Wu Ma Xin took a step forward, the sound of the copper bell sounded, and the blank walls on both sides suddenly unfolded like scrolls, covered with familiar murals, which was the place where he lived a small life - Qiaodong Village.

Everything was so familiar, the father sitting in front of the low house, the mother washing clothes by the stream, she was so young, Wu Ma burst into tears, and pounced on it and rubbed it with her hands. The mural suddenly trembled, and a force pulled Wu Maxin into it and stood in front of the mother.

His mother didn't seem to see him at all, she still kept beating her clothes, laughing with the people next to her, she didn't have children yet, and she really envied these women who had many children around.

No children? Wu Ma was stunned, it seemed that he had not yet been born.

The neighbor's child came to call Wu Ma Xin's mother home, saying that someone had come to see off the child, and Wu Qi asked her to go back quickly. The boy was only four or five years old, and he didn't speak very well.

"Oooh. Wu Maxin's mother agreed, put down the gavel, wiped her hands on her clothes, and followed the child back. Wu Minxin followed closely, the scene along the way was so familiar, the villagers were in groups, Uncle He was also there, and his daughter-in-law with a big ass was filling his bag with dry food, I am afraid that he was going to enter the mountain again.

As if they couldn't see Wu Ma's heart, everyone looked through his body.

The village is noisy and busy, people in red, yellow, blue and green clothes compete with each other, and the people wander around dizzily, even the Chinese New Year is not so lively. The Wang blacksmith's house at the head of the village, the Ma family who opened a mill in the village, the Lou family near the side of the mountain, and the Cheng family who sewed and mended needlework in the west of the village were all surrounded by people.

These clothes are familiar, and these people look even more familiar. Wu Ma Xin carefully identified that it was Mu Yangzhe who came out of Lou's house, and it was Brother Shui Shen Tu Yuheng who stood in the courtyard of the Cheng family, but he didn't know the person who entered the Wang family, it was an old man, and the red robe was embroidered with gold thread bird patterns. Wu Ma didn't have time to think about it, he had returned to his door, and the situation in front of him was even more spectacular, the outside of the courtyard was heavily guarded by Fu soldiers, and the courtyard was full of various colors of battle robes, surrounded by a middle-aged man in a golden battle robe.

Duanguo often had Fu soldiers come to send children to the families of the people who had not given birth, and most of them were orphans escorted from Shenzhou in Chixian County. The people here don't care about this, and most of the neighbors and even themselves come from the same place.

Wu Qi squatted in front of the door, muttering a straw in his mouth, chewing constantly, as this simple peasant would do whenever he was nervous. Wu Ma Xin's mother pushed away the crowd and walked in, took the child from the hand of the golden robe, and looked at it from the top to the bottom, and liked it very much. She has always wanted to have children, and she drinks all kinds of herbs like water every day, but God just refuses to reward them.

"This kid is not from Chixian Shenzhou. Wu Qi said with a difficult face.

"I don't care, this kid is destined for me at first glance. Wu Maxin's mother refused to let go, looking like she had to do it.

"Okay. Wu Qi stood up, patted the soil on his body and asked, "Has the child got a name?"

"It's up, it's called Wu Ma Heart. ”

Wu Qi nodded: "Okay, it's good, I have the same surname." ”

The baby in Wu Ma Xin's mother's arms suddenly looked at Wu Ma Xin and grinned.

Look, he smiled. Wu Maxin's mother said happily, her whole face smiling like a peony, as if she had the whole world.

With tears in his eyes, Wu Ma withdrew from the courtyard, unable to bear to disturb this happiness, and because he knew that this happiness would soon be gone. Mu Yangzhe and Shen Tu Yuheng passed by Wu Ma Xin, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged to the side, but the two were unaware and continued to talk while walking.

Mu Yangzhe said: "Brother Shentu, which of our various clans is superior to the martial arts classics, heavenly and earthly treasures, and capable people, isn't it better to cultivate there to improve their abilities, why do you have to select a baby to send to this poor and remote place?"

"This was Brother Wuma's idea. Shentu Yuheng said, "Our children and grandchildren of all ethnic groups, martial arts cultivation may be superior, but the place where we live is too narrow, the vision is not big enough, the pattern is not wide enough, and the pampered and pampered, spoiled, do not know the suffering of the world, how arrogant and arrogant, arrogant and lascivious, only the interests of the family and race in the heart, it is difficult to have a country and the world." ”

"Could it be that Brother Wu Ma doesn't have confidence in himself?" asked Mu Yangzhe.

"Perhaps. Shentu Yuheng said, "Maybe he wants to try another way to save Duanguo." ”

"Blood debts can only be paid in blood, how can there be other ways?"

Shentu Yuheng shook his head and sighed in his mouth: "This is the last thing I will do for the Runxia clan, and after today, I will be my free and scattered immortal." ”

"Brother Shentu ......"

Shen Tu Yuheng stretched out his hand to interrupt him and walked away laughing.

"Cut!" Mu Yangzhe snorted, his eyes full of disdain as he looked at Qiaodong Village.

These outsiders came and went in a hurry, and the village of Qiaodong soon returned to calm.

