Chapter 14 Chasing the past, empty and sad

A few snowflakes fell. In the first snow of this winter, Xiao Yao stretched out her hand, the snowflakes were too light and thin, and they melted as soon as they entered her hands.

Sang-ryu walked into the house and helped her close the window.

Xiao Yao opened it, and Xiang Liu closed it again.

Xiao Yao went to open it again, and Xiang Liu closed it again.

Xiao Yao went to open it again, but Xiang Liu had already used spiritual power, and Xiao Yao couldn't open it at all.

Since leaving Chishui, Xiao Yao has been very calm, and at this time, he couldn't help it anymore, slammed his fist on the window, and glared at Xiang Liu angrily.

Xiang Liu said lightly: "What kind of person am I, you know from the beginning that since you dare to make a deal with the devil, you should have the courage to bear the consequences." ”

Xiao Yao was depressed, Xiang Liu was not wrong, it was a fair deal between her and him, even if she did it again, knowing that she would have to suffer the consequences now, she would still choose to transfer the Gu to Xiang Liu in order to protect her. It's just that Xiang Liu didn't ask her for compensation for too long, just because she took Feng Shao seriously, and the relationship between the two was veiled with a veil of warmth, Xiao Yao forgot that it was a deal between him and her, and she had no right to be indignant no matter what way he treated her.

Xiang Liu sat down, drinking wine, and looked at Xiao Yao, his eyes were complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xiao Yao finally spoke: "When can I leave?" What's your plan? ”

Xiang Liu didn't answer Xiao Yao's question, and threw a jar of wine to Xiao Yao's hand: "This wine is a specially refined spirit, and a cup can be intoxicating." ”

There was no charcoal stove in the house, Xiao Yao's body was a little chilly, and said: "No matter how strong the wine is, it can't make me get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows!" ”

She picked up the jar and took a few sips. The liquor entered the throat and rolled into the abdomen like a burning knife, and the body immediately warmed up, and the heart gradually relaxed.

Xiao Yao kept drinking, and Xiang Liu accompanied Xiao Yao to drink silently.

Sang-ryu suddenly asked, "Are you willing to marry Feng Long?" ”

Xiao Yao was already drunk, but he still sneered: "Why should I promise him if I don't want to?" ”

Xiang Liu said: "Xiao Yao, look at my eyes." ”

Xiao Yao looked at Xiang Liu, Xiang Liu's eyes were like bright black gems, exuding a strange light, Xiao Yao looked at it and felt that she had fallen in.

Sang-ryu asked, "Are you willing to marry Feng Long?" ”

Xiao Yao's expression was dull, and she replied softly: "I don't want to." ”

Sang-ryu asked, "Would you like to marry Jing?" ”

Xiao Yao's expression changed, she seemed to be struggling to wake up, Xiang Liu's eyes shone even more, and her voice became softer and softer: "Are you willing to marry Ye Qiqi?" ”

Xiao Yao muttered, "Yes." ”

A question was on his lips, but Xiangliu hesitated, and after a moment, he asked, "Who do you want to be with for the rest of your life?" ”

Xiao Yao opened her mouth, as if she wanted to answer, but her expression was very resistant, and her will refused to answer.

After a few struggles, she became more and more painful, her body trembled, and she suddenly hugged her head: "Pain, pain......" Xiang Liu used witchcraft to spy on Xiao Yao's heart, but Xiao Yao's will was extremely tenacious, and when she encountered a problem that she usually refused to think about, she would be extremely resistant, and the headache was the outbreak of her resistance.

Xiang Liu was afraid of hurting her Yuan Shen, so she didn't dare to force her anymore, so she hurriedly withdrew her demon power and said to Xiao Yao: "If you have a headache, just rest!" ”

Xiao Yao leaned on the pillow tiredly, frowning painfully.

Xiangliu covered her with a quilt, and Xiao Yao suddenly opened her eyes: "Why?" ”

Xiang Liu looked at Xiao Yao, not knowing which one she was asking, why she forced her to repent of her marriage, or why she used witchcraft to spy on her heart.

