Chapter 12 "Heavy Snowfall"

A heavy snowfall turned the whole world white.

Xiao Xinyi remembered that on the night of the snow, her aunt Xiao Qingdai wrapped her under her cloak and rode Da Hei to lead her all the way.

Da Hei is the mount of her father Xiao Chonglou, a pure black tall horse, in fact, Da Hei has a very nice name called Wu Yan, but Xiao Xinyi thinks that the goose is too small, this horse is so black and so big, it should be called Da Hei.

Xiao Xinyi heard her mother Jiang Wanyun say that Da Hei was thirty years old and grew up with her father. Da Hei was a mother a year ago and gave birth to a handsome little stallion, as black and shiny as Da Hei, but Xiao Xinyi was so happy that he named it Xiao Hei.

Xiao Xinyi goes to the wild every day to pull the freshest grass to feed their mother and child, Xiao Xinyi has been waiting for Xiao Hei to grow up and take herself to the wild to run, and when Xiao Hei grows up, she should also grow up, at that time her brother Xiao Duzhong will not object to her to ride a horse.

It's a pity that before Xiao Hei grew up, he was taken away by Zhuge Haochu, saying that he wanted to make a mount for their eldest son.

The eldest son of the Zhuge family and Xiao Xinyi have played together since childhood, with a round face, round eyes, a round body, and a little fat man. Every time I saw Xiao Xinyi, I smiled like a crooked crescent moon, ran to her and called Sister Xin'er sweetly.

When Zhuge Hao first came, Xiao Xinyi went to the field to pull weeds, and when he came back, Xiao Hei had already been taken away by him, Xiao Xinyi was not very angry at that time, but he was very sad, and Xiao Hei, who had taken care of him for so long, was taken away without even seeing the last side.

I don't know if the eldest son of the Zhuge family will take care of Xiao Hei like her, and whether he will go to the field to pull the freshest grass for him like her, Xiao Xinyi looked at the big black with moist eyes, and secretly made up his mind that the next time he saw the eldest son of the Zhuge family, he must get Xiao Hei back.

For as long as she can remember, Xiao Xinyi likes to sit on Da Hei's back and let Xiao Duzhong take her to the green.

Xiao Xinyi had seen the big black in the wilderness run like a black lightning, the long horsehair was black and bright, and the wind that was brought up was as flowing as a girl's hair. Her biggest wish when she was a child was to let Da Hei take her for a happy run in the suburbs.

But Xiao Duzhong rarely took her to let Da Hei run, and every time he wrapped his arms around her on horseback and let Da Hei slowly slip around in the field and come back.

Every time Xiao Xinyi made a fuss on horseback and wanted Da Hei to run with her, Xiao Duzhong would jump down from the horse and hold her for a few circles, promising to take her to the suburbs to ride a horse when she grew into a big girl.

But Xiao Xinyi didn't wait to grow up before he was taken away from home by Da Hei all the way. Xiao Qingdai's cloak in the fight just now, I don't know whose weapon cut a long hole, although she has wrapped Xiao Xinyi very tightly, but the wind still carried snowflakes from this mouth whirring in, at that time Xiao Xinyi knew that the original horse galloping was not as fun as imagined, not only would it hurt all over the body, but the wind was blowing on her face so painful, and her tears were about to come out, but she didn't cry, she still had to squint and look outside, to see where Aunt Qingdai was going to take her.

Snowflakes like goose feathers seemed to fall endlessly, Xiao Xinyi felt that snowflakes were not beautiful for the first time, the snow decorated everything in this world in silver, which was different from what she was usually familiar with, and she suddenly felt that all this became so strange.

Passing through this begonia forest, there will be a small stone bridge in front, every time Xiao Chonglou goes out, Jiang Wanyun will take her to wait for her father to return on that small stone bridge, Xiao Xinyi is looking forward to the time when her father returns.

Xiao Chonglou would bring back all kinds of fresh gadgets and delicious things that she had never eaten at home. That little stone bridge carries the best memories of her childhood.

Da Hei finally took the two of them through the begonia forest planted by Xiao Chonglou himself, and was about to reach the small stone bridge, but Da Hei walked slower and slower, slower and slower, until there was a plop, and Da Hei's two front legs knelt deep in the snow.

Xiao Qingdai and Xiao Xinyi fell off the horse's back in unison, Da Hei neighed lowly, and his whole body was crooked, Xiao Xinyi only found out now that Da Hei's tail was gone, and there were several long or short cuts on the horse, and the moment Da Hei fell, the snow was instantly dyed red.

