Four gusts of wind
Chapter 10
"Why didn't you catch a rabbit?".
Grandpa watched a few people return to the house with a disgraced face and asked with concern.
"I've been looking around, and there are no rabbits at all." "
Liu Mei was still complaining, and her brother moved his eyes to Dabai, but Dabai didn't follow, so he didn't find it.
Da Bai ignored it, wagged his tail perfunctorily, and never opened his eyes.
"Forget it, don't look for it, watch TV." "
As he spoke, a few people got up and were about to walk to the house above the courtyard, but the grandfather reminded him that there was no signal, and they didn't believe in evil, so they insisted on going up to have a look.
Turn on the TV, as grandpa said, almost every channel is flowery, and only the sound of sizzling comes from inside.
"I hate winter the most, it's always like this." "
Ermao threw the sleigh to the door in annoyance and squatted on the ground to sulk.
He and his brother seemed normal, not unhappy that they couldn't see TV.
"Mao, call me when you have a picture." "
"Hmm. "
Immediately, the elder brother walked out the door, came under the signal board, and used a sleigh to remove the snow that had accumulated on the signal board. As the snow was shaved away, scattered images began to appear on the TV, along with noisy human voices.
When the snow was cleared, my brother put down the sled, grabbed the signal disc with both hands, and slowly moved it from side to side.
Seeing this, the sister and brother cast adoring glances at their brother one after another.
"There's a picture, brother." "
: "Tune in to the animation channel." "
"Hmm. "
He took the remote control to tune to the animation channel, and there were chaotic and conspicuous colors on the TV, and the immature voice was stuck one by one.
The elder brother asked as he moved to the left.
"Is there a picture?".
"Nope. "
The elder brother moved a little more to the right.
"And now?".
"Slowly it became clearer. "
The elder brother then moved to the right.
"Okay?"
"It's still a bit of a flower. "
The
brothers followed this step more than ten times, and with the cooperation of the two, the TV picture finally became clear.
"Alright. "
Hearing the reply, the elder brother rubbed his hand on his clothes, then got up and walked back to the room.
"Brother Jun, are you going to adjust this?"
Liu Mei looked at the cartoons clearly playing on TV, and hurriedly ran to her brother's side to ask.
"Well, last year, our fifth uncle was tuned like this. "
As he spoke, the elder brother opened the door to the other room, then took out a brazier from it and walked out.
"You watch first, I'll go and make a fire." "
After a while, the elder brother took the brazier back to the house, followed by Dabai, who had slept enough, and they sat around the brazier and watched cartoons while talking and laughing.
Time passed quickly.
Liu Mei and her parents stood under the persimmon tree and called them home for dinner, and they reluctantly bowed their heads and walked out of the house.
The brothers watched for a while, and the grandfather also came to the courtyard and called them down to eat.
The elder brother got up and turned off the TV, and the two of them and a dog slowly walked out of the house. As soon as he stepped out of the door, the snow began to fall again, and it was almost knee-high, and he looked up at the falling snow like goose feathers, not knowing how thick it would be.
"It's the first time it's snowing so much, so it must have been a long time, right?"
He reached out and caught a snowflake, and when the two touched, his hand seemed to turn into a yellowed page, on which were written a dense pile of words that he could not read. The snowflakes are like the leaves of the day, lying on the pages of the book, and they have a different flavor.
"Mao, hurry up, otherwise I will be scolded by the fifth uncle again." "
When his brother saw him stop, he turned around and shouted.
He came back to his senses, answered the call, and hurried up.
Da Bai slept full, as if he was full of strength, rushed to the front of the two of them, and rushed to the kitchen at a speed that the two of them couldn't keep up with in their lives.
After eating, the two went back to watch TV, and unsurprisingly, the TV was spent again. This time, no matter how my brother adjusts it, it never comes out of the picture, and in the back, even if the fifth uncle comes out, it's useless.
"I can't watch TV, kid. "
The fifth uncle told them in a tone of schadenfreude that they could not be transferred back, and then walked to the top of the village.
The two of them squatted in front of the door, not what to do.
It's been a long night, and there is no TV to pass the time, so I really don't know how to get through it.
Xiao Ran held a flashlight and shouted his name on it as usual, and he responded a few times weakly. When Xiao Ran walked in front of him, he told Xiao Ran with a depressed face that he couldn't watch TV.
Xiao Ran was not as depressed as the two of them, and after learning that she couldn't watch TV, she thought for a while and said with a smile.
"How about we tell a story? "
Hearing the story, he hurriedly waved his hand.
"Don't tell it, don't tell it, as soon as I tell the story, my brother will be terrifying again." "
"No, it won't. "
The elder brother placed his hand on his shoulder, promising with an unconvincing expression.
"If you don't talk about it, you don't talk about it." "
Seeing him so persistent, Xiao Ran and his brother could only give up.
The three of them gathered around the brazier, their eyes fixed on the flames, and their hands swung around uncomfortably.
