Chapter 59

These bells had been hanging for more than a month, so Huo Lan wouldn't be confused if it was the wind or something else.Right now the bell is ringing so abruptly, after a sudden ringing, it immediately quiets down, and then there is another burst of jingling, it is clear that something accidentally touched the thread that fastened the bell, and was startled by the sound, and then untie the thread and pull the bell again. ring up.

The wire that tied the bell was hung so low that ordinary animals couldn't touch it. Besides, how could there be so many animals wandering outside looking for food at night at this time of year?

Huo Lan turned over and sat up, pushing the person next to the pillow.

"There seems to be someone outside. I'll go out and have a look. Take your dagger and look at the door. If anyone approaches, blow the whistle and tell me to come back."

After living a new life, Huo Lan has prepared enough things that he can think of and can prepare in advance. He has rehearsed the coping methods for various emergencies countless times in his mind, and he is not panicking at the moment. Yun Miaoqing was able to hold on for a while and waited until she came back before she took up the knife and left.

As soon as she walked down the top of the mountain, she heard "cuckoo" and "quack" noises. It was the chickens and ducks she and Yun Miaoqing raised, and there were several different human voices with these chickens and ducks.

"Boss, there are chickens here! There are also ducks, we can have a real treat tonight!"

"Damn it, wipe your saliva, it's been a long time since you lit a fire. His grandma, who made so many ghost wires and bells on this mountain to wrap me around... Come here first and shine a light on me. "

"It's not that I don't light it, the wind here is too strong to start the fire..."

"I see that these chickens and ducks should be raised by people. Is there someone living on this mountain? Why don't we keep our voice down?"

"Shut up, what are you afraid of? This place is so bad that every day should not be called. I wish someone could live here, so I just snatched his house, so I don't have to drink the northwest wind every day."

Huo Lan hid in the dark and counted, there were four people in total.In troubled times, formerly good people would do evil in order to survive. Huo Lan wasn't sure what kind of people the other party was, and he didn't kill them as soon as they came up.

"Who is there?"

The movement here attracted the attention of the remaining three people. After seeing the figure of the person who came, the man called the boss showed a lewd smile: "I thought it was some kind of powerful character. It turned out to be a woman. That's all right now, Here comes another woman, you don't have to fight over that one."

According to this meaning, they also kidnapped a woman before this.Huo Lan's eyes turned cold, since he is a person who does many evil things, there is no need to show mercy.She didn't talk nonsense, and directly greeted them with knives. These three people were just a few ordinary gangsters. Wherever they were her opponents, they were killed one after another within a few strokes.

Putting the knife back in its sheath, Huo Lan dragged the bodies of the four to the edge of the cliff and threw them down one by one. He paid attention on the way, but he didn't find the woman they were talking about nearby.

She was thinking about Yun Miaoqing who was left alone in the house, so she didn't dare to go far to search, and went back after disposing of the bodies of these people.

"Listen to you, these people may have accomplices, we'd better go down the mountain and take a look. This mountain is good, after all, there are only two of us, once surrounded by people, it will be really hard to fly."

Huo Lan thought Yun Miaoqing's words made sense, but she was worried about Yun Miaoqing going down the mountain, but she was even more worried about leaving Yun Miaoqing alone on the mountain. Tighten her, and only after protecting herself first under any circumstances, did she agree to go down the mountain with Yun Miaoqing to inquire about the current situation outside.

It was almost dawn at this time, and the two searched along the way, and when they reached the mountainside, they saw three gangsters and a young woman with disheveled hair and her mouth gagged with hemp rope.The woman's clothes were messy, she might have been violated already, Huo Lan was furious, and stepped forward to kill those gangsters one by one.

It's too cheap to just kill them. If it wasn't for the fact that Yun Miaoqing was still watching and didn't want to stain Yun Miaoqing's eyes, she would have made them die even worse, and let them experience torture and humiliation taste.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Seeing that the gangsters were all dead, Yun Miaoqing came out from the hiding place and went behind the woman to help untie the rope that bound her.

Huo Lan stood directly in front of the woman, leaning over to remove the hemp rope stuffed in her mouth.The hair that originally covered the face parted to the two sides as the woman raised her head. Huo Lan paused and said in surprise, "Wang Cuicui?"

When Huo Lan recognized Wang Cuicui, Wang Cuicui also saw Huo Lan's face clearly, but she didn't dare to recognize it. After all, Huo Lan in her impression was obviously a man. Although the voice of the person in front of her was a little low, she was a woman... …

She turned her head in a daze, and after seeing Yun Miaoqing behind her clearly, she looked back at the person in front of her in disbelief.

"Huo Lan? You, why do you..."

