As long as a person goes by himself, then the whole world will give him concessions. ”

Huang Xiaowei was dressed as a simple peasant woman, standing with her hands in her hands, standing quietly in the lakeside pavilion, looking at the vast Daming Lake, and remembering what Li Xiangru said to him.

Ordinary people are firewood, rice, oil, salt, swords licking blood, rivers and lakes, and monks of the immortal land. She had escaped the life of being fed, or rather, she had never lived a life of misery for three meals a day. As the third lady of the Tsing Yi Gang, she is already in the rivers and lakes. As for the path of cultivation, she was hesitating. In the past, she had envied those monks who walked in the air, and flew to the ground with a sword, and felt that if one day she could fly wherever she wanted to go like them, it would be a very happy thing. However, she has seen those "immortals" that she envies, but she has seen the cruelty of killing people as if they were mustards.

Firewood, rice, oil, and salt nodded and endured humiliation, the rivers and lakes fought for their lives, and the monks were destroyed by splitting the heavens and the earth...... In fact, every class of people has that level of trouble. That is to say, as long as people live, they must have troubles and enemies. It has nothing to do with what class you live in.

The mother was already thin, but after giving birth to her, she became even more emaciated, and her depression became ill, which made her mother as before. She couldn't understand why her mother was always looking at the sycamore tree in front of the door in a daze, she asked, but as soon as she touched her mother's sad eyes, she kept silent. Old man Deng mentioned to her that she had her mother's hometown, but she had no relatives at home, and she didn't want to trace the roots.

When her mother was dying, she only looked at her kindly and gently, without any last words. Her domineering and savage father was like a simple villager, silent and sad. She knew that her mother didn't love her father, and her father should know it, and she also believed that if it weren't for her existence, her mother would have lost the idea of living a long time ago. At that time, she felt that she was very lonely, and she was the only one left in the world. However, Gu Daoming murdered his own father and harmed himself for the position of helping the master. Now that Gu Qingyun has passed away and Gu Daoming has escaped from the capital, she feels that her heart is barren and lonely.

After coming down from Chu Xiufeng, she returned to Ning'an Town, she contacted the two elders who were loyal to her and her father, and with their help, she met Gu Qingyi with difficulty, and Gu Qingyi passed on the position of the helper to her when she was dying, and used her secret power to bring back the disadvantage by virtue of the identity of the helper. When the chubby King Ning found her and showed Li Xiangru a token, she looked at the hundreds of iron armors behind King Ning and sighed. Then resignedly accepted Ning Wangdi's "assistance", she knew that once she accepted, the Tsing Yi Gang would no longer be the Tsing Yi Gang as before. If she doesn't accept it, she will face not only her eldest brother's pursuit, but also the forces in the court.

For what are you willing to compromise?

A lot of times, she doesn't know it herself.

Although Gu Qingyi is her biological father, because of her mother, she has never been close. Until the moment when he regained his clarity on his deathbed, he looked at her with guilt, and he whispered above him, "You are like your mother." After that sentence, she burst into tears......

Or, a responsibility.

It is to those brothers and uncles who cast enthusiastic hopes for her, and to those brothers who died for her at the gate of the Tsing Yi Gang headquarters and in the courtyard. It was his father's guilt for her.

The wind blew softly, stirring the corners of the skirt and robe.

On Daming Lake, only this thin and thin body stood alone, except for the wind, everything fell into silence.

After a long time, the wind stopped, and a slight footstep came softly from behind Huang Xiaowei. She didn't look back, until the footsteps stopped beside her, and she spoke: "I think, be the leader of this Tsing Yi Gang." ”

After a long time, the person who stayed next to her replied softly: "Hmm." Then there was no more sound, and the two of them stood together looking at the waves of the water in silence.

"Li Xiangru, what do you want to do next?" Huang Xiaowei still looked at the flowing water and asked softly.

Li Xiangru, who was standing beside her, turned his head to look at the new leader of the Tsing Yi Gang, looked at the more resolute expression on her face, and sighed. In the past half a month, or the experience of the past two months, this once simple and bold third lady has lost a lot of childishness.

Li Xiangru turned around and looked at the ugly lady under the big tree, and when the sky was slightly bright in the morning, they set off to go down the mountain, and after going down the mountain, they came directly to find Huang Xiaowei.

Douzi stood there chattering with a man, his expression worried and happy...... He smiled slightly and said, "It's good that the beans are fine, you see how happy the ugly girl is." ”

Huang Xiaowei glanced at Li Xiangru deeply, Li Xiangru didn't seem to feel the gaze, just looked at the ugly girl.