"It's boring. "
Xiao Ran, holding her chin with her hands, pouting her mouth, although she was bored, among the three, there was still light in her eyes.
"I can't stand it. "
The elder brother stood up violently, raised his foot and was about to walk out.
"Let's go, go out and play." "
"Where can I go on a snowy day?"
He and Xiao Ran raised their heads at the same time, looking at their brother expectantly.
"It's better to wander around than to stay here and not know what to do." "
Indeed, it's boring anyway, so it's better to go out and hang out.
Thinking about it, the three of them got up and dragged Da Bai to the outside together.
As the night wore on, the snow stopped again, and the moon hung quietly in the sky. The moonlight casts on the snow, and the road is easier to walk than on a summer night.
Three people and one dog, with the dog leading the way, walked along the road, and before they knew it, they came out of the village and came to a clearing above the school.
At this moment, the school is pitch black, and only the snow on the roof and branches can be seen, which has a more terrifying atmosphere than the usual lively scene.
He was most afraid of this kind of scene, like the haunted place in a horror movie, and in order to prevent his brother from leading them down, he proposed to stand on this flat ground and watch the moon. The elder brother didn't think much about it, stopped and squatted up.
Seeing that they didn't go any further, Da Bai wandered around the neighborhood.
At a high level, the wind also becomes stronger and colder.
After squatting for a while, my brother got up and went to the nearby forest to find firewood to burn, so that they could dig up the snow and dig a small fire pit.
He was curious about where his brother got the lighter, and suddenly remembered that the one that Ermao handed to his brother today had not been returned. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the picture of Ermao being scolded by his father.
"With such a big snow, can all that wood still burn?"
Xiao Ran asked suspiciously.
"It's lit." "
He patted his chest and promised Xiao Ran, and then began to shave the snow.
After a short while, the elder brother came out of the woods with a large pile of firewood, threw them on the ground, and then broke some to form a small fire. He lit the lighter several times, but because the wind was too strong, it was blown out as soon as it was lit.
Seeing this, he unzipped his clothes, pulled his clothes with one hand to block the wind, and continued to light the fire with the other, and finally lit the fire after several attempts.
When Da Bai saw the fire that was lit, he also stopped wandering, and slowly came to their side to roast the fire with them.
Xiao Ran gently stroked its head and said like a little brother.
"So you're afraid of the cold, too. "
The moon grew brighter and brighter, and the fire grew louder and bigger.
All three looked up at the moonlight.
The sun has a different flavor in different seasons, but this moon, which seems to be the same in every season, always gives people a bleak feeling, as if there is a person above who is separated from his family and cries alone every night. It was as if that person was the person next to them, they knew him, but they couldn't remember who it was, and they couldn't remember what he looked like.
"It's quite fun to enjoy the moon outside on a snowy night. "
Xiao Ran looked at the moon and smiled faintly, the smile looked happy, but it was the same as the moonlight, giving people a bleak feeling.
"Isn't it interesting? Today is roasting in the wild, and Liu Mei is still complaining while roasting." "
After teasing, the elder brother took out a red plastic bag from his coat pocket, and after spreading it out, he could clearly see by the light of the fire that the plastic bag was wrapped in several neatly cut pieces of bacon.
"Brother, when did you cut it?".
After he finished speaking, Xiao Ran also looked at his brother curiously.
"Just go down and get a flashlight." "
The elder brother answered briefly, then folded off three slender wooden sticks and handed them to him and Xiao Ran, and after the two took it, the elder brother gave them the bacon.
"Don't tell grandpa when you go back." "
He nodded in response, took the bacon, skewered it on a stick, and roasted it over the fire.
As soon as the bacon came into contact with the temperature of the flame, it began to bubble with oil, and the oil dripped along the meat slices on the carbon fire, sizzling loudly.
Da Bai smelled the fragrance, and kept wagging his tail around several people, and his brother pushed it away impatiently, and it leaned on his brother again, and his brother pushed it again, and it leaned again.
"Oops, yes, I know, I brought your portion, and I'll give it to you when it's baked." "
Hearing his brother's words, he sat honestly on the side, stuck out his tongue and waited anxiously, occasionally calling twice to urge his brother in the process of waiting.
When the meat is cooked, I first found a large dead leaf and put it in the snow, and put the big white one on the leaf.
The three of them laughed at it for a while, and after the joke, Xiao Ran gently took a bite of the meat skewer in his hand, and then his face was pale. Seeing this, he also quickly took a small bite, and after chewing a few times, he immediately showed the same expression as Xiao Ran.
"What's wrong?".
The elder brother also took a small bite curiously, and then paused as well, his eyes full of suspicion.
"No, I remember washing it. "
"Have you really washed it?"
He whispered.
"Maybe it's that when you pickle it, you rub it too hard, and the salt tastes too deep." Can't be wasted. "
Xiao Ran said, and took another bite.
