I opened Another World Restaurant in Yuanshen, and Ningbo Cried.

Perhaps he didn't have any resentment about being abandoned. A guy like himself is destined to be born with a miserable fate.

Especially in today's catastrophe, bringing a cripple is probably the biggest burden for parents. It may be because of bringing him that they cannot reach the destination successfully, and the whole family will be buried in the fierce flood.

That day, he hid under a dilapidated temple, sat from sunrise to sunset, and made a decision until he was dizzy from hunger - he couldn't just die like this, he had to work hard to live, and to prove that he was not a burden!

But to survive, he must first find a way to escape from Qingcezhuang to Liyuegang. Although the success rate of escaping to Guiliyuan may be higher, he does not want to see his parents who have abandoned him.

So Zhou Wei, who was only a teenager, tried his best to jump into the ferocious river with a limp step, and swam towards Liyue Harbor with difficulty.

However, the ferocity of the flood was far beyond his imagination. Fortunately, there was still a piece of dead wood for him to rest on the way.

Just when they were about to arrive at Liyue Port, a huge wave suddenly hit, driving Dead Wood and Zhou Wei into the turbulent vortex.

Zhou Wei tried his best to escape from the vortex of the river and swim towards Liyue Port.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Wei felt that he had exhausted all his strength.

His eyes were blood red, tears mixed with blood and flowed on his resolute face, and his eyes became dark. He tried his best to look up at Liyue Port, which was close at hand, and murmured:

"It seems that this is the only way I can end my life......"

Just when Zhou Wei was about to pass out, he faintly heard the voices of several young adults:

"Quick! There is a child here, come help and rescue him!"

"..."

Chapter 28 Stars in the Night Sky

When Zhou Wei woke up from a coma, he found himself lying in a tent that temporarily accommodated refugees.

After some questioning, he learned that he was rescued by several Qianyan soldiers who were rescuing refugees. Liyuegang was on the coast, and the disaster was no less severe than that of Qingcezhuang.

It was meal time at this time, and several caregivers were distributing food to the refugees.

There were only steamed buns, pickles and porridge for lunch, so when the nurse distributed the lunch to Zhou Wei, he did not forget to say in an apologetic tone:

"Because of the flood, there is no way to transport supplies by land or sea. Now we can only take out these foods."

Zhou Wei shook his head, expressing that he didn't dislike these foods, and then he took his lunch and ate it in big mouthfuls.

The steamed buns in the rice were a bit small, the pickles were a bit salty, and the porridge was a bit runny, but he still ate with relish because he had the hope of living.

A few days later, the flood gradually subsided, and people began to rebuild their homes.

Zhou Wei also recovered his strength, left the shelter, and decided to earn a living by himself.

Walking, Zhou Wei came to the Rongfa store located in the center of Liyue Port, and said to the boss at the time, Dongsheng's father, Dongsheng: "Boss, can you give me some work? I can do anything."

Dongsheng looked up and down with his eyes, and asked, "Son, why are you here alone? Where's your family?"

Zhou Wei was stunned for a moment, then said darkly: "They are all gone, I am alone."

Hearing this, a sly smile appeared on Dongsheng's face, and then he immediately changed into a kind expression, and said with great enthusiasm:

"I happen to be short of a porter here, so you can stay and help me carry the goods, don't worry, take care of food and housing."

In this way, the teenage Zhou Wei stayed at the Rongfa shop and began to work hard, trying to survive on his own strength.

At first, Dongsheng just arranged for him to carry some heavy objects. Gradually, all kinds of chores were thrown on him, such as washing dishes, mopping the floor, delivering goods, as long as it was dirty work that Dongsheng could think of. , will habitually greet Zhou Wei to come over.

Moreover, the so-called residence that Dongsheng provided Zhou Wei was nothing more than a dilapidated thatched hut, the cold wind poured straight into it at night, and it would leak when it rained.

The only food I ate was pickles and steamed buns, and the rice porridge was as thin as clear water.

Even so, Zhou Wei, who had a handicapped leg, still gritted his teeth and persisted, because here, he is not a burden to his parents, and he doesn't have to look at their faces to act.

He is not a burden here, but a porter named Zhou Wei. At least what he eats and uses is exchanged for his own labor.

Zhou Wei even thought in his heart that when the boss paid his wages, he would use the money to set up a small stall in Liyue Port and be self-sufficient.

Finally, a month later, Zhou Wei followed the shop assistants and went to Dong Sheng, the owner of Rongfa Shop, to ask for wages.

But the wages of the other workers were all paid smoothly. When it was Zhou Wei's turn, Dongsheng showed a ferocious smile, kicked Zhou Wei out of the Rongfa shop, and said with a sinister smile:

"At the beginning, I just took you in, but I didn't say that I would pay you. Now I don't need you anymore. Get out!"

Zhou Wei wanted to go to Liyue Qixing to seek justice, but he had no evidence to prove that he owed his wages, and he might be beaten by Dongsheng at that time, so he had no choice but to give up.

When he was kicked out by Dongsheng, there were many people around to watch.

However, no one stood up to fight for Zhou Wei's injustice. On all kinds of faces, some were ruthless, some shook their heads sympathetically, or held the posture of watching a play.

