Huagu thought as she sat in front of her house. It was a terrible time at that time, but even though it was terrible, it was a good time to have a husband. At that time, I and my husband were sitting on the edge of a field. People in the deserted village were quite jealous because only their fields were raining. Some people even deliberately wanted to come forward and release the water from their fields for nothing.
And that man, who was not far away from his husband's field, saw that his seedlings were gradually withering and dying, while Huagu's field had an abundance of water. For a moment, he hated this heaven so much that he sat on his own I cried on the edge of the field. But what's the use of crying, God has arranged it this way, and it's helpless for a while.
This scene appeared in the eyes of a family not far away. The whole family was about to die because they had been without food for a long time. They had already eaten their little son. Now it was the turn of the old man who stayed on the roof and refused to come down. But the old man looked at the day and realized that it was really good. Moreover, he even saw flaming clouds in the sky. , this was a dream of my childhood, and now, am I going to die?
"Dad, please come down. You've been up here for so long. Look at the sky. It's almost night. If you don't come down, our whole family will die." The eldest son stood in the cold wind below. With such urging, I could no longer stand still. Because I had not eaten for many days, I was really about to die.
The family knelt in front of the old man, and they had to let him die no matter what, because this was the result of drawing lots, and there was nothing they could do about it for the time being. The old man looked at the sky. This was the sky when he was a child. But today, for some reason, the sky was different. It seemed that the sky had become a blood-like color.
Facing the change in the color of the sky, the old man was a little scared. He was not very old and had just entered old age. He originally wanted to enjoy peace and happiness, but in the end, this was the result. Isn't this disappointing? The old man refused to go down for a while, so he just sat on the roof of the house and suffered as long as he could.
But this has been going on for more than ten days, and the family is very hungry. If they don't eat something, they may not be able to survive. But at this time in the deserted village, what is there to eat? Everything that can be eaten has been eaten. Some comrades may say, isn’t there meat?
There is nothing to eat, where can we go to eat meat? If I insist on talking about meat, I can only say that I am eating the meat of my father. For a while, my family was suffering, hoping to let my father live a few more days, but this has already been more than ten or twenty days. Continuing like this is definitely not an option.
The old man took a look at his family members, who were all crying for food. How could he bear to watch them suffer? Why did he wake up early and work late at night? Wasn't it just to give them a better life? When I saw my family like this, I threw away the cigarette and stopped smoking. However, I took a look at the knife in my eldest son's hand. The knife was so dazzling, just like the bayonet of a Japanese soldier. I couldn't help but feel a little scared. .
"Don't kill me, I am the person who fears death the most." The old man said this, but after saying this, the family members cried again. This was also the result of the lottery. Today it is my father's turn. Tomorrow It’s time for the eldest son to stand below.
The old man wanted to escape at this time, but once he escaped, what would the family eat and drink? You can't think about the word "escape" at all, otherwise, people will say that you are too unloyal, right?
The old man slowly climbed down from the roof of the house. The old man has always been afraid of death and is naturally cowardly. If he sees an ant crawling under his feet, he would not dare to step on it for fear of hurting him. But is he about to go down and get stabbed now?
The old man looked at the knife, a little scared, and then looked at the large basin of boiling water, which was used to soak himself. For a while, he climbed up the ladder to the dilapidated roof, and he did not dare to go down. As a human being, if he was burned by the rolling boiling water, it would be painful to death. Even a pig cannot do this, let alone a human being!
"Father, please come down. It's your turn today." Several other sons and even his own daughter also joined the ranks of petitioners. This momentum may not be controlled by this old man.
The old man sat on the roof of his house and started crying. He had been busy for most of his life and never had a good day. He finally raised his children. He thought that he could finally live a good life and even eat big meat. ! Unexpectedly, life was getting worse and worse, and at one point it came to the point where I wanted to eat myself.
The deserted village was filled with cries, and there were dead people everywhere. They were either beaten to death for stealing things for no reason, or they were so hungry that they couldn't stand it anymore and kept screaming there. People were killing each other, and some of the weak ones were snatched away by others, and then in a dark night, the family silently ate them.
