A woman in thick linen clothes was carrying firewood and an axe hung around her waist, walking in the 28 mountainous areas outside the deserted Hangzhou city. She passed by a few villages and tombs, and was a little sad in front of her. This war disaster happened not long ago, and her relatives might be among the dead creatures.

Occasionally, when you see a village where smoke rises, the previous unhappiness is that the smoke disappears.

The woman headed towards the smoke-filled hut.

...

There was a fence in the open space in front of the door, and green vegetables were planted inside. A strong man left the vegetable garden with a hoe and returned to the house. When he put down the hoe, his arms trembled. He looked at Shichen and took out a dry thing from his black jacket and mixed it with a bowl of cold water to rinse it.

Then, he sat in front of the earth stove and fireworks rose.

In such an environment, this man was not uncomfortable. When he didn't know the talented Fang La, Shi Bao lived like this. However, since his arms were broken, he fell into confusion for a while. At that time, he sat for a whole day, watching the sunrise and the sunset.

Sometimes he wandered around the nearby mountains and villages in chaos. When he was full of energy, he never thought about it. He wanted to understand the dilapidated villages.

The pain and hatred that were still left in my heart gradually faded away from the guilt of doing something wrong.

He watched the flame burning the dark bottom of the pot in the stove, and he was stunning. Even a bright red figure stood there on the threshold behind him. When a faint fragrance wafted, Shi Bao suddenly turned around and reached out to hold the knife.

But the hands are empty.

"Who are you?"

Even so, he still vigilantly touched a fire stick as thick as a wrist and held it in his hand.

In the red glow of the setting sun, the woman leaned on the door, as if she had merged into the glow of light. The next second, the woman opened her eyes, her eyes looked like ice thorns, and her lips opened: "Shi Bao, the former general of Nanli, will actually live like a farmer."

Shi Bao was shocked and then slashed at the other party with a fire stick.

Over there, Hongxiu just waved lightly, and the wooden stick pressed off broke free from the man's hand and flew out. His whole body couldn't help but retreated, and then stopped until he hit the wooden pillar supporting the wooden beam.

The dust fell down, falling all over Shibao's body.

"Who are you?"

Shi Bao roared in a deep voice. With his former temperament, he had already killed him. But now he is no longer the former General Nanli, like a seriously injured tiger, unable to move, and could only roar a few times.

"Are you satisfied with this kind of life?" The woman walked in with her lotus stepping in, looking at the small house.

Shi Bao gasped and stared at the other party: "Why are you not satisfied? If you just come here to humiliate me, your purpose has been achieved, and you can leave...Neither!"

Outside the house, footsteps sounded, and when the sound in the house was heard, the woman with firewood on her back stood at the door and burst into tears. She covered her mouth with one hand and looked at the woman who was in a bad intention and her husband in panic.

The next moment, the woman in coarse linen fucked the axe hanging around her waist and screamed sharply: "Go out! Get out! Brother Bao's arm is ruined. Why are you here to do? Go out, otherwise I...I'll chop off your hands."

The woman suddenly screamed, wanting to protect something, but as soon as she crossed the threshold, she was flicked by the other party from the air and flew backwards and fell to the ground. The tied firewood was scattered all over the ground. However, the woman still struggled to get up, and her originally beautiful face was as fierce as if she was mad.

"She is Fengyi, who was once under your command... She is good-looking, and it seems that she is a long-lasting person who can stay and live a hard life with you."

Xiaopinger said this and she headed towards her.

"Don't hurt her."

Shi Bao rushed over and hugged Feng Yi who was rising from the ground, and looked at her if she was injured. Then she turned her face toward the person on the other side of the door. Her tone was very plain. While speaking, she picked up the firewood on the ground one by one.

"Didn't you ask me, are you satisfied with such a life? I'll answer you now, very satisfied. Without the neighing of a sword and an iron horse, and the warmth that has never been before, it is completely different from the days when I used to lick blood from a knife. Haha... how can you understand? When the two of you live together, it's like losing everything, each other is the only treasure left."

"You don't understand." He buried his head and sorted out the broken firewood, and repeated this sentence plainly.

Xiao Pinger closed her eyes, rolled her fingers in her palm, clenched them into a fist, clenched them tightly, and then let them go.

She opened her eyes and looked at the man who was more like a farmer than a general, "What if I cure your arms? Will you still be willing to come back?"

On the ground, the man with his back to Xiao Ping'er trembled for a moment, and asked in a hesitant voice: "Mingjiao?"

"The Ming Cult no longer exists... It is called the Sun and Moon God Sect now, are you back?"

Fengyi looked at the woman hostilely, but held the man's wrist in one hand to pick up firewood, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's go back..."

“…we won’t go back.”

Shi Bao gently patted his wife's back, stood up, with a straight figure.

"Li Tianrun came some time ago. I said this to him at that time. Now I will tell you too." His tone was firm and his eyes were directed at the other party.

"People can go the wrong way, do the wrong thing, even hit the wrong person, or kill the wrong person, but they just have to look back. During this period, I turned back and saw that the once beautiful Jiangnan, which had become a purgatory on earth, was all our fault. If these arms were ruined, it was the cause and effect of my Shi Bao doing the wrong thing. I should bear it. I will never blame anyone."

"The hut you are in now was once sitting in a family, and it should be happy. But when Xiaofeng and I came over, there were only stinking corpses in the family. That day, I couldn't move my arms. I watched Xiaofeng cry while burying the bodies in the soil. Xiaofeng was not crying because of fatigue, but these people. We were all pretentious and arrogant at the beginning, but I had thought about the life and death of these people again?"

"If a person takes the wrong path, he must know how to turn back..."

Shi Bao stood there and said the last words, decisive.

************************************************************

Xiaopinger walked out of the house and was silent for a moment.

Throwing a wrapped thing into Shi Bao's arms, she said, "There are some silver inside, enough for you to go north to Bianliang City and hand over a martial arts secret book to Bai Ning, the admiral of the East Factory."

"Why did I do such a precious thing?"

Xiaopinger had already walked outside at this time. She turned her face and stared at him: "Because you value love and loyalty, and you owe Bai Ning a life. If you give him the things, I believe he will help you whitewash your identity and give some funding, so that you can live a normal life in the future."

In the setting sun, a touch of bright red dissipates.

Shi Bao rubbed Feng Yi's messy hair, and the two hugged each other and said softly: "We went to pay back this love, then went away, find someone who knew us, find a kind place where men farmed and women weaved, and give birth to a bunch of children."

"Well, you are my man, I'll listen to you."

Feng Yi buried herself in the man's arms and said gently, the tenderness on her chest belonged only to hers.
