"Qi returns to Qihai, do you know where Qihai is? Boy! Concentrate!" Tie Lian shouted angrily:

"If it weren't for the fact that you still have two points of aptitude to guide you... Even if you kneel and beg me outside, I might not be able to say a few words to you."

Qi Yantang looked at him with one eye, and thought: Shit!I can't stop your mouth even if I'm hungry for two days.

"Are you scolding me?" The iron chain clanged, and the soles of the man's feet touched Qi Yantang's calf.

"No." Qi Yantang said unhappily, and then took a deep breath, he was indeed a little uneasy, and his brows could not help frowning:

"It's almost time."

"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to starve you to death." The man hummed:

"You know how to frown at a young age, don't you know that forehead lines look old?"

"I'll just grow a beard like you when the time comes." Qi Yantang said absent-mindedly.

He slowly crawled to the door, his eyes were squinted by the sunlight squeezed in through the crack of the door, there was still no movement outside the house, he didn't know if it was late or it had passed, at first he wanted to judge the time by the feeling of hunger, but later It didn't work anymore, he was already numb from hunger, in fact, if it wasn't for this bearded man teaching him how to hold his breath to survive, he might have been lying on the ground unconscious.

"Do you know what time it is?" He sat back and asked softly.

"I'm hungry and grab two worms to eat."

"There's a food shortage in the city, maybe he's running out of food here too... If so, did he send out steamed buns yesterday?" Qi Yantang muttered to himself.

"You want to go out." The bearded man was silent for a while, and said firmly.

Qi Yantang looked at him with his lips pursed, if it wasn't for his hands and feet becoming weak from hunger, he should have picked the door lock and left when the lunatic started to be late three days ago.

"It's good to go out, but sooner or later he will torture you to death here." The bearded man suddenly became sentimental, and Qi Yantang's instincts were aroused, but luckily he was honest by nature, so he didn't say any harsh sarcasm.

The lunatic did not come today, which means that they have no water or food all day today.The lunatic didn't come for two days in a row, and they had no water or food for two days in a row.

Qi Yantang lay on the ground, silently breathing according to the breathing method told him by his beard, but his heart sank to the bottom of the valley little by little.Fingers dug into the ground, his eyes flickered uncomfortably, and he couldn't stop thinking about his sister's situation.

"Boy, are you still alive?" The bearded man always talked with his feet when talking to him.

Qi Yantang didn't say a word, he heard the irritated collision of the iron chain, he froze for a while before saying in a hoarse voice:

"My sister is only seven years old."

The sound of the chains suddenly stopped.

"You left your seven-year-old sister alone for four steamed buns?" The man's voice was sharp and mean.

Qi Yantang closed his eyes, and the bearded man continued:

"You really should get out."

"...There is movement." Qi Yantang suddenly stood up, staring at the direction of the wall like a hound.

"...Can you hear me?" The bearded voice seemed a little surprised.

Qi Yantang hesitated:

"I'm not sure, but..." He put his hands on the ground:

"The ground seems to be trembling."

The bearded man suddenly laughed foolishly:

"Don't look at this small place as dirty and dilapidated. Except for the wooden door, everything else here is made of dragon-building stones. This kind of stone is extremely heavy, and the size of a fist is as heavy as a grown man. How dare you say that you listened to me?" Can you hear the sound from outside?!"

Qi Yan looked eagerly at the door.

"Don't think about it, you can't break it."

"What about you?" Qi Yantang hissed.

The bearded man fell silent for no reason, and Qi Yantang asked aggressively:

"You are an adult, you have kung fu, don't you always say how powerful you are, show me?"

"You ungrateful brat." The bearded man chuckled:

"No matter how powerful I am, didn't I tell you that it happened ten years ago. Ten years is enough to grow another annoying brat like you. It's not unusual for anything to happen."

"For example, I am bound by iron chains, for example, I am half paralyzed." The man smiled fiercely, like a ghost.

Qi Yantang choked suddenly.

"Something must have happened outside." He lay on the door panel silently, his tone a little impatient.

