"Battle me to death, a wild breed, a dog that is stray, and dares to fight back, but you don't know how to live or die!" A young man in gorgeous clothes roared at a thin boy curled up on the ground.

Several teenagers in their fifteen or sixteen kept kicking and hitting the boy. The teenagers in the gorgeous clothes kicked each other from time to time and cursed in dirty words.

The boy had blood on the corner of his mouth, endured the pain, and glared at them, like a hungry wolf who wanted to choose someone to eat. But he did not stand up, not because he was afraid, but because he protected his younger brother's supper in his arms. If it was beaten up, his younger brother would go hungry tonight, so he could only endure it!

"Okay, stop beating!" The young man in the Chinese costume kicked his companion away with an unhappy look and cursed: "It's so fucking unhappy. You can't kill this wild species, bah!" After that, he spat on the boy.

"Hmph, it's a bargain. If it weren't for Grandpa's explanation..."

"Shut up!"

A young man with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek was about to say something, but the young man in the gorgeous clothes interrupted him and said viciously: "Xia Ming, do you want to die!"

The boy named Xia Ming seemed to have thought of something, his face turned pale, and he burst into cold sweat, and he thought to himself: "I almost broke the taboo, it's so dangerous!"

"Let's go, wait a few days later, this beast will recover from the injury. Let's take good care of him, haha..."

"Oh...got!"

...

Xia Gang left with his companions proudly.

After a while, the boy got up with difficulty. Although he gritted his teeth and refused to cry, he finally shed tears of humiliation. After all, he was just a child.

"Dad, where are you? Are you really no longer here... The boy is so tired..." The boy murmured to himself at the lonely sky.

A breeze blew, full of bleakness, and the boy suddenly felt unprecedented loneliness and helplessness...

Looking at the buns that were already covered with dust in his arms, the boy sighed helplessly, dragging his exhausted wounded body and limped away...

This son is named Xia Tianlang, and he also has a younger brother named Xia Tianhu. He is a child of the Xia family, the largest family in Gulan City. He fell accidentally when his father went out to perform family tasks, and his mother was overly sad and depressed, leaving behind their miserable brothers.

The two brothers, without their parents' protection, were quickly expelled from the family. They were wandering in the wilderness and depended on the old man in a straw hut outside Gulan City.

What’s strange is that no one of the elders and uncles who had been with their parents stood up to speak for them, nor did anyone help these two lonely and helpless children. It makes people sigh that the world is getting worse and the people’s hearts are not old.

Xia Tianlang still cannot forget the cold eyes of his tribe members, who were once favored by his parents and were once extremely kind to him, completely changing his face, as if he wanted to crush the two brothers, but he seemed to be afraid of something and dare not take action.

In the past, he had asked his father curiously: "Dad, why do you give me and my brother two words the names, while the rest of the family have the same word?"

His father replied, "How can my son be like them! He has been cowardly for half his life. I hope my son has a wolf-like nature, is as stoic and fierce as a wolf, controls his own destiny, controls the group of wolves, and is no longer as cowardly as me, and is bullied."

"Dad is so powerful, how can he be cowardly? Who dares to bully him?"

"You are still young, and you will understand when you grow up... After all, you are still unwilling to accept it. Don't let your father down. You may need to protect your younger brother in the future, do you know!"

"Well, don't worry, dad, I will definitely protect my brother."

Later, she was kicked out of the Xia family. Xia Tianlang remembered his father's words at that time and couldn't help but wonder if his father had foresaw something.

...

The setting sun gradually drooped westward, and a ray of afterglow fell on Xia Tianlang's body, warm and comfortable, making him feel a little relieved of the pain all over his body.

He wiped the tears with his sleeves, tidied up the dusty coarse cloth, making himself look as energetic as possible, and then quickly walked towards a hill.

"Oh~, brother is back!" A young boy with a skinny and thin bones jumped over and held Xia Tianlang's hand excitedly.

He touched the little boy's head indulgently, handed the bun over, and said apologetically: "I accidentally fell on the road, and the bun was dirty, so I'll eat it."

"It's okay, brother, you can eat it too!" As he said that, Xia Tianhu handed the biggest bun to his brother very sensible.

