The sky is orange and the birds are returning to their nests.
The little boy jumped up and down the road, looking very happy.
He met two generous customers today who gave him two more copper coins. It happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, so he bought two meat buns and planned to celebrate the festival with his grandmother.
"Hey, little beggar!"
Two men suddenly jumped out of the grass on the side of the road.
With crooked eyes and a slanted mouth, and a shaking leg, he was a well-known gangster near the town, and the little boy was immediately alert.
One of the gangsters stepped forward and pulled the paper bag in his arms: "Hey, it smells weird and you bought meat buns again? Tsk, everyone is beggars, why do you eat meat every day? Come on, this brother also What does this meat bun taste like..."
The little boy took two steps back and avoided it in time.
The little gangster narrowed his eyes: "What? Not happy?"
The little boy pursed his lips and said nothing. He looked around carefully and began to look for a direction to escape... He was kicked to the ground.
boom,
His face wrinkled into a ball,
The body was bent like a shrimp.
The little gangster looked cruel: "It's shameless, right?"
He stepped forward and pulled the bun in his arms. The little boy hugged the bun tightly and refused to let go. The gangster got annoyed and slapped it with a big ear scraper. There was a buzzing in the boy's ears and he was instantly dizzy.
The little gangster tried to pull it again, but the boy got the courage from nowhere and said, "This is grandma's." He bit the gangster's arm.
The little gangster screamed instantly, causing the other gangster to laugh.
"You're laughing at your mother, I'm so sorry, why don't you come up and pull this brat away! It hurts me to death."
The little gangster stepped forward to stop him, but a wild dog from nowhere suddenly rushed over, grabbed the dropped meat bun and ran away. The little gangster tried to chase him, but was bitten so hard by the boy that he couldn't push him away for a while. open.
A scrawny wild dog will die if it smells meat buns?
The original owner appeared at this moment, looked at the little boy who was being punched and kicked indifferently, and then turned to chase the wild dog.
She had washed her face, and when she passed by a piece of grass on the roadside, she felt sleepy and lay down to rest. She listened to the struggle of the little boy and the gangster all over and was too lazy to get up. She did not get up until she heard that the meat buns were about to fly.
As the saying goes, if you beat a dog with a meat bun, you will never come back.
Similarly, Qing Le failed to recover the meat bun in the end and had no choice but to return to the ruined temple hungry.
The night was getting darker, the bright moon hung in the sky, and the scenery of the earth was unobstructed. She dragged her legs and walked slowly, passing by a small figure curled up in the middle of the dirt road, lying silently on the ground.
The wind lifted the bangs on the young man's face, revealing a thin face.
Qingle walked by without squinting.
Early the next morning, people in the ruined temple discovered that the little boy was dead, lying in the middle of the road, blocking the way of passing vehicles, and was finally thrown into the wild field next to him.
From then on, Qingle once again lived a life of eating one meal but not finishing the next.
Once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over,
Leaves are falling one after another, and people have put on thick clothes.
There was frost, light snow, and heavy snow. Before everyone could react, they had to put on their cotton-padded jackets.
Qingle had no money and couldn't work, not even simple dishes, so she couldn't afford a cotton-padded jacket. When winter came, the fruits on the mountains fell to the ground and rotted, leaving her with nothing to eat.
The feeling of hunger was unpleasant, so she had to leave the ruined temple and go to the small town.
Snow began to fall in the sky, and the ground was completely white, and it was biting and cold when she stepped on it. At this moment, the sound of a carriage creaking came from behind, and she leaned towards the roadside.
The carriage passed her.
Made of sandalwood, the carriage bells jingled, and the carriage stopped.
"Old man, do you want to go to the town ahead? Let's give you a ride."
Qing Le looked up and saw a little maid with sideburns, a chubby red face, and a pink dress. She looked very festive.
Qing Le was helped onto the carriage and entered the warm carriage. She drank a cup of hot tea and felt extremely warm.
"Thank you."
"No thanks, no thanks. If you want to thank me, just thank Adu. He begged me to let you come up."
The pretty young lady covered her mouth and laughed so hard.
Qingle followed the lady's gaze and saw a boy in a boy's uniform in the corner. He was seven or eight years old and had a naturally smiling face, white and tender.
Seeing her looking over, he scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's the young lady who has a kind heart..."
This family's surname is Ye, and they live in Tianmu City. Their ancestors were officials. In winter, it snowed heavily. Miss Ye wanted to imitate the ancients and walked in the snow to look for plum blossoms. She took her maid and servant out of the city... So she returned to the city and met Qing Le. .
There was laughter and laughter all the way to the small town.
"Old man, where are you going? It's snowing and it's hard to walk. Let's take you home."
"No need."
Qing Le got off the carriage directly.
The snow in the sky is getting heavier and heavier, and I can't see anyone after taking two steps.
Qingle walked slowly in the heavy snow against the wind. Almost all the shops on both sides had their doors closed. Those who didn't close the doors immediately drove her away when they saw her trying to go in. Just when Qingle was thinking about what to do, a shout came from behind. : "Grandma, wait!"
The little boy ran over with a bag of things in his arms: "You walk so fast, I almost couldn't keep up."
He dragged her to the alley next to him and stuffed the pastry into her arms. He felt a little embarrassed and said, "I asked the lady for this. She just doesn't like mung bean cake. If you don't mind, just take it."
He looked around again, a little strange: "Where are you going? Is no one coming to pick you up?"
Qingle hunched over and said nothing. The boy blinked and lowered his head to see the straw sandals on her feet...the toes were frostbitten, and the rough skin was exposed to the ice and snow.
The boy suddenly became speechless: "Are you homeless?"
—
The carriage stopped at the gate of the town,
An old man and a young man staggered over from a distance.
The driver was surprised: "Didn't he leave? Why did he bring someone back again?"
Hearing this, the lady opened the car curtain and saw the boy helping Qing Le to the front of the car, asking repeatedly if he could take Qing Le in? He will definitely work hard and take good care of her, and will never cause any trouble to the young lady.
"Does the old man have nowhere to go?"
The young lady looked at Qing Le.
Qing Le didn't say anything, and the little boy immediately said: "Miss Hui, that's exactly what it is. Look..."
A pair of big black and white eyes looked at her pleadingly, and the young lady was happy, but what was an old lady worth? Then he followed his wishes.
The carriage set off and staggered towards Tianmu City.
-
Xihe doesn't care about Qing Le's situation, she just wants to see the results after a hundred years.
winter day,
Snow is falling heavily in the sky,
The whole Shangyuan Zongfang City is full of New Year atmosphere, and red lanterns are hung in front of Fan's house.
After several months, the little tree demon and Uncle Zhong made great breakthroughs in their cultivation. They both succeeded in practicing Qi and entered the Qi training period. Once they entered this stage, their cultivation progress was completely different.
The little tree demon is suffering from a lack of enlightenment, but as a demon, its talent is still very good.
Uncle Zhong couldn't do it. His talent was not good and he was old. He had not read a few books when he was young and his understanding of Tao was too shallow. Even with Xihe's guidance, his progress could not be said to be fast.
However, my back has straightened, my energy has improved, my eyes are no longer cloudy, and my whole person has changed a lot.