After this sentence was finished, there was no more words in the room.The silence froze for a long time, and the bearded voice sounded:

"Maybe you are right...Qi Yantang, come here."

When he followed the sound and looked over, there was only darkness, the dull sound of iron chains scraping the ground in the darkness, he stared for a moment to adapt, he saw that the silhouette that had never been blurred was a little clearer, Qi Yantang frowned, and his eyes were fixed on the few strands on the side of the bearded man light.

"I have been digging the dragon building stone for ten years..." Qi Yantang glanced over, but the man suddenly stopped talking.

Holding vague hopes for ten years, feeling the body a little bit stiff, and the limbs out of control inch by inch, the horror is beyond words.

"Boy, are you still here?!" He suddenly called out in a vicious voice.

Qi Yantang walked over as promised, he suddenly realized what was going to happen next, and felt guilty ecstasy, he stared at the bearded man, and found that he couldn't see any clues from his blurred face.

But he knew that he was half-paralyzed and had no hope of getting out of here, maybe there was, but it was too slim after all.He didn't know what it was like to dig a wall in a dark cage by himself, but he knew that if it was him, he would not give up even if he had to dig to the core of the earth for his little Wei'er.

"Is there anyone out there you want to meet?" So he asked.

The bearded man suddenly took a breath, the sound was like sobbing again, he laughed dumbly:

"No more...no more...boy, you are passing by, no, you are not passing by, you must go, knock your head three times in front of the Changgan gate in Fanshan, and then kneel and wait for the head of the gate I personally said I forgive you, and finally went to the back mountain, where there is a grave, offered three sticks of incense for me, and then picked the best Baizhi plum and put it in front of the grave."

"Okay." Qi Yantang agreed without hesitation, and he didn't even ask why.

The bearded man laughed again, he didn't seem interested in explaining anything, he just muttered:

"It's cheap to kill you brat, don't die before you finish your work for me."

"I will do my best, but if I die, I will ask my sister to help you fulfill my wish." Qi Yantang promised earnestly.

The bearded man suddenly stopped, and after a while he sighed:

"You are indeed a good brother. As a brother, you should look like this."

Qi Yantang didn't comment on his feelings, he just looked at him very seriously, as if he was serious about everything, he said:

"What's your name? Even if you want to forgive your head, you have to have someone.",

"...You don't need to know, you just need to tell the headmaster that you are entrusted by me to sweep the graves in the back mountain, and they will know who I am."

Qi Yantang nodded slowly, but the bearded man suddenly seemed impatient, the chain that tied him rattled and rattled,

"Come here!" He breathed heavily, as if he was dying.

Qi Yantang relied on his words and leaned over, a big rough hand touched his face, and the bearded man hoarsely laughed:

"Okay, okay..." But I don't know what to say.The hand left his face, and pressed against the deep hole behind him with a faint wind sound, that palm, which was as light as a feather, seemed to have a thousand pounds of force, after the air trembled for a while, the rays of light became tangled and thickened.

Qi Yantang gasped, the sound of stones peeling off in the darkness could be heard endlessly, he looked at the bearded man, but in the blink of an eye, he collapsed on the ground as if he had run out of fuel.

Qi Yantang reached out to touch the side of his neck, just like these days when he confirmed the life and death of children who were about his size, his hand was grabbed suddenly:

"Kid...boy...remember, remember.." he wheezed.

"I remember."

The hand loosened slowly, and the bearded man's weak nasal voice sounded:

"There is poison in your body...Remember to carry it down...then get out, get out..."

Qi Yantang got out of the hole, the sun was overwhelming, like hot iron pouring on his skin, he took a breath, gritted his teeth and rolled into the shadows, panting for a moment, he rolled and crawled towards the ruined temple.

His body is poisonous and cannot be metabolized by the body, so he can only die.

But he won't die, even before the famine he didn't believe it when they were still able to feed themselves, but now, he has never felt so strong, the weak air lingering in his lower abdomen gave him a false confidence, Make him really think that as long as he grit his teeth, he can go anywhere he wants to go.

