XVII. The Alliance of Heaven (1)
The sound of hooves is heard, the wheels are rattling, and the mule cart is speeding through the snow.
The two sat in the car face to face, Qin Chuan peeked at each other, and saw Mu Qinglan's side face facing outward, thoughtful. His gaze was not more than a foot away from her cheek, and he caught a glimpse of her white complexion, like cream, slightly oozing a delicate red, and her complexion was abnormally beautiful.
After a while, Mu Qinglan said in a low voice: "I heard from Daddy and Aunt Yang that Brother Qin has been in Sichuan alone for eight years, but he doesn't know what's going on, can you tell my little sister?"
Qin Chuan smiled slightly and said, "It's a long story, it's all my personal boring, I'm afraid that the girl will be annoyed when she hears it!"
Mu Qinglan said: "I really want to hear it, how can I be annoyed?" Qin Chuan heard her voice tremble slightly, feeling slightly strange, but he didn't care, so he told him about the martial arts experience. Mu Qinglan is cold by nature, elegant and dignified, only occasionally asking, Qin Chuan's heart has been depressed for several days, and he has no reason to confide, at this time, he is like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and he will pick up all the encounters before and after the martial arts practice in Mount Emei.
Among them, Mu Changfeng's speculation and Baixiweng's entrustment were ignored, and when Wanyu left, he was shocked: "How can I tell her this?" I felt that the depressed mood of the past few days had disappeared.
He said curtly: "These boring private matters make Miss Mu smile!" Mu Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled, "No, I think it's very interesting." Qin Chuan suddenly remembered the situation when Wanyu forced himself to ask himself in bed that night, and couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, and asked, "Miss Mu, can you tell me why you have been refusing to see Senior Mu, what happened between your father and daughter?"
Mu Qinglan was stunned for a moment, and snorted: "I, what's the matter with me?" Seeing Qin Chuan looking at him with wide eyes, his cheeks were slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "I told you about my father, Aunt Yang that day." Brother Qin, no matter what, I should really thank you!"
She sighed leisurely, lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and said faintly: "I'm not very good at talking, don't worry." My father and Xianci were a loving couple, and everyone in the world was envious, and they all said that it was a match made in heaven. ”
"But who knows that my father is a Jianghu man and has many brothers, and the days he has with his brothers are much longer than those at home. Later, I heard from my mother that before I was born, something seemed to have happened to my father's Jianghu organization, and the situation was very bad, which made him very sad, and many injured brothers often went to him. ”
"My mother didn't like my father's close relationship with those brothers. But I have always been forbearing, and most of my mother and daughter lived with my grandmother at that time. ”
"My father is from Jinan, and my mother is from Chengdu. When I was very young, my father often left the house, sometimes for more than a month, and for three or five months. Gradually, my mother finally couldn't bear it anymore and often quarreled with my father. My mother's health was not very good, but then she became more and more sick, and my father had promised to take good care of her and not bother with the affairs of the organization. ”
"When I was 10 years old, my father left Chengdu with the whole family, and sure enough, I didn't have any contact with those brothers for half a year. My mother's condition became worse and worse, and my father sought a famous doctor, but he never got better. After arriving at Mujiazhuang on the shore of Daming Lake in Jinan Prefecture, my father thought of a lot of ways, and finally inquired about a miracle doctor surnamed Hu from Tai'an County, who was Hu Yitu who helped you relieve the poison of your legs and feet. ”
When Qin Chuan heard her say this, he immediately remembered the "red-haired medical demon" Hu Yitu, and said in his heart: "It turns out that Doctor Hu has been to Tai'an, and his medical skills are superb, if Senior Mu finds him in time, Miss Mu's mother may be saved." ”
At that time, the body was slightly bumpy, and the road gradually became bumpy. I saw that Mu Qinglan's delicate face was shrouded in a faint layer of melancholy, and she became more and more pitiful, and listened to her continue: "At that time, my father saw that my mother's condition was getting worse, and I seemed to gradually reveal the situation of the next life, I couldn't help but panic, I heard that after Dr. Hu Shenyi traveled to Tai'an, he took my mother to the starry night, but unfortunately it was still late!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but let out an "ah" and said, "Even Doctor Hu can't cure your mother?" Mu Qinglan said sadly: "Before we arrived at Tai'an County, my mother couldn't support it and passed away!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but stretch out his palm and slapped it heavily on his thigh, and said repeatedly: "It's a pity, it's a pity!" Only then did she remember the scene where her father and daughter hugged and cried when they saw Hu Yitu in Xinglin Valley.
Mu Qinglan wiped away her tears, opened her eyes, and continued: "Aunt Yang and I were both present at the time, and when my father saw that my mother was dead, I went crazy, holding my mother's corpse and crying and laughing, and then I ran to the top of Mount Tai Jade Emperor and jumped off the cliff!"