The two hadn't seen each other for several years, and when they met again, both of them had changed a lot. For a while, they seemed to have a lot to ask, but in the embarrassing scene before them, they couldn't ask anything.

The two of them just looked at each other wordlessly, and it was Yun Miaoqing who finally broke the silence: "Miss Wang, Huo Lan and I live on this mountain, do you want to take a shower and change clothes first?"

After Yun Miaoqing asked, Wang Cuicui nodded as if waking up from a dream: "You can borrow my clothes, and I can wash them casually in the river. I have been out for so long, Brother Meng... my husband must be in a hurry, I have to go back and find him quickly."

Such a cold Tianhe River needs courage too much. On the way back, Yun Miaoqing persuaded her a few words, and Wang Cuicui insisted on going as soon as possible.After all, this is a family matter, seeing Wang Cuicui's insistence on this, Huo Lan and Yun Miaoqing couldn't say anything more.

The two brought Wang Cuicui to the stream, Yun Miaoqing worried that Wang Cuicui would commit suicide after such a tragedy, and asked Huo Lan to go back to get the clothes, and stay behind to watch over others.

It's not far from the top of the mountain, Huo Lan hesitated and agreed.She ran back to the room to get her clothes in three steps at a time, and hurried back again.

As soon as Huo Lan arrived, Wang Cuicui was about to go ashore. She had just been washed for a while, and she could see that she was really anxious.Huo Lan put the clean clothes by the stream, stepped back from Yun Miaoqing and turned her back, and turned back only after Wang Cuicui got dressed.

Huo Lan was taken care of by Wang Cuicui's family when she was a child. In this troubled world, she encountered difficulties and couldn't justify not helping her.But if she wants to send Wang Cuicui back, she must go to a farther place, so will Yun Miaoqing be in danger...

She was still struggling, but Yun Miaoqing had already said to Wang Cuicui: "The world is so chaotic now, Huo Lan and I don't feel at ease with you alone, let's send you off."

Huo Lan heard this and looked towards Yun Miaoqing, Yun Miaoqing smiled back at her.This person is really... usually messy and messy, but when encountering things, he is always so gentle and considerate, and never makes things difficult for her.Huo Lan's heart warmed up, and Yun Miaoqing's hands hidden in his sleeves were intertwined.

Since Yun Miaoqing had already made a decision for her, she had nothing to think about.The two asked where Wang Cuicui lived now, and sent Wang Cuicui back together.

"You two don't need to be so cautious, I will treat it as if I was bitten by a dog when I went out, and I won't seek death for it." On the way back, Wang Cuicui told Huo Lan about her situation over the years.

After she parted with Huo Lan back then, she returned home with a desperate heart, waiting to marry Qu Meng according to the arrangement of the elders in the family after the new year, but Qu Meng heard from nowhere that she would rather run away than marry him , abruptly postponed the wedding for half a year, and was beaten for it, and lay on the bed for half a month.

Wang Cuicui was moved in her heart, and she didn't feel so disgusted with the marriage anymore. Once half a year came, she obeyed the wishes of the two families and married Qu Meng as his wife.

"I have been married to Brother Meng for more than a year and have not conceived a child. His mother scolded me every day and said that he would marry Brother Meng again. Brother Meng loved me and couldn't bear to be blamed by them all day long at home, so he brought me I ran out and did some small business elsewhere, and then there were officers and soldiers fighting everywhere, so Brother Meng and I fled here..."

When Wang Cuicui talked about this, she even had a smile on her face, and she could still laugh after going through such a bad thing. It is conceivable that Qu Meng really made her feel happy in her heart.

"...I came out to relieve myself last night. I don't want to let that group of thieves take you away. Don't tell Brother Meng about this. He is a hothead. If he finds out, he will definitely take revenge on me. Even if everyone is dead, he will be angry. For a long time."

Huo Lan and Yun Miaoqing agreed immediately.

It was very cold, Wang Cuicui tightened her neckline, and smiled at the two people who accompanied her: "You two are so kind, you are willing to lend my clothes and talk to me after knowing that I was insulted by those thieves, and you don't think I'm dirty... "

"Miss Wang, it's those thieves who did the bad things. It's a shame that they are not you." Yun Miaoqing said seriously, "You can survive until we come to rescue you, and you have the courage to face the days ahead. You are very strong and worth it. Respectable people, don’t blame yourself for the fault.”

Wang Cuicui's eyes turned red, she spoke lightly before, but how could the pain those bad guys caused her be so light!Just because she can laugh doesn't mean she's not in pain. In fact, she vomited several times last night.

"Thank you for telling me this." Wang Cuicui quickly wiped her eyes, sniffed and said, "I will survive, brother Meng is still waiting for me, I will live with him well, and live a long life ..."

