12. About identity

At the foot of the stream and mountain, the grass is grown.

Because of autumn, these weeds have withered and withered, and have lost their original vitality.

From a distance, it feels desolate.

Among the wild grass, a mound more than one person high is so conspicuous.

If it weren't for the two empty wine bottles in front of the mound and some traces of incense ash, it would be hard to find that this is a tomb.

"You said you liked roses the most, and I brought them to you today!"

Coming to the grave, Luo Fan slowly squatted down and put the bright red roses in his hand on the ground, his deep eyes flashing with endless lovesickness and pain.

After eighteen years of separation, meeting again is an eternal separation.

That kind and beautiful face can only exist in the heart.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been clamoring to go to school and wear new clothes, you wouldn't have gone to work for me, let alone met people from the five great families! ”

"Mom, don't worry, I'm living a good life now, I swear, I will make everyone who hurt you pay!"

Luo Fan clenched his fists, and the face full of maternal love appeared in his mind: "Little brat, remember one thing, now I raise you young, and you have to raise me when I grow up." Your mother is just one of your relatives, and if you don't protect me, then I will be very sad and sad. ”

"Mom, don't worry, when I grow up, I will protect you, make a lot of money for you to spend, and dress you up beautifully. ”

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm not pretty right now?"

"It's beautiful now, but there's still room for improvement. ”

The scenes of the past are vivid, which makes the boy's nose sour, and he feels like he wants to cry.

"Who are you?"

At this moment, a slightly hoarse voice sounded, and an old man with a rickety figure and a white beard walked in the distance on crutches.

Seeing Luo Fan raise his head, the old man's pupils trembled fiercely: "Like, too similar, are you that woman's child?

"Old man, have you seen my mother?" Luo Fan stood up.

The old man sighed: "Back then, your mother was left at the foot of the stream and mountain, and her life was hanging by a thread, I thought about sending her to the hospital, but in the end I couldn't save her." After that, I ordered the people in the village to bury her. It's a pity that the old man is getting older, and the number of times in the mountains has become less and less over the years, except for burning incense sticks and paper money for your mother during Qingming, he has no ability to help her remove the weeds on the grave!"

"The grace of burying my mother is greater than the sky, and I invite you to worship the younger generations!"

Luo Fan knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times to the old man.

Although he didn't know each other, he was qualified to bear Luo Fan's knees.

The old man said repeatedly: "You get up quickly, if you are any person, you will not stand idly by when you encounter this kind of thing." Actually, I've been waiting for you all these years, because your mother said on her deathbed that you would definitely find her. ”

Luo Fan frowned slightly: "Wait for me?"

"Come with me!" the old man turned and walked towards the village in the distance.

"Mom, wait for your son to come to see you another day, you can be wronged for a few days!" Luo Fan whispered, and then followed the old man to the village.

This village is called Xishan Village, and there are only fifty or sixty households, and because of its remoteness, it looks very poor. And most of them are some left-behind elderly people and children.

"This is what your mother gave me before she died, she said, if you can find this place, I will return this jade pendant to you, after waiting for you for so many years, I finally waited for you. The old man found a black wooden box in the adobe house, and inside was an antique jade pendant, on which was carved a phoenix.

"Thank you, old man, for keeping this thing all the time!" Luo Fan reached out and took the jade pendant, he clearly remembered that this was his mother's most beloved item, and he always wore it on his body.

"Actually, I should thank you, if you don't show up, I'm afraid I won't be able to fulfill your mother's last words!" the old man smiled slightly, the wrinkles on his face piled up, giving people a feeling of old age.

"Did my mother say anything else?" Luo Fan cautiously put away the jade pendant.

The old man said, "Yes! Your mother once said that you should not avenge her, because the enemy is too strong, and you alone cannot be their opponent, and this will only harm you." She also said that if you want to find relatives, then go to Kyoto. ”

"Kyoto?"

Luo Fan muttered that as a child he was often ridiculed by his peers for being a fatherless child.

And he has asked his mother more than once about his father's whereabouts, but his mother has always kept silent about it, and now although he knows his father's whereabouts, he didn't expect that the other party is from Kyoto.

"Old man, this is my mobile phone number, if you need anything in the future, just call this number. Luo Fan took out a business card and handed it to the old man, then turned and walked outside.

Rolls-Royce above.

Luo Fan stared at the jade pendant in his hand, and said softly: "Liuli, contact the government and transform Xishan Village in my name, which can be regarded as repaying the kindness of the people of Xishan Village for saving and burying my mother eighteen years ago!"

Liuli said respectfully: "When I go back, I'll contact the people of the government." ”

"Yes. ”

Liuli glanced at the jade pendant in Luo Fan's hand: "Young master, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Luo Fan glanced at her: "You want to talk about my background?"

Liuli said: "I can only see my subordinates, this phoenix pendant is definitely not something that ordinary people can have, if I am not mistaken, it should be carved from a whole piece of spirit stone." Although the spirit stone is now very ordinary, there is one thing that is not difficult to deny. Twenty-three years ago, the earth was going through the era of the end of the law, that is, not only the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was thin, but the people who could possess spirit stones were extremely rare, let alone carving a phoenix pendant with spirit stones. ”

"Elder Zhou also said before that your father is from Kyoto, and it just so happens that there is a Luo clan --- god clan in Kyoto, and you are most likely the queen of the god clan!" said this, a solemnity flashed in his eyes.

There are thirteen Protoss in the Yan Kingdom, each of which has terrifying energy and heritage, and even she didn't expect Luo Fan to be the queen of the Protoss.

When you think about it, it's a relief.

If it weren't for the Protoss, would he be able to have his current cultivation in just eighteen years, would he be able to have his current merits?

Eighteen years may seem short, but in the eyes of practitioners, it is just a dream, and some people may be in retreat for decades at a time.

"Protoss?" There was a trace of disdain in the young man's eyes: "The so-called Protoss is just the first garbage to shrink his head when the catastrophe is coming, that's all! I don't despise having the blood of the Protoss, this will be a shame for my life!"
