Chapter 4 - I Must Live This godforsaken Place

Chapter 4

"My brother is dead due to my actions.

My once loving sister is angry with me.

"The villagers never accepted as one of their own.

I think I would like to leave this godforsaken

place.

It has already done too much damage to everything I once called dear to me.

One of my friend ....no a brother is gone and they would pay dearly for taking what is truly valued from me," muttered Li Ziao under his breath as he broke into tears,realising the gravity of his little but grave mistake.

With a voice filled with pain, he shoutes into the air wanting the world to feel his pain.

Ahhhhhhhh!!!

His sister looks at him with eyes full of wrath "I feel the pain of losing a brother and we both know that you are the cause for this.

If you ever want anything from me, don't ask,

it might lead to your death, the only thing you can do is to bring him back to life.

It is all my fault for asking him to pick up a useless good for nothing fool like you when we saw you on the street.

A mistake that is paid for with his life.

Looking at Lin Ziao with a pain-filled expression on her face, she walkes away leaving the young boy to face the wrath of the world on his own.

Faced with the pain of losing a brother and the blame of a once loving sister,he decides

to leave Flying Peng village.

...…....

At the dead of the night .....

"I have to leave this village, I just can't stay anymore,

Maybe I would go up the mountain to stay, at least Big Brother Han once hunted there," thought Li Ziao to himself as he struggled to fall asleep.

He walks over to the balcony and sits as he began to star at the dark sky that was decorated with countless stars that accompanied a big and radiant moon whose light shone far and near, illuminating all of Lin Ziao's surrounding.

His expression which was illuminated by moonlight constantly changed from worry to fear, sadness to pain and then hot tears would occasionally stream down his cheek any time he thought of Qiao Han.

He had decided to go and buy some hunting equipments with his meager savings of around 60 taels of silver coin which he hoped could get him enough weapons.

He had learnt the art of bow and arrow from Big Brother Han while he was still young but rarely praticised due to lack of arrows.

He hoped to buy enough arrows that he would be using with his Big Brother's bow which was already succumbing to wear and tear but should be able to last his use. He also decided to go out the next day to secure the needed equipments that would aid him in his journey.

Soon the moon switched places with the sun in the sky and it was already morning.

Yawn

Good morning
