Hehe! Now, many years later, I really don't know if this is a sad one. Or is it a welcome growth?

Perhaps, in this world, there is nothing good or bad in itself, but the scale of measurement is different.

As I pondered these questions, my childhood vanished, and it was a sadness; As I think about these questions, my mind begins to mature, and I think more about questions than my peers, which should be a gratifying aspect.

I looked up halfway up the mountain, and there were electric lights, and they gave off a very bright light, and they all illuminated the snow on the snowy mountains.

The lights are brighter tonight than usual.

But except for the light, the others are still as quiet as ever.

I thought, "Will Mother be there?" If she doesn't come home so late, isn't she afraid of the dark? ”

I dragged my insensitive foot out of the yard, and I wanted to go up and see if my mother was there.

Standing at the gate, I remembered my mother's words again, and she told me not to go anywhere and wait at home for her to come back.

I hesitated, but looking at the snowy light halfway up the mountainside, a strong longing rose in my heart, and I wanted to go up and have a look.

Suddenly, there was a loud, noisy noise halfway up the mountain!

It was loud, sudden, and so it sounded without warning!

Slightly surprised and a little curious, I withdrew my gaze from the snowy mountain and looked halfway up the mountain.

There, suddenly, many, many people appeared, shouting, carrying torches, flashlights, rushing down, chasing something. Is it the tiger that has broken in again?

I couldn't see clearly, the fog was so thick halfway up the hill that I wouldn't have seen anyone there if it weren't for the people with torches or flashlights.

There was a buzzing sound in the sky, it was scary, something was flying!

But I don't know what it is.

Birds? Or is it a carving? It should be an eagle! Because the birds are not that big!

But its eyes were so scary, so big, and the snow was bright, like the sun's rays, piercing the thick fog.

I've never seen such a big bird, and for a moment, I couldn't say how happy I was.

I stood on my tiptoes, trying to see better.

It flew over, towards me. I'm really happy, what kind of bird is this? So mighty?

I beckoned, as if shouting, "Hello! ”

But the mother suddenly appeared, and without warning, she suddenly emerged from the thick fog.

She grabbed me and rushed into the house.

In my hurry, the blanket on my body fell into the muddy water......

I was so frightened that I didn't shout out the words that came to my lips.

When I smelled that familiar smell, I remembered that it was my mother.

My nose suddenly became sore, and I threw myself into her arms and cried: "Mom, why did you come back at this time?" Xiaoxue is really scared. Xiaoxue misses you! ”

My mother lifted my chin and stared at me, her eyes becoming the same again. Kind, bright, beautiful, that look that scared me was gone.

"Xiaoxue," she stretched out her hand, wiped the carbon black off my face, and suddenly hugged me again, choking up: "Xiaoxue, mom is back, don't be afraid." Don't be afraid! ”

She cried!

I couldn't see it, but I knew my mother was really crying!

I cried too. I'm so happy!

My mother hugged me, walked briskly into the bedroom, and laid me on the floor.

She pulled out a very large bag from the cupboard, stuffed a few sets of my clothes into it, and hastily stuffed something I didn't know what it was.

"Mom, why are you packing your things, where are we going? Are you going to find Aunt Nan? "I looked at my mother, a little curious, a little excited. As soon as I found Aunt Nan, I had candy again.

Hearing my words, the movement of my mother's hand suddenly stopped. Her eyes became dull and dim.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoxue," she leaned over to pick me up and choked up, "It's Mom who is useless, Mom failed, and now ...... We can only run away......"

I don't know what failure is and what it means to fail.

But I know that running away is a fun game.

I ignored my mother's crying, opened my eyes wide, and asked with a smile, "Mom, is someone coming after us?" ”

The mother was stunned for a moment, nodded with a smile, and said, "Xiaoxue, but this time, we have to run for a long time." ”

"Xiaoxue is not afraid, there is a mother here!"

The mother did not speak. Carrying the burden on his back, he pulled out a long sword from under the pillow and hung it at his waist.

I froze, I never thought that there would be such a horrible thing in the place where I slept!

I was about to ask my mother why she hid the sword under her pillow, but suddenly I felt a tightness on my waist and my feet were empty.

I was picked up by my mother.

I immediately forgot the words that came to my lips.

I looked at my mother, but I could see a strange glint in her eyes...... Later I learned that this is called attachment......

My mother walked away ruthlessly, carried me out of the bedroom, and came to the hall!

The inside of the hall was very bright, very bright and bright, but it was not an oil lamp, the oil lamp was not so bright, and besides, my mother didn't light an oil lamp at all.

The light came in through the window.

The courtyard outside was bright and there were a lot of people.

Because I heard a loud noise.

I was suddenly scared, and by this time, I vaguely knew that it wasn't a game, because the people out there were fierce!

"Mom......" I couldn't help but hug my mother's neck.

"Xiaoxue, don't be afraid. Mommy is here! "There was that cold light in my mother's eyes again, but I don't know why, this time I won't be afraid.

My mother held me with her left hand, but her right hand held the long sword at her waist. But instead of drawing her sword and not going out, she went to the back of the hall.

There were people's shouts outside: "Wu Yanyue, you can't escape." It's useless for you to hide in there. It is better to come out and admit our mistakes before the patriarch. Perhaps, the patriarch will also consider letting your daughter go. ”

They are not talking about letting my mother go, but about letting me go.

I don't know why, but I think they are hateful because they are using me to blackmail my mother.

However, the mother didn't say anything, just pursed her lips tightly, and she turned a deaf ear to what the people outside said.

She carried me in her arms and her sword to the room at the back of the hall.

I thought, "Is my mother and I going to hide here?" But there's nothing here, so where can we hide? ”

I looked at my mother curiously to see what she wanted to do.

