Chapter 531

In August, the forests of Wolong peak are dyed. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, green to golden, they are rendered layer by layer, and the reflected sunlight is somewhat dazzling.

Looking at the scenery with my hands on my back, I watched Su Tong negotiate with the guard of the mountain leisurely. I had been waiting for four months. I didn't care to wait so much longer.

Clouds rose in the mountains, which made me feel a little trance in front of me. It seemed that when I first saw her more than 20 years ago, she stood in the bow of the boat, and the sun shone behind her, which was too bright for people to face.

My family is in a small village at the foot of Haiyue mountain. The village belongs to a family. My family is a middle-class family in the village, with 40 mu of land. Although it is mountainous, with the production on the mountain, life is not bad. I am the only son of the family, and I grew up in the palm of my mother's hand since childhood. I also sent out shuxiu to let me go to a private school in a larger village for a month.

Unfortunately, at that time, I felt that it was too tired to walk so far to school every day. It was far better to have fun at home. After only a month, I didn't learn a few big words, so I was unwilling to go. My parents let me wander at home.

I have grown up well since childhood. Not only the little girls in the village like to play with me, but also the girls in the surrounding villages often send me handkerchiefs and snacks.

At that time, I thought that my life was to marry a beautiful girl from the neighboring village, have a bunch of children, and take over the land left by my parents, which was in that mountain corner for a lifetime.

In that year, due to the severe drought, the fields were cracked, and all the springs on the mountain were dry. The mountain was not rich in production, and there was no harvest that year, and then there was no water to drink.

The village began to die, and people began to flee in succession. My father said to wait a little longer, maybe it would rain, but after waiting for two days, the village had a plague because of the high fever.

Afraid that the soldiers would seal the village, there would be no way to survive. My father left his sick mother, took all the property of the family, and took me to flee with the people in the village.

At that time, I didn't know that I was going out to escape. My father coaxed me to borrow some food from my maternal grandfather's house. On the way, I realized that my father had lost my mother and escaped from the disaster. So I ran away from my father to the village. My mother has always loved me. How can I leave her in the village and wait for death? Even if I do, I will carry her out.

Before arriving at the village, I saw that everyone was lit up on the other side of the village, and many soldiers were guarding the entrance of the village. When they asked, I lied that I came from another village to visit relatives, and asked what happened. The soldier said in an indifferent tone at that time that there was a plague in the village, and everyone died. In order to prevent proliferation, the village was going to be burned.

I climbed up the big tree on the mountain and watched the yard that my parents had taken care of for so many years burn to ashes. They said that the people in the village were dead, but my mother was clearly just beginning to get sick.

Later, I learned that those soldiers would kill those who remained in the village as soon as they entered the village. They were dead.

After crying all night, I thought of looking for my father and the villagers, but when I walked back to where I was, there was already no one there, and they had already left. I thought of what the villagers said on the road, they were going to the seaside, to the big river, where there was water, and there should be a way to live, so I also went there.

My father took all the money and the food left at home, and I had nothing. Fortunately, I used to like running around in the fields and mountains. I knew what I could eat. Along the way, I dug roots and picked leaves, and even learned to eat a kind of edible soil with an uncle.

On the way, I met the girl in the neighboring village who often handed me a handkerchief, but before I got close, her parents drove me away. I knew that at that time, everyone could only take care of their own family and eat a little. I was also a young man who could eat and do much. His family could not take me in.

But what makes me sad is that the girl doesn't know me. In fact, I don't expect them to give me some food or water. I just hope she can smile at me and I'm satisfied, but she turned her head and turned her back to me with disgust.

I know I didn't look good at that time. I was ragged and ashen. It would be good if a little water could moisten my throat. How could I wash my face and hands?

I have also met people in the neighboring village, and I have met several girls who used to be friendly and say they love me. Only one girl extended a helping hand to me. She gave me half a cake, and her parents only sighed and gave me a bowl of water. I only touched a little of the water. Their family is not in good condition, and there are several younger brothers. The water they brought is almost finished. I am embarrassed to ask for their things.

Alone, I followed some people who could keep up, eating insects, grass roots and dew in the morning. I walked for a month and arrived in Haizhou when I was almost unable to hold on.

