When leaving the border of Qizhou, Sanniang's bantam was stolen.

She stood dumbfounded at the gate of the city for a while, and a lady's carriage passed by, and when she saw that she was pitiful, he asked her where she was going, and it happened that the lady was also going to the northland, so she gave her a ride.

This lady's name is Shen Qiaosu, she is very beautiful, gentle and gentle. She has a four-year-old son, the little guy is as pink as a glutinous rice dumpling, and Sanniang wants to take a bite every time she sees it to see if it tastes good.

"These are for my aunt."

The little guy may have also seen that Sanniang, the strange aunt, wanted to bite him and taste it, so he took the initiative to take out all his snacks, and gave them all to her reluctantly.

"Thank you, Xuanxuan." Sanniang was very unceremoniously packed into her own small cloth bag, and she didn't leave any of them, seeing that the little guy looked at his mother aggrievedly.

didn't leave a little for Xuanxuan.

Shen Qiaosu has never seen such a cute and simple girl, thinking of such a simple girl going to the north alone, does her family know? If he was abducted, he asked tentatively: "Why did Sanniang go to the north?" ”

"Go find my husband." Sanniang likes this mother and son, and she has no defense.

Shen Qiaosu was startled, seeing that she had a petite face and was dressed like a girl who had not left the pavilion, she also guessed whether she was going to find her father, but she didn't expect that it was the same as her, to find her beloved.

What a lovely and brave girl.

Shen Qiaosu was about to say something, but the carriage suddenly stumbled and smashed them on the wooden planks of the carriage. She hugged her son tightly, gently lifted the corner of the curtain of the carriage, and saw a group of black-clad men standing outside, all holding bows and arrows, with cold eyes, and the coachman who was driving the carriage had been shot under the horse's hooves with an arrow.

"The master commanded, those who were caught alive were seriously injured."

Shen Qiaosu's face changed suddenly, knowing that it was for their mother and son, she looked at her son nervously, and then looked at Sanniang guiltily, which affected her. As if she had made a lot of determination, she put her son in Sanniang's arms and whispered, "Get down and hold on to the carriage." With that, she lifted the curtain and walked out.

When the men in black saw her come out, they all stared at her coldly.

Shen Qiaosu didn't get out of the carriage, his eyes swept over the coachman under the hooves of the tragically dead horse, and coldly glanced at the black-clothed man surrounding the carriage. Suddenly, he pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, stabbed it on the horse's ass quickly and fiercely, and then hurriedly grabbed the reins of the chariot and shouted "drive".

The horse was in pain, jumped up and tore its front hooves, and frantically pulled the carriage and rushed to the man in black in front of him. The black-clothed man at the front didn't have time to dodge, and was directly stepped under the horse's hooves, ** split, and the rest of the panic hurriedly dodged to both sides.

The man in black who took the lead was annoyed and shouted: "Release the arrows!" ”

For a while, more than a dozen sharp arrows shot at the carriage in unison, Shen Qiaosu's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and grabbed the reins.

Looking at the vanishing carriage, the man in black who took the lead had a bad face on his face, and said fiercely: "Can't let them run away, chase me." ”

The carriage ran wildly for an unknown amount of time, and finally stopped at a three-way intersection, and Shen Qiaosu, who had an arrow in his vest, couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground with a 'bang'.

"Sister Qiaosu." Sanniang saw it and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage with the little guy in her arms.

Shen Qiaosu's pale blue clothes had been infected with blood, and Sanniang helped her up to lean on herself, and when she raised her hand, her palm was already crimson.

The arrow pierced directly from her back to her chest.

Such a gentle woman, along the way, actually endured without saying a word.

"Mother, mother, don't scare Xuanxuan." The little guy knelt beside his mother, and his little face was full of tears.

The arrow pierced through the back of the heart, Shen Qiaosu could feel that he couldn't survive, he looked at his young son sadly, held Sanniang's hand tightly, and begged in a trembling voice: "Help me...... Help me ......" Before he could finish his sentence, a large mouthful of blood poured out of his mouth.

"What can I help you? You say slowly, I, I will take care of Xuanxuan, I ......" The piercing blood stung Sanniang's nerves, and more forgotten pictures gradually became clearer, and her eyes were no longer so stupid.

"Sister......

Tears rolled down uncontrollably, and Sanniang seemed to see her sister when she died. The endless blood of the berth was stained white and red.

Shen Qiaosu looked at her gratefully, and with difficulty took out a piece of half moon from her arms, tears slid down her cheeks, and she no longer had the strength to speak, "Find ......"

"Looking for whom?"

"Looking for ......" was not finished, and before the words were finished, her arm fell weakly, and she finally closed her eyes with regret.

"-Mother-in-law"

She's dead.

This woman, who had a gentle eyebrow, finally left with a full regret.

The bright red blood, the young child was crying sadly, which stimulated Sanniang's head with a huge pain, she wanted to cry, but her voice was so choked that she couldn't make a sound. Knowing that this place was not suitable for a long time, he had to look at the horses with their heads down and gnawing at the grass, and then at the three forks in the road, and got up and slapped the horses on the buttocks, and the horses dragged the carriage to one of them.

