Crossing the green wheat ears

Hunger enveloped this land, and in the middle of winter, nature was stingy and gave nothing.From the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, there have been refugees migrating to the south one after another. The location of Binjiang Fufu City, Qujiang flows through it, and the drought is relatively light. A silver lining.

The weather is cold, there is no food in the stomach, and the young and strong can still hold on. Those who are weak, old, and young are falling on this snow field one after another, which is unbearable to witness.

The teenagers like Wei Chengxiwei originally participated in the village guard with high spirits and enthusiasm, thinking that this was a proof of their growth, but faced with the increasingly harsh reality, the teenagers began to become silent.

Yansui is located in the south of the territory of Binjiang Mansion, but because there is no river in the territory, it is not the target of the refugees, and because the location is in the south, the refugees who migrated from the north have to pass through this place.

Not only did people from other places begin to pour into Fucheng, but even Yansui people also migrated there.In several other villages near Lianhua Village, ten rooms and nine empties have already appeared. Some people who don’t want to leave stay in empty houses with broken bowls, and their eyes are dimmed from hunger. Looking around, only Lianhua Village stands alone.

Because of the proximity, they knew a little about Lianhua Village, and guessed that there was food in Lianhua Village, so they came outside the village with the idea of ​​giving it a try, and begged through the wall, hoping to get some food.

We live in this same piece of land. We may have met or heard of them before. Some people are related to a certain family in Lianhua Village. The villagers, including young people like Wei Cheng, can't bear it any longer. They feel that they are from the village. , should help.

However, Cheng Yi issued a death order, and if he dared to let outsiders into the village privately, his family would be expelled from Lianhua Village.Photographed by Cheng Yi's majesty, the villagers who were about to move stopped.

For this reason, everyone was dissatisfied with Cheng Yi and felt that he was too ruthless. Cheng Nan even jumped on Cheng Yi's feet, saying that his father was wrong for what he did, and Cheng Yi whipped him twice to be honest.

However, on the surface, they obeyed Cheng Yi's orders, but in private, especially when it was their turn to patrol and guard, seeing the pity of the hungry people under the wall, they inevitably felt pity. Throw it from the fence, hoping to save someone's life.

Their starting point is good, and they think they can help those fellow countrymen who are about to starve to death.However, people's hearts are always greedy, and those people originally had the attitude of trying. Although they knew that the situation in Lianhua Village was better, they didn't know whether they were also starving. The child rushed like a hungry wolf.

Now that you see something to eat, why are you still willing to leave?

So, within a few days, hundreds of hungry people gathered outside the wall. At first they just begged, but when they saw that the begging was ineffective, they simply carried rough wood and hit the north and south gates of the wall together. Lianhua Village was in jeopardy.

In this situation, the teenagers who thought they were doing the right thing were dumbfounded. Looking at the crazy hungry people outside, how can there be any traces of the honest and simple before?The ugliness of human nature is fully revealed in the face of survival.

Cheng Yi promptly organized the village's strong men to climb up the fence and confront the person who hit the gate. It lasted five or six days without sleep. It was the weather when dripping water turned into ice. As soon as the water was splashed on the wall, it immediately froze, and the village gate, which had been loosened by the impact, became stable again.

If this is the case, it is only a temporary relief. The hungry people below, seeing the villagers watering and freezing, picked up wood and baked it with fire. The whole village was dumbfounded in the face of the raging fire. Break open, and the whole village will be looted. At that time, they can only search for food everywhere like these hungry people, or starve to death!

Cheng Yi stood on the wall with a stern expression. His face was gloomy for a while. He raised his hand and snatched the bow and arrow from Wei Cheng's hand. After the county school, it is specially made by skilled craftsmen, and its power is extraordinary.

Wei Cheng holds a bow and arrow in his hand, looking at the scene below, he still refuses to let go. Although those people are hateful, they are still real people!

Cheng Yi took it over without any hesitation, bent his bow and set up an arrow, aiming at the happiest person with the most ulterior motives, and released an arrow.

The man fell on his back, bleeding profusely from his body, Cheng Yi didn't kill him directly, but just shot him in the leg.

The people below were shocked!

They didn't expect that the people in Lianhua Village would really dare to kill them!

The firelight on the snow field reflected crazy faces, making people feel that this world seemed unreal.

Seeing that the hungry people had no intention of retreating, Cheng Yi bent his bow and fired another arrow, and the other leader was shot down again.

Now, the hungry people down there were in a state of confusion and fear, afraid that Cheng Yi's next target would be himself, so with a "wow", he ran away without a trace.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and used ropes to drag several villagers outside the wall, put out the fire outside, and cleaned up the surrounding area.

Even so, the situation outside Lianhua Village became more and more tense day by day. The men kept guarding their village and the foundation of their lives without sleep.

Wei Cheng and Zhao Lin were walking on the road in the village. Their group had just finished their first shift and now they were going home to rest.The teenagers no longer had the laughter and laughter of the past, and their slightly immature faces were extremely serious. It can be said that this disaster was caused by their self-righteous compassion and compassion in spite of Cheng Yi's orders.

