Prequel. Chapter 15 Xiao Yan has grown up

From the capital to Taohua Village, it is only a half-day drive, starting from the morning, almost noon. It's better to be Sister Wan, whatever I say to her, I will respond to my request.

In this world, I can still feel dependent, probably only my mother and Sister Wan, although we are not the same mother, but over the years, I have always regarded her as my closest and dearest person, she has also done everything a sister can do, try her best to be good to me, we have never had a fight between the boudoir before, no calculation, no jealousy. Although Xingyi is really good with me, she is younger than me and is not sensible, and I have to worry about many things for her.

"Miss, it's here."

Yuyin opened the curtain of the car, I was helped by her to get out of the car slowly, step by step forward, everything here is the same, just come back again, the mood is not the same as before.

Looking at the open thatched house, but there was no one at all, Yuyin suddenly hid her face and smiled, I sighed: "This Mujing, I don't know where to go, forget it, let's go to the peach blossom forest in the back mountain for a walk." ”

Mu Jing is his mother's fellow disciple and was also good friends with his father when he was young. For as long as I can remember, he had a pot of wine with him every day, and a green flute in his hand, but I never heard him sing it. Every day, in addition to taking care of me according to my mother's entrustment, he wandered around alone, savoring the wine that his father brought him from everywhere.

He is free and easy by nature, informal, and does not like to care about seniority, since he was a child, he didn't like me to call him uncle and senior, just call me by his name, I was a child, and he can talk about it, there are always endless words, this time, the name is familiar, and it can't be changed.

I don't know where my mother studied with him, my mother was frail and couldn't practice martial arts since I was a child, but I heard that Mu Jing's martial arts were extremely high, and when he was young, he was almost unmatched in South Vietnam, but then he didn't know what happened, he no longer had the heart to fight and kill in the rivers and lakes, and lived in seclusion in Peach Blossom Village, and never showed up again.

I'm not sure about anything else, but his light skills are really good, after all, this is the only one that he has a chance to show me.

Mu Jing's family is in the most remote part of Taohua Village, when I was a child, because my father was afraid that I would not be used to the life here, he asked someone to build a house like Beijing, which is in a place where the population is concentrated, where all kinds of food are available, but after I left, the house was not inhabited, and it was deserted for a long time.

Over the years, he has also been living in the former thatched house, although it is dilapidated and remote, but it is the closest to the most prosperous peach blossom forest, and it only takes half an hour to walk there.

At this time, it was the season of peach blossoms, and as I remembered, all the way down, the peach trees on the piles, the peach blossoms everywhere, and the bursts of fragrance came to the nose, which was really comfortable. Compared with the right and wrong place in the capital, I don't know how much better it is.

"Xiao Yan." There was a call in my ears.

I looked up and saw a dark green figure standing leisurely on the trunk of a tall peach blossom tree beside me, looking at these peach blossoms, which was really a good match. I still saw the green flute on his waist at first sight, and a large pot of wine in his hand, and before I could think of what to say, I heard him continue: "I haven't seen him for a long time, but I have changed a lot." ”.

After he finished speaking, he jumped up and fell in front of me leisurely, stretched out his hand to brush the falling flowers on my forehead, and the smile on his face suddenly increased, "Xiao Yan, you've grown up." ”

Only when I got closer did I realize that he was drinking very strongly today, and listening to the tone of his speech, it seemed that he was very drunk, and he should have drunk a lot. I saw that his gaze was always on my face, and I was a little uncomfortable.

"Mu Jing, what's wrong with you today?"

He still looked at me with a smile on his face, and muttered, "It's like, it's like." When she was younger, she was probably like you. ”

"Like whom? Who are you talking about? I blurted out to him.

He didn't answer, turned and walked back, probably finished the wine in his hand, and threw down the empty bottle. Yuyin and I shook our heads at the same time, and slowly followed him. I didn't make a sound all the way, and I didn't have the mood and energy to wonder who the person in his mouth was, a person with such advanced martial arts, who was invincible in South Vietnam, how superb his martial arts should be, how much effort he should have put in when he was young, if there was no reason to give up, how could he give up easily. Among the reasons why you have to give up, is there also an unknown love affair between children and a past that is unbearable.

"Xiao Yan, have you ever heard of Limo?"

He stopped abruptly and asked me.

Off the ink? There was a sudden heat in his mind, and after thinking about it, he seemed to have some impressions, and replied to him: "Not long ago, I heard people in Beijing say that this person came to South Vietnam two years ago, proficient in evil skills, flames and demons, and kills people invisibly, but no one knows where he comes from and who he obeys, nor is he an ordinary killer who collects money and does things for others, and no one has seen his true face, so he is called the number one killer in South Vietnam." You're talking about him, is that him? ”

"Yes, that's him." He let out a long sigh, sat down casually on the ground, and continued, "You know what? At first, I didn't believe that there was anyone else in this world who could do this, until the night before, when I was in the village, I was fighting a masked man, and he did this to me. ”

"That person, is Limo?"

