Chapter 1: Blessings and Misfortunes

Twenty years ago, the moon seemed to be as round, as bright, as clean as it is today, but who knows the joy, joy and melancholy of twenty years ago?

The ruthlessness of history lies in the fact that it only records the past, but cannot restore emotions.

The sadness of reality also lies in this - although there were meritorious contributions at that time, it is impossible to predict the indifference of future generations and the nonsense of Zhang Guan Li Dai!

Twenty years ago, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Songshan Manor was joyful, fearful, and the beginning of disaster.

When the moon is in the sky, the clear light is full of courtyard, the inside and outside of Songshan Manor are jubilant, and everywhere is filled with a festive and peaceful festive atmosphere; that day, all the old and young of Songshan Manor, the master and servant are in the same hall, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is solemnly celebrated.

The festive dinner had just ended, and Wu Dahai's interest was still high, and at this time, it happened that the swordsman he admired the most, Niu Fen of Niujiazhuang, came to visit.

"Then invite him in!" Wu Dahai said.

"It's just in time, our sister is also in need of a companion to admire the moon!" said Mrs. Wu with a smile, exchanging a meaningful look at her husband.

Yu Biyuan is Mrs. Wu's maid and her good sister, they grew up together, and the difference between master and servant is only two years old. Yu Biyuan has always been capable and neat, she is a pretty girl with sharp teeth, her eyes are smart, her face is pretty, her temperament is impatient, and her heart is strong, and she is a rare good helper by her master's side.

After a short time, Zhuang Ke led a young man with a bright spirit to walk in through the moonlight outside the door. Under the rendering of the moonlight, he was radiant and free-flowing, with a wide face and a square mouth, and a dignified appearance. Wearing a grass-green robe, stepping on a pair of clean black-faced boots, and carrying a black-sheathed long sword, he happily walked into the hall, and saw Wu Dahai and his wife hurriedly saluting.

"Brother Wu and sister-in-law are auspicious for the Mid-Autumn Festival!"

"Brother came at the right time!" Wu Dahai took his hand enthusiastically and said, "The moon viewing on our village has just begun!" As he spoke, he instructed the villager just now to go to the lotus pavilion in the front yard to set up another seat, thinking that he would admire the moon.

At this moment, Xiao Wushuang, who was only five years old, ran in happily in the moonlight.

"Father, mother, I'm going to the street to see the community lanterns! I'm going to the street to see the community lights!" Xiao Wushuang ran to his father's side and muttered.

Subsequently, the maid Yu Biyuan also walked in from the moonlight outside the door. When she saw Niu Fen on the seat, and Niu Fen also saw her, the two of them looked at each other with affection.

Seeing this, Wu Dahai and his wife's hearts were also more intentional, and they nodded self-evidently.

"Sir, madam, Shuang'er is going to the street to see the excitement, why don't you let me lead him?" Yu Biyuan said.

"Okay, that's for the best. Mrs. Wu squeezed her eyes at her husband and said, "If you don't ask Brother Niu Fen to be a bodyguard, so that people will come and go on the street, and we will have nothing to fear!"

"The little brother must fulfill his duties and be a competent bodyguard!" Without waiting for Wu Dahai to speak, Niu Fen said first with a smile.

Yu Biyuan was also so excited that she lowered her pretty face with a shy answer.

"Okay, that's fine," Wu Dahai said with a smile, "Then you two will work hard, take the children to the street to see the excitement and come back, I will set up a banquet in the lotus pavilion in the front yard and wait for you to come back to drink and admire the moon together." ”

So, the two of them led Xiao Wu Shuanghuan to the street happily. Everywhere I saw the lights and lights, lively and lively, people dressed in festive costumes, rubbing shoulders, all kinds of vendors, snacks and exquisite playthings, everything is dizzying. The colorful Kong Ming also set off one after another in no particular order. Suddenly, the stars in the sky were bright, the moonlight was brilliant, and the earth was brilliantly lit up, and laughter was everywhere. People have happiness written on their faces, and their hearts are filled with happiness and contentment,

At this time, Niu Fen was holding the child, and Yu Biyuan boldly held his arm. The two of them leaned on each other, talking and laughing, and their affection was long, so romantic.

