The woman's energy gradually withdrew from her body with this wailing, she was originally exhausted, but because she couldn't let go of her child, she was loosened by the poor god of death and the chains around her neck.

Now that the chains of death have tightened again, she is truly leaving this world.

The woman's tearful face was reflected in the eyes of the Snow Maiden, and the young Snow Maiden felt at a loss, and she did not know how to continue to comfort her mother.

The woman's thin hands tightly grasped the snow girl's thin shoulders, and the last words she said to her daughter were: "Daughter, mother loves you!" You must live well, you must live well......"

After saying that, the woman's hands gradually let go of the Snow Girl's shoulders, her eyes were full of worry about her daughter's future, and there was not the slightest fear of death.

Looking at her mother who fell to the ground, Snow Maiden's immature throat kept crying out for her mother, but the woman never got up again to look at her dear daughter.

The precocious Snow Maiden naturally knew what death was, and she also knew that she would never see her mother again, and at this moment her heart did not have time to worry about her future, but was occupied by a great sadness.

She lay on her mother's cold corpse and wept, and the childish voice broke through the dilapidated hut, alarming the neighbors, who sighed when they heard the cry, knowing that it was the Snow Maiden's mother who had died.

They all come to the Snow Maiden's house to prepare for the funeral of the Snow Maiden's mother.

......

The funeral was presided over by the village chief, and this man in his forties was acting mischiefly in the village because he had seven or eight sons.

With a wave of his hand, he asked people to kill the two fat and strong pigs who were carefully cared for by the Snow Maiden and her mother, and then came to the Snow Maiden himself, looking compassionate.

"Girl, although your mother is gone, we will help you organize your mother's funeral, but you don't have anything at home, so you can only kill those two pigs, make a coffin for your mother, and then entertain the others."

The Snow Girl looked at the man who was talking numbly, but shrunk her body and didn't speak.

She didn't like this man because she saw with her own eyes that this man wanted to bully her mother when she was doing laundry.

Seeing that the snow girl didn't speak, the village chief said: "I'm afraid this girl has become a fool." ”

Then he turned around and left, commanding people to kill the pigs, as the village head, it was not too much to take away the two pigs' hind legs.

In this way, the Snow Girl squatted in the corner, numbly watching the two big fat pigs she had carefully tended to be slaughtered in the cheerful appearance of a bunch of men.

He watched numbly as the men wrapped their mothers in mats and buried them in a shallow pit, and then went back to eat the freshly made pork with excitement on their faces.

Those people ate very happily, one by one scrambling, and it was rare for them to eat a bite of pork on weekdays, so even if their stomachs were stuffed with food, they had to stick the last piece of pork into the fast and put it in their mouths.

One by one, they were like a festival, and their faces were full of fanatical incarnation of the most devout believers in pork, and they skinned and bone-dried the two pigs and ate them clean.

The Snow Maiden looked at all this numbly, and after her sadness, her heart was full of confusion, she didn't know where she should go......

Like her, there are also big tengu dozens of kilometers away.

At that time, he was not a great tengu, but a raven, and he had to fight with dozens of companions, through constant fighting and growth, and finally became the leader of the raven, the great tengu.

As the most powerful of this generation and the most promising to become a great tengu, he is naturally the public enemy of the other Rakutengu.

Today, he was ambushed by seven companions, and after a fierce battle, he finally got rid of the entanglement of his companions, and he hid in a tree hole to avoid being tracked by his companions.

It's a pity that by coincidence, there is a big bear that has been an adult living in the hollow of the tree where he is hiding, and it is a big bear with a trace of lord blood, which can hurt him, so he can only fight with this big bear.

The other tengus who were attracted by the sound were naturally happy to see this scene.

But at that time, the Great Tengu was not only powerful, but also had a good brain, and shouted to his companions, "Come and help, kill him and make a blanket for the lord." Then he stepped back.

The other tengu didn't understand what was going on, and they had already been miserably harmed by the great tengu's trick to lead the water to the east.

