。
几天后，哥哥几乎走遍了整个谷地，但令他很失望，峭壁上跟本没有出去的路。只是在壁谷的西面；有一泉洞，里面的水很深，水往东流去，形成了一条河，这也不可能是出路。莫非，这里的出路就是这条河口？于是，哥哥又花了一些时间，走到了河的出口，河是从一个狭小的深谷流出去的，人根本无法进出，因为船也无法划进来。又一个希望失落了，接下来唯一想到的，就是看是否有地洞出去了。
时间一天一天地过去了，除了主人的那个房间不让哥哥进去以外，其它地方哥哥都细心搜查过了，找不到地洞，哥哥再次感到特别的失望。哥哥准备做一排木伐，从那个可怕的河口冒死出去，他想上帝会可怜他的，不会让他死在那里的，就是上帝不慈善，哥哥也要冒这一死。
计划已定，哥哥从他住的那个房间找来了一把生锈的菜刀，每天带到山上去削木头。因为刀不快；哥哥花了一段时间才削了十八根木头；或许已经够做木伐了。哥哥一直把它们放在山上晒干。这里很热；要不了几天就会干了。哥哥每天都在安慰自己：〃我就快出去了；快离开这里了。〃
削好木头的第二天早上；哥哥迷迷糊糊地睁开眼睛；觉得全身酸痛；原来哥哥昨天晚上就是靠在餐桌上睡的；桌上的饭还剩一大半；白菜汤是喝完了。哥哥猜想；一定是汤里加了安眠药；使他晚上一睡不醒。但主人们为什么要这样做呢？
哥哥去放羊的时候；发现羊少了二十只；对；哥哥突然想起；昨天下午他赶羊回来的时候；主人们把二十只肥大的羊牵到另一个羊圈去了。但当哥哥跑到那个羊圈后；里面没有羊；却有很多血迹；一定是他们把羊杀了拿去卖了。这时；哥哥才明白；主人们让他喝下安眠药是为了不让他发现他们是怎么样出去卖羊肉的。
几天后的一个下午；主人们又牵走了二十只羊；哥哥知道；他们又要把羊杀了出去卖。这天晚上；哥哥把菜汤倒了；连饭也不敢吃；就装着靠在桌上睡；哥哥也发现主人们多次来看他是否睡着了。一段时间后；主人们没有再来看哥哥了；然后便听到了羊叫声；哥哥便偷偷地出去看个究竟。不错；主人们正在杀羊；他们非常熟练；三个多小时就把全部羊皮剥完了。然后他们便开始抬第一只羊进他们的房间；十来分钟后才出来。
哥哥感到不解；等他们抬第二只羊进去的时候；就偷偷地跟到房间窗前。哥哥往里看去；却不见主人们。这时；门也没关；里面的一根蜡烛还亮着；哥哥走了进去；才发现这里面有个地洞；还安装有铁门；主人们一定是从这里出去了。哥哥发现地洞后就忙着出来房间；因为主人们就快回来了。
哥哥躲在一个角落里，等主人们出来以后，他便进了房间，下了地洞。洞里很黑，哥哥慢慢地走进去。不一会儿，哥哥发现前面有一丝烛光，原来是前面有一辆车，蜡烛就是放在车前。
哥哥看清楚车上没人，便壮着胆子往前走，到车前才知道车上装的是羊肉。车能行到这里来了，当然前面的路也就平多了，哥哥就拼命地往前跑。哥哥很害怕，怕在路上会遇见人，也怕主人们追来，他头上的汗水在往下流，身上的衣服已湿了。
不久，哥哥能看见月光了，哥哥已经出洞了！但是，哥哥已经太累了，他在路边的一个不易被人发现的地方休息片刻，又继续往前走，或许这样安全些。
半个小时左右，哥哥翻过了一座山，此时，哥哥看见了山脚下灯光灿烂，那就是他流浪的城市！他飞似地往山脚下跑去，他又回到了流浪的城市！
哥哥回想过去的一工切遭遇，他的心伤透了。走遍天下家最好，流浪的日子，无情的遭遇，在家那有？他要回家，即使没有车费，他也要自己走回家；他要回家，即使走得再累，哥哥也要拖着疲惫的步伐，踏进他温馨的家，一个布满他脚印的家，一片有父母关怀的热土上！
