The old thin man was sitting in front of the house. There was no wind, the moon was like frost, and everything was silent. However, he was in an extremely bad mood and had no sleepiness. He had no choice but to sit on a stone in front of the door and pass the time in boredom. The long night.
After so many days, Laoshou became thinner and thinner. He was even coughing continuously in the gust of wind. He could no longer stay outside at this time, otherwise it would be very bad for his health.
The old man got into the dilapidated house. At this time, his woman had already fallen into a deep sleep. The wind outside the door blew against the dilapidated door, making a series of terrible noises. The old man was a little frightened, worried that something might happen The bad guy came in. With this thought in mind, he approached the door, closed it, and then placed a stone on the back of the door. With these measures, no matter how powerful the thief was, he would not be able to get into his house. no?
The old man finished his last cigarette and looked up at the night. It was a fine day. The weather would be good tomorrow. It would be a good choice to go out to work or go to the mountains to hoe.
But for some reason, Lao Shou just wanted to sit quietly in his room, accompany his woman, and didn't want to go anywhere.
At this time, it gradually started to rain outside the door, and the weather became cooler. After the old man coughed, he climbed into bed, lay quietly next to his woman, and closed his eyes.
The old man found himself sitting on a large boat. The large boat was filled with some goods. It was the rice he had just sold from Luzhen, and he was going to transport it to other places and sell it to earn some price difference.
But at this time, the desolate hills on both sides of the river were silent. No human voice was heard, and not even the shadow of a bird was seen. From time to time, the sad cry of an owl could be heard, which was very sad. The old man who heard this kind of sound would of course be in a very bad mood, and even planned to give up the rice and run away alone.
"Damn it, why did I end up in such a crappy place?" Lao Shao thought as he looked at the mountains and rocks on both sides of the bank. While thinking this, he looked towards the side of the boat. Under the faint moonlight, A fat figure can be seen lying across the water.
"Is this me?" The old man looked at the fat figure on the water and felt a little incredible. When did he become so fat?
At this time, the old thin man held his left hand with his right hand and couldn't hold it. Even if he held it very hard, it would be impossible to hold it.
"It seems that I have really gained weight." Lao Shou murmured.
Standing on the edge of the boat and peeing on the water, the old man was preparing to leave. At this moment, he suddenly heard gunshots and shouts of death from both sides of the bank. In the chaos, it seemed that someone was targeting him. He waved to him and insisted that he bring the rice boat to the shore, otherwise, he would definitely be waiting with a gun.
In desperation, Lao Shou had no choice but to dock the rice boat. He had to do this, because there seemed to be countless people on the shore, shouting and killing, so he had no choice but to dock the rice boat. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous, and he would immediately die. Death is also possible.
"Fat man, hurry up, or I'll kill you with one shot." A man on the shore roared fiercely. At this time, it seemed impossible if he didn't move the boat carrying rice close to the shore and berth it.
"Everyone, I'm just a small businessman, so I hope you can raise your hand and put it on the next horse." Old Thing said weakly.
However, as soon as the big ship docked, countless people emerged from the gaps in some rocks. Those hungry people who were used to eating bark and mud, when they saw so much rice, how could they not want to , how can you not keep it in your heart?
In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire boat of rice was robbed, leaving behind the empty boat and the almost naked old and thin man standing on the big boat. All the old and thin clothes of good material were snatched away by the group, and some even I suggested that you should get some of the fat body of the old thin man to drink with him.
The final result was that the strong men let Lao Shou go, under the persuasion of one of the heroes with a pockmarked face. Otherwise, Lao Shou would most likely die.
The old man rowed the empty boat and drifted away. But when he reached the center of the river, he didn't want to live anymore. The whole boat of rice was looted. Now he went back with empty hands and saw his woman. What would he say then?
The old man just parked the big boat in the center of the river and watched the people on the shore cheering and cheering. The hungry people who were about to die came back to life in an instant because of the relief of this big boat of rice. Relying on a good man with a pockmarked face, otherwise, those hungry people would most likely starve to death.
"My rice!" The old man moored the big boat in the center of the river. At this time, he looked at the desolate scenery on both sides of the river, and his mood was extremely desolate. For some reason, it gradually began to snow in the sky, and the weather became very cold for a while. .
The obese old man was heartbroken, and thanks to his fat body, even if it was snowing and he was shirtless, he would not feel the cold.