"Xuanxuan, you are a good child, obedient, follow me."

She knew it was cruel not to comfort a child who had lost her mother at the moment, but she couldn't care so much more than die here. Sanniang gritted her teeth and carried Shen Qiaosu's body on her back, didn't take any way, and took the little guy into the woods on the side.

As soon as he took two steps, he hurriedly kicked some dead leaves to cover the bloody footprints.

The little guy was taught very well by Shen Qiaosu, although he was very sad to lose his mother, but he was a smart and strong child, and his little hand tightly pulled the corner of Sanniang's clothes to help cover the dead leaves.

Less than a quarter of an hour after the two left, the group of black-clothed men chased after them, looking at the pile of blood stains in the center of the fork in the road, their brows furrowed, and they said coldly: "The soldiers are divided into three ways, chase!" ”

Sanniang took the little guy to find a small cave in the forest, and after making sure that there were no wild beasts in it, she put Shen Qiaosu's body on the big stone inside. With the four claws of her and the little one, it is impossible to dig a pit and bury her well, let alone carry the body on her back all the time, so she can only be buried here first, and he will come to collect her bones again in the future.

Sister Qiaosu, don't worry, I will take care of Xuanxuan.

"Xuanxuan, I don't have a good memory, you have to remember here, and we will come back to collect the bones of your mother and take her home in the future." Sanniang laboriously brought stones and blocked them at the entrance of the cave little by little.

"Xuanxuan remembered."

The little guy looked deeply at his mother for the last time with red eyes, as if he wanted to engrave the last appearance of his biological mother into his mind. After nodding firmly, the sensible kowtowed three times at the entrance of the cave, choking: "Mother, Xuanxuan will definitely come back to pick you up, you wait for Xuanxuan." ”

He'll definitely come back to pick up his mother.

After blocking the entrance to the cave, Sanniang took some dry soil and dead branches and leaves to cover it, and after making sure that she couldn't see that the steep slope was a shallow cave, she found a stout tree around and smashed a mark at the root of the tree with a stone. In this way, even if she and the little one forget it, as long as they can find this mark, they will definitely find a place.

"Let's go, let's go to the north." She took the little one's hand.

"Auntie, Xuanxuan doesn't have a mother anymore."

"No, Xuanxuan still has me, I will take good care of Xuanxuan for your mother." If these words were put a few months ago, Sanniang was afraid that she would not even be able to take care of herself, so how could she take care of others? Fortunately, she now remembers a lot of the past.

It was also at this moment that the little one began to cry bitterly.

Sanniang hugged him distressedly, and her heart was sour.

……

In the northern realm, a young woman with a gray cloth towel wrapped around her head and a coarse linen cloth on her body led a little girl with a gray head and a coarse cloth in linen clothes and two balls on her head, looking at the loess wall in front of her with disgust, and the three big characters of 'Huangsha City' that were almost covered by sand and dust.

"Mother, it's so poor here!"

"Don't talk nonsense, people call it desolation."

"Oh!" The girl nodded and said, "Mother, this place is so poor and desolate!" ”

“……”

I can't refute it, it's really poor and desolate.

A few passers-by gave the mother and daughter strange looks, as if they thought they were poorer and more desolate.

These two people are none other than Sanniang and the little guy.

A month ago, after the two left the woods, Sanniang found that those people were in a hurry to keep watch at the gates of each city, as long as it was a beautiful lady with a boy, those people would always take out a portrait to compare. The officers and soldiers at the city gate seemed to be afraid of them, and actively cooperated.

Sanniang took the little guy to hide by the stream, took a picture of the stream, and felt that she was quite beautiful and couldn't pass too blatantly. So I bought two coarse clothes with a passing peasant woman, tied two little girls' balls and buns for the little guy, grabbed a handful of grass and mud and wiped it on my face, a proper combination of country mother and daughter.

The journey went quite smoothly, and the little guy was very cooperative at the critical moment, so he changed his mouth and called her mother on the way, and he kept calling her like that after that.

Because of the good disguise, the journey was quite safe. It wasn't until I saw the gate of the northern border city that I was relieved.

Sanniang didn't know where Wei Ci was, but it was right to go to the garrison to find him.

After entering Huangsha City, Sanniang grabbed a thick sister and asked, "This sister, how to get to the barracks?" ”

"What are you looking for a barracks?" The eldest sister's tone was not good, she glanced at her vigilantly, and saw that she was a little woman with a child, and felt that it should not be a Qiang person, so her face became slightly kind.

"My husband joined the army in the north, and I brought my children to see him."

"Your husband is a soldier of the Northlands?"

"Yes." Sanniang nodded.

Hearing this, the eldest sister's gaze at her instantly became amiable.

"Girl, it's been hard all the way. Wait, I'll buy some thread balls, and I'll take you there in a while, alas, what's your husband's name? Maybe I know my man. ”

Uh, why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?

“…… His name is Wei Dalang. "Sanniang is not stupid now, of course she can't tell the truth casually.
