Liu Zhimo hugged his brother and sister, his eyes turning red, he choked with emotions and said, "It"s okay, brother is here!" His heart ached for his brother and sister, and he felt proud of them for being able to do this on their own at such a young age.Liu Zhiyan cried for a moment before stopping. Liu Zhimo took Liu Zhirou from his embrace, rubbed his head and comforted him.
"Big brother, where"s Xiao Lingjie?" Liu Zhiyan looked up at Liu Zhimo, his face revealing a worried expression.
"Xiao Lingjie, wait for us at the cave for her. Once we find the river, we can go back and reunite with her." When she thought of the lost stream, Liu Zhimo"s voice lowered. When the great river saw that the little stream was no more, he didn"t know how sad he should feel.
Hearing that, Liu Zhiyan heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that Xiao Lingjie was fine.
"Little Yan, Sister Brook was … "He was bitten to death by a wolf." At this time, Li Qingfeng, who had been silent the entire time, spoke to Liu Zhiyan, "Sister Xi Lin ran to lure the wolves away to save us. We must treat the river well in the future.
Hearing this, Liu Zhiyan turned his head to look at the old man who was standing behind him. He slowly walked forward, called out grandfather, then shifted his gaze towards the small stream in his embrace with his eyes closed.
He stretched out his hand to grasp the cold little hand of the brook and solemnly said, "Big Sister Brook, don"t worry. We will definitely treat the river well." Big Sister Brook was their savior. If she hadn"t lured the wolf away, they might have been killed by the wolf as well. They would forever remember this favor.
Liu Zhimo patted Liu Zhiyan"s head and said: "Let"s go and find the river first. If there"s anything you want to say, we can talk about it after we return to the cave." This was a place deep in the mountains where wild beasts roamed about. It was not safe to stay here.
Liu Zhiyan wiped her tears, and acknowledged it.
Liu Zhimo turned his head to look at Eleventh, and asked him to continue leading the way to look for the Great River.
After nodding his head at eleven, he started walking towards the south.
After walking for nearly two hours, they met a big river that was hiding beside a big boulder. When they saw him, Liu Zhiyan and Li Qingfeng ran over and hugged him tightly.
Big River was also very excited when he saw them. He kept saying, "It"s good that you"re fine, it"s good that you"re fine."
When he ran away for a distance, he regretted it. He should have followed Li Qingfeng.
Xiao Lingjie was so good to him and her sister, he couldn"t possibly let something happen to Xiao Feng and Ning Ning. However, at that time, her mind was completely blank, she only wanted to run away.
He wanted to go back and find them, but he didn"t know which way they had run. He had no choice but to brace himself and continue forward.
He only stopped when he heard Zhi Moge"s voice, hiding beside a large rock while waiting for them to come looking for him.
"Big River, I have bad news. You have to be mentally prepared." Li Qingfeng slightly loosened his grip on the large river, and looked towards the large river as he opened his mouth.
Big River looked at Li Qingfeng, then looked at Liu Zhiyan. The sorrowful expression on their face made his heart skip a beat. He tightly pinched the corners of his eyes, and nervously asked, "What is the bad news?"
Once he finished, the old man walked over slowly with the stream in his arms. Li Qingfeng turned to the side to let Liu Zhiyan see what was happening.
"Big river, grandpa let you down. Little brook was bitten to death by a wolf to save me." The old man"s expression was both sad and guilty. No matter how skilled his medical skills were, it was impossible for him to revive this little girl.
He felt really uncomfortable in his heart.
Hearing this, the river was stunned. His eyes stared at the stream in the old man"s embrace, motionless, as if frozen.
Li Qingfeng worriedly pushed him and called his name.
Only then did he move. He walked forward with a trembling body and used his sleeve to wipe away the dried blood on the stream. "Elder sister, you love to be clean so much. Why are you making your face look so dirty now?" He wiped his face over and over again. "It"s fine. I just need to wipe your face clean for you."
His expression made the old man and the others very worried. They would rather have him cry than look like this.
The old man"s eyes were red as he said in a choked voice, "Big River, just cry out if your heart is in pain!" He was really afraid that the child would grow sick from holding back his anger, "It was grandfather who let you down and didn"t protect the stream well."
He was an old man, and he still had to rely on a little girl to save him. He had truly let them down!
Da He shook his head and smiled at the old man, "Grandfather, I don"t want to cry. Why should I cry? My sister is just tired and has just fallen asleep. When she has slept enough, she will wake up. "
He didn"t cry. His sister had said that he was a man and couldn"t cry as he liked.
"Big river..."
