Return

Xu Changan hugged Fan Buxu's body, and the villagers came some and carried the uncle back.

That night, the villagers almost forgot that they were weak and helped Xiaoyuan and Xu Changan to cook Fan Bushu and Uncle.

There were even a few young and strong villagers who had not been absorbed too much blood and went to other villages overnight and invited famous witches to come over.

Everything was done according to the village rules, and Xu Changan did not intervene too much. The villagers knew that the Uncle's family did not save anything or silver. This family provided a table, and the other family gathered some food to save Uncle and Fan first.

The funeral was settled.

Xiao Yuan and Xu Changan did almost nothing, and the villagers did all these matters. Xiao Yuan did not cry anymore, but stayed in front of the coffin all day long. Xu Changan looked at the two coffins, sighed, and left

Go out.

Xiao Yuan had no food for a day, so Xu Changan walked over with a bowl of fish soup and stood at the door.

"Bad, the mangrove behind the house has grown up. When I was a child, I always asked my mother to go to a very far place. When the mangrove grows up, my mother will come back with a fishing boat. She will also bring her back with her.

There are a lot of pearls and shells.”

"When I was a child, my mother always liked to tell me stories about mermaids. So when my mother was sick, you fostered me at my grandmother's house. When I came back, I couldn't find my mother, so you told me that my mother was looking for mermaids.

.She will come back with a gift and give it to her favorite daughter."

Xiao Yuan sat alone in front of the coffin and murmured softly.

"But the mangrove has grown up, my mother hasn't come back, and you are not here either."

Hearing this, Xu Changan's heart trembled, his hand shook slightly, and almost sprinkled the fish soup.

Xiao Yuan turned her head. She seemed to hear the noise just now, so she turned to look out the door. Xu Changan walked out with the fish soup and handed it to Xiao Yuan.

"No matter what, let's drink some fish soup first!"

Xiao Yuan lowered his head and took the fish soup. Xu Changan looked at her and pursed his lips. He didn't know what to say, nor did he know how to comfort others, so he had to go out.

He knew that at this time, it would be best to give Xiaoyuan some space to be alone.

...

A few days later, according to the rules, the villagers buried the uncle. Because Xu Chang'an saved them, Fan became neighbors with the uncle if he didn't save him.

Xiaoyuan said better than the previous few days, but when Xu Changan didn't pay attention, she would stay under the mangrove behind the house.

Xu Changan didn't bother her, but just found a pot of wine and took Xiaobai to look at her from a distance.

Xiaobai lay on the ground, looked at Xiaoyuan with guilt in his eyes, and shouted softly at Xu Changan.

Xu Changan smiled at Xiaobai and touched its head.

"You don't have to blame yourself. I sent you to see those disciples of Aotian Sect."

In fact, Xiao Yuan treats Xiao Bai very well on weekdays, but at that time, Xiao Bai always pretended to be aloof and ignored Xiao Yuan very much.

It thought about it and walked to Xiao Yuan and rubbed her with its little head.

Xiao Yuan touched it and continued to sit at the foot of the tree, dazed. Xiaobai had no choice but to finally lay at Xiao Yuan's feet.

In the following days, one person sat under the tree and a cat lies at his feet. There was an alcoholic who liked to drink rice wine in the distance.

...

The plum rain has passed, the sea breeze has brought joy, and the people in the village have gradually recovered their health.

Xu Changan stood by the beach with his hands on his back and squinted his eyes. Although there were blue sky and white clouds in front of him, his mood was not here.

"Brother Xu, are you going to leave?"

Xiao Yuan came over. Compared to before, she had lost weight and was not as shy as before.

These days, Xu Changan helped her bury her father, and even Zu Yinghua's body was restrained and a simple inscription was erected. As for the ashes of Zu Yinghua's parents, Xu Changan also found them.

Although Uncle kept saying that he was not a good person, but a bastard. In order to prevent his nephew from doing evil, this "bastard" hid the ashes of his sister-in-law and her husband before burning the house.

At the address of Zu Yinghua's old house, the villagers erected a monument for Zu Yinghua's parents.

