He You ran over and pushed the fat child away.
Pick up the little bird from the ground.
Why is it motionless again? It's just like its father and mother.
Has it died again?
The chubby boy stumbled and shouted, "Kill him! Beat him to death! How dare he push your chubby grandpa!"
The children nearby swarmed over and kicked He You repeatedly.
He was knocked to the ground without retaliating; at that moment, he seemed dead, yet also alive.
"Why did you all go to the home of this jinx?" a shrill voice rang out.
Little Fatty's mother came in and grabbed him, saying, "What are you doing here? I'll beat you to death! What if you catch some bad luck?"
She dragged the chubby boy out of He You's yard, cursing and swearing. As she left, she glanced back at He You, saying, "What a jinx! Why don't you just die?"
Then the other children went out as well.
He You felt pain all over his body as he watched the little bird he was tightly protecting slowly lose its body temperature.
It's raining.
The raindrops pounded on him in large drops, but he no longer felt the cold.
Will everything that gets close to me disappear?
His eyes were red, as if he had been crying, yet also as if he hadn't; they could be tears, or they could be rain—it was impossible to tell in the heavy rain.
Everything vanished in the heavy rain.
He buried the little bird next to his father's and mother's graves.
"Father, Mother, the little bird that You'er wanted to raise has come down to keep you company. You'er will come to find you soon."
He wandered aimlessly like a soulless puppet, getting further and further away from the village, until he saw a river.
Without any hesitation, he walked step by step into the water.
Until the water submerged his hair.
A suffocating feeling spread throughout my body, as if water had rushed into my internal organs.
It feels so awful! Is this what death feels like?
But I'll be able to see my parents and the little bird soon, that's wonderful!
My consciousness is fading, everything is coming to an end, how wonderful!
Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed He You tightly and pulled him toward the shore.
In the midst of the chaos, He You seemed to hear someone say, "You must live well, here's a piece of candy for you."
Then they were plunged into endless darkness.
When he woke up, he found a girl next to him, about the same age as him.
With a fair, oval face and a pair of bright, sparkling eyes beneath her arched eyebrows, the little girl was dressed neatly and cleanly, just like a figure in a painting.
"Little brother, you'll catch a cold lying in the water. Go home early," the little girl said, blinking her bright, sparkling eyes.
"Miss, where are you? Come out quickly!"
A sound came from afar.
"My father is looking for me, I have to go now, little brother, go home soon!"
After saying that, the little girl turned and ran away.
He saw the little girl's father, who picked her up with a loving expression, turned around, and left.
He You watched the figure gradually disappear and clenched his fist.
He found a piece of candy in his hand, with words on the wrapper that he didn't quite understand.
Inside the large opening was a white candy, one he had never seen before.
He wrapped the candy up again and held it tightly in his hand.
~~~
He You suddenly woke up and found a woman lying next to him, who was none other than the third young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion.
He thought he was going to die, but he was destined to survive.
Such a scourge can live on for a thousand years!
He You reached out and touched under Li Baobei's nose.
He's still breathing, so he should be fine.
In his daze, he seemed to hear a familiar voice again in his nightmare.
You must live well.
He looked at the woman beside him, lost in thought.
Why did she save herself?
They even fell off a cliff together? It's truly baffling.
He You stopped thinking about it, got up, and walked towards the woods behind him.
