Great Thousand Robbers

The glaciers have just melted, the spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and the sun is shining to the extreme, making the green grass greener and the clear water clearer.

Three months of winter is finally over!The chill of early spring is gone, and the world has finally warmed up again.

Countless plants are growing wildly, bathed in sunshine, it's time for the little girl to go out.

This is the height of spring, the herbs in the mountains have survived the whole winter, and the spring is out, ready to be picked.

Caroline rushed out of the small courtyard with a pannier on her back, and ran forward in a small step, but unfortunately, the skirt was too long, so she had to lift it up with her hands.Damn, why do you have to wear a skirt!

She couldn't help turning her head back, and said softly, "Mother, can I not wear a skirt!"

A middle-aged woman in an apron came out, shook her head and sighed: "Dear Caroline, you are almost 16 years old. Even if you are from a poor family, you should be a lady. In fact, Mom doesn't want you to Up the mountain, you can marry a good man."

Hearing the word married, Caroline quickly shook her head, turned around and ran away like a little rabbit.

The middle-aged woman looked at her and shook her head, and couldn't help saying: "Stinky girl, you are too willful."

"Anna! Help me! It's about to give birth, the lamb is about to give birth!"

A rough voice came from the backyard, and the middle-aged woman hurried over.

Caroline ran for several miles at a stretch before stopping, panting slightly, and couldn't help but look behind, only when she was sure her mother wasn't chasing her was she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I escaped another catastrophe. Really, why do people marry when they reach their age!

Caroline sighed softly, and looked at the low hill ahead with melancholy. The lush green grass had blocked the road, butterflies were flying, and even bees were circling.

"Wow! The flowers are blooming!"

Caroline stared wide-eyed, and trotted over immediately, chasing the butterflies and bees, looking at the mountains full of flowers, all the worries and troubles were completely forgotten.

A child's personality is so simple. Although Caroline is no longer young, she still maintains this simplicity.

As the sun shone, her smile became even sweeter. Her youthful face and elf-like facial features seemed to come out of a painting.And her golden hair fluttered, making her look like a mythical figure.

"Hey, Caroline! You're playing again!"

"See how Aunt Anna handles you."

"Don't talk nonsense! Aunt Anna is very good-natured, but Uncle Sam is not so easy-going!"

Voices came one by one, and seven or eight men and women came here with their backs on their backs, all young girls and boys.

Caroline frowned slightly, curled her lips and said, "I'm not out to play! I'm going to gather medicine."

Speaking of this, she stared, and couldn't help saying: "Why are you all carrying baskets? It can't be..."

A chubby little girl with freckles said with a smile: "Yes, we all saw you coming out with a pannier on your back! So we all followed. Everyone knows that little sister Caroline has a good nose and can find everything. !"

Caroline didn't care about it, she just squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "From now on, you'll have to help my house frequently!"

As she spoke, she turned around and walked forward. The countless butterflies and bees seemed to be unafraid of her, constantly circling and flying around her.

She is used to it.

And, our Caroline thinks, that's a good thing.

This mountain endowed the small village with all the wealth, the grass for herding sheep, the flowers for making wine, the medicine for curing diseases, and the game for eating.

There are no large monsters here, only some small rabbits and squirrels, they grow up in this forest, and this is their home.

Caroline quickly returned her friends with full loads, but her own basket was empty!

ah!Patronizing to let them pick it, I forgot myself!

She was a little annoyed, but couldn't help laughing. In her opinion, helping others is also a kind of happiness.

"what!"

An exclamation sounded suddenly, and the chubby girl with freckles ran over quickly, her face pale with fright.

"What's the matter? What's the matter? Have you encountered a snake again?"

Caroline couldn't help asking.

"No, no."

The little chubby girl gasped and stammered, "Ah! Merciful God, there is a dead person here!"

"dead?"

Everyone's eyes widened, they took a few steps back quickly, looked at each other, swallowed their saliva, and no one dared to look up.

Caroline took a deep breath, put the pannier on the ground, and walked forward step by step.

"Caroline... don't go, it's dead."

There was also fear in Caroline's eyes, but more courage. She shook her head, stepped forward step by step, and finally saw the whole body of the corpse.

Her face suddenly turned pale. This person was terrifying. The skin all over his body was cracked, exposing the dry flesh and blood inside. His hair was messy and covered with blood. His right hand and left leg were broken, and his stump was gone. where.

Caroline panted slightly, and mustered up the courage to look at his face. His face was quite normal, except that it was covered with blood, but it was well-defined, with clear facial features, and looked good.

He held the knife in his hand and held it tightly.

Who is this?Why are you here?Was he hunted down?

Caroline had a lot of extra questions in her head, but she was not afraid anymore.

She turned her head and said, "Come and see! He is an Oriental!"

As soon as these words came out, several young people also hesitantly approached step by step. Seeing the appearance of the corpse, they couldn't help screaming in shock.

A slightly older child hurriedly said: "Caroline, let's go! He looks so scary, maybe we should talk to the elders about it."

But Caroline frowned slightly, and suddenly said, "Has anyone brought water?"

"Huh? Caroline, are you thirsty? Drink mine!"

A big boy blushed and brought over the water bottle he had drunk, and the other boys hurriedly handed out their own water bottles.

The chubby girl pouted, and couldn't help snorting, Caroline was so popular, she couldn't help being jealous.

But there is no way, Caroline is too good-looking, and she has such a good personality, so of course she is likable.

Caroline blushed and took a glass of water, opened the bottle cap, and slowly poured it on the face of the corpse.

Everyone was startled and couldn't help but quickly backed away.

"Caroline, do you give water to the dead?"

"God bless, let's not mess with him, shall we? I think he's terrible."

