Wife is an enemy general

001.

Night is a clear night.

It is rare that there is almost no cloud in the sky, only the bright moon sky and a little bit of stars are left.

This season is already autumn. Although the daytime is still very hot, the night is already somewhat cool in autumn.

A few nights ago, there was a thin layer of clouds floating in the sky, it looked like it was going to rain, but today the sky is extraordinarily clean.

The hazy silver-gray moonlight shone on the roof of the hut, making the hut behind them extraordinarily clear under the night.

Zhong Xiuyuan carefully opened the birthday gift he got, looked at it, and then closed the box carefully.

In the past two days, in order to prepare for today's event, he has been by Li Mu's side all the time. He never saw when Li Mu started to make this thing, and he didn't know when this person was preparing...

Zhong Xiuyuan doesn't like too sweet food, it's not that he doesn't eat it, but if he eats too much of this kind of food, he always feels tired.

The food box that Li Mu gave him was filled with walnut crisps, and the small ones were placed next to each other in the food box, looking extraordinarily cute.

Zhong Xiuyuan has eaten walnut crisps before. It tastes glutinous and soft, with a bit of sweetness. The delicate fragrance of peach kernels is addictive.

He didn't like to eat these things at first, but now holding the small food box, he felt that the faint fragrance of peach kernels made him unable to give up.

What's more, Li Mu probably poured a catty of sugar into this walnut crisp, and he felt that it was too sweet just by smelling it.

"Just one piece." Li Mu turned his head sideways, staring straight at the food box in his hand.

"Not even half a piece!" Zhong Xiuyuan carefully put away the box, turned around and walked into the house.

If it is something else in normal times, this person will definitely give it to him without even thinking about it.But this is the only thing he doesn't want to give at all.

Besides, how can you help eat half of the birthday gift you gave someone?gluttony!

Li Mu looked at the back of Zhong Xiuyuan who left, and after standing there for a while, he went back to the room in desperation, ready to rest.

A good night's sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, not long after Tiantian was bright, Qianqianqian was clamoring in the yard to go to the mountain to play again.

Yesterday, a group of people went to play in the mountains. They didn't choose the right time to go. The weather was too hot. They had to turn back after walking for a long time.

Master Qin and Ma Yi were both very tired and lost their interest, but money and money hadn't been given up yet, and they still wanted to go for a walk in the mountains to see if they could pick up the walnuts Li Mu had picked up before and those Chestnut, wild fruit.

Qian Qianqian asked around in the yard, and after learning that Master Qin, Ma Yi, and the others were not planning to go, he looked at Li Mu.

After a tiring day yesterday, Li Mu didn't plan to go up the mountain to play with the child again today, his eyes turned around in the yard and then landed on Yoon'er beside him.

Yuner is only scheduled to play for a few days when he comes back this time, and he will go back in two or three days. Before it is hot in the morning, Li Mu is going to let him play in the mountains.

"You go too!" Zhong Xiuyuan looked at Zhong Manlu.

Yun'er has been playing in this mountain for a long time, and she is very familiar with the two nearby mountains. Even if he goes alone, it won't be a big problem, but if he wants to pick wild fruits, Zhongman Road is still the best choice. They know better than them where there is something to pick up.

After getting the order, Zhong Manlu found a sickle and took it with him, leading Yun'er and Qian Qianqian towards the mountain while arguing.

After some noisy Qianqian left, Master Qin came up, "I have something to tell you."

It was still early at this time, and the fog in the mountain had not had time to completely dissipate. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking around, the mountains and forests in the distance were covered with white mist, like a fairyland.

Master Qin deliberately chose Li Mu to come to see him when Ma Yi was away, which surprised Li Mu slightly.

He led Master Qin down the mountain, and the two went to the duck cage.

On the way, after separating from the others, Master Qin said: "The matter you asked me to inquire about for you earlier has come to fruition."

"Inquiry?" Li Mu asked first, and then came back to his senses. What Master Qin said was that he asked him to help inquire about the family surnamed Qi, "Have you found anyone?"

Master Qin shook his head, he looked into the distance, and his steps slowed down.

