So she thought, it hurt too much, so she should think of something happy——
Think about the sea of flowers filling the sky in Luoying Valley in the depth of spring in May; think about the aroma of food from the beginning to the end of the town when the sunset begins; think about the whole family laughing and having a snowball fight when the snow is falling in winter...
He doesn't know how to have a snowball fight.
In the middle of winter, the Hanhai Mountains were also covered with knee-deep snow, but he had never had a snowball fight.
Mu's father was very quiet, Chengbo was old, and Lian Shisan was studying martial arts abroad. He had no peers, and his childhood was not very happy.
On the snowy ridge, when she playfully shoved a handful of snow into the back of his neck, he was so dumbfounded that he immediately squeezed a snowball to fight back.
The snow-capped mountains were crystal clear, and his smile was so joyful that it was brighter and brighter than the sun.
He wasn't a bad person, and she didn't fall in love with the wrong person.
But that's as far as they go.
There was another sharp pain in my back.
Her vision was blurry and she couldn't see or hear.
Before she lost consciousness, she vaguely thought that she hoped he would leave a small light in the house at night.
Don't hold on and be afraid to fall asleep, otherwise you may have nightmares...
"Leader, let's leave quickly." The disguised You Guanyue tightly supported the tall man beside her, "If they find out, it will be dangerous again."
The man's slender body was hidden under the wide cloak, and he seemed to stagger a little while moving.
Outside the crowd watching the execution, there were people dressed like this everywhere. The two men's whereabouts did not attract anyone's attention, not to mention that there were many tribesmen mingling with the crowd around them.
Through the low-hanging cloak, Mu Qingyan stared at the girl who had been unmasked.
She had passed out.
Song Yuzhi rushed to the front with a livid face, picked her up, and roared sharply at Qi Lingbo, who was laughing next to him...
"Leader, we really have to go!" You Guanyue looked around worriedly, extremely anxious, "Leader, I know that you are worried about Miss Zhaozhao, but now is not the time! There are still a lot of things in the Hanhai Mountains that you need to take charge of. What’s the big picture!”
Mu Qingyan finally moved. You Guanyue quickly supported him and walked quickly but quietly to the outside of Taichu Temple. Liu Jiangfeng called on the surrounding tribesmen to quietly exit.
The carriage jolted for a long time, and everyone arrived at the bank of Suchuan River, where a large number of people and tall boats were waiting to pick them up.
Mu Qingyan got off the carriage, turned to You Guanyue and said: "Fei Ge sent a message to Tang Qing and Wang Tianfeng, asking them to mobilize most of the manpower in the manor at the western foot of the Hanhai Mountains to support Shangguan Haonan - if he is fighting back Lu Fengchun’s words.”
You Guanyue was stunned and quickly responded.
"Also, send a letter to Thirteen, telling him to go in through the No. 5 tunnel and see if he can collect the whole body of Hu Fengge."
You Guan Yueben was a little hesitant, but when he saw the indifferent gaze of his master, he hurriedly said yes.
"I want to be alone, so don't follow me."
Mu Qingyan drew out the long sword from You Guanyue's waist, and with a slight wave, he split the bamboo raft used for connection in half. Then he stepped on the half without ropes and sat down cross-legged, flowing slowly along the water. Let's go.
I don't know how long I have been floating along the current, but I can vaguely see You Guanyue and others riding horses on the shore and following them carefully.
He unfolded his body and lay flat on the small bamboo raft. His arms, legs, feet, clothes, and long hair were all immersed in the water.
The sky was getting dark, and the bright moon climbed up the branches.
The water flow is very gentle. When you close your eyes, it feels like your father's palm pressing on your forehead when you were sick when you were young.
My father is a person who is gentler and clearer than this river.
However, in this life, nothing he thought about, thought about, or wished for was achieved.
Four years ago, Mu Qingyan secretly swore to his father's body that he would never make the same mistakes as his father.
He wants to have great power and act as he pleases. He wants to be one man in the world and no one dares to bully him——
The fifteen-year-old boy at that time thought that was his only wish.
It wasn't until he met her in the valley of thousands of mountains and rivers that he realized that he had always wanted someone, someone who could love him wholeheartedly like his father.
A person who will never leave him, a person who only belongs to him, a person who loves him enough to be willing to give up his own wishes.
