Chapter 20(1)

Lian Yi didn't want to go to Yaoxu Hill for this matter, saying that he was used to living in Mufu and was unwilling to go back and forth, and when this remark came out, Ruan Yu had a big eye. Looking at Lian Yi's wishful look, Xin Ziling felt that insisting on taking him away was the right choice, and now the two of them have no fate. She looked at Lian Yi again, and felt that she would probably choke in the future.

Lian Yi was really quiet along the way, so that Xin Ziling was a little unaccustomed to being so noisy or noisy. It would be fine if he wasn't by his side, but a big living person who was so noisy on weekdays was now a little unaccustomed to being like a puppet.

Following Mu Dinghua was really the right choice, and soon arrived at Yaoxu Hill. A piece of land is covered with green grass, and many bushes fill the low-lying areas high, making the whole hill forest extraordinarily green and fresh, not at all like the scene of early spring.

"It's a nice place, it's beautiful. Xin Ziling sighed, and seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and silently looked up at Mu Dinghua.

"It's okay, tell me here, just don't say that kind of thing when you meet your grandmother. Mu Dinghua smiled, and the cautious boy patted her lightly on the shoulder: "It's okay." ”

She nodded, and to be honest, she was really nervous. If she is kicked out, it is not that she can't afford to lose this person, but her mother's last wish is for her to go back and recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. Although she already knows her identity, she still can't substitute herself for this role, as far as she is concerned, she doesn't have any special feelings for Huofeng, it sounds like she's just hearing someone else's story.

After walking for a while, the crowds gradually increased. Houses made of logs can be seen everywhere on the flat hills, and people are chatting outside, and from time to time a child or two runs past their feet, and the sound of giggling and slapping makes people feel like they are in a world away.

Mu Dinghua took Xin Ziling to the bottom of the street, and was noticed by the people who gathered around him to chat. Huofeng has been protected by the Red Dragon Clan, and the clan has been hiding from the world for many years, ignoring the outside world and living their lives with peace of mind, and the situation in front of them is like a happy and harmonious small village.

Most of the people here have experienced the pain of losing a loved one, but time really seems to dilute everything, whether deliberately or unintentionally, and those pains that pass away with the wind have been replaced by a peace in front of them. In fact, the old must always be replaced by the new, and the new will always make people forget the old.

Someone came over and saluted Mu Dinghua, and it seemed that they recognized him. Then the man looked at her again, and searched her face for a long time with a look of contemplation and scrutiny.

She naturally knew what this was for, her face looked seven points similar to her mother's mother, and there were many people here who had seen her mother's mother, and it was understandable that she was stunned when she suddenly saw someone so similar to Xin Yuyan.

Not long after, someone came over and invited Mu Dinghua to a certain place to gather. He nodded to her, and followed closely with the lost Lian Yi.

"This kid looks like a princess. One of the people on the side of the trail said.

"But the princess is not so young. The other man answered.

"Don't mention it, didn't the old monarch say don't mention the princess again, there is no princess in the clan. "There are more and more people gathered around.

"Oh! The old monarch's words were said in a fit of anger at that time, and they should not be taken seriously. ”

"Haven't you mentioned it in so many years?"

"I really didn't mention it. ”

"Hey...... You haven't had children, you don't understand. ”

Xin Ziling's appearance is the biggest thing that has happened in the Fire Phoenix Clan in the past tens of thousands of years, but everyone who is outside has passed on word of mouth one after another at this time, Xin Ziling and the others have not gone far, and various speculations about her have been passed back and forth in the small street.

This time, it was not as Xin Ziling expected. With Mu Dinghua's blessing, she easily saw Xin Zhihuanting, but the moment the old man saw her, she was stunned on the spot, she saw the old man's face showing joy, and when she was about to explain, she saw that the old man's face was sinking again, his brows were tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "This child?"

