Chapter 79: Qingfeng Youth
After hearing what he said, Su Muwan was very curious, "Why can't you give me an official?"
"My benefactor doesn't know anything. In the past, the people from Heifeng Village often came down to rob passers-by. Our villagers couldn't stand their domineering behavior, so they went to the local parents' official to ask him to deal with these bandits, but they were beaten and said that we were framed by good people." The village chief smiled bitterly and told the reason.
Su Muwan looked angry: "There are such parents! Since being an official does not make decisions for the people, what's the use for him?"
"If my benefactor leaves my village, don't say this to outsiders. Xie Da accidentally leaked to us, saying that there are still people behind him to support them, so the benefactor must not mention the matter here again, I am afraid that the benefactor will cause trouble for his benefactor."
The village chief advised earnestly that he was afraid that Su Muwan would be angry for a moment and would provoke someone he shouldn't have been offended.
"Somebody supports me behind me?" Su Muwan said to herself.
Why did a little bandit leader dare to say such words and let his parents protect him? What is the reason?
At this time, Mo Yan suddenly shouted: "Young Master, the ancestral hall seems to be on fire!"
Su Muwan quickly turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw bursts of black smoke coming out of the ancestral hall.
Could it be that those thieves escaped?
Su Muwan quickly brought people to the ancestral hall. By the time she arrived, the ancestral hall had been burned to the point of burning.
There was a young man holding a torch at the door, with blood on his face and body, his expression seemed sad and resentful, and he looked a little crazy.
Seeing him, Xiaolei shouted: "Nanqiao! What are you doing!"
It turned out that this was the Nanqiao that had walked away from Xiao Lei at some time. After hearing Xiao Lei's voice, he seemed to suddenly wake up, and his eyes began to have focal length.
"It's Xiaolei. I just killed Xie Da and Xie San. The knife was inserted into their chests and sprayed a lot of blood. You didn't see it. They kept begging me and begging me not to kill them."
Speaking of this, Nanqiao suddenly started to laugh until he coughed because of the laughter.
"Cough, cough! How funny. It turns out that even if they killed so many innocent people, they will be afraid when it is their turn! Are you sarcastic?
"Why do you do this, Nanqiao?" Xiaolei stepped forward and shouted at him.
"Why? Xiaolei, your hands are still clean. Don't dirty your hands just by killing the thief. But I am already dirty all over my body. So what's wrong with being dirty! Don't worry, I have avenged both of us. In the future, you will forget these hatreds and start over!"
Nanqiao said word by word, then his eyes turned to Su Muwan.
"Are you the good person Xiaolei calls? Haha, there are so few good people in this world. I can't repay your kindness to me in this life. In the next life, I will definitely repay you with a chain of arms, cattle and horses!"
After saying that, he turned his head and walked step by step into the burning ancestral hall behind him, shouting, "Grandpa, Nanqiao brings the people who killed you to see you, don't dislike Nanqiao's uncleanness."
The fire was surging, and soon he was swallowed by the fire dragon and disappeared into the flames.
Xiaolei was about to rush in to save him, but he was caught in time. At this time, he stood before the raging fire and murmured: "Nanqiao, why are you so stupid!"
Seeing this, Su Muwan had guessed most of the situation in her heart, but she could only sigh secretly.
After all, the young man avenged himself before leaving, so for him, this is also a relief for a short and miserable life.
In the next life, I hope he will come cleanly and leave cleanly, and will always be a young man like the breeze.
The ancestral hall was originally made of wood, so the fire finally burned clean and turned into ruins.
Xiaolei grabbed a handful of ashes from the ruins, tore off a piece of cloth from the corner of his clothes, and carefully wrapped it up.
He decided to take it with him no matter where he went in the future, just to let Nanqiao live with him for another time.
When Su Muwan saw him like this, she said nothing and touched his head.
Xiaolei suddenly looked up at Su Muwan and asked seriously: "Young Master, can I follow you in the future? I have no relatives, and you have helped me avenge me. I will stay by your side to repay my kindness."
Seeing that Su Muwan didn't respond, he was a little anxious, "I can do all kinds of work. I have studied medicine with my father before. My voice was made by myself. I will have a lot of things. Please let me stay by your side."
"With me, you may encounter many dangers. Aren't you afraid?"
Su Muwan didn't want to take him with her. It would be better to stay with her child like this and spend her life safely.
Xiaolei shook his head, with a firm face on his face, "I'm not afraid, my life is yours now. If one day I can die for protecting you, it's my death worthwhile."
Seeing the seriousness and expectation in his eyes, Su Muwan couldn't say anything she refused, so she could only nod and agreed.
"Please give me another name!" Seeing Su Muwan agreeing to let him stay, Xiaolei asked.