The mother's expression was very calm, and she did not have the slightest panic or fear because of the arrival of these people, as if everything was expected by her.

Looking at her calm expression, my originally restless heart immediately calmed down.

In the mother's arms, it is always the warmest and safest.

She walked over to a water tank in the corner and put her hand in it.

Don't...... Are we going to squat in the tank? But the water is very clear, and you can see the bottom at a glance, and there is no way to hide people.

The mother was as calm as ever, and gently put her hand into the water, but he didn't do anything, closed his eyes, and seemed to just feel if the temperature of the water was too low.

She's actually testing the waters.

This action only lasted for a few seconds, and then, the mother pulled the two rings of the water tank and turned it like a trick!

Crash!

In the water tank, a whirlpool immediately appeared! The water level is dropping fast!

The bottom of the water tank is actually empty!

For a moment, I felt indescribably amused, forgetting that danger was all around me.

Before the water could completely fall, my mother jumped into the tank with me in her arms.

The water vapor is blowing in the face, it is cold and cold, and it is really fun.

I almost laughed, but when I saw my mother's serious expression, I didn't dare to laugh anymore.

I just felt the wind whirring past me, and there was a feeling of flying through the clouds. Unfortunately, this feeling is particularly short-lived. It was so short that I didn't have time to cheer.

My mother carried me and fell to the ground, it was a very, very dark place!

I was scared and hugged my mother's neck tightly.

The water fell from the top of our heads, wetting us.

It's cold!

I couldn't help but sneeze.

My mother didn't speak, she just hugged me tighter.

I thrust into her arms, trying to suck up my mother's pitiful little warmth.

The faint light overhead was completely gone, and the rustling of the water was still ringing, but no water was falling.

They...... Did it flow into that tank?

I remember that the tank was there for a long time, but why it was there, I don't know. Right now...... I see, it's so dark down here! It turned out that the mother had made a hole under it.

It was so dark down here, so dark that I couldn't see my mother's face clearly.

I whispered, "Mom...... Are we going to hide here? It's so good here, they can't find us anymore. ”

"No!" Mother shook her head and said very seriously, "You remember, what you can't find is always just a moving ......."

"Oh!" I nodded as if I understood.

The mother took out a flashlight out of nowhere...... It's not an oil lamp, it's bright and bright!

I love the light it shines with.

I wanted to hold it, but when I saw my mother's expression, I didn't dare to open my mouth again.

My mother was calm, but I knew she was serious now. When my mother was serious, I didn't dare to make trouble, otherwise I would be spanked and it would hurt a lot.

It was a very dark and long hole, and my mother didn't say a word, and walked quickly in it.

I didn't dare to speak anymore, the atmosphere was really depressing.

Soon, my mother and I walked out of the long, dark hole and into a wide, wide hole. There's a lot of nice rocks here, and there's a lot of water, but it's also colder here.

My mother still didn't stop at all, and carried me all the way up.

I'm a little curious, with so many forks in the road, isn't my mother afraid that she will get lost here?

Why does she know which way to go?

She seemed familiar with the place.

Yes! My mother must have carried me behind my back before, and I came here secretly and walked all the roads here.

After walking for a long, long time, I finally smelled the rain!

We're going to the ground.

I suddenly became excited and kept looking. But here...... There are a lot of moving things, weird looks, and really scary. They're flying right overhead.

My mother told me that the weird-looking guy was called a bat.

They're ugly!

It seems that from that time on, I didn't have a liking for this animal.

The fog was surging and we were finally outside.

I wanted to cheer with joy, but my mother's face was still serious, and I didn't dare anymore.

The place where we came out was a cave.

I never thought that this cave would lead directly to our home.

The mother stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the sea of clouds in front of her, frowning, and silent.

The right hand couldn't help but press on the hilt of the sword.

"Come out! Don't hide! I know it's you! ”

Mother looked at the sea of clouds in the night, as if she was speaking to the sea of clouds, and also seemed to be speaking to the tree on the edge of the cliff.

There was no movement around.

Mother continued: "What do you have to say? If not, I'm leaving! ”

"Alas......" Behind the mountain rock, a person's sigh was suddenly heard, and a strangely dressed person walked out.

I turned my head to look at the man, who seemed to be an uncle!

I have so many uncles and uncles, and I can't remember how many of them.

I pouted disgruntled and said to him, "Who told you to find us?" ”

He looked at me, shook his head with a smile, looked at his mother again, and sighed: "Little sister, you take Xiaoxue with you, you know that you can't run away, why do you have to do these senseless struggles?" Come back with me...... I can help you figure it out. ”

The mother calmly looked at the sea of clouds under the cliff in front of her, didn't even look at him, and said coldly: "How will you know if you don't try?" If you have anything to say, just say it. I still have to be in a hurry, otherwise...... We'll have to do it. ”

The uncle didn't say anything, walked up to his mother, took out a package from behind his back, and said softly, "Take these things." All of them are popular silver tickets in the outside world. The days ahead are still long. Other than that...... There are also some things I gave to Xiaoxue in it. It will help you in the future. ”

The mother hesitated for a moment, took the package, opened it, and saw that there was a thick stack of beautiful papers, and a boxy box. The box was very old, but it was very promising, a bit like the box that my mother usually used to put her precious things.

"You ......," said the mother, frowning, "how did you get this thing?" ”

"I didn't make it! You stole it! The very good uncle smiled, not very concerned. His smile was hateful, but he was also very good-looking, very kind, at least better than his cousin's father's smile.

I don't understand what they're talking about. This box was obviously handed to his mother, but how did it become stolen by his mother?

The mother was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You are really honest and unkind." ”
