The woods are still so dark. Perhaps the leaves above cannot bear the burden of snow and water. Occasionally, you can hear the sound of dead branches breaking. Before the light could come, the snow water next to them filled the gap again. All this became calm again, as if that scene had never happened.

A man and a woman were walking in the primitive dense forest where the snow was not thick. She only occasionally stopped to make a fire, roasted clothes that had been soaked, and warmed up a bun that had been hard. Only when they put the warm and soft food into their mouths did they feel that it was real. The scene a few days ago was not willing to talk about, and they were even more unwilling to recall it, and they didn't know how to explain it to the person they were looking forward to when they went back.

Hongxiu and Changjiang finally caught up with Song Ningxue who had left a few days ago. When she saw Song Ningxue, she had already burst into tears and pounced on Song Ningxue's arms.

Song Ningxue is such a smart person. She didn't see Wu Yonglin's figure, and she saw the sad and sad look of the two of them. She had already guessed everything, but she didn't dare or was willing to accept all of this. That person can be said to be her whole body now, even more important than her life.

In the end, Song Ningxue raised the courage to speak: "Has Manager Wu been delayed by something?"

"Wuwuwu..." Hongxiu cried more and more fiercely. In her heart, she actually had no hatred for Wu Yonglin, but she was a little disgusted with his personality of being flirting with her. After all, her lady has not yet become his wife, how could it be possible for outsiders to take the lead? She admired and relied on Wu Yonglin in her heart. The key is that he could make her feast for her. After eating this meal, she wanted to have a delicious meal. Although she had been fighting with Wu Yonglin in Fanbang these days, she thought he was his own family. Who cares about an outsider? She was really sad about Wu Yonglin's death and did not add any falsehood. If he were not there, how would the people in Hongshanzhai survive in the next days?

"Manager Wu is dead." In the end, Changjiang couldn't help but say it.

"Impossible, Impossible." Song Ningxue's eyes were dazzling when she was standing. Her body, which was originally standing, seemed to have suddenly been pulled away from all its strength, and she staggered and fell behind her.

"Sister Song, Sister Song" Hongxiu finally woke up Song Ningxue who had been unconscious for a long time.

Hongxiu cried enthusiastically, but Song Ningxue was cold. At this time, her heart was completely empty. Except for this body, she was still her own. She felt that she had already left her body and wanted to capture the familiar shadow from the beautiful memories of the past. But everything was like a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water. When she returned to reality again, she had to muster up the courage to admit what the Yangtze River said just now, but the grief in her heart was still pouring down her beautiful cheeks with her tears. Only in this way can she feel better.

"Manager Wu may not die." Changjiang finally plucked up the courage to give everyone hope.

"..." Song Ningxue was excited again and was eager to strangle the Yangtze River, which only spoke halfway.

"I only saw Manager Wu fall into the water. Maybe his guitar will have a heavenly appearance and can escape this disaster." Changjiang finally pretended to be full of confidence and said all this. In fact, he was completely unsure. As a man, he had to give these people some hope. Perhaps, this is the so-called lie of kindness.

"Why don't we go back along the river and look for it?" Song Ningxue finally showed a glimmer of vitality.

"Sister Hongxiu and I have been searching by the river for a long time, and the foreign soldiers seem to have no gains. It seems that Manager Wu is still safe for the time being." Changjiang told everything to Song Ningxue, which made her feel a little relieved.

"Sister Song, don't worry, at least there is no body of Manager Wu, which proves that he is still alive." Hongxiu also began to have fantasies.

"And there has been a huge news in recent days that Chopard has become king. Judging from all the signs, he has sent troops to the Wei Dynasty. If we don't go back early to convey these news, I'm afraid that the brothers and sisters in Xicheng and Hongshanzhai will probably have a lot of luck."

"Ah, then why don't you go back first, I want to go back and wait for Manager Wu." Song Ningxue still didn't give up.

"What if Manager Wu arrives one step ahead of us? If he is really fine, he will definitely go back to Xicheng, which is his home after all." Hongxiu hurriedly stepped forward to stop Song Ningxue's irrationality.

Song Ningxue looked back unwillingly. She was unable to refute Hongxiu's words, so she could only take one step at a time, and asked the government troops in Xicheng to prepare early. This is what a Wei Dynasty should do. When foreign tribes invade, personal grudges and love and hatred must be abandoned. She has also seen the cruelty of foreign people on the border for more than a year. She can only describe the ugly behavior of those people as animals.