The old man looked at this scene, and for a moment he was despairing. It seemed that he was going to die today, so he went on. Otherwise, his children would have no choice but to kill people in the family. But his children were so weak, Even if you are afraid, you will not be able to kill others, and you may even become their food. The old man couldn't bear to see this scene, so he went down and dedicated himself as a meal to his dear family members.
…
Hua Gu sat in front of her house and thought of these things. In the blink of an eye, those hard days were no longer hard days. She had a big house, endless meals, and could even eat big chunks of meat. After drinking from the bowl, you no longer have to worry about not having food to eat. But at this time, without the company of her husband, this life seemed to be missing something. Especially in this dark night, facing the endless wind alone, the desolation of life once reached an outrageous level.
At this time, I saw a person coming. This person was Uncle Feng. When my husband was alive, he often quarreled and even fought with this person. Now that my husband is gone, Uncle Feng comes to his house every day. I don’t know why he came to his house today. What, staying in his own house and refusing to leave. Hua Gu couldn't do anything about Uncle Feng's refusal to leave in her house, because she had eaten the dragon meat given to her by Uncle Feng after all. Of course, this was done specifically for herself by Uncle Feng, and it could even be said that He was willing to risk the disapproval of the world to steal it from others.
Hua Gu ate the dragon meat that Uncle Feng gave to her. It was the most delicious meat in the world. Many people, let alone eating it, couldn't see the dragon meat even if they looked at it. But Hua Gu, when she was eating this dragon meat, it tasted so delicious that no other delicacies from the mountains and seas could compare with it.
But after eating Uncle Feng's dragon meat, Uncle Feng refused to leave for a while. At this time, he was lying in front of Huagu's house, saying that there was a ghost in his house, and the appearance of the ghost was so vivid that he couldn't help but make it clear. People believe. I saw Uncle Feng lying on his patio and refused to leave. The weather was so cold that people couldn't lie on the ground. This was something that women and children all knew. But Uncle Feng was not only lying down, but also coughing non-stop. This was clear. I want to die in front of myself.
Faced with Uncle Feng being so mean-spirited, Hua Gu had no choice but to let him into her house. However, Uncle Feng was so ugly that he looked across the entire deserted village to find someone who could rival him. No, but I don’t know how many years it will take. This Uncle Feng is really a character that only appears in 500 years. He is so ugly, not to mention that some serious ladies are disdainful of him, but he is as slutty as a flower girl. Even though he is so lustful, he is still shocked to face him at this moment!
The deserted village was really too quiet at this time. Otherwise, it would be great if someone could persuade Uncle Feng to go away and go back to his home. But when I looked around, there was no one there at all. Everything was just a mess of lights and the vicissitudes of time, and nothing else.
Hua Gu closed the door and wanted to let such a stinky man into the house and then climb into her bed, but she couldn't do it no matter what. Although my own bed is a bit lonely, it is beautiful. Coupled with my talent, if anyone can climb into my own bed and just smell the fragrance of my own quilt, I will have no regrets in this life. !
Of course, it would be fine if this person was Shaoqiu, but Shaoqiu might still be studying at this time, unlike Uncle Feng, who was drunk in front of his door, talking dirty words. , and I never dare to do anything to him, otherwise, people in the deserted village will say something wrong with me. Hua Gu didn't know what to do and even wanted to see Shaoqiu. However, after reading a book for a day and working on the mountain for a day, she might be very tired. And how can I disturb others?
"Go away!" Hua Gu finally plucked up the courage and yelled loudly at Uncle Feng. This was quite rare for her, because in her eyes, almost every man was lustful. It's a treasure, and this Uncle Feng is no exception, even though he looks so ugly.
When Uncle Feng heard Hua Gu talking like this, he had to leave at this time. Because he offended her, he was afraid that he would not be able to eat from her again. "As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. I'm not in a hurry. Take your time!" Uncle Feng said these words when he left.
After Hua Gu closed the door, she leaned against the door and shed tears. If her husband was here, why would such a thing happen at this time? You really know people, faces but not hearts.
Hua Gu wiped away her tears and threw herself on the bed. As soon as she closed her eyes, the east turned white and it was dawn. She got up in a hurry again, not even in the mood to eat, and went up the mountain to work in the fields.
