Chapter XVII

Zhou Shi was also impressed when he said this, and continued: "In fact, she has always been a woman who knows what is important and knows right from wrong, and she knows better than anyone else that it is those Yuan soldiers who pierce Mu Yun's ten thousand arrows through her heart, and sometimes she says cold words to your father and Mingjiao just to vent the resentment in her heart. ”

As a woman, Zhou is more sympathetic and more understanding of Li Nanniang's pain of bereavement, and if this kind of thing happened to her, she might do something similar.

Wen Xuan looked back at the lonely Li Nanniang, and said sympathetically: "It's really embarrassing for the nurse......"

"It was also after that defeat that the Mingjiao gradually divided into two factions, each side held its own opinions, each went its own way, and the internal fighting continued, and the chaotic situation lasted for two years, until the situation improved after the Li sect leader took the throne."

Wen Xuan immediately became interested, and Zhengse asked, "Is there such a thing?" So what are the two factions divided on? ”

"On the one hand, there are conservatives who prefer to live in peace, and they want to passively wait for the birth of King Ming to bring light to the world and save them from their miserable lives; On the other hand, the radicals who are inclined to rise up are inclined to find the right time to take the initiative and overthrow the Yuan court in one fell swoop. ”

"Then my father must be on the side of the radicals?"

"Although your father agrees with taking the initiative, he also knows the importance of waiting for the right time, and is not on either side of them."

Wen Xuan agreed, it seems that the death of the two friends did have a great impact on his father, and at the same time, he felt more and more like a storm.

At the same time as the chaos in the east, even such a secret rudder was almost exposed, and it seems that something big must have happened in Mingjiao recently......

After the black-clothed sect leader and Wen Xianzhong quickly shook off everyone, they spoke: "What does Elder Wen think of Xu Nong?" ”

Wen Xianzhong, who was walking two stone steps behind the sect leader, replied calmly: "Wen doesn't dare to assert things that he is not sure of. ”

"It seems that Wen Lao still complains about what happened ten years ago."

"Wen doesn't dare."

"But it's okay, as the saying goes, 'don't forget the past, and teach the future', if we all act as cautiously as you do, there will be no danger of the undercurrent surging today."

"With the sect leader sitting in the mountains, those young people shouldn't be able to make any waves."

"When did even the Heavenly Privy Counsellor learn to flatter?" The black-clothed sect leader's tone of voice seemed to have changed suddenly, and his voice was different from before.

"You're not Sect Master Li! Who are you? ”

Wen Xianzhong's face was instantly filled with shock, he never thought that there were still people in this world who knew the identity of his Heavenly Privy Envoy, stretched out his fingers and pointed at the black-clothed man in front of him tremblingly, without a trace of calm.

The black-clothed sect leader didn't speak, turned around and took out a quaint token from his bosom, the flame pattern engraved on it was lifelike, as if it would jump out at any moment.

"Holy Flame Order!" Wen Xianzhong exclaimed in disbelief, and then asked with a sinking face, "Who are you?" Why do you want to pretend to be Sect Leader Li! ”

The black-clothed sect leader seemed to be very satisfied with Wen Xianzhong's reaction, and after chuckling, he slowly took off his face towel and black hat, revealing his true face, and his voice changed again.

"Wenbo, long time no see."

"Oh my God, it's you! You didn't even die? Wen Xianzhong's voice was not only surprised, but also with a hint of ecstasy.

"Thanks to your old Hongfu, didn't I stand here in a good manner?" The black-clothed sect leader's voice continued to change, this time crisp and sweet like a newly made copper bell.

Wen Xianzhong's complexion gradually relaxed, but infinite sorrow surged out of his heart again, and his dry lips trembled slightly: "Child, I've suffered you......"

……

By the time Wen Xuan and his party arrived at the top of the mountain, it was already time, and the old and weak women and children who had gone up the mountain with the Zhou family in advance had set up wooden tables and benches here early in the morning, and had prepared enough food to wait for them.

After experiencing such a major event in the village and then reuniting with their relatives, everyone naturally sighed inexplicably, and hugged their families one after another, sighing.

As for the women who did not wait for their husbands to go up the mountain, they hid in the corners and wept loudly, wailing and telling their children that they must remember that it was the vicious soldiers who brutally killed their fathers, and that several old people who had lost their sons were crying to death!

Wen Xuan had never seen the tragic scene of life and death parting between relatives in the past, so that the corners of his eyes moistened, and he hurriedly tilted his head to the side, unable to bear to look at this sad scene.

Zhou sighed bitterly, silently wept, she had seen too many such scenes in her life, Wen Xuan hurriedly came over to comfort her mother, Zhou barely squeezed out a smile with tears, pointed to the bench next to him and said to Wen Xuan: "Xuan'er, sit down and eat something." ”

Wen Xuan nodded silently, and after taking a few bites, he set his eyes on the iron bull tied to the corner by the rope, thinking about how to save him.

Although the people of Mingjiao are vegetarians, the current fasting is very exquisite, and the villagers who have spent a lot of physical energy climbing the mountain immediately devoured it after sitting down.

When everyone was about to finish eating, Wen Xianzhong, who had followed the sect leader up the mountain first, stepped back on his feet, and several sect members who followed behind him silently carried the injured Xu Nong in under his guidance.

Wen Xianzhong first took turns to comfort the family of the deceased, and then raised his voice and said to everyone: "You and your families have settled on the mountain for the time being, and after I have discussed with the sect leader, I will find a place to rebuild the village." ”

"We all listen to Wen Bo and the sect leader!"

"Yes, just have a place to live!"

First of all, they were personally welcomed by the sect leader, and then there was a new place to settle, and the villagers naturally obeyed Wen Xianzhong's arrangement.

After arranging everything, Wen Xianzhong sat on the bench with a tired face, glanced at the iron ox sitting on the ground in the distance, and said to Wen Xuan: "Go and send some food to Tie Niu, he has a lot of food, fill him with more vegetable cakes." ”

"Okay." Wen Xuan was worried that he didn't have a chance to apologize to Tie Niu, so he agreed very happily.

Tie Niu, who was sitting still, heard footsteps coming towards him, and immediately raised his head, but when he saw that it was Wen Xuan who was carrying a bamboo basket to his side, he immediately tilted his head over.

"Hungry, aren't you? Come, eat something. Wen Xuan walked over and asked with a smile.

Tie Niu lowered his head and snorted, ignoring him.

Wen Xuan said with a bitter face: "Are you still sulking?" Don't blame me, I have lost my soul and I can't remember a lot of things. ”

"What? Do you have Soul Loss? How? After all, they are playmates who have grown up together since childhood, and Tie Niu is just sulking, hearing him say that he has lost his soul, he hurriedly turned around and asked nervously.

Wen Xuan's heart warmed, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe it was smashed by my father with a stone inkstone, right?" I have almost forgotten everything in the past, but my body is fine, and my brain is very bright, and I am not stupid. ”