"Tell us about your husband-in-law again." Yun Miaoqing said to Wang Cuicui, seeing that Wang Cuicui was sad.This trick worked very well. When Qu Meng was mentioned, Wang Cuicui's mood gradually improved again.

She and Qu Meng rested outside a nearby village where many simple huts were built. When Huo Lan sent Wang Cuicui here, he accidentally saw the people of Maoxi Village.

In the previous life, when Yun Miaoqing died of illness, these people had planned to escape, and it was almost time to come here after counting the time.She looked around, but she didn't find the aunt in the house where she stayed in her previous life in the crowd. She was thinking about asking if she should ask, when she saw these people surrounded Wang Cuicui.

"Where have you been, Mrs. Qu! Your husband is in a hurry!"

"Your husband didn't see you when he woke up in the middle of the night, so he woke us up and asked about it."

"We are afraid that you will meet a bad person. We have been worried all day. If you go elsewhere in the future, you will have to tell your husband-in-law!"

Everyone chattered, Wang Cuicui looked around over the crowd and asked, "Where's Brother Meng?"

"He's looking for you, before dawn!"

I went there before dawn, and I haven't come back yet... Wang Cuicui had a bad feeling in her heart, and she was going to find someone immediately.

"Hey, don't go, you are looking for one, when will you find it?"

"That's right. Your husband may be back in a while, so you can just wait for it."

Ordinarily, what these people are telling is the truth, but Wang Cuicui is just restless, she always feels panicked in her heart, and can't calm down for a moment.

"How about this, you have only been here for a few days, and you are not familiar with this area. Huo Lan knows Qu Meng, so I will ask Huo Lan to help you find it?" Yun Miaoqing suggested.Wang Cuicui looked at Huo Lan anxiously, but couldn't say a word, as if she was lost.

Huo Lan had also experienced a similar predicament in her previous life. Thanks to someone helping her and Yun Miaoqing, she and Yun Miaoqing were able to save themselves from danger, so she could almost empathize with Wang Cuicui's fear at this time.She looked around, there were a lot of people here, and the village had even formed a militia to prevent unrest, and ordinary bandits would not dare to come here easily.Besides, she had lived in Maoxi Village for a period of time in her previous life, and she also knew these people in Maoxi Village, and knew that these people had good hearts, so it shouldn't be a big problem to entrust Yun Miaoqing to them to look after them for a long time.

After Yun Miaoqing settled down, Huo Lan walked for several hours along the direction where those people last saw Qu Meng, and it was near dusk that he saw the person he was looking for in a mountain depression.

There were not only Qu Meng, but also a large group of people. Huo Lan roughly counted them, there were probably about twenty of them.Different from the group of thieves who appeared in front of the chicken coop last night, these people were all carrying big swords and round waists. They were probably robbers who robbed houses before the war.

Qu Meng was lying on the ground covered in blood. If he hadn't been pumping from time to time, Huo Lan would have wondered if he was dead.

She promised that Wang Cuicui would take him back, and it's fine if she didn't find him. Since she found him, she would take Qu Meng away even if she really turned into a corpse.It's just that there are too many people on the other side, Huo Lan can't do anything at the moment, she lies down on the mountain quietly, waiting for the dark.

Suppressing bandits is no longer a one-off or two-time thing for her. When the gangsters are asleep in the middle of the night, Huo Lan deftly kills the vigilantes, and then quietly kills the rest of them one by one. .

"Qu Meng? Qu Meng?" Huo Lan wiped the blood from his face, came to Qu Meng and called him twice tentatively.

Qu Meng let out a "huh" and wailed like a ghost amidst the corpses all over the floor.His body was full of knife wounds, and Huo Lan couldn't do anything to deal with him, so he cut a few branches and tied them together to make a board, fixed Qu Meng on it, and dragged the mop back step by step.

"Wang Cuicui is found, she is fine."

"It was she who asked me to come to you, and she is still waiting for you..."

"Don't die, Qu Meng, I have worked so hard to save you, if you die on the way, I will not just chop off your hand!"

In the past, Huo Lan hated Qu Meng very much, not only because Qu Meng always wanted to trouble her, but also because Qu Meng was impulsive and reckless, in her eyes he looked like a big fool, and she didn't bother to associate with such a fool as Qu Meng.But tonight, I don't know whether I heard too many good words from Wang Cuicui who praised Qu Meng, or the pale moonlight brought back too many bad memories for Huo Lan.

If Qu Meng died, how should she explain to Wang Cuicui?Wang Cuicui has only experienced those pains and tortures. It can be seen that the reason why she can still smile strongly is because of Qu Meng. If Qu Meng is gone...

