    The previous emperor passed away in the twenty-eighth year, and the new emperor Qian Zhao is scheduled to ascend the throne today.  Ye Yan and Lu Haoxue are both eleven years old and live in Gongyang Study.  My husband has not returned from his trip.  Yellow Calendar: Appropriate - going to office, enthroning, moving into a house, trading, collecting wealth, tailoring clothes, closing accounts, wearing hairpins, and making oaths; Taboo - making alliances, offering sacrifices, erecting monuments, and traveling.  "There is no body no colorful phoenix, two flying wings; uh, the next sentence, the next sentence is" The little boy with a snotty nose was trying hard to recite the poems of the literary giants.  ¡°It¡¯s easy to understand!¡± The little girl with a horn bun answered easily.  "You, you are really a living eunuch." The stuttering boy wiped his blue nose and said in admiration.  "Ah San! What nonsense are you talking about! If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. The tutor is the tutor, the examiner is the examiner, and they are all educated. The eunuch is the eunuch, and he is going to cause trouble in the court!" The girl said angrily  He rushed up and pinched the flesh on the boy's face, causing the boy to stutter and scream out in pain.  "No don't make it three just because of three three fires, fire, fire" "Who told you to say 'ah' three times!" "Hahahaha, children are so kind" Sit down  Uncle Li, who was basking in the sun on the side, was grinning.  Ye Yan was not very happy, thinking that Uncle Li was laughing at him, so he made a promise.  "I, I will I must talk about it in the future I can say a lot of things, no, I won't let you see it, you will look down on my stuttering." The boy swore to the girl.  "Idiot, I'm not looking down on you, but" The girl blinked and replied, "Okay, I'll wait for you!" Three hours later, at dusk, the sky gave off a strange purple light, and the people in the town  People gathered together to watch this vision coming from heaven.  "I heard that Your Majesty ascended the throne today, is this the auspicious color of the dragon's face?" the mayor asked.  "It's a pity that the most knowledgeable Mr. Gongyang has been away for more than a year, and no one can answer it.  "Mayor, I heard that there was another war in Jiayuguan last year, and the Turkic bandits came to plunder and disturb people again. What should we do now?" asked a town citizen.  "Alas, how could we know this? Everyone in the imperial court was very busy with the death of the late emperor due to the fierce Turkic attack. Who has time to help strengthen the pass?" lamented the mayor.  Ye Yan and Lu Haoxue walked around in the crowd, wanting to see how the new boundary markers would be erected tomorrow.  "Uncle, make way" "Children, stop running around."  "Wow!" At this time, the sky was already dark, and the sun was like blood on the horizon. The sun sets early in winter. It is difficult to see this kind of scenery, no  Hurry up, it may be gone in the blink of an eye.  So everyone pushed forward.  "Huh" The two finally came to the new monument.  "Fengxiang Town Gong Yang Yu's work. Ha, it turns out to be Mr.'s handwriting. No wonder he is so good at calligraphy." "I've seen it a long time ago. Whoever looks like you can't hold a pen well!" Lu Haoxue crossed her hips.  Ye Yan was eager to try, "Let me see if I can lift it. I want to see the other side." As soon as he finished speaking, he inserted his hands into the soft soil and started to lift it hard - "One, two, three Hey!" Stone tablet  It shook under Ye Yan's forceful lifting, and gradually, one side of the stone tablet began to lift off the ground.  "But this stone tablet is the boundary stone of the New Territory. It is extremely hard and heavy. Xiao Yeyan's strength is obviously not enough" Human nature is that unpredictable things happen.  Just when Ye Yan was about to let go and give up, a gust of black wind came from Shuobei and rolled up a pile of sand and stones "Ah!" Ye Yan was hit on the head by sand and stones, and there were stars in his eyes. When he leaned forward, he suddenly  Driven the stone tablet. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The stone tablet was erected - da da da da "Yo yo! yo yo!" The strange sound of horse hoofbeats and shouts suddenly came from Shuofang.  "The Turkic Ghost Riders are coming!!!" Xiao Xueyue looked at the billowing black clouds in the sky, dumbfounded and unable to speak for a long time.  "Sister Xueyue" It's like speaking with a stone in your mouth, no!  This was the sound of Ye Yan enduring the pain, extremely weak.  "Ye Yan!" Lu Haoxue hurriedly ran to help Ye Yan, who fell to the ground with blood on his face, "What's wrong?! What's going on! Why are you injured? Where are you injured!" A series of questions.  Ye Yan had nothing to say.  He pointed his finger, indicating that Lu Haoxue had a clear idea "Everyone, run quickly!!! Run as far as you can!!!" The mayor stepped onto the altar and shouted urgently.  Instantly, the scene was in chaos.  