Li Zhitong shook her head: "I'm fine." ”

"That's good."

At this time, Feng Zimo walked to a tree next to the two of them and sat down, gasping for breath, he was indeed tired today.

I don't know if it's because Feng Zimo is covered with the smell of blood or what, Li Zhitong was very afraid of his appearance and hid behind Huo Qiushi.

Seeing this scene, Huo Qiushi wanted to laugh a little, but thinking of the current situation, she still held back her smile. She touched Li Zhitong's head and said, "Tongtong is not afraid, my brother is very good." ”

Huo Qiushi walked up to Feng Zimo, handed him his handkerchief, and said, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, don't worry." Feng Zimo took the handkerchief and wiped the blood on his face. His expression at this time couldn't tell what emotion it was, but he could guess it without asking Huo Qiushi.

"I know how you're feeling right now, and I've been through the loss of my mother, so I understand you. But things have happened irretrievably, and no matter how sad they are, it's useless. If you're really uncomfortable, cry hard, I'm not going to laugh at you, but you're going to have to cheer me up when you're done. You're Hitomi's only reliance in this world now, and you can't do it if you don't cheer up. Huo Qiushi sat down, patted Feng Zimo's shoulder, and said.

Feng Zimo nodded and said, "Qiu Shi, you take her back to the city first, I have to go back, I can't let my mother expose her corpse to the wilderness." ”

Before Huo Qiushi could answer, Li Zhitong said, "I'm going too!" ”

Feng Zimo glanced at his half-sister and said, "Don't make trouble, children." ”

"I'm not messing around! I know my dad and mom are gone, and I want to see them one last time. Li Zhitong said, tears streaming down her big eyes.

Feng Zimo was stunned, he originally thought that Li Zhitong was a little kid who didn't understand anything, but now it seems that she is much more sensible than he thinks.

"I'm going with me too, we're here together, and of course we're going back together, and I'll be able to help take care of Hitomi." Huo Qiushi said.

Feng Zimo looked at her pretty face, which was also stained with a lot of blood, and said, "I'm sorry Qiu Shi, this is obviously my own business, but it put you in danger." ”

"This is my own choice, and you didn't force me, why say I'm sorry?"

……

At dusk.

The two returned to Shilin Village with Li Zhitong, by which time the barbarian Qin soldiers had left, and the surviving people gathered together to grieve for their dead relatives and friends.

Feng Zimo dug two pits on the hillside near Li's house, put the bodies of Feng Mu and Li Daqiang into them, and then erected a monument for them.

Looking at Feng Mu's tombstone, Feng Zimo's tears couldn't help but flow, he knelt down and kowtowed three times: "Mother, go all the way!" ”

Li Zhitong also kowtowed three times to the two tombs, and said, "Daddy, mother, Tongtong will listen to my brother's words well, don't worry." ”

After burying Feng Mu and Li Daqiang, Feng Zimo and the two washed their faces at Li's house, and each found clean clothes to change into. Their original clothes had been stained red by the blood of the barbarian Qin soldiers, and it was definitely not possible to wear them into Youzhou City. Moreover, they killed so many barbarian Qin soldiers today, and now Youzhou City may not know how to impose martial law and interrogation.

Feng Zimo picked up the sword that he had thrown on the ground before, washed it with water, and said, "Let's go." ”

"Wait a minute, Hitomi is still in the house."

As soon as Huo Qiushi's words fell, Li Zhitong walked out of the house, holding a crockpot tightly in her arms.

The two didn't ask what was in the crockpot, Huo Qiushi picked up Li Zhitong and said, "You can go now." ”

When the two of them came out of Shilin Village, it was already completely dark, and the moonlight today was very good, and there were stars in the sky as far as the eye could see.

Feng Zimo on horseback looked up at the starry sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Sister, my mother told me that after death, people will become stars and live in the sky, is it true?" Li Zhitong asked.

Huo Qiushi touched her little head and smiled, "Of course it's true." The dead did not leave us, they just stayed with us in a different way. ”

"Will the bad guys who killed their parents turn into stars?"

"No, they will go to hell to be punished for doing bad things."

"So many stars, which two stars are daddy and mother?"

"Of course it's the brightest."

Li Zhitong tilted her head and looked for a while, and then excitedly pointed to the two brightest stars: "I found it, Daddy!" Mother! Hitomi is here! ”

Li Zhitong waved her arms vigorously towards the sky.

Looking at her appearance, Feng Zimo couldn't help but smile, but then the smile turned bitter. If he could, he really wanted to be as innocent as Li Zhitong, but it was a pity that he was born with the memories and mind of his previous life, and the innocent self only existed in a very distant memory.

When returning to Youzhou City, the two of them deliberately made a big circle and entered through the south gate, after all, the two of them were holding swords, and it was easy to arouse suspicion if they entered through the north gate, and it would be troublesome if the barbarian Qin soldiers who were in Shilin Village at that time were present.

When he returned to the inn, it was almost time, and Li Zhitong was already asleep in Huo Qiushi's arms.

