An inexplicable, thick and turbid, yet mottled color. A bizarre life begins.
There was a sense of panic running awkwardly in Long Xing's heart. It's like going from a kind-hearted fairy tale to a harsh mansion.
The sudden appearance of adoptive parents made Long Xing uncomfortable. The pair looked a bit scary and lived a primitive, ignorant and dark life. Many cruel things then befell Long Xing.
The adoptive mother, Mrs. Lin, was a bit nervous because she lost her child. When she saw Long Xing, her eyes lit up. She kept stroking Long Xing's hair and cheeks, laughing, and hugging her like a wild beast.
In this home, Long Xing felt like there was no breathing space. The adoptive father always looked at Long Xing with a pair of heart-wrenching eyes.
Shortly after Long Xing arrived, a quarrel broke out in the kitchen while the two couples were eating. Both of them stood up, leaned across the table, and yelled at each other.
The adoptive father wants to take Long Xing to help with the work, but Mrs. Lin wants Long Xing to stay at home and help her with housework. The two men were fighting like chickens, screaming. Long Xing was too frightened to eat.
"If you don't agree, I'll tell you all to beg for food! You'll starve to death!" the adoptive father roared. The adoptive mother Lin Po's face changed with pain, and she finally gave in. Uncle Lin was allowed to take Long Xing out to work, and he almost did it after a meal.
Lin Bo owned a forest. He usually went to plant trees by himself. After he became a man, he watched the trees and then sold the wood to make money to support his family. Lin Bo also had a pond where he raised fish and shrimps. He fed them diligently, and when the fry grew up, he earned a good income.
With Long Xing, I have a helper, a forest ranger on the mountain who can carry tools. Hand over food and drink, and there is a helper holding the rope to feed the fish in the fish pond. Every time he was not satisfied with what he was doing, he would slap him in the face. Long Xing didn't dare to dodge at first, but later when he saw someone about to take action, Long Xing's sharp eyes were always able to dodge the flying slaps. Lin Bo was so angry that he gasped and roared. Long Xing hid quickly, so he couldn't hit him much.
"Who asked you to climb up? Come down, or I won't give you food." In order to avoid being beaten, Long Xing often climbed up the tree pole. Lin Bo, who was anxious and angry, could only threaten him and not take advantage of Long Xing. Method.
The moonlight is like silver and the stars are brilliant. Every night when night falls, Long Xing runs into the woods alone to add to his wounds.
Climb up the tree, look at the moon, chew the leaves in your mouth, and let the faint bitterness fill your heart...
Looking at the distant moon, I raised my palms and shook them among the branches and leaves, looking at the confusion that was shining down on me. When I focused my eyes, the sound of insects crawling on the leaves and chewing was clearly imprinted in my mind. Long Xing looked at the mountain trees in front of him, and the tree insects wriggling on each branch were clearly visible. They are taking advantage of the night to be active, busy eating to fill their stomachs, or seeking to mate, and there is a rustling sound in the busy forest.
An eight-legged spider spun a large web and quickly captured an intruding sword beetle. It's just that the knife beetle is very powerful. It waves its big claws and breaks through the web quickly, turning the spider's hard work into nothingness. Long Xing's clear eyes stared at the sword beetle, thinking that he too must have a pair of powerful sword arms to tear through the dark web covering his body and mind.
When he saw it, he saw a miraculous mountain forest under the moonlight, which made Long Xing roar in his heart: "Fuck your grandma! Ahh! Why don't your parents take you with them!"
Long Xing slipped down from the tree and ran madly into the forest to vent his unwillingness and depression. Walking through the forest, every tree seemed to be transparent, with its flowing sap and water-like texture, and even the parasitic borers in the trunks could not hide from Long Xing's eyes. All kinds of small animals living in the mountains and forests looked at the running Long Xing with curiosity and panic. Afraid of accidentally causing trouble to myself.
After running for a long time, he was tired. Long Xing beat the mountain tree in front of him to vent his emotions, and slowly sat down against the trunk of the tree. He exhaled a heavy breath from his heaving chest, and his eyes became clearer and clearer.
A little squirrel on the tree chirped, slid to Long Xing's side, sniffed Long Xing with curious eyes, and squeaked to show its goodwill to Long Xing. Long Xing touched the little squirrel's head curiously. It blinked motionlessly, with an expression that said: You have intruded into my territory. I won't chase you away and we can be friends.
Long Xing felt a little relieved. He played with the little squirrel for a while, rested for a while, and stretched his numb legs and feet. He thought that if he went back late, he would be scolded and beaten by his adoptive father again. Clenching his fist tightly, Long Xing patted the little squirrel after a while, stood up and walked back.
