On Jiguan Ridge, two tombs are covered with white snow.
Three feet of yellow soil were swept out in front of the grave, and a few knives of tissue paper illuminated the withered yellow weeds in front of the grave.
The ashes turned into flying butterflies, which circled around the incense candles and fruit offerings in front of the grave for a while, then flew away in the wind and drifted into the cold and silent wild woods.
Yang Hao knelt in front of Yang's grave and patiently threw the gold and silver coins into the fire one by one. Mu Yu lowered his head and considered for a while, then stepped forward and whispered: "Sir, do you want to find someone to pick up the gold and bones?"
, move the old lady and aunt away from this barren mountain."
"Where to move to?" Yang Hao asked casually, and Mu Yu was stunned.
Yang Hao said: "I don't want them to move here and there with me. Let's wait until I settle down. In fact... if you really want to say it, this is my hometown and theirs. No matter where I go
, Fallen leaves always have to return here when they return to their roots, and the tomb should be built here. However, I never want to come back to this place. It has left too many painful memories for them. I want to take them with me one day.
Go to a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters and stay there forever, but if I can’t do it now, I don’t know where I can end up.”
Mu Yike blurted out: "Sir, how about we move the old lady and aunt to Luzhou?"
Yang Hao looked at the gold and silver tassels that gradually turned into nothing in the fire, and said calmly: "That will have to wait until I can go back."
The gold and silver needles were thrown into the fire, the flames jumped, and there seemed to be a cluster of flames dancing gently in his eyes...
When the ashes were cold, Yang Hao casually picked up a handful of snow and held it in his hand. The snow turned into a ball, like a plum rice dumpling. He gently placed the snow ball in front of Dong'er's grave and expressed his respect to Dong'er.
After taking another deep look at the two tombs, he turned around and walked down the mountain, with Mu Yike and Mu Yu following behind.
The mountain road was rugged and full of snow. It was difficult to go up the mountain and even more difficult to go down. Yang Hao sang a song loudly before he had taken a few steps. The song had a simple tone and a simple rhythm, but when he heard it, he felt like he couldn't.
It is desolate and sad: "The spring breeze stirs the heart of spring, and the eyes are wandering to the mountains and forests. The mountains and forests are full of wonders, and the sunbirds are singing their clear voices... The ice in the abyss is three feet thick, and the plain snow covers thousands of miles. My heart is like a pine and cypress, how can you be so similar...
"
Yang Hao was not familiar with this song, and the song went out of tune after singing only a few lines, but what he sang was sincere and sincere. Those lines were sung repeatedly, wrapped in endless desolation. Mu Yi could gently follow along.
Behind him, listening to the song he sang, he quietly said to Mu Yu: "What is the master singing? Is it a sacrificial song?"
Mu Yu pretended to understand, and said: "Then why should such a desolate song be not a sacrificial song?"
"This is not a memorial song." Yang Hao suddenly stopped and turned around with a smile: "This song is called "Song of the Four Seasons at Midnight". It is a very nice song. It is Dong'er's favorite song. In the past, she would only sing when she was happiest.
When I was young, I would secretly sing this song alone. I always hope that one day, she can happily sing it to me, but now, I just sing it to her."
Yang Hao turned around and walked forward, and started singing "Song of the Four Seasons at Midnight" from the beginning, whose lyrics he remembered fragmentedly and the singing voice was completely out of tune: "The spring breeze moves the spring heart, and the eyes are looking at the mountains and forests. The mountains and forests are full of wonders, and the sunbirds spit out clear sounds... Yuan
The ice is three feet thick, and the plain snow covers thousands of miles. My heart is like a pine and a cypress, how can your love be the same..."
Mu Yike slowly walked behind, looking at Yang Hao's lonely back and listening to the lonely song he hummed. For some reason, his eyes slowly filled with tears, and he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. With a girl's sensitivity, she seemed to be able to read Yang Hao's miserable mood, but she couldn't express it, and the meaning was unclear, so the unspeakable feeling turned into only two lines of tears...
Mu Yu was walking when he saw it inadvertently and couldn't help being startled. Seeing that Yang Hao wasn't paying attention, he sneered softly: "Women just like to cry. Even adults don't cry. Why are you crying?" ?”
Mu Yike pulled up his sleeves to wipe his tears, glanced at him and said, "I'm happy, do you care?"
"Official, I understand. Young Master Ding and Miss Ding are now living in Wangxiazhuang. Wangxiazhuang is a villa of the Ding family. The environment is quiet and elegant, and it is very close to Bazhou City. This is because It is convenient to hire famous doctors. Alas, this manor is now the only farmland property under the Ding family."
"Thank you for your hard work, mother-in-law. Besides Master Ding and Miss Ding, who else is there in Wangxia Village?"