"Are you hungry?" Huo Qiushi asked.

Feng Zimo shook his head.

"Why don't I have a drink with you?" Huo Qiushi was still very worried about Feng Zimo.

Feng Zimo said: "Don't worry, I'm really fine." If you're hungry, I'll ask Xiao Er to get you something to eat. ”

"It's so late that you don't want to disturb other people's dreams, I have some beef jerky, just pad it."

"Okay then."

"By the way, let Hitomi sleep with me, Hitomi is a girl, it will be easier for me to take care of her at night."

"Okay."

"It's not too early, let's rest early."

The two of them each returned to their rooms, Feng Zimo lay on the bed, took out the jade bracelet, and said to himself: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Hitomi." ”

Thinking of the barbarian Qin soldiers he saw in Shilin Village during the day, and then thinking of the things he had seen in Barbarian Qin these days, Feng Zimo's hand holding the jade bracelet unconsciously clenched. At this moment, he secretly made an oath in his heart. What Feng Zimo didn't know was that the oath he made would change the history of this world.

Huo Qiushi lightly put Li Zhitong on the bed and took the crockpot out of her hand. Only then did she see what was in the crockpot. It was filled with copper coins, but there were only a few of them.

Huo Qiushi smiled, put the crockpot on the table, then took out a few pieces of beef jerky from the baggage, poured herself another glass of water, and ate it.

After a while, Huo Qiushi filled her stomach. Just as she was about to go to bed, the sound of footsteps outside the door caught her attention.

The footsteps were soft, but they sounded like there were more than one person, and they were quickly approaching Huo Qiushi's room.

Could it be that the barbarian Qin soldiers came to the door?

Huo Qiushi hurriedly came to the bedside and woke Li Zhitong awake.

Li Zhitong rubbed her eyes: "What's the matter, sister?" ”

Huo Qiushi made a booing gesture and whispered, "There are bad people." ”

"Bad guys! Sister, I'm afraid! As soon as she heard that there was a bad guy, Li Zhitong hurriedly hugged Huo Qiushi's arm in fright.

Huo Qiushi smiled: "Don't be afraid, my brothers and sisters will protect you." ”

At the same time as Huo Qiushi was packing up her baggage, Feng Zimo next door also heard footsteps.

He sat up from the bed and said secretly: Are you coming to me and Qiu Shi? What a bunch of brainless people.

Feng Zimo picked up the sword, walked to the middle of the room, jumped on his legs, and at the same time stretched out his hand to remove the burden containing the money hidden on the beams of the room. Feng Zimo thought that it was the people of the caravan outside, and came in the middle of the night to take revenge on the enemy they thought of. Anyway, this inn can't stay any longer, Feng Zimo doesn't want to be disturbed every night when he sleeps, and there is no need for him to continue to stay in Youzhou City now, so it's better to take this opportunity to leave.

Just when Feng Zimo was thinking about how not to alarm the people outside to inform Huo Qiushi, who lived next door, there was a sudden sound of fighting from next door.

Immediately afterwards, the door of Feng Zimo's room was also kicked open, and six black-clothed people rushed in like a swarm.

Not the caravan guys? Feng Zimo was stunned, now there were only seven people left in the caravan, and he couldn't send six people to kill him.

Feng Zimo quickly came back to his senses, flipped the table, and smashed it towards the people in black, and at the same time took the opportunity to draw his sword and rushed out with an arrow. Now compared to his side, Huo Qiushi next door is more important, she not only has to fight people, but also protect Li Zhitong.

Feng Zimo had just rushed out of the door, and Huo Qiushi also rushed out of the room, holding Li Zhitong with one hand, and the latter closed her eyes and hugged her scabbard tightly. The sword she was holding in her other hand was already stained with blood.

Seeing Huo Qiushi, Feng Zimo suddenly found that this girl didn't need to worry about herself at all, not only because she and Li Zhitong were unscathed, but also because she was also carrying a burden, and it seemed that the two of them had the same idea.

The two didn't have time to communicate, the man in black in the room chased out, Feng Zimo hurriedly turned around, pulled Huo Qiushi behind him, and then sealed the throat of the man in black who caught up with a sword.

"Let's go!"

As soon as the two of them arrived on the first floor, a large number of black-clothed people appeared around them and surrounded them.

Lie Yu and Zhang Wanmeng walked out, and Lie Yu said, "Two, where are you going so late?" ”

"Brother Lie, Miss Zhang, what do you mean by this?" Feng Zimo looked at them coldly, he never thought that these two people were actually in a group.

Zhang Wanmeng: "You should know very well what we want to do, hand over the map, so that you can leave alive." ”

"I don't know what map, I wonder if we have some misunderstanding?"

Zhang Wanmeng snorted coldly: "I'm still hard-mouthed, it seems that I'm going to give you a little color." ”

Zhang Wanmeng was about to draw his sword and rush towards Feng Zimo as she spoke, but was stopped by Lie Yu raising his hand.