--------

The decline and decline of the long street did not start today, but Qi Yantang smelled a smell of gunpowder smoke from inside. This familiar and unfamiliar smell made him tremble all over. Perhaps the absence of the madman was related to this, and the faster he walked , almost like riding on the wind.

As he expected, the famine ignited the deep-seated bane of the dynasty. The rebel army rose up from the neighboring cities like a broken bamboo, destroying the three cities in one go. , which calmed the public outrage.

The source of the lunatic's food was not clear to the local government, and the fire at the city gate affected his innocent fish, so he had to run around for his rations even though he was extremely skilled.

Of course, Qi Yantang didn't care about these things, his tight heart didn't let go until his sister appeared in front of him.

They didn't even have time to call out, Qi Yanwei slammed into his arms with a thud, and then burst into sobs, Qi Yantang's mind tightened, and he squatted down and urged his sister:

"Let's go."

"I can walk by myself." Qi Yanwei didn't ask why, but just protested in a crying voice.

Qi Yantang was unmoved, he didn't worry that she would feel uneasy, what if she got scattered in a crowded place, that would be fine.

It seems that the life of the whole city is crowded at the gate of the city now, Qi Yantang supported Qi Yanwei's buttocks to stabilize her back, and only then heard his sister's small voice in the noisy crowd:

"Brother, after leaving the city, find a place where no one is around to lean on."

Qi Yantang didn't make a sound. In fact, it's really not easy to find a place without people in this situation, but maybe Qi Yanwei will try his best to fulfill every request of Qi Yantang. Fortunately, the rabbit hole five miles away from the city on the outskirts of the city is barely satisfied. To meet the needs of the siblings, of course, the rabbit is long gone.The crowd frantically followed the flag of the rebel army, like a donkey hanging by a carrot, howling, but they didn't know that the carrot had no other effect except dangling in front of their eyes.

The two held their breaths as they watched the crowd recede, squatting in the collapsed earthen pit, Qi Yantang turned his head and asked his sister:

"what happened?"

Tears rolled in the girl's eyes, she stretched out her small hand to touch her brother's blue and white slightly sunken cheek, Xiao Yantang was stunned for a moment, then laughed:

"In a hurry, I haven't washed it for many days..."

Xiao Yanwei shook her head, then took out a cloth bag from her bosom, which contained tightly pressed steamed buns, and counted about seven of them.Qi Yantang's complexion changed, and he said anxiously:

"Why don't you eat?" With so much left, it must have been a long time since I ate.

"I'm a girl, I have a small appetite, a little is enough...I've been waiting for you to come back every day, and every day when someone comes to throw me steamed buns, I grab him and ask where you are, but unfortunately that person was cut Tongue, and then I counted, counting from dawn to dusk, you never came back..." Tears finally rolled out, she held her breath, and rubbed the corners of her eyes with the rough linen cloth of her wrist, and then from A few words came out of the trembling throat:

"Just...today...no...tomorrow...you...come back, come back...must...hungry...hungry..."

She is not afraid that no one will bring her food, but she is always afraid that the person who brings her the next day will be Qi Yantang's body.The fear of the speculation kept the hunger away.

Qi Yantang just gritted his teeth and looked at her, her tears, her stubbornness, then picked up the steamed buns that might have gone bad in the cloth bag, and swallowed them in big mouthfuls.

--------

Famine, plague, war.

They wandered for two months, and finally escaped the flames of war, but they did not escape the hunger and cold that accompanied them everywhere.It's late autumn now, and they escaped the rebellion outside by hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. The winter outside the city is very early, the snow has not yet fallen, but there is frost everywhere, and the forest is so quiet that there are not even a bird's shadow. Only then led Qi Yanwei, who was getting weaker and weaker, to look for people.

It was a village built on a mountain, the road from the foot of the mountain to the top was icy cold, passing countless bare tree branches, Qi Yantang knocked on the door from house to house.