When she arrived in Xicheng, she passed these important information to Zhou Xun to know, and then prepared these people for a long time. Later, there was a long-lasting war. Faced with the journey of innocent elderly, weak, women and children, she felt that she had at least done something to comfort her for this person. She gave them a way out. There was always hope when people were alive.

Song Ningxue returned to the tofu shop and returned to her old business. She would deliver the fresh tofu prepared to "Xifeng Tower" on time every day and find a seat by the window. Although she had told Erbao that Manager Wu had already told him that they asked Jinling to avoid it, these people were even more stubborn than her. How could they close the door and close their business if they didn't see the shopkeeper coming back for a day? And when his people left, how could they give the most delicious meals to the generals who fought on the city wall in the future? They couldn't fill their stomachs, so how could they still have the strength to defend the enemy? Erbao said many great principles that he didn't understand, which made her unable to help but think of the annoying and joyful Wu Yonglin. Finally, Erbao said that Manager Wu once taught them a sentence: People must know why they are alive, and Song Ningxue began to be confused again.

In front of foreign enemies, he, a civilian, only knows that as long as he does his own duties and does not fight, he will provide logistical support for the soldiers. As for when to leave, at least he has to wait for the moment when the city is broken?

It turned out that Manager Wu not only gave them the happiness of living, but also gave them the courage, and even gave them the integrity of being a Wei Dynasty. They were so calm in the face of death.

For Wu Yonglin, she just had a ardent hope, hoping that he would come back soon to reunite with him and these people. As long as he came back, why not be afraid of the coming tide? With him, she always has the ability to turn the tide. No matter the changes in the wind and clouds, she knew that she had the same idea as these people and had to wait.

**********

After several days of running around overnight, Hongxiu and Changjiang finally returned to Hongshanzhai. The mood after Yue Ling'er, who was looking through Qiushui, could no longer be described as excited as seeing Hongxiu. Although she did not see the familiar back behind them, she still asked shyly: "Is he okay?"

"Oh, oh, you said, Shopkeeper Wu, the restaurant in Xicheng is too busy. He asked me to tell you that I will come to see you after this period of time." Hongxiu and Changjiang Road had discussed it and were not going to tell Yue Ling'er the truth about the matter. After all, the people in the village were going to move. This was what Manager Wu had repeatedly told me, and he was not careless, so in the end, Hongxiu told Yue Ling'er that Hongxiu still lies.

"Oh, why don't we go to Xicheng to see him?" Yue Ling'er was already impatient.

"This is a letter that Manager Wu asked me to give you. All he wanted to say is written in it." Hongxiu handed over an envelope, which made Yue Ling'er a little embarrassed.

"Hongxiu, you don't know me..." Yue Ling said hesitantly, and it was hard to say it out in front of everyone.

"Don't worry, Miss, you can tell if you take it apart." Hongxiu blinked at her.

The moment when Yue Ling'er opened the letter, she was filled with tears. Wu Yonglin did not break his promise to her. The "生生生" followed by a new chapter. A female hero fights against eight vicious green forest men alone. She is still so elegant, so chic, and so beautiful as a flower. The moment Yue Ling'er finished reading it, she could no longer bear to let go.

The look behind her was a little confused. Why did everyone, including her, rush forward and run towards a "watermelon". Is there any special meaning?

Hongxiu whispered to the stunned Yue Ling'er: "This watermelon represents the West."

Yue Ling'er was still a little confused and said to Hongxiu: "Is there anything else that Manager Wu wants you to pass on the message?"

"Miss, the people from Fanbian are about to come here. Manager Wu means to let us go west. I heard that there is a place called Shu, which is suitable for us to come again."

"Why is he so careless about such a big thing? Why doesn't he come to me in person and explain it clearly? No, I must go to him and ask him clearly."

"Miss, you don't know that the people of the Fanbian have captured many surrounding prefectures and counties. As we come back along the way, we see the common people heading towards Xicheng everywhere. If we have to defend, how long do you think we can defend with our abilities?"

"I haven't seen each other in the past few months, so I've spoken one by one. It seems that I've been eating with that manager Wu for nothing, and I've gained some knowledge." Yue Ling'er gently scratched Hongxiu's nose.

"Miss, Manager Wu also said, let us not care about every tree and grass here, and walk lightly. As long as people live, there will be hope."

Since the war at the border began, fewer and fewer military merchants have been coming here. In just a few days, the originally lively commercial street has become depressed and bleak, no longer as prosperous as before. Walking on the street, you can't see an outside businessman at all.