The big bear directly abandoned the big tengu, and the other crow tengu pounced.

The sharp claws directly split a small crow tengu into several sections, and then proceeded to cull the other crows.

And the Great Tengu took the opportunity to flee far away, looking at the stump of his companion, he felt lost and empty, not knowing if it was worth it for their kind to kill each other.

But at this time, he should be more worried about himself, because he is seriously injured and it is very difficult for him to even fly at the moment.

Hungry and cold, he smelled the fragrance wafting from afar, and began to fly slowly in the direction where the fragrance came from.

......

The night wood crept in, and those people ate to their heart's content, leaving a mess behind.

The Snow Maiden, on the other hand, was wearing thin clothes and struggling to clean the yard with a broom tied to tree branches, but her thin body was holding a broom about the size of herself, which looked very ridiculous.

After cleaning the yard, her stomach rumbled.

After her mother left, she didn't eat a drop of water that day, and the kind old cook secretly left her a large pot of pork, but the Snow Girl didn't have the slightest appetite.

The pork that the villagers ate was very fragrant, and she only felt so sick that she wanted to vomit when she looked at it.

She picked up a few nests that had been gnawed a few bites and put them there, and ate them in large gulps, tears streaming down her cheeks as she ate.

The cold and hard nest head was swallowed into her throat by her with this warm and bitter tears.

"Plop!"

There was a sound of debris falling to the ground at the pigsty.

This made the Snow Girl instantly vigilant, if the two cute big fat pigs were there before, it was normal for there to be a noise, but those two big stupid pigs had already been killed.

The Snow Maiden took a broom and carefully ran to the pigsty to check the situation, only to see that a hole had been smashed into the roof of the pigsty, and the moonlight shone through the hole.

Directly below the hole, in the moonlight, a creature in a monk's robe with a pair of black wings curled up and fell asleep.

Through the bright moonlight, the Snow Maiden saw each other's faces clearly.

In the distance, the head was covered with black feathers, a small sharp horn on the forehead, large eyes underneath, and a small beak.

The little girl immediately recognized that it was a crowgen living in the mountains, of the same race as the lord, and that she had heard the name of this creature before.

Originally, she wanted to call the people of the village to come and deal with the little one, but when she saw the curled up body of the crowtengu, she whispered 'Mommy'.

Snow Maiden hesitated, if she called the people of the village, I was afraid that this crow tengu would be beaten to death by the people of the village, just like her own two big fat pigs.

Although the adults said that the crowtengu was a terrifying creature, looking at this crowtengu curled up like herself, called 'Mommy', the little girl felt sympathy.

So she made a bold decision, she was ready to take care of this little tengu.

In order to prevent the villagers from coming to her house to see the crowtengu, the little girl was going to move him into the house.

Fortunately, at this time, the crow tengu was in a juvenile state, with a body of less than one meter, and the body was very light, otherwise the little girl really would not have been able to move it to the house.

Rao was like this, and the little girl, who had only eaten a little bit of the nest head a day, also used her strength to breastfeed, and only then moved the crow tengu into the house.

She looked at the shocking wounds on the crowtengu's body, covered her mouth so that she didn't scream, and rummaged around the house before finding some herbs to treat the wounds.

It seems that things will have to be sorted in the future, otherwise it will be too difficult to find.

The little girl thought so.

The herbs are then crushed and applied to the body of the jawtengu.

The crowtengu felt like he was back in his son's nest, wrapped in his mother's warm wings, which made him tense and relax slightly, and then fell asleep.

In the dream, his mother didn't yell at him fanatically: "Jiro, kill them, you are the best!" Instead, he gently wrapped himself in his wings and gently groomed himself with his beak.

"Mom."

The young tengu murmured softly.

And the little girl lying next to him hugged the young tengu, feeling the warmth from his wings, and also fell asleep.