"I searched all the way according to the previous direction, and later found out that after the family fled there, the parents left one after another, leaving only the youngest son." Master Qin smiled bitterly, "The child was still young at that time, only ten years old. She looked like she was in her early next year, but she was later said to have been adopted by a family."

Li Mu didn't speak, just stood by and listened quietly.

"At that time, the news stopped here. Later, I focused on investigating the group of children who were adopted back then. I found several, but the only one who met the requirements was only one." Master Qin seemed hesitant.

Li Mu looked back at him, with some questioning in his dark eyes.

Seeing Li Mu like this, Master Qin took a deep breath, and then continued, "That family has already moved away. No one knows where they went. The only thing we know is that family's surname is Ma?"

"Horse?" Li Mu was surprised.

"Because it happened several years ago, and the situation at that time was very chaotic. During that period of time, there were a lot of people who moved out and people who moved in, and there are only so many people who can find out." Master Qin road.

In such an environment, getting rich overnight and then falling overnight is all too common.

Some people move away, and they may become wealthy businessmen, and some people move away, and they may die on the way.The specific whereabouts, I am afraid that only they themselves know.

After Li Mu was surprised, he was a little puzzled. If it was just like this, why did Master Qin seem hesitant to speak?

"Is there something wrong?" Li Mu asked.

The surname Ma is not uncommon. The moment Master Qin mentioned this surname, Li Mu thought of a certain person, but he didn't think it would be such a coincidence.

If Ma Yi was the person he was looking for, why did he keep silent and pretend he didn't know about it?

"I don't know how to say it, and I don't have any evidence." Master Qin knew at a glance that Li Mu had already guessed something. Li Mu was not stupid, but very smart.

At that time, he sent people to inquire about this matter, and it took a lot of effort, but there was really not much information that could be inquired about. It was all hearsay and bits and pieces.

After finding out that family's surname was Ma, Master Qin inquired about all the people with the surname Ma in Anfu at that time, but this surname is very common, so it's not easy to check all of them.

It made him suspicious because he found out that the house that Ma Yi bought, the family's last name was also Ma.

But how to say this thing, he has no evidence, and it is impossible to grab Ma Yi by the collar and ask him if he was adopted by others, ask if his father is his own father, and ask him if his surname was not Ma before.

Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, Master Qin thought about it, and then told another thing he had heard.

"When you asked me to help you find out before, I checked the camp you were in first." Master Qin said.

After a few months, he also found out some things, but most of them were useless.

"About two years ago, someone also inquired about the news, and it was the team you were in." Master Qin said.

After the war stopped, many people searched everywhere to find people. It can be said that they caught a lot. Even now, there are still many people who are persistent and still want to find the person they are looking for.

Among them, the most people went to the barracks to find people.

Even Li Mu had many people come here, asking about the situation of other people who were captured in the towns and villages near him.Even some people from places he had never even heard the name came to him with a fluke mentality and asked him,

Li Mu, who knew the situation, tried to say as much as possible, but he didn't remember most of the names at all.

Because at that time they were captured and recruited together, but they were not necessarily assigned to the same place. Some were assigned to the south, and some were assigned to the north. When they were scattered, there was half a distance between them.

"Then do you know who that person is investigating?" Li Mu asked.

If it was two years ago, it was a long time ago.

Master Qin shook his head, he didn't have that much ability, he was able to find out the inside of the barracks only because he had done business with people in the barracks.

"However, I think no matter who he is looking for, he should have found the news he wants." Master Qin said.

The reason is very simple, because in Li Mu's small team, even in their big team, among the hundred or so people, only Li Mu survived and came back alive.

Li Mu opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

After being silent for a while, Master Qin patted Li Mu on the shoulder, "You also want to drive some, it's been so many years, maybe his family has already given up."

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and then murmured "Really".

Standing on the forest path halfway up the mountain, Li Mu raised his eyes and looked around. After several years, he was very familiar with the nearby mountains, even if he closed his eyes, he would not get lost in these mountains.

In a few years, many things can indeed be changed.

If Qi Xin's family really wanted to find him, they would have already done so over the years.

Maybe they have already found out the news about Qi Xin by their own ability, or maybe they really gave up just like Master Qin said.

