Back Off, Let Me Come

"You, don't come over—"

The little girl was so frightened that she came back to her senses. She held a gold hairpin that was not threatening at the two of them with trembling hands. She probably realized this as she turned the hairpin and put it against her chin. The top of the gold hairpin has been polished, leaving only a little red mark deep into the skin.

It doesn't work whether it's used to threaten people or commit suicide.

Shen Tang: "I won't go over, you come out."

The little girl turned pale and shook her head: "No!"

Eyes full of fear suddenly rolled down with crystal tears.

She blinked, trying to clear her tear-filled vision again, but the tears rolled down more densely. The beads rolled from the round and milky cheeks to the chin, and then they gathered and dripped down. I have to admit that it is really heartwarming for a beautiful woman to cry.

Zhai Le stood aside and laughed: "Brother Shen, you are disliked."

A girl in distress needs gentle comfort.

Speaking harshly will only scare people.

Shen Tang tilted his head and thought for a moment, then took action at lightning speed, grabbing the little girl by the collar and lifting her out of the box. The little girl had a stubborn temper. Even though she was extremely frightened, she still refused to give up her struggle. Her fingers were trembling as she grasped the golden hairpin.

Zhai Le came closer, the smile in her peach blossom eyes spread like ripples: "Hello, my lady, I and Brother Shen are both good people."

The little girl endured the chattering of her teeth!

She didn't believe this nonsense.

Zhai Le asked again: "The girl's surname is Lin?"

The little girl shrank back, her eyes inadvertently swept across the corpses lying on the ground, and her round eyes widened in shock. She didn't even care that Shen and Tang were still there. She grabbed the golden hairpin and almost staggered to get closer.

Staring straight at the warm and soft corpse.

There was something called "hatred" in the eyes that should have been pure. Regardless of the dirty blood, he wiped off the bruises on the corpse's face with his bare hands and wiped it with his sleeve for easy identification. After confirming that it was correct, he quickly inserted the gold hairpin into the corpse's eye socket.

Zhai Le gasped and raised his hands to cover his eyes.

Relying on the burning hatred, hundreds of times in a row, the two eye sockets of the corpse were smashed into pieces by gold hairpins, and the eyeballs were smashed into blood foam, and she sat back as if she was exhausted.

Two gangsters waiting to move the body: "..."

Almost jumping up and hugging each other, shivering.

After a long time, the little girl came back to her senses.

She gritted her back molars, suppressing the fear that had dug a bottomless pit in her heart. She stood up, straightened her clothes and sleeves, and coldly looked at her round, oval face - which was obviously childish, but deliberately squeezed out some maturity and stability - He took two steps forward, crossed his hands towards Shen Tang, and said two blessings deeply.

"Thank you benefactor for avenging the twenty-four members of my Lin family."

Zhai Le on one side raised his eyebrows.

He clapped his hands and smiled: "Young lady is so brave."

The little girl's already pale face became increasingly pale.

Shen Tang raised his foot to kick Zhai Le.

"Why are you so scary when you have nothing to do?"

Zhai Le jumped away: "How can I scare you? It's clearly a compliment."

Although I don't know the inside story, I can guess two or three things. An eight or nine-year-old child watched his relatives being slaughtered by the guards at home and dumped their bodies in the mountains. He was lucky enough to survive and met a group of people who didn't know good and evil. How could he do this? The level is really not easy.

At the very least, courage is commendable.

Shen Tang kicked back the lid of the wooden box and used it as a stool.

"Who are you? What happened before? Are there other relatives? Why are you hiding in the wooden box?"

Zhai Le reminded: "Ask politely."

Shen Tang glanced at him. For a moment, he had the illusion of being stared at by his brother Zhai Huan, and subconsciously chose to turn off the microphone and keep silent.

Zhai Le: "..."

No, he is obviously the "brother"!

Seeing that Shen Tang was not malicious for the time being, the little girl relaxed her tense nerves a little, grabbed the golden hairpin, and her nails almost dug into the palm of her hand, forcing herself to answer: "The little girl's surname is Lin, her ancestral home is Lingzhou. She is the same as Chongci and Jiaci. , my concubine, my brother-in-law, my brothers and sisters, as well as a group of maids and women, went south to visit my relatives. Unexpectedly, the servants on the way became thief, and they killed people and took wealth..."

Including her, there were twenty-five people in total.

