Sword Master Online Chapter 3: : Liu Yiyi
The old housekeeper has been driving the carriage on the official road for more than half a month. Along the way, the old man and Lu Yu told the story of their flattering and intrigue in officialdom for most of their lives. The purpose was to fear that Lu Yu was not deeply involved in the world, and he would not know it after being calculated. Although the old man still subconsciously believed that immortals were desperate and seeking the way, but the old man still told Lu Yu about the cruelty of the world for some reason, and let him judge right from wrong.
"Grandfather, do you say that there are more evil people than kind people in the world?" Lu Yu asked seriously.
"There is no distinction between good and evil. A kind person may do a lot of evil things, but others don’t know it; on the contrary, a heinous person may also do some good things, and others may not know it. So a bad person is a good person. There is no fixed limit." The old man replied calmly, twisting his beard.
"So there is no distinction between good and evil in the world?" Lu Yu asked still puzzled.
"Yes, the difference between good and evil lies in your heart. Your heart will be the only criterion for judging others and yourself. No matter how bad things some people do, they don’t think they are a bad person; some people just If you make a slight mistake in one thing, you will blame yourself for a long time." The old man still said calmly.
The old man wanted to continue talking about some truths, but suddenly the carriage stopped suddenly and the grandfather and grandson staggered and almost fell. I only heard the butler's trembling voice coming from outside the carriage.
"Master, there are many dead...dead people ahead."
Old man Lu was suddenly surprised when he heard this, is there a horse thief on the official road? But on the surface he still pretended to be calm and reprimanded: "Fu, you have been with me for so many years. I have never seen any big scenes, and a few dead people also scared you like this."
"Master, it's not a few dead people, but dozens..." The old butler calmed down a bit, and said nervously.
Master Lu felt relieved when he heard this. According to common sense, horse thieves generally would not kill so many people, not to mention that this is still on the official road.
Master Lu said to Lu Yu: "Yu'er, grandfather get out of the car and have a look. You stay in the car and don't run around."
Lu Yu shook his head and said, "Grandson, let's go with you."
Master Lu did not discourage him, and led Lu Yu out of the carriage. The carriage was parked on an avenue, and beside the road were strips of barren mud. Large corpses were lying on the muddy ground. Most of the corpses began to rot, and swarms of flies were flying on the corpses. When Lu Yu saw this scene before him, his face turned pale, he felt nauseated, and quickly went to the carriage and retched.
The old man looked at the vomiting grandson beside him, did not say anything, just patted Lu Yu gently on the back.
then walked towards the corpse closest to him. The old man used to be a county magistrate, and he often had to deal with these murder cases. Such scenes are also commonplace. After some investigation, the old man also had some preliminary judgments in his heart.
At this time, Lu Yu walked over here, his face slightly better than before. The old man couldn't help admiring his grandson a bit. When he saw this scene, he vomited for a whole day. He didn't expect that his grandson's adaptability was much better than his adult.
"Is it better?"
"Well, I thought I wouldn't be afraid before I got out of the car, but I didn't expect..." Lu Yu scratched his head awkwardly.
"Grandfather was not as good as you back then. I vomited all day." The old man patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and comforted.
"Grandfather, do you know how they died?" Lu Yu asked.
"Most of them were killed by blunt weapons, like sticks or axes." The old man said affirmatively. Then he pondered for a while, and continued: "And it looks like cannibalism."
Lu Yu didn't believe that so many people actually killed each other. He walked to the corpses and observed the wounds, and found that, as his grandfather said, they were all caused by sticks and axes.
Suddenly, he found a little girl exposed under the arm of a corpse. Her face was gray and black, her eyes were closed, and her mouth was red and purple. It's just that the mouth seems to have moved just now. He stopped and observed carefully, and found that the little girl's mouth was really moving, but her mouth was unusually dry and cracked, which was not easy to spot.
He hurried up and picked up the little girl, but he seemed to forget that he was also a child. I just hugged and walked for two or three steps, and I felt almost immobile. Called grandfather to come to help quickly. The old man was confessing something to the old housekeeper. He heard the grandson shouting, and quickly heard the reputation, only to see the grandson walking towards this side with a little girl in his arms. The old butler quickly rushed over, took the little girl, and the three put the little **** the carriage.
The old man touched the little girl's forehead with the back of his hand, feeling abnormally hot. He quickly said to the old butler: "Go back to the way you came and find a medical clinic in the small town we passed just now. This child is burning badly." The old butler responded, driving the three people in the carriage. Rushed to the road.
"Grandfather, what will happen to her." Lu Yu looked at the girl who was about his age, and handed the water bottle beside him to Grandpa Lu.
The old man took the kettle and put the spout into the girl’s cracked mouth. Watching the little girl subconsciously drinking the water, the old man sighed and said: "It's up to her good luck later."
Lu Yu listened to his grandfather's words, and could only silently stare at the little girl, unable to speak for a long while.
After a short period of time, the carriage stopped in front of the hospital, and the three people carried the little girl into the hospital. This stay was seven days. When the three of them came out again, the little girl could barely walk. The four of them drove the carriage toward the official road far away.
Seven days ago, the trio sent the little girl into the hospital.
After seeing the doctor, he prescribed some medicine, frowned and said to the three of them: "If the child is not awake within three days. Then I can't help it. Now I can only rely on her. "
The three had to stay in the hospital, waiting for the little girl to wake up. On the third night, when everyone was about to despair, the little girl finally woke up, but after only one glance at everyone, she fainted again. I'm dizzy again
one day and one night.
