I am fish

Zhen Wenjun fell, and when he got up again, the carriage was already a hundred paces away, and even the vicious dog ran beside the carriage with its tail between its legs.

The flying sand and rocks rolled up by the black dragon in the air slapped her face and body, which was extremely painful.She gritted her teeth and stood up, a piece of iron whizzed and sliced ​​at her head.Zhen Wenjun hurriedly fell to the ground to avoid, and was blown by dry grass again.

After the dragon hangs, it flips crazily, and the majestic Changge ruins are almost blown apart.

"Let me get out of the car! I want to get out of the car!" The old man was pushed into the car by Zhen Wenjun, the groom fled quickly, and the carriage had already flown to a safe place. The man grabbed the car door and wanted to get out, but was stopped by A Xu and A He:

"Get out of the car now, are you going to die! You can't go down!"

"This old man is a defender of the city! This old man wants to protect Master Changge's last legacy! Let me go! I can't abandon the city and run away! I can't live up to Master Changge's last entrustment!"

The people on both sides couldn't understand each other, but they were busy trying to stop them while they were about to get out of the carriage. Even if they didn't understand what the other party was saying, they could still communicate with their body and voice. There was no gap in the chaotic carriage.

"This old man is crazy!" Ah Liao wished he could knock him out with a palm, but when he looked back, the little girl's face was as still as water, and she didn't intend to persuade him at all.

Long Hang rolled faster and faster, and kept chasing after the carriage.The brown horse is young and strong, and its horsepower lasts long, and the more it runs, the more powerful it is.The old dog sticking out its tongue and following the old man and the little girl was already exhausted, stopped, and had no strength to run again, watching the carriage getting farther and farther reluctantly, and did not bark.

The old man burst into tears and wanted to go down, but the little girl pushed him back:

"I go."

Everyone was trying to stop the old man, but unexpectedly the old man did not get out of the carriage, and the little girl did.

The little girl jumped out of the car, rolled on the ground and stood up nimbly, moving forward with difficulty against the wind.The clothes on her body were pulled back in waves, her eyes were full of sand and she couldn't open them.Even so difficult, she still showed no fear, and walked step by step towards the ruins of Changge in the center of the whirlwind.

"Little Xiao!" The old man yelled for her to come back quickly, because things might be thrown out at any time and smash her to pieces.

Xiao Xiao moved forward without fear, the huge black dragon in the sky became more and more clear in her field of vision, Xiao Xiao's legs were almost off the ground, and at close range she suddenly saw the small drum that had been with her all the time in the black dragon. flashed by.

This is not the first time Xiaoxiao has seen the black dragon.

Growing up on the grassland, you may see it several times a year.Sometimes the black dragon is very big and scary, and sometimes the black dragon disappears after turning around in the air.

She has been dependent on her grandfather since she was born, and her whole world is only this dead city and the distant sea in her dreams.

It is very difficult to go to the seaside, and it takes two days to ride a horse to get there.She is too young to ride a horse, and grandpa is too old to ride a horse, so she has never seen the sea.

Grandpa is not her own grandpa. Grandpa said that she was picked up in the grassland. I don't know who left the unwanted child.He was dying, and he needed someone to continue to guard Master Changge's treasures instead, so he saved her.

When he was six years old, Xiao Xiao asked his grandfather: "If you don't need to defend the city, will you save me?"

Without even thinking about it, Grandpa replied, "No."

But Xiao Xiao didn't care, she only knew that Grandpa was her benefactor.After grandpa died, she would continue to stay in Changge Country instead of him.Although she didn't even know what Master Changge said by her grandfather looked like, although she wanted to go to the beach very much, and yearned to be close at hand, but she never had the opportunity to go to the beach to see what the sea looks like.

Changge country is everything to grandpa, and it is a place that grandpa has guarded all his life. Xiaoxiao can't let it be swallowed by the black dragon.

Xiao Xiao is not afraid of the black dragon, but the black dragon in front of her is bigger and more terrifying than all the black dragons she has ever met in memory. She is not sure if she can defeat this devil, but she must try!

Xiao Xiao's thin body swayed from side to side in the strong wind. She pointed her saber at the black dragon's belly and yelled, trying to scare it away.

The black dragon is not afraid of her at all, getting closer and bigger.

Xiao Xiao fought the black dragon to the death, suddenly his heels sank, and he looked down, the long-haired dog was biting her pants tightly, not letting go.