Caroline heard it, but shook her head, took out a white handkerchief from her bosom, and wiped off all the blood on the corpse's face with clean water.

The handkerchief was dirty, and Caroline frowned and threw it into the basket. Looking at the corpse, her eyes widened.

"Wow! So unique! The Orientals are indeed different from us."

After saying this, the curiosity of a group of children immediately surpassed their fear, and they hurriedly leaned over with their heads up.

I saw that this person's skin was fair, but it was already full of wrinkles, and his long hair was as pale as snow, but he could still be seen as a young man.

Just because his outline is still there, not as vicissitudes as the old man.

Caroline said blankly: "Why is he old? Judging by his age, he looks like an older brother."

The little chubby girl frowned and said: "How can there be such an old brother, Caroline, let's tell the elders about this! Or the pastor of the church will do."

A boy said: "We have grown up, we don't need to tell them, let's bury him!"

A group of people immediately echoed, shouting that they have grown up.

Caroline stared at the corpse, and suddenly she squatted down, and pushed the eyelids of the corpse away with fingers as tender as green onions, and immediately backed away in fright.

She saw the light in the corpse's eyes!It is purple blue, like a deep universe.

Only then did the friends beside her react, and the chubby girl couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, Caroline?"

Caroline looked at several boyfriends and said softly, "Which one of you is willing to help me?"

"I will, I will!"

"Me too!"

Caroline said: "Let's go together! Help me lift him down."

Several people suddenly felt their legs go limp, and their foreheads were already covered with sweat.

One of them laughed dryly: "Don't be joking, Caroline, the corpses are rotten like this, how dare we move them!"

"Caroline, you don't want to move this corpse home, do you? This can't be sold for money."

Caroline took a deep breath and said, "He doesn't seem to be dead."

Saying this sentence made everyone roll their eyes.

Caroline said: "He really didn't die... You see, his skin and flesh are split, but he didn't rot or stink."

"Could it be that...the corpse has changed?"

After the little chubby girl said these words, several people looked at each other, and they couldn't help but slowly backed away, and then left in a hurry.

Caroline pouted, snorted unhappily, and mustered up the courage to squat down slowly, pushing the corpse's eyelids away.

A purple-blue light flashed, and his eyes were as deep as the universe.

She held her breath, opened and then opened the other eye, and sure enough, it was also purple-blue, like two unfathomable holes of light, the white of the eyeball could not be seen at all.

Letting go, Caroline murmured: "I don't know why, I always feel that you are not dead..."

She thought for a long time before suddenly saying: "I want to save you, save a life, after all, it's right, I think my parents won't object! Hee hee!"

As if she had convinced herself, she threw the basket aside, grabbed the waist of the corpse, and lifted it up with all her might, her little face flushed red, but after all, she didn't have enough strength.

"You are so heavy!"

She couldn't help pouting, exhaled heavily, and tried again. A breeze blew by, and she finally picked up the corpse and carried it on her back.

The weight bent her slender waist, and the blood stained her long skirt. She didn't mind, just gritted her teeth, and walked down the hillside step by step.

The breeze was blowing, the grass was green and the sun was shining brightly, and her mood suddenly improved.

To her, saving lives is really something to be happy about.

She likes all life, she loves nature and is kind to nature.

I feel better, and for some reason, the corpse on my back is not heavy, and I can walk a lot easier.

No, maybe he shouldn't be called a corpse, he must still be alive, it's impolite.

What is it called?Caroline thought about it, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help saying happily, "I'll call you Brother Dongfang! After all, you are from the East, and Caroline doesn't have a brother yet!"

Thinking that this person might wake up and call her sister, Caroline was so happy that she ran down the hill quickly.She didn't even know why she was so strong.

But as she approached home, Caroline couldn't help but slow down again. Would her parents really not object to her?Mother won't, but father always has a straight face...

She paced back and forth, afraid to go in, but the cry of the lamb in the backyard had already been heard.

Why!The lamb is born!That father should be in the backyard!

Her eyes lit up, and she quickly ran into the house with her Dongfang brother on her back, and entered her own small room.

Although it is small, although there are not many things, she likes her small room very much, it can give people warmth.

She carefully put this person on her little bed, finally smiled, squinted and said, "Go to sleep! My bed is warm!"

As soon as the words fell, a steady voice came: "Caroline, who is he?"

Caroline's complexion changed, she turned around quickly, and saw her bearded father...

She grabbed her skirt with both hands and said in a low voice, "Father...he was injured, very seriously."

Sam said in a deep voice: "Since he is injured, it must be troublesome. Our family can't afford him, and we can't cure him!"

Caroline whispered: "But...we can't leave him alone, God is merciful, isn't it?"

Uncle Sam's face darkened, he looked at the corpse on the bed, and was about to speak when his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly walked towards the bed.

"Father......"

"do not speak!"

Uncle Sam has already shouted, his eyes fixed on the black dagger in this man's hand, looking at this exquisite arc, shining blood red, he couldn't help panting: "God bless! I have never seen it before. Such a good weapon! It’s probably priceless! Caroline, you are really a blessing to my father!"

Caroline blushed and said softly, "But father, this is his property!"

"But we want to save his life! Without the money for this knife, we can't even live on our own."

Uncle Sam stretched out his hand, but found that he couldn't pull it off. He couldn't help thinking to himself, damn it, why are you holding it so tightly!

He tried his best to break the man's hand, but it was not enough to use all the strength in his body. Finally, he couldn't help being angry, and he clenched his fist and slammed it at the hand.

Then a bloody light suddenly shot out, illuminating the whole room brightly!

The next moment, Uncle Sam saw his blond hair fall.

He swallowed, his legs trembling with fright.

Looking at the exquisite short knife, an unprecedented panic surged in his heart.
