Chapter 236 232: Wang Tianren is dead
Even, two decades old apricot trees that they hugged each other collapsed on the ground at this moment, the branches were crushed countless times, and the apricots that had not been confiscated rolled down everywhere.
Perhaps because this side is close to the big pit, the water level drops faster.
There is basically no water in the lane.
Wang Tianxiao carefully walked down the roadway, and saw that the seepage pit had been revealed.
He was watching it, and suddenly his mind became agitated!
Where is Wang Tianren? !
Where did Wang Tianren go?
When I called for people last night, I mainly considered the old, weak, women and disabled at home, and sent them to the station, while the remaining two brothers followed me.
Wang Tianren never thought of it.
The main reason is that he doesn't think about Wang Tianren at all.
When you encounter a big event all of a sudden, you will naturally forget it.
However, he didn't remember it, and others didn't pay attention, so it was a bit exaggerated.
He was already in the same situation as Wang Tianren, and he didn't want to pay attention to him, and he lived in the mountains, so he didn't care much about the people below.
Plus Wang Tianren has become crazy since the last incident, his mind is a little unclear, and he often doesn't know where to go every day, no different from a wandering lunatic.
Slowly, indeed, everyone didn't pay much attention to him.
Last night too.
Wang Tianxiao even sent Hongwei to the station, but he never thought about Wang Tianren at all.
He thought of this, and shouted upwards: "Tianyi, Tianxin, did you see your third brother yesterday?"
Wang Tianyi and Wang Tianxin were stunned at the same time.
The faces of the two of them changed immediately.
coincidentally.
They knew the subtext behind Wang Tianxiao's question.
Suddenly panicked.
quickly followed Wang Tianxiao and ran down.
"The third brother didn't seem to come back last night?"
"Well, we didn't see anyone when we came up."
"I don't know if it's in the room, and no one went in to check."
"yes."
After Wang Tianren changed his appearance, he made his cave dwelling like a pig's nest, it stinks, and everyone doesn't go to see it when they have nothing to do.
So the specific situation is not very clear.
Wang Tianxiao frowned and didn't say anything more.
He brought his two younger brothers directly to Wang Tianren's room.
As soon as the door was opened, Wang Tianren was seen shrinking behind the door, and fell into the water the moment the door opened.
"Third brother!"
"Third brother!"
Wang Tianxiao just took a look, his head buzzing.
The two younger brothers beside him immediately rushed forward.
Wang Tianren's body is stiff.
I don't know how long I have been waiting behind this door.
So much so that at the moment of falling down, the body was still curled up tightly.
Wang Tianxin cried immediately.
Wang Tianyi was also squatting beside the third brother, his body trembling slightly.
Supporting Wang Tianren's body in a daze.
Wang Tianxiao stared at the three younger brothers on the ground in a daze, and his figure also swayed. He tried his best to hold on to the door frame so as not to fall to the ground.
At this moment, his eyes suddenly turned red.
It seems that the eyes are bloodshot.
Then I don’t know anything.
After an unknown period of time, he regained consciousness under the call of his two younger brothers.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Wang Tianren's pale corpse again.
When he died, he must have been in great pain. His expression was very grim. His hands might have been desperately trying to open the door. His nails were overturned and his fingers were all worn out.
Wang Tianxiao felt a little suffocated.
The shouts of the two younger brothers seemed to be thousands of miles away, and he seemed to be placed in a transparent glass box.
Can see outside and hear, but far away.
After a long time, he suddenly turned up from the ground, turned around and left the room, and ran along the alleyway to the ground in one breath, leaning over and panting heavily.
This person, did he die like this?
Is this the result I have always hoped for?
He really hoped that Wang Tianren would have a good death, right, it should be.
But.
Why is it sad to see him in such a miserable state.
Sad and don’t know what to say, what to express, what to think, what to do?
He just wanted to gasp for breath.
Otherwise, he will suffocate to death.
Wang Tianyi and Wang Tianxin came up with Wang Tianren's body.
Just put it on the removed door panel.
The two were silent, looking at the brother's body, like two stone sculptures.
got windy.
The cold wind blew the wet clothes of the three of them, and they all felt very cold, and they all shivered twice.
It was this chill that made Wang Tianxiao slowly regain his sanity.
He turned around with great effort, looked at Wang Tianren again, and finally sighed: "Tianyi, take out a bed sheet from the suitcase, and cover your third brother."
"Well, second brother."
With the help of Wang Tianxin, Wang Tianyi started looking for things.
Wang Tianxiao watched them silently, without moving for a long time.
Although the gears of time are still turning, they have already embarked on other tracks.
Wang Tianren, who could have lived more than ten years, died in fear on this stormy night.
When he was alive, he was useless and selfish, always thinking of taking more advantage from others, wanting to take everything from others as his own.
