Wind and Rain Empire

Lan Xueyi, who was climbing and jumping all the way, flipped onto a big tree branch, and the lush leaves covered the ancient wooden house, so she pushed aside the leaves, jumped onto the cliff and walked towards the main entrance of the wooden house

At this time, a loud shout sounded not far away.

"Where did the little thief come from, dare to break into my master's house!"

Hearing a "whoosh", an arc knife flew towards the door of the wooden house like a ray of silver light.

Lan Xueyi quickly pulled out the curved knife and threw it back. A thick branch was cut off, and the figure on it jumped briskly onto another branch.

A skinny boy in a hood jumped out of a tree like a monkey

The little boy carefully looked at the blue snowsuit

"Who are you to trespass on my master's house? You are so barbaric, you cut off one of my favorite branches"

Lan Xueyi looked at the surrounding scenery and dismissed the skinny boy

"I'm Lan Xueyi, who are you? Do you strike when you meet? You even threw a knife."

The boy shouted loudly at Lan Xueyi

"My name is Li Xiaobao. You are a stranger. Who knows why you are here? Of course I want to try your skills."

The door of the wooden house opened, and an old man with white hair and white beard walked out slowly. It was Mr. Luo, Zhao Yuande's master.

Elderly man opens the door and squints, looking left and right

"Little Treasure, Master is taking a nap, why are you shouting?"

Li Xiaobao pointed at Lan Xueyi to Mr. Luo

"Master, here is a wild man who doesn't know where he came from!"

Lan Xueyi stared at Li Xiaobao with wide eyes, protesting dissatisfiedly

"What is a wild man! Are you polite?"

Li Xiaobao smiles

"Politeness?" Then he looked at Mr. Luo, "My master never taught me this."

Mr. Luo pushed Li Xiaobao aside, squinted his eyes and asked

"Are you Lan Xueyi?"

Lan Xueyi clasped her fists in salute

"Exactly, meet Mr. Luo!"

Then just as she knelt down to ask Mr. Luo, Mr. Luo pulled up a branch and hit Lan Xueyi, Lan Xueyi dodged and dodged

Mr. Luo squinted his eyes to listen to the movement, and said

"Well, the response is not bad"

Then Mr. Luo made a move, and after a series of moves, Lan Xueyi was knocked off the edge of the cliff and hung on a tree branch

Mr. Luo stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pull Lan Xueyi back

"That's right, it's much better than Xiaobao"

Lan Xueyi was rescued and returned to the wooden door

Unconvinced, Li Xiaobao said to Mr. Luo

"Master, you are biased, I climbed up by myself"

"You have been beaten so far by the teacher, how can the teacher know where you are?"

Lan Xueyi patted the ashes on his body and asked

"Mr. Luo, are you going to accept me as an apprentice?"

Mr. Luo squinted at Lan Xueyi, hesitating

"Hmm...not quite settled yet"

Lan Xueyi tilted her head to look into Mr. Luo's eyes, and tentatively asked

"Mr. Luo, I'm sorry junior, but you can't see clearly?"

Mr. Luo shouted

"Nonsense, if I can see clearly, do I still have to squint?"

Li Xiaobao looked at Lan Xueyi with disgust

"Master, if you want to accept someone, they may not be happy."

"You don't talk"

Mr. Luo stopped Li Xiaobao and turned to Lan Xueyi

"Seeing that you are a useful talent, I will accept you as a closed disciple. From now on, you will live with your nurse at the foot of the mountain. You will go up to the mountain to listen to morning lessons at Mao, practice at noon, and learn how to use soldiers at Shen Shi. Do you remember?"

Lan Xueyi was overjoyed and kowtowed to Mr. Luo

"Disciple remember, master!"

Mr. Luo went to the tree and picked a handful of leaves, and threw them at Lan Xueyi

Lan Xueyi dodged, and the leaves were "ping-pong-pong" piercing the rock like a knife

Mr. Luo nodded to Lan Xueyi and praised

"Sure enough, I didn't choose the wrong person."

