomorrow! Right here, here I am. ”

While talking, we have walked a long way, and the dozen or so old people gently reminded me from time to time what way to go, and walked to an alley with 78,000 rounds, and the old man Liu pointed to an old tube building in the alley.

I took a deep look at this building, and I had to remember it, because this is where I would come tomorrow, and at the same time, I also let go of Old Man Liu.

"Except for the guards, more than a dozen of us now live in this building, because there are only us unyielding people left in the town, living together, and helping each other, you can come tomorrow." Old Man Liu looked at me and said seriously, with some inexplicable expectation in his eyes.

I nodded solemnly, and at this time, the wind blew away the dark clouds shrouded in the moon, and I saw that under the moonlight, Old Man Liu actually showed a smile of relief.

―――――――――――――――――――― dividing line―――――――――――――――――――――

It was two old men who sent me back to my place, they were very silent, and they didn't want to talk about many things, but a brief conversation also let me know that the owner of this place I lived in was surnamed Wang.

"His name is Wang Xiangjun, and once one of his sons and daughters was chosen at the same time and sent to that evil place." This is what one of the old men said to me, and it was very brief, but it said a lot in one sentence.

It reminds me of the old man's room before I left, and there were a few photos of the old man's wife and children in addition to the strange skeleton in the room, and now I am sure that the photos are really his wife and children!

I didn't see his wife, I was just inexplicably angry in my heart, why was the child sent away, life and death unknown, he could still be called a numb one in the town?

Thinking like this, we have walked to the gate of the courtyard, the two old men seemed to have some scruples, said goodbye to me, and left in a hurry, looking at their backs, I suddenly remembered a sentence, it was the old man Liu who said to me when he was leaving, what is sending relatives today, and the people in the town are a little excited?

With full doubts, I pushed open the gate of the courtyard, and as soon as there was a movement, I saw Ruxue and Brother Chengxin running out of the house.

"Seiichi!" Brother Chengxin was a little excited, called my name, rushed over, grabbed me, and then looked at me strangely, it must be very strange why I was wearing such a strange cloak.

And Ruyue also came over, with an expression of 'the rest of my life after the catastrophe', and at the same time grabbed me.

Looking at them, I was full of words to say, but at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the town, and in the middle of the night, it was extremely harsh.

Brother Chengxin and Ruyue looked at each other, obviously not understanding what was going on in the town in the middle of the night? It was like a happy event, but before he could speak, he heard the faint shouts of the people, and at the same time, I don't know who lit a string of firecrackers in the town, crackling and exploding in the night.

I sighed helplessly, but Brother Chengxin looked at me and said, "What's wrong?" Is it the kind of apocalypse in the movie, where the corpses in the town have changed? Or am I remembering the wrong day, but it's actually the Spring Festival? ”

Hearing Brother Chengxin's words, Ruyue laughed out loud, but I said helplessly: "I'm afraid I know what emotional instability is!" ”