When they left, there were still a few aunts talking behind their backs:

"That old man Dongsheng often finds some homeless children to help him with chores, but he never pays an extra penny, and he doesn't know who the next unlucky child will be... "

No one paid attention to Zhou Wei's movements. It only took one month for him to go from being full of hope when he first came to Liyue Port to being completely hopeless now.

It seems that there are good and bad people too.

Zhou Wei walked on the road hungry, looking at the sky and thinking.

But he was hungry and had to find a place to eat, but the flood had just passed, and there were so many people without food, so that in Liyue Port, as long as someone saw someone recruiting workers, the shop would soon be closed. Overcrowded.

What's more, Zhou Wei can't do anything other than manual labor. Even because his left leg is lame, he is not as good as other laborers in physical labor.

In this way, Zhou Wei lived in the ruined temple near Liyue Port, went to Liyue Port to find work during the day, and returned to the ruined temple to rest at night.

But after wandering around for several days and eating all the dry food left on him, he still couldn't find a job.

The shop owners either thought he was too young and were reluctant to hire him, or they thought he was lame. Occasionally, some kind-hearted merchants would give him a biscuit or two to satisfy his hunger.

Zhou Wei looked around in a daze among the bustling crowd, it was really difficult to survive in this world. ． ． ． ． ． ．

He even came up with the idea of ​​stealing to make a living, but when he came to the door of Wanmin Hall and looked at Master Mao who was cooking hard, he immediately withdrew his idea.

Everyone's life is not easy, and I can't use this method to obtain food anyway.

On the way back to the ruined temple, Zhou Wei ran into a group of robbers again.

This group of robbers is different from the Treasure Bandits, which mainly search for treasures from various ruins as their main business.

And this group of robbers were originally bandits on the mountain. Taking advantage of the flood that swept Liyue during this period and Qianyan's soldiers were short-handed, they all went down the mountain, doing evil near Liyue, blocking roads and robbing.

But when the group of robbers stopped Zhou Wei, they found that his pockets were cleaner than his face, and they became furious and beat him up.

In the end, in the leaky ruined temple, Zhou Wei lay down for a day and a night, and when the pain in his body had not disappeared, he looked back on his terrible life.

He was bullied by his peers when he was a child, and has always been a burden to his parents. He was abandoned by his parents a month ago. He worked hard but didn't get the reward he deserved. He was beaten up by the robber while walking. ． ． ． ． ．

In this world, there may be no reason to let yourself live. ． ． ． ． ．

So he stood up again, but the reason for standing up this time was not to survive, but to find a way to leave this world.

He found a piece of rag in the ruined temple, but when he looked up, he found that the ruined temple didn't even have a single eave that could allow him to hang himself.

So he took the rope made of rags and walked towards the distance.

I remember that there is a big tree near the ruined temple, the thick branches should be able to let me leave this world safely.

So he struggled to get up, and walked slowly towards the big tree near the ruined temple.

Chapter 29

"Help me!!"

Just when Zhou Wei came under the thousand-year-old tree and was about to put the rope on the trunk, a cry for help caught his attention.

Zhou Ping followed the voice, and found that the robbers who had beaten him earlier were surrounding a girl with lewd smiles on their faces.

"Call it! Cry it! It's useless for you to break your throat in this wilderness, hahahaha..."

"This chick is really handsome. Our brothers are so lucky to find such a chick in the wilderness."

"what!!"

While several robbers were laughing, suddenly a robber was headshot by a big stone.

Immediately afterwards, two more stones hit the back of another robber continuously from three meters behind, knocking him to the ground on the spot.

"who?!"

The remaining two robbers turned their heads and roared fiercely.

Seeing that the visitor was the cripple whose pocket was cleaner than his face yesterday, the bandit in the lead rushed forward and shouted:

"It's you again, do you think the beating you received yesterday was not enough?"

"I've already reported to the police, the Qianyan Army will arrive soon, you just wait and go to jail!"

Holding a sharp stone in each of his left and right hands, Zhou Wei stood three meters away from them and said sharply.

"Brother, I'm going to deal with this kid!"

The little brother who got up from the ground held a machete and said viciously.

"It doesn't look like this kid is lying. He must be stalling for time and wait for the Qianyan Army to catch us. Let's retreat first!"

The bandit leader was more cautious. After rolling his eyes a few times, he decided to take his younger brother and escape from here.

A few days ago, they amassed a lot of money near Liyue Port, did all the bad things, and even stopped the life-saving supplies used to support the flood.

Seven Star has long regarded them as thorns in their eyes, and has long wanted to arrest them and bring them to justice.

It's just that the Qianyan Army was too busy fighting the flood and rebuilding after the disaster a few days ago, but recently the post-disaster reconstruction has almost been completed, and the Qianyan Army's focus is naturally on arresting them.

It is precisely because of this that the bandit leader is so cautious.

Zhou Wei didn't say much, but took the girl's hand and rushed to Liyue in a hurry to prevent the robbers from coming back to take revenge after finding out.

The ruined temple located at the foot of Tianheng Mountain is separated from Liyue Port by a river, and it takes a long detour to go back.

"Thank you!"

On the way, the girl rescued by Zhou Wei smiled sweetly and said with narrowed eyes.

"No...you're welcome."

Zhou Wei, who had never chatted with girls before, was a little shy, and continued hesitatingly:

"You... Which family's girl are you, why did you appear in this wilderness?"

The girl stopped and said softly, "I came here to fulfill one of my wishes. As for my home, I have already lost it."
