15. This Hatred and This Hate (1)

When Li Xiangru woke up, he only felt that the vest was warm, and it turned out that the sun had risen high, and the spring sun was shining right on his back. www.biquge.info He felt spicy and painful on his back, his whole body was sore and soft, and he had no strength in his body, and he remembered that last night in order to escape the killing of Huo Wei and Wang Shihao, he jumped into the Dianchi Lake desperately, because he entered the water very quickly, Huo Wei's palm swept him away, and did not cause him too much damage. His face was buried in the grass, the weeds had yellow flowers, and a faint fragrance penetrated his nostrils, and he only felt a shock at first smell, and slowly felt a sense of drowsiness. He suddenly saved: "When my grandfather was alive, he mentioned to me that there is a kind of grass on the edge of Dianchi Lake, called hypnotic grass. This grass grows small yellow flowers, under the sun, it will emit a unique aroma, which has a hypnotic effect on people, and at night after the sun sets, the hypnotic grass will no longer release the aroma, and the hypnotic effect will slowly disappear. Yesterday I slept all day, and only then did I wake up at night. Yes, could this be the hypnotic grass that my grandfather said?" Thinking of this, one rolled over and sat up. I picked up a tuft of grass with yellow flowers, sniffed it in my nostrils, the grass had a faint medicinal fragrance, I thought that my grandfather knew medical science before his death, and often took a medicine book to read, and when I went home, I turned out the medical book left by my grandfather to check and compare, and I knew whether this was hypnotic grass. Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered another important thing, slapped his thigh, and shouted: "It's bad, it's bad, I didn't return last night, my parents must be worried about death." In a hurry, he jumped up, just stood halfway, his legs were weak, "ouch" screamed, and sat on the ground again, it turned out that he did not enter the dripping water and rice for a day and a night, and was swept by Huo Wei's palm, jumped into the water and soaked for a long time, the body naturally couldn't bear it, it was hungry and empty in the stomach, the whole body was sore and weak, so he simply sat on the ground and rested for a while, and thought: "I didn't return all night, and I didn't catch the fish, and my parents were frightened, this time they had to scold me to death, I had to go back quickly." With his hands on the ground, he slowly got up, picked up the fish basket not far away, and slowly walked home along the way he came. Thinking back to last night's events along the way, Wang Shihao and Huo Weishen went to the edge of Dianchi Lake in the middle of the night to conspire, and were inadvertently bumped into by themselves, and then wanted to kill themselves. What the hell were they plotting, why were they so nervous when they found out about me, I was just a child, why did they have to kill me? Suddenly, a terrible thought made him shudder, forgot his pain and weariness, and ran home.

Li Xiangru rushed home along the road, jumped over a lot of ditches and bumps, fell three or four times, didn't care, got up and continued to run, after running for several miles, he was already so tired that he couldn't breathe, bent over and gasped for a while, and then continued to run. Seeing that it was less than half a mile away from home, I slowed down. There is a forest in front of you, and then a small hill, and the bank of Dianchi Lake below the hillside is your home.

Before he reached the top of the slope, he heard the noise of people and horses, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the front and back of his house were surrounded by many people, some of whom were dressed as ordinary figures, but most of them were dressed in the costumes of officers and soldiers, and each of them was holding a bright sword and gun in his hand. He is familiar with the dress of the people in the official government, and he remembers that he often comes to the village in the spring and autumn every year, collects all kinds of taxes, and is like a wolf and a tiger, and often commands the villagers, beats and scolds, and the villagers scold them for being clear dogs behind their backs. Li Xiangru saw that his home was surrounded by so many people, and he felt faintly bad in his heart, so he didn't dare to go over for a while, only temporarily hid in the bushes, and then made plans after secretly seeing the situation, and saw his parents standing in front of the door, carrying a burden on his shoulders, and his father was holding a knife in his hand, and a group of people pointed fingers at him, and the two sides were arguing fiercely, and Wang Shihao was also among them, because they were too far away, they couldn't hear what they said. I thought, "What are these people going to do? It seems that they want to arrest their parents, why is this?" When I was confused and anxious, I saw my mother Wu Qingluan retreat into the room and closed the door. Father Li Shiyuan and Wang Shihao's accomplices -- it was the person who slapped himself in the back last night, and Wang Shihao called him Huo Daxia started to do it. Li Xiangru saw that his father could also do martial arts, and he shot quickly, which was dazzling, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, and thought: "It turns out that my father knows martial arts, I never know, but I have never heard my grandfather and mother talk about it." Why didn't he teach me, and even the villain surnamed Wang (since last night's incident, now seeing Wang Shihao and others to deal with his father, Li Xiangru has already decided that Wang Shihao is a bad person) wants to take me as an apprentice, and he doesn't agree, why is this? Why did this villain surnamed Wang bring people to deal with his parents? Why did he do this?" Many questions came one after another, which troubled his little heart and made him puzzled. Seeing my father fighting with the enemy, he was high and low, his body was agile, and he beat those people to the ground in a short time, and his heart was excited and excited: "I can't imagine that my father is so powerful, and after he knocks these bad people away, I will definitely pester him to teach me martial arts, so that I can help him fight away these bad things in the future." Although he is smart, he is young after all, and when he is happy, he forgets that his father and mother are surrounded by so many people, and it is not easy to get out of trouble.