Cheng Nan cried when Cheng Yi's arrow hurt the two of them. It was their fault that made his father have to do this. They are all cowards. They did something wrong, but they couldn't bear the consequences.

The teenagers blamed themselves immensely. If Lianhua Village was robbed because of this, they would be the sinners of the whole village. Even though no adult blamed them, they still felt very uncomfortable.The growth obtained at such a price is too high.

"Chengzi, Chengzi!" Wei Cheng and the others were walking, when suddenly someone called Wei Cheng, and the children stopped. Before turning around, one of them rushed over and grabbed Wei Cheng's hand.

"Chengzi, Chengzi, please save our family, father is really out of luck! Xiaoxi, please kneel down for your brother, please, let your brother give us a bite!" The person who came was Wei's second son. With his ten-year-old son Wei Xi.

"Brother, I'm hungry, I'm hungry!" Wei Xi was obedient, and he probably could do anything he was asked to do as long as there was food to eat.

Wei Cheng's face sank like water, he turned around and stared at Wei's second son - his former father.This person, when he needed shelter from the wind and rain, did not give him any warmth, but now, he remembered that he was his son.

Seeing Wei Cheng's expression, Wei's second son was stunned. He had thought of the words a long time ago, but he couldn't think of them when they came to his mouth.Wei Cheng is no longer the kid who was beaten and scolded by him and unable to fight back. He is as tall as Wei's second child. Because he has practiced martial arts all the year round, he seems to have infinite power in his body.

But Wei Er is no longer as strong as before, and his back is slightly bent.

"Big Brother, Big Brother! I'm hungry!" Wei Xi took two steps, crying and tugging at the corner of Wei Cheng's clothes.The family had been out of food for several days, and he, his mother and sister were too hungry to get out of the kang, their hands and feet were a little swollen, and Wei Xi would not have been able to get up if his father hadn't asked him to come out to find food.

This is the first time he calls Wei Cheng big brother. Before that, his mother and sister told him to stay away from Wei Cheng, don't let Wei Cheng get close to him, otherwise the things in the house will be divided into half in the future.

Wei Xi didn't understand why. He and Wei Chengcheng were not close. When Wei Cheng left home, he was still ignorant, and later on he had no contact with him. Wei Xi just vaguely felt that he and Wei Cheng seemed to have a relationship. implicated.

"Changshan." Zhao Lin watched Wei Cheng's father and son entangle Wei Cheng, and hurriedly called Wei Cheng. No matter what, Wei Cheng was Wei Cheng's biological father. Zhao Lin didn't know how to help Wei Cheng. If Xi Wei was here That's all right, with the Xi family around, Wei's second son probably won't be so thick-skinned, really shameless, they are a few half-year-old teenagers, but they all know what happened to Wei Cheng back then.

Wei Cheng didn't speak, and didn't look at Wei's second son again, he raised his hand and pulled the skirt out of Wei Xi's hand, and then walked forward.

"Brother, I'm hungry, I'm hungry." Wei Xi burst into tears, and now in Wei Xi's eyes, Wei Chengcheng is worth eating.

Wei Cheng walked a few steps, stopped again, turned around, and took out a cornmeal pancake from his bosom. This was something that the elder brother asked him to fill his hunger with because he was afraid that he would be hungry when he was patrolling. In fact, it is mixed with white flour, so it is not rough at all.

Stuffing the tortillas into Wei Xi's hands, Wei Cheng didn't stop, and hurried towards home.

"Chengzi, Chengzi." The second child Wei called out twice, seeing that Wei Cheng didn't look back, he took two steps, and finally didn't dare to catch up. Wei Xi next to him couldn't care less, and took the pancakes Wei Cheng gave him, stuffing his mouth full Both are.

Wei Cheng ran back home, he wanted to see his brother, only where his brother was, there was warmth, as long as he was by his side, all bad things would disappear.

Xiyuan is making wound medicine with Dr. Li's family recipe with Goudan, which is divided into two parts for external application and internal use. The external application is made into powder, and the internal use is made into pills.

Goudan is very attentive, even more active than Xiyuan, and he is meticulous in his work. The dosage of each drug is strictly controlled, and he is very strict.

Wei Cheng pushed open the door with a "bang", and seeing his brother's gentle face, his messy heart suddenly settled down.

"What are you doing, what are you? The door is still rattling when you open it." Xiyuan rolled Wei Cheng's eyes.

"Ah? Second brother, who kicked you out? Why are you panting for breath?" Goudan raised his head to look at Wei Cheng. The braids on his head swayed with his movements. In the compound, it is not allowed to go out easily. Although I know that the outside is different from previous years, I don't know much about it.

"Concentrate on doing your own thing!" Wei Cheng calmed down for a moment, walked in and pulled Goudan's braid, and bared his teeth at Goudan.

Goudan grinned twice, lowered his head and made his medicine seriously.

"Brother," Wei Cheng bowed, put his head on Xiyuan's shoulder, hugged his brother's waist and swayed twice, acting like a baby to his brother.He is too tall now, it is a bit difficult to do this action.

