It was a snowy day, and the deserted village was in a state of depression. People's chatter, laughter and curses were no longer heard. The small river went east, and the snowflakes were mixed with the wind and dust, making the heaven and earth lonely. Shaoqiu was walking by the river at this time. He had just returned from Luzhen and originally wanted to take a boat. However, since the boat owner said that the crew was full and he could not take more people, he had no choice but to walk.
When I appeared alone by the river in the deserted village, I glanced at the sky. There was no sunlight shining down, and the grass between the sky and the earth was already withered and lifeless. Everything seemed to me at this time. , all looked so sad. The wind blows with snow. The howling north wind blew from the mountains, rolling stones everywhere in the sky, and some people's roof tiles were completely broken because they could not withstand the raging wind. What's worse, they fell off the roof of the house.
Shaoqiu was walking, and his long shadow looked so haggard at this time, swaying and dancing in the snow wind, like a bereaved dog. When I walked to the small river, I suddenly saw a military master standing, wearing a thick cotton robe and a tall hat. He looked quite majestic.
There were quite a few people surrounding the military master, and they were blocking the main road. If they wanted to pass through the main road, they would probably have to go through a lot of trouble. "Master Jun, I haven't seen anyone after waiting for a long time, and it's already getting late, and the snow is getting heavier and heavier. If I don't go back, I'm afraid..." One person said to the military master.
"It's okay, just wait." The military master said this. After saying this, he sat on a tall chair again, and the fire in the fire was burning brightly, and the smoke coming out was enough to make you choke. People kept coughing.
Shaoqiu walked. Because the weather is getting colder and colder, my legs are even more numb at this time, and I even want to find a place to take a good rest. It would be best if I can find something to eat. He originally had a lot of money, but when he was in Luzhen, he bought a sesame seed cake from a store. When the boss saw that it was Shaoqiu, for some reason, he put the sesame seed cake away and the store closed the door for a while. Shaoqiu had no choice but to starve.
Walking by the small river at this time, my whole body was already cold, and my stomach was extremely hungry, just walking hungry. After walking for half a day, I finally saw the deserted village, and a group of people were gathering together by the river. I didn't know what they were talking about, but the sound of laughter and gossip was endless, making Shaoqiu almost want to laugh.
Such a large number of people gathered together, and when Shaoqiu looked around, he didn't know these people at all. He didn't know why they were blocking the road. It would be difficult to get through at this time, but if he didn't get through, this would be the only way. It could be bypassed by a lawn under the main road. Otherwise, if you meet these people, your life may be lost.
Shaoqiu didn't have anything on him at this time, but he just bought some medicines from Lu Zhen. The disease was gradually getting worse. It seemed that he might not be able to cure it without taking these medicines. In order to buy these medicines, Shaoqiu spent all his savings. At this time, his stomach was empty. If he didn't eat something, he might not even be able to walk.
"Stop!" At this time, Shaoqiu was standing on the lawn, preparing to bypass these people and go back to his house, but when he heard someone calling him, he did not dare to move for a while.
Shaoqiu had no choice but to stand on the lawn, and the snow in the sky was falling harder and harder. It sprinkled on the small river, and even fell on the military master's cotton coat. However, as soon as the snowflakes fell on it, it was instantly blown away by the strong wind. Even if it is scraped off, no snowflakes can stay on that military coat. Shaoqiu stood still, and the man pulled out a gun in this fashion and pointed it at Shaoqiu. But Shaoqiu did not dare to make a mistake for a while, so he was so frightened that he could not speak.
"Is your name Shaoqiu?" The military master roared. After this sound, a lot of snowflakes fell off the military coat.
"Yes." Shaoqiu replied in a soft voice. "May I ask where I offended you, Master Jun?"
"I can't say I'm offended, but someone said that I want you to punish me, saying that you molested his wife." The military master said this.
At this time, Shaoqiu thought of Mr. Wu. It seemed that Mr. Wu most likely instigated this matter, but he had never seen him have a wife, and he had never molested anyone. How could he say this? How about getting up? He wanted to argue with him for a moment, but the military master waved his hand and told Shaoqiu to stop.
"We are also acting under orders. If you want to blame, just blame your own fate." After the military master said this, he kicked Shaoqiu, and he kicked him into the river.
It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the coldness of the river could be imagined. Moreover, Shaoqiu was sick, so he kept coughing. He thought that Mr. Wu was too poisonous. Why would he ask someone to beat him for no reason? At this moment, I was lying in the cold water, trying to swim ashore, but the military master wielded his knife in his hand and kept slashing at him. If he got close, wouldn't he be killed? I didn't dare to go to the shore for a while, but I didn't know where to swim. I took a look and found a stone in the river that looked like a small island. I climbed up and used it as a shelter.