Xiao Xinyi didn't have time to grieve for Dahei, she saw streams of blood coming out of Xiao Qingdai's mouth, she was very scared, clumsily trying to find the elixir that could stop the bleeding from Xiao Qingdai's arms, Xiao Xinyi remembered that she had been carrying all kinds of medicines with her body, but she couldn't touch the medicine, Xiao Qingdai's clothes had been soaked in blood and stuck together with flesh and skin.

Xiao Xinyi didn't dare to tear her clothes, she was afraid of hurting her wounds, so she could only hug Xiao Qingdai tightly with her small body, hoping that she could warm up, hoping that her body could block the wounds on her body and stop bleeding.

Xiao Qingdai hugged Xiao Xinyi with her bloodstained hand, and said word by word in her ear with all her strength: "Go. . . Pair.. Twin Saints. Door.. Good.. Stay alive. After saying these words, Xiao Xinyi felt light, and Xiao Qingdai let go of her.

"What is the Twin Holy Gate, I want my aunt to go with me." This was the first time Xiao Xinyi had heard the name Double Holy Gate.

Then she saw Xiao Qingdai's body leaning back little by little, and kept leaning on the snow. But he couldn't answer her question.

She was very scared, hugged Xiao Qingdai and cried loudly: "Auntie, get up, aunt, you said you want to take me to my father, auntie, don't sleep." Auntie, aunt. At this time, although Xiao Qingdai's eyes were open, she could no longer hear her voice.

Xiao Xinyi struggled to crawl to Da Hei's side with his frozen limbs and hugged Da Hei's head with his small hand: "Da Hei, Da Hei, can you get up and take your aunt to find your father, okay?"

Seven days ago, Xiao Xinyi was sitting in the study with her mother Jiang Wanyun, doing her daily homework, next to a few pieces of rice paper with dried ink, helping the common people, living and working in peace and contentment Eight big characters jumped on the paper, small hands holding a thin brush, the handwriting was neat but a little immature, seeing that the last one was about to be written, a music word had just been written, but the rice paper on the table was blown to the ground by a gust of wind outside the door, before Xiao Xinyi leaned over to pick it up, Xiao Chonglou seemed to come with a cold air all over his body, and said to Jiang Wanyun who was stunned: " Yun Niang, something happened. ”

Xiao Xinyi had never seen such a gaffe appearance of his gentle father, and he was a little scared, and then, Xiao Chonglou didn't know what to say to Jiang Wanyun, only to see her take out a small jade pendant from her arms, because the patterns on it were too cumbersome, she had never looked closely at this jade pendant that Jiang Wanyun never left her body, Xiao Chonglou picked up the jade pendant and pushed open the bookcase standing by the wall, a small groove on the smooth wall was consistent with the shape of the jade pendant, put the jade pendant in, and a dark grid slowly opened on the wall, Xiao Xinyi's eyes widened in surprise, She had never known there was such a mechanism in the study.

"The Five Lakes Order is fake."

Xiao Xinyi, who was surprised, didn't know the meaning of these six words at the time, but saw Jiang Wanyun and Xiao Chonglou's faces turned white.

A wave of uneasiness welled up in my heart.

"Last night, someone led the various sects of the rivers and lakes to attack the imperial city in my name, and now I'm afraid it's almost there."

"What" Jiang Wanyun's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yun Niang, I have to stop it, it is my responsibility for the theft of the Five Lakes Order, if the imperial city is in chaos, it is the people of Li who suffer." Xiao Chonglou's voice was a little hoarse.

"I'll go with you." Jiang Wanyun grabbed Xiao Chonglou's hand and said.

"No, Yun Niang, Cang'an Villa needs you more at this time, so the Xiao family will ask you." Xiao Chonglou bowed deeply to Jiang Wanyun and then walked towards the door, paused when he walked to Xiao Xinyi's side, touched the top of Xiao Xinyi's head, and then strode towards the door, leaving her with an increasingly blurred back.

Xiao Chonglou left the black goose and a thousand guards who had been following him at home, but Jiang Wanyun couldn't sit still, except for leaving the black goose who was not allowed to be close to others, the thousand guards were all sent to chase Xiao Chonglou.

But the goose's normally radiant eyes were dim at this time, as if it was covered by a thick layer of mist, and its mouth was slightly open, but it did not make a crisp hissing sound in response to Xiao Xinyi.

There was a white expanse everywhere between heaven and earth, and the snowflakes were still fluttering down from the sky, covering the blood stains on the snow after a while, and the white snow had buried most of Xiao Qingdai and the black bird's bodies.

Xiao Xinyi cried for a long time, knowing that Xiao Qingdai and Wuyan would never wake up again, she endured the grief in her heart, and moved her limbs that had been numb and stiff, and Xiao Xinyi could no longer feel the cold at this time. Maybe it won't be long before she will freeze to death in the snow.

Even if you die, you have to die in Cang'an Villa! That was the only thought in her mind at the time.