Hearing the news, Li Mu couldn't say whether he was happy or disappointed.It's just that standing in the forest that still has a bit of mist, he feels like a dream.

He seemed to have returned to the time when he was still in the camp, with horses neighing war drums and pools of blood in the setting sun.

Master Qin patted Li Mu's shoulder again, and went up the mountain without saying a word, leaving Li Mu standing alone in the forest.

When Li Mu was going up the mountain, Qian Qianqian was standing in the yard talking happily.

Seeing Li Mu came back, he quickly pulled Li Mu over again, and then repeated the interesting things he just said from beginning to end.

Boss Shi had an accident.

Yesterday afternoon, Boss Shi was suddenly called down the mountain in a hurry. Everyone thought that something happened to him in the business field and needed him to deal with it urgently. As a result, someone sent a message from Qianqian today, saying that Boss Shi's house was ransacked up.

Specifically, it is said that a batch of goods smuggled back from the outside was found before, and the quantity of that batch of goods was not small, and it happened to be hit by it and the arrest was very strict at the moment, so he was regarded as a prostitute. bird.

Boss Shi's side was seized and his house ransacked. After careful inspection, it was found that his accounts were very problematic. He was not only smuggling goods, but also evading taxes.

Moreover, not only Boss Shi himself suffered disaster, but also those people around him who were closer to him, and his family also suffered disaster.

Those individuals were doing things with Boss Shi, and the scripts were not necessarily clean. After Boss Shi's side was taken over, the government officials followed this line and led out a large group of people.

At this moment, there was a mess over there.

002.

"I just said that my own accounts are obviously done so carefully, how could something happen!" After talking about the situation at Boss Shi's side, Qian Qianqian cursed with his hands on his hips.

Before, he went back to deal with the matter in a hurry. At that time, because the situation was urgent, there was no time to investigate carefully. He only wanted to find a way to fish out the goods, otherwise the Jin family would be in bad luck when they tracked down.

Afterwards, Boss Shi took over the matter and said that he checked it for him. At that time, Qianqian thought it was a little strange. Looking at it now, he immediately understood the reason.

Hearing the news about Qianqian, Ma Yi was also a little displeased.

For this matter, he also ran.

After confirming that Ma Yi's place was really not tax evasion, he took the initiative to help fish out the goods, but unexpectedly, he ended up helping Boss Shi and the others.

What he hates the most on weekdays is such a situation of smuggling and tax evasion, but now he finds out that he has actually helped, and he is immediately disgusted.

"It was reported by someone, but I don't know exactly who reported it. Anyway, that litter was taken away." Qian Qianqian gloated.

He didn't like Boss Shi very much at first. Boss Shi had nothing to do with their family, but he always liked to call his father brother and brother, and he also liked to talk to him as an elder.

Forget about these, his hands and feet are not very clean, and he always likes to do things like hoarding goods and raising prices.

If it wasn't for his father telling him to restrain himself and not to be too fussy, he would have already fallen out with this Shi.

Something happened to Boss Shi, so he immediately sent a message to Qian Qian.

"Why did he ask you for something?" Ma Yi was not very happy, "Don't get confused with him, otherwise no one will be able to save you if you get involved."

Money and money don't bother to mix it in, "But it's quite pitiful. The first emperor investigated this matter strictly. I guess his family will also be unlucky after this."

If it was just a normal situation, Qian Qianqian wouldn't mind selling favors to get his unrelated family members out, but this time there was a lot of noise, and even their Jin family might not be able to get them out.

Boss Shi alone has achieved the Tao and the whole family's chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven. If you want to say how innocent his family is, I'm afraid it's not the whole story.

At least the money he evaded taxes must have been spent on his own people, but it is certain that those people will not die.

But Chaozhong was going to make an example of others, and he ran into it himself, so who can be blamed?

"If you do your own crimes, you can't live." Ma Yi shook his head, and did not forget to cast a warning glance at Qianqian.

The latter smiled smugly, but he was not guilty.

Hearing what everyone was saying, Li Mu turned his head and glanced at Yun'er who was sitting next to him carrying corn.

In this season, the corn in the mountains is just ripe, so when Li Mu went up the mountain, he brought a few new corn to prepare for cooking sweet and glutinous glutinous rice.

