Volume 1 Ancestral Hall, Chapter 40
"Who are you?" A clear and pleasant voice sounded,
Suddenly turned around and saw that it was a woman with a delicate face, dressed in white, with a pure spiritual aura, which looked incompatible with this mortal dust, and she was looking at him with a puzzled expression.
Mu Lin looked at the woman and said, "I'm a new recruit from the General's Mansion."
The woman's gaze turned, first at him, and then at the basket of flowers in his hand.
She stepped forward and looked at him, "So what are you doing here?" ”
Mu Lin looked at her gaze, glanced at the flower basket in his hand again, and moved back, "I...... I'm here to deliver flowers to Miss," he shook the flower basket in his hand again, signaled, and immediately put the flower basket behind him.
Poof!
The woman covered her mouth and smiled, "You don't have to be so afraid, I won't snatch the flower basket in your hand"
"I ...... I didn't mean that," Mu Lin said, but his hand was still behind him.
Looking at his movements, the woman smiled, this time she didn't cover her mouth, so Mu Lin saw it clearly.
It seemed that he hadn't seen such a smile for a long time, and Mu Lin couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face" The woman saw Mu Lin's eyes and said
Hearing this, Mu Lin immediately reacted, and when he thought of what he had just seen, he couldn't help but blush slightly.
"No, I...... I don't, I" he was a little incoherent.
Seeing his hurried explanation, the woman smiled slightly, "Okay, okay, you don't have to explain, don't you still have to send flowers to Miss?"
As if remembering that he had something to do, Mu Lin hurriedly said, "Okay, I won't talk to you, I'm going to find Miss, she should be in a hurry for a while" After speaking, he ran away and left.
Seeing him like this, the woman smiled and muttered, "What an interesting person."
Coming to a door, Mu Lin muttered to himself, "Where is this young lady?" I've searched all over the place, but I haven't found it," and was about to walk around again, when I turned around and found the woman from before.
The woman stepped forward, her eyes still glancing at him first, and then fixing on the flower basket.
"Why do you keep staring at my flower basket?"
"Then why do you keep keeping the flower basket behind you?"
"Because I like flowers, too!" The woman said.
"This, this flower basket is for Miss" Mu Lin tightened his hand in the jacquard basket.
"Then you don't think this will work," the woman said mysteriously, as she stepped forward.
"What!" He asked, a little curious.
"You quietly give me a flower in the flower basket, so Miss she can't find it, she won't look at it carefully"
"No way!" The hand that placed the flower basket behind tightened.
"Alright then," the woman made a look of pity.
"Did you find Miss?" The woman asked
"No, I've searched all over the yard, but I haven't found Miss"
"Then you don't know how to ask people?" The woman said
"Miss's yard is very cold, I've been here for a long time, but I haven't seen anyone, how can I ask someone?"
When the woman heard him say this, she immediately said, "But you have seen people, and more than once."
"No, I really didn't see it," Mu Lin said, and immediately reacted and looked at the woman, who looked at him with a smile.
"I didn't mean that, I mean I didn't see anyone else except you," Mu Lin quickly explained
"But that's not what you just said?" The woman said again
"I ......," Mu Lin was speechless
"Then you can ask me now," the woman looked at him
"Oh, then may I ask if you have seen Miss?"
"Nope!"
“……”
"But I do know a place that Miss frequents,"
"Where?"
"Then come with me, and I'll take you," said the woman.
Then Mulin followed behind her.
Along the way, Mu Lin would look up at her quietly from time to time, but quickly buried his head again.
In front, she noticed the anomaly in the back, turned around and looked, and the two eyes met.
"Why do you keep looking at me?" The woman asked
"I ......" Mu Lin just raised his head and was about to take another look, but he thought that as soon as he looked up, he saw the woman who turned around, and it was really unclear now.
When he looked up and was about to say something, he found that the woman had stopped in front of a rockery.
"What's wrong?" Mulin asked
"We're here!"
"But there's only one rockery here?" Mu Lin said suspiciously
"You have to promise me that no one can say anything about what you see today," the woman looked at him
"Okay, I won't say," Mu Lin promised
"I never bring anyone here, not even my father," the woman whispered
Mu Lin had a strange look on his face, but he could hear it very clearly, so he felt strange.
"Alright, you come with me," the woman walked forward.
"Hey......" He was about to say something, when he saw the woman walking towards the side of the rockery, and disappeared into the rockery.
He followed, close to the rockery only to find that there is a half-man small hole on the side of the rockery, if you don't look very carefully, you really can't find it, there are many holes in the rockery, you can find it at a glance, but this hole is a little bigger than other holes, but only the smaller ones can enter, even he took a lot of effort to get in.