Li Xiaobao squatted aside and complained unconvinced

"Master, have you boasted enough? Keep talking!"

"If you are excellent, why can't you praise it, but you are an excellent one, let the teacher boast!"

"Hey!"

Li Xiaobao pouted

Turning to the city of Xiangyang, the city is full of bustling scenes, the crowds are bustling, and the vendors are very lively. The three members of the Chen family got off the carriage

Chen Dong looked around, tugged at Chen Wang's sleeve and sighed

"Hey, this is a big city, much more lively than our small place!"

Chen Linlin asked with some concern

"Father, there are so many people on this street, what if one accidentally gets lost? Can you find them?"

Chen Wang clicked on Chen Linlin's forehead

"Oh, you silly boy, you didn't go alone, how could you get lost, just follow your parents properly!"

Chen Linlin looked at the crowds around, still a little worried)

The Chen family was walking and saw the passers-by in front of them start to run backwards, Chen Dong hurriedly grabbed one of them and asked

"Brother, what's going on in front?"

Passers-by are anxious

"Oh, it's not that Jin Bing is here again, why are you still standing there? Run!"

As a large crowd poured in, the three members of the Chen family were separated

Passers-by ran and shouted loudly, "The golden soldiers are coming! The golden soldiers are coming!

Pushed and shoved by the crowd, Chen Linlin stretched out her hand and kept yelling "Father, mother!"

Chen Wang also reached out and tried to grab Chen Linlin, shouting

"Linlin! Linlin!"

Seeing myself and my parents being separated, I was squeezed into a narrow alley

A few scattered golden soldiers rode fast horses through the crowd, burning, killing and looting everywhere, all the stalls on the street were overturned, and all kinds of broken sounds and shouts were mixed together

After the crowd had passed, Chen Linlin came out from the alley

The streets are empty, the ground is full of dirty corpses and all kinds of broken things

Chen Linlin stepped over one corpse after another, crying for her parents

After searching all the way until evening, Chen Linlin was sitting on a step by the side of the road, only then did she realize that gradually pedestrians appeared to clean up the road.

A woman in a blue silk dress walked upstairs beside Chen Linlin, and Chen Linlin's hungry stomach let out a series of "gurgling" noises.

The woman in Tsing Yi looked down at Chen Linlin, ignored her, and went upstairs

Chen Linlin's stomach was still growling, and she watched the peddler selling meat buns pushing a broken car home.

The sky began to drizzle and wet Chen Linlin's clothes. Chen Linlin shrank into a ball in the cold

At this time, a gentle voice came from nowhere, saying,

"If you don't want to starve to death and freeze to death, come with me"

Chen Linlin looked up, it was the woman in Tsing Yi

The woman walked up the stairs alone, Chen Linlin stood up and followed

Chen Linlin looked around while going up the stairs, and saw an extremely simple room, made of broken wood everywhere, without a single piece of decent furniture

This was very rare for civilian families at that time, and it didn't look like the original furniture should be.

The woman in Tsing Yi brought a plate with only one steamed bun on it, and put it on the table, motioning for Chen Linlin to sit down and eat

"What's your name"

Chen Linlin looked up at the woman, and replied

"My name is Chen Linlin"

Then she saw the red spots on the hands of the woman in Tsing Yi, and asked

"What's wrong with you?"

The woman quickly put her hands behind her back and replied lightly.

"It's a disease only grown-ups get"

Chen Linlin didn't quite understand, she didn't think too much, she grabbed the buns and gnawed

The woman in Tsing Yi sat down on the bench directly opposite her

After Chen Linlin quickly finished eating the buns, she looked at the woman in Tsing Yi and asked

"Auntie, why do you live here?"

The woman in Tsing Yi laughed at herself

"Because Auntie is stupid, she trusts others too much"

"Then, what do you do, auntie?"