The corn grown by farmers is the most fragrant and glutinous. Add some water and sugar, and boil it directly, and it will be delicious.

The corn is cooked, put a chopstick into it, and eat it while it is hot. The sweet glutinous glutinous grains are more delicious than any delicacies from mountains and seas.

Yun'er didn't seem to hear the words of the people next to him. He was squatting on the ground seriously, holding a corn that was bigger than his own hand. After tearing off the wrapping carefully, he cleaned the whiskers of the corn one by one. .

Everyone's minds were immersed in the recent events at Boss Shi's house, but there was one person who wasn't. Needless to say, this person was the young apprentice next to Mr. Zheng.

Originally, he and Mr. Zheng were going to leave today, but after finding out that Yun'er was here, the two of them immediately changed their schedule.

That young apprentice stayed up all night last night, thinking about Yun'er all night.

He was already uneasy because of the previous offense, but now he heard the news from Boss Shi, and his legs suddenly went limp.

Old Zheng saw the person standing beside him, his face was pale and his body was trembling slightly, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, he turned his head and gave him a cold look.

This person is the earliest among all his disciples, and he is also the one with the highest talent. He didn't realize it when he was in the palace before, but after he took him out to do business this time, he realized that this person's character is really bad.

Arrogant and domineering, extremely vain, self-righteous, he mentioned it several times along the way, but this person couldn't remember it at all, and if he said it, he would forget it after two days.

Before this person accepted a bribe from Boss Shi, and wanted to influence his choice of tribute, Mr. Zheng could tell at a glance.

It's just because this person is an apprentice brought out by himself, and he has been by his side for several years, and he is considered respectful to him, so he doesn't want to really trap him in injustice, so he keeps pretending to be ignorant.

"master……"

Seeing Yun'er and the others go to the kitchen to cook corn, the young man looked at his master with limp legs, and cast a look for help.

Elder Zheng stood up, he gave this person a cold look, turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

"Master, please help me..." The young man quickly stepped forward and grabbed Elder Zheng's sleeve.

He was really scared to death. He didn't sleep last night, and he was so frightened that he couldn't even eat.

As Lin Yun, if he wanted him to die, he only needed to hook his fingers.

And he was very disrespectful before, if Lin Yun got angry with him and wanted to kill him like Boss Shi, he didn't even have a place to cry.

Hearing the man's crying words, Mr. Zheng stopped, and he looked back at the man who was already kneeling on the ground. For a moment, he felt a little sore in his heart.

This person has been by his side for almost ten years. In ten years, even raising a dog has feelings, not to mention that this person has been learning how to cook by his side.

But, this time, he was really helpless.

Who let this person offend Lin Yun, the current emperor, he is just a head chef, could it be that Lin Yun would still listen to what he said?

Now that he can't protect himself, how can he talk about protecting others?

"Don't be too arrogant to be a human being, leave a bit of leeway in everything." Elder Zheng left only this sentence, then pulled out his sleeves vigorously, and walked towards the kitchen.

The young man wanted to say something, at this moment Elder Zheng had already entered the kitchen, he just looked at him with pale lips, he definitely didn't dare to make too much noise to disturb Lin Yun who was washing rice in the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Li Mu was standing behind Yun'er, rolled up his sleeves, and was teaching Yun'er to wash the corn.

After washing all the corn, Li Mu put the corn in the pot, and then added a large spoonful of sugar, "It's ready to eat when it's cooked."

Yun'er leaned against the stove, stretched her neck to look around.

Over the past few years, he has tasted everything, and what he eats is the best in the world.

But how should I put it, maybe it's fun, maybe it's fresh, maybe it's because the corn she peeled out by herself is meaningful, Yun'er is swallowing her saliva like a greedy cat.

Seeing Yun'er like this, Qianqian beside him couldn't help but swallowed, looking forward to it.

A few people stood in the middle of the kitchen, accompanied by Zhong Xiuyuan who was sitting in front of the hall with a fire burning the corn, and listened to Mr. Zheng talking about the different ways to eat the corn.

After the young apprentice knelt outside the door for a long time, he staggered to his feet, walked into the kitchen nervously, and stood at the door.