"Shuang'er, do you like this sister?" Niu Fen suddenly jokingly asked Xiao Wushuang who was holding in his hand.

"Like. ”

"Where do you like it?"

Xiao Wu pointed to his stomach with two fingers.

"Is it because you like it?" said Niu Fen with a smile.

"Hmm!" Xiao Wushuang nodded cutely.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Shuang'er, is the eldest brother good to you?" At this time, Yu Biyuan suddenly asked again.

"Good!"

"Where's he?"

"Good mouth!"

"Why is it good in your mouth?" Yu Biyuan couldn't finish speaking, and she couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear.

"Because my big brother says every time, when I grow up, he will teach me the best swordsmanship in the world!"

"Then you're going to grow up quickly!"

"Hmm!" Xiao Wushuang nodded still cutely.

"Shuang'er, is Sister Biyuan beautiful?" Niu Fen asked him again.

"Beautiful. ”

"Is she interested in someone?"

"Big brother, who are you talking about?"

"Is that the person your sister Biyuan wants to marry him?"

"Yes!"

"And who is he?"

"It's me, I'm going to marry my sister as a wife when I grow up!"

Niu Fen and the two laughed again.

"My brother can't marry my sister when he's older. Yu Biyuan pointed at Xiao Wushuang's nose and said.

"What should I do then?" asked Xiao Wushuang anxiously.

"Then let the eldest brother marry the sister, okay?" Yu Biyuan looked at Xiao Wushuang and said, and then she suddenly glanced at Niu Fen with affection.

The two of them shook their hearts again, with affection.

Cow Dung suddenly felt a burst of excitement in her heart, and also grabbed her hand tighter.

"Then when are you going to marry me?" Niu Fen suddenly looked at Yu Biyuan and asked solemnly.

"Then you have to agree with the lady and the master!" Yu Biyuan lowered her head and whispered in shyness.

"Understand, I'll propose to them when I go back!"

At this moment, they suddenly heard a faint commotion in the distance behind them, and the sound seemed to be very intense, including the piercing sound of swords colliding, the incessant barking of the ears, and the cries for help and the thrilling shouts of killing.

They turned back in horror, and their hearts were faintly uneasy, judging from the direction, the place where the noise was made was Songshan Manor.

Suddenly, Guan Xin, the child who was picked up by the owner of Wu Zhuang from Jingzhou, ran over in horror, he looked for Niu Fen and Wu Shuang, and said in a panic.

"Sister Bi Yuan and Niu Shaoxia are not in a good situation, and a gang of robbers suddenly poured into the village, and they are extremely vicious, raiding the house and killing people; the lord and the lady saw that the situation was not good, and told me to escape from the manor while the chaos was in trouble, and hurry to the street to find you. They told you to flee for your lives, and asked you to raise the child for the sake of many years, if the Wu family can escape this catastrophe, they will definitely repay it twice in the future!

The two were stunned when they heard the bad news.

"I'm afraid that the owner and wife of the village and the guests will also be killed at this moment!" Guan Xin muttered as he looked in the direction of Songshan Manor sadly.

Gradually, the noise in the distance also slowly subsided. However, the panic in the streets had just begun, and the people were alarmed by the bad news of the Songshan Manor, and the streets were full of commotion, and the people ran in panic, screaming, and shouting.

"The Raven Gang is coming, run, run for your life!"

In an instant, the market was chaotic, with the shouts of adults, children, and the sound of footsteps.

In the chaos, the two of them didn't have time to think, so they only listened to Niu Fen say decisively.

"Let's go, hurry up and go to our Niujiazhuang to avoid the limelight and look again!"
