Text Chapter 167 Grievances and Snow
Untong Mountain Resort, located 800 kilometers from Kyoto, leads to a rugged mountain road.
Thinking that when he returned to Kyoto, he would be able to marry Ye Wanruo openly, and the alienation was like tireless, and the original three-day journey arrived at Yuntong Villa on the second day.
In order to cause unnecessary trouble, he changed out of a bright red outfit and wore a black night suit in a low-key manner.
Except for going to the post station to change horses, Li Shu almost never closed his eyes, only hoping to complete the task assigned by the old man and rush back to Kyoto as soon as possible, but he didn't know that danger was waiting for him to approach.
Coming to the foot of the mountain, the horses can no longer lead to the top of the mountain, and next to the stone steps stands a tall boulder engraved with four big characters of vigor and power: Yuntong Villa.
To say that the style of this Yuntong Villa is really puzzling, it actually built the villa on the top of the mountain, and the only passage to the villa is the small and steep steps in front of you.
I'm afraid that the stone steps to the top of the mountain, not a thousand, but also eight hundred, if you don't know kung fu, I'm afraid that when you walk to the mouth of the villa, you will vomit blood and die, right?
Li Shu tied the horse to the big tree next to him, took the gift in his hand, looked at the stone steps that could not be seen, the corners of his mouth hooked up a wicked smile, his body jumped easily, and his toes were on the cliff next to the stone steps.
I only saw a flexible figure like a butterfly flying, smart and handsome, and a few dodging people had already come to the door of Yuntong Villa.
The dark gate was closed, although I didn't know what kind of place this Yuntong Villa was, and I didn't know that it was so strange here, when did the old man meet the old man here? Thinking of the purpose of his trip, Alienation still knocked on the door.
"Is anyone there?"
Listening closely, there seemed to be no sound in the courtyard, and asked Lishu.
After a while, the door of Yuntong Villa was finally opened from the inside, revealing two small heads from the inside, not very old, looking like eleven or twelve years old.
When he saw the alienation at the door, the little boy asked in a childish voice defensively, "Who are you looking for?" The old master is not here, please come back on another day if you have something! ”
After speaking, without giving the alienation a chance to reply, the door must be closed again.
It's not easy to come once, if you return in vain, maybe the old man will ridicule him, sarcastically mocking him for not even being able to do this little thing.
Thinking of this, Lishu quickly made a move, put his hand on the door that was about to be closed, and said eagerly: "Wait a minute, this is the letterhead that the old man of our family asked me to bring, and these gifts are also brought to your family master, if the family master is not there, there is no defense, please accept this gift, I will go back and pay off." ”
When the two children saw the special letterhead, their eyes flashed slightly, the two young and old men looked at each other, politely opened the door, and said respectfully: "It turned out to be a distinguished guest, please forgive us for being clumsy, please come in quickly, the old man will go down the mountain to collect medicine, it is estimated that he will come back tomorrow morning, and please rest in the house for one night, and it is not too late to leave after seeing our master of the house!" ”
Originally, this day and night of hard work had exhausted the detachment, and when he heard the words of the two children, he didn't think about it anymore, thinking that he would just take this opportunity to rest for a night before leaving, so he walked in with the two children.
Outside the door seems to be depressed and decayed, but inside is a unique cave, walk in the door you can see the rockery around the lake, the lake water is crystal clear, you can't see the place where the water is drawn, but people feel that the lake seems to come out of the ground.
The water on the rockery is turbulent, and a lively waterfall is even more surprising to this masterpiece.
If you look at the rockery, there are red bricks and green tiles on three sides, but it is also clean and tidy.
"Are you two kids the only ones here?"
I didn't see any figures, and it was really strange to think that the head of this Yuntong Villa had two children guarding the house, which inevitably surprised the alienation.
"No, there's a cook in the backyard!"
A small, thin-looking boy replied.
"Childe, please rest first, and when the cook is ready to eat, we will send it to Childe!" Childe, please come with us! ”
Another boy spoke, and although he was not very old, he spoke with a clear and straightforward look. After speaking, the two children took the lead and walked out towards the left side.
Li Shu secretly shook his head, thinking that these two children were really interesting!
When he walked to one of the doors, a water snake suddenly sprang out of the lake and ran straight towards Lishu.
Just before he could react, the two children had already stepped forward, moved forward quickly and flexibly, grabbed the snake's seven inches, and controlled the water snake in their hands.
"Lingxiao, don't be rude, the son is a distinguished guest, he collided with a distinguished guest, be careful that the master of the family comes back and will skin you and eat meat!"
The little boy scolded coldly, and the red water snake seemed to understand human words, and its high-spirited head immediately lowered, like a child who had done something wrong.
Another child explained to Lishu apologetically: "Childe is not strange, although Lingxiao is afraid of seeing people, but it is the first time to take the initiative to attack this matter, maybe Lingxiao likes Childe!" ”
The scene in front of him was so strange that Ling Shu didn't know how to answer.