In the dream, her mother was still alive, mowing pigweed in front of her, turning back to her from time to time with a warm smile, and she also ran towards her mother with excitement on her face......

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, the first to wake up was the Raven Tengu, and when he saw the unfamiliar environment, he immediately jumped up, and this time, the freshly healed scar on his body was torn apart again.

He couldn't help but let out a scream of pain.

The Snow Girl was also woken up by him, rubbing her sleepy eyes and saying, "Are you awake?" ”

Looking at the herbs left on his body, the intelligent Raventengu immediately understood what was happening.

"You saved me?"

"Yes, yesterday you smashed through my pigshed, I was afraid that others would find you, so I moved you to the house, you are so light." Snow Maiden said.

Maybe it's because the big tengu is about the same age as her, which makes her sad a little relieved.

"Thank you!" Raven Tengu looked around for a moment and asked, "You're the only one in your house?" ”

Speaking of this, a sad expression leaked from the Snow Maiden's face.

"My mom died yesterday, and I'm the only one left in the house."

Looking at the poor Snow Girl in front of him, Raven Tengu couldn't help but feel a little more.

Although his parents taught him that all creatures except tengu are untouchables, and humans are untouchables among untouchables, looking at the little girl in front of him, Raven Tengu felt for the first time that what his parents said was not entirely right.

"Since you saved me, then you are my savior, and when I become a great tengu in the future, if anyone bullies you, you will report my name."

The future Great Tengu said proudly.

Looking at the little girl's adoring eyes, he couldn't help but listen to his chest.

At this moment, his stomach suddenly rumbled.

He looked at the little girl in embarrassment.

The Snow Maiden smiled like a flower: "In the future, Lord Tengu, I'll invite you to dinner first." ”

Looking at the Snow Maiden's innocent smile, Raven Tengu couldn't help but look at his unangry stomach, there was no way, he hadn't eaten for a long time.

At this time, the little girl's stomach also gurgled, and the two children looked at each other, as if they had encountered something very funny, and their stomachs hurt from laughter.

The Snow Maiden said proudly: "Open the meal!" ”

Then, after tinkering in the kitchen for a while, the crowtengu smelled the mouth-watering aroma of the room, and remembered that he had been attracted by this aroma yesterday, so he looked forward to the next meal.

......

The days that followed flew by, and eight years passed in a blink of an eye, and the crow tengu had grown up at this time, and the snow girl had successfully grown into a big girl.

The Snow Maiden had no friends in the village, and the only friend was the Rakutengu who came to him with an injury for a long time, and he had a very imposing name: Kirayama Jirobo.

On this day, Snow Girl came to the back mountain again, which is the place where she and Jiro agreed to meet every week.

This time, Raven Tengu did not have any scars on his body, and he told Yukiu that he was about to fulfill his promise and become a great tengu, and when he said this, Jiro's face was very proud.

He has always been steady in front of his parents and clansmen, and only in front of the Snow Girl will he reveal this youthful appearance in front of him.

"I may not be able to come back for a while, I have to go through the throne ceremony, and when the time comes, as long as I win, I will be able to become a real Great Tengu, and then no one will dare to bully you again." When he said this, the already grown Raven Tengu had a serious face.

"Okay, don't worry, you should be careful not to get hurt. When you come back, I'll make something delicious for you. ”

Although worried, Snow Girl was still very considerate and didn't ask much, she didn't want her friends to have too much pressure.

Looking at the Snow Maiden's concerned face, Raven Tengu felt that his face was faintly hot, but fortunately he had a layer of black feathers on his face, otherwise I am afraid that the Snow Maiden would be able to see a ruddy face like blood,

"Don't worry, I'm very powerful, the throne ceremony is very simple for me." Raven Tengu said lightly.

But he knew in his heart that the other two opponents of the throne ceremony were extremely difficult, and they were by no means as easy as he said, but in front of the Snow Maiden, he couldn't help but be reckless.

When I become a great tengu, I will marry you.

