Huang Ying shook her head: "Mingen, between us, it's impossible." You, live well and take care of the magpies. ”

Fan Mingen sighed: "It's because I'm too greedy and have done so many bad things, and I even hope that you can forgive me and be with me as if nothing happened." But don't worry, I won't break my promise to you, you can save them according to my words, and I will take the magpie with me all the way. ”

Huang Ying nodded, turned around and got on the bamboo raft.

"Yellow Warbler!" Fan Mingen still stopped her, "I ask you one last word, you must answer me truthfully." Have you ever had me in your heart? ”

Huang Ying looked at him and didn't speak, silently lowered his head, and left with the bamboo raft. Fan Mingen looked at her distant back, and only walked out of the maze step by step until she could no longer see it.

Although she didn't answer, he knew that she had him in her heart, but the death of the cuckoo and the magpie was an insurmountable chasm, and she couldn't say such a thing as him in her heart, so she just bowed her head and acquiesced. If she didn't have him in her heart, how could she help him bandage his wounds and let him go, her former indifference was just an armor that wrapped herself to isolate love and hate, and she never invaded poison, she always lived for others.

Those jade flowers and night pearls can actually be moved, but they need to follow the steps and rules, and if the order is wrong, the mechanism will be triggered, which is required by Ming Taizu in order to prevent others from entering and stealing treasures. If it weren't for the Jingyan change that caused the mechanism map to be burned, the descendants of the Zhu family would be able to take out all the treasures as long as they held the mechanism map, but if it was replaced by someone else, there would be no place to die.

He didn't tell her this secret, because he knew that once he told her, she would tell Zhu Jinghong, and when all the treasures were taken out, it was inevitable that Zhu Jinghong would not attack their father and daughter. The value of these treasures left behind is greater than what can be taken, Zhu Jinghong will not give up, he will definitely study the way to crack it, and he is ambitious, and he will not stay in Shuiyue Villa forever, so he needs Shuiyue Villa to help him continue to guard the treasure.

Xi Xi opened his eyes, took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, two o'clock in the morning.

"Tachibana, are you asleep?" Xi Xi sat up a little depressed.

"What's the matter?" The orange cat stretched.

"Why did I wake up all of a sudden?"

"Because this dream is over."

"What, it's over like this? What happened to Huang Ying, and was the treasure shipped out? She was sure that this was the most depressing dream she had ever had, and even if it was a nightmare before, it had never touched her heart like this.

"How do I know. If you wake up on your own, it means that the dream is over, or that the opportunity has not come. ”

"Didn't the chance? What more chance do you need? "Xi Xi is angry.

"This dream won't be for no reason, there is no ending, and it doesn't use you, it doesn't make sense, it should be missing some opportunity." The orange cat said that it was very calm, it had lived for so many years, and it had seen too many things, and it was not as easy to get excited as Xi Xi.

"So I can only wait for this dream to come back to me?" Xi Xi said dissatisfied.

"You can go back to sleep, maybe you can go on."

"Okay." There is an unreliable cat, Xi Xi said that he was helpless.

What's even more helpless is that the next night is dreamless. After two days in a row, she didn't dream, she tried to fall asleep in a dream, but what she saw was a replay of the plot, Xi Xi wanted to scold her mother.

On Saturday, the school club federation organized to volunteer in a nursing home, and Xi Xi signed up. She grew up in an orphanage, went to school, received a stipend, and was arranged to work part-time, she has always been grateful, and she is very positive for having the opportunity to give back to the society.

There is a centenarian Wu Lao in the nursing home, who has just passed his 108th birthday, and it is said that he also participated in the anti-Japanese resistance and killed many devils. But because he had no children and no daughters, he was arranged in this nursing home when he was in his nineties, and he was the first batch of elderly people to move in, and he has lived there for more than ten years.

Xi Xi looked at the old man, always feeling a little familiar, but he couldn't say it, until he accidentally saw the pendant on the old man's neck and exclaimed: "Fan Mingen! It was a pendant given to him by the magpie, and she remembered it well.

The nurses in the nursing home cast unkind eyes one after another, secretly lamenting that the college student was screaming, and the quality was a little substandard.

Wu Lao didn't care, but said kindly: "Little girl, what did you just say?" ”

Fan ...... Fan Mingen? ”

Wu Lao's eyes flashed, and he was suddenly a little excited: "What's your name, how do you know my pseudonym when I was young?" ”

"I ...... I guess, oh no, no...... It's what I dreamed of, and some time ago I had a dream about Water Moon Villa for many days in a row. Xi Xi whispered.

Wu Lao first showed a hint of disappointment, and when he heard the words behind him, he rekindled his hope: "Little girl, can we talk alone?" ”

"Oh, good." She also wanted to know the end of this story, judging from Wu Lao's expression, he was Fan Mingen, and Fan Mingen said that his surname was actually Wu. So she pushed Wu Lao to the garden, sat on the flower bed and chatted with him. At the beginning, she still had some restraints, after all, Fan Mingen was a bad person, and she slowly became bold and told the original story of her dream.

