The villain always wants to be my little brother

The old village chief said: "You haven't been back in these years and you don't know what's going on in the village. All the young and middle-aged people in the village who can go out have gone out, and only we, the old, weak, sick and disabled, who can't go out, are left at home. Something happened in Tiancun, and it wasn’t very good, so I invited a Daxian back. It’s not counted as an invitation, the Daxian came by himself. But since the Daxian came, the village has improved a lot. But the Daxian said, in the future If anyone from the village comes, you have to go to his place first and show him.” Seeing that the two men’s faces were a little unhappy, they quickly said: “It’s okay, it will be fine in a while. Your old house is not far from Daxian’s house. It's over."

Zhao Fengnian looked at Sister Chen's face, wondering: "Is it okay if I don't go?" Looking at the downcast face of the old village chief, he quickly said with a smile: "Or go tomorrow, okay? You see, this is not the road I'm so tired after walking for several days, do you want to go home early and rest?"

Unexpectedly, the old village head, who seemed to be easy to talk to, flatly refused, saying: "You must go today. Otherwise, you will have to spend the night outside the village today."

Zhao Fengnian and his wife looked at each other, and the atmosphere was stalemate for a moment. The old village head calmed down again, and said, "You know Fengnian, there are a lot of things in the mountains, especially at night when there is no one, everything runs out. Outside I don’t need to say more about how unsafe it is, I watched you grow up, can I still harm you?”

Zhao Fengnian hurriedly said: "No, no, where is it? It's not that I haven't seen that great fairy, and I haven't prepared anything. I think I'll wash up tomorrow, and prepare something to take with me. Isn't it better?"

Hearing this, the old village chief said cheerfully: "Prepare anything, don't need to prepare. Daxianren is very good, just follow me. When I came out to pick you up, I met him on the road, and he specifically asked me to take it with me when I came back." You go. Go, don't delay."

Seeing that Zhao Fengnian couldn't shirk away, they had no choice but to follow along secretly.

Lin Yanjin followed them to this place, and found that the intricate mountain roads were no longer the same as before.The road under his feet is obviously man-made, and it is much more spacious and clean than before. Looking ahead, he can see the outlines of houses, large and small, but the houses here are not gathered together like the ones he has seen before, but They are scattered in twos and threes, very sparsely.After observing in secret for a while, Lin Yanjin discovered the pattern. The houses here seem to be built around something.

When he was distracted, several people had already walked into the village. The village was also silent, and the houses stood upright in the dark night without a single bright light. The silence made people feel uneasy.

However, the old village chief didn't seem to feel anything, and he babbled as he walked, "Most of the villagers are old people and children, and they all go to bed early, and most of them are asleep now..."

Chen Ling suddenly said "Ouch", and Zhao Fengnian hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ling complained in a low voice: "It's okay, I sprained my ankle. What kind of road is this, why are my feet hurt?"

The old village head turned to look at them, and said: "I forgot to remind you, pay attention to your feet and don't stumble. You don't know, little girl. I heard from the older generation that our place used to be very backward and closed, and we didn't follow the outside world. We got in touch. Later, someone from the national exploration team came and found a small village behind the mountain, so we got in touch. In the past, there were mines in the mountain, and the village passed the railway. Later, the conditions were so difficult that the railway was closed and abandoned, but the rails were still there. "

While talking, he led the way, and reminded: "Here, lift your feet, don't trip over. You see, the houses around here were built around the railway when the railway was built. There is nothing to do in the village. Little The kids love bouncing up and down the rails after school..."

Lin Yanjin felt that the road was a bit strange after entering the village. After listening to the old village chief's explanation, she realized that the stumbling track under her feet turned out to be the railway track. No wonder it felt uneven. The previous doubts were also solved. The trend of those houses is because they are built around the railway.

After walking for a while, when they reached the crossing, the old village head stepped off the railroad tracks, beckoned to follow, and said, "We're almost there."

There is a gentle slope below the crossing. A few people walked cautiously, turned around a few houses, and stopped in front of a small tile-roofed house. Through the courtyard wall, they could see the faint light leaking from inside. Chang said: "Do you remember my nephew Erchun, Fengnian? He used to play with you when I was young."

Zhao Fengnian nodded and said: "I remember, when I was black and thin, I looked like a little monkey."

The old village chief smiled and said, "It's him. The couple bought a house in the town, and the whole family moved to the town. The house happened to be vacant, so I gave it to Daxian to live in." After speaking, he motioned the two to wait Then, he went up and knocked on the door: "Daxian, I'm back."

But after a while, footsteps came from inside the door, and the door was pulled open from the inside, revealing a gap of half a person. A tall man stood behind the door and said, "Come in."

Lin Yanjin glanced at this person's back through the crack of the door, and somehow felt familiar.

Daxian opened the door and walked into the house. The old village head held the lantern in front of him, blew out the candles inside, and said to Zhao Fengnian and his wife, "Let's go. Put the things in the yard first, and take them when you go back. It's strange to carry."

Zhao Fengnian nodded, put down the things in his hand, took the child on Chen Ling's back, and said in a low voice, "I'll hold it for a while, you rest."