He hid this sentence in his heart, and if he didn't say it, no one would know.

On that day, the clear spring in the mountains sounded, the breeze was smooth, the sky was blue, and the years were quiet.

The two of them made an appointment, and when Jiro came over intact, Yukimi would make a bowl of steaming noodles and meet him.

But they didn't expect that Jiro was greeted by the body of the Snow Girl, whose body temperature gradually dissipated in a pool of blood.

......

Fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls are slim and slim, and their wrists are frosty and snowy, which is the most beautiful age.

As the Snow Mother feared, in this world, unprotected beauty is a sin!

Today's Snow Girl can be said to be the most beautiful scenery in the village.

The simple clothes on the body can not hide the light of the girl, and the red rope tied on her hand also ties the hearts of many young people, although the dress on the body is not gorgeous and expensive, but it is clean and tidy, so that the girl looks like a plum blossom in the wax moon, a smile and a smile, are breathtaking.

When the old people in the village saw her, they all put down their burdens and brushed their beards, and when the young people saw him, they couldn't help but tidy up their clothes.

He who plows the land forgets that he is plowing, and he who hoes forgets that he is hoeing; So much so that they didn't finish the farm work, and when they came back, they complained to each other, just because they looked carefully at the beauty of the Snow Maiden.

Many young people in the village pursued the Snow Girl, but they were politely rejected by the Snow Girl, and whenever someone told her to tell her a husband, she said that she had a sweetheart.

The young people in the village were heartbroken, but the young people in the village refused again and again, and she didn't see who her sweetheart was.

So the young people in the village were full of thought again, and of course, some people maliciously slandered her, saying that she was fascinated by the monsters in the mountains.

For these remarks, Snow Girl turned a blind eye.

But God did not let go of this ill-fated little girl.

The village chief of the village has seven sons, and he is a bully in the village, and everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak out when they run rampant in the village on weekdays.

He has three sons who are about the same age as Snow Maiden, and they have not married a daughter-in-law so far, and they salivate when they look at the young and beautiful Snow Maiden, and their bully father and brothers set a bad example for them.

For some things that cannot be obtained by normal means, they choose to use tough means.

This time, they set their sights on the Snow Maiden.

One night, three fierce brothers came to the door of the Snow Maiden, and they decided that since the Snow Maiden did not match anyone, the brothers would go together.

Looking at the closed door of the Snow Maiden's house, they patted hard.

The Snow Maiden in the house picked up a pair of scissors and shouted to the door, "Who?" ”

The three brothers outside were silent, and seeing that the Snow Girl was delaying the door, their actions of slamming the door became more and more rude, and the way became more and more rude, and finally they directly kicked the door hard.

The decaying gate could not withstand this ravage, and it was destroyed with a creaking sound.

The door can block the prying eyes of the outside world, but it can't stop the malice of people with intentions.

The neighbors were woken up and got up, and the village chief learned of his son's behavior and took the other sons to the gate of the Snow Maiden's house.

They are not here to dissuade their children (brothers), but to protect them and let them do their own thing without being disturbed.

"Whatever you do, fuck me off! From now on, this will be my daughter-in-law, so don't be nosy. The village chief said to the people outside in a vicious voice.

The village chief has been accumulating power for a long time, and there are several sons who are fierce and vicious, with big shoulders and round waists, and the people in the village naturally dare not step forward, including some young people who are usually attentive to the Snow Girl.

Listening to the exclamation of the Snow Girl in the courtyard, everyone did not dare to speak.

What's more, there is a malicious curse in my heart: let you not live with me, now you deserve to be ruined, bah, slut!

Seeing that everyone did not dare to step forward, the village chief's family smiled proudly, it seemed that they were still majestic in the village.

The village chief turned his head and shouted into the courtyard, "Little rabbits, it's not good to land!" Daughter-in-law, your husbands are knocking on your door, what are you afraid of, don't you open the door quickly. ”

Then he drank back from everyone: "This is our family matter, so I won't worry about it, and I will invite my father and fellow villagers to drink our family's wedding wine another day." ”

Everyone laughed as if they had found a staircase.