Xiao Yao had already given up asking, closed her eyes, and muttered, "I'm so uncomfortable...... Xiangliu, I'm uncomfortable......"

Xiang Liu's palm was attached to Xiao Yao's forehead and whispered, "You will forget what happened just now, just sleep!" ”

Xiao Yao fell asleep, but there was a sarcastic smile on her lips, as if to say: Sleep, it won't be good!

—— ——

When Xiao Yao woke up, she had a splitting headache. She thought what happened last night was a bit strange, but after thinking about it for a while, she couldn't think of a reason, so she gave up.

Maybe because he got up early today, Xiangliu was not there.

After Xiao Yao finished washing, eating, wearing a silk jacket, in a daze in the sun, he heard the sound of children frolicking outside the hospital.

She opened the door and saw seven or eight children playing a game of housekeeping, preparing for the wedding and the bride. Xiao Yao couldn't help but lean against the door and look at it with a smile. She suddenly remembered pockmarks and skewers, and when she picked them up, they were probably that big, but at that time, they were not so noisy, they were very silent and cowering, vigilant and careful, and tried to work as much as possible, and ate less, lest she throw them out again. It was a long time before the two believed that she and Lao Mu would not drive them away because they had an extra bite to eat.

This must have been eighty or ninety years ago! The grass on the graves of pockmarks and skewers should have grown countless stubbles, but in her memory, everything is still vivid.

Not far away, at the base of the wall, sat an old woman with gray hair and a wrinkled face, looking very old, but still in good spirits, with neat hair and clothes, neat and clean, smiling and watching the children play.

The old woman beckoned to Xiao Yao: "Little girl, sit under the sun." ”

Xiao Yao walked over and sat under the sunny wall, very warm, with a sense of comfort on a spring day.

The old woman said, "I haven't seen you before, you are the ...... of the treasure pillar"

Xiao Yao didn't know who Baozhu was, maybe it was someone who Xiang Liu had transformed, maybe it was someone who Xiang Liu's subordinates had transformed, anyway, it should be the old woman's neighbor, Xiao Yao said casually: "Relative, I just came recently." ”

The old woman said, "Did you get noisy by the child?" You haven't had a baby yet, have you? ”

Xiao Yao sighed and said, "Who knows if there is a blessing in this life to have children." She repented of the marriage of the Chishui patriarch and ran away with a wild man, I am afraid that no man will dare to marry her in this life.

The old woman said: "Whether there is a blessing or not, it is up to you to decide." ”

Hearing this, it didn't look like an ordinary mountain village woman, Xiao Yao couldn't help but take a closer look at the old woman, and then looked around, only to feel a little familiar. If you strip away that row of dense bushes and make way to the river, if the old woman's house becomes smaller and older...... Xiao Yao asked hesitantly, "Is this the Rejuvenation Hall?" ”

The old woman said, "Yes! ”

Xiao Yao was stunned and looked at the old woman: "Tian'er? ”

The old woman was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed gloomily, and she said, "Since my family skewers passed away, I haven't heard anyone call me by this name for a long time. How do you know my name is Sang Tian'er? ”

Xiao Yao said, "I...... I heard the old man in town mention it once. ”

Sang Tian'er laughed: "I must be talking behind my back that I was a prostitute and didn't deserve a good life, but I just lived a lifetime with a skewer, gave birth to four sons and a daughter, and now I have ten grandchildren, eight granddaughters, and three great-grandchildren." ”

"Old wood, pockmarks, spring peaches, they ......"

"It's all gone, and I'm the only one left."

Xiao Yao was silent for a long time and asked, "Old Mu...... How is he going to go? ”

"Although Lao Mu doesn't have a biological son, Mazi and Kushiko treat him as their own father, and send him to the end of his old age, no worse than his biological son, Chun Tao and I are also good daughters-in-law, waiting for Lao Mu to leave with a smile."

