Wu Na took the less than 5,000 people left in Wujiabao, Ma Haohaotang, and arrived at Huangjia Village at noon, where the Xuzhou rebels massacred the village. Qianjia Village and Huangjia Village are across a hill.

Already.

Wu Na suddenly felt upset. She gently pulled the horse, looked at the towering snow-capped mountains, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and murmured to herself: "Sir, how should I face you?

…”

She recalled that when she was six or seven years old, she was led by her father into the bustling city of Xuzhou for the first time, a place completely different from the home in the Jiuli Mountain cottage. Then she entered a private school with ancient charm and the sound of books, and met

Mr. Qian, who is so kind and friendly that people can't help but want to get close to him.

Jiuli Mountain is far away from Xuzhou City. In order to facilitate his studies, he had to live in Xuzhou City, that is, Qian Ning's home.

Qian Ning's knowledge was very good and his character was outstanding. Although he had no fame and no reputation as a filial, honest and talented man, there were still many wealthy families who were willing to send their children to his private school. Of course, there were more children from poor families. With Wu

Like Na, most of those children who lived far away from home had to rely on Qian Ning in addition to paying a small amount of tuition fees, two meals a day and accommodation. Qian Ning took them in, and the fee was fixed, but he never refused.

Don't complain either.

In addition to teaching every day, he bent over and stuck out his butt in the yard to wash the clothes of these students, and then cooked for these little mouths waiting for food. This is why Zhang Yang was able to cook and cook a table by himself during that visit.

The reason for the good food.

After working as a teacher every day, he also has to be a father and a mother. After settling these little ancestors, Qian Ning is busy and happy instead of letting them starve and freeze.

Fortunately, Qian Ning's basic skills were very solid. He never had to prepare lessons or bring books. After entering the private school, he could talk non-stop all morning just by banging the table.

Wu Na has been a rare smart and beautiful girl since she was a child. She is loved by everyone. In addition, she has a cheerful personality, a sense of loyalty, and is good at fists and kicks. She often comes out to teach the annoying guys who bully others and bring justice to the weak classmates. Soon she

She became the eldest sister of her classmate's father-in-law, even though she was the youngest among the twenty-odd students in the class.

Wu Na was very naughty at that time, and after getting to know so many friends and being so admired by them, her little mind immediately sublimated, and she didn't know how high the sky was.

She didn't like to sit there blankly, shaking her head while reciting poems and books. In her view, reading and literacy were just a minor path, and doing justice for God and eliminating harm for the people was the great path in the world. So at a young age, she took a group of classmates with her.

, causing trouble in Xuzhou city.

There was an uproar in the city, and people came to Qian Ning every day to complain and scold her. Qian Ning even lost money but still had to laugh at her. Finally, Qian Ning wanted to examine her homework, and she was dumbfounded.

Qian Ning was calculating the old and new accounts together. He picked up the wooden ruler and slapped her palms more than twenty times, turning her white and tender little hands into buns.

But her father, Wu Lie, had known Qian Ning for a long time. Before leaving, he warned her not to contradict him, even if he was beaten or scolded! She admired her father very much at that time and felt that everyone in the village listened to her father.

He is much taller and taller than her, so he is naturally the most powerful person in the world. His father's words are reasonable and he cannot resist.

Although it hurt a lot, she neither resisted nor complained about the pain. She just gritted her teeth and endured it. In the end, other students in the class were frightened and cried, and she didn't even bite!

Qian Ning looked at this stubborn female disciple, shook his head in distress, and sighed, he had only accepted a female student in his whole life, and she was a devil who was even more difficult to discipline than a boy.

But after fighting, he still loved this disciple very much. When he went back in the evening, he took out the medicinal wine that he had collected for a long time and rubbed it on her. Although he was still very serious, he taught her a lesson and applied medicine at the same time, but the little girl faced the light.

, looking at her husband’s graying temples, the resentment in her heart could no longer be retained, leaving only deep gratitude and deep respect.

The men she respected throughout her life were first her father, then her Mr. Qian, then her master, senior brother, and then... of course, now, there is Zhang Yang.

Since then, Wu Na has become much more obedient and sensible, and Qian Ning has never beaten or scolded him again. The teacher and the student spent three years with such care and respect. Wu Na will never forget these three years in her life. With so many

The friends played together, worked together to find ways to deal with Mr.'s assessment, worked together to find ways to make Mr. happy, cooked a table of unpalatable meals to celebrate Qian Ning's birthday, washed his own clothes together to lighten his burden, and by the way, made Mr.