In the center of the town, the originally crowded situation has deteriorated to the point of being trampled under the feet of the fleeing crowd.?, all are women, children, old and weak.  Babies were heard crying from the houses on both sides of the town, and the women were panicking. The men were urging and waving, as if they were about to throw away the children Some people knew that they could not outrun the bloody horse, so they picked up farm tools such as rakes and shovels and prepared to fight to the death.  fight.  Everything indicates that the town is about to end.  The clatter of horse hooves came closer, and the ground was clearly shaking.  Crowds of people began to flow towards the entrance of the town. Facing the townspeople who were like a herd of beasts, Lu Haoxue had only one thought in her mind - [Get away, be sure to protect Ye Yan, and then] "Dong dong dong dong dong"  "Yeah!" "Help!"  Chaos begins from the moment the butcher knife is raised; despair breaks out from the moment the first head rushes into the sky with a gushing stream of blood; death begins from this moment.  Destined.  Lu Haoxue pulled Ye Yan, who was still conscious but already in a daze, and ran, twisting and turning through alleys and paths, hiding everywhere.  At only nine years old, she knew that it was useless to escape back to her aunt's house. At this moment, there was only one place the wine cellar, located underground on the second street in the backyard of Uncle Li's house, with a gap in the wall of Uncle Li's house.  The vents are enclosed with fences and used to diffuse air in winter.  This place is absolutely secret. Except for Ye Yan¡¯s missing ¡°uncle¡±, only Uncle Li and the mayor know about it.  The wine cellar contains the thousand-year-old Fenjiu wine found in the tombs of ancient emperors. It is said that it has turned into a paste.  The streets were full of desperate roars and cries. The "fighters" had already been beheaded or cut into pieces Lu Haoxue did not dare to look sideways, lowered her head, listened to the sound and crept into the hole.  Inside, he pulled Ye Yan in who could no longer hold up "Ye Yan, Ye Yan!" Xue Yue shouted.  "Woo" Ye Yan could no longer speak complete words.  Xue Yue tore off the cotton cloth on her body, followed the way her aunt bandaged the patient, and tied a few bundles for Ye Yan, and Ye Yan also passed out in Lu Haoxue's arms.  Lu Haoxue carefully hid Ye Yan in the pile of wine and made a pillow and quilt with red silk cloth. After "arrangement", she was smart and knew that Ye Yan needed a good rest now, and she had to go up and pull her aunt down to let the doctor  Ye Yan was saved by his aunt's treatment However, there was no calm outside for a long time, until - "That Turkic bastard! He's too bullying!" Uncle Li's voice sounded like he was standing in front of the house.  Lu Haoxue then remembered that he could not "come out" of the cave easily now, otherwise, both of them would be discovered, and the Turks were nearby!  She stepped on the wine table, climbed up to the only "skylight" and looked out.  In the center of the town, the streets were stained with blood and there were several corpses of passers-by; in the middle of the street, the townspeople were piled together, and around them, there was a group of about forty Turkic cavalry.  The altar sang a mysterious song.  If the rhythm is uneven and the pitch drops, you will know it is not a good tune.  Suddenly, there was a burst of chirping voices from the Turks, and more than forty cavalry suddenly turned towards Lu Haoxue.  To be precise, it is the direction of Uncle Li.  A man from the Central Plains dressed in black walked out of the cavalry.  Judging from his body shape, he must be from the south.  "Is Mr. Gongyang here?" came his hoarse voice.  "He's a running dog! You're going to die!" Uncle Li didn't talk nonsense to him, just picked up the broom and swept away.  A strong wind blew by The young Lu Haoxue could not understand how Uncle Li, who was holding a broom, could defeat the man in black holding a strange scimitar.  She would not even understand what happened next - Uncle Li was a hidden master. His broom seemed to be born with the wind. With just one swing, the Turkic cavalry fell off the horse.  .  However, the man in black didn't move at all. His scimitar was faster, like lightning. A knife-shaped arc stretched out from the handle of the scimitar, and the tip of the knife was fiercely inserted into Uncle Li's heart This arc has always been Lu Haoxue's heart.  The nightmare - like the sting of a scorpion, pierced into Uncle Li's heart and deep into Lu Haoxue's soul.  The real fight was extremely thrilling, but the only thing Lu Haoxue recalled afterwards was this silhouette.  In addition, Lu Haoxue also saw something that changed the fate of her life, a scene she will never forget.  "Well" Xiao Yeyan opened his eyes, and everything he saw was dark; he broke away from the red silk cloth on his body and groped around, "Sister Xueyue, Sister Xueyue?" "Ye Yan don't  Afraid, Ye Yan, I'm here" [It was Sister Xue Yue's voice. She touched and grabbed her hand] "Where are we?" Ye Yan pulled one.  After holding his warm hands, he suddenly felt more at ease and asked.  "Wine cellar" Lu Haoxue responded, her hot breath blowing on Ye Yan's face.Ye Yan finally felt relieved, "Ye Yan? Are you okay?" "Well, my head feels itchy now. I had a dream before, and it seemed like I was surrounded by a strange black mist, and then I started to feel it"  Ye Yan's eyes gradually adapted to the darkness here. He found the skylight and found that it was blocked by something heavy. He pushed hard "Bah" The dazzling sunlight shone directly down.     ¡¾This is!  ?  ] Ye Yan was stunned.  "Ye Yan do you remember what happened?" "Fafa what happened? Why am I here?" Ye Yan looked back, "Ah!" Lu Haoxue's eyes completely lost their sparkle, as if  As if she was greatly frightened and shocked, "That's right" She smiled bitterly and closed her eyes slightly.  "Tell me what happened, Sister Xueyue." Ye Yan felt that Sister Xueyue in front of him was no longer something he recognized. She was just like an adult, with many more thoughts that he didn't understand.  "It's nothing, it's just that everyone has gone to a place far away and they are no longer in the town" Lu Haoxue seemed to be talking in a dream.  "Everyonehas abandoned us? No! Nono, I heard Mr. Gongyang say, generally, thisthat is, everyonewu" Ye Yan suddenly started crying.  Lu Haoxue opened her eyes and looked at Ye Yan who was crying. She stretched out her little hand and wiped Xiao Yeyan's tears. Her little hand, which was stained with a lot of black dust, left a few "cat whiskers" on Ye Yan's face.  .  Lu Haoxue stood up and opened the wooden door of the wine cellar, and the cellar suddenly became brighter.  She looked at the desolation in front of her, recalling the past prosperity and joy here, Mr. Gongyang's beard-blowing glare, Uncle Li's recliner rocking back and forth, and her aunt's cup crushing medicinal materials Pieces of memory fragments were destroyed.  She gradually buried it deep in her heart.  Gradually, bloodshot eyes began to appear in her eyes, and something called hatred took root and sprouted in her young heart The piece of rag under her feet belonged to Uncle Li He was at the end  At the critical moment, it turns into blood and water to resist the fierce fire; it protects its own courtyard, protects the thousand-year-old wine, and protects them.  "I defend the mountains and rivers with my blood, and dare to teach the heaven not to open my eyes!" Uncle Li's last oath echoed in Lu Haoxue's mind for a long time.  At that time, after the Turks finished their work, the men in black took the lead in setting fire and burned the entire Fengxiang town to ashes. However, the fire stopped raging around the blood circle drawn by Uncle Li. The most amazing thing was that when the Turks  After walking away, the fire was swept away by the strange black mist everything looked desolate.  It seems that this single house is the only one left in the world.  "Everyone was burned to death by the fire, and now we are the only two left. Uncle Li just wanted to save us" Xue Yue did not tell the truth, but only said that it was a massacre.  The two young children could only simply build a tomb for Uncle Li and kowtow to the land and the creatures who once lived on it.  Homeless, moonwhose house will it fall on tomorrow?  "Poor baby What a sin That traitor must die!!" Full of anger but furious, the old man with gray hair and childlike face who walked towards him was the leader of the Scorpio Sect, Gu Chengming.  "It's all those bastards! What harmed you, you suffered" Gu Chengming gently hugged the two children, as compassionately as a grandfather caring for his grandchildren.  "You guys go down and look for any traces of him!" Gu Chengming ordered to dozens of female disciples behind him who were surrounded by veils.  "Yes! Leader!" Dozens of people suddenly disappeared, as if they didn't exist in the first place.  The Scorpio Phantom Step is the highest level of footwork in the martial arts world.  The Scorpion Demon Sect is still the leader of the four martial arts sects.  When Lu Haoxue saw their "spells" of such high quality, she felt an irresistible impulse in her heart - "Grandpa Immortal, please accept me as your disciple. I am willing to fetch water, cook, and carry food for you" "Okay  Child, let¡¯s go home with grandpa first, and then we¡¯ll talk about it when we get to our new home" Gu Chengming looked at the girl who was about to kneel down kindly and pitifully, and couldn't help but feel compassion; with a slight lift of his finger, Lu Haoxue stopped.  Stopped kneeling.  "Leader!" A woman flashed to Gu Chengming's side. After whispering a few words, Gu Chengming seemed to be relieved. Then he bowed deeply to the tomb and protected the two homeless children to return to the religion.  Among the group of female disciples behind him, at some point, a large wooden coffin suddenly appeared, with a faint smell of wine overflowing From the beginning to the end, Ye Yan was watching, watching without saying a word.  [I saw it The moment I fell asleep, I seemed to be surrounded by a purple-red ocean, and my eyes stung. Slowly, when I adapted, I saw the man holding the knife??, and¡ª¡ªhis past]
