The story begins more than ten years ago when the old man took Xiaoyu to escape.

The old man's surname was Li. In terms of seniority, Ji Ruge had to call him grandpa.

But Ji Ruge calls him old man, and his name is Ji Ruge, not Ruge, but Xiaoyu.

The old man said his name was too elegant and hard to pronounce, so he called him Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu said that he was not his grandfather and his name was not easy to pronounce, so he called him old man.

When he was young, Ji Ruge's family of three lived by the Zhuoshui River in Luofu Mountain, carefree and very happy.

He never knew why his surname was Ji instead of Shen.

Until one day the old man and a swordsman named Ji Wuxu broke into their lives with a group of people.

They said he was the son of the man named Ji, so he was called Ji Ruge.

After a huge accident, his family was ruined, and the old man adopted him.

Later, he followed the old man and the man named Ji, which was regarded as adoption.

When they were being hunted near the Kunlun Mountains, the man named Ji was killed to protect the two of them.

From then on, the old man and Xiao Yu lived a life of wandering.

The two homeless people, the old man said he wanted to settle down in Liangzhou, and Xiao Yu said he wanted to go back to Zhuoshui Creek.

Xiao Yu couldn't defeat the old man, so she had to follow him all the way to Liangzhou.

On the way, they ran out of money and went begging to make ends meet.

An old man and a young man lived like two beggars.

Passing through Junzhou.

There were floods in Junzhou and it was not easy to beg.

When no one could survive, Xiaoyu still picked up a weak little yellow dog on the roadside and hugged it.

The old man asked him to throw it away, but Xiaoyu refused.

The two of them passed by an old temple in the mountains and had no place to stay, so they decided to rest in this dilapidated temple for half a day and spend the night before leaving.

There was no one in front or behind the forest, so the temple was left in the forest, and the opportunity to beg was lost.

There was wilderness all around, and the old man couldn't find anything to eat, so he found a bunch of yellow mushrooms in the nearby pine forest.

The two of them cooked and ate the food in broken earthen pots left behind by others in the ruined temple.

The mushrooms are cooked and fragrant.

The old man was worried that the wild mushroom was poisonous, so he caught a glimpse of the little yellow dog in Xiaoyu's arms and became aware of it.

He planned to use a dog to test whether the mushroom was poisonous!

Xiao Yu smelled the aroma and was already very greedy. She picked up two wooden sticks to use as chopsticks and wanted to eat.

The old man grabbed the chopsticks and cursed at him: "Give it to the dog to eat first!"

Xiaoyu was young and ignorant, and didn't know what the old man was thinking. She thought the old man accepted her and adopted a puppy.

Children's nature is such that they like animals and tend to treat them better than themselves.

He watched the old man pick up some mushrooms from the pot with chopsticks and feed them to the dog instead of eating them himself. He felt happy, thinking that the old man also liked the cute puppies.

The puppy was already thin and small, and the person who abandoned it just threw it on the roadside because he didn't think it was even qualified to cook.

Like the two of them, the puppy had been hungry for a long time. When he saw something to eat, he sniffed it and started eating.

After waiting for a while, the old man saw that the dog was fine after eating, and then he and Xiaoyu Fengjuan Canyun ate mushroom stew.

The old man is full and wants to take a nap.

He tore off the red hanging cloth in the temple, wrapped it on the ground and fell asleep.

Xiaoyu couldn't sleep, so he took the puppy and played with pebbles outside the temple.

There are many fox eagles in the barren mountains and wild ridges.

It is another year of famine, and birds and beasts are causing chaos. There are many people who eat corpses and scavenge, and there are many people who bully the weak and slaughter the sick.

The little yellow dog was originally weak, but Xiao Yu put it aside. The eagle in the sky saw it and rushed down.

The little yellow dog didn't react in time and was picked up by the eagle and carried into the air.

Eagles like to kill their prey and then eat its corpse.