It was almost dusk, snowflakes were falling in large tracts, and Shaoqiu stayed alone on that rock. Facing the ruthlessness of the sky, he could only sigh in despair for a moment. His whole body felt like he was in a state of shock at this moment. If he didn’t go ashore and put on more clothes, he would most likely be doomed.
Shaoqiu sat on the stone protruding from the river, letting the north wind howl. It was unfashionable and he would be hit by stones thrown by people on the shore. Shaoqiu's head was already broken and he was bleeding continuously. Come. And look at this foot, because I accidentally scratched a sharp edge on the edge of the stone, it was bleeding.
For a moment, I stayed on this rock in despair, facing the vastness of the sky, trembling in vain in the strong wind. For Shaoqiu's situation, the military master sitting on the shore had no mercy at all, and even refused to The resident laughed. A young girl brought two glasses of wine. One was handed to the military master, and the other was taken by herself. She was having a drink with the military master. After finishing the wine, he twisted his waist and left very coquettishly.
Someone handed the military master a cigarette. It was a cigar, a very expensive one, but the military master refused to give in at this time, so he put the cigar in his mouth. And a little man, trying his best to flatter himself, regardless of the slipperiness of the snow, came forward and wanted to light it for the military master. But in the process of coming forward, Shang accidentally tripped over a stone and fell down.
In the end, the person who was closer to Jun Ye lit a cigarette for Jun Ye. At this time, Master Gou was also sideways, roasting a pheasant for Master Jun. At this time, the fragrance could not help but spread out. Master Gou was busy eating dragon meat for a while, so he didn't care much about Master Gou's pheasant. In the heart. After the pheasant was roasted, Master Gou brought the pheasant to Master Jun's mouth and fed him to eat it bit by bit.
At this time, it was stuck, and someone came forward, patting the military master, and kept telling him to eat slowly, eat slowly, eat more. And this fool was roasting a sweet potato by the fire for the military master. He looked at it and thought it was ready, so he came forward and forced it into the military master's mouth.
Of course, the consequences of doing such a treasonous thing can be imagined. The fool was beaten by the military master at that time. If it were not for the fact that he was a fool, it would most likely take his life. The fool was sitting on the side with a very ugly expression on his face. He didn't understand why he had to beat someone even if he was given good food.
Under the night, Shaoqiu lay alone on the stone, letting the snowflakes fall on his body. The cold feeling was quite unpleasant. When he looked at the military master, he found that he had no intention of leaving. I dare to spend time with myself by this small river. However, the military master still had wine and meat to eat, his clothes were quite thick, and there was a fire to roast him. Looking back at himself, what did he have at this time? There was almost nothing.
Although he is not afraid of the cold, what is regrettable is that all the medicine he bought with so much hard work from Lu Zhen is wet. I wonder if taking these medicines will have any therapeutic effect on his disease? But it was too late to think about this at this time. How to climb ashore from here and get some food would be the best solution.
However, the military master is blocking his way. It is not advisable to go up at this time, because the military master is very likely to kill him here. I don’t know how much money Mr. Wu gave to this military master. If he treats himself like this at this time, and if he continues to waste it like this, it won’t be long before his life is considered to be reimbursed here.
Under the night, everything became so blurry, and the snow kept falling. There was a vast expanse of sky far and near, and the smoke was even more hazy up and down the river. When Shaoqiu looked at the military master, he found that although he could see his figure, there was no voice. How could it be that it was too cold and the military master was too lazy to speak for a while?
In the middle of the night, Shaoqiu couldn't bear it anymore, so he climbed ashore and tried to sneak past the military master. He must not let the military master know, otherwise, something might happen. But after looking at the military master, I realized that he was just a straw man, and the military master and those few people sneaked away quietly in the night while the heavy snow was falling.
However, in this night, even though Shaoqiu was quite smart, he could not see clearly because of his short-sightedness, thinking that the military master was still staying there to warm himself by the fire. He cursed at the ashes and left. He looked at the fire and saw that there was a sweet potato. It might have been thrown by people, so he peeled it and ate it.
Shaoqiu returned to his house. Because of the severe cold weather, all the clothes on his body were wet, and he was trembling uncontrollably. Fortunately, someone lit a fire for himself at this time, but when he looked at this deserted village, it was so desolate, and there was no sound of people chatting. Who would be willing to light a fire for himself?
