In a year, Xiao Wu gradually adapted to the life of a scholar, although she was still depressed in her heart, but with Zixiao and Guiyan by her company almost every day, she was no longer as indignant and grief-stricken as she was at the beginning.

The darkest moment of life, like a compulsory course given to everyone by fate, will come suddenly and unexpectedly, and no one can escape!

Thousands of miles away from the Nine Heavens, under the Nine Springs, on a bustling street in the Wuling City of the Wuling Clan, a group of children were surrounding and playing with a fool covered in mud.

A dark, chubby little boy, holding a sachet of unclear color, was teasing a fool, "Fool, fool, the sachet is here...... And then", the boy said, throwing a mess of mud in his other hand.

He opened his arms to pick up his precious sachet, only to receive a muddy body with mud on his white face.

The black fat boy laughed and leaned back and forth, "Hahaha, fool, you can take the mud too?...... Hahaha".

"Hahaha, even if you give him shit, he'll take it too, silly roe deer", another red-haired and red-faced boy also answered and laughed.

The fool wiped his face with his dirty hands, and suddenly his face turned into a muddy face, which caused a burst of laughter from several strange-looking children.

"Give...... Me!"

The fool cried with a muddy face, and was about to cry out in a hurry, stretched out his hand, bent over, and asked the fat black boy with the sachet of incense.

The boy smiled evilly, pointed to a place not far away that was full of feces, urine, dirty water, and mud, and said, "Fool, if you are there, you can ride your grandfather as a horse...... Ride a hundred laps, sir, and I'll give you this."

"Ride?...... Riding a big horse...... Hey, give it to me!"

The fool grinned, apparently this was not the first time he had been ridden as a horse, and as he spoke, the fool was pushed and shoved by the children who were laughing and watching the fun, and knelt in the foul-smelling muddy water.

The fat black boy rode triumphantly on the fool's back, and from time to time he slapped the fool's ass with a small stick, shouting, "Ride the big horse......!" Fool, hurry up, hurry up".

"Ride a big horse, hehe...... Ride a big horse", the fool smirked, crawling in the stench of dirty mud.

"Hahaha, hurry up...... Hurry up and run...... Hurry."

The onlookers kept kicking and kicking the fool, laughing and laughing. Occasionally, the adults who passed by covered their mouths and noses with disgust, disgusted by the stupidity and the stench they made.

"Fool...... See if I don't break your legs," a shrill and angry woman roared, scaring the children as if they had seen a beast.

"Give...... I!", the fool got up and chased after the fat black boy with a stinking mud.

The fat black boy turned around as he ran, and quickly threw the sachet to the woman who was shouting.

The girl bent down and picked up the sachet full of mud, her expression changed a few times, she reached out and handed it to the fool who was rolling all over her body and face covered with stinky mud, and whispered, "Okay...... Take it".

The fool took the sachet with a smirk and hugged the sachet tightly in his arms like a baby, "Hehe, I'm back...... It's back!".

The person who came was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old woman, with thick eyebrows and big eyes on her bronzed face, and a heroic aura all over her body. She looked at the fool with anger and distress in her eyes for a long time, sighed heavily, suppressed her anger, and said in a deep voice, "Go, go home and change your clothes."

The fool obediently followed the woman and left.

This fool is Xiao Wu's sibling brother, Lu Xiaofeng, the young master of the White Deer Clan, and the woman's name is Fangfang, the daughter of the fool's foster family, and the only "protector" of the fool.

The sachet that Lu Xiaofeng, who has become a fool, desperately wants to get back, is his childhood sweetheart, and his little lover Zhen Keer, who has been privately promised for life, gave him a token of love. Although Lu Xiaofeng has become a fool and forgot what happened before, he subconsciously regards this sachet as a super big baby, and he carries it with him every day, and checks whether it is on his body from time to time.

Seeing that he is so precious to this sachet, those who want to see the excitement will often snatch his sachet and tease him.