On the morning of the fifth day, the little girl woke up again, and Lu Yu brought a bowl of porridge to feed the little girl. The two children knew each other once they came and went. When the little girl learned that Lu Yu had rescued her, she knelt and knelt again in gratitude. Lu Yu was at a loss for a while. Only when the maid of the hospital came in and wanted to freshen up the little girl and change her dressing, Lu Yu had a chance to "escape". When I walked to the door, I remembered that I didn't even ask her her name.
After the maid had finished grooming the little girl, the old man took Lu Yu to visit the little girl. The little girl at this time looked very different from when she was rescued. The little girl saw that the two benefactors who pushed the door and entered, she quickly thought of getting out of bed. The old man hurriedly stopped the little girl and motioned to her to lie on the bed. Lu Yu moved a wooden stool and placed it next to the bed for his grandfather to sit on. He stood beside his grandfather.
"Girl, what's your name?" Grandfather asked kindly.
"My name is Liu Yiyi."
"In the past, I was gone, Yang Liu Yiyi. Today I think, Yuxuefei Fei. Liu Yiyi, what a good name! Your father must be a scholar too." The old man was excited when he said poetry.
Liu Yiyi heard this poem, and immediately buried his head in his knees and sobbed quietly.
"Yiyi, what's wrong with you?" Lu Yu asked when Liu Yiyi was crying.
Liu Yiyi lifted his head, wiped the tears from his face with the placket, and said with a wry smile: "Let the two benefactors laughed. I just thought of my father. He often hugged me and said to me during his lifetime. Poem."
"You..." The old man stopped talking.
"My parents passed away due to a serious illness when I was eight years old." Liu Yiyi said with tears.
"What a hard-frustrated child, how did you spend these years?" The old man asked with a sigh.
Liu Yiyi stroked the fine hair on his forehead, smiled, and said: "Benevolence, I am not suffering at all. The people in the village treat me very well. I grew up eating rice from hundreds of families in the village. "
"Girl, don't yell graciously anymore, I'm a stranger. You can call me grandfather like Yuer." The old man looked at Liu Yiyi lovingly. Then he asked: "By the way, how old are you, girl?"
"I will be eleven years old after the new year." Liu Yiyi counted with his fingers.
"That Yu'er is one year older than you." The old man turned his head and said to Lu Yu, "You can take good care of your sister in the future."
Lu Yu looked at Liu Yiyi who was lying on the bed, and nodded heavily. Lu Yu has no brothers or sisters. When he was a child, he always envied other small partners such as brothers and sisters. Now that there is a younger sister, I suddenly feel a little strange in my heart.
"Okay! Today is really a good day. I, Liu Yiyi, not only has a grandfather, but also an older brother." Liu Yiyi happily danced on the bed, accidentally affecting the wound, and she grinned again in pain. I was about to cry. Looking at Liu Yiyi's crying and laughing expression, both grandparents and grandchildren were dumbfounded.
The old man seems to have remembered another thing, hesitatingly asked: "Girl, grandfather asks you a question, if you don't want to say it, you don't need to say it."
"Grandfather can ask whatever he wants."
"Uh...what happened to you later. How could..." the old man asked vaguely.
Liu Yiyi heard this, the look in his eyes dimmed suddenly, and his two small hands kept squeezing the corners of his clothes. Then he took a deep breath and said, "This year, our village has been plagued by insects and the food is gone. People in the village can't live anymore. Those who have relatives defect to their relatives, and those who don't have relatives can only escape from the famine~IndoMTL.com~ I followed my aunt next door to escape from the famine. Later...Later, my aunt starved to death."
Liu Yiyi said that this was already full of tears, and continued: "A few days before the accident, there was an uncle in the village who got back a bag of grain from nowhere. Then, everyone robbed the grain like crazy. Many people are all there. I'm dead, I'm so scared, I keep crying..."
Liu Yiyi said this, already crying. The old man hurried to the bed, put Liu Yiyi in his arms, patted Liu Yiyi's back gently, and said gently: "Girl is good, girl doesn't cry. From now on, you will be with grandfather, no one will be bullying. You."
Lu Yu heard the truth of what Liu Yiyi had said. Suddenly he felt a little hairy in his heart. He had guessed many reasons before, such as robbery by bandits, and various assumptions such as the official killing of good works. But in the end, I didn't expect that the truth of the matter was the tragedy of some kind and honest villagers because of a bag of grain. This made him understand the cruelty of reality at a young age, and only by becoming a strong can he survive.
For the next two days after , because Liu Yiyi could not move, Lu Yu came to chat with Liu Yiyi every day and tell stories. Lu Yu never forgets after reading, so there are too many stories in his mind, but he can hardly tell them all. And Liu Yiyi also kept asking Lu Yu to tell stories. Lu Yu simply moved to Liu Yiyi's room to tell stories and chat with him. Liu Yiyi often told him some interesting things in the village. The two get along more closely than their brothers and sisters.
Until the early morning of the seventh day, the doctor checked Liu Yiyi's condition again and said that there was nothing serious about it. My grandfather left the town with three people. Grandfather said, now we must keep on driving without stopping, otherwise we won't be able to reach Qixia Mountain before August 15.
