A spring water finally comes to the ground after a lot of hardships, and selflessly dedicates its vitality to nourish the earth it can flow through. It is powerful, it allows trees to grow, and it allows animals to survive.
, but it does not ask for anything in return. It carefully cares for the "children" under its care and quietly watches them ask for what they need from it.
But the things it protects were destroyed by two irritable "children". It wants to resist for its "children" who have been affected, but its power is small and it can't do anything.
I could watch helplessly as those two "children" destroyed the place beyond recognition. In the end, the two "children" also left injured.
They are all its children, and they are all distressed, but they can only slowly use their own small but long-term strength to repair everything. It believes that it will not be long before it has a different home and a new child.
Chen Mo dragged his tired body back to the stockade on the hilltop. The gate of the stockade was still closed tightly, like a loyal guard, protecting the tranquility behind it.
Chen Mo looked at the wall, exhaled softly, jumped up, and climbed into the wall. Those on the observation deck also saw the return of the young man, and did not react to his move.
Sound stops.
Chen Mo stumbled when he climbed over the wall and landed on the ground. Just as he steadied himself, he suddenly felt something going straight into his throat, something bitter and sweet. He covered his mouth with one hand and swallowed it back hard.
Damn it.
Chen Mo cursed secretly and walked towards his house as if nothing happened.
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Xiao Yanyu sitting at the door with a small wooden stool in a daze. When he saw Chen Mo coming back, he ran into Chen Mo's arms. I hadn't seen him for a long time. I missed him so much. I finally didn't have to follow him.
Beside Thirteenth Niang, there were no other children to bother her anymore. She just wanted to stay with Chen Mo. But when she got here, she remembered that he had gone out today, and she was in a bad mood. Of course she was happy to see Chen Mo back.
"List..."
"Pfft~"
Xiao Yanyu only felt that she was slapped in the face by Chen Mo. She thought it was Chen Mo's prank, but when she thought about it, it was wrong. Chen Mo never did such meaningless things. Then she saw a red mark on the corner of Chen Mo's mouth.
Before he could see the thing clearly, he saw Chen Mo lying towards him, and he was at a loss for a moment.
Chen Mo returned to the village in a daze, feeling that his body had reached its limit. He finally swallowed the blood and walked to his house with blurred eyes. He dimly saw a small figure sitting at the door, and he guessed who it was.
, before he could say anything, the little figure rushed towards him and bumped into his chest. The large mouthful of blood he had just swallowed surged up his throat again and was held in his mouth. He tried his best to swallow it back.
As he couldn't do it anymore, he sprayed out in one gulp, just in time to hit the face of Xiao Yanyu who was looking up to talk to him. His body suddenly softened and he lay down towards Xiao Yanyu.
"Can't fall."
Chen Mo didn't know where he got the strength, or because his willpower was too strong, or because he didn't allow himself to fall.
He squeezed out a bit of strength from somewhere in his body, and with his half-tilted body, he suddenly took a step forward. At the same time, he held Xiao Yanyu, who was almost crushed by him, with his hand, and held the broken blade in place with his other hand to stabilize his body.
But at this moment, everything he saw was spinning in a strange way.
Chen Mo slowly let go of Xiao Yanyu's hand, let her sit slowly on the wooden floor, and said with difficulty: "Close the door."
At this time, the two of them were already inside the door. Xiao Yanyu was awakened by Chen Mo's words. She got up on her hands and knees and closed the door. As soon as the door was closed, she noticed that her palms were covered with blood.
"Chen Mo, what's wrong with you?!"
Xiao Yanyu didn't care so much and stepped forward to help Chen Mo, who was half kneeling.
At this time, Chen Mo closed his eyes tightly, fighting against the dizziness that was spinning around him that day, and did not notice Xiao Yanyu's voice.
"Speak, Chen Mo, don't scare me." Seeing Chen Mo ignore him, Xiao Yanyu burst into tears.
"Help me go over and sit down." After a while, Chen Mo finally recovered from the spinning that day, but the feeling was still there, but not as strong.
"good."
Xiao Yanyu hugged his arm tightly and forcefully brought him to where he was sitting before. Only then did she realize that Chen Mo was so heavy. He had always taken care of her in the past, even when he was seriously injured by Thirteen Niang when she went up.
Someone threw him in the car.
Chen Mo sat down cross-legged and immediately started practicing.
"How long has it been, and you are still thinking about practicing? Are you crazy?" Xiao Yanyu was furious when he saw how he ignored his own body.
Chen Mo ignored her. He only felt that his body was turbulent and he had to calm it down.
"Chen Mo."
At this time, the door was pushed open and it was Thirteen Niangs.
When Thirteenth Niang saw Chen Mo coming back from a distance, she felt something was wrong. With his skill, there was no way he could not even stand firmly on the ground. Something must have happened, so she came over to take a look. But as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw the door.
There was a pool of blood on the ground, in the shape of a spray, which was so shocking that Thirteenth Niang didn't say anything else.