Yue Ling'er looked at everything in front of her, and seemed a little reluctant to let go. Everything she had worked hard in the past few months was burning and tearing her as she said that she could say that she could tear it down. The people carrying small bags were already crying as they saw everything she had in front of her turned into ashes.

The shopkeeper Wu San of the "Xichun Tower" was very happy. Yue Ling'er asked him to burn the restaurant. He did not drag him down at all. In front of hundreds of people, he burned his restaurant first. He did not look sad and complained. When the restaurant was still burning, he had already set off on his way with a few torn clothes. Before leaving, he handed over a bag of pearl silver to Yue Ling'er, saying that it was the shopkeeper's instructions. Everything here belonged to Hongshan Village, except himself. If their new village was rebuilt, he would definitely open the restaurant again. As for this bag of pearl silver, he would have invested in the early stage. I hope she could leave him a good place.

There were so many tears today. When Yue Ling'er saw Wu San leaving, she also wanted to go back with him, but looking at the eyes behind her, she still held back. Perhaps, only by setting these people down again can she get together with him again.

Yue Ling'er came to the school and saw Mr. Qian who was looking at the empty table there, and said softly: "Mr. Qian, let's go with us!"

"I can't afford to toss my old bones anymore, and I'm leaving, who will visit my family's graves?" Mr. Qian looked at several new graves on the hillside not far away, feeling sad.

A few days ago, several relatives in the family brought bad news that made him feel heartbroken. All his sons and wives were killed by the Westerners, and the original old house had already turned into ashes. The leader of the Yue Village brought people back to his hometown late at night and brought back the bodies of his only relatives. He fainted from crying at that time. In recent days, he was even more drowsy and looked like he didn't want to live alone.

"You go, I will always leave someone here to help you guard it. I will wait for the day when you come back." After Mr. Qian said that, he picked up a small shovel and said that the grave bags were not built, so he wanted to repair them.

Looking at Mr. Qian walking away and a little hunched back, Yue Ling'er felt an indescribable sadness. She could not force the old man to leave with her, and she had no reason. Just like she was in love with Wu Yonglin, Mr. Qian was the only concern for living. Why did she have to force others to do anything? She had to give him a reason and hope to live.

The group took advantage of the night and walked on the mountain path. They were not as panicked as other fleeing people. Everyone walked in an orderly manner. Occasionally, the elderly, weak, women and children were helping each other. In their opinion, this was just finding a better place to survive again. As the leader of the Yuezhai Village said, people can only have hope when they are alive.

Xiaohua's stubbornness, which had been crying and stubborn, finally calmed down. With the arrival of night, she finally fell asleep on Hongxiu's back. She said she didn't want to leave, she wanted to wait for Aunt Cuihua to come back. What if Aunt Cuihua couldn't find them when she came back?

Yue Ling'er saw that the sleeping little flower was still sobbing gently, and put on a coat for her. Looking at the scenes in front of her, she didn't understand why she did what Wu Yonglin said without hesitation. Why did he make herself so cruel to these people? She finally had no worries about food and clothing, but she embarked on a road with nothing in front of her. And this time he asked her to face all this by herself, and is she really capable of completing all this? As long as she thinks about these things, she wants to capture him back and go on the road with her. As long as he is here, she won't have to worry about it.

A beautiful figure with a big belly appeared in front of her. A Xiang was pregnant for several months. She had no complaints about the running around the road. She wanted to see with A Yong that the little life in her belly was born. It was unsafe in Hongshan Village. She had heard of the humiliation and cruelty of the Westerners for the women, and she was secretly grateful for this trip.

The road planned by Manager Wu, the whole village felt that it was a life path that could survive. They had no regrets. Just like the oath that the Lord of Yuezhai had made before leaving, one day, they would come back, and would come back with their descendants, pointing to the land, telling them that a hero had once appeared here, who saved everything here and allowed these people to survive happily.

Three days later, Ha Congwu came with his men and horses. Looking at the scorched red-shanzhai Village, it was completely different from the prosperous village mentioned by the Wei Shang next to him. Could it be that he was dazzled? Fortunately, there was a skinny old man here. When he sent someone to catch him back, the shovel in his hand raised directly knocked a soldier next to him. Just when he was killing again, a soldier who rushed up from behind pushed him down. Because of his excessive force, he directly hit him on the tombstone next to him. The old man looked at the tombstone and actually smiled happily. Before he died, he smiled brightly, as if he saw azaleas all over the mountain, holding a book "The Analects of Confucius" in his hand, and the lady next to him was basking in the sun with a babbling child. There, they finally reunited.