Two of the ten families were willing to open the door to him, and one of the two families was willing to give him food on the condition that he sell Qi Yanwei to them.If Qi Yanwei hadn't been sleeping on her brother's back, she would have agreed, but it was Qi Yantang who was in charge, and the hungry and out of breath young man viciously dumped the lewd-eyed old man. With a knife in his eyes, he took out the strength he didn't know where to rub it and it disappeared.

He had thought about teaching his sister the newly learned method of breathing and exhaling, but Qi Yanwei, who didn't know the acupuncture points of the human body, was extremely dangerous to learn, and the effect was mediocre, so he had no choice but to delay this matter.

"Brother, let me down, I can walk." The little girl who woke up and found herself sleeping on Qi Yantang's back immediately struggled to get down.Qi Yantang glared at her with a straight face, she was still restless, twisted a few times and fell to the ground, looked at her brother sighing in favor, tried to take two steps, the steps were extremely weak, and finally looked like a koala Grab it on her brother's arm and move up bit by bit.

Qi Yantang couldn't understand her sour little thoughts, since she took out the steamed buns that she had been reluctant to eat, or even earlier, he didn't dare to take all the weight of life for her lightly, he was afraid that she would hate him, really afraid.

"Brother, this place is so beautiful." Qi Yanwei staggered and climbed up a step.

"There's nothing beautiful about a blade of grass." His hands had nothing to do with being thick, but they carried a calmness that the world couldn't shake.

Qi Yanwei pouted:

"There are so many trees, so many mountains, it must be very beautiful in spring... It would be great if we built our home here."

Qi Yantang ignored her, his throat constricted tensely, and he tightened his grip on his sister's hand.

".....Brother..." Xiao Yanwei spoke in a discussing tone, but she didn't get a look from her brother.

"Brother, my good brother...I strangled Mao Mao..." Her voice was so low and clear:

"When I put my hand on its throat... I know... people..." Always let go.

"Shut up! If you keep talking, you will come up!"

Xiao Yanwei was not intimidated by him, she bent her innocent eyebrows, smiled sweetly and innocently, her fingers sank deeply into the sackcloth at Qi Yantang's elbow, she seemed to tear the clothes with great strength.

The two of them walked up the stairs, one by one, and the top of the mountain seemed to be covered in clouds, and flowers seemed to be blooming in the fog. Qi Yantang looked up, as if he saw that spring was coming early, and the wind was not so cool.

This was the last family in the village, and he knocked on the door in a dull mood.

----------

It was a young man who opened the door, his face froze when he saw the two little beggars at the door with an irritable and bored expression.

"Can you... give me something to eat, I can work..." Qi Yantang squeezed out these words from his cracked and bleeding lips, trembling as if he hadn't moved his throat in 100 years.

Seeing the young man stunned, Qi Yantang swallowed his saliva and hastily added:

"Just give it to my sister. I can work, and I can do anything!"

His hands and feet seemed to be trembling because of this last hope, or maybe it was too cold on the mountain, Qi Yantang didn't know, but the only thing he knew was that if the family also refused, then the two brothers and sisters would really be able to live in this beautiful place. As for the matter that the bearded man begged, it will have to be done in the next life.

Oddly enough, the boy actually let them in.The surprise was too sudden, Qi Yantang drifted as if stepping on clouds along the way, until the boy reached out to take Qi Yanwei who had passed out in his arms, he just woke up like a dream, and instinctively greeted her with a fist.

The young man was unprepared and was hit hard, with a sore nose and tears in his eyes, he asked:

"Did you take the wrong medicine?!"

He jumped up in shock, and apologized repeatedly, his bewildered look made the young man who was about to have an attack choke back his anger.

The young man held back for a while, then shouted loudly:

"mother!"

Qi Yantang followed his line of sight, a woman walked in with a bamboo basket, and said angrily as she walked:

"Shouting the soul so loudly!"

When the woman saw two more children in the room, her expression froze.This is reasonable, the famine has no regional discrimination at all, even if they can endure it, it doesn't mean they have the spare energy to feed their two children.