Xiyuan moved on the chair, and patted Wei Cheng's head with his hand, "How old are you, why do you still look like a child?"

"You are my brother no matter how old you are." Wei Cheng rubbed his brother's face and continued to beg for comfort.

"Don't tell me, what we Chengzi said is true." Xiyuan teased Wei Cheng.

"elder brother."

"What's the matter?"

"It's all right."

"Brother," Wei Cheng called again after a while.

"Speak up if you have something to say." Xiyuan grabbed Weicheng's nose.

"I have nothing to say."

After a while, Wei Cheng: "Brother,"

Xiyuan was so annoying, he patted Wei Cheng's arm twice, and Wei Cheng's troubles disappeared, and he immediately revived on the spot with full blood, and he didn't get tired of his brother anymore.

"It turned out to be a beating!" Xiyuan said with a smile, Goudan sneaked at the second brother with his eyes, his mouth almost reached his ears, he thought the second brother was really funny.

"Brother, see what you said." Wei Cheng laughed twice, and went to the waiting room to wash his face and change his clothes.

Although he is in a good mood, what happened to Wei's second child today is still a thorn in Wei Cheng's heart.He is 15 years old, sixteen years old, he is almost a teenager, he can't ask his brother for everything, he has to find a way to solve it by himself.

Wei Cheng himself didn't want to pay attention to Wei's second son. How can he say that he doesn't hate Wei's second family now, but he also doesn't have any feelings for him, just like a passerby.

Wei Cheng was vaguely thankful that the Wei family didn't treat him well back then, otherwise, his brother would never have brought him back to the West family!All the happy and happy things in the world add up, and there is no happiness in the days when I am with my brother!Therefore, the happy Wei Cheng completely let go of the past and didn't care about it.

Not caring about it doesn't mean you can forgive them and reconcile as before, not to mention that they didn't get along well at the beginning.

According to his own thoughts, Wei Cheng didn't want to care about the life and death of Wei's family, but today Wei's second son came to him in front of many people, if he really ignored it, if someone in Wei's second family really starved to death, someone would say that his heart He holds grudges fiercely, is mean and ruthless, and disregards the life and death of his biological father.

Wei Cheng doesn't care what other people say, but if this is the case, his brother will definitely be troubled and sad because of him, and that's what Wei Cheng is worried about.

So, Wei Cheng thought about it for a while, went back to the room, took out the money he had saved in the past two years from the cabinet, kicked it in his arms, said hello to Xi Yuan, said to go find Cheng Nan, and left the Xi's house courtyard.

At this time, the sun was already in the west, and the sunset in the west reflected half of the sky red. Just looking at the scenery in the sky, who would know that the people in this land are hovering on the verge of life and death!

Wei's second son and his wife were lying on the kang with sad faces, the ugly girl was sixteen this year, seventeen in the Chinese New Year, lying in her own room, humming in a low voice.Only the little Wei Xi, who had just eaten the dry food given by Wei Cheng, had food in his stomach, and became more energetic, sat on the kang and played.

Wei Cheng stood in front of the gate of the Wei Family Courtyard. He had never been here for eight years since he left here when he was seven years old. Every time he came to the village, he tried to walk around it as much as possible. It's nothing, the stone that was entrenched in my heart back then has disappeared at some point.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Wei Laoer and his wife sat up quickly. Wei Cheng didn't go into the back room, but stood at the door of the main room, waiting for the couple to come out.

Wei Xi also climbed down the kang and followed him out. Seeing Wei Cheng's eyes lit up, he called out "Brother", Wei Cheng nodded at him, but there was no answer.

"Chengzi?" After Wei Cheng turned around and left, the second Wei thought that he would never talk to him again, and would not care about the life and death of his family. Unexpectedly, Wei Cheng came again, and the second Wei was so happy that he was at a loss. what's good.

"Chengzi, you are here, hurry up, sit down quickly." It was Wei's second daughter-in-law who reacted, wiped the chair with her skirt, and let Wei Cheng sit.

Wei Cheng didn't make a sound, took out the money bag from his arms, and put it on the table, "This is all my money, you can exchange it with someone else's house for some food." Ignoring the light in the couple's eyes, Wei Cheng Cheng walked out without a trace of hesitation, walked to the door, and looked back at Wei's second child, "Don't look for me in the future, I can't help you if you look for me, and I only have one father, his surname is Xi, and his name is Xi Plain text."

The light in Wei Er'er's eyes disappeared in an instant.

"Chengzi, Chengzi?" Wei's second daughter-in-law yelled twice from behind and pushed Wei's second, but Wei's second didn't move.

Many people in the village called him stupid behind his back or in front of him, and he still refused to admit that his son was pushed out to another family. Now, looking at Wei Cheng's upright and straight figure, Wei's second son felt a little regretful, if, If... As for what if, this hateful and stupid person couldn't think of it.

Wei's second family exchanged the money Wei Cheng gave them for grain, but at this time of year, no one cares about money. Allay your hunger.
