Chapter 3: Family Feud
Li Yu didn't know if he didn't hear Li Qingfeng's muttering, or if he fell into a memory, "Your Uncle Li Yan saved me, and I was about to pull me up, but I didn't notice that there was already a bandit behind me, and the big knife was about to cut you Uncle Li Yan."
At that time, I wanted to remind him that it was too late, "Li Yan, hide, ...... behind" By the time I finished saying this, blood had already spurted out of Li Yan's back, and I was all over my face.
The bandit laughed and said, "Haha, isn't that your kid the craziest? ”
After saying that, he was about to attack me, and at that moment, a strong stop came through.
At that time, most of the village names had been killed and wounded, and the bandits had only killed one and injured three or four, although the bandits felt that the old man who shouted to stop was a little nervous, who did he think he was, and he said stop it?
But the leader of the horse bandits did stop, and he was also very impatient at first, but he could feel that the momentum of this old man's shouting had a different kind of deterrence, and he had only recently felt it.
"Why are you trying to save them?" the bandit leader stopped the other bandits.
Yes, it was Lao Li Tou who came back from hunting and shouting, "Let's go, don't hurt the innocent anymore, you finally practiced some momentum, don't know how to cherish it." ”
Horse bandits, of course, are not so easy to be frightened, immediately there was a horse bandit holding a big knife towards Lao Li Tou, Lao Li Tou dodged sideways and then grabbed a backhand, grabbed the horse bandit's hand and hit his right hand from bottom to top.
I heard a miserable scream from the horse bandit, and the big knife fell to the ground, and Lao Li slowly bent down, ready to pick up the knife on the ground.
After all, it is a horse bandit who has no rules, and he will remind others to "look at the knife" before killing
Lao Li Tou picked up the big knife on the ground to block it, and then slashed along the knife edge to the horse bandit.
The horse bandit took advantage of the situation to dodge back, and the two opened up the distance.
This is to see Lao Li Tou put away the big knife and put it behind him, "This strong man should also know that you people can't help me, and I can't beat me with two fists, so how about this matter end here?"
How about you take some food and leave?"
The other horse bandits still have to make moves, and when they saw the leader of the horse bandits, he raised his hand: "Hehe, it's a single fight, I can't help you, but I still have so many brothers, I don't believe that so many people can't beat you." After saying that, the leader of the horse bandits was ready to attack again.
Lao Li Tou said again: "What the strong man said is right, I really can't beat it alone, but there are still more than a dozen villagers on my side, are you sure you can get out of the way?
The leader of the horse bandits frowned, waved his big hand, got on the horse, and "...... go"
The other bandits were puzzled and said "the big boss ?......"
The bandit leader walked away without explanation.
Not long after the horse bandits left here, Lao Li Tou spat blood, it turned out that Lao Li Tou met a bear when he was hunting, and he had a fight with it, so he was injured, otherwise the dozen or so horse thieves were really not his opponents, and the reason why he endured it all the time was to deter them,
Otherwise, let the horse bandit know that he is injured, can he still do it?
I don't know if it was out of fear or how, anyway, the horse bandits didn't take food with them when they left, but Lijia Village, which originally had more than 20 families of 60 or 70 people, suddenly became more than a dozen families.
This is the reason why there are so few houses in our village now, and why some houses are not inhabited, and why I and the village chief asked Lao Li Tou to discuss countermeasures.
The only thing that made me sorry that time was you, Uncle Li Yan, who died to save me. ”
Li Qingfeng had never seen his father cry, but this time his father was in tears.
Just as Li Qingfeng was thinking about how to comfort Li Yu, Mu Yunxia's voice came from the house, "Feng'er, Miao Miao is awake, she wants to see you." ”
Li Qingfeng walked into the room that originally belonged to him, and looked at Li Miaomiao, who was wearing a white dress, although he was only thirteen years old, he could vaguely see the appearance of that beautiful embryo.
"Brother Qingfeng, what about grandpa? What's wrong with him? Why am I at your house? Aunt Mu won't let me go home, saying that grandpa has something to do? I have to ask you specifically?" Li Miaomiao excitedly grabbed Li Qingfeng's arm and asked.