"Let go of me, Mao!" Xiao Xiao shook his legs vigorously, trying to shake Mao away.Not only did Ah Mao not let go, but he kept pulling her back.

"Amao, don't mess around! I'm going to kill the black dragon!" One person and one dog pulled each other and no one could win.

"Who else do you want to kill, you bastard!"

Just when Zhen Wenjun flew up to hug Xiao Xiao and Amao into his arms, a huge force blew them all into the sky.

Xiao Xiao and Amao screamed in fright, and Zhen Wenjun shouted: "Hold me tight!" and hugged the tree trunk at hand.

Xiao Xiao hugged Zhen Wenjun's waist and Ah Mao bit Xiao Xiao's clothes, the two of them and a dog were blown like long rags in the strong wind.It is very rare to have such a tree in the grassland. Although it is only a small tree, it can save a life.But soon Zhen Wenjun felt that this life-saving tree began to shake, and it was likely to be uprooted at any time.

Absolutely not going on like this!

Zhen Wenjun tried hard to change her posture and couldn't open her eyes. The words "involuntary" surged in her mind.

Going on like this is not an option, if you are sucked into the center by Long Hang, you may only have a dead end.

It took Zhen Wenjun a lot of effort to see his surroundings clearly. Just downwind, there were two huge rocks standing motionless in the storm.If you can turn the tree trunk sideways and get stuck in front of the stone, you might be able to escape.

You only get one chance.Whether the wind direction is slightly off or she is not stuck, there is only one possibility of death.

Right now there is no other possibility, only a fight!

Just as Zhen Wenjun made up his mind, the little tree was rolled up by its roots with a "huh", and the two of them and a dog were immediately sucked backward and upward like a kite with a disconnected thread.Xiao Xiao was so frightened that he yelled that he didn't dare to let go, he held Zhen Wenjun tightly, and buried his face in her back.Ah Mao and Xiao Xiao had exactly the same posture, and Zhen Wenjun couldn't help himself, almost being strangled by them.

The sand and inexplicable pots and pans were flying in front of him, knocking on Zhen Wenjun's head from time to time, and he couldn't see where the two stones were.Zhen Wenjun was in pain and angry, so he could only rely on his body's feeling to forcefully hang the tree trunk forward.

Hang up empty.

Zhen Wenjun was startled, maybe he failed.

It’s over.

Just when she was flustered, her hands trembled, and she dragged herself and Xiaoxiao Amao back.It worked!How lucky!Heartbroken, Zhen Wenjun firmly grasped the tree trunk and pulled them back. After hiding in the boulder, he pulled the tree trunk hard to prevent being blown away again.

Zhen Wenjun and Xiao Xiao, whose hair was messed up like a chicken coop, breathed a sigh of relief when Long Hang crossed the border.

"Woof! Wang Wang!" Amao yelled into the distance, and Zhen Wenjun, who was lying on the ground, seemed to hear Wei Tingxu's voice.

"I'm here..." Zhen Wenjun raised his hand feebly, and responded with a weak voice.

After looking for Amao's voice, Wei Tingxu walked in the front.

Zhen Wenjun saw that she was walking too fast, holding her back in a hurry, and immediately stood up.

Wei Tingxu anxiously searched for Zhen Wenjun's shadow in the desolate land, and all the panicked guesses in his heart must have fallen to the ground and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that the expression on her face gradually relaxed, Zhen Wenjun immediately ran up and supported her before Wei Tingxu fell down.Zhen Wenjun himself was exhausted, and the two fell on the grass together.

"I'm so lucky, God won't let me die." Zhen Wenjun grinned.

"It's not that God won't let you die, it's me who won't let you die." Wei Tingxu took the initiative to kiss her, and Zhen Wenjun supported her to kiss back.When the two were lingering forgetting everything, they felt that someone was watching them.Zhen Wenjun opened his eyes slightly, and saw Xiao Xiao and Amao staring at them from left to right.

"Cough." Zhen Wenjun helped Wei Tingxu up, pointed to the distance, and said in the Central Plains, "Your grandfather is over there!"

Xiao Xiao said in Changge language: "You can speak Changge language, you have said it before. What were you doing just now? Talking to each other."

Xiao Xiao said a bunch of unknown words to Zhen Wenjun in a daze, and Wei Tingxu asked her: "What is this little lady talking about?"

Zhen Wenjun said "Ah?" as if he knew that Xiao Xiao was talking to her: "What are you talking about, girl? Your grandpa is there, then! Find your grandpa!"