How did a beautiful young man in white become a fool? The matter has to go back to the day when the White Deer Clan was slaughtered.

In the pomegranate garden of the Holy Maiden Temple, the lonely crane and Chenyou fought hard, and the battle was inextricable and difficult to distinguish. The lonely crane saw Cui'er pulling the little master of Xiao Wu and rushing towards the depths of Liangyi Mountain, he was afraid that the little master would encounter new dangers, so he had no intention of fighting again.

When the masked man in black rushed to help Chenyou, the lonely crane found an opportunity and slipped away. He wants to protect the little lord closely, and he can't let her suffer any other injuries, he is her shadow, and he must follow behind the little master.

It took three days for the lonely crane to be found, and even the shadows of the little lord and Cui'er were not found.

When the lone crane returned disappointed from Liangyi Mountain, Chenyou had left with the demon army, and the lone crane looked for a long time around the temple of the Holy Maiden, and kept seeing the corpses of the guards falling sideways at the passes, the lone crane was very tight, but the result was still nothing.

Helplessly, Lone Minghe walked into Luming Valley to look for it, and he was shocked by the shocking tragic situation in front of him.

I saw that nearly 1,000 corpses of men and women, old and young, of the Bailu tribe, were lying in pools of dried blood, and some of the uncovered women's corpses were even more scarred, with a look of fear on their faces.

Gu Minghe knew that these dead people were all the family and clansmen of the little master, so he immediately checked to see if there were any alive. Looking through several corpses, it was found that the deceased had multiple wounds on his body, but without exception, on the chest, there was an identical fatal wound. Obviously, the slaughterer, whether he lived or died, finally made up for this fatal knife.

It seems that this is not to leave any living mouth, and the intention is obvious, that is, to cover up the secret of the massacre.

Such a ruthless person who doesn't want to let go, they will definitely not let go of Xiao Wu and Cui'er who escaped, the more he thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes, he hurriedly began to look for the little master in Luming Valley again.

In the hall of the White Deer Clan, Lone Minghe searched everywhere carefully, this was his fourth search, he felt that a big hall might have a secret passage or a dark room and other hidden places, if there is, the little lord should know, it should also be the safest place for the little lord and Cui'er to hide, with the cleverness of the little lord, he should be able to think of this.

With extraordinary ear power, hearing a slight chirping, the lone crane trembled in his heart and was happy. Following the sound, he found a half-conscious teenager covered in blood in a very secret dark room.

Gu Minghe recognized that this young man was the little master's sibling brother--- Lu Xiaofeng, and he was often seen in the Holy Maiden's Hall to see the little master.

Lu Xiaofeng was beaten to the ground by Chenyou when he was fighting against Chenyou, and his head fell on a stone and was seriously injured.

didn't find the little master, Lone Minghe was frustrated, he hated himself for failing the trust of the second prince Mubai.

Lonely Minghe thought that back then, before the second prince Mu Bai died, he pointed himself out to Lu Xiaowu as the new master, and asked him to swear filial piety and protect the little master for a lifetime. From that day on, he was no longer driven by anyone, was not subject to any orders, and certainly did not have to report to anyone, and protecting the safety of the little master was his only mission in this life. And this mission is also destined for him to live in the shadows, like his name, mourning and lonely, lonely for a lifetime.

Gu Minghe and Xiao Wu had never met directly, and Xiao Wu didn't know that Mu Bai had assigned her a secret guard.

But Gu Minghe knows a lot about Xiao Wu's little master, and when he was still the secret guard of the second prince, Xiao Wu has been sticking together with the second prince day and night since he came to Da Jingyang Palace, so it's hard to understand it. Especially in Xiao Wu's last days in the Great Jingyang Palace and the three thousand years of the Holy Maiden's Palace, he followed him day and night, and his vigilant eyes never left the left and right of the little master.