It was also washed, but it was torn. Qian Ning had to find a way to sew it up before wearing it again...

Those were Wu Na's best memories. Compared with the later years when she studied alone in the mountains, with only a few masters and brothers for company, she missed that childhood time even more.

There are not so many family burdens, there are not so many interest entanglements, there are not so many intrigues, there are not so many involuntary smiles, everything is so simple, everything is so sincere and simple. I have stayed in the world for a long time.

, only then did I feel that that period of time was charming.

However, people always grow up and change. They become taller, bigger, beautiful, ugly, good or bad. No one knows what they will look like when we meet again in a few years or more.

Will the friends you played with so closely back then stab you in the back and sell you out in exchange for your own prosperity? Just like, I’m not sure if the teacher who was full of respect and admiration back then would stab you in the back for his own happiness.

I'll ruin your life with my own hands.

"Miss..." At this time, Lao Hei stepped forward and asked worriedly. Only then did Wu Na come back from her thoughts sadly. She waved her hand gently: "Keep going!"

At this moment, two people ran over from not far away. Wu Na took a closer look and saw that they were Ma Qi and He Ju who were under Bo Xiu's command. She had seen them twice and had some impressions.

"Let them come here!" Wu Na waved her hand on the horse to stop Lao Hei's important people from going to stop their actions. After a while, the two men ran over panting. Before they could catch their breath under the horse, Wu Na saluted with clasped fists.

Then he said: "Miss, Mr. Liu, Commander Bo has cleared out all the hidden sentries in the surrounding ten miles, and Qian Ning was also arrested in Qianjia Village. Seeing that the lady hadn't arrived yet, Mr. Liu sent us to Xiapi to take a look.

It depends on the situation, but I met the lady here!"

When Wu Na heard that Qian Ning was arrested, she could not say out of hatred or heartache, but out of confusion and help. He nodded lightly: "Two brothers, thank you for your hard work. Please come with me to Qianjia Village to meet Mr. Liu."

"Here!" Ma Qihe promised with clasped fists, and then retreated into the team, following the winding team along the way they came.

The large army was stationed outside Qianjia Village, and Long Yang stayed behind. Wu Na took Lao Hei and a dozen of her confidants along the creek at the entrance of the village and almost entered the village. They came to a place she didn't want to face but had to go.

place.

"Miss!" The guard at the door of the courtyard saw Wu Na and others approaching and hurriedly bowed and saluted. Wu Na nodded and took off her fiery red cloak. Lao Hei hurriedly stepped forward to take it and quickly walked into the already opened main room.

"Ying'er, you're finally here!" Zhang Yang saw Wu Na, stood up with a smile and went to the door to greet her.

Wu Na forced a smile at him with a sad face, and Zhang Yang felt a little distressed. He gently held her shoulders and comforted her softly: "Don't be sad, things have come to this point, and you always have to face things.

Aren't you still with me?"

Wu Na was a little embarrassed and gently opened her big hands and said softly: "I know...someone is watching."

Only then did Zhang Yang realize that Bo Xiu and others turned their heads with strange expressions, looking around, and said with a dry smile: "It's okay, they are just not used to it. It will be fine if they see it more often in the future... Aha, Qian Ning, now Ying

My son is here, and I said whatever I wanted to say. Plead guilty where you should, and confess where you should. If you have a good attitude and are willing to cooperate, maybe I can reduce your sentence."

Qian Ning twisted his numb arms and looked at Wu Na with a complex expression. After a long time, he said apologetically: "I couldn't forgive you two last time. I guess I won't say anything else now."

, you don’t want to listen either... I just want to tell you that sir has never thought of harming you."

Wu Na just moved the corner of her mouth, then turned her head and stood there motionless. Qian Ning continued: "I, Qian Ning, wanted to teach all my life and be able to see my students become successful and successful. As a teacher, I

, that’s enough... I have been teaching for seven years, and you are my only female student, the one who gives me the most headaches and the one I love the most... You are extremely smart and have a high level of understanding, but you are all right.

Apart from studying, you have never been willing to spend more energy on the knowledge I entrusted to you. When you have time, you must go outside to play with those boys, climb trees and build tiles... Haha, even though that time

It has been a bit hard and tiring, but it is the most fulfilling and happiest thing in my life. Watching you become more sensible and grow up day by day, I am also sincerely gratified. I have never married a wife and had children. I regard you as my

I regard it as the loss of my own child... It’s just that I made a mistake and ended up in a den of thieves. In order to survive and repay my kindness, I have helped the evildoers in these years. Ever since I met Zhou Tong, I fell in love with her and wanted to be with her.