The carriage came back, Ah Liao and others got out of the carriage, and the old man also got off the ground.Seeing that Xiao Xiao and Amao were both alive and crying, he got ready to run wildly, and moved an inch with all his strength.

A Liao was about to die in a hurry, and A Xu carried him in front of Xiao Xiao.

"Grandpa." Xiao Xiao said, "I'm sorry, I failed to kill the black dragon and let it escape."

The old man coughed violently, waved his hands in pain, looked at Changgeguo who was so sucked by Long Hang that he could no longer see his original face, and was silent for a long time before opening his mouth: "This is God's will, it's all God's will. Hey... I didn't expect I have guarded it for so many years, but in the end I still couldn't keep the last trace of Changge Kingdom. Our motherland is completely gone..."

The old man fell on the ground and cried bitterly. Zhen Wenjun could understand why he was crying bitterly, and felt a little uncomfortable seeing him like this.

"Old man, the past is in the past, the most important thing is to look forward." Zhen Wenjun knelt beside him, first comforted him in Central Plains dialect, and then softly said in a long song, "If the ancestors know that they left so For a long time, if you still try your best to protect this memory, they must be very pleased."

The old man still bowed on the ground for a long time, and got up with the help of Zhen Wenjun.

But Xiao Xiao knelt down and kowtowed to Zhen Wenjun.

"What are you doing?" Zhen Wenjun almost blurted out a long song, but fortunately he held back, and asked in a nonchalant manner.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between them. Although they don't speak the same language, they can communicate well.

"You are Xiao Xiao's savior, she deserves a big gift to you, so just accept it." The old man said.

Ah He smiled and said, "Is she thanking you for saving your life?"

Zhen Wenjun said: "I didn't intend to save her. She hugged me, and she saved herself. Come on, stop kowtowing. Look, your head is broken."

The old man looked steadily at Xiao Xiao, then at Zhen Wenjun who saved their grandparents and even Amao, and said slowly: "Xiao Xiao, you go with the savior."

Xiao Xiao stood up abruptly, and looked at the old man in amazement: "Grandpa...you don't want me?"

The old man panted twice and wanted to cough, but he didn't have the strength to cough anymore.

"Take me...back to the city."

The old man couldn't walk anymore, and Xiao Xiao planned to carry him back.Zhen Wenjun couldn't bear the suffering of such a young child, so he volunteered to carry it instead of her.

"Why do you want to go back?" Zhen Wenjun asked the old man in a low voice.

The old man opened his mouth in pain and was unable to speak. The twists and turns just now exhausted the last of his strength in the elderly.After a while, Zhen Wenjun thought he was dead, so he said quietly again: "to... left..."

Xiao Xiao held on to Zhen Wenjun's clothes along the way and did not let go, while Amao ran in front, turning his head and barking at them twice as he walked, as if afraid that they would go the wrong way.

Amao seems to know the old man's mind, it knows where the old man is going.

Wei Tingxu and the others followed Zhen Wenjun and the others over the gravel and entered the city with difficulty.

At this time, the sun had completely disappeared, and the coachman lit the torch and walked to the front. He followed Amao wherever he walked, illuminating the way for everyone.

"It looks like he's looking for something," Ash said.

Ah Liao secretly "ah" when he heard this, "Could it be the secret method for girls to give birth?"

Ah Liao walked faster and faster happily. Amao and the half-dead old man led them to a collapsed hall. The old man asked Zhen Wenjun to let him down, and he wanted to go up by himself to show respect to Lord Changge.

Zhen Wenjun didn't stop him and let him go.

The old man could hardly walk. He knelt on the ground and climbed up step by step.

He is a devout believer of Master Changge. Zhen Wenjun looked at the thin back of the old man, and wondered what kind of glorious dynasty Changge Kingdom used to be, and what kind of charm their king had to make the people so loyal.At this moment, she must not step forward to help, otherwise it would be an intrusion on his loyalty.

The old man struggled to climb up the stairs, while Xiao Xiao and Amao followed him and protected him until he climbed to the front of the main hall.The old man kowtowed on the high stone steps. Zhen Wenjun looked up casually, and after a pause, she saw a familiar pattern.

In the middle of the stone tablet in front of the damaged main hall was a pattern of a black bird, almost exactly the same as the straw black bird seen in Xie Fuchen's study that day!