She turned to look at the two people in the room. Chen Mo didn't look as embarrassed as she thought. There were some bloodshot eyes at the corner of his mouth and he was currently practicing, while Xiao Yanyu was much more embarrassed, with blood stains on his face, as if
She was the one who got hurt.
"What's wrong with him?"
Thirteenth Niang walked to a bench and sat down.
"No, I don't know."
"Go wash your face and wipe away the blood stains at the door." Looking at the helpless little Yanyu, Thirteenth Niang said calmly.
"Go on, why are you still standing there? You're still afraid of dying. If he dies, it's useless for you to stand here." Thirteenth Niang said angrily.
Xiao Yanyu still hesitated and fetched water to do what Thirteenth Mother ordered.
"You're in such a mess after just one trip out, and you like jumping around so much." Thirteenth Niang looked at Chen Mo who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and sneered.
Xiao Yanyu washed his face stained with Chen Mo's blood, took a bucket of water and a piece of rag, and knelt on the ground at the door to wipe away the blood stains that had not dried up.
After everything was done, he immediately returned to Chen Mo and sat down, waiting quietly for him to open his eyes again.
Just waiting for dusk has arrived.
"Xiaoyu, go to the cabinet beside my bed and get a bottle of medicine, the white one with patterns." At this time, Thirteenth Niang said.
When Xiao Yanyu heard about getting the medicine, for the first time he didn't resist Thirteenth Niang's words and trotted out.
"Walk slowly, be careful if you sprain your feet. I took the medicine and went to Aunt Li's place to order something to eat. Do you hear me?"
"I heard it."
Thirteenth Niang pushed Xiao Yanyu away and looked at Chen Mo. She knew that he was awake, but she didn't open his eyes. She asked, "Why, did you meet a jackal or a cheetah?"
"Flower Tiger."
Chen Mo opened his eyes and said calmly.
Thirteenth Niang's eyes changed slightly. Of course he knew what Chen Mo meant by the Painted Tiger. Although she didn't mention anything about the Black Tiger to Chen Mo, maybe he knew about it in advance, but it was impossible.
Refers to a tiger.
"A chance encounter?"
"No, he came to find me."
After listening to Chen Mo's words, Thirteenth Niang changed her sitting position and said, "Have you known each other before?"
"Never seen it."
"It's really weird to come to you without seeing her before." This sentence seemed to be asking Chen Mo, and also the Thirteenth Niang herself.
"You wouldn't know?"
"I really didn't know that he would look for you, and you have only been up the mountain for a long time, and you have never even left the house. Today is your first time going out." Thirteenth Niang explained.
Chen Mo glanced at him, that was not what he asked, and Thirteenth Niang pretended not to know and continued to close her eyes.
"Did you fight with him?"
"Asking even though you know it."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Thirteenth Niang was very happy in her heart, and she greeted the flower-faced tiger in her heart: Scarred Tiger, you want to poach my corner? Can you do it casually? You have been rejected, I really want to see it.
The look on your face when you were rejected was such a pity.
"Why do you always like to cross the border to fight? How is this possible? You can't be down-to-earth, step by step, eat one bite at a time, don't stretch yourself to death, fortunately you can escape from him, otherwise
He caught you and hid you, where can I go to get you?"
After saying that, he glanced at Chen Mo again and continued: "It's better to learn a lesson. Why don't you agree to a condition and I will help you vent your anger?"
Thirteenth Niang took advantage of the opportunity and looked at Chen Mo with twinkling eyes.
"I told you, I'm not interested in being a bandit."
Thirteenth Niang sighed.
"I don't feel well, and the flower-faced tiger isn't much better either."
"Such a big sigh of relief. It would be nice to be able to escape. Why did he lose one of his arms? Tsk." Thirteenth Niang said disdainfully. Although she admitted that Chen Mo had two brushes, facing the flower-faced tiger, he couldn't do it.
There is no benefit to be gained.
"Who else in Black Tiger Mountain is more powerful than Painted Tiger?" Chen Mo asked.
"Yes, why, I don't have time to play with you, so you go out to find food by yourself?" Thirteenth Niang said with a smile.
"who?"
"Me."
"Who else?"
"No, the others are weaker than the Painted Tiger, why don't you try them out." Thirteenth Niang said while lighting the fire.
"Not interested." Chen Mo said lightly, but he also learned from Thirteenth Niang's side that the man was not from here, or he had hidden it deeper, so that even Thirteenth Niang, a local snake, didn't know.
"Hey, you kid, you can pick a tough nut to chew on and you won't be too upset."
Xiao Yanyu came back, holding a large pot of potatoes in his hand, placing it in front of Chen Mo, and said: "Chen Mo, you're awake, come and eat it while it's hot. You just vomited a lot of blood, you need to make up for it."
"Where's mine?" Thirteenth Niang said as she watched her give everything to Chen Mo.
"There are too many, I can't carry them."
"Huh." Thirteenth Niang waved her sleeves and was about to leave.
"I want to be here today." Xiao Yanyu said. In the past, she was taken back to her residence by Thirteenth Mother, but today she will stay here no matter what.
"Whatever you want, heartless girl." Thirteenth Niang waved her hand irritably.