The woman in Tsing Yi answered slowly

"Auntie is a prostitute, do you know what a prostitute is? She sells herself in a brothel"

"I know about sex, but I don't know what selling one's body is. How do you sell one's body?"

The woman in Tsing Yi laughed

"There are many ways to sell the body. Auntie sells the most stupid one. This is how the disease came about (roll up the sleeves and show the erythema on the arm) and it can't be cured anymore."

Chen Linlin paused, not knowing how to continue, so she changed the subject

"Auntie, I got separated from my parents, can you help me find my parents?"

Tsing Yi woman sighs

"It's probably impossible to find it. I was forced to stay here in the same way back then. The difference is that I didn't have parents from the beginning."

Chen Linlin continued to ask

"Then if I can't find my parents, how can I survive?"

The woman in Tsing Yi was stunned, she didn't expect the little girl in front of her to ask such a question

"Although you are young, you think a lot."

Chen Linlin lowered her eyes

"Because that's what I have to think about from now on"

The woman in Tsing Yi has far-sighted eyes and looks forward

"I have a good place for you to go, because I can't go now"

"Is it a brothel?"

The woman in Tsing Yi smiled lightly

"The brothel? Is that a good place?"

Luping and Chen Linlin came to a restaurant called "Xiziyuan", and saw the servants of the restaurant welcoming guests outside the door

The boy welcomes the guests with a smile on his face

"Hey, Mr. Xu is welcome, please... eh? It's the first time for you to come here, please, please!"

Chen Linlin looked at the woman in Tsing Yi

"Auntie, is this the good place you said?"

"Exactly, this place recruits workers all the year round, looking for hard-working young men, but outsiders don't know that it also recruits kabuki apprentices here, and the apprentices here are cultivated by themselves. I know the shopkeeper here."

So the two went to the gate of Xiziyuan

The boy suddenly saw the woman in Tsing Yi approaching, and immediately put on a look of contempt and ridicule.

"Oh, isn't this Miss Luping? How long has it been since I saw you? I heard that you can't even afford the cheapest tofu on the street recently?"

The woman in Tsing Yi, Lu Ping, smiled and said

"It's not that I can't afford it, it's that the tofu nao maker has changed, and my favorite sweet tofu nao has been made salty."

The boy replied calmly

"Your words are so boring, there are sweet and sweet ways to eat, salty and salty ways to eat"

"That's natural, but unfortunately I can't change my taste, just like I will come to your shopkeeper for everything, it has become a habit"

boy sneered

"I'm afraid you won't be able to find anyone else except our shopkeeper."

"So if your shopkeeper doesn't want to see me enter the door of the restaurant, you have to ask him to come out."

The boy glanced at Luping

"Okay, I'll go and invite you now"

The boy walked in, and after a while a middle-aged man walked out of the restaurant, walking towards Luping in a panic

The man looked around nervously and asked quickly

"What are you doing again?"

Green Ping calmly replied

"Nothing else, just want you to take this child in"

The man looked at Chen Linlin, "Where did this child come from?"

"picked up"

The man looks suspiciously at Luping

"Brother, I'm your sister, you don't have to doubt me so much"

"Because you are my sister, I, Jiang Deshan, am a passable restaurant owner. Look at how you have ruined yourself! I can't tell you any more."

Jiang Deshan turned to leave

"Brother! Can't you even agree to such a small request of mine?"

Jiang Deshan grabbed Chen Linlin and pointed at Luping

"I've taken this child in. You can go wherever you want, and don't appear in front of me again. This is the greatest contribution you can do to your brother, thank you."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore"

Luping said to Chen Linlin

"You remember that no matter what happens in the future, don't give up hope and continue to live well"

After all, Lu Ping turned and left

Chen Linlin was dragged away by Jiang Deshan and kept looking back at Luping

The author has something to say:

The encounters of the two sisters are more tragic than the other, but just get through the first few chapters! (serious face) By the way, a comic character will appear soon, although it is not a positive character...but it is really more fun