Thinking that this Yuntong Villa seems to be unremarkable, but in fact it seems to be a hidden mystery, just saying that this huge villa is handed over to two children to take care of is already secretly pitiful.
At this time, it seems that with the skills of the two children, it is obvious that they are good at martial arts, and they have such attainments at a young age, and they will definitely not be idle in the future. And this water snake called Lingxiao is really weird, not only can it understand people's words, but the color of this water snake alone is also rare.
"Nothing!"
Thinking about it, what does all this have to do with him? After a short rest, you can excuse yourself to leave, and you can rush back a day earlier.
I secretly made a decision in my heart, and then I slowly spoke.
Another boy stepped forward to open the door, the layout inside was not luxurious, but it was clean and tidy, just when the detachment general looked at the room, the little boy next to him said again: "Childe take a break first, let's go see how the small kitchen is prepared?" Today, there is a visit from the son, so naturally you can't be sloppy! ”
"Thank you!"
Handed over the letterhead and gifts in his hand to the child, and without too much polite greetings, he walked into the room and closed the door.
The scene just now also made Li Shu uneasy, and after checking that there was nothing suspicious in the room, he lay directly on the bed.
I didn't feel tired in order to hurry before, but now that I relaxed, the soreness in my body suddenly came, and after a while, sleepiness hit, and I fell asleep groggily.
"Childe? Son? ”
The boy outside the door did not leave, until he heard no more noise in the room, a cup of tea, the boy called softly.
It's just that for the sound outside the door, Lishu didn't seem to hear it, and he still fell asleep deeply.
The two children glanced at each other and gently pushed the door open, but the alienation who fell asleep on the bed remained indifferent. The two children walked quickly to the detachment, and confirmed each other with strict expressions, only to see one of them gently pull the rope on the side of the bed.
The bed slabs were folded to both sides, and the alienation that had slept on the bed fell with it, and in a blink of an eye, the bed returned to normal, as if the scene had never happened before.
The two children also turned around and left the room, raising the question of whether the alien had really been here.
※※※
"Cheng'er, you have to believe that your father has not done anything to be sorry for the other four countries, and has never done anything that violates the alliance oath, if it were not for the traitor, your father would not have died unjustly!"
"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?"
"Cheng'er, you have to live well, if one day you can avenge the wrongs of your father, your mother and your father can also laugh at Jiuquan!"
"Mother, don't leave Cheng'er behind, okay? Cheng'er is so afraid, mother concubine.... Mother Princess...."
"Cheng'er.... Hurry up, you are the only bloodline of Wuzhou Country, and the mother concubine does not expect you to revive Wuzhou Kingdom, just ask you to be safe and sound! Let's go..."
"Don't, Princess... Mother! ”
At this time, in an underground ice cellar, there was a man in white obscenity lying on the ice bed, his long hair was spread out, and his bewitching face was impeccable.
In the ice cellar, the cold was pressing, but the man on the ice bed did not see any trembling movements, but a layer of sweat beads on his forehead. The frowning brows and the constant shaking of the head indicate that the man does not seem to be sleeping peacefully at this time, as if he is in a dream.
If you look closely, you will find that in the middle of the man's eyebrows, there is a faint bloom of strange light, which is slowly condensing into a red dot, with a blood-like halo, imprinted on the man's eyebrows, gradually clear.
In the dream, in the palace, the sea of fire continues, and the troops of other countries can be seen everywhere, burning and plundering everywhere they pass.
A boy looked helplessly at all this in front of him, teary-eyed, but unable to do anything. The woman in front of her in a gorgeous dress, her beautiful face, and two tears showed her helplessness at this time, and it revealed her determination, but the only thing that she didn't see was the panic and fear that should have appeared on her face.
The woman seemed to have taken a great poison, and in the middle of her words, she spat blood from her mouth and swallowed her last breath unwillingly, but the delicate Bao Yi also slipped from the boy's hand.
This is the first time that the boy known as Cheng'er has experienced life and death, and for him, that vague concept seems a little cruel to face at this time, but it is also irretrievable.
A man next to him strode forward, and he couldn't refuse to take the crying boy away, although the little hand still wanted to hug the lifeless mother again, but the man's pace made him almost unable to resist.
As the beautiful woman said, the boy spent his life peacefully, but he failed to find out the grievances of his father and mother.
Until the end of his life, he failed to achieve his wish, and finally turned into a strong obsession in the string of prayer beads he left for his descendants, hoping that the descendants could fulfill his last wish.
I hope that the descendants who get this rosary can remember the grievances of their ancestors, and one day they will be able to avenge the grievances of their ancestors and clear up the bloody shame of the year!
At the end of the scene in the dream, only these four sentences finally appeared in the picture, and the two lines of tears of the man on the ice bed slowly fell from the corners of his eyes, as if he was moved.