Before the old man could finish his words, Big River reached out to hug the stream, "Grandfather, carry Big Sister for me! I can hold her now. " He was taller than his sister and stronger than she was. He could hold her.
The old man opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but Liu Zhimo tugged at his sleeve, telling him to give the stream to the river.
He nodded helplessly and made the river bend down. He then placed the stream on his back and let him carry it back.
Hearing this, Big River bent down without a second word. When the old man placed the stream on his back, he smiled and said, "Big Sister, we"re going home." Saying that, he began to walk forward.
Liu Zhimo and the rest quickly followed, and walked for four hours before returning to the cave.
The moment Li Qingling saw them coming back from the cave, she ran towards them. However, when she saw the small stream on the back of the large river, the smile on her face faded, "Great river …" She let out a cry.
It looks like.
Her eyes looked towards Liu Zhimo, who nodded to her.
Her heart sank.
When Big River saw that Li Qingling was safe and sound, his voice cried out in joy, "Xiao Lingjie …" He had forgotten to ask Xiao Feng about his matters, and now that he saw that she was safe, he became relieved, "My sister is so tired that he fell asleep, I"ll carry her on my back and sleep, I"ll accompany you to chat later!"
"Alright …" Li Qingling suppressed the worry in his heart and replied with a smile.
When the big river carried the small stream in, she carried a few children in her arms before softly asking Liu Zhimo what happened?
Liu Zhimo looked at the old man and the old man sighed, then slowly told the whole story to Li Qingling.
Hearing that, Li Qingling closed his slightly sore eyes, and bowed like an old man, "Grandfather, thank you for taking care of them for me." If it wasn"t for the old man at the creek, the other kids would have had to.
Thinking of this, it was as if her heart was tightly gripped by a large hand, causing her to be unable to breathe.
Seeing her like that, Liu Zhimo immediately patted her back to comfort her, "Don"t think random things through, the children are already fine."
"Little girl, this old man doesn"t have the ability. If I had the ability, the stream wouldn"t have disappeared."
In this life, he hated himself for not studying martial arts properly today. If he knew martial arts, then in this situation, he wouldn"t need to rely on the children to protect him.
He … This was truly a wasted life.
"If it wasn"t for you, grandpa, following the stream, the children would have been in trouble." Li Qingling understood this point very well, "You are the children"s saviors."
"Don"t say anymore, this old man is ashamed." He weakly waved his hand and staggered into the cave. Seeing the river sitting in the corner with the stream, he felt even worse.
Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo looked at each other, both of them sighed, then brought their children with them.
As soon as she entered, she saw the river holding the stream and talking to it, and she became even more worried.
She strode over and squatted down in front of the river. "Big river, the stream is gone. You must grieve." She didn"t want to see the river lose its will to live because the stream was gone.
Da He"s words paused, he looked up at Li Qingling and said to her very seriously, "Xiao Lingjie, don"t be so loud, you will disturb big sister"s sleep."
"You …"
She had only said a single word before the old man stopped her, "Let him accompany Brook for a bit more!" He wouldn"t have the chance to accompany her in the future.
Li Qingling sighed, then stood up and left.
However, they did not expect that the situation in the river would last for a day and a night. They wanted to bury the creek, but the river refused to do so.
"The weather is so hot. If it goes on like this, the stream won"t be able to take it." Li Qingling tightly furrowed his brows, "Today, I will have to bury that small stream in the ground." He was worried about Big River"s refusal to accept the reality of the situation, not to mention the fact that the corpse of the stream would stink.
Although Liu Zhimo and the Old Man knew that what Li Qingling said was reasonable, but seeing how Big River was acting, they could not bear to see it happen.
Seeing their expressions, Li Qingling knew that they couldn"t be cruel. She helplessly shook her head and turned to walk over, "Big river, the little stream is gone, you have to accept reality. For her own good, she must be buried in the ground today."
"Xiao Lingjie, what are you talking about? Why can"t I understand you?" Big Sister is just tired, that"s all. If she falls asleep, she will wake up. "
Li Qingling stared fixedly at the river, enduring the pain in his heart, he said word by word, "Creek is already dead, dead, do you understand?" If he wasn"t cruel, he wouldn"t be able to leave this place in this lifetime.
Hearing the word death, Big River became agitated and shouted towards Li Qingling, "Why are you cursing my sister? You"re a bad guy, go away, I don"t want to see you." As he said that, he even reached out his hand to push Li Qingling.
Li Qingling clenched his teeth, lifted up, and slapped him hard, "Your sister sacrificed herself to let you escape, I didn"t want to see you like this, looking like this, do you feel sorry for her? "Huh?"
