Wearing a mountain village tuff

After coming here for a few days, Ye Baiyou entered the village for the first time.

He lived at the entrance of the village, and he could walk all the way to the village from the side road.Ye Baiyou has no relevant memory about how many people are still in Daquan Village.

Just looking at the empty houses one after another, I can't help feeling desolate.

Last time, the old man Li Dengke he saw lived in the middle of the village.Entering the village now, Ye Baiyou took the attitude of giving it a try to see if he could find the old man who was the governor and ask about going north.

Winding all the way in, walked for about four or five minutes.Ye Baiyou stopped in front of a hut.

This thatched hut was big, similar to the layout he lived in.Several thatched huts are side by side, and the yard is fenced in.

The door inside was ajar, and Ye Baiyou knocked on the door without much hope.

"Who?"

Very childish, the voice of a child.

"You are... Li Changan?"

After going through it in my mind, I found out that the child was Li Zheng's grandson, Li Chang'an.This year is thirteen, and the person in my memory should be strong and strong, but now his cheeks are sunken and his eyes are protruding.

Almost as thin as myself.

"Ye Baiyou! What are you doing here!"

The child was very vigilant, holding the door with both hands to prevent Ye Baiyou from entering.

"Your house..."

"My family has no food!" The child yelled loudly, looking at him like a robber who wanted to rob the family of food.

"No! I want to ask your grandfather." Ye Baiyou's voice was slightly lowered, "I went up the mountain a few days ago and saw your grandfather on the mountain."

"My grandfather is fine!" Li Chang'an's eyes turned red instantly, and he emphasized loudly, "He's fine!"

"Yes, yes, it's all right."

"If that's the case, then I'll go back first." Ye Baiyou didn't expect the villagers to be so guarded against Yuan, and it seemed that he was going to return in vain.

"Wait!" Li Changan opened the door and chased him out, but he didn't dare to look at him, "Wait, wait a minute."

Ye Baiyou turned around, but before he could see clearly, the mud splashed on the ground, and the child knelt straight down.

"Ye Baiyou, can I, can I borrow some food from you?" The child burst into tears, but bit his lip tightly to keep himself from crying.

"Get up, the ground is so dirty." Ye Baiyou held his hand, but she was not as strong as a child.

"Ye Bai, brother Ye! Can I borrow some food from you, just a little bit!!"

Li Changan wiped away his tears: "Grandpa is hungry. He won't eat, he won't eat... Woo..."

Ye Baiyou paused while supporting the person's hand, then was surprised: "Is your grandpa at home?"

"Here! In order to save food, he left all the food he found to me if he didn't eat it." Li Changan crossed his eyes with his elbow, "Brother Ye, I saw you looking for food on the mountain. I didn't go to grab it, it was you found it first."

"I just hope, borrow a little... borrow a little, I will continue to look for it on the mountain tomorrow, and I will return it to you if I find it."

"Okay..." The child's lips could not stop trembling, as if grasping the last straw.

Ye Baiyou looked sad.At this age, in my previous life, I was still a child who just finished junior high school.

"Can I go take a look?"

Li Changan has been observing Ye Baiyou for the past few days, just like Grandpa said, he seems to be a different person.It's very different from before.

Grandpa said that people who come through the door of hell are different.He knew that he was called by Grandpa to visit.Ye Baiyou was out of breath.But when he went home and told his grandfather to go back, he was fine again.

The boy was afraid, but Grandpa reassured him.

Because Ye Baiyou got better.It really got better!

He nervously led people into the house.

Same fence wall, thatched house.The skinny old man was lying on the bed, dehydrated and hungry, exuding a dead air like rotten wood.

Ye Baiyou's heart tightened: "Come with me!"

As he said that, he started to walk home quickly, Li Changan saw the old man who got off the bed and ran out after him.Looking at Ye Baiyou's thin back, tears came down again as he ran.

The family members have all left, and grandpa is old, and he can't go far if he doesn't want to go.And he just wanted to stay with Grandpa.Up to now, he has taken in four or five old people in the village with his grandfather.

Inside are all the elders who greeted him when he saw him before.But now, he doesn't want to!It was my grandpa who didn't want to send him away at all.

The young man is just a scholar, but once there is a drought, reading can't make a living.In just two years, he quickly became the pillar of the family, or the village.

Because apart from the sick Ye Baiyou, he was the only young man left.

Ye Baiyou quickly filled a bowl of water and stuffed it into the boy's hand: "Here, water, take it back and feed it to him."

After the child left, Ye Baiyou thought about it and turned around to enter the young man's room.

Sure enough, the water at the head of the bed was gone, but the loach was still there.

Ye Baiyou hastily explained a few words and ran away.

After a while, the person on the bed moved.

Shen Wujing looked at the sky with lowered eyelashes.Slowly cover the stomach with both hands. "Okay, what about mine?"

The sound is extremely shallow, inaudible.

Except for the dried loach that has not been dried yet, the five loach that have been baked for Shen Wujing are the only thing that can be eaten at home.Since he doesn't eat it now, let's take care of it first and return it to him when we come back.

When he ran to the child's house, he had already fed half of the water to the old man.For the rest, no matter what old people don’t drink.

The child burst into tears in anxiety.

"Grandpa, drink some more."

"Drink some more!" The child directly knelt on the ground, and the sound of knees hitting the ground made his ears numb.

Ye Baiyou looked at the old man's face and sighed softly.

"You drink, and then feed some loach meat to your grandfather."

"If you don't have anything to eat, you can't go on like this."

Li Dengke rolled his eyes like a marionette.He looked at Ye Baiyou.

Ye Baiyou is open and frank.

They are all familiar people, he has changed, and it is easy to detect it.