"So many female relatives are walking outside, and only one man is following you? This is really..." Zhai Le frowned when he heard this. The world is so chaotic, and we must guard against foreign enemies as well as internal thieves. He only sent an elder "brother-in-law" to escort him, plus an unknown age. "Brother" is too big-hearted.

The little girl bit her lower lip, lowered her head, and her eyes were red.

Who would have thought that a guard who had been using it for seven or eight years would suddenly turn against him? The leader of the guard is also highly trusted and has saved the family owner's life.

"...because she was naughty and played with her sisters, she hid in a wooden box and escaped." She often quarreled with her sisters at home, and occasionally hid in wooden boxes to avoid being found. The elders were worried and opened her two wooden boxes. It has dark holes for easy ventilation. When she woke up from the wooden box, she was still wondering why no one had found her.

She used the hole to secretly peek out, and saw the servant raising a butcher knife towards her relatives. The old, weak, women and children were unable to fight back, and all of them, including the seriously injured uncle, were killed.

The only thing she could do was cover her mouth and swallow her cries.

But she knew she would be caught.

More and more desperate.

Who knew it would take a turn.

"Everyone else has already...only the little girl is alive...wuwu..." She wiped away her tears and sniffed hard to prevent her nose from dripping down and staining her nose with crimson.

He pursed his lips again and tried to swallow the emotion back, but the more he held it in, the more sour it became. Finally, he couldn't help it anymore, and his tears broke down, like broken pearls falling one after another. It was so pitiful.

Shen Tang lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.

"Besides the relative who is going south to seek refuge, do you have any other relatives that you can seek refuge with? It's best to be closer..."

The little girl stood there and shook her head, looking confused. She really didn't know what to do now. She had no one to rely on.

Zhai Le sighed: "It's so pitiful, why don't we just accept it too."

Shen Tang wanted to poke a few holes in him with his sword.

"What to charge? How old is she?"

Zhai Le: "...???"

He jumped up and down, his voice rising seven or eight degrees: "I'm telling you to keep her by your side as a maid. It's a way to survive anyway. If you have the opportunity to look for relatives again in the future, Brother Shen, where have you been thinking of? ? Did you think it was the 'receiver'?"

Shen Tang: "..."

She couldn't help but cover her face.

Well, her mind is unhealthy.

Shen Tang adjusted his mood and coughed lightly to relieve the embarrassment.

"You heard that, right? Do you want to go home with me first? When the situation stabilizes, then contact your other family members or go south to find relatives? You are too young to survive alone."

The little girl lowered her head and thought for a long, long time.

He nodded vigorously with tears on his face.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

However, he still wanted to speak but stopped, as if he was in a dilemma.

Shen Tang guessed what she wanted to say and said, "Wait until daybreak! It's too late at night to search in the dark. Just pray that those wild beasts haven't gone crazy with hunger, or you can leave intact corpses."

In this era, children as young as eight or nine can be treated as adults. When their loved ones die tragically, they also know how to collect the bones and bury them in peace.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

The little girl bowed deeply again, extremely grateful.

Then he said: "My nickname is A'nan."

"You didn't get a name?"

The little girl said nothing.

Shen Tang: "Then I arbitrarily choose one? It's not convenient to call you by a nickname. If your surname is Lin, you might as well name it 'Feng', Lin Feng."

Zhai Le: "Lin Feng? This is too manly."

Shen Tang rolled his eyes.

"Do you know what 'wind in the forest' means?"

The wind under the forest: refers to a strange woman who is capable, talented, poetic, graceful, and unrivaled as a woman.

I bought a set of Shishuoxinyu. I was rummaging through it a while ago and found it quite interesting.

(But the content is really hard to remember. Anyway, I didn’t remember any of it. I felt sleepy after reading through it. It’s a hypnotic tool).

By coincidence, I turned to the Xian Yuan chapter in the second volume, and found the sentence in it: "Mrs. Wang's expression is relaxed, so she has the atmosphere of the forest; the housewife Gu has a pure heart, and she is the beauty of the boudoir." So I thought it would be a good choice to name her Lin Feng (although I heard It’s really masculine).

As for the character, I originally wanted to choose "Lingxian". It makes people look forward to hearing it; a wise man has many talents. However, I found that it was weird that they were connected together, and I immediately thought about it before I remembered (I am about to run away for my third year, and my memory is much worse than before). Lingxian is a respectful address to other people's wives (such as Lingci, Lingtang, and respectfully addressing other people's mothers and fathers). ), hesitating whether to change it.