"As rumored to say, Limo does know that martial arts, and that person must be him." Mu Jing seems to have been determined, that person is Limo, but in the words, there seems to be a trace of doubt about this matter, I look at his appearance today, I don't dare to ask him anything, and quipped: "That Mu Jing, you or that Limo, who is better?" ”

"Hahaha!" He suddenly laughed, and then said: "Looking at the whole of South Vietnam, there is really no opponent who can make me look at it, this Limo is indeed a rare talent, he can reach this realm at a young age, but it is a pity that his mother let him go this way, but she did not teach him everything that should be taught, otherwise this child can really be compared with what I have." ”

"His mother?" Curious, I continued to ask, "Do you recognize his mother?" Then you know who he is. ”

He turned his head to look at me, with a smile on his face, and asked me with a playful meaning: "When did we Xiaoyan become so interested in other people's affairs?" Why, I recovered my memory, and I remembered that I, a lonely old man, had come, and I knew that I would come back and see. ”

I was instantly awakened by what he said, this time I came to ask about Brother Yun's affairs, but I was really forgotten by his words.

But listening to his tone, there was a sense of schadenfreude, if he didn't know about what happened half a year ago, and I didn't believe it, he was so good with his father and mother, they would naturally discuss anything with him. Could it be, it was his idea, he was so good in the rivers and lakes back then, and he must know everything about some medicines or something, otherwise how could his father and mother have that ability, so speaking of which, it is very likely that he is the mastermind in this matter.

This Mu Jing, in vain I have always trusted him so much, actually stabbed me in the back like this.

"Mu Jing." I stood up angrily at what I thought, and he was startled by me, looking at me blankly, "What's wrong with you?" I don't think I'm messing with you. ”

I didn't want to talk to him more, so I asked him directly: "I lost my memory half a year ago, was it you who caused it?" ”

"What?" He looked surprised, as if he had been wronged, and tried his best to clear himself from this matter: "What I instigated, this matter has nothing to do with me, I persuaded my senior sister and them for a long time, and they all insisted on doing that, what can I do?" But Xiao Yan, they are also good for you. ”

I shook my head, a smile on my face that I didn't even know what I meant, "But I've been living in nightmares for the past few months, and it's really not a good day. ”

Feeling the smile on my face getting stiffer and stiffer, I looked at him and continued: "If this didn't come out of your mouth, I probably wouldn't believe it, it turns out that he is no longer there." ”

He sighed, "Don't complain anymore, when you jumped to the bottom of that cliff, your mother was so scared that half of her life was gone, that abyss, jumping down, if you didn't meet someone like me, then you would have died." Don't be like this next time, it's for your mother, her life, but it's really not easy. ”

"Huh." I couldn't help sneering and quipped: "I, Su Yi'er, have lived for so long, and it's really the first time I've seen someone like you, and I don't know what kind of beauty she was back then, so that she could enter your eyes and win your heart." If I'm lucky, I'd love to see that man's face. ”

I saw the smile on his face fade and realized I had said the wrong thing, God, I swear I didn't mean to. It can be seen that he has this look, I am really curious, what kind of woman will make him so, give up everything and retire to the rivers and lakes, have not married a wife for so many years, stay alone in a small mountain village, accompanied by wine all day long, these years, he has not looked for that person, isn't it, the person is no longer there?

It's a pity, it must be a strange woman, I can't see it in this life.

"Xiao Yan." He called me softly, and I looked at him blankly, and did not answer, only to hear him continue: "I said that you look a lot like her. The way you are now is what she was when she was younger, and you really, really look like her. I'm sure that one day, you will meet her. It's been too long to come out, go back and cook something for you to eat. ”

"Okay."

That was the first time I saw the tears in the corners of Mu Jing's eyes, and the first time I saw that look on his face. Once again, I believe that love words mislead people, and love words hurt people.

I can't bear to continue to say anything to him, I want to ask, since she is still alive, why don't you go to her, have they ever loved each other? After that, why did they separate? Or, for so many years, he has been lonely and deeply in love with her alone? Does she know what she wants? It's like, my brother Yun, is he really gone? Before he died, did he remember the agreement between us, did you know that his little face had been waiting for him...

After returning to the house, we took care of the previous two rooms as quickly as possible, one for me and one for Yuyin. Because of Mu Jing's cooking skills, it is really... It makes people a little daunting, so the matter of eating, handed over to Yuyin to go outside to buy, although the peach blossom village into the village seems a little remote, but it is not very far from the nearest market, Yuyin bought two meals for the three of us, and after lunch, Mu Jing still flew to the mountain to drink as usual.

Rare leisure, no need to worry about the disturbances of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Beijing, no need to be decent, I was happy to take a nap, this sleep is very peaceful, I slept until the night before waking up.

I really don't want to eat at night, and Mu Jing hasn't come back yet, the countryside is cold and lonely at night, and most of them will blow a gentle wind, so it's the most suitable time to go out.

I changed my clothes and was about to go out for a walk with Yuyin, just walked outside the door, and I didn't have time to close the door, only to hear a "bang", my eyes quickly moved to the left, because the light was dim, I could only see a person, I walked over slowly, a smell of blood came from the table, he seemed to be seriously injured, the whole person fell to the ground, and even breathing was a little difficult.

Will it be here at this hour?

I squatted down, ready to help him up, instinctively looked at his face, but suddenly exclaimed: "Your Highness King Yun, why are you here?" ”

Seeing that he was silent, he asked again, "What's wrong with you, why are you injured?" ”

He stared at me for a long time before he asked me, "Su Yi'er, how could it be you?" ”

I replied to him without reservation: "This is my father's friend's house, and I only came here today, don't talk yet, I'll help you into the house." ”