The little yellow dog was taken up to the sky. When Xiaoyu found out it was already too late, he chased it anxiously, running and shouting in the forest.

The eagle in the sky didn't care about someone shouting on the ground, and flew far away with the puppy.

From a distance, Xiao Yu saw the eagle throwing the little yellow dog from the sky and falling into the rocky col of the opposite mountain cliff.

If we had to go down the mountain, then up the mountain, it would be another day or two of journey. Xiaoyu was exhausted after chasing for several miles, so he had to give up in the middle and walked all the way to the temple in mourning.

In the ruined temple.

Xiaoyu was sad in the yard. The more she thought about the puppy, the harder she cried. Finally, she sat on the stone steps and cried in her arms.

The old man was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard crying. He sat up in his deep sleep, looked at Xiaoyu and cursed:

"Little bastard, why are you crying? This scared me awake."

Xiaoyu cried and wiped her nose, and replied: "Xiaohuang is dead!!" After saying this, she started wailing again.

When the old man heard this, he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. The dog was used to test the mushroom poison. If the dog died, his Xiaoyu still had the mushroom soup in his stomach!

The old man felt sleepy, and he immediately started to flutter, picked up the broken bowl beside the fire in the yard, and dragged Xiao Yu, who was still crying, towards the stinking cesspit behind the temple.

The temple is a dilapidated temple. The cesspit has been abandoned for a long time. There is a puddle of smelly water with many weeds growing on the edge.

The old man threw himself down, reached out and scooped out a bowl of excrement water with a broken bowl, pulled Xiao Yu over, and scolded:

"Why are you crying? Stop crying. Drink it!"

The excrement smelled bad, Xiaoyu cried and shook his head in refusal.

The old man ignored Xiao Yu's resistance, pinched his small mouth, grabbed the feces bowl and poured feces into his mouth.

Xiaoyu's eyes widened as she drank a large bowl of excrement water. She was so nauseated that she bent over and vomited the excrement water and the mushrooms at noon all over the floor.

The old man also smelled the stench, so he became determined, scooped up the excrement water and poured it into his mouth.

The two of them drank feces at the edge of the cesspit to induce vomiting. They vomited until their intestines were drained and their stomachs were filled with bitter water.

The old man sat slumped on the ground on one side and breathed a few breaths. He felt relieved when he thought that his grandfather and grandson had found out in time and their lives were saved.

The old man is not from the south, and he has never eaten wild mushrooms in the wild.

After the disaster, he had no choice but to take Xiaoyu to cook mushrooms to eat. Little did he know that the yellow pine umbrella was delicious and non-toxic. The death of the little yellow dog was not caused by the mushroom poison, but by an eagle who caught it and threw it to death.

The old man felt relieved when he saw that although Xiaoyu was in a sorry state, his face was still rosy and there was no sign of poisoning.

"Little bastard, when did your little beast die?"

When Xiaoyu heard this, she wiped her tears and had no idea what the old man meant by this nonsense. Crying in mourning, he wiped his tears and looked at the old man and muttered:

"Old guy, are you not full from the mushroom soup? Do you have to drink a few bowls of stinky shit?"

Hearing this, the old man cursed: "Little bastard, your yellow dog is dead, which means the mushroom soup is poisonous. Old man, I saved us two, you know nothing!!"

Xiaoyu suddenly realized that the old man cooked mushroom soup and fed it to the dog. He did not like the puppy, but used the puppy to test the poison.

Xiaoyu looked at the old man with a hint of resentment in his eyes, wiped the snot from his nose with his sleeve, and muttered: "Xiao Huang was not poisoned to death, but was caught by an eagle and thrown to death!"

Hearing this, the old man's face, which was originally filled with happiness, instantly turned cold, and his eyes looking at Xiao Yu also showed growing anger.

In Xiaoyu's memory, the little yellow dog died, was fed a large bowl of smelly feces, and was vomited to death, and then received a fat beating from the old man.

The most unlucky day in my life is also the most memorable day.