Mu Dinghua nodded: "Exactly." ”

“...... I've never heard of it, and it seems pitiful. ”

A slightly smaller wooden house was quiet, Xin Ziling thought that the next sentence might be the time to decide her to stay, as if it was a bit weird for her to cry and pounce on her relatives at this time, although she was not a little excited in her heart when she looked at her grandmother, but to admit her relatives, shouldn't she cry and hug and then everyone will be happy.

But the old man's face was not very good, and now she couldn't cry. After waiting for a while, the old man finally spoke: "Then thank you Muzun, there is a forest behind here, and you can see a 10,000-year-old tree through it, and the hollow of this tree has been made into a house." Once upon a time...... It is the residence of my son. ”

Mu Dinghua's expression was solemn: "Brother Xin, he ...... must have his own plans, Wan Tingjun should not be too worried. ”

"Go ahead. Xin Zhihuanting turned her head sideways, she waved her hand and gently leaned on the chair and closed her eyes, looking tired.

Xin Ziling retreated with Mu Dinghua, walked out of the gate two steps, and found that Lian Yi was still inside, so he turned back to find someone, but saw him prostrate on the ground with a sad face. The old man sitting in the hall was shocked back by him, and his face was stunned.

She finally uttered the first words she had said when she saw her grandmother, and the phrase "what a offense" seemed to embarrass her as if it had just come out of her mouth three days later. The first meeting with her grandmother was only a sentence of "how offended".

After this incident, she waited anxiously for the first day, and no one came to tell her to go to see Xin Lao, and no one came to look for her on the second day, and no one came to look for her on the third day. She began to hesitate a little, and stood at the mouth of the tree hole, wondering if she should go and say goodbye to her grandmother or something. Just as she couldn't make up her mind, a fruit that had been left to dry for the winter fell from the tree and smashed on her head.

In the cold and windy early spring, there are still people on the trees, "Lian Yi, how long have you been preparing for this!"

He jumped down from the tree with a melancholy on his face: "Lao Tzu has thought about it for a long time, and she feels that she is not ugly, she must dislike Lao Tzu's identity." ”

Xin Ziling rubbed her head, picked up the Yanguo on the ground and threw it to him: "How long are you going to do this?

He looked at her, and the look in his eyes was meaningful: "According to the experience of people who have come before, it will probably be more than half a year." ”

She gave him a blank look, feeling that her heart was like water, and she felt that it was rare that she didn't feel sad because of those three words: "Haven't you been for more than half a year?"

Lian Yi was shocked: "How can I fall out of love as soon as I go to Mufu!"

She raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you just fall out of love as soon as you went to Mufu!

Lian Yi really thought about it for a while, and said that he couldn't remember it at all: "Even if there was such a thing at the beginning, I worked hard, so this time is not calculated like this." ”

She frowned: "If you grow up a little yourself, maybe Ruan Yu will change her mind, so unproductive, I am a girl and I will not like you." ”

He exclaimed, "Ah, aren't you a girl?"

She was displeased: "When did I say I wasn't a girl?"

He reminded, "I just said it!"

The two of them stood under the tree and argued, Xin Ziling was a lot more relieved, she could quarrel with her like this, it seems that Lian Yi did not fall into the point of being unable to help herself. Watching him stubbornly correct himself, he finally returned to normal. However, it is indeed a little difficult for him to make a girl like Ruan Yu who follows the rules like him.

She shook her head in her heart, Lian Yi's first love was afraid that she would bend her waist like this. looked at the face that was gradually crimson with a little bright color, and couldn't help but raise his hand and pat him twice on the shoulder, as a wordless expression of regret in his heart for the hopeless future of him and Ruan Yu.

At last, she made up her mind to go to her grandmother, and if this continued, she would forget that she was a granddaughter. Moreover, she felt that the more she waited, the less confident she became, and everything was better when she was at the most energetic.

"Lian Yi, you stay here, I'll go find ...... My maternal grandmother. She shifted gears.

He was talking lively, and she jumped the topic so that he couldn't catch up. watched her walk towards the woods, and didn't react for a while. What did you just say? Didn't you just say that his clothes were too girly and not masculine enough? Why did he say that the peach pink color was too flattering to his appearance, but why did he say that it was not suitable for him to wear? Wasn't he talking about this problem? Isn't it? Lian Yi was a little messy, and stood in front of the tree hole and recalled what he had said before.