Chen Ling, a person who has never done heavy work, gritted her teeth and carried her child on the mountain road for so long. She was indeed exhausted, and she did not argue with him, and tied her son's neckline together: "Let's go."

Lin Yanjin followed them in, and found that although the immortal lived in a common brick house in the village, the furnishings inside were very novel and unique, revealing a strong modern atmosphere.At this time, most people in the village have fallen asleep. Even the old village chief lit a lantern when he went to pick them up. It can be seen that the resources are not very good, but there is an incandescent lamp in Daxian's house. In the dark night It looks extra bright.

Lin Yanjin heard Chen Ling exhale softly, and understood that she had seen the light, and her heart settled down.

Any person who grew up in the city and is used to being surrounded by lights, feasting and feasting, will feel a sigh of relief and a high level of nervousness when he comes to an unfamiliar place, and it is a small mountain village with traffic congestion and almost isolated from the world.After all, where no one is looking, anything can happen.What's more, it was dark and quiet late at night, which made people panic, and made people feel more and more uncertain.But the strange thing is that as long as a person sees a little light in the dark night, he seems to have a little confidence and courage in his heart.

Several people walked into the room, Daxian was facing away from them and didn't know what he was doing.The old village chief seemed a little embarrassed. He stood rubbing his hands and opened his mouth, but he still didn't make a sound.

The room fell silent for a while, the Daxian didn't speak, the old village chief didn't speak, Zhao Fengnian and his wife didn't know what to say.

The child in Zhao Fengnian's arms struggled a few times, Zhao Fengnian lowered his voice and asked softly: "What's wrong with Yanyan? Do you want to come down?"

The child who asked Yanyan nodded, Zhao Fengnian bent down and squatted down, put him on the ground, and said in a low voice: "Stand obediently, we will go home later."

Lin Yanjin didn't hear the child's words from the beginning to the end, and there was a big question mark in her heart, but she just gave up because of the darkness of the mountain road and couldn't see clearly.At this moment, the light was bright, and there was nothing wrong, so I started to look at the child carefully.

Hearing that Chen Ling and Lu Yuan asked for leave before, plus Zhao Fengnian's conversation with the old village head, Lin Yanjin already basically understood what was going on with this child. He was often hospitalized, and even became seriously ill to the point where even Zhao Fengnian's parents passed away and had no time to go home for the funeral. , looking at it under the light at the moment, I only feel that it is no different from the child next to me except that my face is paler.

The child is about four or five years old, with a pair of sparkling eyes inlaid on his sickly face, which is completely inconsistent with his whole spirit, and his brows are flickering with hope. When he looks at people, it will make people feel a kind I can't help but pity him for his impulse to protect him.At least that's what Lin Yanjin thought when he looked at Lin Yanjin.However, in just a moment, the child looked away from where he was.

Lin Yanjin thought that he could see her, so she hurriedly walked up to him and squatted down, waving her hands in front of his eyes. The child didn't respond at all, and turned her head to look at Daxian.

"I can't see me either." As expected, Lin Yanjin stood up, with nothing to do, suddenly curious about what the Great Immortal was doing, and just about to walk over, the Great Immortal turned around.

Lin Yanjin looked at Daxian's face and felt that she might be dreaming: Lu Yuan?

Lu Yuan was holding a few pieces of yellow paper with some red handwriting on it. Lin Yanjin could tell at a glance that it was a talisman paper painted with cinnabar.

"Mr. Lu?" Chen Ling obviously saw that it was Lu Yuan, and blurted out.

Lu Yuan didn't respond to her, but said something else: "I know why you want to come back, but I also tell you that it's useless to come back and hide. What should come will always come."

Zhao Fengnian's face changed drastically, and Chen Ling asked hesitantly, "Mr. Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Yuan glanced at her expressionlessly, and said, "Why are you here, and why am I here."

Chen Ling looked panicked for a moment: "You, do you know something?"

Lu Yuan's eyes turned around her son, and Zhao Fengnian took a step forward, standing in front of the mother and son, blocking his sight.Chen Ling hurriedly hugged the child into her arms and covered it tightly.

Seeing this, the old village chief was a little anxious, and quickly asked, "What do you mean? Daxian, this child's illness..."

Lu Yuan raised his hand to interrupt him: "It's not about illness, it's about something else."

The faces of the husband and wife changed again and again, especially Chen Ling, whose face was almost pale, standing there precariously.

The old village head saw that something was wrong, looked at everyone's faces, and asked: "Fengnian, didn't you say that the pollution outside is serious and the air in the mountains is good, so you brought the children back to take care of themselves? Is there something else you are hiding from me?"

Zhao Fengnian forced a smile on his face and said: "I really brought the child back to take care of his health. The child was born in poor health, and the notice of critical illness has been issued several times. The doctor said to find a place with few people and a good environment to raise him." , maybe it can be better."

The old village head exhaled, and said to Lu Yuan: "Daxian, Fengnian was also raised by me, and I believe he will not lie to me." Looking at Lu Yuan's face, he said, "Of course, I believe you too. Daxian, what do you mean?"

Lu Yuan didn't answer, got up and walked out: "Since we're here, let's go and have a look first."