Xiao Yao smiled slightly, she avoided asking questions, not that she didn't care, but that she cared too much, and she was finally relieved to know that they would be safe and stable for a lifetime. Xiao Yao asked Sang Tian'er: "Has the skewer ever disliked you?" Have you ever been wronged? Have you ever regretted it in your life? ”

Sang Tianer felt that the little girl's question was very strange, but from the first sight of her, Sang Tianer had a good impression, inexplicable, difficult to explain, just wanted to be close to her. Sang Tian'er said: "It's not a prostitute and a benefactor, I only see honey, but not oil and salt, how can I live without stumbling?" After I gave birth to two sons, I almost broke up with the skewers, but I couldn't help but beg for mercy and admit my mistakes, and finally made do with it. ”

can force a woman to give birth to two sons, and still want to separate, it can be seen that the string has made a lot of mistakes, but right and wrong, right and wrong, can be discussed for a while, or for a lifetime. Obviously, after a lifetime, when it was time to cover the coffin, Sang Tianer felt that she had done nothing wrong at that time. Xiao Yao asked: "People can only see for a while, not for a lifetime, how can they know the decision for a moment, even if they are uncomfortable for a while, but they will not regret it for a lifetime?" ”

Sang Tian'er said: "Don't say that I can't answer this question, I'm afraid that even those gods who have lived for hundreds of years can't answer it." Isn't this life like walking on a barren road? No one had walked, only one foot deep and one shallow, stumbling forward. The scenery of the deserted road that some people walk is beautiful, and the scenery of the deserted road that some people walk is a little worse, but no matter what kind of scenery, there will be cliffs, divergent roads, and wild beasts on the road...... It is precisely because it is a barren mountain road, the road is bumpy and dangerous, so everyone wants to find a companion, an extra pair of eyes, an extra pair of hands, take care of each other, you remind me that there is a trap, I remind you that there is a fork in the road, encounter a cliff, support to go around, encounter a wild beast, run away together...... The two of them stumbled, stumbled, and came over like this for the rest of their lives. ”

Xiao Yao was silent.

Sang Tian'er seemed to remember the past, squinted her eyes, and was silently in a daze. A child's laughter woke Sang Tian'er, she looked at her and Kushiko's great-grandson, and said with a smile: "I've cried and laughed in my life, it's worth it!" ”

Xiao Yao never thought that Sang Tian'er, who was standing at the end of her life, was so calm and satisfied, I don't know if it was because she had touched death, she seemed very wise and clear.

Sang Tian'er said earnestly to Xiao Yao: "Little girl, you must remember that if you want to get something, you must believe that that thing exists." You yourself refuse to believe it, how can you really give? If you refuse to sow the seed, you will not work hard to cultivate it, and you will not expect a good harvest. ”

The little boy was very anxious, and the "husband and wife" went to the doctor together, and the "doctor" wrapped the soil with leaves, and let them go home to decoction, and told them that it was best to have sex every two or three days, and not to get pregnant too often.

Xiao Yao burst out laughing, and Sang Tian'er said embarrassedly: "They often play in the hospital hall and eavesdrop on the conversations of adults." ”

Xiao Yao smiled at Sang Tian'er and said: "I haven't been happy for a long time, but today, I'm really happy." ”

Xiangliu had already returned, standing by the bushes, looking at Xiao Yao and Sang Tian'er.

Xiao Yao stood up and touched Sang Tian'er's head: "Tian'er, you did a good job, I think Skewer must feel that he has married a good wife, Lao Mu and I are very happy." ”

Sang Tian'er was stunned and looked at Xiao Yao blankly.

Xiao Yao walked towards Xiangliu, Sang Tian'er's voice was hoarse, and she shouted, "You, you...... Who is it? ”

Xiao Yao turned around, smiled at Sang Tian'er, and did not answer Sang Tian'er's question, she and Xiang Liu walked through the bushes and disappeared into the shadows of the trees.

Tears rolled down Sang Tian'er's eyes, she struggled to stand up, and knelt down and kowtowed in the direction where Xiao Yao disappeared.

Xiao Yao said to Xiang Liu: "Why didn't you tell me earlier, those children who quarrel with me every day for good dreams are the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Kushiko and Mazi?" "Life is really amazing, the two silent and quiet children she picked up back will leave a bunch of noisy children and grandchildren who give her a headache.

