The sun finally rose, and the old locust tree at the entrance of the village glowed with the color of broken gold.
Qin Mu drilled out of the house, the house made of low mud walls was full of devastation, last night the wind was blowing, blowing from north to south, from east to west, there was no dawn, there was no dawn, and the ears were full of the whistling sound of the wind, like a whimpering female ghost, which made people tremble.
He didn't sleep much last night, staring at the dawn, he didn't know what to say about others, anyway, Yu Xiu's bed board was creaking and thinking all night - this thing was very restless and tossing and turning on the bed, but Qin Mu couldn't bear to fall asleep when it was almost dawn, and it was already bright outside when he woke up again.
The November sun shows its gold and warmth everywhere.
Qin Mu stretched his arms and took a long breath, looked up and saw the blue sky, a trace of flowing clouds floating leisurely in the air, and suddenly sobered up a lot. Lisuo lowered his head and stood with his back to Qin Mu beside the old locust tree, Qin Mu walked up to him and heard him talking to himself.
"I was only 8 years old in the fire that year, the whole Ning family was in chaos, my ears were full of the shouts of women and children, my eyes were full of blood and tears around me, he held me in his arms, and rushed out of the Ning family, the fire was like a fire dragon, and it was a conscious fire dragon, the dragon head of the fire dragon ate the head of the Ning family, the dragon's tail ignited the old house of the Ning family, people ran away in panic regardless of it, I was just a slave cub who was sold over, when I was lost in the crowd, he fled with me regardless of it."
Who is he in Lisuo's mouth, Qin Mu can probably guess, only to see the emaciated figure slowly turn around, there is no expression on his face, as if he is telling an insignificant matter, from the eyes that are like a lake, Qin Mu can see that the lake is trembling gently, as if it may overflow at any time.
"Later, I learned that he was stimulated by the catastrophe that day, and he regarded me as his child who had been dead for many years, but even so, he was the one who saved my life." Lisuo said this, his face was already full of tears.
He looked at his calloused hands: "But today is the last ride I personally sent him, Qin Mu, did I do the right thing?" ”
Qin Mu didn't answer, because there was no answer to this matter.
I thought that Lisuo was Yu Xiu's informant, but now that I heard this from Lisuo's mouth, Qin Mu also felt a little uncomfortable, it turned out that he was trafficked here, no wonder the accent would be different, some things were already ingrained in childhood, even if they were brought in such a place for fifteen years, they would not change.
Lisuo's proposal yesterday did not get everyone's consent after all, instead of trying to make it look like suicide, it is better to let the old man die at the door of the house, what is the difference between dying in the house and dying outside the house? He left after eating Lisuo's wild boar, and the villagers who didn't have yin and yang eyes would never believe that the person's soul was gone, and Yu Xiu also gave up his suspicion of Lisuo after Qin Mu opened his mouth.
At that time, Zhao Laoshi jokingly said that it is said that after death, he will be buried under the locust tree and can be resurrected the next day. This kind of nonsense came out of Zhao Laoshi's mouth, which directly led to Yu Xiu and Qin Mu's insomnia.
At this time, Zhao Laoshi and Yu Xiu had already come out of the room one after another, Yu Nanyi went out for a walk early in the morning, it seemed that the death of the old man yesterday had no effect on him, and the group, this thing slept the sweetest not to mention, and he exercised early in the morning as usual.
However, when Zhao Laoshi and Yu Xiu stretched their waists and walked under the old locust tree, Yu Nan's stumbling figure came from a distance, this country road is not as good as the city, it will not be a faction of Pingyan, this thing has been beaten along the way Not to say, even after rolling and crawling to Qin Mu's feet, he couldn't even say a word, his face was full of horror, and his lips were white.
Qin Mu slowly stroked Yu Nan's back with his palm, he held spiritual power in his hand, and the blue spiritual power was injected into the other party's back little by little through his hand, soothing the other party's heart, Yu Nan calmed down, but still knotted his tongue: "Out...... Have an accident...... ......"
