"Jie Qi? What is that?" Ye Wuyou asked in confusion
Emperor Wa said softly, "Hey, what you and I did just now hurt everything in the world and a few sentient beings. It's a small punishment but a big warning. It's okay."
Bi An nodded, "It may be a little troublesome, but it doesn't hurt. What's more, you have Emperor Wa's merits to protect your body and your own luck blessing. It's just a trivial matter."
Only then did Ye Wuyou feel relieved.
...
In an unknown sea area, a small snake as thick as a thumb quietly opened its eyes
He looked around with doubtful eyes, feeling confused and confused.
Then a fishing net was thrown down, and the little snake did not resist. It was pulled out of the sea along with the fishing net, and was quietly transported towards Dazhou among the fish catches.
Shanshui Fishing Village, a small fishing village adjacent to the sea in the south of Dazhou
After the fish was bought, a pair of big hands curiously picked up the little purple snake.
"Why is there still this little thing in the sea?" He said, throwing it away on the side of the path.
The little snake seems to be terrifyingly quiet, but it instinctively buries its body, eating rats, insects, and ants when it is hungry, and waiting for rain when it is thirsty.
Then it headed towards the south, as if something was attracting it.
Shanshui Fishing Village is neither big nor small, and most of the villagers make a living by fishing.
Although much has been gained, many have also died young.
In every household, young men were taken away by the sea.
And those who don’t have men in their families will naturally suffer bullying...
It seems to be everyone's instinct to eat too much...
The gray-faced little girl pushed open the dilapidated courtyard door, clutching two palm-sized fish in her skinny little hands. In the eyes of the villagers, these were just small things thrown into the sea or fed to dogs. Indeed, the little fish in front of her was Food for the girl and the sick lady in the house.
"Mom... I only picked up two small fish today," the little girl said aggrievedly
The woman on the bed raised her hand with difficulty and caressed the little girl's cheek, "Lian'er is already doing very well. Mom is not hungry. It's okay. You go and have a rest first. When mother gets better, I will make some delicious food for you." of"
The girl nodded with red eyes. In fact, she didn't just pick up these two. For some reason today, the sea water rose and many small fish were washed up on the beach. She picked up a lot, thinking that she and her mother would have a better life in the future, but the children in the village dug out the dam she had worked so hard to collect on the beach, and all the fish she finally collected were destroyed. rush back to sea
Only these two small, stranded fish are left...
The little girl touched her eyes tenaciously and whispered to herself, not to cry. If she cries, her mother will be sad, if she cries, those people will laugh...
Dad is no longer here, I must take good care of my mother!
The expert took out the flint and ignited the stove at home. He carefully picked up a few dry firewood and threw them into the furnace. There was not much firewood. The little girl was obviously trying to figure out how to cook the meal with the least firewood.
Japonica rice was added to the pot, and the little girl rubbed off the scales and internal organs of the small fish and cooked them together with the rice.
When a pot of delicious and tangy fish soup was ready, the little girl took a spoonful for herself and carried the rest into the house.
"Mom, drink some hot porridge to warm yourself up. After you drink it, I'll go pick up some dry firewood. We don't have much firewood at home."
A trace of guilt flashed in the woman's eyes when she heard this, and she nodded, "Lian'er, be careful, have you eaten?"
"Well... I've eaten, and there's still something in the pot! Mom, just eat it. While I'm collecting some firewood, I'll go to Uncle Wang's place to see if there's any work to do."
The little girl carefully fed the woman porridge. The woman took a few mouthfuls and then pushed it away.
"Lian'er, mother can't eat anymore. You can eat. Don't go out for too long. You must be back before dark."
The little girl nodded obediently. He wrapped his little quilt around the porridge bowl to keep it warm, and said softly, "Mom, rest first and wait until you fall asleep before eating. I've eaten..."
"It's still early! I'm going to collect some firewood!"
"Well..." the woman responded softly
The little girl tucked the woman into bed and walked out of the courtyard
When the courtyard was completely quiet, the woman looked at the furnishings in front of her with a hint of bitterness on her lips.
"Qingshan, my daughter is old and can take care of herself. Do you think I'm dragging her down? I'm dragging you down too. If it weren't for this disease, you wouldn't have died at sea, and you wouldn't have let Xiao Lian'er suffer everywhere. People bully..."
"Qingshan...I'm useless..."
"Instead of becoming a burden to Lian'er, it's better to go find you... Lian'er..."
"You can pick lotuses in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are fields of lotus leaves..."
The woman took out a silver hairpin from her heart, touched it lovingly for a moment, and then stood up with difficulty.
Unfolding the envelope and pen and paper at the bottom of the box, Juanxiu's handwriting quietly emerged.
Not long after, a letter was written...
"Lian'er...go to Jiangnan...Lianhuawu...to find your grandfather, and say sorry to him on behalf of your mother..."
After writing the letter, the woman seemed to have exhausted all her strength. Then he died suddenly...
It's getting dark
Landscape fishing village with lights
There was only a cold and lonely place. The little girl opened the door holding a pile of thin firewood. When she put down the firewood, she whispered, "Little guy, don't run around, otherwise I won't be able to save you if someone steps on you." is you"
In the pyre, a small purple figure seemed to understand this, stood up and nodded.
Pushing open the bedroom, the little girl saw the figure on the table and exclaimed, "Mother, why are you up? What if you catch a cold!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help
As soon as she took it, the stiff and cold touch made the little girl tremble.
The little hand trembled and reached towards the tip of the nose.
After a while, two lines of clear tears fell down
The little girl bit her lip and tried not to cry, even though bloodshot eyes were flowing from the corners of her mouth.
He murmured, "Mother doesn't like to see me cry, Jiang Cailian, don't cry!"
"Mom, let me help you lie down...it's cold outside."
"Mom, I have a friend today. I call him Xiaozi..."
"Mom, have you gone to find daddy?"
The little girl struggled to carry her mother's body towards the bed. The sound of the silver hairpin and the envelope falling did not bring her back to her senses at all.
The little girl's eyes are red and her face is covered with sweat
Finally, he put the woman back on the bed. Looking at the warm gruel still wrapped on the head of the bed, the little girl choked softly and wiped away the tears that she couldn't hold back.
Wait until everything is done. Jiang Cailian put away the silver hairpin and unfolded the letter paper
"Jiangnan...Grandpa..."
"Mother..."
At night, a fire broke out in the house in the corner of Shanshui Fishing Village
The house without a man was burned to the ground...
Jiang Cailian walked into the night, holding a small jar and walking out of the fishing village with blank eyes.
Walk into the vast world of mortals