Gu Minghe was depressed and lost for a moment, looked at Lu Xiaofeng who was anxious to be rescued in front of him, thought about it, picked him up and turned black smoke away.

Because he still had to continue to search for the missing little master, Gu Minghe could only entrust the injured Lu Xiaofeng to his fellow clansmen in the Ghost City--- blacksmith Gu Xin, and let him help treat and take care of his injuries.

In order to protect Lu Xiaofeng, he told the Guxin couple that the young man's name was Xinsheng, and he was an orphan left by his old friend.

The blacksmith Gu Xin was a righteous and rough man with the strength of a son, and his father fled to the city of the underworld, leaving behind a blacksmith shop, and he supported his family by striking iron.

Over the past 10,000 years, the Wuling Clan has become more and more powerful because of the resourceful lord and the brave and warlike young master, and more and more territory has been invaded and controlled, and the capital city Wuling City has become more and more lively and prosperous. Of course, Gu Xin's blacksmith business is getting better and better, and he can't be busy, so Gu Xin also took in the wandering Ah Meng as an apprentice to help himself.

Gu Xin has only one daughter named Fangfang under his knees, who is handsome and handsome, and has a bold personality.

Ah Meng likes Fangfang and is bent on pleasing him, and the couple also intend to add Ah Meng to the family, so that the craftsmanship can be passed on and the old man can be trusted.

It's just that Lang has no intention of having a concubine, and Fangfang just doesn't like the black and rough Ah Meng, and takes good care of the white and pure freshmen who are sent to the door to recuperate.

Fang Fangniang is a woman who forgets her righteousness and is mean and greedy for money, she is in charge of the family's property, and Gu Xin is a stuffy gourd who is afraid of guilt, and she dares to be angry and dare not speak out about the money that Fang Fangniang withheld for the treatment of the new life.

Lu Xiaofeng's brain injury was not treated in time and left the root of the disease, from a beautiful boy in white clothes to a fool who was scolded by adults and teased by children, and who didn't remember anything, only knew hehe, and smirked.

No one in the neighborhood cared about the name of this white-looking but dirty young man, and no one cared who he was? Everyone only knew that he was a fool, and they all called him a fool.

The fool was in the blacksmith every day, helping to do dirty work such as picking charcoal and hoeing ashes, and also doing some handy work. Because he didn't have much strength and didn't do well, he was either scolded by Gu Xin or beaten by Ah Meng, and the pedestrians in front of the shop saw a lot, and they were all strange.

In addition to being beaten and hurting, the fool will show a painful look, and the rest of the time is spent giggling, whether it is to others or to himself. Fools often laugh and grunt indistinctly at the same time, and they are talking stupid things that others can't hear or understand.

The most willing thing to do when you are stupid is to accompany Fangfang to the street every day to do shopping, sometimes, Fangfang will buy some food for the fool who can't eat enough to fill her stomach, watching the fool smirk and eat, Fangfang often shows a look of pity.

After returning home, the fool will light the fire to help cook together, as long as he accompanies Fangfang, the fool will smile happily, because when he is with Fangfang, she will protect him from being beaten.

The fool can't eat at the table, so he can only squat at the door of the room and eat some leftovers from Fang Fangniang.

Today is Fangfang's birthday, and the family has made two more dishes. Seeing that her mother only gave the fool a bowl of leftover porridge, Fangfang really couldn't look past it, walked to the door, and gave most of the food in her bowl to the fool, and the fool smirked at her, Fangfang looked at it gently, and said, "Eat it."

The fool took a bite, looked up at Shang Fangfang's eyes full of sympathy, and smirked, "It's delicious......! Yum!".

Fangfang was stunned by the fool's clear big eyes, and gave all the food in the bowl to the fool, and the fool looked up at Fangfang and smiled while gobbling it up.