Food is life, after thinking about it, Qi Yantang didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

The woman glared at the boy, the boy looked awkward, and then gave his mother a flattering smile, the woman stretched for a while, sighed, put down the bamboo basket and came over:

"What's wrong with this girl?"

"Probably hungry."

Qi Yantang murmured for a long time without saying a word, and the young man took over the conversation.

"Go and get the rice cakes from the stove." The woman kicked her hapless son with her toes, and then set her eyes on Qi Yantang.

Qi Yantang was waiting for the verdict, and he had made plans to take Qi Yanwei away when he could breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect that the woman didn't say anything harsh in the end, but just touched his clumps of hair with her hands, He sighed heavily.

The seductive Mi Xiang woke up the unconscious girl. The woman put the white soft food near the girl's mouth, expecting the girl to bite with her mouth open. Who would have thought that the girl who hadn't woken up just took a small bite and raised her hand. She was about to grab the food near her mouth, but when the woman let go, she saw that the girl put the things in her hands into her arms, chanting words, and every word was "Brother".

Qi Yantang's eyes turned hot, and he pulled the corners of his lips at the stunned mother and son in apology, and then pulled out Qi Yanwei's hand to comfort:

"Brother, eat it, eat it, eat it quickly, or I will get angry!" He grabbed the cube she was holding tightly and stuffed it into her mouth.

...................

"You've got a lot of skill, send one away and welcome the two back in one go, how much food is left at home?" The door was ajar, and the voice from inside stopped Qi Yantang.

"It's not just two little ones, I have a sense of proportion."

"You're really used to being a young master!"

"This is the last family of ours. If you drive those two little things away, you can't starve them to death? It's not like you don't know the virtues of other people in the village. Are you willing to be this executioner?"

"You... oh..."

Qi Yantang returned to Qi Yanwei's bed, listened to her long breathing and then concentrated on looking at his toes, turning a blind eye to the food that the mother and son kindly brought on the table.After sitting for a while, he jumped out of bed and ran into the yard.

When the boy came back to the room, he found that the things on the table had not been moved, and the little bastard had disappeared. The boy frowned in displeasure, rolled up his sleeves, and walked out. He didn't take two steps and stopped. He saw that figure Qi Yantang, who was not as tall as his water tank, poured water into it bucket by bucket.

Where do you think this baby gets her strength from?

The young man stepped forward and snatched the bucket from his hand, glared at him and asked in a vicious voice:

"Have you eaten?"

Qi Yantang took the barrel back and walked towards the well, and replied as he walked:

"I'm not hungry."

Not hungry for a grandma!The young man spat secretly, fixed that stubborn back for a long time, let go and walked into the house again, when he came back, he was carrying a plate full of rice cakes, pulled Qi Yantang over and stuffed one into his mouth without saying a word.

Qi Yantang raised his head and stared at him, there was a thunderous sound in his stomach, he really slapped the words just now, with embarrassment on his face, he began to chew the things in his mouth embarrassingly.

The boy proudly watched the bastard eat his ration bit by bit, patted him on the back to make him roll away, and then continued his unfinished work, filling the water tank with water.Qi Yantang looked at the boy in bewilderment, perhaps he had never been so bewildered in his life.

This kid has a conscience, so he left two for him. The boy pulled Qi Yantang and sat down on the steps in front of the house, uttering vague questions from his stuffed mouth:

"Boy, what's your name?"

What I said just now, Qi Yantang was not angry, and replied again:

"Qi Yantang."

"Where did it come from?"

Qi Yantang just glanced at him, and he said the first time they met, the young man moved his throat, swallowed what was in his mouth, and grinned:

"Don't forget it."

"Fan County."

The boy was stunned again:

"It's quite far away." Without the first surprise, the voice was almost a sigh.

"Ah."

The two sat side by side on the steps for a long time. It was not until the mistress grabbed the broom and made a gesture to drive away that the two half-grown boys rushed into the house. While running, they heard the woman complaining:

"How many times have I said that you can't sit on the steps, your ears are for nothing!"