He wanted to say goodbye to his past completely and start over.
Su Muwan pondered for a moment and gently uttered a few words: "Qingfeng, from now on, you will call Qingfeng."
Just think of it as a way to live as freely as the breeze for that young man.
With a new name, Qingfeng wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then he remembered what he had taken out of the mountain.
"Young Master, look! This is the letter I received from Xie Dawu."
Su Muwan took it, opened one of them, swept it across ten lines at a glance, and opened another one. After reading the few letters, she frowned tightly and remained silent.
Seeing this, Mo Yan asked anxiously: "Young Master, what does this letter say? Do you know who is behind Xie Da?"
Su Muwan casually gave him the letter and asked him to see it on his own.
When Mo Yan finished reading it, he could hardly believe his eyes.
It turned out that these letters were written by local parents to Xie Da. One of the letters stated that as long as Xie Da pays a certain amount of money to the government every month, he can just ask passers-by for tolls, and the government will not send anyone to interfere.
The remaining few letters were discussed by the two of them to pay the amount of money.
Collusion between officials and bandits! Such a thing was accidentally knocked out by them!
"Young Master, will we continue to take care of this matter?" Mo Yan asked. No matter what he did, he only followed Su Muwan's instructions.
Whether it is careless, Su Muwan was also a little confused, but if there were still people in Qingcheng who were suffering the same pain as the people in this village, she couldn't say the word "no matter".
She is not a Bodhisattva's heart, but she can't bear to die and refuse to save her, so she can only choose to do as much as she can while keeping herself safe...
"Standard! But this matter needs to be discussed carefully, so we continued to rush to Qingcheng to see what was going on!"
Su Muwan asked Xiaoliu and others to pack their luggage and go to the village chief to say goodbye.
"Village Chief, after we left, if someone asks everyone in the Heifeng Village, you will say that a group of merchants passed by. At night, they set off two fires to burn the Heifeng Village and the ancestral hall."
Su Muwan reminded that she was afraid that her parents would not receive Xie Da’s money recently, so she sent someone to investigate and bring disaster to the villagers.
It was because of the decisive work of Nanqiao. Mo Yan just told Su Muwan that the Heifeng Village on the mountain was also burned by Nanqiao.
He wanted to burn all the sins of the village and take them away together.
The village chief nodded cautiously, "My benefactor must pay attention to safety. I have sent someone to repair the road that was destroyed by the thieves in front of me. You and your group are just ready to go."
Su Muwan thanked him. When she was about to get on the carriage, the villagers came spontaneously and put some dry food, specialties and other things on Su Muwan's carriage to express her gratitude, and finally watched her leave.
On the carriage, Su Muwan turned her head and took a look. This small village was located at the foot of the mountain as she saw for the first time. However, the smoke from cooking was rising, and finally made people feel a little warm in their hearts.
On the way.
Because Qingfeng is still young, Su Muwan asked him to sit in the carriage with him.
Fortunately, the carriage was big enough, and the four people sat there didn't seem crowded at this time.
"Qingfeng, you said your voice was made by yourself. What's going on?"
Su Muwan still remembers what he said to him before.
Qingfeng had been told by Xiaoliu that Su Muwan's true identity, but he felt that no matter whether she was a man or a woman, she was her benefactor. This desire to follow and repay kindness will not change.
So he looked at Su Muwan and replied respectfully:
"Princess, Xie San is very male-like. He especially likes men with a nice voice and a pretty face. I was afraid that he would have any evil thoughts on me, so I used some prescriptions taught by my father to prepare a few medicines. After taking them, not only would he lose weight all day long, but his voice would also be hoarse all year round."
"There is such a medicine? Your father wants to have a good medical skills."
Su Muwan has never heard of such a drug, which can even change a person's body shape and voice.
"My father was the first person in Jiangnan's medical skills, but no matter how skilled he is, he can't save them." When talking about his relatives, Qingfeng lowered his head and looked a little lonely.
Xiao Liu felt sorry for him and quickly changed the topic: "Qingfeng, we thought you were just a child about ten years old before, but we didn't expect that you were thirteen years old, so you should grow up quickly."
"The kind of medicine I take will cause people to stop growing temporarily. If I don't take it anymore, I will gradually grow taller." Qingfeng blushed when talking about his height.
He just said that he was already thirteen, and even Mo Yan, who had always been calm, was very surprised because he was just a child, judging from his figure.
"It's okay, I believe Qingfeng will definitely grow tall in the future." Su Muwan touched his head and comforted her.
Qingfeng felt her tenderness and made up her mind that in the future, she not only had to grow taller but also practice medical skills, but also learn martial arts from Mo Yan and the others, so that she could protect Su Muwan.
