Axi is a five-year-old girl.
But in the eyes of outsiders, she is a five-year-old boy, or a skinny, bareheaded boy who can count his ribs at a glance.
She has lived in the Heze tribe since she can remember.
As a slave.
She lived in a low cave called the slave cave. Her favorite thing to do was to sit in the shadow of the cave and look out with wide eyes. Look at those black Ze children in clean linen clothes, strong as a calf, running in the sun and laughing wantonly.
She envies and yearns.
How happy they are, she thought.
It's so happy that you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, you don't have to be beaten, and you can run at will.
A Xi likes to hide in the dark corner to see them - even if they can't do them, it's good to have a look.
But today, she couldn't see what she wanted to see. I don't know why, heize's children are all gone, not only the children, not even the adults, the outside is open.
"Ah Xi, come and help me pick out the pus!" In the dark cave, came a hoarse woman's voice.
Axi got up and walked slowly into the dark cave.
She passed many people lying on the ground, sleeping with their eyes closed. These people, like her, were slaves. The reason why they slept in broad daylight was because they were hungry and had no strength, or because they had been beaten and were recovering from injuries with their eyes closed.
This small cave is always dark and lifeless, filled with a smell of excrement, and the more you go in, the greater the taste, you can't help but cover your nose. It's totally different from the bright sunshine and fresh air outside. It's totally two worlds.
The cave is very small, a Xi did not walk a few steps to call her in front of the woman. As like as two peas,
is a teenage woman. Her name is called grass bird. Her sister is not the same as her elder sister. Now she was lying on a ragged animal skin, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her dirty skin was full of whip marks.
These whips were received a few days ago, and the wounds were purulent, mixed with the flesh and blood, giving off a foul smell.
The grass sparrow saw a Xi come over, gasping for breath, weak and vicious to her low roar: "you have no heart small animal! Dirty and disgusting reptiles! So fond of watching hazel? Yeah? Do you want to be a member of the heize tribe? "
"I'm sorry I didn't strangle you! I'll save food for you
Because of suffering for a long time, the grass finch's mentality also changed greatly because of the collapse, and often said evil words to his sister.
Ah HSI lowered her head and said nothing.
The dirty hair sticks down in strands, and the thin neck seems to be unable to hold the big head at any time and snap off.
“…… You remember! You are from the wolf tooth tribe! It's from the wolf tooth tribe The sparrow shrieked and looked terrible.
Ashi did not speak.
She doesn't like the wolf tooth tribe. In her heart, the name represents meanness and misfortune. If she could, she really wanted to be a member of the haze tribe, not the wolf tooth tribe.
The grass sparrow scolded a little better, waved to a Xi and called out: "don't come over and help me pick out the pus!"
Ah HSI walked over with her head down and helped her elder sister pick up pus with sharpened bone residue.
The whiplash marks on the grass sparrow are shocking, and the disgusting pus bubbles make it look particularly ferocious. However, Axi has no idea. She just lowers her head and carefully pricks it with pus.
She knew how her sister-in-law got the marks.
Two days ago, her elder sister's slightly protruding stomach just shriveled down, there were heize people running to pick her up and then press her down. Her elder sister lay naked on the dirty mud floor with her hands flailing feebly. Maybe it was too painful, so she grabbed the man's back and accidentally broke his skin.
The heize man was angry and gave her elder sister a few lashes with a whip. But her elder sister can only lie on the dirty ground and wriggle like a worm.
She was not far away, crouching in the dark with her knees in her arms, watching the scene with wide eyes.
This scene is very common. At this time, she would give up her admiration and begin to hate the Heze tribesmen, hoping that they would all die.
But what is the use of envy or hatred?
No matter what they think, the heize people are still living well, and they can't be the Heze tribesmen.
But the same days have changed today.
After she had just picked out the pus for her elder sister, a few black Ze soldiers came in coldly, pointing out that all the wolf tooth people in the small cave should come out.
A small Lengleng Leng ground follows elder sister to go out.
Her elder sister is very afraid, has been holding her hand tightly, the palm is sweating, the body is shivering like a sieve.
A large group of Blackpool fighters were waiting for them at the end.
She had never seen so many black Ze soldiers, so oppressive, they all looked at them with cold and malicious eyes, as if to cut off their heads.Ah HSI Bu thought that something "very bad" was going to happen.
But it didn't.
They were led to the center of the crowd, and there were a few people standing there who were particularly noble at first sight, and the extremely noble Kurosawa even put his hand on their forehead one by one.
She washed off the blue patterns on her forehead with water, and left the heize tribe with two soldiers who looked very powerful and noble. Muddleheaded to a particularly beautiful place, more beautiful than the heize tribe.
A tribe called Tushan.
Her sister has never been so happy.
Just kneeling on the grass, holding her, crying, howling and laughing, made her bones ache.
"Ah Xi, we are no longer slaves! You don't have to pretend to be a boy anymore The grassfinch said to her, choking with tears.
Not a slave?
A Xi listened to the adults' conversation and knew that she was now a Tushan tribesman.
At that time she didn't know what it meant.
But she seemed to understand when the hot, seductive food was brought to them.
"These Is it for us to eat? "
She opened her eyes wide and asked the aunt who brought the food carefully.
This aunt is called pheasant. It is said that she was once a member of the wolf tooth tribe. However, she is totally different from the wolf tooth tribe in her impression.
She looked beautiful. Her arms were strong, her muscles were strong, her cheeks were flushed with health. She was wearing a clean and beautiful fur coat, and her nails were clean.
After she asked this question in a low voice, the aunt called pheasant suddenly burst into tears and said:
"you can eat as much as you want! Eat whatever you like
Ah Xi was stunned.
These foods are so good and fragrant that I'm afraid even the soldiers of heize can't eat them? Let her eat at will?!
She was almost wolfing down the food, eating and eating, but the tears fell down and were swallowed in the mouth with the food. Not only she, but almost all the wolf toothed men who came out of the slave hole in heize were eating with tears.
It was not until her stomach burst that she stopped.
The pheasant aunt took her hand and took all the wolf teeth to the stream to wash.
When he saw the clear river, he couldn't help but start to stay.
It's the beginning of the dry season. The heize tribe has begun to save water. Slaves like them only drink water, and there is no water to wash their faces.
But "pheasant aunt" said the stream was safe and could be cleaned at will.
ASI was so happy when she came back to her senses.
With her full belly in her hand, she ran to the stream like other children in heize, and then stood in the shallow stream, splashing and washing herself.
The clear stream took away the dirt, the sewage was washed away, and an extremely clean ah Xi came out of the stream.
Then they were taken to rest in the tall stone house.
She and her sister-in-law were assigned to the same stone house. In this huge, clean and tidy stone house, only she and her elder sister lived together.
Axi climbed up the stone Kang with almost the same hands and feet.
When she lay clean on the soft fur blanket, nestled with her sister-in-law, stroked her full, warm stomach, she was still in a state of confusion.
Is it true?
Is it because she was so eager that she lost her mind and made a very real dream?
She did not dare to close her eyes, and tried to resist the drowsiness of her body, so she opened her eyes and looked straight at the dark void. I'm afraid that if I wake up, I'll go back to that dirty and stinking slave hole.
Holding on to the soft fur blanket, she kept praying.
If it's a dream, please don't wake up.
Don't wake up.
Don't wake up.
Don't wake up