"I've eaten it, I'll send two to Old Man Meng!" Xia Tianlang patted his brother's thin shoulder like a little adult, feeling uncomfortable. He couldn't even take good care of his only brother. What kind of brother am I?

What he didn't know was that Xia Tianhu's eyes turned red as soon as he turned around. He thought his younger brother was too young and ignorant. He thought his younger brother had not noticed his bruises all over his body. He thought his younger brother hadn't noticed his slightly purple face that endured the pain...

Xia Tianlang walked to a tattered straw shed and lay down tiredly, as if he had taken off a thousand pounds of weight. He relaxed all over and couldn't help but breathe a long breath. The grass on the ground was cold, as if his mother's hands were gentle and powerful when she was a child, carrying his small body.

The scenery of Xiaoshangang is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. Xia Tianlang turned his face to look at his younger brother. His younger brother was eating buns not far away while teasing a little squirrel. This was his only playmate. When Xia Tianlang went into the mountain to collect herbs, he was pitiful and brought back.

A breeze blew, whirling Xia Tianlang's thin coarse cloth clothes, revealing his thin little body, but seeing the protruding ribs, it was such a thirteen-year-old boy who carried the burden of supporting three people. At this moment, he was asleep deeply. Only when he returned here would he feel a little peace.

As night fell, the stars were dotted, and the summer tiger had already returned to the thatched hut to sleep. A cool breeze blew gently, and the summer wolf opened its eyes and looked at the stars in the sky.

"I heard that people will turn into stars after death, and go back to the sky, father... mother... which star is you? Are you also watching me and my brother in the sky?" Xia Tianlang murmured to himself.

"Who will wake up first in my dream? I know it in my life. I have enough sleep in the cottage in spring, and the days outside the window are delayed."

Only a long and meaningful voice was heard from the straw hut. Those who didn't know must think that it was a master who was reciting poems, but Xia Tianlang knew that it was just a crazy old man.

A thin old man with wrinkles and white hair and hair was covered with his hands and walked to Xia Tianlang with a frog step. He lay down without any image, facing Xia Tianlang's little head. It can be seen that he was very happy today.

The hem of the old man's cloth clothes was rotten into strips, and there were thick layers of calluses under his feet, not even his shoes, and it was covered with dust, making him look very down and out.

"Old man Meng, the sun has been setting for a long time, and you have just gotten up, so you are so embarrassed to say what the day is going to take!" Xia Tianlang said hatefully, a little annoyed, he interrupted his thoughts.

"Boy, you're so resentful. You're beaten again?"

"Can you still have a good chat?" Xia Tianlang gave him a blank look.

Old Man Meng didn't refute and sighed, "Boy, thank you for your hard work in the past few years. You have to take care of your younger brother and take care of my old bones!"

"Don't be self-indulgent, I just think you are pitiful!" Xia Tianlang said stubbornly.

However, Old Man Meng didn't care about his stubbornness and continued, "Old man, I still can't understand why you and I are not close to each other, so why should I take care of me? It's been four years since you were nine years old. As long as you have a bite of food, you won't be like this. Even if you are kicked out of the Xia family, you still haven't left my old bones. What do you think you are trying to do?"

"What are you trying to do? I don't know what I'm trying to do. I heard from my dad that I have a grandfather who has been away for many years. I have never seen him before. When I saw you, you were dying. At that time, I thought my grandfather was so old. Is he so lonely and helpless outside and has no one to take care of, so I kept giving you food? Maybe it's because of my grandfather I've never met, maybe I'm asking for peace of mind!" Xia Tianlang looked at the night sky and said affectionately.

Who would have thought that this was just a thirteen-year-old child. He had been silently caring for a lonely and helpless old man since he was nine years old. At the age of ten, he had nothing except his younger brother who was only five years old at that time, but while taking care of his younger brother, he still did not give up on this poor old man.

Old Man Meng sighed. It was such a fate that he was so lucky. Thinking about his grandest man who was ranked among the top in the entire continent, he was wandering in the world and was rescued by such a irrelevant little guy. If he had been known by his old friends and opponents back then, he would have no idea what he would have been laughed at.
