Ye Zhen and Murong Ke came to the river, and the three-leaf light boat was ready. Fortunately, it didn't rain again today, otherwise it would be impossible to enter the mountain.
"Yaoyao, you should wait here, if the emperor is in the village, I will definitely bring him back." Murong Ke whispered.
"This is the last hope, right?" Ye Zhen looked at Murong Ke and asked.
Murong Ke said, "Not necessarily, maybe General Ye has already found it."
Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "I know, this is the last hope, I want to find him in person, take me with you."
"Okay." Murong Ke nodded lightly, motioning for Hongying to help Ye Zhen onto the boat.
It's not too far from here to the village that Lin Zhiran mentioned, but it's a little difficult to walk through the mountain stream. Although Lin Zhiran has been here a few times, he still needs to carefully recognize the way. When the boat enters the mountain stream, Everything around was dark, there were mountains and forests on the left and right, towering trees blocked the sunlight, if Lin Zhiran hadn't led the way, they would definitely not be able to get in.
"It's so secretive, no wonder we can't find our way." Murong Ke said in a low voice.
The closer she got to the fishing village, Ye Zhen felt inexplicably panicked in her heart, and she couldn't say why.
"Ma'am, there is a big lake in front of you, and beside the lake is a fishing village called Huajia Village, and the fishermen there are all surnamed Hua." Lin Zhiran said.
They walked for an unknown amount of time, and when it was almost noon, they finally came out of the mountain stream. The lake they saw in front of them surprised them a bit, what a beautiful place! This lake is like a precious mirror, surrounded by mountains and forests, not far away are layers of orderly houses, and fishing nets are still drying on the beach by the lake, this place is like a paradise.
"Who are you?" There were two or three women drying their fishing nets on the shore, and when they saw Ye Zhen and the others, their expressions became tense, and an older student mustered up the courage to stand up and ask.
"Xiu Gu, I'm Xiao Ran, have you forgotten me?" Lin Zhiran waved vigorously, and shouted at the woman with a smile.
The woman named Xiugu looked at Lin Zhiran carefully, and then remembered that this was the little girl who had been to Huajia Village two years ago, she immediately laughed, "It's Xiaoran, you... What are you doing in Huajia Village?"
"Xiu Gu, our master accidentally fell into the river, did you see a man on the bank?" Lin Zhiran turned to look at Ye Zhen and asked.
"Oh, so you know them..." Xiu Gu said, "Two people were washed here by the river the night before yesterday, one was taken away, and the other is at Ning girl's house."
Lin Zhiran looked at Ye Zhen in surprise, "Ma'am, it's really here."
Murong Ke looked a little heavy, he didn't ignore what Xiu Gu said just now that two people were rushed here, and one of them had already been taken away.
"What if... the person rescued here is Lu Lingzhi?" Ye Zhen asked him in a low voice.
"The person who was taken away should be Lu Lingzhi." Murong Ke whispered, "Let's take a look first."
Lin Zhiran said to Xiu Gu, "Xiu Gu, can you take us there?"
"You guys come up first, girl Ning's house is just ahead, not very far away," Xiu Gu said.
…
…
When Mo Rongzhan was held tightly by Lu Lingzhi and fell off the cliff together, the sword in his hand was quickly pulled out from Lu Lingzhi's body. In order to slow down the speed of falling off the cliff, he wanted to stab the sword into the rock.
"Since it's a life gamble, let's be fair." Lu Lingzhi realized his actions, he showed a crazy smile, kicked the rock with all his strength, and fell into the river with Mo Rongzhan .
Lu Lingzhi was quickly swept away by the waves. When Murong Zhan fell off the cliff, his forehead hit the rock, and his eyes turned black. A piece of wood drifted from nowhere. He hugged the broken wood, and after a while lose consciousness.
In the darkness, Mo Rongzhan looked around, he wanted to see everything in front of him clearly, but he couldn't see anything clearly.
He only heard a woman's voice calling him.
"Azhan..."
"Where are you?"
who is it? Who is calling his name
This voice was so familiar, he thought hard, and there were more voices in his mind.
"Yaoyao, I won't hurt you again."
"Sorry, Yaoyao..."
"Yaoyao..."
Yaoyao... Who is his Yaoyao? Mo Rongzhan's consciousness was fuzzy, before he remembered who was calling him, he fell into the darkness again.
Huajia Village, by the lake.
"Grandma Hua, is he waking up soon?" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman stood beside the bed, looked at the unconscious man with a pair of clear eyes, and asked Granny Hua who was cooking medicine.
Hua Pozi has gray hair, she frowned and glanced at the man, "It looks like he is dying, with such a serious injury, and after drifting in the river for so long, that's all I can do."
"I don't know who he is, but his clothes look luxurious." The little girl asked curiously.
"Whoever he is, let him be carried away when he dies." Hua Pozi frowned and said, "Don't always rescue people by the lake indiscriminately, what if it's a bad person? Your mother saved a bad person and was killed. Yes, do you want to learn from your mother?"
"Didn't my mother die of illness?" The little girl asked suspiciously.
This little girl is Zhao Ning, a fisher girl in Huajia Village. She has grown up here since she was a child and has never been to other places. This man was rescued by her.
Hua Pozi paused, "It's because someone made me sick."
"I won't be like my mother." Zhao Ning said in a low voice, "My mother was sick because of my father. According to my mother-in-law, my father is a bad person."
"Where is your father from? Don't mention this person again." Hua Pozi said with a cold face, and put a bowl of medicine on the table, "Feed him, if he doesn't wake up tonight, it's probably hopeless. "
Zhao Ning murmured softly, "If I don't have a father, why would my surname be Zhao?" Sensing Mrs. Hua's stare, she nodded immediately, "If he dies, I will definitely have him buried."
Hua Pozi lowered her eyes and looked at the man, "I'm afraid this man fell from the mountain. He lost so much blood. If he wants to survive, there will be no gods."
"Mother-in-law...he hasn't died yet." Zhao Ning said in a low voice.
"You still look like your mother in everything." Hua Pozi said angrily. Even the appearance is exactly the same. Huajia Village can produce the most beauties, but no one is as beautiful as Zhao Ning's mother and daughter, especially those eyes. As if she could speak, she was as bright and clear as spring water, and she had a crystal heart. When she saw anyone hurt, she would take it home with a soft heart. Back then, Hua Xianer shouldn't have brought that man home.
I don't know what about the man lying here now, if he really wakes up and sees Zhao Ning like this, it's hard not to be tempted.