We have been together for a lifetime, and I have long been tired of living like this. I am determined to take her out of that whirlpool and live a peaceful life... But Guan Hai is determined to recruit you and let me help. Before that,

How can he let me go back? So——"

"So, you set up a trap and waited for us to jump, right?!" By the time Wu Na turned her face away, tears were already streaming down her face.

Qian Ningnai nodded and continued: "I knew from the beginning that doing this would hurt you deeply, but... I just want to go on fighting with the world for the rest of my life with the person I like, and gain the freedom to be a man.

The minimum happy life... one side is a student, the other side is a lover, I... chose her, and gave up on you..."

Wu Na's tears rolled down her cheeks, but she didn't wipe them away. She raised her proud jade neck, holding back the sobs and stared at Qian Ning dimly with tears. She laughed at herself with a smile that was uglier than crying: "

Yes, yes, in your heart I am just a student who will only upset you and get you into trouble. How can I compare to that little wife who is gentle and considerate to you and takes care of you in every possible way... Who is not selfish?

?Which person has to strictly abide by the rules and precepts throughout his life and be a good person without a trace of stain?...Haha, I can't do it, how can I force you to do it...You have nothing to be sorry for me, it's just the kindness we had in the past.

Just write it off and pretend we have never met..."

Qian Ning nodded gloomily and remained silent.

Zhang Yang pitifully wiped the tears on Wu Na's face with his sleeve, and whispered: "Ying'er, we can't just let him go back like this. We still hope that he will help us trick the city gate into opening and go straight to Fei County's lair.

Woolen cloth!"

Wu Na rolled her eyes at him angrily and said, "Am I that emotional? I understand."

After Zhang Yang heard this, he chuckled, squatted down and said to Qian Ning: "You are guilty of death, but you can't escape life. Since you know that you took refuge in Guan Hai, you made a mistake and regretted it for eternity. Now you have done so many things for him.

, the kindness has been repaid long ago, and it’s time to turn around. To tell you the truth, the end of the Yellow Turban Army is coming soon. It is a wise choice to leave the Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible. No matter who takes over the world, the Yellow Turban Army will be destroyed.

Destroyed. For the sake of a happy life for you and my mistress who has never met me, take action quickly. Once Guan Hai is eliminated, no one will restrain you anymore, and no one will come back to disturb your peaceful life... The words have been said

At this point, it’s your choice!”

Zhang Yang finally smiled and patted Qian Ning on the shoulder, stood up, walked to Wu Na who was still sobbing sadly, patted her back, and said softly: "Don't be sad, go out to enjoy the plum blossoms and get some fresh air, and wait until you come back."

By then, there should be an answer here.”

Wu Na nodded silently, looked back at Qian Ning who was deep in thought, and followed Zhang Yang out of the room with light steps.

Zhang Yang pointed to the blooming plum blossoms in the courtyard and recited loudly: "There are many plum blossoms in the corner, and Ling Han blooms alone. I know it is not snow from afar, but only the faint fragrance comes... How about it, a good poem?"

Zhang Yang wanted to make Wu Na happy, but Wu Na just lowered her head thoughtfully and kicked the snow with her feet. When she saw Zhang Yang showing off, she just raised her head and smiled at him lightly, without saying anything else.

Zhang Yang was not discouraged and continued to recite loudly: "The painter doesn't paint the face, but he is afraid that others will think I am straight. It is impossible that we don't know each other when we meet. Xia Fu has always carved jade figures."

Wu Na remained dull and silent, Zhang Yang was discouraged. She rolled her eyes, smiled, stepped forward and whispered: "Ying'er, I found something. When you see it, I promise you will forget all your worries immediately and come with me!"

After saying that, he pulled Wu Na, who was half-way through but still very curious, into the vacant side room of Qian Ning's house.

"You all go to the main room and watch Qian Ning. Don't let him escape! The lady and I are discussing top-secret matters inside. No one is allowed to come close and eavesdrop. Do you hear me?" Zhang Yang said to the person guarding the door.

Several soldiers said seriously.

"Here!" Several soldiers hesitated for a moment, but when they saw Zhang Yang's unquestioning eyes, they replied, and then left quickly.
To be continued...
