Meng Wu smiled strangely and said: "Yes, a group of playful teenagers went to the Mausoleum of the Soldiers to find the legend of their dreams, several people also have the ability to stab the heavens and the earth, and they actually found the coffin of the Zen Emperor, and circled the corpse for a long time. ”

"When that boy grows up, he must be a terrible character."

"Prime Minister Meng Boyi."

"Prime Minister? I thought that these buttons were all with the soldiers? ”

Meng Wu smiled: "Who said that the prime minister would only be able to dance and ink?" Meng Boyi's deeds are known to everyone, needless to say, his body was still sent to the soldiers' mausoleum after his death, one day more than 20 years ago, Meng Boyi's descendants brought friends to worship the ancestors, the coffin slid down inexplicably, several teenagers quickly reached out to support the coffin, the coffin was shocked, and the choke buckle slipped from the coffin and fell into the hands of a teenager.

I was amazed, imagining the scene at that time, so who did this choke smell of the heroic breath in whose bones and blood?

The young man got the choke for no reason, and several people in his company rushed to wear it to see who was the main one. But the boy refuted this proposal, and said that the choke only appeared in troubled times, and now the four seas are peaceful, and the people who are good at war will make the king bully their neighbors, and the people will not be able to refute it, so the young man said this, and others could not refute it, so several people made an agreement at the same time, to hand over the choke to several people in turn to supervise, and wait until the turmoil of the country, when the righteous people are needed, and then take out the wrist buckle, looking for the head of the army. ”

These words were said in a heartfelt manner, and the young man was indeed extraordinary enough to say such things.

"Then who did this button fall for?"

Meng Wu smiled sadly: "How could such a spiritual object fall into anyone's hands casually." The young man just didn't want to destroy the friendship between brothers, but the hearts of people are separated from each other, and who knows whose heart has planted the seeds of jealousy?

"And then? This wristband has never been fastened again? ”

"No, no one dared to buckle it, maybe they were all afraid, afraid that if they did, they would have to take on the mission of a hero, and they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to buckle and be ridiculed by everyone."

"Why be afraid of a hero's mission? Is it bad to be a hero? Doesn't everyone want to be a hero? ”

"What's good about heroes, heroes are short of breath, heroes are choking, there are always regrets, for the mission, the covenant of the beacon, the determination of the battlefield, it is necessary to abandon the red face, and be lonely."

I nodded: "Then, why did this wristband get to the fifth uncle again?" Why did the fifth uncle detain Yan Wrong's hand? ”

Meng Wu sighed, stood up, and listened to his breathing, as if he was leaning over to look at me: "Do you know who the person who didn't wear the buckle back then?" ”

I was stunned: "Is it the fifth uncle?" Since the button is in his hand, it is very likely that he is the one who does not wear the button, but with his playful nature, how can he have such a profound idea?

"It's your father."

I didn't react, and asked in a daze: "My father?" ”

"Although your father didn't buckle the chokehold, everyone knows that he is the one who is looking for the chokehold. He didn't buckle the spiritual object back then, and I thought that if Yan Cuo was really his descendant, maybe he could be buckled - as a result, Yan Cuo really buckled, so I believed in Yan Cuo's identity without doubt. ”

I started to tremble—my dad—why did my dad suddenly appear in this saga?

"It's been in my hands for many years, and I've been avoiding giving it to someone else for safekeeping, I just want to wait for the day when I can return it to your father. However, it is the same for Yan wrong now. The Yan father and son are both the masters of the chokehold, which is indeed a strange story. ”

I stood up abruptly and said in a broken voice, "You know my father?!" ”

Meng Wu smiled sadly: "Yes, I not only know your father, but I have known you for a long, long, long time, a long ......time."

My heart is beating so fast, Meng Wu actually knows my father! I thought he was just someone who appeared by accident—

Meng Wu's pressure was very low, very low, he was chasing a distant dream, or a youth that had passed: "Since your father left, we have been looking for him in our own way-Yanzi, you are not as lonely as you think, although your father has left you for many years, he has planted more shade for you than you imagined during his lifetime, and besides, don't hate him-"

I suddenly got a little angry and asked, "Then did you also know my mother a long time ago?" ”

But for so many years, every time he came to my yard, he and my mother just nodded and greeted, as if it was just a one-sided relationship, and they all made an appointment with each other to act and deceive me?

Meng Wu said softly: "Yes, many years, but there is a difference between men and women, and they are not familiar." Maybe it's been too long, and your mother doesn't recognize me anymore. He smiled sadly.

I don't speak.

"Swallow, don't be angry." Meng Wu flattered as if he had done something wrong.