Not seeing the bitter envy in Qi Yantang's eyes, the young man grabbed his ears with a bitter face, looking unbearable.

Qi Yanwei opened her eyes and saw her brother's straight back, blinked and called out:

"Brother?" She was sleeping on the bed, her body was still warm, and her brother was beside her, and it seemed like a dream for a while.

Qi Yantang was taken aback, then turned around and stroked her temples, smiling:

"Wake up." He pinched her armpit and hugged her, "We should say goodbye."

Qi Yanwei blinked, and said oh, her tone was a little low.

When the two walked to the main house, Qi Yanwei saw the two strangers seem a little timid, and shrank behind her brother without a trace, Qi Yantang pulled her out, and said in a low voice:

"Weir, kneel down."

Qi Yanwei was taken aback for a moment, before she woke up, she was torn off by Qi Yantang, and she knelt side by side with him in front of the two people in the room.Her brother's tone was blunt, and she didn't dare to complain about the hard and cold floor for a while, and the kneecaps hurt.

The young man was obviously stunned when he saw the two people who kowtowed without saying a word, and instinctively stepped forward to pull them up, Qi Yantang dodged, and thanked in a deep voice:

"The kindness you two will never be forgotten. I, Qi Yantang, have nothing I can do to repay you now, but there is one thing I can do. My sister and I will bid farewell now..."

"Fart farewell!" The young man interrupted harshly, "Not to mention the turmoil outside, you turn your head and look out of the window now, the whole mountain can be flooded with snow in less than two cups of tea, are you looking for death and dragging your sister along with you? ?”

Qi Yantang took a closer look, and it was really the first snow falling outside, his lips were pursed white, he turned his eyes to Qi Yanwei's face after regaining consciousness, her face was as stubborn as his own, but she couldn't hide her haggard and paleness at all. .Qi Yantang gritted his teeth, the decisive words just stuck in his throat, the corners of his eyes were a little hot, shame and guilt once again tormented his internal organs.

"Your name is Qi Yantang, what about this girl?"

"Qi Yanwei."

"Xiao Wei'er, come here, don't make a fuss with that donkey brother of yours."

Qi Yanwei grasped her brother's hand tightly and did not make a sound.

"Hey, I'm knocking my head. Call me godmother. It's a sad day. You two have already eaten the meeting gift, so don't worry about it. I don't want your tea either." The woman got up from her seat and stepped forward. Pulling Qi Yanwei over, ignoring her son's overjoyed expression, he combed Qi Yanwei's hair with his fingers:

"At that time, I was thinking about this brat for a few years, it would be great if he was a girl...Xiao Weier, how about your mother-in-law?" The woman pinched Qi Yanwei's thin, fleshless face , asked expectantly.

The little girl only knew to look at her brother.

She didn't know whether her sleep was long or short, and after eating something random, she lay down for two days and two nights. During these two days and two nights, the young man had been lobbying his mother to keep these two poor babies. It is said that he is naturally soft-hearted, or that he has never met such a congenial person.

Before the two of them entered the house, they were still struggling with this issue, but now his mother finally let go, why isn't the boy overjoyed, and immediately kicked Qi Yantang who had a dazed expression and said anxiously:

"Silly boy, call your mother, hurry up!"

Qi Yantang yelled chaotically, and only after he yelled did he realize what he had said, and when he turned his head and saw the toothless smiling face of the young man, he became even more at a loss for a while.

It took a long time for Gu Anluo to recall that the reason why he recognized the two children who met by chance was actually very complicated.One is that he was young and frivolous, and the greatest suffering in his life was that he had to be ruthless and dismiss the servants at home. The other was that his father died early. He never thought that the kind of calmness and dignity that should exist in the eyes of his parents that he had always yearned for You will see it in a child younger than yourself.He didn't even dare to ask how much life had given him. The complex emotions of pity and reverence fermented and swelled in his chest, and he felt the urgency of growth at that strange moment.

The two siblings surnamed Qi had a real family for the first time in their lives, and they stayed for several years.

