[Jian San + Gu Long] Put that flower and I will come!

According to the undisturbed trajectory, even if the children of the Yu family want to set foot in the rivers and lakes and join a certain sect, it is not the Mingjiao that Yu's father has always had a good relationship with, it should be Qixiu and Cangjian who are close to the Yu family's territory in Yuhang , definitely shouldn't have anything to do with Ten Thousand Flowers Valley.

But there are no ifs in this world.

When Xu Ling, the youngest daughter of the Yu family, was seven years old, she was taken away by kidnappers on the way to go out for the Lantern Festival with her second brother.

At that time, the pillar of the Yu family, the father of the Yu family, had died in the desert for less than half a year, and the elder brother of the Yu family had just taken over the family's business not long ago, and he was busy with everything. Personnel movement and bill checking... All kinds of factors add up, and the result is that when the people sent by the Yu family track down the whereabouts of the traffickers, they will already be in Chang'an.

The people sent by the elder brother of the Yu family wandered around outside Chang'an City for several times but failed to find anyone. Finally, in the red camp outside Tiandu Town, they heard the news from a Wanhua disciple who was about to leave: the trafficker died.

How did you die?

plague.

The face of the visitor turned pale immediately.

At that time, the plague was rampant in Tiandu Town, Chang'an.

Not only the traffickers and their accomplices died, but also the five or six children he abducted.

And in order to prevent the source of the disease, those sect disciples burned the corpses not long after they found them.

Xu Shi saw that his expression was not good, so the fellow disciple of Wanhua hurriedly said that another child survived, but because the child was too weak, he had already been sent to Wanhua Valley for recuperation.

Probably because of the blessing of the Yu family's father in the spirit of heaven, the only child who survived was the youngest daughter of the Yu family.

The three older brothers of the Yu family and the married older sister rushed to Wanhua after hearing the news, holding the younger sister who survived the catastrophe, they could only rejoice.

The elder sister of the Yu family burst into tears holding her lost and recovered younger sister, and she didn't dare to ask her what happened to her when she was kidnapped.

No one asked her about her experience after being abducted, so no one knew that the youngest daughter of the Yu family was dug out of the dead by a Qixiu disciple.

The trafficker locked up six children abducted from Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas in a farm house. When the plague first appeared, he didn't notice it. He didn't pay much attention when he found that a few children were sick—after all, they were young children with weak bodies. When Jiangsu and Zhejiang were brought to Chang'an, the climate and soil were not acclimatized from time to time.

The trafficker didn't realize something was wrong until the weakest of the children died, but it was too late—he himself had the disease.

The epidemic was so fierce that the traffickers buried the dead child in the yard in the morning, and in the afternoon he threw up and fell down in the house and couldn't get up.

At this time, three of the remaining children in the house died, but this time the traffickers had no strength to drag them out and bury them.

He didn't even have the strength to get out of bed.

For the convenience of monitoring, several children were locked in the trafficker's room, and even the traffickers slept and ate in that room.

Wan Feng watched helplessly as those "companions" with good looks and temperament disappeared one by one.

They were crying and making noise all the time on the road, if it wasn't for the fierce adult berating them and whipping them with bamboo sticks, they wouldn't be quiet at all.

But now, even if the adult who seemed invincible to them was so sick that he didn't even have the strength to get up, obviously there was nothing to be afraid of, but they were already dying.

She was one of the first few children to be infected with the plague, but she survived to the end.

From the onset of the disease to the death of everyone, only two days passed.

And it wasn't until the fifth day that the corpse was stinking due to the heavy rain of the previous two days, and Qixiu's disciples who were patrolling nearby realized that something was wrong and broke into the courtyard where "the master was not at home" before she was discovered.

Naturally, the room where traffickers keep children is not sunny.In order to prevent the children from crying and attracting nosy people, the traffickers nailed down all the windows, and there was no second exit except for a door.

Once the door is closed, the outside world is cut off from it.

On the second night, after the traffickers had breathed their last in bed, the candles were extinguished.

There was no light in the room.

In the darkness so quiet that she could hear her heartbeat, she counted the disappearing breaths one by one.

one, two, three...

