Rebirth one way to the north

That night, grandma slept on a kang with two children and a cat. The earthen kang built by the family was spacious and covered with a thick cotton mattress, which was comfortable and warm.Grandma sleeps on the outermost side, and Mo Bei is next to grandma - he is determined not to give up this position to Xia Duo, and there is a little cat between Mo Bei and Xia Duo.

I don't know if Xia Duo's parents had expected that the child would talk too much, so they named him this name. After turning off the lights, he was still chatting with his grandma.Grandma also loves to chat with him. First, she talked about Mo Bei's siblings when they were young, then how Mo Bei's parents met, and then they all talked about grandma's childhood life.

Mo Bei listened silently. He also loved hearing about grandma's memories.Scenes of the past, narrated by the old man lightly, are really like black and white films that have been frozen frame after frame. It seems that the smell of dust can be smelled from the nose, and the quietness has elongated the years.

Xia Duo giggled and laughed softly: "Uncle and grandpa can also climb trees, and I also like to climb trees. Someday I will ask my uncle and grandpa for advice."

Mo Bei thought: thick-skinned, that's my uncle and grandpa!

Grandma also laughed softly: "Your uncle and grandpa are over 60 years old, and their arms and legs can't climb trees. Don't tell him about climbing trees. He is very competitive. He will really compete with you when he is in a hurry." , hang on a tree and never come down."

Mo Bei: ...

Xia Duo: "Grandma, grandma, I can also climb walls. Just the kind of low wall used by firefighters for training. I can jump over it with just one hand. It's two meters high."

Mo Bei: Shameless, that's my grandma!

Grandma praised: "My good grandson is amazing!"

Mo Bei: ...

Mo Bei turned over depressedly, the crushed kitten meowed, Xia Duo pulled it out from under Mo Bei's stomach, and warned in a low voice: "Shh, Beibei is asleep, don't wake him up." The cat meowed aggrievedly.

Grandma stretched out her hand to adjust Mo Bei's sleeping position so that Xia Duo would not be squeezed against the wall, and said, "As soon as Xiao Bei fell asleep, he wouldn't wake up even when there was a thunderstorm. At that time, he was less than six years old. He came to live for a few days, and it happened that there was an earthquake one night..."

Xia Duo was surprised: "Huh? Is there still an earthquake here?"

Grandma comforted: "It hasn't been shaken once for many years, and it's like sneezing." That night, oh, it can't be said to be night, the sky is almost dawn, it must be past four o'clock Right. I’m old and sleepy. I just got up to make breakfast for them. Suddenly, I felt dust falling from the beams of the house, and my feet trembled. I knew it was an earthquake. I ran to the yard and saw that the children were all I’m still in the house, so I’m in a hurry. Your uncle saw me from the window in his room, and he yelled: ‘Mom, don’t come in!’ I thought, how could I not go in? My children are all there In the house. I ran into his room, thinking about it while running, why doesn’t the child come out after he wakes up?”

Xia Duo also asked: "Ah, why doesn't he come out?"

Grandma was funny and annoyed: "I went into the room and saw that this foolish child was still putting on clothes layer by layer! He was still looking for socks when he was on the verge of escaping! Ouch, I'm so angry! You said He usually runs around the yard wearing shorts no matter what the weather is. It must have been an earthquake. He is very particular. I quickly carried him out. Xiaobei was also carried out by his father, and his mother led him Elder sister, and your aunt, nothing else, she held her piggy bank firmly. In fact, it only took a while to shake, and when everyone came out of the yard, it stopped wobbling. But We didn't dare to go into the house, what if the house shook again? We just waited in the yard. Everyone was in fear, and Xiaojie was so frightened that she burst into tears. Xiaobei was in his father's arms Sleeping soundly, with two bare feet, his mother was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she had to go into the house and take out all the clothes and shoes. At that time, I thought, what if Xiaobei's mother went into the house to get the clothes, it would be shocking again. It was still a big earthquake, so what should we do? Fortunately, nothing happened. His mother put all the clothes on for Xiao Bei, and he still hadn’t woken up. Later, it was dawn and everything was fine, so we all went back to the house. Put Xiaobei on the kang, he hummed twice like a pig, and he still hasn't woken up!"

Xia Duo covered his mouth and laughed softly. Mo Bei could feel his whole body trembling when he was beside him. Mo Bei really couldn't understand the point of the smile.

Grandma lowered her voice as she spoke, snoring slightly.Xia Duo was also quiet, and Mo Bei thought he was asleep and was thinking about his own thoughts, when he suddenly heard Xia Duo sighed in a low voice.

The next morning, Mo Bei opened his eyes and saw Xia Duo sleeping on his back with his hands and feet spread out, and the kitten was sleeping soundly on his neck.

Mo Bei got up and washed up. When he came back, Xia Duo was making the quilt, and the kitten moved softly with his movements, making inquiring meowing sounds from time to time.Seeing Mo Bei approaching, the kitten also leaned over to the edge of the kang, stretched out a small paw to reach Mo Bei, but couldn't reach it once, or twice... The kitten jumped hard!Mo Bei had no choice but to hug the persistent cat, and the kitten climbed onto his shoulder.

Xia Duo was very jealous: "I bathed it, fed it, and cuddled it to sleep all night, why did it kiss you?"

Mo Bei said, "Don't talk to me if you haven't brushed your teeth."

Xia Duo covered his face and wept: "I'm so ashamed, I'm ashamed to see people!"

Mo Bei laughed, the cold air in the morning was already refreshing, and Xia Duo made him smile, and the suffocation accumulated in his chest dissipated a lot.Xia Duo saw him smiling through his fingers, and suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, and ran out bouncing before Mo Bei got angry.

