"It's on fire! Fight the fire! ……”

"Daddy! …… Mother! ……”

"Don't kill me, don't kill me...... Yes! ”

…………

The scorching stench caused by the incineration, mixed with the disgusting smell of blood, spread within a radius of several miles, and the huge Tang family's mansion was swallowed by tongues of fire overnight. The flames were shining in the sky, and the open door was like a giant mouth that eats people.

A woman with a child in her arms runs desperately through the fire.

"Ahem, ahem, ......"

The smoke poured into the nasal cavity, the feeling of coma and suffocation became more and more obvious, and the woman had to fall several times, but she always protected the child in her arms, covered his mouth and nose with a wet silk cloth, hugged him, and ran away frantically.

When she ran to the corner of the yard, the woman suddenly knelt down, cried and shouted, and kowtowed like crazy: "Where are you? I know you're here! I beg you to save my child! Take him away! Take him away! ”

"Mother...... Who are you talking to...... Speak? Why ...... On fire? For...... Why doesn't my brother ...... Come and save me? ”

The child was stunned, and asked in a daze, sobbing as he spoke.

"Have you figured it out?" A figure emerged from behind the rockery, dressed in an embroidered light blue cheongsam dress, and her face was not clear between the light and shadow of the fire.

The woman raised her head suddenly, her forehead had already been broken, and blood was splashing, but she crawled over, continued to kowtow in pain, and cried: "Take your life or your soul!" You save my child! Su Xuan! I beg you to save my child! ……”

Su Xuan hurriedly helped the woman up, her eyes were obviously full of sadness, but her voice sounded cold: "Okay, don't knock again, I promise you." ”

The fire continued to spread, and the entire Tang Mansion was full of corpses, and dozens of people died like this.

"If there's anything you want to say, let's say it all together."

The woman pulled the child again, caressed the child's face, hugged deeply, and tears couldn't stop falling: "Ning'er...... Ning'er...... Listen to your mother, forget who you are, get out of here, don't come back, live well......! ”

"Mother?"

"Let's go!" As soon as she pushed the child away, the woman turned around and threw herself into the sea of fire, "Live...... Live well! Ahhh ”

"Mother!"

The white light swam out of the firelight and fell into Su Xuan's palm.

"Mother! Mother! ……”

The most painful thing in this world is to see the person you love the most die in front of you, but you can't do anything about it.

Su Xuan stunned the child with a palm, picked him up, and disappeared into the darkness in the corner of the courtyard.

Taking people's souls, fulfilling people's wishes, this child will have nothing to do with the Tang family in the future, Su Xuan named him Li Tang, which is intended to fulfill his mother's wish, don't take revenge, live well.

And she is the shopkeeper of the soul pawnshop - Su Xuan.

Ten years later.

"Sister Su Xuan! Li Tang plays hooligan! Punish him! ”

The predecessor of the soul pawnshop is the old house of a certain merchant in the previous dynasty, the carved wooden door enters, bypasses a hand-copying verandah, it is the courtyard, a huge locust tree is planted in the courtyard, every summer, it can always produce a string of white locust flowers, the green brick pavement, there are different shapes of hanging flower doors.

The house has been around for quite some years, but it is still very good.

Su Xuan sat under the tree, and saw a noisy figure from afar.

"Punish him! Punish him! ”

The name of the person who spoke was Mo Nianning, and he was also a child who was taken in by Su Xuan, wearing a lotus pink jacket skirt, two pigtails, and a woman's dress in his hand, his face was flushed because he had run all the way, and he looked at Li Tang later, covering his mouth and snickering.

"Sister Su Xuan." Li Tang came over, first said hello to Su Xuan, and then looked at Xiao A-Ning with some annoyance.

"What's going on?"

Mo Nianning handed over the clothes in her hand: "Sister Su Xuan, look, this is the clothes of the woman's family, and Li Tang actually hid it in his own house." ”

Unfolded, it is a red embroidered robe, which is indeed a woman's costume, but strictly speaking, it should be a costume.

Su Xuan folded the clothes again and poked Mo Nianning's forehead: "You, I asked Li Tang to learn opera, it's good for you to take out all his costumes." ”

Like them, when they go out, they always have to hide their identities a little, and a place like Xiyuanzi, which is a mixture of three religions and nine streams, should be a good choice to hide, let Li Tang learn some skills first, and if he needs it in the future, he will not be too embarrassed.

Mo Nianning rubbed her forehead, watched Su Xuan put the costume back into Li Tang's hand, turned around and entered the house, and the remaining two people looked at each other in the courtyard.

"What are you laughing at?"

Li Tang suddenly leaned closer to her and stared into her eyes: "Laugh at your stupidity." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll beat you?" Mo Nianning raised his fist and warned as he stared at his eyes.

Li Tang secretly said in his heart, are you afraid it will be useful? If it was useful, he would still be chased and beaten by Mo Nianning since he was a child? Speaking of which, after all, he is a few years older than Mo Nianning, so naturally he can't bully the small with the big, not to mention that the other party is still a woman.

Almost as quickly as possible, Li Tang's lips lightly touched her cheek, and before she could come back to her senses, she ran away so quickly that she didn't have time to admire her blushing face.

"Ahh Li Tang !! ”

Since they all say that he is a hooligan, if he doesn't do something, won't he lose money?

In the house, Su Xuan looked at the two people who were fighting a little distracted through the window.

"Ah Ning and Li Tang are a good match."

Hearing the voice, Su Xuan seemed to wake up from a dream, startled for a moment, and then turned around and saw an elegant man, wearing a light-colored robe, with a smile between his eyebrows: "Yes." ”

"You and I are just as compatible."

Su Xuan didn't speak, just looked at the visitor silently.

His name is Du Sheng, he was originally a rich child, but for her, he stayed in such a place, he knew who she was, and he knew what she was doing, but he didn't care.

Du Sheng is in love, but Su Xuan is the person.

"After a while, I want to give Li Tang and A Ning's marriage."

"In such a hurry?" Du Sheng walked over, leaned against the window and looked at the two noisy figures outside, "In two years." ”

I thought it was just a whim, and said it casually, but Su Xuan unexpectedly insisted: "Settle the marriage first, and then make up the wedding after two years." ”

Su Xuan's insistence always gave Du Sheng a sense of foreboding, so she was leaving, and before leaving, she did everything that needed to be done.

This premonition lasted until three days later, and it really came true - on the night that the marriage was decided, Su Xuan collapsed in a pool of blood, with an ancient sword stuck in her chest, and standing opposite her was the cold-faced Yama-like Li Tang......