Haizhou is not like what the villagers say is a place with a way to live. Haizhou has also been severely affected and food is extremely scarce. Fortunately, there is water.

The refugees in Haizhou were driven out of the city. There were many gathering places in the wild. I looked for them one by one. Although I was extremely disappointed, my father was my only relative.

I asked the location of the people in the village. Although many people died on the road, some people in the village survived to Haizhou, including my father.

I went to the seaside to wash myself clean, cleaned myself up and went to the gathering place where the villagers were located.

My father was indeed alive, but there was a beautiful woman with children around him, and the food in the village at that time was completely gone. My father saw me without a trace of joy, but in his eyes, I saw a look of disgust.

It seems to be saying why you haven't died yet. Now where is food for you?

auzw. But his dislike immediately turned into joy. Www. 68mn.

The Ling family came to buy people.

I didn't let my father sell me. I sold myself and gave the food to the girl's family so that they could keep the girl.

The young girls selected are all good-looking and somewhat beautiful people. Even I can understand why I bought them.

When I gave the food to the family, my father rushed up angrily and grabbed it. The leading official asked me if I was my father as he said? I denied it.

People in the neighboring village also said that we had nothing to do with each other. I came here alone.

I pressed my handprint. At that time, I said to myself in my heart, you have no relatives, and there will be no relatives since then.

There are many young people in the line. Several of them cried very hard. I couldn't help laughing at them. They asked me, can you stand it? Do you know where we are going to be sold? Do you know what waiter does?

At that time, I gave up on myself and felt that it didn't matter to go there, but it was just selling my body. As long as I could live, I even drank my own urine, and there was nothing I couldn't stand.

But later, when I really understood it, I realized how lucky we were at that time. We were bought by Ling Jia and she.

The cabin was full of people, and everyone had the joy of surviving the disaster on their faces. Originally, they thought that it would be best to have a moldy meal with a little water, but what they brought up was rice porridge cooked thick and fragrant.

Not long after boarding the ship, a man with extremely cold eyes came in to pick people. He picked orphans aged five or six. Those children didn't expect their lives to change at that time.

But I didn't want anything at that time. I just ate when I had to eat and slept when I didn't have to eat until I heard that our master, the girl jumped into the sea and killed a huge sea monster. Then, that night, we ate a delicious food we had never tasted before.

I heard those young men say that she killed the sea monster for us. She couldn't help laughing in her heart. How could there be such a person for us? Relatives can be discarded at will, how can they take risks for others.

After eating the delicious food called whale meat for a few days, my face returned to its former whiteness, and my body was no longer as thin as a wood. I couldn't see it at all, as were other teenagers. Then one day, a teenager whispered my doubts.

Let's eat so well, just want to look good and sell money?

After arriving in Hangzhou, the Ling family didn't send anyone to escort the people on the ship to the weaving workshop. Then in the city, someone began to run away. When they saw the Ling family sailors, they didn't see them, and more people ran away.

A boy who knew each other in the neighboring village also wanted to escape. He said he didn't want to be sold into such a place, and he didn't want to live without a person all his life.

He and some other teenagers escaped, but I didn't.

Live like a human? I don't know what a person is anymore

In my life, I have done the three most correct things.

First, I sold myself to the Ling family at that time.

Second, I didn't run away in the intentional drainage of the Ling family.

Third... I fell in love with her

She chose the rest of us young girls and the children selected by Yan Sanye to choose another name, although the name acquisition was extremely irresponsible.

I like my new name, Styrax... It sounds good to read, and it's also the name of fragrance that can cure diseases. Later, I saw Styrax tree, which is a tall tree with large straight branches and luxuriant leaves, but with a graceful posture. People say that people are like their names. The name she gave me has been trying to conform to its meaning all my life.

At that time, there were twelve people. She picked six of us first and took them on board. At that time, the few people left behind were secretly happy. Our ancestors were farmers facing the Loess and went to sea. At that time, our hearts were an extremely dangerous place. Going to sea since ancient times was dangerous work, not to mention going to sea. We also saw on board that there were not many crew members on the Aeolus, and the captain was still a girl.

Although this girl has shown her strength and strength.