哥哥在公园的摇椅上睡了一觉，由于太累了，一睡就没知觉了。醒来的时候，他又睡在那茅屋里了，门边依然坐着主人们，只不过还多了一个和哥哥年龄相差不多的女孩。
“我是在做梦吗？”哥哥大叫一声。
“不是，你不是在做梦，昨晚你确实脱出去了，但你在公园睡得那么死，我们找到了你，再给你吃下一片安眠药，就轻而易举地把你抬回来了。这女孩也是我们买的，是给你做妻子的。不要以为我们是什么坏人，我们只是没有孩子，才叫买你们做孩子。以后我们就是一家人了，吃穿都会满足你们的。你们现在看羊去吧。”女主人说道。
在看羊的路上，哥哥和女孩保持了一段很长的沉默。后来，哥哥停住了脚步，抬头看着她，她长发飘逸，穿着长裙，她美若天的脸蛋也转过头来看着哥哥。
“我叫龙进捷，你呢？”哥哥问道。
“我叫郦盈雪，你可以叫我小雪。”她的声音很动听，她的名字也因此增添了几分色彩，也更渲染了她的美丽。
“小雪，你是怎么也被卖到这里来的？”哥哥道。
“我……我有些话我不知道该不该说，我好害怕。”小雪说。
“‘同是天涯伦落人，相逢何必曾相识？’你说吧。”哥哥道。
“我……我从小就……哦，我是被一辆出租车卖到这里来的。”小雪说着，声音有点颤抖，哥哥知道她哭了，她一定有一肚子的心事，不知向谁诉说。哥哥不想让她那么伤心，就想办法安慰她说：“小雪，你看，路边这朵花好漂亮。”
“是呀，但它很快就会凋谢了。”小雪悲道。
“ 不，小雪，它是不会凋谢的，至少它现在没有凋谢，至于以后嘛，我们看不见了，的以它的美在我们眼中是不会凋谢了。”哥哥说。
她笑了，她笑起来更加美丽，就像这朵花，在哥哥的眼里永远是不会凋谢的。
“小雪，你听，树林里的鸟儿们在为我们歌唱哩。”哥哥道。
她没有说话，只是摇头，从中，哥哥看出她有很深的痛处，这些语言她已经不感兴趣了。哥哥自己也觉得说这些话太无聊，自己还在遇难中呢。而后，哥哥给小雪讲了她的故事，他离家出走，他流浪的遭遇。她一直静静地听着，听完后，她对哥哥说：“你好伟大，我从你身上找到了希望，至少我比你幸福。你的精神点燃了我心中的巨火，我相信我们能走出困境的。”哥哥握紧了她的手，她的手娇嫩柔和。
“坚强起来吧，我们能战胜困难的！”哥哥深深地吸口气道。
“啊，我的手……好痛呀。”小雪羞道。
“什么，受伤了吗？”哥哥连忙放开了她的手，她又玫次对哥哥笑了，哥哥真想她能够一辈子这样对他笑。后来，她也对哥哥讲了好的故事。她从小父母离婚，她随母，她连她父亲长什么样子她都不知道。她妈妈是医生，母女生活还是很快乐的。妈妈供她读完了初中，她也是刚毕业的。不幸的是，前几天她妈妈因车祸离开了人世。她的家，就只留下了她一个人。昨天晚上，就被一辆出租国车卖到这里来了。说完后，哥哥哭了，她更是泣不成声。
哭了一阵之后，她擦干了眼泪，伸手来也为哥哥擦泪水，哥哥再次感到了她的温柔。她说：“龙进捷，你也哭了，我一直以为男人是没有眼泪的，因为我以前从未见过男人哭过。我爸离我妈而走，使我深深地痛恨了世上的每一个男人，所以就连我的姓也是跟着我妈妈的。现在，我想在‘痛恨世界上的每个男人’之前加一个‘除了你’。
“小雪……！！！”哥哥感动道。
她又笑了，但她笑得很费劲，她分明是在逗哥哥笑。