But he didn't expect that when he died, all he needed was a small place.
He curled up into a ball.
Even if you lie down, you can only put it down with a door panel.
He took nothing.
Nobody knew he was dead, and there was no one around him when he died.
He had a wife, but she left him.
He originally had a child, but was abandoned by himself.
He originally had brothers, but tried his best to split the brotherhood.
He originally had a mother...
In short, when he was alive, he wanted a lot, but lost even more.
so that when he died, he had nothing.
.
At noon, the sky finally cleared up.
By two o'clock in the afternoon, the red sun came out and hung in the sky.
Most of the water on the road has infiltrated into the soil, leaving only a small puddle in the potholes, which shone with tiny shadows under the sunlight.
All the ditches on both sides of the road are also full of water, and the whole field seems to be divided into many small paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River.
It's getting hot again.
Soon, a thin mist began to fill the air, and when I accidentally looked into the distance, I could still see sporadic mirages.
It is bright.
But people who have just experienced disasters have not recovered.
And many people will never see a sunny day.
After a morning's statistics, the statistics of all the disaster victims are basically clear. Excluding the dozen people who were sent to the hospital, eleven people have been confirmed dead.
Wang Tianren is included in it.
This number undoubtedly completely crushed everyone's psychological defenses.
People would never think that people who were fine yesterday will be separated forever overnight.
Women can be heard crying hysterically everywhere.
Daughters are very useful at this time. They can be upright and open their mouths to cry bitterly, expressing their sadness and sorrow for the death of their family members.
Men can't.
Whether it is parents, brothers, or wives and children.
The men could only stand silently beside their dead bodies, neither wanting to say a word nor being able to speak out.
Perhaps, they seem to be able to persist on the surface, but their hearts are already riddled with holes, and they may fall down at any time.
Even if the water recedes, many people's pit yards are no longer convenient to enter.
Even if they can withstand the discomfort of a family member who just passed away, many cave dwellings are beginning to be in a dangerous state because of the soaked ground kang courtyard.
May collapse at any time.
It's too dangerous to live in.
Under the command of the team leader Wang Dabao, the homeless people either temporarily lived in their brother's house, or temporarily built a plastic shed above the pit yard, and temporarily put their bodies inside.
As for eating, at this time, it is basically settled in the neighborhood.
No matter how everyone is on weekdays, whether the relationship is close or not, they have become much more tolerant of each other at this moment.
Meals, hot water, and various tools must not be stingy.
Help out if you can.
Wang Tianxiao was even faster.
He contacted Liu Mang directly, and started building a temporary residence on the alfalfa field above the pit yard.
Because the materials are all freshly obtained from prefabrication factories and brick and tile factories, and there are many people working, it is visible to the naked eye that a series of walls have begun to lay the foundation.
Before the house was built, Wang Tianxiao first contacted and set up a tent.
It's like a tent for eating.
Temporarily put Wang Tianren's body inside, and temporarily set up a mourning hall.
Determining the life of the coffin, I found that the coffin shop in the town was overcrowded all of a sudden. Even if I didn't sleep or rest, I had to queue for half a month to get the coffin.
Wang Tianxiao entrusted Zhang Wenyuan to get it directly from other places.
The shipping fee is a bit more.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
People die and evil disappears.
In the morning, he stood silently beside Wang Tianren's body for a long time.
Recalling when they were very young, in fact, the two of them still have some good memories.
Then use those only memories to give their twisted brotherhood a final end.
After Wang Tianxiao was buried in the coffin, the relationship would be over.
He will help bring up Hongwei, or see if his elder brother wants to adopt him. Anyway, he is his nephew, so he must give him a good future no matter what.
News, haven't told mother yet.
He still doesn't know how to tell his mother.
Although this child is incompetent, has no sense of responsibility, and even does things that both people and gods hate.
But in the eyes of mothers, they are all children.
Suddenly gone, a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, Wang Tianxiao can feel the heartache.
In the previous life, his son had a safety accident at work and lay in the ICU for three days. When Wang Tianxiao was guarding outside the hospital, he felt that the sky was about to collapse.
With no one to support her, she couldn't even stand upright.
The problems faced by his mother now are basically the same as those he encountered before.
His defense was clear that time, and the child recovered at last.
But this time, it was a real separation between heaven and man.
He is tired.
Squatting on the stone roller with his head bowed and looking into the distance for a long time, he still didn't want to speak.
Footsteps came from beside him.
Wang Tianyi came to the side, "Second brother, about the funeral of third brother..."
"You take care of it."
Wang Tianxiao responded weakly, and added: "Don't worry about the money, I will give it to you later."
"good."
Wang Tianyi nodded, waited and said: "Mother..."