"The village is not big. Apart from the tenants in the village, it is just a manor of the Ding family. The manor is not big, it is just a courtyard with three entrances. There are four long-term workers, a kitchen lady, a pair of old husband and wife who look after the door, plus a small There are two maids, Qing and Xiaoyuan, and the only other ones are the eldest young master and the eldest lady..."
"Xiao Yuan? Didn't she originally serve the eldest young lady? How come she was assigned to serve the eldest young master?"
"Well...I don't know. I sent a few rogues to help me find out. How do those little hozens know the details of the wealthy compound?"
"Well...thank you, mother-in-law, I'm going out tonight."
In the dead of night, the king comes to the village.
In order to have sufficient capital to quickly integrate into the local business circle after moving to the capital, Ding Chengye and Yan Jiu tried their best to search for it. They wished they could scrape off three floors of land before leaving, causing everyone to betray their relatives and alienate everyone. Looking sideways. The good reputation that the two generations of the Ding family, father and son, had built up over decades, as well as the harmonious relationship with the tenants and long-term workers, were all destroyed by this pair of embarrassment overnight, but they did not care about this kind of self-destruction. Because of their behavior, their hearts have flown to Kaifeng Mansion, which is a hundred times more luxurious than Bazhou. They think that with the strong support of the Tang family behind them, they will soon be able to open up the situation and become the gentry and celebrities there as soon as they arrive in Kaifeng Mansion. .
When Ding Chengye took out the ancestral shrine from the ancestral temple and even sold the hugely expensive ancestral temple, Ding Yuluo rushed to stop him but failed. Ding Yuluo made it clear on the spot that he would never go to Beijing with him, a sinner of the Ding family. , she wanted to stay in Bazhou to serve her brother. Ding Chengye was happy that his brother and sister were no longer an eyesore in front of him, so he agreed.
In any case, Ding Chengzong is the eldest son of the Ding family. Although Ding Yuluo is a daughter-in-law, she has not left the court yet. She can't be too ugly in terms of face. Ding Chengye doesn't care about blood and family ties, and he can't go too far, so here Xiaozhuangyuan did not sell it out, but left it to Miss Ding.
The moon quietly crept up into the sky. Ding Yuluo came out of her brother's room, walked quietly under the frost-like moonlight, walked out of the corridor, and slowly entered a wooden pavilion on the top of the hollow pavilion. Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, he sighed quietly.
Although she kept delaying medical treatment and tried her best, her eldest brother's condition remained the same and never improved, and she was a little desperate now. The bright moon in the sky was clear and cold, which made her feel calm, but she only had a few bursts of it.
chilling.
The Ding family has been ruined by the incompetent brother. Even though the towering tree of the Ding family still looks so strong and powerful, with lush branches and leaves, it has been uprooted, and this illusion is still there.
How long can it last? Ding Yuluoyuan still hopes that his elder brother's condition will improve. As long as he wakes up, he can legitimately take back the family's ruling power as the eldest son of the Ding family and curb Ding Chengye's stupidity and madness.
behavior, but...the miracle did not happen after all...
Even if she, Ding Yuluo, has a lofty heart, what will happen if she is more talented and knowledgeable than any other man? She is a girl, so it is destined that in this family, it will never be her turn to take charge, even if the person in charge is watching helplessly.
Dragging the Ding family into the abyss, she could only watch helplessly...
Thinking of her heartache, Ding Yuluo was filled with anger and nowhere to vent her anger. She suddenly punched the pavilion pillar with a "bang" sound, and the snow on the pavilion fell rustlingly. A burst of pain came from her fist. The pent-up anguish in her heart seemed to be found.
Knowing how to relieve herself, she suddenly hit Tingzhu with several more heavy punches. The skin on her fists had been scratched, and traces of blood flowed out, sending a trace of pain into her heart.
Feeling masochistic pleasure, she punched her again and suddenly collapsed, hugging a pavilion pillar and sobbing.
"Miss..." Xiao Yuan saw it from a distance and was about to rush over, but was held back by Xiao Qing.
"Sister Xiaoqing?"
Xiao Qing shook her head gently. She had served Ding Yuluo since she was a child, and she was a sister to Ding Yuluo. She understood Ding Yuluo's mood at the moment far better than Xiao Yuan did. She looked sadly and cried softly while holding the pillars of the pavilion.
Ding Yuluo glanced at her, sighed quietly, and whispered: "Xiaoyuan, don't go there, just let the eldest lady cry for a while, she is... suffering in her heart."
"Oh!" Xiao Yuan looked at Ding Yuluo's vague figure and shook his head sadly. As soon as Xiao Qing turned around, he saw two tall figures standing quietly in front of him. The two girls were very surprised.
