Chapter 12: Background

Walking quickly to the front of the village, Li Anyue was stunned, the village in front of him was no longer the quiet and peaceful village in his memory, but instead the flames were crackling and devouring the houses, Li Anyue came back to his senses and wanted to rush home, but was blocked by the fire and couldn't move.

What's going on? Why is this happening? I'm not coming back a little late, are you going to punish me with this, God? Large tears flowed from her eyes, and as soon as they touched the ground, they formed ice beads, rolling one by one.

"Mother? Mother, where are you? Mother! Mother...... I'm going to find you......" Li Anyue shouted anxiously and was about to rush into the fire, but was stopped by someone.

"Yue'er, Yue'er! Don't do anything stupid! It turned out that Lin Yuanqing saw that there was a heavy snowfall, and he was not at ease and looked for Li Anyue at the urging of Jin Susu, but he found the abnormality of the village like Li Anyue, and when he rushed over, he happened to see Li Anyue running into the fire, and quickly stopped her.

"Master......" Li Anyue collapsed on the ground as soon as she saw him, sobbing and speechless, "Woo, Master...... Mother, mother is gone...... The village is gone...... Master...... Mother...... Mother......"

Li Anyue cried and cried, and felt that her eyes were black and she fell. I vaguely saw the figure of my mother in the flames, and my mother's call also clearly echoed in my ears.

"Yue'er, Yue'er, come and see, this is the new clothes that my mother made for you, is it good-looking?"

"Mother's Yue'er is already a beautiful big girl!"

"Yue'er, today is your birthday, and my mother made you your favorite braised eggplant."

"Yue'er, in the future, if your mother is gone, you have to protect yourself."

"Yue'er...... Yue'er ...... Yue'er ......"

Mother, don't go, Yue'er can't see you! Mother, where are you, Yue'er can't hear your voice! Mother, don't go near the fire, it's very dangerous there! Mother! Mother!

"Mother!" Li Anyue reached out to grab her mother, and suddenly struggled to sit up, only to find that she was staying in the room of the master and the mother, and the master and the mother were looking at her worriedly.

Looks like I'm having a nightmare.

"Master, Master, Yue'er just had a terrible nightmare, dreaming that Peach Blossom Village was burned down, and her mother was gone...... I'd better go back and have a look. Li Anyue remembered that dream, and suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, so she wanted to go back quickly.

"Yue'er, Yue'er!" Seeing her like this, Jin Susu hurriedly pressed her back to the bed, "Yue'er, you just fainted, it's not appropriate to get up now, it's better to lie down on the bed." ”

"Fainted? How could I faint? Li Anyue smiled, looked at the master and the mother, and found that their faces were heavy, and that scene appeared in front of him again.

"Master, that's not a dream...... Yes and no? Li Anyue finished her words tremblingly and with difficulty, and looked at the master with teary eyes, the master seemed to be there just now, then this is not a dream, the peach blossom village is really gone, and the mother is really gone......

"Yue'er, don't be excited, lie down and take care of your body first." Lin Yuanqing was also flustered when he saw Li Anyue like this.

"Master...... Master, don't lie to Yue'er, isn't it true, mother, they're gone, aren't they? Li Anyue pulled Lin Yuanqing anxiously.

"How so? Master, how can this be? Li Anyue saw Lin Yuanqing bowing his head and not speaking, which confirmed what he thought in his heart, but it was the most unacceptable result.

"Oh, no! I want to go back to save my mother, my mother is still in the fire, it's very dangerous! Li Anyue said that she was about to run out again and was stopped by Jin Susu and Lin Yuanqing, "Don't stop me, my mother will die!" I...... I don't want ......."

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Jin Susu took out a silver needle and stabbed it at Li Anyue's Shentang acupoint, and Li Anyue fell asleep, so quiet as if nothing had happened, only the tears on his face still proved the heartbreak just now. Li Anyue seemed to have returned to Peach Blossom Village in a daze, but Peach Blossom Village had become a black ruin, Li Anyue tried to find the familiar house in the ruins, but she couldn't find it, she wanted to find her mother, but no one could see it, she searched and searched in the village, feeling so hot, as if she was being roasted by the flames. Occasionally opened his eyes, saw the worried face of the master, fell asleep again, and fell into that dream again.

"Water...... Water ......" As soon as Jin Susu entered the room, she heard Li Anyue's weak and hoarse voice on the bed, and understood that she wanted to drink water, so she quickly poured a glass of warm water and fed her to drink.

Li Anyue felt a burst of warmth, struggled to open and close her eyes, and slowly opened her eyes again after a while, and at this time, Jin Susu cried with joy and hurriedly called Lin Yuanqing.

"Yue'er, you're finally awake!" Lin Yuanqing rushed in when he heard the shout, and shouted happily when he saw Li Anyue's still pale face.

"Master, Master, how do I feel like I've slept for a long time?" Li Anyue rubbed her temples, her whole body was weak, and she seemed to have slept for a long time.