There was no way to ask his master, so he wanted to ask Li Mu, but after entering the kitchen, before he could find Li Mu, he met Yun'er's cold eyes.

Yun'er was put beside Li Mu, at his age, Li Mu's hand was just on his shoulder, neither high nor low.

Li Mu's energy is now concentrated on Mr. Zheng, wishing he could take notes of the various ways of eating that Mr. Zheng said.Yun'er stood there obediently, letting Li Mu lean on him.

It's just that this scene is so warm no matter how you look at it, because of Yun'er's eyes that have no warmth at all, it makes the hands and feet of the people standing at the door cold.

Speaking of this mountain, there is actually nothing interesting, there are no fresh markets to shop, and there are no delicious snacks.

But it's also quite interesting for people to gather together to talk and cook a bun.

Half an hour later, the corn was cooked. As soon as Li Mu opened the pot, before he could see clearly from the mist that exuded the aroma of corn, the group of people next to him had already lined up with chopsticks.

I just waited for Li Mu to get the corn out, and then I chose a big one and put it on with chopsticks.

Seeing the group of people gearing up, Li Mu silently took a chopstick and held it in his hand, then took the basin and got out the bag of grain.

As soon as the bread was out of the pot, before it could be brought to the table, everyone rushed to it.

Li Mu was quick and grabbed two big ones, but when he was about to grab the third one, there were only a few small ones left in the basin.

And when the young apprentice who was waiting at the door came in to take a look, there was only a short, small, ugly tree with few grains left in the pot.

After grabbing the corn, everyone went out to the yard.

For a while, the courtyard was usually full of majestic and human-looking people standing or squatting, one by one holding a bag of corn with their chopsticks and blowing there with their mouths pouting, looking a little funny.

Just as everyone was gnawing on the corn, there was a sudden burst of firecrackers in the distance from the mountain.

"Speaking of which, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two days' time," Master Qin said.

Master Qin has a family in Anfu, so he must go back for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"I have to go back too." Qian Qianqian was rather reluctant to come here.

He was still young, so he didn't think too much about festivals like the Mid-Autumn Festival. If his father hadn't told him to go back before he left this time, he wouldn't want to go back at all.

Ma Yi didn't speak, just gnawed on the corn while sucking in the air-conditioning.

Yun'er is also going to leave, he can stay here for three days at most, and he has to leave tomorrow.

After the sound of firecrackers was set off, the sound gradually disappeared.

Every Mid-Autumn Festival, the cemetery in the mountains in their place is very lively, because they have the custom of sweeping graves during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In other places, it is Qingming or Chinese New Year, or the winter solstice to go to the mountains to sweep the tombs, but here they do the mid-autumn sweeps, so every time this time, many people will worship in the mountains.

On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, the sound of firecrackers was endless.

Maybe more people died in the past ten years, and every family rushed to go up the mountain to set off firecrackers on this day, so it was more lively than New Year's Eve.

Listening to the sound of firecrackers again, and talking about the mid-autumn tomb-sweeping event, everyone who had been happily nibbling on the corn fell silent.

Other than money, the rest of the people felt somewhat.

Over the past ten years, among them, except for the youngest Qianqian, they all came through the flood, and even Yun'er had seen a lot of life and death.

The one buried in this mountain is his father.

003.

A few years ago, when he lived in the mountains with Uncle Hong, he would go to the mountains to sweep graves at this time, but he was still young at that time, and although his grandfather and others said that it was his father, he didn't feel anything about it.

After entering the palace, he became more sensible, and after knowing what that slope represented, some things changed. In the past few years, he has not been able to come back to visit the tomb once.

At the beginning, Lin Shang was afraid of his father taking the throne, so he sent someone to secretly poison him.

After his grandfather Lin Hong found out, he secretly sent someone to bring him out, but it was already too late. He was insane and had no cure, and finally died of poisoning in this mountain.

Afraid of revealing his identity and being suspected by others, his grandfather cruelly left his father's body in the forest to be eaten by wild beasts, saying that he was attacked and fell to his death while playing in the mountains.

At that time, his grandfather thought that the matter was over, but who knew that he just finished the funeral here, and then received news that Lin Shang would not let him go even when he was still in the womb...