Wu Ma remembered that the clothes washed by his mother were still by the river, so he hurriedly took a wooden basin and a wooden mallet and quietly put them outside the courtyard gate. The house was full of laughter and laughter, and it was not until it was dark that Wu Maxin's mother remembered the clothes and hurried out. As soon as she got out of the yard, she was stunned, could it be that the wooden basin came back by itself? Until she entered the house, she still couldn't figure it out, and said in a loud voice: "His father, you say it's not strange, the wooden basin came back by itself, why did it still recognize the way." ”

"There's nothing so wicked. Wu Qi said, "Maybe some villager helped bring it back, I think you are confused, how can you have a wooden basin with long feet." ”

"The people by the river have come back to see the excitement, how can anyone care about this. Wu Ma Xin's mother looked pious, "You say, could it be a fairy?"

"Well, it's a god, it's a god. Wu Qi replied, "Let's cook, I'm hungry." ”

"Okay!"

Wu Ma smelled the smell of rice in the air and walked towards the window, wanting to take a few more glances at this happy family. As soon as he took a step, the already dark sky suddenly brightened, and a two-year-old child pushed open the door and ran towards him with open hands. Wu Ma Xin hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but the child passed through his body and ran over. Wu Ma Xin hurriedly turned around, the child had already jumped into Wu Qi's arms, and said in a milky voice: "Dad, you are back." ”

"Well, well, look what Daddy brought you. Wu Qi asked the child to sit on his lap and reached out to pluck the bamboo basket behind him.

"Wow, sparrow. "The child got excited and kept playing. After playing for a while, the child got a little tired, grabbed the sparrow's neck with both hands, and showed a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

"No, you can't. Wu Qi knocked his hand off, and taught him a lesson, "Don't hurt life." ”

The child said with a face full of grievances: "It's just a bird, not a human, what kind of life is it." ”

"You're wrong. Wu Qi said solemnly, "Whether it is flowers, insects, birds or beasts, they are all life, and we must be in awe of life, and we must not harm them at will." ”

"Oh. The child muttered as if he didn't understand.

The second bald uncle of the neighbor walked in, carrying a fish in his hand, and said loudly: "Wu Qi, this is what I just hit, and it's still alive, let my sister-in-law stew." ”

The child jumped off his lap and pointed at him and shouted, "You can't kill!" Then the child pointed at his mother and said, "Rice is alive, and you can't kill the cook." ”

The bald second uncle was stunned, his face was slightly red, and he didn't know what to say.

"Heart. Wu Qi hurriedly pulled the child over and said seriously: "This is different, we are also life, and we also need to survive." It is not a sin to kill animals and grains for the sake of food, but it is a big mistake to kill for your own selfishness, desires, or even for fun, as you just did. ”

"Oh, oh. The child nodded ignorantly.

"Wu Qi, I really convinced you, and I am so patient with the child. The bald second uncle pointed at him.

Wu Qi smiled: "Where, parents are not all the same in the world. Xin'er, don't apologize to the second uncle soon, thank the second uncle for the fish. ”

The child said immaturely: "I was wrong just now, thank you for the second uncle's fish." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you eat slowly. The bald second uncle touched his head and laughed and walked out of the courtyard gate, "This kid will have a future when he grows up." ”

Wu Qi sat the child on his lap again, and said earnestly: "Xin'er, I don't need you to be rich and rich in the future, I just hope you can be an upright and kind person." ”

"Hmm. The child nodded earnestly.

"Stop playing, wash your hands and eat. Wu Ma Xin's mother exclaimed with a smile.

"Okay, there's fish to eat. The child jumped and ran to the basin.

Wu Ma Xin's mother said angrily: "The child is still so young, why are you talking to him about this?"

"Well, I'm just afraid I don't have much time left to educate him. Wu Qi said, his eyes a little lonely.

Wu Ma was worried, and took a few steps forward, wanting to ask clearly, but the scene around him changed instantly, no longer in front of his house, but in the field east of the village, where five children were chasing and playing, and they were having fun.

The eldest child pointed to the hornet's nest in the tree and said, "These wasps are always stinging, let's punish them." ”

Wang Ziqing! Wu Ma said secretly in his heart.

"Good. The four children shouted in unison.

"That's so high, who can get it?"

"I ...... I'm coming!" one of the thinnest and tallest children cried out and fetched a bamboo pole. He was not much thicker than a bamboo pole, and the way he held it was very funny.

Lou Yiming!

The tall and thin child jumped high and stabbed the hornet's nest down. The hornets were woken up from their sleep, annoyed, and flew like black smoke towards the children.

"Mom!" the tall and thin child shouted, throwing down the bamboo pole and running.

The eldest child stood behind him, and with a flick of his fingers, a fire suddenly grew in his hand. A few other children lit a twig and slapped it at the wasp. Countless charred corpses fell, the air filled the air with the smell of barbecue, the black mist gradually dissipated, and several children won the war, dancing with excitement, although they were also stung and swollen. Wu Ma's heart also became happy. A few children ran home like a gust of wind to tell the family the good news, although they might not expect that what awaited them was not a reward, but a fat beating.

The youngest child stumbled and almost fell, Wu Ma Xin hurriedly stepped forward to help, and when he took a step, the surroundings changed again, and he returned to his own courtyard. The courtyard is not big, and it is even more crowded at the moment, the inside and outside are full of Fu soldiers and people in various clothes, the person in the golden robe is here again, and the person in the red robe with the golden thread bird pattern is also there, as well as Mu Yangzhe, Kao Junjie, Ye Zhangyu, Zhisun Xiumei, Yu Pigeon, and many people he doesn't know, with different costumes and extraordinary appearances.

Wu Qi frowned and was at a loss, and the child hid behind him and didn't dare to make a sound.
