Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

It was also a night of torrential rain, with lightning, thunder, and violent wind and rain.

Gu Mingnan was drenched and shivering from the rain. He looked around and found that he was walking towards the grain depot.

"You're here—" a familiar voice pulled him behind the straw pile with one hand.

Gu Mingnan looked up and saw that it was Wang Mazi.

He frowned and wanted to leave. He didn't understand why he had to brave the rain to find Wang Mazi in the middle of the night. He had promised that his eldest brother would not be nice to Wang Mazi.

big brother?

Gu Mingnan felt that he seemed to have forgotten something.

Seeing him in a daze, Wang Mazi urged impatiently, "Whether you want to do it or not, tell me something, and if you don't do it, get out."

Gu Mingnan heard himself grit his teeth and replied, "Damn it."

Only then was Wang Mazi satisfied: "I poured medicine into the water in the grain depot. When he falls asleep, you can steal it. I'll stand guard outside for you."

Gu Mingnan stared in the direction of the grain depot, and suddenly his stomach growled.

He felt very hungry, and his stomach was on fire, as if he hadn't had a full meal for a long time.

Wang Mazi laughed mockingly, and tossed him a piece of sweet potato contemptuously: "I said that your eldest brother is really useless. If your wife dies, you will die or live. If this continues, your family will starve to death."

After finishing speaking, he patted Gu Mingnan on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, if you follow uncle, you will definitely not be hungry."

Gu Mingnan lowered his head and finished eating the sweet potatoes in two bites, and wiped his mouth, only to find that his arms were extremely thin, so thin that only a layer of skin and bones remained.

I shouldn't be like this, Gu Mingnan thought to himself, but the feeling of hunger in his stomach made him lose the ability to think.

He said in a muffled voice: "It's agreed that we will only do it this time."

Wang Mazi looked at him with a playful smile: "What? Are you scared?"

Gu Mingnan lowered his head: "Stealing is against the law."

Wang Mazi snorted coldly and looked at him sideways: "Then are you going to do it or not?"

Gu Mingnan stared in the direction of the grain depot: "But I can't let my two nephews starve to death."

"Hey, that's right. You can sneak in later. We just need to steal the confiscated food on the ground and leave. They can't find so much food without anyone noticing it."

Time passed bit by bit, and there was a slight snoring sound from the direction of the grain depot.

Wang Mazi gave Gu Mingnan a push: "You're fast asleep, you go."

Gu Mingnan hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and rushed over.

Anxiety and worry surged into his heart, and he really wanted to call himself to stop, but he watched the much thinner half-year-old boy in his dream rushing into the grain storehouse.

Stealing food and being discovered, Wang Mazi ran away when he heard the movement, and the panicked teenager ran away desperately.

More and more people were chasing him, Gu Mingnan gasped for breath, his heart ached, he wanted to find a source in the rainy night.

Suddenly, he stepped on the ground and rolled down the hillside. He hit a stone hard on the back of the head and completely lost consciousness.

"Ah!" A scream woke up the sleeping Gu family.

Gu Sanmei next door looked at the sky and couldn't help cursing: "It's not yet dawn, Gu Er Er, what are you screaming like!"

The second brother Gu forgot to argue with his sister for the first time, he fumbled the back of his head hastily.

The real pain in the dream seemed to follow the dream into reality, making him feel pain in his forehead.

Naturally, the back of his head was not injured, and Second Brother Gu stretched out his hands, which were completely different from those in the dream.

Since his sister-in-law passed away, the eldest brother has matured all of a sudden, always trying to find ways to get food for them to eat, not to mention a full meal, but every meal is at least [-]% full, and occasionally there is meat.

After a few months, the upright adolescent Gu Mingnan didn't gain weight, but he looked thinner when dressed and undressed, and he was in better shape than most members of the brigade.

He also measured his height a few days ago, and he has grown by two centimeters this year, and he will definitely catch up with his elder brother in two years.

He touched his stomach again, and there was no pain of extreme hunger.

"It's a dream, it's just a nightmare." Gu Mingnan finally regained his strength, and lay back on the mat, panting heavily.

After lying down for a while, the despair in the dream gradually disappeared from the body.

However, Gu Mingnan tossed and couldn't fall asleep, he suddenly got up and tiptoed to Gu Mingdong's room.

The house of Lao Gu’s family is an earthen house, which is spacious, but each room is only blocked by cloth curtains, which can be opened by reaching out.

Gu Mingnan gently opened the curtain, and poked his head inside.

Gu Mingdong was naturally still awake at this point.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Gu Mingnan quietly moved inside again, getting closer and closer until he crouched in front of the bed and stared.

Unexpectedly, before he could take a few more glances, Gu Mingdong suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and pushed him to the ground.

"It hurts, it's me!" Gu Mingnan shouted repeatedly.

Gu Mingdong realized something was wrong when he pushed the person down, and he saw that it was his silly brother who was screaming.

He stood up: "It's not even dawn, why are you sneaking into my room?"

Second Brother Gu rubbed his arm, and said bitterly, "Brother, you are too ruthless, my arm must be blue."

Gu Mingdong kicked the person on the ground: "If it wasn't for the kiss, it wouldn't be a problem of bruised arms right now, I'll give you a discount directly."

He heard a familiar voice when he started to do it just now, so he withdrew his strength.

"Tell me, what are you doing here so early in the morning without going to sleep?"

Second Brother Gu was a little bit awkward, until Gu Mingdong became impatient, raised his eyebrows, and looked at him with a fierce look in his eyes, then he said, "I, I just had a nightmare."