Entering the rockery, first have to walk through a narrow passage, compared to the woman, Mu Lin's physique is relatively strong, and it takes a little effort to walk in the passage, fortunately, it didn't take long to walk around and become wider, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
There was no longer a woman's figure in front of him, he quickened his pace, and his vision became dim again, and after walking for a while, he found that there was a little light in front of him, Mu Lin accelerated his pace, walked towards the light, and when he turned around, the light was dazzling, and after returning to normal, Mu Lin was shocked.
What kind of place is this?
It was like being in the starry sky, surrounded by hundreds of millions of lights, and it was like being in the sea, the surroundings were fantastic, and every time he took a step, he could feel the feeling of stepping into the void, and he walked forward, only to find that thin figure.
"You know what? When I first discovered this place, my heart was so excited, because I felt that different from the outside, but I couldn't explain it, I thought about such a place, they might have found it a long time ago, but gradually I realized that this place is only known to me, and slowly, this place has become a secret place for me, whenever I am in a bad mood, I will come here, because only here, my heart will become peaceful,"
She turned around, and there was a sadness in her whole body
"I don't know why I brought you here, and I don't know if you're a bad person, but from the moment I saw you, I felt that I should trust my instincts, and my instincts told me from the beginning that you are a good person, a good person who is different from many people"
She turned away,
A mist welled up in his eyes.
"This world is so strange, people who want to die can't die, but people who want to live can't live," said this, and memories came to her mind.
It was a woman who looked the same as her, but was more mature and vicissitudes than her.
Her life experience is not miserable, she was sold by her parents to a rough man who was a soldier, that rough man didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and every time she came back from a battle, she would torture her, and it was okay to win the battle, but once she lost the battle, she would be reduced to a vent.
At that time, she really wanted to die, but she couldn't die, once she died, her parents would be in danger, even if his parents treated her like that, she still wanted to protect her parents.
So she insisted like this, obviously wanting to die, but trying to live.
Many years later, the rough man became a general, and it was the time when the scenery was good, but the woman had experienced many years of wind and frost and was no longer in her prime.
By this time, the general had gradually developed a dislike for her.
began to think about how to get rid of her, but at that time she was already pregnant, and she had thoughts about birth, and after giving birth to a child, the general's killing intent towards her became more and more obvious, but he was helpless, just thinking about how long he could live for a while, watching his child grow up.
But just three years after the birth of the child, the general killed her.
She gave birth to a girl to the general, and since she died, the general has placed a separate compound for the child, and has not arranged for anyone to take care of it, leaving the child here alone, but since then he has rarely taken care of the child.
It's just that some flowers will be sent to her on any festivals, but her experience is known to the people in the General's Mansion that no one wants to send her flowers, so for many years, they have been put at the gate of the courtyard for her and let her get them herself.
"Every bit of light you see in this space is the result of every flower over the years."
She looked at Mu Lin, "You know what? The moment I saw you enter the courtyard gate, I was very surprised, I have gone out to pick it up myself for so many years, and I didn't expect someone to bring it in today."
"Thank you so much, thank you for not disliking it, I have no intention of living in this world anymore, I brought you here today, I just don't want this place to be unknown after me"
At this time, Mu Lin, who had been silent, spoke.
"Although the world is chaotic and people's hearts are bad, not everyone is like this, and there are still some people who are kind-hearted and yearn for peace, hoping that one day the world will be healthy, the people will be peaceful, there will be no war, and everyone will live a peaceful and happy life."
"Really?" The woman said
"Really! These people have been working in silence all the time, just out of sight."
The woman's empty eyes were instantly filled with hope and asked. "Are you one of these people?"
Mu Lin looked at her, nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
"I promise you, one day, the world will be peaceful, and I will definitely take you to see a different world when the time comes" Mu Lin showed a resolute look
Looking at him, the woman seemed to see light and hope in the darkness.
The woman said, "Then can you take me away?" ”
"There's still some things to do, you wait for me to finish, I'll come back and take you away if I have the chance"
"Okay, I believe in you, I'm here waiting for you to come back"
"Good!" Mulin put the flower basket in her hand and said, "I'm leaving."
He hadn't taken a few steps before he was grabbed from behind.
He turned to look at the woman, only to see the woman take out a silk silk from her bosom and touch it with her hand, "This is the only gift my mother left me, and the only thing I think of her, whenever I am about to forget what she looks like, I will take out this silk and look at it, because it will remind me of what she is like"
She handed the silk to Mu Lin, "Now I will give it to you, and you will be my thoughts in the future."
Mu Lin glanced at her, then took the silk silk and received it in his arms, "I will definitely keep it well"
Mulin took out a pocket version of the arrow from his arms, he stroked it with affection, and then handed it to the woman, "This is what my best brother made for me, he is gone, so this arrow means a lot to me, and I will give it to you too"
The woman reached out and took it, "I'll keep it"
"It's time for me to go" Mu Lin turned around, only to hear the words from the beautiful woman behind him
"My name is Yun'er!"
"Mulin!"
