Legend of Dream God in a Little Dream

The three men arrived at the scene first. The man on the ground was covering his legs and looking at the three people coming. "Please don't kill me. I can give you all the valuables." After saying that, he took out the jewelry in the bag.

Zeng Jun stood in front of him and said, "Even if you die, these can still be taken away. Besides, it wasn't us who injured you."

Zengjun pointed at the man who appeared in the distance and said, "He hurt you, you can ask him. The three of us are just passing by."

The man came over and said to Zeng Jun, "If you are not a bad person, you can leave safely."

Zengjun pointed at the man who was covering his legs and said, "What are you going to do with him?"

"Ask a few questions, see how valuable the information is, and then decide whether to kill or release."

The man on the ground begged for mercy. "I'll tell you everything I know."

"Are you a subordinate of the new guy who came a few days ago?"

"Yes"

"What is his purpose?"

"My lord, he said he felt the person who killed his mother seven years ago was in this city."

"How old is he?"

"22"

After hearing this, Zeng Jun knew that the man in front of him was the creditor, otherwise why would he ask these questions, or in other words, he was carrying the accusation of someone.

As soon as he asked the question, the man pulled the arrow out of the leg of the man on the ground.

"Go back," and he lifted him onto a horse, and the man rode away.

After searching the bag of the man who had been shot, the man searched the bag of the groom and found a letter in his inner pocket.

He walked towards Zengjun and the other two with the letter in his hand, "Since you are destined to meet me, what is the matter with you passing by here?"

Zengjun thought for a moment and said, "I am just an ordinary person passing by, passing by here just to enjoy the scenery."

The man introduced himself, "My name is Ke'en, I'm 30 years old."

"Zengjun, I'm 20 this year. These are my two sisters, Bu Xuefang, 18, and Mo Wanfang, 19. They both accompanied me to see the scenery."

"But you don't look like 20, more like 18"

Zengjun smiled and said, "Haha, I look young. Others think I'm only 18 or 19. What did the letter say?"

Ke En opened the envelope and read it for a while. “It’s just an ordinary letter of surrender.”

"By the way, if you let him go, aren't you afraid that he will tell on you?" Zeng Jun asked

Ke En put away the envelope and said, "So, next, I was just about to ask you to leave."

“Uh, we’re lost.”

"Didn't you say you came here to see the scenery?"

"Well, it's a subtle way of saying that we are lost and haven't even found a place to stay, so can the three of us follow you for a short while to temporarily solve the problem of food and clothing?"

Ke En thought about it. He just got the jewelry and could support four people. More people means more company. "If you are not afraid that I will get you into trouble, I don't mind."

"Uh-huh"

The three then followed Ken to his residence.

The house where he lived was not particularly far from the road, and Zeng Jun had even seen it when he was observing.

"By the way, what happened seven years ago?"

"It's not convenient to explain here. I will explain it to you slowly when we get home."

The house in the distance gradually appeared.

As they got closer, a two-story house appeared in front of the four people.

"Let's go inside, it's not safe outside"

The three of them followed Ke'en into the first floor of the room, and Ke'en took out a few stools for Zengjun to sit on for three people.

"Do you really want to know what happened seven years ago? You might be scared of me if I tell you. Do you really want to know?"

Zeng Jun sat down, "You must have said those words countless times in your mind, and those past events must have kept appearing in your memory, right? Otherwise, what made you unwilling to leave after being discovered?"

Ke En also sat up. "You guessed right. There is indeed something that locked me here. Seven years ago in the winter, I broke into a family's house to steal food. There were only two people in the house, a child about 7 years old and a woman, who should be his mother. When I broke into the house, the woman was holding a small bag of rice in her hand. I guess it was food for tonight."

Ke En covered his hair with his hands. "I went in and saw the food. I asked the woman to give it to me, but she refused to give it to me. So I started to snatch it from her. The woman resisted so fiercely that I killed her with a knife before I could get the food from her."

"So, what about the child?"

"I just wanted to steal the food, not kill anyone. I really didn't want that woman to die. I left quickly after stealing the food."

"You stole their food. The child wouldn't survive that night, right? Besides, it's winter."

"I just want to live. I can't die yet. I still have someone to wait for, someone to wait for me and her."

"Let's not talk about the person you are waiting for, what about later? That child"

"Later, I heard that a warrior passed by the next day and took him in out of pity. As for how he survived that night, with your thinking, I'm sure you already know it even if I don't tell you."

"Yeah, so that's how it is. Then what about the person you are waiting for? Also, what about the tombstone in the yard?"

Ken stood up and said, "Follow me."

Zengjun followed behind Keen, while Bushue and Mo Wan followed Zengjun to witness the truth.

Arriving on the second floor, Ken opened the door. It was a room dominated by pink.

Ken took off his shoes and entered the room, and the other three followed Ken's example and took off their shoes as well.

Zengjun asked, "Is this? A girl's room?"

"Yes, there is another thing I haven't told you. Nine years ago, three hours after my daughter was born, heavenly soldiers suddenly appeared in the sky and robbed my daughter. I went to the town to buy supplements for my wife at that time. When I came back with the supplements, the scene was a mess. There was only the midwife standing there at a loss and my wife was dying. I knelt down beside her, and she said tremblingly, "My daughter, my daughter was taken away by heavenly soldiers." After that, she died. I turned around and asked the midwife, and her answer was also that heavenly soldiers took away my daughter."

"Then what"

"Then I buried my wife in the yard, and together with her I waited for the day when our daughter would return. She was already nine years old, and I wondered if she was naughty or not."

When Zengjun heard this, he thought, "Nine years old? I am also nine years old this year. As far as I can remember, I have always been with a bunch of kids my age. Could it be that I am also a child who was snatched away?"

Zengjun opened the wardrobe, which was full of clothes.

Ke En looked at the clothes in the closet and said, "These are all clothes I made myself according to my daughter's current age."

"Can you show me one?"

After listening to this, Ke'en took a chair from the side, put it under his feet, stood on the chair, raised his feet, took out the highest item, and handed it to Zengjun to look at.

When Zengjun unfolded the dress, he found it was a skirt, about the size for a nine-year-old child.

Ke En got down from her seat with another dress in her hand. "This one was bought in town a few days ago. I thought she would like a beautiful dress since she is already nine years old, but I can't knit, so I had to buy it."

Ke'en also handed the clothes in his hand to Zengjun. Zengjun took the clothes and then returned the skirt to Ke'en.

Spreading out the clothes, it was a piece of woolen clothes, with a little white bear on the criss-crossing wool.