His mother's seed poison was already deep, and she died of dystocia when she gave birth to him. He managed to save his life, but the poison was carried in the womb, and his eyesight has been bad since birth.

He only learned about these past events after he entered the palace.

He didn't think it at first, after all he had never met his father and mother, and now that it was mentioned, he couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart.

"Some things are in the past, and the dead can't be found." Ma Yi, who had never spoken, said this suddenly.

Hearing his words, everyone looked over in surprise.

Ma Yi just squatted on the ground and continued to nibble on the bag of corn in his hand, as if the bag of corn was a peerless delicacy.

"That makes sense." Master Qin nodded. Although he survived the catastrophe and had a good life, he also saw a lot of life and death.

Li Mu looked at Master Qin next to him, and when he looked up, he found that Ma Yi was staring at him.

"There are some things, so don't worry about them." Ma Yi said something wrong, "The dead are gone."

Li Mu was taken aback for a moment, he always felt that Ma Yi was speaking to him at the moment.

He thought of what Master Qin said to him before, and when he looked over, Ma Yi had already lowered his head, only looking at the corn in his hand.

Li Mu looked at Ma Yi, he looked at Ma Yi's face carefully, but no matter how long he stared at it, he still couldn't find any trace of Qi Xin on Ma Yi's face.

He has been with Qi Xin day and night for three and a half years. During those days, Qi Xin's face has already been deeply etched into his mind, and he will never forget or admit his mistake.

Qi Xin is the youngest one in their team, besides him, probably because of his young age, so his personality is quite lively, and he gets along best with him.

In addition, Qi Xin is a family ancestral cooker, and Li Mu has an appetite. When the two of them were in the military camp, they often tried their best to get some food in the wasteland that had been reduced to a battlefield.

If Yang Tiejun takes care of him like a father, Lao Hei is also a teacher and friend, and Su Dayong is a calm and intelligent elder, then Qi Xin is more like an elder brother to him, although in fact he is probably younger than Qi Xin. Xin is even older.

Looking at Ma Yi, Li Mu opened his mouth, unable to make a sound.

What he cared about from the beginning was to find the family members of these people, and to send the news of the death. Over the past few years, he has experienced a lot.

After understanding the anger and jealousy in Bai Osmanthus and Su Yu's eyes, and experiencing Zuo Yi's incident, his originally unwavering heart gradually wavered and became full of doubts.

Now, he was suddenly relieved.

Perhaps as Ma Yi said, some things should not be missed after they have passed, and the dead are gone.

He brought the last wishes of those people. Although things may not be perfect, he has done everything he can for them.

Li Mu lowered his eyebrows slightly, looking at the loess in front of him.

He is still alive, in this world.

At this moment, a force suddenly came from his shoulder.

Li Mu looked back and saw that Zhong Xiuyuan had already stood by his side at some point.

He was putting one hand on his shoulder, and he tilted his head slightly, looking at him with some doubts in his eyes.

Everyone was still talking about the tomb-sweeping on the Mid-Autumn Festival and about going back. Among all the people, only Zhong Xiuyuan noticed Li Mu's strangeness.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Xiuyuan asked softly.

There was no change in Li Mu's expression, he just lowered his head in a daze.But even so, Zhong Xiuyuan still sensed something was wrong.

He has been with Li Mu for so long, he is familiar with this person, he can detect something wrong with this person without a frown or a smile, just a look in his eyes.

Li Mu shook his head, and when he looked up again, he happened to see Ma Yi looking back at him, lowering his head and smiling wryly.

Li Mu raised his eyes again, looking at the mountain behind Ma Yi which is the cemetery.

The mountain was a little away from them. Almost all the people in the village and town were buried there, and those who set off firecrackers were also there.

Yun'er's father was buried there, and the parents of the original owner of his body were also buried there.

"Let's go to the grave together in two days!" Li Mu shook Zhong Xiuyuan's hand beside him instead.

Zhong Xiuyuan looked in the direction Li Mu was looking at, and nodded his head when he heard the sound of firecrackers approaching from a distance.

After he came here, he hadn't had a chance to go there yet.

"I'll go too." Yun'er's voice came.

