The clear clouds and the faint sky, and the hidden singing came.

A breeze blew across Mount Du, rolled up a scent of flowers and grass clips and flew into the distant sky, and then disappeared into the sky.

A pretty girl of thirteen or fourteen years old sat in the forest on the hillside.

She was wearing a coarse fangs, with delicate and smooth skin, and her black hair was tied into a bun on the top of her head, fixed with a simple polished branch. Her eyes were slender and bright, with a calm and mature look. At this moment, she was staring at the slowly flowing clouds in the sky, as if she had been intoxicated by the song melody that could not be heard clearly.

The singing outside the distant mountains became more and more ethereal, and finally disappeared between heaven and earth.

The little girl licked her lips with unsatisfactory feelings, and took out a water tank made of bamboo tubes from a bamboo basket filled with various green leaves beside her. After taking a sip, she stood up and put the bamboo basket on her back, and walked down Dushan swaying.

The sky gradually became red, and the shadows of pulling the little girl down the mountain were getting longer and longer.

There are two villages at the foot of Dushan, Qianji Village and Houji Village.

Most of the people living in Ji Village in Qianji Village were rich families with land and fields, or skilled and capable, while Ji Village was a family that had been living in a tight life and could only help with Ji Village in Qianji Village, or those who could only rely on Dushan’s production to survive.

The little girl went down the mountain road, turned right and entered Houji Village, entered a thatched cottage next to the village, and then began to restrain the things she brought back from her backpack.

Several nearby women saw the movement in the yard and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and look at it a few times, shouting loudly: "Shu Ying, have you not picked up some mountain delicacies today? The roots of the herbs you picked up are not as valuable as that mountain delicacies! How can you live like this?"

Shu Ying smiled slightly, not caring at all: "The days will always go on."

Several women looked at each other, looked at Shu Ying with satisfaction, and then started whispering to themselves.

They didn't care whether Shu Yan's life would be better, they just cared about whether she didn't pick up valuable things and came back. As long as Shu Yan's life was more difficult than them, they would be at ease. This is not that they have any hatred with Shu Yan, but that under such a difficult living environment, some people live more difficult than themselves, so that they can have the courage to continue to live strong!

Shu Ying naturally understood what these women thought, so he always dealt with them with distantness and politeness.

The night gradually took away the last sunset.

The direction of the village of Qianji was faintly filled with candlelight, jumping in the night like stars. With the joyful and quarrels of some children, Houji Village was even more silent and desperate.

In the middle of the night, the moonlight quietly hid into the dark clouds. The drizzle fell from the sky and fell on the eaves and soon formed a small water curtain, which dripped and dropped to the ground, making a loud noise.

In the yard of the hut, the ticking sound was even louder.

Shu Yan lay on the wooden bed, listening to the movements in the house speechlessly. In the end, he could only open his eyes, find the wooden basin in the house in the dark, spread the cloth towel at the bottom of the basin, and then followed the ticking sound of the leaking rain to catch the rain. After hearing the ticking sound, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to continue falling asleep.

However, after only two steps, Shu Yan heard a burst of rapid footsteps in the rain, as if it was nearby, but a dog barking did not sound!

Just as he was listening attentively, a sudden knock on the door sounded loudly. Shu Yan was so scared that he suddenly burst into cold hair. He widened his eyes and looked at the direction of the wooden door, not daring to move.

"Is the Shu family girl here?"

Just when Shu Yan was so nervous that he didn't know what to do, a familiar woman's voice rang out, with a hint of trembling in his tone.

"Miss Shu family!! Are you here? I am your third aunt of the Liu family!!"

The knock on the door sounded again, and Aunt Liu's third crying anxiously: "Miss Shu family... open the door..."

Shu Yan quickly took a few deep breaths and began to think quickly.

She knew that the third aunt of the Liu family lived not far from her yard. She was a famous shrew in Houji Village. She had never given anyone a good look on weekdays. She was very capable of causing trouble. When she saw her, she was called Sangmenxing, etc., when did she politely call her Shu girl?

It was midnight now, and the third aunt of the Liu family came to knock on the door of a woman who lived alone for no reason. It was impossible to be a good thing. Thinking of the messy footsteps on the rain, Shu Ying didn't dare to say anything. She didn't know what kind of consequences she would have if she opened the door.

Houji Village has many ideas for beating her a lonely little girl!

Thinking of this, Shu Ying suddenly calmed down, narrowed his eyes and directly fumbled to the door, fucked the wooden stick he had prepared and held it in his hand.

"Miss Shu family, we are here to ask for help, and there is no malice!" A man's voice suddenly rang outside the door, and he said to himself: "I heard that the girl collects herbs in the mountains on weekdays, so she took the liberty to come for medical treatment..."

"My herbs are outside the house. Take whatever you need to do by yourself! I don't know much about medical skills!" Shu Ying frowned and spoke coldly. She had never been revealed in front of anyone. How could she come to her for help?

The outside of the house suddenly became silent. Just when Shu Qing was about to relax, it exploded with a loud bang. The already vulnerable wooden door shattered instantly and blew into the hut with a storm!

Before Shu Yi's stick was hit, he was caught by a powerful arm.

"Miss Shu, I offended!" A man in black looked at Shu Yan with an expressionless face, and then snatched the wooden stick with great force, and then said coldly: "Let's see, let's see, we will leave before dawn and will not cause trouble for the girl."

Shu Ying widened his eyes and looked at the broken door panels that could not be broken on the ground, illuminated by a dim flame, and could only take a deep breath and look at the "bandits" who broke into the door.

There were a total of sixteen people entering the room with the fire. The one who blocked her stick was a man in his thirty years old, wearing a hat and wearing a black suit, with strong facial features and bright eyes. After snatching the stick, he immediately stepped back and signaled everyone behind him to enter the room. After bringing the third aunt of the Liu family in, he said again: "For the sake of the girl's reputation, this Liu family woman will accompany the girl."
