Rebirth of the eldest daughter

In fact, this deaf-mute sister has long been hopeless.

The huge water uprooted the mountains and destroyed the dry and decayed trees.

How can a small mortal body resist this?

Even if you are lucky enough to be blocked by some floating object, you can save half your life.

But a person who is deaf and mute cannot even call for help. After so many days, without rescue, how can there be any hope?
Bai Mingwei knew everything in his heart.

The little boy kept pinching the corner of her clothes and holding on tightly.

It's like knowing that there is no hope, but still holding on to the last possibility.

There was no response from Bai Mingwei. He cried and shouted:

"Sister, can you please save her? I called my mother to save her, but she only cried; I asked my grandpa to save her, but grandpa said that my sister can't come back... Big sister is such a kind person, and she is a fairy. You can definitely save my sister, right?"

The boy's cries and tears instantly reminded Bai Mingwei of Chuanyi.

They all share the same pain in accepting the death of a loved one.

But no matter how painful it is, you have to face it head on, right?

The most important lesson in life is how a growing child understands death.

Just like when she was laughed at as a child without a mother, when she cried and asked Brother Qi to get her mother back, Brother Qi seriously told her the meaning of "death".

The old man was afraid that Bai Mingwei would be angry, so he rushed over and hugged the boy's waist: "You disobedient fool, how can you embarrass the general?! Let go! Let go!"

The boy grabbed Bai Mingwei's clothes and held on.

It was obvious that he really didn't want to give up this last glimmer of hope.

When Bai Mingwei saw this, she patted the old man on the shoulder: "Uncle, let me do it."

The old man retreated tremblingly.

Bai Mingwei held the boy's hand and wiped away the tears on his cheek with the other hand.

She slowly told the boy: "Your sister is not dead, she just went to another place, a place where the little bitter root also went, where there is no big water and no hunger."

The boy choked with sobs: "Big sister is lying! Sister must still be in this world!"

Bai Ming slightly softened his voice: "Your sister is in this world, but she is far away from you. She can see you, but you cannot see her. Until one day, you will go there too, and then we can be reunited." ."

"She may be the mountain breeze, vegetation, insects, fish, or even the clouds in the sky. Although she is no longer familiar to you, she will definitely be by your side to accompany you."

"If you miss her, go to the mountains to enjoy the wind and smell the flowers and trees; if one day you see beautiful and lovely insects and fish, or unpredictable clouds, it means your sister is looking at you."

"So you must let her know that you are very good, you will accompany your sad mother, you will take care of your elderly grandfather, and you will work hard to live. Only in this way will your sister be happy, you know?"

The boy couldn't understand these words for a moment.

But he felt that if his sister could become mountain breezes, grass and trees, clouds, and insects and fish, then she would never have to suffer again.

He sobbed and asked, "Then when can I turn into the wind and blow to my sister?"

Bai Ming patted the boy's head slightly: "When you grow up, marry a wife, have children, become a grandfather, Grandpa Zeng... wait until you finish everything you want to do and have no regrets, you can take it with you Happy smile, going to see my sister."

"And the sister in that world, she can hear you, you can tell her that you miss her; she can also speak, and she will definitely tell you that she is very happy to see you working hard to live happily." The boy heard Here, he glanced blankly, and then suddenly ran towards the woman lying beside him.

He excitedly told the woman: "Mother, mother, the fairy eldest sister said that my sister has turned into the wind, clouds, flowers, birds, insects and fish. My sister is beside us! But we can't see her."

"The fairy eldest sister also said that my sister can hear now and can speak. She will no longer be teased or bullied. My sister...she is very good."

After hearing this, the woman was stunned.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and she cried and laughed: "It's your sister. Your sister came to see us."

The boy cheered for joy, stretched out his hand to face the wind, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Sister, sister...sister is here!"

Bai Mingwei felt sad, but his expression was surprisingly calm.

In fact, it can be understood that this grandfather, in the face of the death of three people, sacrificing a disabled and sick child, is it not a way to stop the loss?
It's not necessarily that he felt at ease when he made this decision, and it doesn't necessarily mean that he isn't tortured now.

No matter what, the mother who gave up her child must be the most heartbroken person.

They have no hope, only a lingering life.

If you can't survive this natural disaster, it will be called real hell.

The old man tremblingly apologized to Bai Mingwei: "General, my useless grandson has caused you trouble."

Bai Ming shook his head slightly: "Uncle, you are worrying too much. You have never bothered me."

The old man sighed, his rickety and thin figure looked so sad:

"General, old man, I thank you very much for being here. Except for Prime Minister Bai, no one has ever been willing to listen to our complaints, and there is no place to complain about our sufferings."

"Your time is so precious, but you are willing to listen to a child's appeal. It shows that you really want to save us."

As he spoke, the old man knelt down and said, "General, we all want to live, don't give up on us, okay?"

Bai Mingwei bent down and helped the old man up: "I will do my best, and His Highness the Imperial Envoy Ninth Highness will not give up on us, and you can't give up hope either."

The old man wiped his face with his rough and chapped hands, and then shook his head: "It's too miserable. It's really too miserable this time."

"Even if there was a drought in the past, at least there was still something to harvest, instead of everything being lost like now."

Bai Mingwei's voice was calm: "Uncle, there are breakwaters built in low-lying areas along both sides of the river. Liyang County is not a heavy rain zone, so why are the floods so devastating?"

The old man fell into recollection: "What's the use of the dam with such a huge amount of water? It came in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, all the farmland and the entire village were submerged."

"The first embankment to be built was the Great Roanzi Bend. That bend was too narrow. When the flood came, it couldn't flow along the river, so it broke the embankment."

"The area that was washed away was wider than the river. The water just burst out of the breached embankment, and there was no way to stop it."

"And what the dike protected was a vast expanse of fertile farmland. After the dike broke, it was immediately submerged and turned into a vast expanse of ocean."

Bai Mingwei quickly picked up a stick and started drawing on the ground.

It turned out to be a topographic map of the location described by the old man.

She pointed to the bend: "Uncle, since the place protected by the dike is relatively low, the river should flow to a lower place and cross the flat land. How come it suddenly turns and follows the mountain? Where is the narrow channel flowing?" (End of Chapter)