The cool water of the river slowly soaked into the bodies of those who drifted along the current.
From now on, he will forget her as decisively as her leaving figure. Don't be in a hurry, take your time, forget it little by little, and you can always forget it all.
The water flowing down the river is gentle and gentle, with waves coming in waves, as if fingers gently caressing the forehead.
He thought of his father again, but during the days of hiding in the carriage and escaping, a pair of small hands repeatedly pressed on his feverish forehead, and the feeling was gentle and profound...
He covered his eyelids with his slender hands, and silent water drops slowly slid down his cheeks.
【End of this volume】
The author has something to say:
The fever I had half a month ago was already the fourth time I had a fever this year due to fatigue.
After the whole body was healthy, all the indicators were not good, and the doctor gave me a severe warning.
I still cherish my life and will try to update it in the future, but it may not be possible to update it every day.
But no matter what, I will definitely finish this book before the end of 2021.
There are about two volumes left, the emotional part is basically finished, and most of the rest is plot.
Chapter 121
In late autumn, as winter approaches, the vast prison cell made of huge basalt rocks is filled with cold air and cramped conditions.
Shangguan Haonan and You Guanyue walked down the long stone steps side by side, followed by a long group of people. Their leather shoes stepped on the cold and hard rough stone ground, making a very rhythmic clanging sound.
"This is the last one." You Guanyue shook her useless feather fan with a graceful expression.
Shangguan Haonan touched the bandage on his forehead: "Uncle Bali said that was their last lair, and everyone on the list was captured."
You Guanyue switched to a hand-operated fan and sighed: "Uncle Bali, thank you for your hard work. You have to take good care of yourself next time."
Shangguan Haonan accidentally pressed the injured spot on his forehead and grinned: "Who hasn't worked hard in the past year or so? Who hasn't suffered a few injuries? The eighteenth generation of ancestors are such bastards. After eating enough, they insist on holding on." Rebellion! This time we have finally cleaned up, and he has wiped out all the bedbugs, cockroaches and skinny bugs!"
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and said, "I told you to stop shaking your broken fan. Your left arm was hit by Wu Qiutong's hand that split muscles and bones, and your right arm was scratched by two poison darts. It doesn't hurt!"
Unwilling to admit defeat, You Guanyue turned her hand away and held the feather fan behind her back.
The double iron doors, which were more than a foot thick, slowly opened, and waves of faint moans came from the endlessly spreading corridor.
You Guanyue, with heavy dark circles under her eyes, said to Liu Jiangfeng who was guarding behind the door, "Are they all alive?"
Liu Jiangfeng also had bloodstains all over his face and grinned: "Except for a few gangsters, there are fifty-eight main leaders. Eight of them committed suicide, and the rest were all hung up with pipa bones."
"Don't wear it to death."
"Don't worry, brothers are very good at their craftsmanship."
Stepping on the rough basalt floor, large areas of black and red blood filled the dungeon. Passing by racks covered with rusty iron spikes, many once brave and domineering helmsmen and hall masters were hung like strips of bacon. got up.
The ferocious curved cast-iron pipa hook penetrated the dripping flesh and bone, with blood dripping from the tip. There was almost no good flesh left. The dying body screamed at the moment it saw the person coming——
One of them said: "Young dog boy! If you have the ability to fight me to the death with swords and guns!"
Shangguan Haonan immediately sneered: "Hall Master Li, please pull him down. Even I can defeat your Tiger Claw Technique within fifty moves, so don't worry about our leader."
Another man also sprayed blood and shouted wildly: "I can only hate the leader Nie for being too benevolent. Why didn't he and his son be eradicated back then? There would be no disaster today!"
You Guanyue laughed out loud: "If Nie Hengcheng is really that capable, why doesn't he start his own business and create something upright? He secretly plots to seize the Mu family's two-hundred-year-old foundation, huh, the adopted son will backfire, what a despicable thing!"
These words were so harsh that they made several Nie family diehards angry.
As the group continued to walk inside, the damp and cold air became thicker and the smell of blood became lighter.
There were two people hanging on the execution rack at the end of the dungeon. Their bodies were stained with blood and their flesh and skin were torn apart. However, both of them gritted their teeth and held back without uttering any screams. On one side of the execution rack was a small, clean cell with a prisoner inside. Li Ruxin mother and son.
