144 The events of the year
With Hua Fei's words, Xin Chichen let Huang Rui go, and only asked people to tie him up and throw him into the cave in the back mountain.
He doesn't have a good impression of Hua Fei, after all, he is also an official family, and this surname is too unpleasant.
It's just that in view of the fact that the divine beast is in her hands, he can only suppress the displeasure in his heart and let her stay in the Xiashui Village for the time being.
All the gloom is over, and all that remains is sorrow.
This time, the Crouching Tigers suffered heavy losses, hundreds of casualties, and the number of deaths temporarily counted out was already dozens, and those were all people who had lived here for more than ten years, and they had long been like relatives.
Some have lost their loved ones, some have lost relatives and friends, some have been seriously injured and life and death are uncertain, and the entire Xiashui Village is full of wails one after another.
However, the heaviest losses were the officers and soldiers brought by Huang Rui this time, except for him, the rest of the army was wiped out.
This is also the only time that among the officers and soldiers who came to the Crouching Tiger Gang to suppress bandits, almost no survivors survived.
The nearby rivers and streams are all dyed red, and even the sky is now hanging a red glow, as if it is deliberately reflecting this scene.
During Xin Ling's coma, Huang Qiu stayed by her bedside. After Hua Fei stayed by the side for a while, she turned around and walked towards Xin Chichen's residence.
There are some things she must ask to understand.
Xin Chichen was not very welcoming to her arrival, and looked at her coldly while lying on his seat covered with tiger skins, chewing sugar cane.
"What are you going to do?"
After asking, he spat out the bagasse in his mouth so heavily that he almost splashed all over his body.
Hua Fei lowered her head and flicked her sleeves slightly, patted off the bagasse on it, and then looked up at him and said, "Gang Master Xin, I came here this time to ask you a question." ”
"If you have a fart, let it go, I'm very busy." Another mouthful of sugar cane chewed hard.
"You said before that the official family who used your tribe was also surnamed Hua?"
Xin Chichen sneered: "Yes, what's the matter, could it be that person is your father?" So much to ask. ”
Hua Fei bit her lip and was silent for a moment before raising her head and saying, "If my guess is correct, the person that Gang Master Xin said should be my father." ”
When Xin Chichen heard this, he almost bounced out of his seat.
After he spit out the bagasse in his mouth, he looked at Hua Fei with wide eyes and asked, "What did you say?!" ”
"The gang leader once said that he is now in a high position, but in the capital, there is only one person surnamed Hua who is in a high position, and it is Hua Sheng, who is now in the position of general."
"Are you really the daughter of that wolf-hearted bastard?! Okay, I've finally been caught, and I'm going to avenge my sister now, so as to comfort my sister's spirit in the sky! ”
Hua Fei wanted to say something, but saw Xiao Zhan walk in from the door.
He glanced at Huafei, stepped forward to take her hand, held it slightly, and then looked at Xin Chichen and said, "Gang Master Xin, have you ever thought that she may be your sister's daughter?" ”
Xin Chichen was stunned for a moment, and then looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hmph, you want to lie to me again? I sent someone to inquire before, my sister's daughter had a serious illness when she was a child, her brain burned out, and she has always looked like a fool, which is not her appearance at all. You people are so cunning, and you lie casually. ”
Hearing this, the two who were originally just skeptical confirmed the conjecture in their hearts at this moment, and glanced at each other, their eyes full of surprise.
Hua Fei hugged her chest and smiled lightly: "Then have you ever heard that stupid daughter of General Hua has been cured?" And he has married the prince of Zhenguo as his wife. ”
Xin Chichen squinted at her slightly before he said, "What am I doing with this?" Anyway, my sister is dead, her daughter is stupid, and Hua Sheng's thief is living a very happy life, so why should I find my own unhappiness. ”
Hua Fei stomped her feet, and said with a look of hatred: "I'm the stupid and sick daughter!" Uncle, I'm your niece! ”
Hearing this uncle, Xin Chichen had a different feeling in his heart.
I think when my sister gave birth to her daughter, she hadn't exposed the thief's conspiracy. He hugged the little baby with a pink jade bracelet and was very happy.
Thinking about it now, sixteen years have passed in a flash, and she was only a month when she was separated, and if she grows up smoothly, she will indeed reach this age.
It's just that he still doesn't believe that the person in front of him is his nephew.
When the thief was with his sister, he had already hooked up with another powerful young lady, and as soon as his sister died, he married her and entered the door, and I heard that he also gave birth to a daughter.
The one-year-old difference doesn't show anything at all, and he won't be easily fooled anymore.
He snorted softly and said, "Don't scream so affectionately, and think I don't know that you are scheming against me again!" ”
Hua Fei sighed, why didn't he believe her!
She continued: "Uncle, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to the capital to inquire and see if I am lying. ”
"Don't say these words to try to fool me, get out of here, disturb Lao Tzu's rest!"
Xin Chichen didn't want to talk to her more, so he grabbed the sugar cane and went to the back room.
Hua Fei glanced at Xiao Zhan helplessly, and the two had no choice but to leave.
However, this time it was not without gain, at least it was determined that Xin Chichen was Hua Fei's uncle, and Xin Ling was her aunt.
"Zhan Zhan, I think it's amazing, when I saw Ling Girl before, I thought she was very kind, but it turned out that she was actually my aunt, does the bloodline really have such a great magic?"
"Blood is thicker than water, and it's understandable to feel this way. It's just that I didn't expect that your background would hide so many secrets and conspiracies. In terms of time, Hua Sheng was just a small general at that time, and it was not worth mentioning at all. ”
"Being able to gain my mother's trust, and then use my mother's power to fight for the world for himself, and kill my mother after being discovered, it can be seen that he has always been a sinister villain. I'm afraid that there are still many people from the tribe who used to follow my mother who are kept in the dark by him and are working for him! ”
Xiao Zhan looked at her indignant appearance, and suddenly felt a little distressed, she was supposed to grow up carefree, but she became a victim.
Remembering how scared and helpless she should have been in the deep mountains when she was a child, how scared and helpless she should have been in the mountains, no wonder that fear was carved into her bones.
She must have suffered more than this when she was a child, maybe even the serious illness that burned out her brain was caused by man-made.
He held her hand tightly, took her words and said, "The Song family he married later is the daughter of Song Zhuo, the former general of Fuyuan. Although she is just a concubine, Song Zhuo's two sons and daughters died early, and the generals who followed him also followed Hua Sheng's men, so from this point of view, this matter is not unavoidable. ”
Hua Fei suddenly realized: "Zhan Zhan, you are right, I also think that there must be something greasy in this matter, and we must check it out when we go back." ”