Li Qingfeng looked at Li Miaomiao, who was already crying a little, and comforted: "It's okay, your grandfather just went out to run errands, and he will be back soon." Oh, by the way, this is the letter your grandfather left for you," it turned out that Li Qingfeng had already taken advantage of this time to dig out the box that Lao Li Tou said.
Li Miaomiao hurriedly opened the envelope, "Miaomiao, when you see this letter, grandpa should have already left, rest assured grandpa is fine, just go to deal with some things, and will come back to pick you up once you settle down."
In addition, I left two swords for you and Aomine in the box, and a cheatbook. One is called Qingfeng, and the other is called Mingyue, which sounds good, right? The secret book is the meteor step that I told you about the heroine Dongfang Qingqing. Haven't you been clamoring to learn, grandpa has prepared it for you.
In addition to the meteor step, grandpa taught you since childhood, you must also cultivate, these years are in chaos, you have the strength to protect yourself, protect the people you want to protect.
You can also let your brother Qingfeng learn to see, if he learns, he can't learn, don't force it, I'm afraid it will backfire.
There are still some soft things in the box that I left for you and Aomine, just in case.
When I'm away, you have to listen to Aomine and your uncle and aunt, you can't be too willful. ”
After Li Miaomiao read the letter, she immediately began to drop pearls the size of soybeans in her big eyes, and she didn't cry, she just kept crying.
made Li Qingfeng and his parents anxious, maybe they were women after all, but Mu Yunxia comforted her.
The second half of the night
should also be tired of crying, Li Miaomiao fell asleep with a mind full of questions: Why didn't grandpa take me with him? Will grandpa be in danger, does grandpa don't want me anymore? And grandpa obviously deceives people, and the heroine Dongfang Qingqing obviously uses meteor butterfly steps.
Because there were only two rooms in the house, I had to let Mu Yunxia sleep with Li Miaomiao, and let Li Yu's father and son sleep together.
Hearing that Li Miaomiao finally fell asleep quietly next door, Li Qingfeng's father and son both breathed a sigh of relief, after all, coaxing girls is really not their forte.
"Feng'er, what do you think of the White Night Valley that Lao Li Tou said in the afternoon? What do you say?" Li Yu said to his son next to him, looking at the ceiling.
When Li Qingfeng heard his father's question, he was slightly stunned and turned his head, "But father, we don't know where the White Night Valley is, don't we? Where should we find it......?"
Li Yu also turned his head to look at his son, and saw Li Qingfeng's skinny body and pale face, a little sour, and stretched out his left hand to touch Li Qingfeng's head, "Silly boy, of course this is an adult's business, don't worry, my father will find a way, and he will inquire." ”
"Dad~ Actually, I've always had a question, why haven't I seen my grandparents since I was a child, and even my maternal grandparents haven't seen them?"
Li Yu obviously didn't expect Li Qingfeng to ask this question, first he was stunned, and then he thought about it, the child is also older, and he should know this.
"Feng'er, you have also grown up, and some of them can also tell you, although our family was not originally a rich and noble family, it was also a famous scholarly family in Minning County, and your grandfather also served as a county magistrate for several years.
But the good times did not last long, Qi was in turmoil, and King Pingnan established himself as king. That year, Ye Yukun, the general under the command of King Pingnan, attacked our Minning County, and when the soldiers came to the city, how I persuaded your grandfather with your uncle didn't work, saying that he wanted to live and die with Minning County, and the people who lived in the Great Qi Country died were the ghosts of the Great Qi Kingdom. ”
Li Qingfeng vaguely guessed something, but he didn't say or ask, just listened to Li Yu quietly.
Li Yu seemed to fall into deep thought, and continued, "At that time, your grandfather refused to leave, but strongly asked me to take you and your brother Qingshan with your uncle, and your uncle was okay at that time, and I was still a little incredulous and scolded your uncle for being greedy for life and afraid of death." As he spoke, he seemed to be a little disdainful and a little helpless.
"And then?"
"And then, your grandfather drove me away, but my father didn't leave, where can I go? Of course I won't, saying that let the eldest brother, that is, your uncle, take you away, and I will stay.