Zhen Wenjun's heart was pounding and he took a deep breath.

That day, she asked Bu Jie to investigate her mother's life experience, but she never thought that she would actually find her mother's hometown on the way to reopen the Wanxiang Road.Long song, long song...

When Baichuan goes east to the sea, when will it return?

Zhen Wenjun finally understood something that he never cared about when he was a child. This folk song that his mother loved to sing repeatedly had such profound meaning that he couldn't help crying.

"Wen Jun?" Seeing her crying, Wei Tingxu handed over the handkerchief suspiciously.

"The country is dead, but he is still loyal. This is a pity."

Although my mother's hometown has been in ruins, this journey of "searching for secrets" is still fruitful.Zhen Wenjun knew that the ancestor of "A Qiong" came from Changge, and more importantly, let her understand that Xie Fuchen was not lying.

The small grave on Xishan Mountain indeed belonged to Grandma, and Xie Fuchen did know Grandma.

Grandmother, should really be called "A Qiong", a descendant of "Su Lan".

What does Su Lan mean? Is it a person's name?

Perhaps "Sulan" left her homeland for Dayu with a group of Changge people. Maybe it was because she was fed up with the desolation of the grassland, or she wanted to open up a wider territory. Maybe, like them, she wanted to open up again. Universal road. "Su Lan" left the vast and magnificent but barren Gulun Grassland and went to a new country, and only then did she have everything after that, and only then did Zhen Wenjun become what she is today.

Lying on the carriage on the return journey, Zhen Wenjun has been thinking about one thing.

What is the relationship between Grandma and Xie Fuchen?

"do you hate me?"

Xie Fuchen didn't see anyone before he died, but he called her and asked this inexplicable question.

This problem becomes even more strange after the appearance of "The Tomb of the Old Man Aqiong".If the Xuanniao is the symbol of the Changge Clan, then Zhen Wenjun must have seen the exact same pattern in his mother's place, but Xie Fuchen kept this pattern in the books in the study.The grass weaving picture of black bird is woven from a single piece of grass, and the weaving technique is proficient, unlike ordinary people who can weave it, it must have come from someone who is very familiar with this pattern.

It was made up by my mother.

Zhen Wenjun could not deceive himself.

The straw weaving black bird picture in Xie Fuchen's collection is very likely to be compiled by Grandma.

Xie Fuchen and Xie Taihang have slightly similar looks.

She is a bit similar to Xie Taixing.

And she and Xie Fuchen...

do you hate me?

So, very good, very good.

Ah Lai.This is the small print your mother gave you, and you shouldn't give it up.

In the confused dream, Zhen Wenjun returned to the small cell in Runing Prison, Xie Fuchen was still in front of her eyes.

She denied that I am not Ah Lai, and that Ah Lai is not a small character chosen by my mother.In the future, only Zhen Wenjun will not have Alai.

do you hate me thenXie Fuchen kept asking.

hatred!Of course hate!

do you hate me?

Xie Fuchen gazed at Zhen Wenjun with tears in his penetrating eyes, and asked repeatedly.Once, Zhen Wenjun couldn't answer.

do you hate me?No, it may not be me that you hate.You know that things are going sour, you know that some things don't make sense, that some things are too coincidental.

Zhen Wenjun opened his eyes suddenly, covered in sweat.

Xiao Xiao kept shaking her.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Zhen Wenjun woke up in a daze, the panic and feeling of being overwhelmed in the dream just now was still pressing on his chest, Zhen Wenjun habitually glanced at Wei Tingxu who was sleeping beside him, and asked Xiao Xiao in a low voice .

"Pee." Xiao Xiao said.

Wei Tingxu also woke up and opened his eyes to look at them.

"What?" Zhen Wenjun asked back.

Xiaoxiao: "Shhhhhh".

"You want to relieve yourself. Uncle Fu, stop the carriage for a while!" Zhen Wenjun stopped the carriage.

In the carriage, Ah Xu and Ah He had their left and right arms and legs on Ah Liao, and Ah Liao was lying down to sleep with a wooden box in his arms, which was very precious.When Zhen Wenjun took Xiao Xiao out of the carriage, he almost laughed out loud when he saw Ah Liao's appearance.

Ah Liao, who didn't notice the pattern on the stone railing in front of the main hall, waited for the wooden box, and pointed to the engraved black bird pattern on it. He was overjoyed, and said yes, it was the pattern, and we found the right place!

