Suddenly a piece of porcelain fell to the ground with a clang in the air, and white jade-like fragments flew everywhere. The tongue of fire greedily licked the delicate silk yarn, and instantly it burst into flames. It seemed to be showing off its power, climbing and spreading wantonly, filling the room. The green smoke was so choking that people couldn't breathe. Shi Hua opened her eyes wide and searched desperately for an exit, but the fire was so strong that the smoke made her eyes hurt, like needles. Tears kept pouring out, and she finally found the door leaf. , before she could open it, a strong hand pulled her back.
The man's drunken voice rang out in the raging fire: "Hua'er, Gu has always loved you the most. I originally waited for the Crown Princess to go and straightened you up, but I didn't expect that you are in this situation now. Don't blame me. Gu, if you want to blame me, blame that damn Xie Ling. If it weren't for him, how could Gu have ended up in this situation? Hua'er, I really can't bear to leave you, why don't you just go with Gu? When you get down there, Gu will treat you well. OK."
The man's voice was chattering and talking a lot, as if separated by a layer of gauze. Shi Hua couldn't hear clearly. Thick green smoke filled the air and poured into her mouth and nose, making it difficult to breathe. She was like a drowning fish. She desperately inhaled, but was choked by the thick smoke and coughed. She couldn't even curse a few words. Her slender arms were tightly held by the man, making her suspect that she was almost broken in two.
The fireworks are getting thicker and thicker, and nothing can be seen in the whole house. Only the tongues of fire are licking greedily. The originally exquisite furnishings are now the last fire, as if they are desperately shouting, burn well, Be more enthusiastic! The scalding temperature dragged Shi Hua into a coma. Her struggling hands gradually lost strength, and her consciousness began to blur
Her cheeks were burning, as if her skin was about to melt. Shi Hua felt pain and couldn't help but stretched out her hands to cover her face. She woke up in a daze, and when she opened her eyes, the intense sunlight hit her. As soon as they entered the eyes, tears rushed out, and the vision suddenly became blurry.
what happened? Am I saved?
Shi Hua slowly sat up, and her eyes first fell on the thin hand. It was not like an adult's hand at all. It was small, as thin as a hemp stick, and the nails were covered with dirt. I don¡¯t know how long I haven¡¯t washed it.
Whose hand is this?
Shi Hua looked left and right for a long time before confirming that this black and thin hand was her own. Wait, isn't she dead?
As soon as Shi Hua sat up, the scene in front of her was taken into account. It was familiar yet extremely unfamiliar. The dilapidated thatched roof, the stone mill with a gap in front of the door, the crooked thatched shed, and the yard was full of overgrown grass. There are weeds here and there, this is clearly her childhood home.
Shi Hua slipped down from the haystack unskillfully and ran straight to the house. However, she didn't expect that she had shrunk. Her steps were too short. Before she could cross the threshold, she tripped and fell onto the ground. On the ground, there was a rustling movement in the house, as if someone was moving. Shi Hua pricked his ears and listened to the sound with bated breath.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps came over and settled in front of Shi Hua's eyes. They were a pair of worn-out straw sandals. She raised her eyes and looked up, and shouted in uncertainty: "Brother?"
The owner of the straw sandals was a young man. He glanced down at her and then turned away, as if he didn't dare to look at her. He said vaguely: "Ah Jiu, I'm going out for a trip. I'll be back soon."
As he spoke, he stepped over Shi Hua and hurried outside. Shi Hua was stunned for a moment before she quickly got up and stumbled out the door. She was so eager that she almost tripped over the threshold again.
Shi Hua chased her to the courtyard gate in a few steps. Her brother's back had turned into a dot the size of a finger. He was running too fast, his pace was hasty and panicked. Shi Hua couldn't help but raise his voice and shouted: "Brother!¡ª¡ª"
The child's desperate cry was accompanied by a slight tremor that was not easily noticeable, and the final note changed its tone, revealing a sense of heart-wrenching despair. It echoed among the mountain cols, making it inexplicably desolate.
The young man¡¯s steps slowed down at first, before Shi Hua could be surprised, and then accelerated again, and walked away without looking back, as if he was running away.
Shi Hua was like a wooden stake, stuck at the door of the courtyard. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time. Her brother left again, took the last food in the family, abandoned her, and fled by himself. He didn't even give any warning before leaving. Just tell her, I'll be back soon.
That's it.
Shi Hua's heart was rolling, she clenched her teeth, and watched the figure disappear at the mountain col, until her eyes were sore, the young man did not look back, she was abandoned again, Shi Hua thought indifferently, and then turned around and entered without any hesitation. room.
At this time, she was still Ajiu, just an orphan in Wucun. Her father died and her mother married another woman. During the drought, sheHe went to the house and came out after a while. The dustpan in his hand was gone. He just said: "He is discussing things in the ancestral hall. You can go there and look for him."
Shi Hua said, ¡°Thank you very much, auntie.¡±
As she said that, she walked towards the ancestral hall again. Not long after, she saw the gate of the ancestral hall in front of her. The door was open. When she entered the yard, she saw that it was crowded with people, all of whom were young and strong men from the village, about 30 years old. One stands, one sits, one sits.
The old village chief stood above him. When he saw Shi Hua coming, he asked, "Where is your brother? I informed him yesterday that when I came to the ancestral hall this evening, I didn't see anyone. Where did he go?"
Shi Hua replied: "My brother is gone. He said he was going on a far journey."
After hearing this, everyone was stunned and started talking one after another. The old village chief frowned slightly and immediately understood what was going on. A man next to him said bluntly: "Did the third child of the Gengzi family run away on his own? "
Someone said: "This heartless person is lucky that we still think about his family."
Someone else asked: "Geng Er, don't you know about this?"
Geng Er is Shi Hua¡¯s biological uncle. He was also sitting in the corner of the yard. Hearing someone ask him, he replied slowly: "How do I know?"
Shi Hua didn¡¯t say anything. The old village chief above him tapped his cane and raised his voice: ¡°Be quiet first.¡±
Those voices gradually became quieter. The old village chief looked around at everyone. After a while, he said: "I have made it clear to everyone the pros and cons. All the villages in the ten miles and eight townships have disappeared. Before you If you don't want to leave, we are the only one left in the village now. If you don't want to leave, just stay. We still have roots in our village. Those who want to leave should go back to pack their things tonight and come to the ancestral hall tomorrow morning. .¡±
After hearing these words, everyone dispersed one after another. The old village chief walked at the end and slowly locked the door of the ancestral hall. Seeing Shi Hua still standing at the door, he asked, "Why don't you go back?"
Shi Hua said: "Grandpa, village chief, are we going south or north?"
She came to the village chief just for this matter. Their village is located in the northwest of Daqian Dynasty. In their previous life, they chose to go north. They originally thought that the north would be closer and there were more prefectures and counties. It's the capital, which is at the feet of the emperor, so it's naturally better.
But only Shi Hua knew that it was absolutely impossible to go north. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