Fang Fangniang was stunned by the two people at the door, slammed the chopsticks on the table with a "snap!", and shouted to Gu Xin: "You say, raising such a waste, it's been a year, you can't do anything, just waste food, you will say something accurate today, when will you send this big fool away?"

Gu Xin lowered his head to eat, and he didn't say a word.

"You're deaf, if you don't send him away, I'll let Ah Meng still let him out"

Ah Meng was righteous and Fangfang ignored him, but he cared about the fool, he suddenly stood up, and said angrily to Fangfangniang: "Master, as long as you say, I will throw him out now."

Seeing the fool being stunned with a mouthful of food, Fangfang's face was full of anger, and she suddenly turned around and rushed back to the house, shouting at her mother: "The money left by Uncle Gu is enough for the fool to see his injuries, you are greedy for money and don't treat him, let him be what he is now...... Hmph, it's okay if you don't give him a good meal, and now you want to be greedy for his money and drive him away...... Seeing Uncle Gu come back, how do you explain to him?".

Seeing Fang Fang talking like this, Fang Fangniang grabbed the broom handle on the side and chased after her, "Okay, you have no conscience, I did this, it's not all for you, you white-faced wolf...... Losing money!".

Ah Meng stood in front of Fangfang, the three of them chased and dodged, scolded and messed up, and the fool was scared and squatted by the wall, trembling.

Gu Xin, who had been silent, slapped the table angrily at this time and shouted angrily: "Stop making trouble......! Just roll back to ...... Your mother's house".

Everyone was shocked by the sudden outburst of this usually honest man, and no one dared to speak out anymore, and they all sat back at the table indignantly.

Gu Xin glared at Fang Fangniang angrily, sighed, and said sharply, "Brother Minghe entrusted the fool to me, so I can't drive him away, besides, let go of so much money...... My brother is doing great things, so this fool must have some background, if he is driven out and loses it...... You, you have a hundred lives...... I'm afraid it's not enough to pay!".

Honest people don't get angry often, and once they get angry, it's the fury of thunder.

Fang Fangniang also felt scared after listening to Gu Xin's words, not only afraid that Gu Xin would drive her away, but even more afraid that Gu Minghe came back to settle accounts with her, she suddenly became short of breath, and muttered in a low voice: "If you want to stay, take care of him yourself, I, I don't have any money", and slipped away with fun after speaking.

Since then, no one has dared to mention the words of a fool again.

Although the fool was not blown away, his life was not good at all, he still ate leftovers, lived in a firewood house with ventilation on all sides, his body was thin and his clothes were thin, and he was often sick, if it wasn't for Fangfang or stealing or saving money to buy medicine for him to treat his illness, I am afraid that the fool would have died of illness long ago.

The fool is very dependent on Fangfang, and when he sees her, he follows with a smile on his face, unwilling to leave a step, and Fangfang also likes to play with the fool.

Seeing Fangfang washing the fool's hair and wiping his body, giving the fool delicious food, smiling at the fool, and seeing her stand up to protect the fool...... Ah Meng was so jealous that he died.

In order to vent his dissatisfaction, Ah Meng beat fools in private, and the fools he often beat were crying. The fool was covered in a bad body, either scalded or blunt, bruised and purple, and there was no good place. If Fangfang scolded him angrily, Ah Meng hit him even harder.

Fangfang angrily complained to her father, but Ah Meng always had a reason, either that the fool had lost something, or that he was greedy for fun and lacked charcoal, etc.

Gu Xin also knows that fools do things, often because they are not successful enough to fail, and they are even angry when they look at themselves, and they often scold him when they provoke themselves. Besides, Gu Xin didn't want to say too much to his future son-in-law, so he didn't bother to care, or just said it lightly.

Fang Fangniang is most happy to see the fool being beaten, and she will be happy if she can beat him away.

The couple's attitude indulged Ah Meng, beat fools, and became a common thing for him to vent his dissatisfaction.

The poor fool is an old wound that has not healed, and a new wound is added, and his life is miserable!