"It must be, this is a great event for our village."

"I said why is it so noisy, it turned out to be picking up the bride, no wonder."

"Then we won't bother, let's disperse, let's drink the village chief's wedding wine another day."

......

Everyone dispersed one after another, and the three evildoers in the courtyard saw the majesty of their father, and they were even more proud, so they were even more unscrupulous, picked up things and smashed them at the door of the Snow Girl's house.

The snow girl in the house saw the villagers scattering one after another, her heart was like ashes, and she couldn't help but shed tears, thinking, "Jiro, where are you?" I may never see you again. ”

At this moment, a hundred miles away, a crimson meteor flew across the earth, and inside it was a young man with wings on his back, wearing a red mask, wearing a monk's robe, and flowing white hair, his face was full of excitement and anxiety.

This is the Hirayama Jirobo who succeeded in becoming the Great Tengu, who won the Throne Trial and was successfully crowned as the King and became the Great Tengu, and after the coronation ceremony, before he had time to accept the blessings of the clan, he couldn't wait to go to that small mountain village and prepare to share his joy with the Snow Maiden.

But for some reason, there was a hint of uneasiness in his heart, which made him wave his newly evolved wings even more desperately, making him go to the small mountain village faster to meet the girl who cooked noodles for him.

......

The old door was also overwhelmed, and was rudely broken open by the three brothers.

Looking at the beautiful Snow Maiden, the brothers couldn't help but breathe a little heavily.

They quarreled again over the question of who would go first, and finally, under the indignant gaze of the old man, they decided to follow their age.

The Snow Girl screamed desperately, and the scissors in her hand waved wildly, cutting through the old girl's face, which aroused the old girl's bestiality, and he slapped the Snow Girl in the face, making the Snow Girl lose the ability to resist.

Listening to the sound of the clothes being torn in the house, and the sobbing of the Snow Maiden, the village chief who was listening at the door leaked a wicked smile.

He also coveted the appearance of the Snow Maiden, and when these little cubs had played, he would also give it a try, and he and the sons next to him looked at each other, and they all smiled.

They all want a piece of the pie.

But there was a sudden change in the house, and the fifth person who rushed to the front suddenly let out a miserable scream.

Snow Girl picked up the scissors and stabbed them in his thigh, causing him to bleed.

The village chief and his other sons hurried in, and when they saw dark red blood flowing from his son's thighs on the ground, he was furious when he looked at the snow girl in ragged clothes and holding scissors.

"Slut, you dare to fight back."

As he spoke, he was ready to step forward to teach the Snow Maiden a lesson, and let his sons see what professionalism is.

Looking at the eight wolf-like men in front of her, Snow Girl smiled resolutely.

"Jiro, it looks like we'll never see each other again, you have to take care of yourself."

As she spoke, the Snow Girl did not hesitate to poke her throat with scissors, and a large stream of blood gushed out from the wound, and the Snow Girl's snow-white skin was dyed with a large patch of red, like the white snow soaked in red ink, and like the cinnabar splashed on the snow-white rice paper, more like the blood moon that gradually changed color.

The delicate body of the Snow Maiden fell heavily to the ground, making a heavy winter sound.

She kept coughing up blood in her mouth, with regret and unwillingness in her eyes, she slowly lost her life.

"Nope!

！ ”

A sound like thunder, resounding through the sky, like the first thunder in the spring sting, echoed between heaven and earth. There was a bone-chilling coldness and pain in that voice, like a demon crawling out of the depths of the Nine Shadows and Ten Earths, which made those who heard it creepy and distracted.

A huge wave of sound came from afar, alarming the ravens who lived on the mountain, and they heard the king's anger and anguish, causing the entire mountain to hiss.