"I'm not angry, I'm used to it, I'm used to being kept in the dark, I'm used to being at your mercy like a fool." I was so angry that my toothache and my heart, which had finally calmed down, was filled with anger again.

I don't know if it's pretending to be stupid or really stupid, Meng Wudao: "It's true, it's really scary to get used to this power." Swallow, your temper is good, just like your father. ”

I was so angry that my whole body trembled, and I laughed angrily: "Who would be like him, turning his back on his family, abandoning his wife and children!" ”

"You're not allowed to say that about your father!" Meng Wu interrupted me loudly, startling me, I had never seen him so serious and so excited.

I trembled and wept, I have tried my best to avoid my father's affairs, even in the face of Yan Cuo in prison, I didn't dare to ask the truth about his death, but the existence of Yan Cuo is already the biggest explanation for this matter-

He failed my mother and failed me.

"No matter what your father does, he will always be your father, his sincerity to your mother is more important than the world, no one can doubt him, especially you!" Meng Wubing coldly scolded me, like a serious elder.

I also "stared" at him coldly and asked, "Then how do you explain his sixteen-year disappearance, and how do you explain Yan Wrong?" ”

Meng Wu sighed and said, "I can't explain it. ”

I cried in a low voice, yes, even if you want to defend him again, you can't explain everything now - Dad, I can forgive Yan for everything he did wrongly, just because he was brought by you, but I can't forgive you.

Meng Wudao: "Think about it from another angle, your father didn't let you be alone, he gave you an extra brother, although he is not very sensible now, but he will make you proud in the future, he will protect you, protect your family, and protect the world." ”

I cried silently, I really can't be proud, because soon, the fratricidal affairs of the children of the Yan family will become the laughing stock of this town, the respected Yan Zhutou He is not a hero, he is not an accident to hunt down thieves, he made a lot of mistakes that men will make, but there is no explanation. After all my fears and worries were gone, all I was left with was resentment!

"Yan Cuo he is not a bad boy, maybe in the past sixteen years, he has not had a good life, at least from the first time I saw him to the present, I have never seen him really laugh, he used his perseverance to hate you, hate is the only strength he persists, a person has no love in his heart, if he doesn't even hate anymore, how can he live? But I know he's not feeling well. ”

I said coldly: "Why does the fifth uncle want to help him speak?" ”

Meng Wu was a little surprised, and said: "The swallow I saw has always been defending Yan Cuo against the opposition of outsiders, why don't you want to hear good things about him?" ”

I was stunned, feeling guilty for the words I blurted out just now, did I subconsciously feel that all people should stand in my position to hate Yan Cuo? I can't listen to others say good things for him, but I defend Yan Cuo in their coldness, am I such a hypocritical person?!

A chill welled up in my heart, and I began to understand myself......

"The first time I saw Yan Cuo, I was stunned, he looks too much like your father when he was young, the same size, the same eyebrows, even the dimple is so similar, it seems that time suddenly goes back to more than twenty years ago, we are only sixteen or seventeen years old, your father is always smiling, and a group of us are carefree and quarreling over the trivial matter of who is better......"

Meng Wu sniffed, he was a little too emotional, but I was still not used to him mentioning my father's youth, it was too far away.

"So since that time, I have been following him, he appeared everywhere in the town, just to dye the speculation in the hearts of the townspeople, but I don't have to guess his identity at all, maybe I am the only one in this town who has seen your father when he was young, Yan Cuo is exactly the same as him. I followed him, just to find out what his purpose was here, so I made a little yellow finch and saw what kind of medicine was sold in this little mantis gourd. ”

Meng Wuwu came when Yan appeared in the town? But he was so late for the official appearance!

"The first time I met him in the alley, he was wearing a night coat and was spying on your yard. I saw that he was behaving in a sneaky manner, and concluded that he had bad intentions, so I decided to stay quiet and secretly follow him to see what tricks he was playing - he was not so unaware, and at first he carelessly stepped on a few wall tiles, but you didn't pay attention to it. ”

"I ...... I just thought it was a wall tile that had fallen into disrepair and fell off naturally - I didn't dare to think about it in that direction......"

Meng Wudao: "If you can think in that direction, then it won't be you." Maybe he didn't intend to scare you by pretending to be a ghost, until you were scared by the dead bird under the sheet, and he didn't think of these little tricks to toss you. ”

"Didn't he put the dead bird under the sheet?"

Meng Wu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, I've been following him, when you were scared by a dead bird in the courtyard, I just followed him back from Xihuayuan." When he saw that you were scared half to death but still held back, he immediately knew how to attack you. ”
