Chapter 10 The destruction of the family
Halfway.
"Xiaolian, did your parents really promise to accompany you to Dark Moon Village?"
"Well, I told them that I wanted to go out for a workout, and they agreed."
"Is it so simple?"
"As long as it is conducive to cultivation, my parents will agree."
"That's it! Well, since you're out, don't think too much. When you get to my house, I'll take you to watch the sunset. It's so beautiful.
"Really? Then I must go and have a look. Yes, Xiaomo, I don't usually go out. During this period, tell me what's interesting about you, and then take me there.
"Okay, you have done so much for me, and I will definitely satisfy you.
Then Xuanmo told Lianyue about Dark Moon Village, the flowers and plants of Dark Moon Village, trees and hillsides, the villagers of Dark Moon Village, Xuanmo's parents and so on.
In fact, after all, Dark Moon Village is a mountain village. What good places can there be? It's really because Xuanmo has fewer places to go and knows fewer places to know, so he told Lianyue all the places he played when he was a child.
And Lianyue has also been practicing hard since she was a child and has not been exposed to too many things. At this time, Lianyue is naturally curious and happy to hear Xuanmo's fresh things.
In this way, the two walked for nearly a day. When they were tired, they stopped to rest for a while. When they were hungry, they ate some dry food they brought. When they were thirsty, they drank some water they brought until dark.
Xuanmo said, "Xiaolian, it's almost dark. Let's find a place to set up a tent and leave tomorrow."
Lianyue nodded and looked at the empty land around him. The sky was getting darker and darker. He couldn't help but be afraid. After all, Lianyue is just a ten-year-old girl.
They found a big tree and set up a tent under it. Because Xuanmo thought he was going home alone, he only brought a tent. Lianyue didn't think of these things, so the two could only sleep in a tent.
After setting it up, Xuanmo said to Lianyue, "Xiaolian, go to bed first. I'll practice here for a while."
Lian Yue replied, "It's cold outside. Come in too!"
Without waiting for Xuanmo to speak, he only heard a wolf howling resounding on the empty land.
When Lian Yue heard the wolf's cry, she shouted "Ah" and subconsciously hugged Xuan Mo and buried her head in Xuan Mo's arms.
Xuan Mo only felt that his whole body was electrocuted. This was the first time that Xuan Mo hugged a girl so intimately. Even Linger has never been like this. At this time, Xuanmo smelled the unique smell of Lianyue, and then looked at her fear. Xuanmo slowly put his hand on her back and gently patted her on the shoulder, "It's okay to pull, don't be afraid! I'm here."
"Xiao Mo, shall we go back to the tent? I'm scared!" Lianyue grabbed Xuanmo's clothes vigorously and said with a few requests.
Hearing Lian Yue say this, Xuan Mo carefully helped her into the tent, and then he went in.
After entering, Lianyue sat on the left and Xuanmo sat on the right. The two looked at each other awkwardly for more than ten seconds.
Think about the two lonely men and women in the wilderness, and in the same tent, even if they are ten years old, they will inevitably have a strange atmosphere.
"Xiaolian, if you want to be afraid, go to bed. If you sleep, it's okay. I'll guard you." Xuanmo broke this quiet embarrassment.
Lian Yue whispered, "Xiao Mo, do you think these wolves will come to eat us?"
Xuan Mo smiled and said, "No, there is nothing here in the wilderness. They howled far away."
As soon as Xuanmo finished speaking, another wolf cry came from afar. Lianyue was so scared that she hurriedly got up and hugged Xuanmo and pleaded, "Xiao Mo, can you sleep well with me? I'm afraid!"
"Ah!" Xuanmo didn't expect Lianyue to make such a request. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Is this good? After all, there is a difference between men and women.
"But I'm really afraid, Xuanmo, don't you want to make your site cheap? Humph! If not, forget it. I don't care about it. Lianyue said anxiously.
"That's not what I mean." With that, Xuan Mo hugged Lian Yue tightly, lay down, and whispered in her ear, "Xiaolian, sleep, don't be afraid."
Lianyue looked at Xuanmo, closed her eyes shyly, and fell asleep sweetly.
However, Xuanmo didn't close his eyes all night. He held such a little beauty in his arms, coupled with the howling of wolves outside, and he was afraid of any danger. It was not until dawn that Xuanmo slept for a while.
The next day, after the two got up, they didn't say much about last night. They ate some dry food and began to travel again.
They walked for two more days. It was not until the third afternoon that they saw the village in the distance.
Xuanmo pointed to the village in front of him and said to Lianyue, "Xiaolian, we have finally arrived. Let's go. My house is in front."
After saying that, the excited Xuanmo pulled Lianyue forward. Because it was just a little past, most of the people in the village were taking a nap, and no one saw them. Xuanmo pulled Lianyue and turned several alleyways, and the smile on his face had not disappeared since he saw the village. "Xiaolian, after the corner in front of him, it's my home." Xuanmo said happily. Then he tightened Lianyue's hand and ran forward faster.
When they passed the last corner, Xuanmo's rapid footsteps stopped abruptly, and the luggage of his left hand fell to the ground in an instant, holding Lianyue's hand tightly, and suddenly released. The smile on his face disappeared without a trace, standing there, staring at the front.
There is no house where Xuanmo used to live in front of him, replaced by a piece of ruins, a piece of rubble burned by fire.
Xuan Mo quickly ran to the ruins and shouted, "Father, mother, where are you?" But the response around was silence.
Xuanmo looked at the ruins in front of him, and suddenly a ominous foreboding filled his heart.
Xuan Mo shouted a few times, but still did not respond. Xuan Mo's heart became heavier. Father, mother, is there something wrong with you? No, it's impossible." Thinking of this, the corners of Xuanmo's eyes overflowed with tears.
Lian Yue saw Xuanmo at this time and looked at the ruins in front of her, as if she understood something. He hurried forward to comfort him, "Xiaomo, don't think too much. Maybe your family accidentally caught fire. Your parents live in someone else's house."
"How can ordinary fire burn all the stone walls? Xiaolian, you and I both practice fire. You should know better than me." Xuan Mo said with choking.