People in ancient times were superstitious, and they might have burned him in the past.

"Sit." Li Dengke just took the meat from his grandson, and slowly ordered a low stool on one side.

Ye Baiyou sat down and waited for the old man to finish eating.

I ate two out of five, and kept silent on the rest.

Li Changan swallowed while looking at what was in the bowl, and quietly stayed aside with the bowl in his hand.

"Chang'an, you eat." Li Dengke's voice was hoarse.

"Grandpa, save Grandpa for next time." Li Changan's eyes were firm.

The old man sighed heavily.

"Brother Yuzu, what's the matter?"

Ye Baiyou doesn't beat around the bush either. "I want to ask about going north."

Back then, when the villagers left one after another, they all came to ask Li Dengke.Because the old man is a child born, he has been out of the village.There will naturally be more to know.

So head north, where are you going?Can know a little more, can be a little more.

"You have to go north." The old man was weak, and he opened his eyelids slowly.

Ye Baiyou didn't hide it either. He smiled wryly: "Yes. It doesn't rain in Daquan Village, and the mountains are getting drier. If things go on like this, no one can survive."

Hearing this, the old man felt sad, and his cloudy eyes trembled violently: "That's right, no one can survive."

Many of the old buddies who passed through his hands went to sleep in the soil.

"But we have a severe drought, but the north is flooded, do you know?"

"I don't know." Ye Baiyou said.

"If you want to go north, then go to Zhongming Mansion in front of Jing'an Mansion." The old man stopped talking for a long time, and he looked at Ye Baiyou with dim eyes.

"Zhongming Mansion is right next to Kyoto. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, if not, there is also the sea. If we want to grow crops in the future, it will be much better than ours."

"If you can't make it through, there are many merchants there, and following the caravan is another way out."

The more the old man spoke, the lower his voice, and the strength in his whole body seemed to be unable to support his eyelids.

Ye Baiyou winked at Li Changan and asked him to continue feeding the loach.Then he said: "I haven't made up my mind about going north, but if it's still the same after half a month, then I will go."

"Ah."

"If at that time, can you bring my grandson with you?" Worried that Ye Baiyou would not want to, he spoke more forcefully, "You are a brother, it will be inconvenient for you to appoint someone on the road."

Knowing what Ye Baiyou wanted to say, there was a tired smile in his eyes.

Li Dengke has long been bearish about his own life and death.It is enough to live at such a great age.

He slowly said: "This world is chaotic...Brother You, you should think it over carefully."

Ye Baiyou's eyes fell on the young man, and he frowned and thought:

"Got it, thank you."

"I should be the one to thank you." The old man waved his hand, and it fell in the air like a dead leaf falling. "But don't bring a man you don't know to your home."

Ye Baiyou knew who he was talking about, he chuckled and shook his head: "No."

If that man wants to harm him, he will die together.

-

Days went step by step, and on the tenth day, the person on the bed was able to slowly get out of bed with a bowl of water and five loaches every day.

Ye Baiyou stood under the eaves, squinting at the stars in the sky.

Tomorrow is another sunny day.

The mountain has already been searched all over by him.The dried yams and loach have almost been saved.Just waiting to choose a time and leave directly.

go this day.

It was the No. 20 day when Ye Baiyou came over.The body eats six to seven percent full every day. Compared with the strength of crawling on the ground before, it is now able to walk a little.

He packed everything up before dawn.

Ye Baiyou opened the door.

But before going out, he thought of the person lying on the bed.Ye Baiyou paused.

He sighed, took a clean veil and dipped a little water into his room.

These days, the man is sleeping.

I don't know if the toxin has penetrated into the bone marrow.

Putting down the basket, he gently opened the door.A clean white cotton handkerchief covers the palm.With the help of the dim light, Ye Baiyou gently wiped the face, then the hands, and then the feet...

Shen Wujing's eyelashes trembled, and she woke up from the torment.

He said in a low voice, "Where is your clean face?"

"Ay Ya I gi!"

Startled, Ye Baiyou slapped him on the leg: "Sleep well, close your eyes!"

After half a month, the two became a little bit familiar.Ye Baiyou gave him a pre-death clean-up, which is considered as the most benevolent.

"You!" Shen Wujing quickly withdrew her itchy feet.

"Don't move!" Ye Baiyou felt that it had been brewing for so long, and the flashback would come soon.

He was worried that he would not be able to lift him when he got out of bed, so he could only hold him down.

"Ye Baiyou!"

"Hehe, you know my name." Ye Baiyou grabbed the hand of the plopper, and wiped the handkerchief that had wiped her feet again.

Shen Wujing, who loves Jie seriously, couldn't take it anymore: "Ye Baiyou! What are you doing!"

"Brother! Can you just lie down!" Ye Baiyou threw the handkerchief on the bed.

"Alright, if you know my name, remember to bless me when you go down. Also, forget it in this life, remember to repay the favor in the next life, you know!"

Cleaned up for others, and he is a handsome handsome guy.Ye Baiyou reluctantly took a few more glances.Then he left without looking back.

Shen Wujing just laughed angrily.

"You just got buried!"

His body was getting rid of toxins, but he said that he was going to die.

Really...

Really!

"Wait! Where did you say you were going?" Shen Wujing put on her shoes and chased them out.

Ye Baiyou was caught in this basket that was twice his size. "Hey, I said you want to die outside, don't you?"

Shen Wujing couldn't communicate with him, she was deeply powerless.

Forget it.

Where he goes, he will know if he follows.Anyway, I haven't got out of bed for a long time, so I should move around.

Ye Baiyou no longer cared about the man by his side.

The door to the courtyard was opened, but unexpectedly, there was a person standing outside the door.