Wu Lao sighed and said: "It may be that my limit is approaching, I have been dreaming about the past recently, and the matter of Water Moon Villa is the most unhappy thing in my life." Just now you called out my pseudonym in Shuiyue Villa, I thought you were the descendant of me and Huang Ying, I didn't want it just because you saw my dream, but this is also fate. ”

"You and the descendants of the Yellow Warbler?" Xi Xi showed a curious look, looking forward to Wu Lao being able to tell the story behind.

Wu Lao did not disappoint her, he looked into the distance, showed a sad look, and slowly spoke:

"After I left the Water Moon Villa, I stayed at the entrance of the Lost Forest and didn't go far. It didn't take long for me to see Huang Ying and Zhu Jinghong arrive in the lost forest. I followed them all the way and saw them go straight to a nearby big city. Zhu Jinghong rented a few safes at the bank, and then they took the treasure and stored it before going to the buyer. Later, the two had a dispute, Zhu Jinghong disliked Huang Ying and wanted to swallow the treasure, Huang Ying went back to Yan'an alone in a fit of anger. I also joined their cause so that I could watch over her silently. ”

Huang Ying took the initiative to ask to move from the rear to the front line, and finally died in a battle. I braved the hail of bullets to carry her body back, only to be punished for indiscipline, but I have no regrets. Huang Ying died, I didn't care anymore, I wanted to die with her, but I couldn't die. Because I promised her to live well, I want to help her realize her unfulfilled wishes, complete the great cause she dreamed of, I want to use practical actions to forgive my sins, only by dying on the battlefield, dying for the great cause, I can have the face to go down to see her. ”

"So every time I fight, I rush to the front, but the scourge is a thousand years old, I was injured again and again, but I was rescued again and again, not only did not die, but also made a lot of contributions, I gave these credits to my comrades-in-arms, I don't need to, I just need to be an unknown soldier, silently guarding her."

"Later, when we won and the founding of New China, some people told me about matchmaking, but I refused. When the war is over, I will atone for my sins in other ways. I'm 108 years old now, and I'm alone, and I'm old alone. I've spent my whole life atoning for my sins, and I think that's the greatest punishment God has ever given me. It was I who failed three women and killed four lives. ”

Xi Xi couldn't help but sigh, as of today, it is difficult to comment on right and wrong. At that time, she felt that Fan Mingen's death was not a pity, and it was intolerable to die in heaven, and it was not until this moment that she understood that Huang Ying was right to choose to let him go. Although she may have her own selfish intentions, judging from the results, it is more painful to let him be tortured by his conscience for the rest of his life than to die. And because he wants to atone for his sins, he has also made a lot of contributions to this society, which is better than killing him directly.

"I've been dreaming about Water Moon Villa lately, dreaming of them, I think they're coming to me, they're waiting for me. But I am ashamed of them, and I have no face to see them. I have sinned heinously, but I have become a hero. Little girl, can you do me a favor? ”

"You say."

"You help me spread this story, let me accept the condemnation of society, and let everyone see my confession, which can be regarded as my compensation to them."

"Elder Wu, I write a novel on Zongheng, I can write your story as a novel and publish it, but there are some places where some changes may be made, can you see it?"

"Yes, but you have to add a sentence at the end, based on a true story."

"Hmm. Just the end of the story......"

"You'll find out tonight."

Xi Xi came to Jinghu Lake again and saw the scene where Fan Mingen and Huang Ying were separated. She was hesitating who to follow, but she felt a suction force leading her towards Fan Mingen.

She saw Fan Mingen carrying the magpie's corpse all the way out of the forest, walking to an open place, and putting the magpie down on a boulder. As if making a big decision, he picked up the magpie and kissed it, stroked her hair and said, "Magpie, I'm sorry, I can't let you settle in the ground." But I will take you everywhere I go, and I will take you to see all over the world. But I can't take you like this, so I'm sorry for you. ”

He found a large number of dead branches and yellow leaves, piled them on her, took out the remaining oilcloth and fire folds in his arms, and set the dead leaves on fire with his eyes closed. The fire was blazing, and watching the fire engulf the woman in front of him made his eyes red.

When everything had calmed down and cooled slowly, he took off his coat, wrapped the ashes in thin sheets, held them in his arms, found a shelter and sat down, and waited there. This is the only way out of the maze forest, and he still can't rest assured that the yellow warbler.

The sky swirled for a while, and Xi Xi found himself standing on the bamboo raft of the yellow warbler. She understood the mystery after a little thought, Fan Mingen and Huang Ying must have met later, and he perfected the dream according to what he knew and imagined.