In my previous life, I was guarding in front of Yun Miaoqing's grave, and it was such a pale night, what was I thinking at that time?At that time, she hadn't realized her feelings for Yun Miaoqing, losing Yun Miaoqing made her feel so painful, if it were changed to now, she dare not think what would happen to her if the person who was about to die was Yun Miaoqing.

Huo Lan hopes that this road will be longer, and it is best not to let Wang Cuicui see Qu Meng like this forever, but she also hopes that this road will be shorter, so that Wang Cuicui and Qu Meng can spend more time together.

No matter what she thinks, the road is so far away.

"Is Huo Lan back? Brother Meng! Brother Meng!" As soon as Huo Lan's figure appeared, Wang Cuicui stumbled and ran over.Being dragged back by Huo Lan in this way, even if she hasn't seen Qu Meng on the branch, how can she not guess what happened?

Yun Miaoqing followed closely to Huo Lan's side, bent down to check Qu Meng's injuries, stood up and shook her head at Huo Lan.

With such an injury, it is hard for a god to save him, so it is already good to be able to come back with this breath.

"Huo Lan, Miss Yun, do you have a way to save him, please, please!" Wang Cuicui couldn't wake up Qu Meng, and kowtowed to Huo Lan and Yun Miaoqing like crazy. She didn't know Qu Meng Most of this injury can't be cured, but what if, what if?Huo Lan and Miss Yun's family are so capable, if they can...

Huo Lan stood there at a loss, she understood Wang Cuicui's thoughts, and it was because of her understanding that she was even more sad.

"Uh—" At this moment, the person on the mop board woke up.

"Cui Cui..."

"I'm here!" Wang Cuicui heard Qu Meng's call for the first time, and immediately turned her head and rushed to Qu Meng's side to hold his hand tightly, "I'm here, Brother Meng, it's me, I'm here!"

"Are you okay..."

"I'm fine, I'm fine, Brother Meng, you have to hold on and get better, you know? We still have a lot of days to live, you have to be fine...you must be fine..." Wang Cuicui broke down in tears.

"Is Huo, Huo Lan here?"

Huo Lan suddenly heard Qu Meng calling her, and was taken aback for a moment before leaning over beside Qu Meng and answering in a low voice.

"Cui Cui... used to like you, from now on, you, you take good care of her..." Qu Meng was injured too badly, his eyes were covered with blood, and he couldn't open them very much, and he didn't notice Huo Lan's female attire , and also regarded Huo Lan as an old rival in love.

Huo Lan didn't know how to respond to this request, so she heard Wang Cuicui crying loudly: "What are you talking about! When have I ever liked someone else, I only like you, and you will be the only one in my life. You have to get better... "

Probably because she was very angry, she also hit Qu Meng twice, but she felt sorry for Qu Meng's injury, and she raised her hand high and then slapped him lightly.

"I like you too, you, you...uh!" Qu Meng raised his hand with difficulty, as if trying to wipe away the tears on his beloved wife's face, but this breath finally came to an end, and he could only carry the unfinished words. Words and unfinished things left with regret.

"Brother Meng! Ah!!!!" Wang Cuicui's cry was piercing, and suddenly, she pulled out the saber from Huo Lan's waist.

"What are you doing!" Huo Lan was startled, and quickly grabbed Wang Cuicui's arm. Yun Miaoqing also rushed to pull him away, but was pushed hard by Wang Cuicui, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"Miaoqing!" Huo Lan was in a hurry now, Wang Cuicui couldn't beat her when she really tried to move her hands, but just when she was about to tear Wang Cuicui away forcefully, the outstretched hand suddenly shrank.

Under the moonlight, Wang Cuicui stared straight at her, as if she won not her own knife, but Wang Cuicui's life.Huo Lan never flinched in the face of the most ferocious villains and beasts, but was stabbed half a step back by the overwhelming hatred and desolation in Wang Cuicui's eyes at this time.She thought about that day again for no reason, whether someone persuaded her to come, but she didn't leave, even if she knew that she would freeze to death, she knelt in front of the grave for a day and a night without eating or drinking.

What were you thinking at that time?This question came up in Huo Lan's mind again, and within a moment of hesitation, Wang Cuicui had already slammed into Huo Lan's knife.

"Brother Meng...you, wait for me, I'm looking for you..."

With a "bang", the knife that the two had been fighting for a long time fell to the ground.Wang Cuicui died lying beside Qu Meng, and Huo Lan stared blankly at the scene, without moving a step for a long time.

The author has something to say: I’m sorry that it’s a bit late today, this is probably the most abusive chapter of this article, I’d rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times_(:з」∠)_

There was Wen Wen yesterday, let me talk about it again here, it must be Tian Wen HE, Huo Lan and Yun Miaoqing will grow old well!