Not surprising this time, Xin Ziling didn't see Xin Lao, and stood among a few withered elm trees and knocked on the door for a while, but no one answered. She waited for a while, but she had no choice but to leave. Xin Ziling felt that it was actually very good that her grandmother didn't let her go in the first place, but if it were her, she might not have such a mind.

Everything was much easier to do at the beginning, and after this time, she came every day, and she didn't wait for Xin Lao to open the door for her every day. What she has is patience, patience that is ready for her mother. The old man can agree to her to live and have the heart to accept her, she has to give her some time, and her grandmother's heart must be very sad these days.

Another day, she stood in the cold wind and waited for a long time, until a thin layer of frost rose on the outside of the cotton cloak that was draped over her body. Fortunately, she is not afraid of cold, and she no longer feels like fire after Chi Zhenzhu leaves her body, but this is not afraid of cooling because of her fire phoenix physique.

She let out a long sigh and watched the white breath from her mouth dissipate in the cold air, turning around to leave. The door finally opened at this time, and the little boy who opened the door raised his childish head to look at her and smiled: "This sister, Wan Tingjun let you in." ”

She smiled and nodded, the days of waiting were finally over. She followed the little boy in, and with each step she took became more stressful, how could she tell the old man that her immature daughter had died trying to save her granddaughter......

The front yard was a little small, and she was already standing in the hall after only a dozen steps, feeling a lot of pressure in her heart, but she looked up at the old man sitting in the hall without fear. She didn't know how long it was, but she felt that it had been long enough, and when her palms were in a cold sweat, her grandmother finally spoke.

The first thing she asked was really about whether her mother was still in the Qing family, how was her life? She felt sour in her heart and didn't know how to answer. Xin Lao's second sentence asked why her mother didn't come back to Yaoxuqiu with her to see herself. This one, she knew how to answer, but she also thought about it for a long time before she spoke: "Mother feels that she has no face to come back to see you." ”

"Don't you have to go home if you don't have a face!" Xin Lao's voice trembled.

She hurriedly shook her hand: "No, she is afraid that you will not forgive her, and she is afraid that she will be angry with you." ”

"Is she afraid that I won't come back if I'm angry......" Xin Lao's voice was sad, and his lips trembled: "Is she doing well?"

She is not doing well, Xin Ziling said silently in her heart, it would be great if her mother could come back alive and hear these words with her own ears, if her mother knew that Xin Zhihuanting had already chosen to forgive, she would not be homeless, and she would not die in a foreign land......

Xin Ziling's tears flowed out, and she didn't know how to answer. "Your mother...... How is she doing?" Xin Zhihuanting clenched her fists, and a pair of phoenix eyes burst out with a dangerous light: "He dares to treat your mother badly!"

She bit her lip and said in her heart, "Father...... He is very good to his mother," Xin Zhihuanting breathed a sigh of relief, and the brilliance in her eyes softened a lot: "Don't leave again when you come back this time, let me be a ...... also do your best, and you will also do your filial piety. I'll ask Chizun to help me send a message so that your mother will come back when she has time. ”

Seeing that her full lip was bitten out of a deep white mark, she hesitated, "You don't want to?"

“...... No. She knew that sooner or later she would have to say that this matter could not be concealed: "Mother, she just wants to get your forgiveness, this is ...... Mother's last wish. ”

"You're ...... What do you say?" Xin Zhihuanting was not sure, her beautiful eyes were full of horror and doubt.

Xin Ziling closed her eyes, and her mind was full of red feathers flying in the sky: "Mother kisses her...... Passed away. ”

Xin Zhihuanting was stunned, she waited for more than 50,000 years but did not wait for her daughter to return to her homeland and return to her arms. How sad it was that she had waited so long for her daughter to be dead!

She put her trembling hands on her cold forehead: "When?