The kitten stuck out its tongue and licked Mo Bei's chin, Mo Bei frowned and took it away: "You didn't brush your teeth..."

Kitten: "Meow?"

Xia Duo said that he went home to get his schoolbag, but he actually kidnapped Mo Bei to go out to play.Mo Bei didn't want to go at first, but he couldn't stand Xia Duo's pestering, so he put on a cotton monkey and wrapped himself up tightly and left with Xia Duo.

Down jackets were not popular in this day and age. Xia Duo’s was brought back by his mother when she went to perform in Japan. The padded jacket that Mo Bei wore was made by his grandma. It was thick enough to keep warm, but the problem was that it looked like a suit after wearing it. After entering the shell, it is very difficult to move the hands and feet.So Mo Bei walked slowly and moved slowly, Xia Duo bounced and walked ahead, stopping from time to time to look at Mo Bei and laugh for a while.

The exhaled breath made the eyebrows and eyelashes condensed with hoarfrost, and through the hoarfrost on the eyelashes, the world was decorated with hazy lace.At this time, people in a hurry were either rushing to work or going to school, and Mo Bei felt that he was out of place walking among them.

Xia Duo bounced back again, took Mo Bei's hand and walked forward: "The snow in front is already stepped on, but it's slippery, don't fall."

Mo Bei asked, "Where are we going?"

Xia Duo winked at him: "Take you to a fun place. I've never taken anyone else before, brother, how are you?"

Mo Bei said, "I won't go if it's too far away."

Xia Duo hurriedly said, "It's not far, it's quite close, really." After thinking for a while, he added, "If you get tired from walking, I'll carry you on my back."

Mo Bei was really embarrassed to let a twelve or thirteen-year-old child carry him on his back, so he could only move like a penguin.

Xia Duo said: "How about I sing to you?" He cleared his throat and sang loudly, "You are like a fire in that winter, the blazing flame warms my heart, every time when you quietly Come near me, the firelight illuminates me! Your big eyes are bright and shining, like the brightest star in the sky..."

In the Spring Festival Gala of 87, the handsome and handsome Fei Xiang became famous all over the country with his song "A Fire in Winter", and by the way, Daxing'an Mountains were burned down... Well, no one would think of such a coincidence.Until Mo Bei's rebirth, Fei Xiang was still active in the entertainment industry. Although Mo Bei didn't pay much attention to him, every time he saw related interviews and performances, he would inevitably be called by Fei Xiang. I have to admit that he is The kind of man who becomes more and more attractive as he ages.

Xia Duo sang and danced, causing everyone on the street to look at him, but he didn't care.

Mo Bei guessed that Xia Duo would take him to a park or some kind of game hall. Otherwise, what else could attract an active child?

Halfway there, Xia Duo took off his hat because he thought it was too hot, white steam was coming from the top of his head.Mo Bei hurriedly asked him to put on the hat: "What should I do if I have a cold?" Xia Duo wiped his sweat with a smile and put on the hat.Mo Bei murmured in his heart: The idiot has a lot of firepower.

When Mo Bei's legs were sore from walking, the two of them had already reached Chongyang Road.Chongyang Road is a relatively remote place in Yunbian. The Japanese army stationed here in the early years, and the barracks left behind were later converted into a work-study school. There are also birch forests, Yudai River, fields and small hills around.There are several factories nearby, and most of the residents work in the factories.At this time, Chongyang Road is quiet except for the roar of the machines in the factory, and there are almost no people wandering outside.

"Are you there yet?" Mo Bei was really tired.

"It's here." Xia Duo pointed to the front, "Did you see that little white building?"

Mo Bei stopped and looked around. On the edge of the birch forest, a two-story building was lined with weeds and dead branches. The mottled walls could barely be seen to have been painted with a layer of white ash. It was probably an old building left over from the Japanese Puppet period. Grass grew on the roof of the house.

"Just here?" Mo Bei was surprised.

Xia Duo walked in front, breaking off the dead branches of the half-person-high bushes on the ground, so that Mo Bei behind could pass through. "It is said that this place is haunted by ghosts. A few years ago, a few half-grown children came here to play. They didn't know what they saw, but they were scared to death."

Mo Bei was puzzled: "Are you going to take me to see ghosts? Then you should come at night, right?"

Xia Duo turned back and smiled: "I know you are brave and not afraid of this. In fact, I have heard of ghosts but never seen them anyway."

The gate of Xiaobailou was locked with rusty iron chains and large iron locks, and the windows on the four walls had long since lost their glass. .Mo Bei was wondering if he could climb in through the window with his current size, when Xia Duo took out the key...

As soon as I walked in, there was a dull smell of old dust mixed with the cold air, which was inexplicably eerie.There are some broken bricks, broken glass, furniture debris, and even unburned yellow paper piled up in a disorderly manner in the place where the door is entered.On the right is the hallway, on the left is the stairs leading to the second floor.

Xia Duo led Mo Bei to the back of the stairs, where there was a small storage room built according to the slope of the stairs.There are old sofas and broken cabinets in front of the storage room, and most people will not notice that there is a lock on the door.

Xia Duo unlocked the lock and led Mo Bei to climb in.It was so dark inside that nothing could be seen. Mo Bei was about to speak when he heard the sound of a lighter in the darkness, and then a small ball of fire lit up in front of him.Holding a candle, Xia Duo turned back and smiled at Mo Bei, "Brother, isn't he amazing?"

Mo Bei said: "You better stop laughing, the candle light shining from your chin is scarier than ghosts."

Xia Duo made a grimace, and moved the candle away to let Mo Bei see the environment inside clearly.It turned out there was a staircase leading to the basement.The two walked down the stairs carefully, Xia Duo waved his hands happily: "Welcome to my secret base!"
