Chapter 210: Old Grudges (1st Update)

Hearing this time, Xie Zhiyun was stunned for a moment.

But she didn't have time to think deeply, so Wei Ying continued.

Her voice was low, with a deep sense of nostalgia and sadness, which made people's hearts tug up.

Wei Ying said: "Thirteen years ago, our family was still stationed in Taixing, that year's Shangyuan Festival, the family should have been happy, but the family suddenly received a military report, saying that there were mountain bandits who rushed into Langhuan, burning, killing and looting, and doing all kinds of evil. ”

When Xie Zhiyun heard this, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she tried her best to suppress the surprise in her heart and listen to Wei Ying's words seriously.

Wei Ying continued: "From Taixing to Langhuan, the mountain road is the closest, at that time, people have been allocated near Langhuan, your father is guarding Tongchuan, and the whip is beyond the reach, so I will rush to Langhuan from the mountain road with your uncle." ”

But the weather was particularly bad that day.

Needless to say than Wei Ying, Xie Zhiyun also knew that on that day, lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured, and it was extremely dangerous to walk on mountain roads.

Wei Ying clenched her hands tightly, and she continued; "It's just that we didn't expect that one day to be in such danger."

Speaking of this, the guard suddenly spoke: "Is it the day of the Shangyuan Festival?" I remember that day, Lang Huan's Shangyuan Festival was very lively, but it was ...... later"

Later, the mountain bandits broke through the city gate and poured into Langhuan, which was supposed to be the Shangyuan Festival for family reunion, but the blood flowed like a river, and the family was ruined.

Wei Ying nodded: "That's that day, I remember that you were less than ten years old that year, and you ran out to play, and you weren't at home." ”

The halberd bowed his head and didn't say much.

Xie Zhiyun glanced at him a little strangely, and didn't see any emotion in his eyes, before he looked at Wei Ying: "Auntie, you go on." ”

Wei Ying said: "It was already a little late when the incident happened, when we set off, it was about evening, the sun was about to set, the weather was not good that day, and we were marching in a hurry, so we chose a spacious but somewhat distant mountain road at the foot of the mountain, it was okay at first, and it began to rain heavily after two moments." ”

"It is very painful to march in the heavy rain, the soldiers will get colder and colder, and it is good not to get sick, but when the rain is getting heavier and heavier, your uncle said that you can't continue to walk, you must wait for the rain to stop, otherwise it is very dangerous to walk on the mountain road."

"At that time, Lang Huan's situation was urgent, and the people couldn't wait for the rain, so I discussed with him, and we found a village to take shelter from, so that the soldiers could also have a place to hide from the rain, so we found a small village at the foot of the mountain to temporarily shelter from the rain."

This whole story seems to be fine, but the more Xie Zhiyun listens to it, the heavier his heart becomes.

She felt that this story was somewhat familiar, as if she had heard it before, but the protagonists of the story at that time were not Wei Ying and her uncle, but her father Xie Yuan.

Xie Zhiyun felt that her palms were also a little cold, and she clenched her hands tightly, trying to calm herself down.

The Halberd felt her mood fluctuate and turned his head to look at her.

But Xie Zhiyun's face was as usual, very serious, and the guard didn't say anything.

Wei Ying was already quiet in her memories, and she didn't find Xie Zhiyun's abnormality, she continued: "Your uncle is very anxious, and he is always afraid of delaying the military situation and delaying the treatment of the people, so he can't sit still in the house, so he has to hold an umbrella and go outside to see the rain." ”

Wei Ying lowered her head, her eyes swept over her flat abdomen.

"I didn't feel well for a few days, and I always felt very cold when it rained, so I didn't go with him, and I told him at that time, come back early, dry your clothes, and don't get sick."

Wei Ying said what happened back then, and tears came to her eyes like the heavy rain that day.

"I didn't expect that one glance to be goodbye."

"A moment later, the sky cracked, and boulders and mud poured down from the mountains, and in an instant they washed away the farmland on the side of the mountain, and when I came out of my house, the sky and the earth were already dark, and everywhere there was mud and sand, and the villages and farmlands were submerged."

"The rain that day was so heavy that it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly, so I thought it was because of the heavy rain, so there was a landslide and the mud and sand slipped."

"There was something like that in the mountains, many soldiers were injured, and many soldiers were buried, and we couldn't take care of Lang Huan, so we could only send someone to Taixing to send an urgent report, so that Taixing could send someone to choose another way to rush to Lang Huan, and we would rescue the soldiers and villagers here."

"In such a natural disaster, my whole body was covered, and it was not until I heard the cries of countless people that I cheered up and arranged for people to dig up the buried people."

"In this way, we dug from midnight until early morning, and when the sun rose and shone on the earth, I could not find him."

"Brother Hui died like that."

When Wei Ying said this, she lowered her head and wiped her eyes, but she didn't shed tears.

Thirteen years have passed, everything has been wrong, and the pain of the year has slowly healed with time, but it has left a scar in the heart.

The scar no longer hurts, but it will never disappear and will remain in Wei Ying's heart forever.

Wei Ying wiped her eyes and sighed: "I really thought it was a natural disaster, and no one could do anything about it when I encountered such a natural disaster, but then I was in the rain to save people, and it was painful, so after I returned to Taixing, I had a miscarriage." ”

Wei Ying's voice was very light, but every word was blood and tears: "The loss of my lover and my child hit me very hard, but I didn't completely lose my mind at that time, until someone told me that the mudslide that day was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster." ”

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyun's heart beat wildly, she clenched her hands tightly, and raised her eyes to look back at Wei Ying's gaze.

Wei Ying's face was pale, but in addition to deep pain, there was less hatred in his eyes.

"When I was young, I was very impatient, stubborn and unpersuadable, and when someone told me it was a man-made accident, I went crazy and started to investigate."

"I have to find someone to hate, or who should my husband, my children, my soldiers, and the innocent people blame that day?"

Wei Ying looked at Xie Zhiyun and said word by word: "Later, I found out that there is a shortcut halfway up Qinghe Mountain, but that road is steep and difficult to walk, but it is the closest road from Lang Huan to Taixing." ”

"I heard that on that day, Lang Huan's family passed by above, because the road was blocked by boulders, which made people blow up the road, so it caused a mudslide."

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyun was stunned.

This story is becoming more and more familiar, although Mama Jia didn't tell her all the details at that time, but the mountain road collapsed, and the clan from Lang Huan to Taixing was all right.

Xie Zhiyun's gaze at Shang Weiying, thirteen years have passed, one has lost his mother, the other has lost his husband and children, but the heavy rain in Qinghe Mountain that day, those damn mountain bandits, or let them lose their love.

"Auntie found out, right?"

Xie Zhiyun's voice was very soft: "The clan that was going to cross the mountain road that day was the Xie clan. ”
