Why not hang yourself on the southeast tree

Three days later, I was discharged from the hospital.

The living environment changed from the hospital bed to the washbasin under the bed.

The wing was splinted, it's not a big deal, just a little inconvenient to move.

Lao Li had never kept a pet, so he had to figure out everything by himself and avoid other people in the dormitory.

He tortured me so much that I went hungry for nine meals in three days, and my throat was smoking from thirst, but I couldn't get water into my mouth.

【Ga----】

Can't you give me a bottle with a bigger and deeper mouth?

When can I drink the water in the bowl?

Don’t you notice that my mouth is so long and big?

Lao Li took the trouble to dig earthworms for me from the muddy ground beside the road. Seeing him excitedly put the cleaned earthworms in front of me, I wanted to die...

【Gah...】

Take it away, I won’t eat it.

Old Li remembered how we first met, and at lunch time he specially left a small piece of white rice, made it into a rice ball with his hands, and brought it back to the dormitory for me to eat.

At that time, I was so hungry that I felt dizzy and my eyes widened when I saw the rice.

For the next five days, Lao Li fed me rice balls, occasionally changing to white steamed buns.

Fortunately, I am not a picky eater. Even though I was choking and rolling my eyes, I still stretched my neck and swallowed it in big gulps.

On this day, before Lao Li came back, the guy sleeping on the upper bunk flipped over stealthily, kicked the quilt on Lao Li's bed away, then jumped to the ground, groping under the pillow with his hands.

I saw through the gap his nostrils flaring with excitement——

Sure enough, Lao Li hid the money in the pillowcase.

[Bah, poor bastard! That's all!]

Originally, this matter was known only to heaven and earth, and only I and he knew it.

But this man was not satisfied and cleaned out the beds of several other people as well, and actually got some benefits.

Next, he set his sights on searching under the bed, dragging out suitcases, woven bags, burlap bags, etc., and searching everywhere.

He didn't mind the trouble. Some people stuffed their beds with smelly socks. The smell lingered in the room for three days and made them dizzy.

I huddled in the basin, feeling a little nervous.

A big hand quickly reached in, and at this moment——

The door creaked open and Lao Li came back with a familiar rice ball in his hand.

There were several people behind him.

Through the wide-open door, everyone could see the scene in the room that was like a swarm of locusts.

Old Li didn't have time to think about it. He had already seen that the washbasin was half dragged out, so he rushed forward and grabbed the man's hand.

【What are you doing!!!】

There was a mixture of anger and nervousness in his voice, but the man whose hand was grabbed was even more nervous than him. He ran out without saying a word.

Several people at the door who didn't have time to dodge were knocked to the ground, cursing.

[Fuck, this bastard actually stole something! ]

[I was wondering why I didn't see him during dinner today. He was the most active in serving food in the past! ]

[I guess they came to raid us without telling us! Luckily I don’t have any cash, I put all my money in my WeChat wallet.]

[Brothers, count quickly, how much money was lost, the stolen goods are still there...]

Old Li stuffed the washbasin back under the bed and then he could take care of his own business.

He usually tied up his cash with rubber bands, so the bundle of large and small bills among the stolen goods was his.

When the other people saw this, they all rushed over to take the remaining money.

Perhaps out of greed, the one who said that all his money was in his WeChat wallet also went up and drew a few big bills.

As soon as a few people had a disagreement, they immediately turned from allies to enemies. It started with a push and then turned into a fight, which started a group fight.

Old Li quickly took the wash basin and hid away to avoid being affected by the fighting. His old arms and legs could not withstand the beatings of a few young men with no place to use their strength...

After a long while, the sound of fighting could no longer be heard, and a lot of messy mattresses, pillows and other things were thrown outside the door.

[Those who lose the fight will probably have to move to another dormitory. ]

Old Li muttered to himself.

I held his hand and ate the rice ball bit by bit. The world was big, but rice was the biggest.

That day, the guy on the upper bunk didn't come back, and he wasn't seen on the construction site for more than a week.

The foreman didn't give any explanation. There are so many surveillance cameras in the dormitory, it's impossible for him not to know the inside story, he just doesn't want to care.

After all, this brother-in-law is not so legitimate. His biological second sister is the third child he raised outside.

The existence of the crow has always been kept strictly secret by Lao Li.

By the time my wings were fully grown and I could fly, the people in my dormitory didn't even notice that there was someone breathing in the room.

That day, I quietly slipped out of the dormitory and wandered around the construction site.

As luck would have it, I ran into the foreman who was smoking a cigarette and had moved a bamboo rocking chair under the sun. The spring sun was not that strong, and it was just the right time to dry off the moisture on my body.

Above his head is a tower crane, rotating 360 degrees to transport large steel materials.

There were a lot of walnut and peanut candies on the stool next to the foreman, accompanied by a cup of strong tea with a lingering tea aroma. I was so greedy that my little feet kept jumping on the spot.

After Lao Li unloaded the last bag of cement, he just straightened up to catch his breath when his eyes met mine who was standing on the excavator.

His eyes suddenly became panic-stricken. He wanted to call me loudly, but was afraid of exposing my presence. He was extremely conflicted.

at this time--

The steel rope on the tower crane suddenly collapsed for some reason, and the steel weighing several tons suddenly lost its balance and tilted to one side, and was about to fall freely.

The foreman who was taking a nap with his face covered by a straw hat below had no idea that fate had strangled him.

Life and death are in an instant.

【Ga----】

A loud crow's cry suddenly sounded.

The extremely superstitious foreman jumped up from his rocking chair as if he had been pricked by a needle in the buttocks, threw away his straw hat and stood up.

In a flash, Lao Li, who had been focusing on me, discovered the source of my warning. He rushed over like a cannonball and knocked the foreman to the ground before the steel hit the ground.

The two people fell into a pit two meters away like a stack of human figures.

The foreman was about to start cursing when he saw seven or eight steel bars coming down at an angle, and the rocking chair where he had just been lying was the first to be hit and crushed to pieces.

There was a second of silence at the construction site.

It's like the pause button has been pressed.

The foreman turned his neck stiffly, creaking, and looked at Old Li, who was pushed away by his conditioned reflex, with the expression on his face almost cracked.

[Boss, are you okay?! ]

Some of his subordinates who were quick to see the opportunity came over to ask questions, they were covered in dust and had frightened expressions on their faces.

[Well, no one is dead, right? No one is injured?! ]

The subordinate pointed at the two of them and said, "Except for the two of you, everyone else is fine. How is Lao Li?"

Old Li didn't say anything because he fainted out of helplessness.

The foreman patted his chest to calm himself and told someone to call 120. Lao Li saved his life, and he remembered this favor.

But what was that crow's cry just now?
