Su An checked the place he came in several times. After confirming that the door had disappeared, he resignedly walked into the dilapidated house.
It was really hot inside the deserted house.
The land is so dehydrated that it is dry and cracked, and the tall weeds are wilting. The plum rain outside is in May and June, but inside it is midsummer, and the intense heat has made the air slightly distorted.
Su An walked into the house, with big beads of sweat on his eyelashes, which made his eyes hurt. He wiped his face and looked up again. The dilapidated house in front of him suddenly became brand new.
The middle-aged woman with a sallow complexion hurriedly walked out of the house with a handful of vegetables, as if she couldn’t see Su An, and went to the yard to wash the vegetables.
A man sitting on a bench in the room was fixing the table with nails, “Damn it, where’s the hammer?”
The middle-aged woman in the yard said: “At the table! He Dagen, how many times have I told you, why can’t you remember it in your head!”
The middle-aged man sighed and muttered: “I’m deaf, I can’t hear.”
He Dagen?
Are they He Taosheng’s parents?
The woman finished washing the dishes and hurried back to the main room, “Dad, our son wants to eat meat. Why don’t you go buy a pound of meat?”
The man sighed and didn’t want to go, but he still stood up and clapped his hands, “Okay.”
Su An subconsciously followed the man out.
The scenery outside was completely different from what it was in reality. The sun was so strong that it could kill people. Chickens and ducks were walking all over the ground. Two or three steps away, there was a native dog lying in the shadow with its tongue hanging out to radiate heat.
There is no rain, no puddles everywhere, and no high threshold to prevent zombies.
Su An didn’t see He Taosheng, so he followed his father calmly to buy meat. The butcher’s house was killing a pig. As soon as father He stepped into the house, a smile suddenly appeared on his sad face, “Hey, Brother Liu, I want a pound of meat.”
The pig butcher was also named Liu. He glanced at Father He indifferently, cut a piece of fat meat with a strong smell and threw it on the scale, “One pound, fifteen yuan, give me the money.”
The scale clearly showed less than a pound.
But Father He seemed to be used to it. He took out the money from his pocket with a smile, “Brother Liu, this piece of meat is too fat. Can you give me another piece of lean meat?”
“Fat meat is so good!” Brother Liu glared, “In the past, when people bought meat, they only bought fat meat. Are you still not happy if I take care of you and give you fat meat?”
He cursed in a low voice, “Indeed just an outside, so effeminate.”
Father He shut his mouth, slowly bent his back, lifted the meat, and walked out the door in silence.
Su An followed Father He at a short distance. After passing an intersection, Father He suddenly straightened his back and shouted loudly: “He Taosheng!”

Su An was in a daze, but Father He had already walked over quickly and grabbed He Taosheng’s ears angrily, “You can’t beat anyone, who else do you want to beat to tears?”
——”Su An, you idiot! You don’t know how to hide when they beat you? You can’t beat anyone, who else do you want to beat away!”
In his memory, a beggar jumped in anger and slapped little Su An on the head, “You made me so angry!”
“You’re pissing me off!” Father He carried He Taosheng in his stride toward the house, “I even bought you meat to eat, just eat shit!”
He Taosheng glanced at the fat meat in Father He’s hand, with a disgusted expression on his face, and said angrily: “I don’t want to eat this meat, it’s unpalatable!”
Su An suddenly laughed.
He Taosheng’s ears suddenly moved and he looked towards Su An’s position, but saw nothing.
The system had been saying less and less these past few worlds, but at this moment it took the initiative to ask: “Host, what are you laughing at?”
Su An said: “I seem to see myself.”
He paused and added: “Myself in real life.”
Su An grew up as an orphan and was adopted by his foster parents when he was four or five years old. They were very kind to Su An, but after the adoptive mother became pregnant, she was afraid that she would not be able to support Su An and give equal care to the two children, so she would often break down and cry because of her emotional sensitivity. The adoptive parents struggled for a long time and finally decided to send Su An back to the orphanage.
Su An overheard their conversation and ran out of the house that night. He thought that even if he didn’t go back, he could support himself. A child’s innocence and anger were worn away by reality. Su An lost his way, had no food and no place to sleep, and was almost abducted by human traffickers. Fortunately, a beggar saved him.
Su An was raised by a beggar.
He is not a good boy. He can steal food and pick locks to open doors and windows. The beggar has taught him a lot. These things are not good things, but they are things that will allow him to live to adulthood.
He’s done a lot of things that would get him called a “bad boy” if he said them out loud, and being defiant is one of them. When he was bullied by other kids, his fists would also clenched tightly, thinking that he would punch them back, and then he would run away after punching them back.
Su An regarded that beggar as his family member, and he doesn’t feel ashamed being raised by a beggar. It’s just that when he became sensible, he realized how bad what he had done was. On the surface, he pretended to be arrogant and noble, as if none of them were worthy to play with him, but in his heart he had a low self-esteem, especially when it came to the one he liked——
Su An was stunned and laughed strangely.