At that time, your mother heard me say this and decided to stay with me in life and death.
Your uncle said that in this case, let's have another reunion dinner.
I didn't want to share a table with your uncle out of anger, but your grandfather agreed, and said that this should be the last meal our family will have, so we must eat.
But...... But......" At this point, Li Yu suddenly began to choke.
Li Qingfeng looked at the middle-aged man next to him who never cried easily, and today was the second time he had seen him cry.
Then I heard Li Yu's slightly hoarse voice say, "But your uncle has been toasting me, and he also said that it is worthy of my second brother's courage to accompany my father on the last journey."
I scolded him and drank with him. Your grandfather sat silently, drinking silently, while your mother and your aunt wept, and only your uncle's son was there to persuade us.
I was drunk and drunk that day, and I just remember that night I kept scolding you uncle. Even when your mother cried, I was upset, and I scolded her
The scolding is hard to hear.
When I woke up, we were already out of the city, and I knew at that time that your uncle's greed for life and fear of death was simply his delaying tactic, in order to get me drunk so that we could be sent out of the city.
When I returned to Minning County again, I only saw the heads of your grandfather and grandmother and your uncle's family...... Even up and down our Li Mansion, all twenty-five people were killed, leaving only me, you, and your mother.
I watched from afar outside the city, and I didn't even dare to worship.
As for your uncle's son Qingshan, he was left behind by your uncle's ruthlessness, and he left me in an envelope saying that he must have a man, otherwise Ye Yukun will be suspicious at the first time, because how can a big family not even have a small character?
Is it extinct?
I was almost about to rush into the county to find Ye Yukun to take revenge, but fortunately, your mother stopped me at that time and told me that it was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
After calming down, I also know that going to Minning County now is just sending me to death, so I heard that your uncle's letter had to arrange to endure humiliation and hide in Lijia Village, our hometown.
Maybe it was Ye Yukun's carelessness, or maybe it was the urgency of the pressure from the northern forces, so we avoided a section.
Therefore, Feng'er, you must remember that Qi Mingwei, the king of Pingnan, and his general Ye Yukun have a grudge against us. ”
Li Qingfeng also gritted his teeth when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to kill Ye Yukun and King Pingnan now, "Father and child remember, the gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, don't worry." The child will take revenge. ”
Looking at his son's determined eyes, Li Yu suddenly had some mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know whether it was good to tell his son about it, on the one hand, he hoped that his son could remember the family feud. Strive for revenge.
On the other hand, he felt that Li Qingfeng was still young, and he was sick, so he would not care about these pressures that did not belong to him.
"By the way, what about my father's grandfather and grandmother?"
"Your mother was picked up by your grandparents when they went out, after all, a girl was lonely outside, and your grandparents adopted her when they saw her pitiful.
Originally, I just wanted to raise her as a daughter, but later your grandfather and grandmother saw that I and your mother had the intention of having a concubine, so they let me take her and become a real family, so I don't know where your grandfather and grandmother are now. ”
"That's ...... so"
Ten days have passed in a flash, and I originally thought that Li Miaomiao would make trouble in the first two days, but ten days have passed, and Li Qingfeng sees that Li Miaomiao is depressed every day, no matter how Li Qingfeng does to her, it doesn't work for her.
Eat on this day.
Li Yu looked at Li Miaomiao, "Miao Miao, the village chief has been getting more and more serious in the past two days, and he wants to go to Minning County to find a doctor, why don't you go with Feng'er, just to inquire about the news of your grandfather." ”
As soon as Li Miaomiao heard that she could go to the county seat to inquire about her grandfather's news, her eyes seemed to suddenly brighten: "Really? Uncle, what you said is true?"
Li Yu looked at Li Miaomiao's rare smile in the past ten days, and immediately affirmed, "Of course it's true, it's more true than pearls," and while saying that, he didn't forget to rub Li Miaomiao's head.
Li Qingfeng and Mu Yunxia on the side finally smiled when they saw Li Miaomiao, and the mother and son glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled.
"Hurry up and eat, it's going to be cold if you don't eat any more vegetables," Mu Yunxia urged when she saw a few people laughing dryly and didn't eat.