"Elder Lu, senior Yu, long time no see. How are you?" You Guanyue smiled and waved her fan again.
Lu Fengchun showed his age, his gray hair was disheveled, and he no longer looked like the fairy he had before. He said bitterly: "In the past year or so since we retreated from the Hanhai Mountains, you have been chasing us so fiercely that we have nowhere to hide! I have asked people to bring me messages several times to negotiate peace with Mu Qingyan, but you have ignored me. Li, you just want to force us to death!"
Shangguan Haonan said loudly: "Elder Lu's words are meaningless. You have also been through great storms for decades. You should know that our religion is most afraid of traitors. From the moment you raised the flag to rebel, you have been determined to risk your life. "
Lu Fengchun snorted: "Your elders, Yao Guang and Kai Yang, were Nie Hengcheng's confidants, but now you are devoted to serving the Mu family as your master. How ungrateful!"
Shangguan Haonan has no psychological burden: "Hey, Nie Hengcheng, an adopted son, embezzled his adoptive father's inheritance, and he doesn't even realize that he is ungrateful. Where am I?"
He turned around and faced everyone in the dungeon, "A year ago, the leader could have killed all these traitors in one fell swoop, but in order to help us, in order to save us tribesmen who were once Nie Hengcheng's confidants, , he would rather strike a chord and scare the snake away, so he can get away from the culprit, Old Gou Lu! It only took him an extra year to eliminate these traitors one by one!"
"Brothers who are descendants of the Yaoguang and Kaiyang lineages are all well-known men. They should deserve their mistakes and repay their kindness. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses the right tree to roost, so we should be loyal to the leader Mu, right?"
Shangguan Hao was cheerful and heroic, and already quite prestigious. When these words came out, the guards in the dungeon responded.
"Brother Haonan is quick to talk, he is a religious leader who sympathizes with his subordinates. He is both strategic and benevolent. If we don't follow him, why don't we just follow the fucking old turtle Lu who has never been in business for ten thousand years?"
"Brother Haonan, we listen to you. Now we will be loyal to Leader Mu with all our hearts!"
"Master Shangguan Altar is right, not to mention that this Lijiao belongs to his Lao Mu family!"
Lu Fengchun almost broke his yellow teeth, "What do you want?!"
Seeing Shangguan Haonan's response, You Guanyue felt quite sour in her heart. She cleared her throat and raised her voice: "The leader just wants everyone to understand that the Nie family's influence has disappeared, and not even the scum is left. From now on. , people in the divine religion will no longer remember Nie Hengcheng..."
These heartbreaking remarks echoed in the high and claustrophobic dungeon, and dozens of prisoners screamed angrily, ignoring the pipa hooks that penetrated their flesh and blood. Among them, the one with the sharpest voice was actually Li Ruxin.
She pushed her frail son away, held the iron railing with both hands, and struck angrily: "You are not allowed to say that! Although the body of the adoptive father is gone, his voice and smile will always remain in our hearts. What he said We will always remember every word he said and everything he did - his heroic spirit and his blood are still in this world!"
Nie's die-hard fans all agreed.
You Guanyue groaned, "Bloodline... I almost forgot." He looked at Shangguan Haonan, "Are you coming or am I coming? It's not easy to talk about such private matters." He is still unmarried, so he needs to be more reserved.
Shangguan Haonan said impatiently: "So many brothers have died, and you are still coy. Get out of the way, I'll do it!" He strode forward and said loudly: "Yu Huiyin, do you know your guilt?"
Yu Huiyin slowly raised his head, "I, I..."
Shangguan Haonan did not wait for an answer, put his hands on his hips and said loudly: "Yu Huiyin, when did you and Li Ruxin start having an affair?"
Yu Huiyin didn't expect that the other party would ask this. He seemed to be burned and screamed repeatedly: "No, no, no, I didn't..."
Li Ruxin was as arrogant as a jade sculpture and said coldly: "I have no personal relationship with him. Don't try to taint my innocence."
You Guanyue spoke at the right time: "Senior Yu, just recruit him. Nie Hengcheng treated you mediocrely during his lifetime, and he has not seen you pay homage to him for more than ten years after his death. Apart from Li Ruxin, what other reason do you have to raise a rebellion?"