"Beans found me on their own. I thought I was going to die that night, so I knocked him unconscious, but the fire still reached the back room, and half of his face was burned. In the past half a month, he put on that mask to cover his burned face, and he began to become taciturn, and his eyes were cold, and I never saw him smile again. He found out the people who besieged the courtyard that night one by one and killed them one by one. When he killed, he didn't care about his life at all, he said that he wanted revenge and didn't want to be bullied by anyone anymore. He's no longer the trembling coward. If it weren't for the fact that the ugly girl and those younger siblings had left Beijing safely, he would have become even more crazy. Huang Xiaowei looked at the talking bean and the ugly girl, sighed, and said, "I don't know if it's good or bad to become like this." ”

She remembered that a few days ago, when Douzi indifferently stabbed the knife into someone else's body, the half of his face was hideous, and remembered that he repeated the action with a knife every day in his spare time, and he said that a master with a knife told him that the knife only needs to practice three times. After practicing three million times with one knife, a total of nine million times with a knife, his knife was considered to have been practiced, and then no one in the rivers and lakes could stop him three times.

Douzi believed it, and practiced a knife every day, which was an amazing perseverance, and she could also see Douzi's face twisted and sweating in pain because of the knife practice, and saw Douzi's swollen and painful arms. While following him from birth to death to kill the enemy, he practiced his sword desperately. This change made her feel heartache.

Li Xiangru glanced at her, then put his eyes on the ugly girl, his eyes were gentle, and said: "I never agree that a person has to experience misfortune and pain in order to grow, but I also comfort myself that there are thousands of paths in life, we all have to choose one to go on, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, just move forward." Some people are unlucky, and some people are more lucky, but in terms of time and place, we are like a speck of dust under the sky, and a star above the starry sky is small. In life, there are always bonds, and having bonds means that you will be in trouble, but it also means that you are no longer lonely...... People live for a lifetime, the grass survives for an autumn, and it is worth it to experience it painfully, reflect on the clouds, sing in the soil. ”

Huang Xiaowei was silent and thoughtful. She found that Li Xiangru was looking at the woman with gentle eyes, and she was quietly and peacefully talking to Douzi. He asked, "She, is that you don't live alone and singing, who are you, and why are you here?"

Huang Xiaowei vaguely guessed that Li Xiangru's origin was not simple, and she wanted to explore his secrets.

"Me?" Li Xiangru laughed to himself, "I used to be just an orphan who grew up among soldiers, but now I am a shell for revenge." ”

Li Xiangru was reluctant to say, Huang Xiaowei regretted it a little after she opened her mouth, perhaps, she really shouldn't know too much. She didn't know Li Xiangru before, but when Li Xiangru stepped into the sky on the mountain, she saw with her own eyes, and the fairy-like monks guarded him, and she knew that they must have taken different paths. The other party is just a passer-by in the journey of his life, coming in a hurry and leaving in a hurry. Maybe in the years to come, I will recall that there was such a "friend", friend, but she called Li Xiangru. She is not as innocent as an ugly girl, innocent, and has no hesitation. Perhaps it is precisely because of her lack of character that she will be farther and farther away from Li Xiangru.

Huang Xiaowei sighed and said, "Now, you are no longer a shell, are you?"

Li Xiangru nodded and said, "The teacher has been teaching in the mountains for a few days, so I have a lot of meals. I don't want to live in hatred for the rest of my life. If I only live for revenge, my father will be very disappointed, and the commander once warned me on his deathbed that I can take revenge but not regard this as the only goal of life. I figured it out. ”

Li Xiangru looked at the lake in the distance, held the railing with both hands, and said without sadness or joy in his tone: "My name is Xiaohu and I am an orphan. was picked up by my dad and grew up in the barracks. Burning City is a small city on the border of Gongzhou, there are not so many rules in the military camp, and because my father can cook good dishes and has a good popularity, I stayed in the army. Under the guidance of my father, uncle, and military advisors, I grew up safely. That's my home. It's just that the home was destroyed. ”

Huang Xiaowei followed him to the railing, gently leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, and said: "I have heard that Lu Changfeng is the hero of Jingguo, and more than 100 people were slaughtered in the Marshal's Mansion overnight, and it is said that no one survived. There are many exiles from all over Kyushu in Ning'an Town, but no one respects the commander of the road. ”

Huang Xiaowei leaned his head against the pillar, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said flatly: "Of the two corpses that stayed in front of the Marshal's Mansion, one of them, I knew, I had an impression of him because I knew his sister. Her sister has a good hand at needlework. The man, with an obvious scar on his face, had seen it once before, and he looked very ordinary. ”

"His name is Wang Qing, the head of the division commander and the dead guard. betrayed the commander for the sake of his sister. Li Xiangru replied lightly: "There is also a man named Mao Ye, who is also the death guard of the division commander, and he is the smallest. ”

The corners of Huang Xiaowei's mouth hooked slightly, which was a kind of disappointment and self-deprecation. The more she goes down, the more disappointed she will be, in many things, she can be confused and not ask, but some if she doesn't say it, it will become a stalk in her heart.

As the third lady of the Tsing Yi Gang, although she didn't have much interaction with the people in the gang at first, under the influence of her uncle and elders, she was naturally not just a person who was ignorant of everything. All of this really has a purpose, right? She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit that this possibility existed, especially when King Ning walked in front of her and promised to help, everything was different.