The next scene made Li Xiangru almost faint, he saw the door of the house open, and his mother Wu Qingluan was escorted out with a knife, and that person was Wang Shihao. When Li Xiangru saw his mother being captured, he was so anxious that he opened his mouth and called "Niang", but because of the distance, no one heard him shout. In desperation, he no longer hesitated, and rushed down the hill to rescue his mother with an arrow step out of the forest. As soon as he rushed out a few steps, a thought flashed through his mind: "If I go over now, I will not only be a little child, but I will not only be unable to save my father and mother, but I will also be caught by this gang of bad guys." This thought made him stop abruptly. Thinking of this, he gently hid back in the bushes, staring nervously at everything in front of the house, his heart was pounding and sweating. When he saw his father abandon the knife and surrender, and was tied up by the enemy, Li Xiangru once again couldn't help but rush forward, but as soon as he lifted his leg and wanted to rush out, a thought flashed in his mind: "No, I can't go out, no, I can't go out." I'm going to get caught, I'm going to be caught, who's going to rescue Mom and Dad?" he clenched his fists, his teeth clenched and bit his lip, trembling all over, desperately restraining himself, letting himself slowly calm down, tears already overflowing his eyes. He stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and saw an old man riding a tall horse and richly dressed with a large group of officers and soldiers coming, the man got off the horse, and talked to his father face to face for a while, only to see him walking around in front of his father, dancing with his hands, looking angry, and after a while, the old man got on the horse and led the soldiers and horses away. The group gathered around his father and slashed at him with his blade, and his blood splattered and he fell to the ground and rolled on the ground. Li Xiangru's heart was like a knife, he couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "Dad, Mom!" In the noise and the sound of horses' hooves, his screams were so insignificant that no one noticed them. This time he didn't have the impulse, he grabbed the weeds on the ground with both hands, grabbed the weeds in front of him one by one, embedded his fingers deep in the soil, dug out two small pits on the ground, his fingers were ground by the earth and stones and bloody, and he bit his lip tightly, biting the blood flowed, and he didn't feel pain. He fell to the ground, buried his face in the dirt, and wept bitterly, and the cry was covered by the dirt and grass, and he let out only a terrible and muffled cry of "woo, woo, woo", and the earth, tears, and blood flowed into his mouth. After a long time, when he looked up again, he saw that his house had turned into a raging sea of fire, and black smoke filled the sky. Grandpa made a little wooden horse for himself, my father sharpened the spinning top for himself, my mother sewed new clothes for himself during the New Year, and a box of books left by my grandfather, a dark yellow ancient inkstone, when my grandfather was alive, when they were treasures, before his death, he said that these treasures were reserved for Xiangru, and told himself to study hard, to be a knowledgeable person like his father. It's all gone, ruined by these wicked people. He wiped away his tears, opened his eyes wide, and looked at these people clearly one by one: "Wang Shihao, the big villain, the one surnamed Huo, and a woman in green, a thin man with a long whip, another red-faced man with an iron bar, and the last one who came was an old man with a tall horse and rich clothes. By the way, there is also a Qing general who led the Qing soldiers first, and he vaguely had a big mole on his face. By the way, there are also those wolf-like Qing soldiers. These are the people who arrested my father and mother and set fire to our family's house. I want to remember these people, and one day, I will let them pay with blood and kill them all one by one!" At this moment, the seeds of hatred were planted in Li Xiangru's young heart.

The Qing soldiers gradually moved away, and Li Xiangru saw his father and mother lying on a stretcher and being carried away. There was only one thought in his heart: "Where are they going to take my father and mother, I want to follow behind, and think of saving my father and mother!" Thinking of this, he had an incomparably huge courage, Huo Ran stood up, wiped the bloodstains, wiped his tears, and followed Wang Shihao and the others from a distance, wanting to find an opportunity to rescue his father and mother - Li Shiyuan and Wu Qingluan.