"Nightmare?" Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows slightly.

Seeing that the elder brother didn't throw him out directly, the second younger brother Gu hurriedly said: "Yeah, it's strange that I had this nightmare."

"In the dream, our family had no food all the time. I was so hungry that I was an adult, so I believed Wang Mazi's words and went to steal food together, but was discovered. Wang Mazi ran away first, and I ran away. The people behind I kept chasing and chasing, and if I was not careful, I would fall to my death."

Speaking of this, he still had some lingering fears, and touched the back of his head: "This nightmare is very realistic. When I woke up, I thought I was really dead."

From his face, one can still see some fear and fear of the dream.

This dream was unexpected, and Gu Mingdong couldn't help but look at him more.

Second brother Gu hurriedly said: "I also find it ridiculous when I wake up. Brother, you are so powerful, how could you make us hungry."

Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows slightly, and reached out to grab his ear: "Does it hurt?"

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, brother, please be gentle." Second brother Gu hurriedly begged for mercy.

Gu Mingdong snorted coldly: "It's okay if it hurts, it's just a nightmare, is it worth waking me up in the middle of the night, huh?"

Second brother Gu saved his ear, rubbed it and said, "Brother, I know I was wrong, I'll go back to sleep right away."

After walking a few steps, he turned around and asked, "Brother, can I sleep with you?"

His answer was ruthless refusal, and the second brother Gu had no choice but to go back to his room to sleep in a grievance.

It's strange to say that when Gu Mingnan just woke up, he only felt his heart pounding, and the despair in the dream was lingering, which made his heart beat uncontrollably.

But when he saw Gu Mingdong, Second Brother Gu felt his heart settle down again.

It's good that the elder brother is still there, Gu Mingnan has Dinghaishenzhen in his heart, and feels that he is not afraid of anything.

He left, but Gu Mingdong didn't go to bed straight away, instead he thought it was strange.

The second brother Gu didn't participate in stealing food at all, but he had such a dream at night. It's not so much a dream, but something that should have happened in the original timeline.

In that world, the original owner was devastated, and the old Gu's family was only relying on their three underage children. Their life must be worse than that of the Widow Liu's family next door.

Hunger can make people crazy, Gu Erdi listened to Wang Mazi's words and went to steal food, and finally stumbled and fell to his death.

It's just that Gu Mingdong couldn't figure out why Second Brother Gu would dream of something that never happened.

Is this also the butterfly effect brought about by his time travel?

The second younger brother Gu will follow Wang Mazi to steal food and fall to his death, and the third and fourth younger sisters will end up miserable, but everything has changed, the twins are raised by him to be white and fat, so will these things in the original plot still happen?

Gu Mingdong was lying on the bed, and a warning line suddenly pulled up in his heart. If his time travel was not the only one, then he had to be more careful, so as not to show his feet.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was cloudless and clear. If it wasn't for the fact that the ground was still wet, it would have been hard to tell that there was a heavy rain last night.

Gu Mingdong sipped his porridge, looking at Gu Mingnan vaguely.

Gu Erdi seemed to have completely forgotten the dream of last night, and drank the porridge snoringly, without any panic or despair.

After finishing her porridge, Gu Sanmei stared at him and asked, "What are you yelling at in the middle of the night?"

"Who is screaming, you heard it wrong." Gu Erdi refused to admit it, and said with a stiff neck.

Gu Sanmei sneered, and snorted coldly: "A Xing, A Chen, don't learn from your second uncle in the future, just wake up from a nightmare and dare to do it."

Looking at the big round eyes of the two nephews, Second Brother Gu growled, "Do you have evidence? You talk nonsense all day long."

After speaking, he looked at his elder brother with a guilty conscience, hoping that he would not expose himself.

Gu Mingdong naturally didn't expose his intentions.

Second Brother Gu quickly finished his breakfast in two or three bites, got up and said, "The sun is out, I'll ask Third Uncle if he's still going to pay the public rations today."

After finishing speaking, she ran away.

Gu Simei and the two also heard about what happened last night: "Such a big incident happened in the brigade, and there is water on the road, so it is probably impossible to go to the town?"

"Not necessarily, maybe the captain will think it's safe to pay the rations early, who knows if there will be a second Wang Mazi."

At this moment, Gu Sanmei raised her head and asked, "Brother, if you go to town this time, would you like to visit my sister-in-law's house?"

"Sister-in-law?" Gu Mingdong was stunned for a moment. He was not the original owner and had memories, but there was always a layer of separation.

"Yeah, when she came back during the Chinese New Year last year, I saw that my sister-in-law's face was not very good. My uncle and cousin didn't come back. I don't know if they had a fight."

Gu Sanmei wanted to marry in the city wholeheartedly, and she had the best relationship with her sister-in-law. It's just that there were so many things this year that she finally remembered this matter after the autumn harvest was completely over.

After being reminded by Gu Sanmei, he remembered that the old Gu family indeed had a sister-in-law named Gu Xiuxiu, who was the younger sister of her father who died young. She married into the city as a daughter-in-law in her early years and had a son and a daughter under her knees.

When their parents passed away one after another, the younger sister Gu Xiuxiu often went home to help, and it was not until Gu Mingdong grew up that she came a little less.

Thinking about it carefully, the last time Gu Xiuxiu came back was last year for Chinese New Year, and there was no one there after that.

Gu Mingdong looked through the memory of the original owner, and in the following years, this sister-in-law also disappeared completely and never appeared again.

He couldn't help frowning.