The old man has lost his passion for life. He is preparing to give up life in the future. He originally expected to make a lot of money with this big boatload of rice, and then marry an unmarried woman for himself and live a good life. , but in this case, it’s really all over.
A water ghost in the river was moved by the suffering of Lao Shou. He was lying quietly under the water. He didn't know what his intentions were. Fortunately, Lao Shou didn't know about it. Otherwise, he would never dare to be there again. The waters stayed.
Seeing that the old man was in such a bad mood, the water ghost actually wanted to climb up and try to persuade him. However, considering that the old man was fat and hunky, he was afraid that if he didn't do it right, it might be detrimental to him. , it is better to just lurk in the depths of the cold river and take one step at a time.
The old man was sitting on the empty boat. He was in a very bad mood and all his thoughts were dejected. At this time, he didn't care about anything. He stood up and jumped headfirst into the river. He sank into the cold water. It seemed that Can't live anymore.
Unfortunately, due to poor eyesight, Lao Shou mistakenly thought that the area he jumped into was a deep water area. However, after he actually jumped, he realized that it was not that simple. No, his head hit a rock. Fortunately, It wasn't a big problem, it was just a slight scratch on the skin. When the water ghost saw the blood, he didn't dare to do anything wrong for a moment, and just hid and watched from a distance.
Lao Shou quickly climbed up from the cold river water, touched his head, and found a piece of blood. It was bleeding. He was so frightened that Lao Shou started to cry. Lao Shou had never suffered such a serious injury before. I had no choice but to sit quietly on the big boat, looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
The old man parked the big boat in a secluded and uninhabited place on the river bank. He felt that it would be inappropriate not to treat the wound. It happened that this place was not far from Lu Zhen, so he slowly walked towards Lu Zhen, and soon after After entering a clinic and having the wounds initially treated, I planned to return to the ship and continue downstream. As the new year was approaching, I had to go back to reunite with my family.
Before leaving, a kind-hearted old lady gave Lao Shou a bag of rice. Although it wasn't much, with this bag of rice, it shouldn't be a problem to go back and have a good New Year.
After the old woman gave him a bag of rice, he disappeared instantly and seemed to disappear out of thin air. This almost scared Lao Shou. Fortunately, Lao Shou was not so timid. Otherwise, he might not dare to ask the old woman to give it to him. Here comes my own bag of rice.
This bag of rice, not much, not much, only about fifty or sixty kilograms. Looking at this rice, Lao Shou was almost moved to tears. It seems that there are really good people in this world.
The old man carried the bag of rice and kept walking forward. However, after carrying it for a while, he realized that something was wrong. Carrying a bag of rice on my shoulders felt too tiring, and I was injured. It might not be easy to carry it to the side of the ship.
As the old man thought this, he kicked the bag of rice and cursed, "Damn, why is it so heavy?"
The obese Lao Shou threw away the bag of rice. He felt that if he carried it back like this, he would be out of breath. It would be more comfortable to walk on the empty road. After all, Lao Shou was not in good shape at this time. To boast, it is even bigger than a cow.
Being so fat and carrying such a bag of rice made the old man impatient in an instant. No, he threw the bag of rice on the side of the road. The old man ran away quickly, fearing that he would meet a similar old woman again. .
Because Lao Shou already had no strength at all in his body.
But after walking for a while, Lao Shou realized that something was wrong. He couldn't leave such a big bag of rice on the roadside. If someone picked it up, he would suffer a lot of losses. It was better to think of a safe way and get the bag of rice to the big ship. It's better to go up.
At this moment, someone gave Lao Shou a pole and some thicker ropes. Just when Lao Shou was about to ask him why, the man had already disappeared, as if he could change. It evaporated from the world and was never seen again.
"Why don't you use this carrying pole to carry that bag of rice back? With this bag of rice, you can still eat it for a while without losing too much." Lao Shao thought.
At this time, there was some fog and dew in the sky, which caused some dew on the bag of rice. Lao Shou was a little confused about this, and even thought it was because he was scared and sweating, "Oh, I didn't know you were so timid. Otherwise, I won't leave you alone." The old man said as he looked at the bag of rice.
At this time, I couldn't leave him alone, so he put the bag of rice on his shoulders again and kept walking forward. "Let's go home." Lao Shou said to the bag of rice.