For a moment, the ravens on Mt. Hira poured out of their nests, like a black torrent connecting the mountains and the sky, densely packed and scrambling to fly towards the place where the king was.

Looking up from the ground, countless black crows and tengu flew towards the small mountain village where the Snow Maiden was located like a black curtain that covered the sky and the sun.

The belated Tengu looked at the broken door of the Snow Maiden and hurriedly broke in, only to see the Snow Maiden slowly falling to the ground.

His eyes became scarlet as blood in an instant, his body quickly swelled to more than five meters, and instantly broke through the roof, his face was as hideous as a blood-killing rakshasa, so frightened that the village chief's family fell to the ground, and feces and urine flowed together.

He didn't care about the village chief's family next to him, but came to the front of the Snow Maiden, with a huge body, but the movements were disproportionately gentle, and he slowly put the Snow Maiden in his hand.

Although the appearance of Jirobo has changed greatly with Hirayama, the Snow Girl still recognizes it the same, this is her only friend since she was a child, it is the reason why she rejects everyone, it is his... Jiro.

Looking at Jiro in front of her, the unwillingness in the eyes of the Snow Girl slowly turned into joy, her mouth opened and closed, but she never made a sound.

She wanted to touch the face of her sweetheart in front of her, but in the end her hands could only hang weakly.

Then little by little in the hands of the big tengu, she lost her temperature, and at the end of her life, she walked away with a smile and apologies.

The Great Tengu knew that what the Snow Maiden had not been able to say was - I'm sorry!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry for what?

I'm sorry I didn't spend more time with myself, I'm sorry I didn't greet myself properly, and I'm sorry I didn't make myself a steaming meal as agreed.

Tears filled the eyes of the newborn lord.

I'm the one who should say I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I didn't protect you, I'm sorry I wasn't there for you when you needed it, I'm sorry — I'm sorry I didn't know you lived in this hell and didn't save you sooner!

"The Ronin Who Started from Douluo"

But what I can do for you now is to bury this hell for you!

The Great Tengu raised his head to the sky and roared, and the grief in it was self-evident, and the Raven Tengu in the distance now picked up speed again, flapping their wings and flying towards them.

At this time, the people in the village were so frightened that they shrank into the quilt and did not dare to come forward.

And the village chief's family kept kowtowing to the big tengu, hoping to escape.

But the Great Tengu did not care about them in the slightest, and he was immersed in grief.

Fist-sized tears rolled down and fell to the ground and smashed into deep mud puddles.

At this time, all the ravens of Mt. Hira rushed over, and they were hovering in the sky like a tornado, and the king's wrath they could wash away with the blood of their enemies, but the king's grief made them at a loss.

They circled in the sky, their hoarse cries coming together like thunder.

The beasts within a radius of hundreds of miles all felt this sense of oppression, and they hid in the holes one after another and did not dare to move, even the insects did not dare to chirp, and only the crows were left in the whole world.

"None of them will be left!" The voice of the Great Tengu was filled with endless killing intent, as if the evil spirits of hell were whispering in his ears.

The Raventengus, who had been given the order, finally found a way to vent their anger on the king's behalf, and like a black tidal wave, they completely wiped out this small village with a population of only a few dozen households.

Among them, the village chief's family was pecked off little by little by countless crows and tengus, and died an extremely painful death.

There was not a single living hole in the village, and even the earthworms in the ground were dug up and cracked in half.

......

Later, the Snow Maiden was sent to the top of the snowy mountain by the Great Tengu and begged the Snow Maiden at that time to turn herself into a new generation of Snow Maiden, but at the cost...

The price is to lose your name!

And what did the Great Tengu lose?

Snow Maiden doesn't know, and she can't remember.

I only know that later, the later Great Tengu in my memory never changed into a human form again.

The Snow Maiden woke up from her memories, and Yin looked at her in surprise.

It turned out that unconsciously, his eyes were filled with tears, and he turned into crystal clear ice beads that fell to the ground and shattered, like a thin diamond, bright and lonely.