Xiang Liu said lightly: "I let you go out for a walk on the first day, but you are not interested." ”

Xiao Yao said: "I've been missing for so long, it's time for a ruckus outside, right?" ”

Sangyanagi didn't say anything.

Xiao Yao said: "What you are doing, but you have to carry the black pot of the Fengfeng clan, and the Fengfeng Yiying is bound to block this flying disaster for the Fengfeng clan, she is the wife of the Tushan patriarch, which is equivalent to dragging the Tushan clan in." ”

Xiang Liu sneered: "Do you think that I prevented you from getting married, just to make a grudge between Zhen Xuan and the Fourth Family?" Let's be honest! That's only half the reason. ”

"Where's the other half?"

"Tu Shanjing hired me to stop your marriage, and he promised that as long as I can prevent you from getting married, he will give me thirty-seven years of food and grass money."

"What?" Xiao Yao couldn't believe what she heard, Jing actually hired Xiang Liu to prevent marriage?

"If you don't believe it, you can ask Tu Shanjing yourself."

Xiao Yao said, "When can you let me go?" ”

Sang-ryu said indifferently: "I have got what I want, you have to go, anytime!" ”

Xiao Yao turned around and left, Xiang Liu said: "Remind you, Gu is still there, if you dare to leak Feng Shao is me, don't blame me for letting you die of heartache." ”

Xiao Yao Huo Ran stopped and turned to look at Xiang Liu.

Xiangliu said: "Don't you believe it? ”

Xiao Yao's heart was like being pierced by a sharp sword, and there was a sharp pain, and her limbs spasmed in pain, and she fell to the ground softly, lying on the grass in embarrassment.

Xiang Liu was like a creation god who controlled her life and death, condescending, looking at her indifferently: "If you don't want to die, don't say a word that you shouldn't say!" ”

Xiao Yao's face turned pale with pain, and his forehead was full of cold sweat, but he raised his face and said with a smile: "Is this the reason why you don't have time to go to Jiuli to relieve Gu?" Take control of my life and death, and one day threaten me? What a powerful General Xiangliu! ”

Xiang Liu smiled coldly, turned away, and with a long roar, stepped on the back of the white eagle, swayed up, and disappeared into the sky.

Xiao Yao's heartache disappeared, but the pain just now was too bad, and her body still had no strength, and after a while, she regained a little strength, slowly got up, and staggered towards the town.

Qingshui Town must have a stronghold to collect news for Zhuan, but Xiao Yao doesn't know which one. The secret stronghold that collects information for Emperor Jun, Xiao Yao is even more unlikely to know. On the contrary, Tu Shan's shop is easy to find, Xiao Yao walked into Tu Shan's jewelry shop on Xihe Street, and said to the guy: "I want to see Yu Xin." ”

The guy saw that Xiao Yao's tone was very confident, and he couldn't figure out where to come for a while, so he hurriedly called the boss Yu Xin out.

Xiao Yao said to Yu Xin: "Send me to Qingqiu, I want to see Tu Shanjing." ”

Yu Xin was very displeased with Xiao Yao's name for calling the patriarch, but he didn't have a seizure, he smiled reservedly, and was about to say something, Xiao Yao said impatiently: "Tu Shanjing will definitely see me!" If I say big things, you just run for nothing, anyway, I am in your hands, you can punish you at will, but if I tell the truth, you refuse my request, but you will offend Tu Shanjing. ”

Yu Xin has been immersed in jewelry all the year round, he has seen many distinguished guests, he is very eye-catching, he thought for a moment, made a judgment, and ordered his subordinates to prepare Yun Yuan, and he personally sent Xiao Yao to Qingqiu.

On the clouds, Yu Xin asked Xiao Yao tentatively: "I don't know why the girl wants to see the patriarch?" ”

Xiao Yao frowned and was silent. Why? She has a lot of reasons to ask Jing! Why do you want to block her marriage? Why hire Soyanagi? Why? Why?