Until the end, all she could hear was her own breathing and the beating of her heart.

The plague left her without even the strength to cry out for help.

Surrounded by cold clothes and unheated clothes, they should belong to a certain little boy—after all, compared to female dolls, healthy male dolls are more valuable, so among these friends who are suffering from the same disease, the past Half of them are boys.

It was raining, and the trafficker's house was leaking. She heard the sound of rain, and water droplets fell on the corner of her mouth.

Mixed with the taste that I don't know how to describe.

Three full days.

Then, on the morning of the fourth day, she was carried out from the pile of corpses by Qixiu's disciple who broke open the gate.

The Shuanghua sword energy that broke through the gate, and the slim figure standing against the light coming from outside, will be unforgettable scenes in her life.

"...Ah Wan? Ah Wan?"

Wan Feng regained consciousness in a daze.

"Are you still scared?" Yuan Suiyun asked.

Wan Feng shook her head: "It's okay, it's just... I just thought of something. Ah Yun is holding my hand, so I'm fine."

She raised her hand and shook the hands of the two, and smiled.

Even if you are alone, as long as you don't touch the cold body, there will be no big problem.

Before, because she let go of her hand, she grabbed Ayun's sleeves, and the sleeves without any heat reminded her of the clothes that were put on dead children, so she almost collapsed.

But now, the clasped hands are warm and dry, reminding her every moment that this is a living person.

She's not alone in the dark.

This is enough.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a ray of light suddenly appeared.

Even though the light cannot be weaker, for people who have been in the dark for a long time, it is so dazzling that people can't help squinting their eyes.

Wan Feng was like this, she squinted her eyes to look at the light on the other side, and she was overjoyed: "Ah Yun, the exit is coming soon!"

Yuan Suiyun's heart sank slowly as he felt the pulling force of the hand that he had been leading all the time.

Are you so impatient to get out of this darkness?

Only in the dark would Ah Wan obediently stay by his side, shivering in his arms.

But in the world under the sun, she is like a dandelion blown away by the wind, unable to be caught.

The warmth in the hands disappeared.

She withdrew her hand.

Standing in the darkness, as if he was born to be so suitable for the darkness, the young man evoked a cold arc.

I really shouldn't be soft-hearted.

If her heart softens, she won't come back...huh?

"Ayun, why are you still standing there?" Wan Feng made sure that there was no one guarding the exit, and ran back again——she found that her little friend who had walked along the way seemed to have not followed, and when she ran back, she found Ayun I froze in place, not knowing what to think.

"Let's go quickly! If Shi Guanyin notices something and send someone to guard the exit, it will be troublesome!" Seeing that Yuan Suiyun didn't recover, Wan Feng consciously dragged him away.

Yuan Suiyun seemed to have regained his composure from the force of the pull, his face showed a rare confusion, and he "looked" at the hands they held, and then asked hesitantly, "...Ah Wan?"

"Well, it's me? What's the matter?" Wan Feng asked in confusion.

Slowly clenching the warmth in his hand, Yuan Suiyun was silent for a while before showing a smile: "It's okay."

The little girl didn't quite understand, she just intuited that Ayun seemed to be hiding something from her, but she didn't care, and only carefully observed the surrounding situation.

As a blind man, although Yuan Suiyun couldn't see, his hearing was very good, and he could already hear that there was no one nearby.Sensing that the person walking in front was walking cautiously, he didn't point it out, but said slowly: "Speaking of which, Ah Wan seemed to be a different person as soon as he stepped out of the secret passage... Wasn't he really lying in the secret passage before? "

"Who said that! I'm afraid of the dark, of course I'm afraid of the darkness there! Now it's broad daylight and the room is bright, so why should I be afraid!" Wan Feng retorted without thinking.

"is it?"

"Of course!" Wan Feng said earnestly, then she thought about it, and glanced at the handsome young man behind her, "However, it's also because of Ah Yun."

Yuan Suiyun tilted his head in doubt: "Me?"

"Well, there is Ah Yun here, holding my hand all the time. I don't know why, but I feel at ease." Wan Feng said, "I was never so at ease when I was accompanied by a senior brother before."