But this wooden box was as strong as gold, and A Liao couldn't open it even after racking his brains.

Two days ago, the old city guard dug out the wooden box Ah Liao was holding in his arms from the depths of the hall, handed it to Zhen Wenjun and passed away not long after.Before he died, he asked Xiao Xiao to kneel down and recognize Zhen Wenjun as his mother. Xiao Xiao knelt down as soon as he said he would, and called his mother.

Wei Tingxu: "What did she call you?"

"I don't know either!" Zhen Wenjun really had a headache, how could Grandma recognize her casually, isn't it bad to recognize a sister?It doesn't matter if you recognize an aunt, you won't be called grandma anyway.

The old man said to Zhen Wenjun with the last remaining strength: "Xiaoxiao has been lonely since she was a child, and she yearns for the sea the most, but I am too old to take her there. You probably have to go through the sea when you return to the Central Plains. Can you, can you take her with you?" Go...to see the sea, even just a glance..."

Xiao Xiao is a transparent child, knowing that the old man will die soon, he doesn't say any useless words of comfort, but just sits by him and weeps quietly.

Zhen Wenjun saw Xiao Xiao twitched from crying, his forehead was also a big red spot, and he was still a bit stubborn in his pitiful appearance.Zhen Wenjun rubbed her head, feeling a little sore in her heart.

"Okay, I'll take her with me. But don't call me grandma, I don't want to have a half-grown daughter so soon."

The old man stretched his neck and asked, "So, you agree."

Zhen Wenjun nodded.

"Xiao Xiao doesn't want to leave Grandpa." Seeing Zhen Wenjun agree, Xiao Xiao cried even more sadly.

"Go, it's rare to meet a kind person... Although she is a descendant of Sulan, I can be sure that she is a good person and will not treat you badly. You don't belong to the Gulun Grassland. You are still young and shouldn't be here I have wasted my time, I should go to see the outside world. Master Changge's relics are entrusted to you..."

Xiao Xiao buried the old man in Changge City. She wanted to take Amao away, but Amao didn't want to, so he leaned against the edge of the old man's small grave and patted it with his paw. If there was no response, he fell down.

"Grandpa is guarding Changge, and Ah Mao is guarding grandpa." Zhen Wenjun did not know when he appeared behind Xiao Xiao, and gently tapped the back of Xiao Xiao's head with his bent knuckles, "Let's go, I will take you to see the sea. .”

After finally persuading Xiao Xiao to leave, Xiao Xiao was hungry and sleepy when he got into the carriage. Hearing her stomach growl, Zhen Wenjun seemed to see his former self, and smiled and handed her a dried leg of lamb.

"Auntie is so nice."

"...don't call me that."

Xiao Xiao just followed Zhen Wenjun with the wooden box in his arms, following Zhen Wenjun in a real way, just like her tail, never leaving for a moment.

Zhen Wenjun told her many times not to call her grandma, I am not your grandma, but Xiao Xiao just couldn't change her words.

"She has been following you, does she regard you as a mother?" No matter what language in the world, the pronunciation of calling mother is very similar.Wei Tingxu heard Xiaoxiao's screams happily, and Zhen Wenjun was also worried:

"Do you think this child has a bad brain? I just saved her by accident and she actually recognized me as her mother? Can this be called by the way!"

Wei Tingxu smiled: "It seems that Changge Kingdom really has a special way to get a child, but this child has grown so old since he came."

"Don't talk about it, A Liao has already taken the wooden box away to protect it day and night. Although he can't open it, A Liao believes that what is contained in the wooden box is the secret technique of giving birth to a girl."

Wei Tingxu: "Will the child be willing to give it to her?"

"She saw that Ah Liao cherished the wooden box more than she did, so she didn't say anything. She has feelings for the old man, but she doesn't have much for Changge Country. It's just that who should send this child to. Zi Zhuomo was annoyed , I will send her away when I think about it! Although this child may not be able to live a comfortable life after being abandoned since she was a child, it is a great thing for someone to take over, right! She can't be with us, except He can wiggle his saber a few times but he can’t see what kind of big tricks he’s hiding.”

"Come on." Wei Tingxu stopped her, "You keep it, I won't say much. What's more, people call you grandma, so how can you send her away. It may not be a good thing to keep a child by your side Bad thing, after all, the childbirth secret technique should be useless."

Ah Liao burst into tears when she heard this, and Ah Xu and Ahe persuaded her after a while.