He only squeezed out these few words, and he felt that his throat was like a knife, Yu Nan's eyes widened as much as he could, trying to restrain the fear in his heart, if these little friends didn't even know what was going on in this village, then how would they deal with the rest of the matter, thinking of the sores and wounds full of scars and wounds, the blood and stumps on the black earth, Yu Nan closed his eyes, and under Qin Mu's reassuring hands, he recovered a little, he tried hard to squeeze out the remaining words, and reduced the number of words as much as possible: "The village ...... Dead ......"
What do you mean? Several people glanced at each other, Lisuo was contemplative, and the others were all inexplicable, Zhao Laoshi couldn't see Yu Nan's cowardice, originally took Yu Nan to be afraid that Yu Nan would also be hunted down and killed inexplicably in Ningcheng, although this guy is Yu Xiu's cousin, but in the end, he is a doctor, and it still has a little effect when necessary, but when Qin Mu came, Yu Nan's role was far less than it was at the beginning.
"Can you speak well and finish the story?" Such intermittent and without any warning made Zhao Laoshi's heart start from the fire, this little temper and big voice can never be changed, but it depends on who is facing, if he faces Qin Mu, he will definitely be pinched, but he is facing a Yu Nan whose combat power is weakened to the extreme, so after Zhao Laoshi roared, Yu Nan fainted from exhaustion.
Zhao Laoshi scratched his head, a little afraid to look at Yu Xiu's angry little eyes, and consciously hugged a princess in Nan, and he didn't dare to look at the picture directly, but fortunately, Zhao Laoshi was strong and strong, and his skin was thick, or Yu Nan's body was light, Zhao Laoshi directly hugged the princess back to the house, Yu Xiu and Qin Mu were stunned for a while.
"What do you mean?" Yu Xiu was stunned for a long time, and then said a word to Qin Mu.
"What does it mean that the village is dead, this thing is scared like this, a doctor is scared like this, and he doesn't see much when he is dissected in the morgue? On weekdays, I know how bold he is to boast about how bold he is, this is boldness? As soon as Yu Xiu thought of it, he hated that iron could not become steel, and he said a lot in one breath, without panting.
"What do you think?" Qin Mu looked at Lisuo, who had been silent, and asked softly.
Lisuo seemed to be still immersed in the old man's departure and couldn't extricate himself, and after Qin Mu asked softly, he raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Mu, and didn't say anything, just silently led the way and walked in the direction that Yu Nan ran all the way over.
The ground is a little potholed, a typical rural ground, the road is also paved with some oval pebbles, a little padding, otherwise the red soil all over Ningcheng will be muddy after the heavy rain, once the sun is out, the road is pressed by the car What will always be the same, the potholes are miserable, and even the knife can not be carved after being exposed to the sun.
Such a land is suitable for growing oranges, so all the way there are orange trees, or varieties of oranges and other things, what throwing (homonym, the specific word is not clear, sour, as big as a grapefruit), grapefruit, gourd orange, water tumor (water tumor, homonym, big as an orange, extremely sour, pregnant women's favorite) and a series of orange variations are all over the ground.
These things were extremely precious in the years of famine when the country was founded, but now they are becoming less and less valuable, and no one wants many grapefruits, even if they rot in the ground.
The houses in the village are not all next to each other, but a cluster here, a cluster there, Lisuo and the old man's house are in one place, and further on, it will be through a small lake and a pomelo forest to see the second family, Qin Mu smelled a strange smell from afar, and when he looked up, he only felt red.
"Is this year's red soil dyed? Why is it that even the lake is red? Lisuo looked around and said lightly.
============ about the question of Lisuo accent, here is a word about it, when I was 8 years old, I was trafficked here by traffickers, and some people will ask why I haven't changed my accent for 15 years, which I don't know, just like me, I came back from Xinjiang when I was 12 years old, I stayed in Hunan for 13 years, I still only speak Mandarin, I can speak Hunanese, but I rarely speak, but I can understand. Some things, once soaked in the bone marrow, are deeply ingrained and difficult to change.