Wang Tianxiao glanced at him, thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Mother, let me talk, you first take Tianxin, and contact all kinds of things such as paper goods, drummers, etc., hurry up, the one who was injured recently There are so many people, it is estimated that it will be difficult to invite."
"OK."
"My relatives, it's time to notify."
"OK."
"...What else, you think about it first, just come to me if you have any difficulties."
Wang Tianyi nodded.
He knew that his second elder brother Wang Tianxiao could do all this, which was actually considered as the utmost benevolence and righteousness.
At first, he was worried that the second brother would not pay attention to the third brother's affairs.
After all, the relationship between the second brother and the third brother was already bad to the limit, and because the third brother abandoned the child recently, the degree of disgust of the second brother has increased again.
Because the second brother is the kind of person who values his family very much.
well.
Things have developed to this point, and many things are really hard to say.
Wang Tianxiao looked up at the sky.
The sun has already passed through the mid-heaven, which is the hottest time of the day.
Rubbing his eyes, he jumped off the stone roller.
"I'll go to the city first."
Wang Tianyi instantly understood what he meant and nodded.
.
Wang Tianzhong walked into the office, hung his hat on the hanger, and asked with a smile, "Tianxiao, are you here to see me today, or are you passing by?"
Wang Tianxiao stood at the window, looking out through the glass.
Hearing what the eldest brother said, he slowly turned his face and said softly, "Brother, the third child is gone."
"Ha, why is the third child gone?"
Wang Tianzhong unbuttoned his collar and sat on the sofa. He didn't hear what Wang Tianxiao was saying clearly.
"Last night, the flood at home was much bigger than that in the city. Many people in the pit yard were injured, including... including the third child."
Wang Tianzhong was going to get the teacup on the coffee table, but when he heard this, he was stunned.
"You said... gone?"
Wang Tianxiao nodded.
"The third child is dead."
Wang Tianzhong looked at his younger brother in shock, his eyes wide open, as if he had been frozen, he just raised his hand in a daze.
"Brother, don't..."
Wang Tianxiao just wanted to comfort Wang Tianzhong not to be too sad, his heart is not good, when he saw Wang Tianzhong directly clutching his chest and collapsed on the sofa.
"Brother..."
Wang Tianxiao hurried over, helped Wang Tianzhong sit up, and helped him caress his chest.
Wang Tianzhong panted heavily, and it took him a long time to recover slowly.
He looked at Wang Tianxiao in a daze: "What's the matter, why did people disappear?"
Wang Tianxiao had no choice but to repeat what happened last night.
"Why are you so careless, why don't you know how to look more, he is out of his mind now, you... oh."
Wang Tianxiao didn't speak.
Brother's complaint is just a subconscious reaction.
In fact, he also knew in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with him. What he could do, he had already done very well.
Wang Tianren's death, his heart is still empty, but that's because after all, brothers are brothers, and sometimes that kind of blood relationship just doesn't make sense.
Perhaps if both of them can live to old age, he will hate Wang Tianren all his life.
But seeing him die young at such a young age, it is still difficult to completely let go of him and treat him as an ordinary enemy.
Wang Tianzhong slowly calmed down.
"Does mother know?
"I don't know yet, I want to tell you first, and see if you tell your mother or I will tell you."
Wang Tianzhong sighed: "Everyone says it's the same, people are gone, these are not important anymore. When Dad passed away, I promised the old man to take good care of the brothers, but after all, I didn't do well."
Wang Tianxiao was silent.
He hoped that what Wang Tianzhong said was the truth.
Frankly speaking, he felt that Wang Tianzhong did not fulfill his responsibility as a big brother.
In this kind of big family, when the father dies early, the elder brother basically has to bear part of the father's responsibilities, not only to let the brothers grow up, but also to be responsible for educating their moral character, mediating disputes and conflicts between brothers, etc. wait.
But the elder brother obviously didn't do it well.
If Wang Tianxiao hadn't been reborn, he would have been let down for the rest of his life.
The family is flying around, all kinds of conspiracies, he doesn't believe that his eldest brother has no feeling at all.
More often, it’s just getting by.
As long as there is no bigger incident and it can be maintained on the surface, then he will turn a deaf ear and watch from the sidelines.
As a result, people like Wang Tianren who like to make troubles...
Well Well.
Wang Tianxiao didn't want to think about the bad things about Wang Tianren.
When a person dies, let everything be over.
"The house was also flooded, and there is no place to live when I go back temporarily. Brother, when you come home, mother and the children will be placed with me for the time being. After the matter is over, let's see how the family arranges it."
"I... I'll see if I can ask for leave tomorrow. Things are not very good recently. I have been very busy and haven't rested for a long time."
Wang Tianxiao nodded and said, "Then you can see."
He was not in the mood to continue persuading Wang Tianzhong to go home early.
Anyway, that's the case.
What you should do yourself, just do it yourself.