Before Xiao Yuan exclaimed, a big hand covered her small mouth. Xiao Qing had learned some kung fu from Ding Yuluo and was a little bolder than Xiao Yuan. When she realized something was wrong, she immediately retreated.
She stamped her feet and jumped upside down. She was as agile as a fox and her legs were extremely strong. She jumped over two meters in one jump, which was extremely rare for a delicate girl like her.
However, with this leap, she jumped directly into the arms of a big man. The big man had no sympathy for her. He grabbed her slender waist, stretched out his big hand, and slashed the side of her neck with a knife.
Qing immediately became like a puppet with its strings cut off, and his whole body went limp.
Poor Xiao Yuan's face was almost covered by a big hand, leaving only two big frightened eyes, looking desperately at the tall and powerful black figure in front of him, "rape first and then kill", "destroy the corpse"
"Erotic", "Kidnapped as a wife of the stronghold"... Many legendary stories about criminal thieves and green forest heroes that came to her from childhood came to her mind one after another, almost frightening her to the point of fainting, but she just couldn't pass out...
Mu Yu slowly walked out from the darkness, shook his finger, and the big men said nothing, picked up the two girls' bodies and disappeared into the shadow of the house. The long-term worker in the front yard, the maid in the backyard,
They have all been controlled by them. These people may have the eyes and ears of Ding Chengye and Yan Jiu, but they may also be loyal servants, so they still have a sense of proportion in their actions.
Ding Yuluo has always given people an extremely strong look, but she also has moments of weakness, especially when her family has undergone tremendous changes and she is isolated and helpless. She has watched her father and brother's hard work be destroyed in one day but is powerless. She has watched her brother become more and more haggard in one day.
One day she was unable to help, and the mental torture was driving her crazy.
She was holding on to the pavilion pillar and sobbing softly when she suddenly heard the sound of Xisuo's footsteps. She quickly stopped crying, hurriedly wiped away her tears, pretended to brush her hair, lowered her head to hide the wet tears on her cheeks and said: "
Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
No answer was heard in her ears. Ding Yuluo lowered her eyes and suddenly noticed the diagonally elongated silhouette of a person on the ground. She couldn't help but be shocked. That figure and the young master's folded scarf above her head were definitely not Xiao Qing and Xiao Yuan beside her.
, it couldn't possibly be the long-term workers in the front yard dressed up. Without even thinking about it, she straightened her back, raised her hand and punched the man.
"Hey!" Yang Hao exclaimed softly. He didn't expect Miss Ding to react so quickly. When he saw a punch coming, he leaned back quickly, made sword moves with two fingers, and used the Heavenly Escape Sword move.
The move in the law was aimed at Ding Yuluo's wrist Waiguan point. Ding Yuluo was hit by his finger, his arms were numb, and his heart was even more frightened. He closed his fists, raised his legs and kicked Yang Hao.
Lower Yin.
She is a woman, and women's strength is always weaker than that of men. Therefore, the punching and kicking skills that women learn mostly target the vital parts of people's joints, which can achieve miraculous effects. Ding Yuluo's strength on her legs is stronger than that on her hands.
A little more powerful, this leg flew up to the ground, and its power was quite extraordinary.
Yang Hao didn't dare to neglect, he raised his legs and made a "bang" fight. The two legs hit each other hard. Ding Yuluo bent down and bounced towards Yang Hao's chest and abdomen like a ball. He punched several times with both hands.
.These few reactions of the rabbit rising and the falcon falling were just a split second. Yang Hao was dazzled by the sight. If he were still the same Yang Hao, he would have been lying on the ground wailing at this moment.
Now, not only did he learn advanced martial arts skills from Lu Dongbin, but his internal martial arts skills were also getting closer with each passing day. He was no longer Wu Xia Ameng. He stepped on the seven stars under his feet and dodged several punches in a row.
Steady, with a scolding in his mouth, he raised his leg and kicked her again. Yang Hao, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed her ankle.
Ding Yuluo didn't expect that the thief was so skilled. He tried to jump up and kicked him again, but she escaped from his grasp. Yang Hao held her delicate calf and placed his thumb on her yang point.
Pressing hard, Ding Yuluo let out a cry, and half of his body immediately became sore and numb, and he could no longer exert any strength.
"Who are you? You break into a private house at night. Aren't you afraid that the officials will convict you?" Ding Yuluo was secretly afraid, but he refused to give in. Now that he had fallen into the hands of others, he had no choice but to use the official law to intimidate him.
Yang Hao smiled helplessly: "I don't know whether you will call me Ding Hao or Yang Hao, and I don't know if I should call you Miss Ding or Yuluo when I meet you."
"What?" Ding Yuluo was shocked. She looked closely at the face under the faint moonlight, and she cried out: "Second brother!"
The sound of "Second Brother" melted Yang Hao's heart...