At the end of the day, the two mothers and sons of the Gu family didn't complain to Qi Yantang and his siblings. Gu Anluo just picked up the basket and headed towards the forest in a muffled voice. Qi Yantang stopped him before he left and refused to let him go alone.His mother is actually very contradictory. First, let her son go alone, even if he promises not to go further, she can't help but feel uneasy. It's better to have someone to accompany him; second, Qi Yantang is indeed too young to go. Needless to say, it might be easy to go wrong, who would have thought that Qi Yantang would make a positive promise:

"I have experience, I am good at hunting."

Gu Anluo laughed angrily:

"Why, you started hunting from the womb, children go!"

"Seven years old, I have been into the mountains many times, and I have more experience than you." He emphasized.

These words made both mother and son speechless, Aunt Gu held Xiao Yanwei in her arms and watched them go away at the door.

The snow was knee-high, soft and white, and the snow flakes fell from the pine needles and penetrated into the back of the neck, making it cool and itchy. Gu Anluo touched the back of his neck uncomfortably, and looked at the child who was walking faster than him, wondering asked:

"You are familiar with the forest where you can hunt for food, how did you end up in this situation?"

Qi Yantang paused, turned around and looked at him, pursed his lips and didn't answer, but Gu Anluo knew that he asked a stupid question, who can go anywhere with peace of mind after dragging an oil bottle?

The forest was empty, birds and birds refused to land, they searched in vain for a long time, Gu Anluo wiped his face in frustration, but seeing Qi Yantang raised his hand to beckon, he hurried over.

Suddenly snow fluttered in the sky, and he was shocked by the cold wind.Qi Yantang took off the bamboo basket, untied his belt and tied it, took a tree branch and set up a trap, then the cat retracted his waist, and Gu Anluo took a closer look, and there were pine nuts under the basket.

"What about catching squirrels?"

"Maybe it's a bird."

"They don't eat that stuff."

"Wait and see, why don't you eat when you're so hungry?" If he was the person he was a few days ago, he would be able to catch these few pine cones.

Fluttering——Gu Anluo watched the birds plunge into the basket in silence, and even knocked over the bracket in a hurry.Qi Yantang smiled at him proudly, stood up leisurely and walked over to collect his spoils.

Then, the upside-down pheasant was pulled out like a radish, and even its eggs buried in the snow nest were touched by them several times, and even Qi Yantang took Gu Anluo to catch two hibernating snakes.He was terrified when he saw this, the poisonous snake that was forcibly pulled up is not easy to provoke, Qi Yantang is young, the movement of probing his hand is precise and fierce, and the position of the seven inches is exactly the same, it is almost a daze, and the snake is limp Lie down.

Their return with full rewards stunned the ancient mother. She looked at her son with a happy face and knew how much credit he had for this.That night they cooked a chicken in the pot, and marinated the rest of the meat for storage. It was the first time in a long time that they had a lively meal.This is true for the deserted Gu family, and even more so for the brothers and sisters who have been wandering for a long time.

However, the good times didn't last long. Naturally, some people were envious of the sweetness they gained, and the fear of the winter mountains and forests disappeared. People from the village began to enter the mountains in groups, and the scarce food was looted.Qi Gu and the two naturally looked ugly, and the scope of hunting became wider and wider, and they walked deeper and deeper into the forest.

With his courage and skill, he managed to avoid the danger by chance, and he survived this winter even if he endured all kinds of hardships.However, there is little rain in spring, and the coming year will be another famine year.

The flowers in Taoyuan Village are flourishing, but this is not a good thing. When the flowers are full, they will absorb more nutrients, and the food will not grow. When the flowers wither and become fat, the time for sowing has passed, which is very sad. everyone.

Qi Yanwei followed Aunt Gu to learn how to sew and mend, and fiercely gave her brother four pairs of thick-soled shoes. She always offered her treasures to Qi Yantang to ask for credit, but her brother only saw the new wound on top of the old one. Mixed feelings do not know bittersweet.

It was also at this time that the imperial conscription notice was finally posted in this remote village.