Others, how much to do, they decide for themselves.
tired.
.
Wang Tianxiao returned to the station and did not go to his mother immediately.
He quietly returned to his room, looking at his wife knitting sweaters on the kang, he couldn't help feeling sad.
Seeing that his expression was not normal, his wife put down the sweater and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? It rained heavily last night. It was still raining heavily in the mountains. You can hear the sound of rain and the flow of torrents in the room." roar."
"It's raining heavily below."
"Ah, it's okay, many people in the village live in pit yards, if the water goes down...why do you look so bad?"
Li Yali was sure that something was wrong with her husband.
"The third... is dead."
"ah!"
Li Yali was dumbfounded on the kang.
She finally understood why her husband was so depressed.
But for a while, she suddenly didn't know what to say to her husband?
Comfort him, it seems that he should not.
After all, the relationship between the husband and the third child is in dire straits.
But she knows her husband very well.
He is not the kind of person who can really hurt others heartlessly.
Even if it is the third child, the husband will stay away from them at most, and will not take the initiative to hurt him.
If there is a problem with the child of the third family, why is the husband still so worried, more anxious than anyone else.
After all, he is a kind, good man.
He was angry, but he tried his best to take care of his relatives.
When he was alive, he must have hated thinking of the third child, but now that he died suddenly, he must also feel uncomfortable.
Li Yali thought a lot for a while, but there was no one to comfort Wang Tianxiao, so she could only slowly move her buttocks to the top of the kang, and gently held her husband's face in both hands.
"You did your best."
Wang Tianxiao looked at his wife's gentle eyes, and said softly: "I should have hated him very much, but you know, when I opened the door and saw that he had shrunk into a ball and his body was already cold, I was still very sad."
"I understand that you have such a personality. Even if he treats you badly, you still think that you are a blood brother after all. This is not your fault, so don't be too sad."
"I know, I just feel a little lost in my heart. It seems that something is gone, a little empty."
"Alas, there is life and death."
Wang Tianxiao gradually felt better under the encouraging eyes of his wife.
He rubbed the center of his brows, and said softly: "I asked the fourth child to prepare for the funeral, entrust the child to Brother Wenhua and the others today, and let's go down the mountain to help tomorrow.
In this life, the third child and I have not been good brothers, and now there is a distance between man and nature, so this brother, I will give him a ride. I hope he can be a good person in his next life and don't make the same mistakes again. "
"Well, it should be," Li Yali nodded, agreeing to her husband's arrangement, then said again: "Now that he's gone, I don't know where the flowers are, and even her father didn't see her for the last time."
"I don't know, and I don't know where that child was taken by the hanged ghost. That child Hua'er is also a good child, but she didn't meet good parents. She was still studying, but now she's broken." .”
"Yes. By the way, did you tell the eldest brother about the third child?"
"Brother has already said it, and sister and brother-in-law also called and told them to tell Xiaolan by the way. It's just that Tiancheng can't be contacted, and there is no phone number. It must be too late to write a letter."
"It's indeed a matter. But it's okay, Tiancheng will let him do it well, and let's talk about it when he comes back. After all, he died in an accident, so that he won't know how sad he is."
"Well, me too."
Wang Tianxiao lay on his back on the kang, resting his head on his hands, staring at the beams on the roof in a daze.
"How can I tell my mother?"
"Yes, my mother has been in poor health recently. If I know this, I don't know if I can hold it."
"yes."
Li Yali also sighed, with a sad face.
"However, I still have to talk about it. After all, people can't delay it. I have to say it sooner or later. I can't let her see her son for the last time, right?"
"Well. I'll go to sleep first. I didn't sleep last night. You know, Cao Daneng was also drowned."
"..."
Li Yali was surprised again.
"A total of eleven people disappeared from the village."
Wang Tianxiao said, and closed his eyes.
He was tired all night, and he ran around the city again during the day, and now he is a little bit overwhelmed.
As soon as I close my eyes, I fall asleep.
Li Yali wanted to go down and take off her husband's shoes so that he could have a good rest, but she was afraid of waking him up.
Finally, he lightly pulled a thin blanket over him.
Wang Tianxiao felt his wife's warmth, turned around gently, hugged his waist, and buried his head in his wife's arms.
Stick tightly.
Li Yali hugged her husband's shoulder distressedly.
I feel sorry for this sensual and sensitive man.
.
During the afternoon meal, Zhang Yufeng was actually very happy.
She is surrounded by several grandchildren.
Wang Fang, Wang Hongwei, Wang Tian, Wang Peng, and their youngest daughter Wang Xiaozhu.
She prefers these little grandchildren to the children.
In front of them, his temper became much better, and he no longer had so many troubles.
Wang Tianxiao and Li Yali felt sad secretly when they saw her happy appearance.
I really don't know how she will suffer when she hears the news.