Has he ever liked anyone before?
Father He has already brought He Taosheng into the house.
Time passed very quickly in the fantasy world. When it was time for dinner, He Taosheng took a bite of meat and chewed it silently. He said he didn’t like meat before, but now he stuffed it into his mouth one bite at a time.
His father and mother secretly laughed, “This kid lied when he said he didn’t like the meat.”
Su An observed carefully for a while, “He really doesn’t like eating fat meat.”
“I don’t like eating either,” He shrugged, “But he can eat anything when he can’t be picky.”
The system said: “Really? I think He Taosheng likes to eat it.”
Su An said skillfully: “Because he doesn’t want to make his parents sad. I think he will vomit everything he eats now, but he thinks that his parents are not willing to take a bite, so he will endure it even if he wants to vomit.”
Unable to hold back, Su An sighed: “This child is really…” So much like me.
It’s like applying my experience to him.
After dinner, He Taosheng went out to take a shower with his father. When he squatted down, his face turned pale, and he suddenly raised his hand to cover his mouth. He looked like he was about to vomit.
Father He patted his son on the back, “Son, have you made any friends today?”
He Taosheng said dully: “I don’t want to make friends.”
Father He said “Aiyo”, “You are so awesome, you don’t even want to make friends with others.”
He Taosheng lowered his head even lower, “Humph.”
At night, He Taosheng was lying on the bed. His mother walked into the room and put a glass of water for him beside the bed, “Sheng-Sheng, your dad said you were beaten today.”
He Taosheng buried his head in the pillow and shed tears quietly.
Su An stood aside and looked at him, he paused, then leaned over, and gently touched the back of He Taosheng’s head.
He Taosheng raised his head suddenly, “Who touched my head?!”
Mother He said strangely: “What’s wrong?”
He Taosheng looked around blankly. He got out of bed, put on his shoes, pushed his mother out of the room, and groped around the empty room inch by inch.
“Who is it?”
Su An stood in the corner, watching him slowly touch where he was.
The little hand waved and passed through Su An’s body.
“Strange,” He Taosheng said in a low voice, “There is nothing.”
Su An put his hands on his hips and smiled, kid, blame it on the older you for not wanting the illusionary you to see me.
He Taosheng suddenly said: “Are you here to be my friend?”
Su An felt soft. He stretched out his hand, and gently played with He Taosheng’s hair.
He Taosheng’s eyes slowly opened wide, shining with surprise, “Wow—— are you the Wind God?!”
Su An flicked his forehead with his finger, and rolled his eyes and said, “In your dreams, kid.”
Whatever He Taosheng did after that, Su An didn’t respond to him. But He Taosheng was still so excited that he didn’t fall asleep until late at night. After he closed his eyes, the next second, the moon quickly set in the west, the early sun peeked out, and it was already dawn.
He Taosheng opened his eyes suddenly, his soft black hair sticking out in all directions. He rubbed his eyes and whispered: “Wind God?”
A breeze blew gently, helping him straighten his messy hair.
He Taosheng grinned, jumped out of bed, and ran out refreshed, “Mom, I’m going to collect firewood first!”
Xiao Sheng: “Wind God, come with me, I will take you to play by the river!”
So early in the morning, there was almost no one at the riverside at the west end of the village. But for He Taosheng, the happiest time was when no one was around. He walked carefully from the bridge over the river to the other side and picked up firewood at the edge of the woods.
After picking it up, it was still early, so He Taosheng ran to the water’s edge and saw a dilapidated doll under the bridge.
He Taosheng drew his legs and ran over to the doll, lifting it up, his eyes glowing, “Wow!”
Su An suddenly felt a dull pain in his head.
He rubbed his bulging temples and gritted his teeth, vaguely listening to He Taosheng’s words coming from afar.
“Doll, I’ll give you a chance to be my friend,” The child’s serious voice made people laugh, “First of all, I want to give you a name.”
His voice gradually changed into Su An’s voice when he was young.
At that time, Su An lived with an old beggar in a bridge cave by the river. He had no friends, but one day, he picked up a doll under the bridge.
That doll was extremely beautiful, neat and intact, as if someone had placed it there specially. Little Su An let out a “wow”, held it in his arms in surprise, and said domineeringly: “You will be my friend from now on.”
“First of all, I have to give you a nice name!”
The little beggar who was four or five years old had no education, but he puffed out his chest and said confidently: “If you want to be my friend, your name must also be nice. My name is two characters, and your name must also be two characters. That way we match.”
The little beggar thought for a long time and said hesitantly: “I was born in the orphanage.The mother director said that I should take the orphanage’s surname, so my name is Ping An. You were born by the river, so how about you be called Jiang Sheng? ”
His voice grew smaller and smaller as he said, apprehensive and self-conscious: “Doesn’t it sound good?”