Because it was too salty, a small piece of meat, the three of them were stunned by the fire for several minutes before eating.
When they had finished eating, they all put their hands in the snow, picked up a handful of snow and rubbed it constantly, until the oil was wiped off by the snow, and then threw the sticks of meat into the fire. The fire comes into contact with the oil and burns for more health.
The three of them clapped their hands again, then wiped their mouths with their palms, and then picked up the snow again to wipe their hands. Then he looked up and looked at the moon again.
"The moonlight was better that night. "
Xiao Ran's eyes reflected the moonlight, and in the flickering light of the moon, her face seemed to become another night sky, with two moons hanging in the middle of the night sky, and her hair hanging down became a dark cloud around the moon.
"The moon is fine tonight, too. "
The moonlight is beautiful at any time.
Fascinated to watch, it was as if the whole night had become his eyes, or he had slowly risen into the sky and melted into the night.
He and Xiao Ran were intoxicated, but his brother was incompatible with him.
I saw my brother hugging Da Bai, staring at it, pointing to the night sky, and saying to Da Bai.
"Why are you looking at the moon and staring at the fire?"
Da Bai didn't look up, but stared at his brother speechlessly, and then turned his face to look at the other side.
"I don't know how to enjoy. "
The elder brother patted Da Bai's head lightly, and finally let go of his hand, and the two of them looked at the moonlight, but after only looking at it for a moment, they moved their gaze to the other side, in the opposite direction from home.
"It's actually nice to be able to watch the moon with good friends all the time. "
Xiao Ran continued to support her head with both hands, the light in her eyes flowed out little by little, slowly drifting towards the moon in the sky, faintly, the light seemed to have a shape, like a fine cotton silk, meandering up, and like a transparent fish.
He suddenly wanted to grasp the light, and just like that, he flew with it towards the moon, and the ground became farther and farther away, and his body became lighter and lighter, until he flew to the moon, jumping happily.
"Then let's watch it together tomorrow night, and wash the bacon again." "
He chimed in.
"There won't be a moon tomorrow night. "
The elder brother touched the big white.
"You're right. "
After saying that, he rubbed a snowball, got up and threw it vigorously into the distance, until he heard the sound of the snowball hitting the ground, and he was satisfied to squat down again.
"I guess there will be no signal on TV tomorrow night, think about how to pass the time." "
"Then...... Tell a story. "
Xiao Ran narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a smile.
"I really like to hear your stories, and the stories you tell are very interesting. "
He glanced at his brother on the left, Xiao Ran on the right, and finally scratched his head.
"Okay, good, but I'll talk about it tomorrow night, don't tell anyone tonight, and my brother is not allowed to tell horror stories tomorrow night." "
After hearing this, the elder brother patted him on the shoulder with an obscene expression, and promised in his extremely unconvincing tone.
"Okay, don't tell horror stories. "
The word horror was mentioned, and before the story could be told, his attention instantly shifted from the moon to the surroundings. The wind was strong and cold, and the bleak moonlight stood in the woods and fields and roads in the distance, hazy and gloomy. He grew scared in his heart, and he always felt that his eyes would inadvertently catch a glimpse of something unclean.
Thinking of this, his body trembled slightly, and he could only wrap his clothes tightly to give himself some comfort.
As for people, once they are scared, their heads will be cranky. He made up the picture of himself being here alone at night, and gradually, his feet seemed to go limp, and it was difficult to move.
At this moment, he was jealous and longed to teleport to his home, skip the way home, and then lie comfortably on the bed.
He suddenly felt that he was useless, Xiao Ran and a little girl were not afraid of this, he would be afraid of this.
"You can call Ermao and they come over too, there are more people, even if you tell horror stories, you are not so afraid, everyone is here." "
Xiao Ran gently put his hand on his shoulder and said to the two.
Somehow, the hand seemed to have an indescribable magic, and after it was placed on his shoulder, his body suddenly stopped shaking, and he also felt a warm current flow from the palm of the hand, from the shoulder to the whole body.
yes, everyone is not so scared when they are here.
"Okay, you can talk about it, you have to call Ermao and Liu Mei too." "
"It's not impossible, it's interesting to tell stories when there are more people." "
The elder brother put one hand against his chin, pretending to be pensive, and the other hand was still caressing Dabai's head. Da Bai glanced at him, slowly moved away, and then wandered around again.
"This guy, just gave you meat to eat, don't you appreciate it?".
The elder brother scolded it twice, but it ignored it and continued to wander around. Seeing this, he and Xiao Ran laughed to themselves.
The elder brother didn't bother to pay attention to it, and turned his head to face the fire, and the few people continued to chat.
As we laughed, the fire grew smaller, the moonlight darkened, and the snow drifted down again. The elder brother reached out to catch one of the petals, looked at it carefully, and then slowly got up, patted his thigh, looked at the mountain peak in the distance, and said.
"It's not too early, let's go home." "