These two were pretty good to the villagers when they were alive, but their son...

However, with Xu Chang'an's persuasion, the villagers would occasionally put a stick of incense on the two old men, and help repair grass when passing by.

All of this slowly got on track, and Xu Changan began to inquire about the route to land.

After all, Xu Changan saved them and knew that Xu Changan wanted to go to the mainland. These villagers who didn't know a few words walked all over the archipelago and visited the villagers who had been on the land, and they actually put together a sea of ​​people.

picture.

Some villagers have been there, but they all follow the big ship passing by, looking at the twists and turns, like graffiti from the hands of a child.

Xu Changan looked at this "natural chart" and was a little amused and crying.

"If you find the opportunity, leave, otherwise, I am afraid that I will not see the blue sky, white clouds and a few smoke here in the future." Xu Changan smiled bitterly. It was dinner time.

"Brother Xu..."

"I have to leave. If no one finds me, I will naturally be willing to stay here for the rest of my life."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan lowered his head and his face became hot.

"But someone discovered me, I'm afraid it will drag you down."

"Is it a vicious person who is looking for Brother Xu?"

Xu Changan shook his head.

"They are not good people, but they are not evil people."

Looking at Xiao Yuan's confusing expression, Xu Changan patted Xiao Yuan's shoulder.

"There is no such absolute in the world. In addition to black and white, there are other colors; in addition to good and evil, there are other boundaries. However, we have no words to describe it yet."

When Xiao Yuan heard this, he nodded in a vague way.

Although she couldn't understand that sentence, she knew that the person was leaving.

...

Xiaoyuan walked to the foot of the mangrove, picked up Xiaobai, and sat on the ground.

"Xiaobai, my mother is gone, my dad is gone, and now you and Brother Xu are leaving. Here, there are only me and this big mangrove."

Xiaobai screamed at her and rubbed her.

...

The storm came very hard, this night.

A gust of wind blew and the door was blown open. Xu Changan walked out, closed the door and prepared to go back to sleep, but saw something on the table.

Xu Changan looked at the thing, and then he felt a little confused.

It was a piece of animal skin with nearby sea charts drawn on it, and even a route to Fengwu Town was marked.

No matter who sends the chart, Xu Changan has to give it a try.

...

In a small boat, Xiaobai sat on Xu Changan's shoulder.

The villagers had already left. They bid farewell to Xu Chang'an, but they did not see Xiao Yuan.

One person and one cat waited by the beach for a while and finally set off.

Xiao Yuan knew that Xu Changan was leaving, but she couldn't bear to leave, but this was her home and her root. Xu Changan didn't say a word, what qualifications and reasons did she have to leave with him?

She watched the villagers go to the beach and watch them come back, feeling very uncomfortable.

Her father entrusted him with him, but he didn't say a word. Even if it was just a word, she went there.

She wanted to stay under the big mangrove, but as soon as she went out, she saw something beside the door.

She knew that it was Brother Xu's long sword. If it was on the island, it would be fine, but if you went to those places without weapons, then what if you did not have any weapons?

How can it work?

Xiao Yuan gritted his teeth, finally picked up the sword and ran quickly to the beach.

When she arrived at the beach, there was no one left, and even the boat disappeared.

She lowered her head, feeling indescribable. She seemed to have been abandoned by the world. She looked at the sword and the sea breeze squirted her temples.

"Look at you, no one wants you like me!"

As he said that, he could only hold the sword, lower his head, and walk towards home.

"Meow~" A cat moan came from behind.

Xiao Yuan turned around and saw that the boy was carrying a bag and a white kitten sat on his shoulder.

"Xu...Xu..." Xiao Yuan was a little surprised and stuttered when he saw Xu Changan.

Xu Changan pointed to the sword that Xiao Yuan was holding. Xiao Yuan's face changed from joy to disappointment, but she still smiled, calmed down and handed the sword over.

Seeing Xu Changan's back with the sword disappearing from sight, she lowered her head and walked towards home in a depressed mood.