"That's not, you've been in a coma for two days all at once, and you have a high fever, I'm afraid we're in a hurry." Jin Susu saw that Li Anyue was about to get up, and hurriedly helped her up.

Li Anyue looked at the two gray-haired old men in front of him, and now, his relatives in this world were the only ones left, he barely swallowed his tears and took a deep breath, "Master, can you tell me what's going on in the village?" And my mother'......."

"Yue'er, don't get excited." Lin Yuanqing looked at Li Anyue's pale face and hurriedly comforted, "I went back to the village to check on the two days when you were unconscious, the village has become a ruin, all the houses have been burned, and the villagers have also died, and I have hastily buried them all before I came back." ”

"So, what about my mother?" Li Anyue asked anxiously.

"Your mother has not escaped the catastrophe, I have taken her back to the back mountain to be buried." Lin Yuanqing said slowly, worried that it would irritate Li Anyue again.

Sure enough, Li Anyue's tears dripped down her cheeks again, and her weak body kept trembling, which made people's hearts tug together, and her whole person became weaker in the past two days. After a while, Li Anyue wiped away her tears and said in a hoarse voice, "Master, I want to go and see my mother." ”

"Okay." Lin Yuanqing also choked up at this time and nodded, and brought the felt cloak to Li Anyue to put on.

Today's sky is clear, the sun shines on the snow is a little dazzling, and the group of three people arrived at a tombstone after a while, only to see that the tombstone is engraved with "The tomb of the loving mother Li Meifang, the female Li Anyue".

"Mother......" Li Anyue knelt down as soon as she saw the tombstone, but she couldn't say a word like a fish in her throat.

Jin Susu saw that Li Anyue knelt for a long time without saying a word, and couldn't help but worry that she was suffocating. "Yue'er, don't be too sad and hurt your body."

"Yue'er, I remember that your mother gave me a letter and a purse before, saying that if she had an accident, she would give them to you." Lin Yuanqing took out an envelope from his arms, which was secretly given to him by Li Meifang when he went to pick up Li Anyue a month ago.

At that time, he saw that she looked worried, but he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just a woman's momentary emotion.

"Brother Lin, I can see that you are not an ordinary person, but I can also see that you are not a bad person, and you are really good to Yue'er." At that time, after Li Meifang took Li Anyue away, she whispered to Lin Yuanqing, and was about to kneel down in front of him, "Brother Lin, I have a request, please agree to it." ”

"Huh? What are you doing here? It's good to have something to say, what to kneel on! Lin Yuanqing was taken aback by her sudden move and hurriedly helped her up.

"Brother Lin, the one I can't rest assured about in this world is Yue'er. If I have an accident one day, please give this letter to Yue'er, it is what I want to say but have not been able to say, and then please ask Brother Lin and Sister-in-law Lin to take good care of Yue'er. ”

At that time, Lin Yuanqing still complained that she was too worried, saying that she was older than her, and she was also herself who wanted to entrust the future. Unexpectedly, she seemed to have known that such a thing would happen, and made arrangements early.

Li Anyue wiped away her tears and took the envelope and purse in surprise. In the past, when she asked her mother to teach her to read, her mother kept saying that she was illiterate, how could she still have a letter. There was no word on the envelope, Li Anyue hurriedly took out the letter inside, and at the same time, a piece of paper fell out. Li Anyue picked up the piece of paper.

"Birthday? Is it mine? Li Anyue looked at the information on it and moved her gaze to the name column, "Mo Anyue?" ”

"Yue'er, you said that you don't have a father with your mother's surname, if this birthday is yours, does it mean that your father's surname is Mo?" Jin Susu took the birthday and asked.

Li Anyue nodded, and opened the letter again, the font on the letter was not very neat, but it could be read clearly.

"Yue'er:

I know that I must have been dead when you read this letter, and I know that this day is not far from when I write this letter. Originally, I planned to obey the general's orders and take your life experience to the grave, but it was already a great rebellion to let you follow my surname, and I don't want you to live such a life by mistake.

I am not your biological mother, your father is Mo Lansheng, the general of Tianyang Kingdom, and my mother is Xu Ruoyan, the daughter of the richest man in Tianyang Kingdom, and I am just a subordinate in the General's Mansion. I know that you may find it difficult to accept this result for a while, but it is true, your father told me not to tell you your background before he was killed, and hoped that you can grow up healthy and safe, but if I die suddenly and unexpectedly, it means that our whereabouts have been revealed, and those people will definitely not let you go, and if you don't know anything about your background, you may also be killed without knowing anything. The contents of the purse are your mother's relics, because they are too valuable, I have hidden it before, otherwise it may have been taken away by Su Yuan, and from now on you will carry it closely, and Madame hopes that it can keep you safe.

Yue'er, allow me to call you that one last time. I've always treated you as if you were my own daughter, and I want you to live in peace. Li Meifang's words