The two looked down, only to see Yun'er, who was standing next to Li Mu, gnawed on the corn, raised her head and was looking at him.He was supposed to leave tomorrow, but at this moment he didn't want to leave.

Li Mu understood what Yuner was thinking, he reached out and rubbed Yuner's hair, then nodded.

After Uncle Hong left the mountain, every year Li Mu went to sweep his father's grave and burn some paper money.

The few people who were happy at first stopped talking because they suddenly talked about sweeping the tomb.

After silently eating the bread in their hands, everyone dispersed.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and after staying in the mountains for a day or two, everyone was ready to leave and go home.

In the evening, after seeing off Master Qin and his money, Ma Yi also proposed to leave, and Li Mu sent him to the middle of the mountain as usual.

"Okay, you can come here!" Ma Yi waved his hand, turned around and walked down the mountain with the servants he brought.

But Li Mu chased after him. He caught up with Ma Yi and handed over the things he had taken out from home in the morning.

"What is this?" Ma Yi took what Li Mu handed over, and looked at it suspiciously.

It was a wooden sword, an arm-length wooden sword with simple and rough workmanship. The wooden sword was old and its surface had changed color.

This thing is like a plaything in the hands of those children in the town, even rougher than those playthings.

After Ma Yi took the wooden sword over, he roughly looked at it, and glanced at Li Mu suspiciously. Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, he lowered his head and continued to look at the wooden sword in his hand.

After looking at one side, he turned it over to look at the other side.

As soon as the wooden sword was turned over, Ma Yi suddenly froze in place. After a long while, he let out a long silent sigh and said nothing, just put away the wooden sword.

This wooden sword was only about the length of an arm, and about three fingers wide. It was when Qi Xin pestered Yang Tiejun to teach him how to do it when he was in the barracks.

Yang Tiejun was a blacksmith, but Qi Xin stalked him to teach him how to make wooden swords. In this regard, there is almost no talent.

Yang Tiejun was so angry that he scolded his mother, and he only made such a four-dimensional thing. For this reason, Su Dayong, who was bored and made wooden swords together, laughed at him many times.

Li Mu had studied the wooden sword countless times before to find clues, but it didn't have any special features.The only difference between it and other wooden swords is probably the word 'one' engraved on the hilt.

Qi Xin said that meant number one in the world, and they never cared about it. Although Qi Xin is the captain of their team, sometimes he does certain things that make people speechless.

After Qi Xin died, they only found this one thing among his belongings, and when he retired later, they only took this one thing with him.

After getting it back, he put it away for a few years, until the wood was blackened to death, and the ugly wooden sword, which was originally crudely made, was even more ugly...

Li Mu quietly looked at Ma Yi who was trying to maintain his composure, but the composure on his face was gradually cracking.

"So, you are just not likable!" Ma Yi scolded suddenly.

"This kind of junk, you can just find a place to throw it away, why keep it?" Ma Yi cursed, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword was also throbbing with veins.

Li Mu didn't speak, just stood quietly.

Ma Yi stared at Li Mu fiercely, his eyes gradually turned scarlet.

Those emotions that he had hidden very well at the moment also emerged uncontrollably with the appearance of the wooden sword.

He had already sent someone to investigate the operation a few years ago, and he already knew what he should know.

After so many years, he thought that he had long since looked down on this matter, and he was doing well alone in this world.What should be eaten, what should be drunk, should not delay anything, and should not treat oneself badly.

Until I accidentally met Li Mu through Boss Nashi before.It wasn't until later that Li Mu went to Anfu, and it wasn't until he sent people to inquire about Li Mu's news in order to punish Li Mu, that he remembered this incident again.

It wasn't until then that he knew that Li Mu was the only one among that group of people who came back alive.

Maybe it was God's will, maybe it was evil fate, after accidentally learning the news of Li Mu's housewarming, he still came with Master Qin.

He didn't know why he came here. Although he and Li Mu had some friendship, it was not to the extent that he would go so far to give him a red envelope for him.

Now, looking at Li Mu standing quietly in front of him without changing his face, Ma Yi understood a little.

He is jealous.

Jealousy that the only person alive is Li Mu, not anything else