Qin Chuan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said, "Then, what about later?" Although he knew that Mu Changfeng was still alive and well, he still couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart.
Mu Qinglan shook her head and said, "At that time, Aunt Yang and I were both stupid and crying for help. It happened that a Shaolin monk passed by and heard Aunt Yang and I crying, so he asked for the reason. ”
"When the Shaolin monk heard that my father had jumped off the cliff, he rushed to the cliff to look around, and finally found my father dying on a big tree under the cliff. At that time, my father's whole body was completely damaged by the cliff wall, and his leg was broken, but fortunately there were many big pine trees where he fell, so he did not die!"
"The Shaolin monk rescued his unconscious father, brought him to us, and helped him heal his leg injury. When my father woke up and wanted to commit suicide again, the monk tried many ways to persuade my father to commit suicide. ”
"I remember that my father looked at me at that time, his face was full of blood, and suddenly he burst into tears and said to the monk: 'Great monk, don't persuade me anymore, I have already figured it out. The ants are still stealing life, I will never seek death again, I still have a daughter, and a Lan'er!' The monk was very happy and said, "Amitabha, it is rare for the donor to think like this." The poor monk's trip to Mount Tai is not worth it!' ”
At that time, he was not in charge of Shaolin, but he was the first person in the Dharma Hall to go to the Guxu Taoist of the Taishan faction, and by chance, he saved my father under the top of the Jade Emperor. ”
When Qin Chuan heard the name of the Lingdu monk, he couldn't help but say "ah" again, and touched the letter on his chest, and said in his heart: "It turned out that the Shaolin abbot saved Senior Mu!"
He saw Mu Qinglan's eyebrows frowning, obviously his thoughts were trapped in it and he couldn't extricate himself, so he said: "Miss Mu, don't think about it anymore, now that your father and daughter are reunited, they are all happy, wouldn't it be good to live a good life in the future?"
Mu Qinglan opened her dark eyes, looked at Qin Chuan, sighed lightly, and said, "Brother Qin, you are a good person, I don't regret bringing you here today!"
Qin Chuan heard her strange words and said, "What did you say?"
Mu Qinglan shook her head and said to herself: "Later, my father transported my mother's coffin to Chengdu, which is the place you went to that day. That's where my father and mother first met. Daddy spent money for craftsmen to build pavilions overnight, and named it 'Silan Xiaozhu'. ”
Qin Chuan said: "Miss Mu, why didn't Senior Mu live with you later?"
Mu Qinglan sighed: "Dad was somehow crazy for no reason, and it was my grandmother who really presided over the overall situation in the family. Half a year after the construction of the 'Silan Xiaozhu', my father suddenly went crazy again, crying in front of my mother's tomb for half the night, and then disappeared!"
Qin Chuan said in his heart: "It turns out that Senior Mu has often been out of control since then, and it is really difficult for Miss Mu and her grandmother." ”
I only heard Mu Qinglan continue: "Later, I lived with my grandmother and Aunt Yang, and when I was eleven years old, my master 'Meiyue Shitai' came to teach me martial arts, but my father only came back once a month. My grandmother always thought that my father had killed my mother, so she hated him very much. My father has always been very filial to my grandmother, until my grandmother died three years ago, and my father used the gift of a son-in-law to wear linen and filial piety for her old man's death. ”
Qin Chuan said: "Miss Mu, listening to you say this, you have no resentment against your father's behavior, why do you treat him like that?"
Mu Qinglanyu's cheeks flushed, she glanced at him obliquely, and said, "Actually, I only figured out these things in the past few days. It used to be my grandmother's words that made me resentful of my father, and it was you...... A few words from you that day made me think of this! Thank you, Brother Qin!"
Qin Chuan also blushed and said, "I'm talking nonsense, I forgot what I said, if I offend, please don't take Miss Mu to heart!"
At this moment, the mule cart slowly stopped, and I could only hear the coachman with a thick Guanzhong accent say: "Miss, Childe, Le Youyuan has arrived, you two can come out to enjoy the scenery!"
The two got off the mule cart and stood on the slope of Leyouyuan, with a bird's-eye view to the north, and Chang'an City was in full view. That Leyou was originally the highest point of Chang'an City, the scale is very large, the terrain is high and flat, and it is the best place to climb high and enjoy the scenery.
I only heard the coachman say: "It's winter, and the snow on the trees and grass hasn't dried yet, and there are very few tourists." If it's in spring and autumn, there are many people who come here to climb and play!"
Mu Qinglan looked around at no one, so she said to the coachman: "Big brother with handlebars, you can wait for us here for a while, let's look around and go back!" The coachman nodded and said, "Who will come to play this season, whatever you two." As long as you don't forget to pay the money!"
