The Queen of the Prairie and I

When I opened my eyes, the eldest sister told me to follow the team.

I seem to have had a very long dream, a world that is cruel, turbulent, but sweet.

Thousands of miles of desolation in the northwest land, only at the end of the horizon can you see the blurred outline of the Baishan Mountains.Every step he took, a cloud of dust would rise up, and the dry breath tormented his nose and lungs.

A slave will always be a slave.It seems that a nun once said this to me.The small scar on the back seemed to be bleeding again, all the way to the hem of the skirt.

"Why didn't you follow?"

The dust was flying, and an Anzu Raider came to me and said.A lock of brown hair peeked out from the front of her helmet.Still with that majestic look.

"Sister..."

She raised the whip, and was surprised to see that I was indifferent.

"Xiao Li, are you okay?"

asked the elder sister.

"I...I had a long dream."

I said, it might not be long, it's just as long as four seasons reincarnate once.

"Dream? Nightmare?"

"No."

I answered.

"However, after waking up from the dream, I always feel that my heart hurts."

I stepped back while talking, and suddenly stepped on a puddle, and my entire shoe was soaked.

As soon as I turned around, I found that it was a small river with water, and boats on the water came and went.

A woman in green was at the bow of the boat, holding a little girl who was only three or four years old.The child had no curiosity or nature about the landscape of the river, but was so frightened that he hugged his mother tightly and refused to let go.The boat swayed slightly on the water, slowly moving forward with the paddles.

"Wheat clumps rustle, insects clank"

Seeing that her daughter was intimidated by the strange outside world, the woman laughed and sang softly.

"The birds are closed, the wind is gentle."

She continued to sing, with that crisp and melodious voice.

The river water had already reached my chest, and when I continued to walk towards the boat, I finally sank to the bottom of the water.The sun fell from the water surface, illuminating the pouring twilight one after another, and in the flickering embellishment, the shadow at the bottom of the boat sailed slowly.

I swung my arms as hard as I could, exhausting the water that I haven't used for many years, hoping to return to the river quickly and take a look at that woman again.

When we finally reached the surface of the water, the clear sunlight disappeared, and the entire river surface was crimson without any trace of boats.

"Mother! Mother!"

I shouted, and I was answered by the Snare Conch.Countless cavalry galloped on the streets, burning, killing and looting everywhere.When I stepped on the street, a pool of blood was under my feet, and it splashed directly to my waist.The cavalry were still looting everywhere, and the huge black wolf flag was flying as they galloped.

A fire ignited on the city wall in the distance, and patches of darkness covered the sky, as if ghosts and monsters, and the scene of people who died suddenly returning to the funeral.

"mother!"

I shouted again, and suddenly heard the same voice, but very immature.

"Mother!—Mother!——" A little girl was thrown across the horse by a cavalryman. Regardless of her dying cries, the cavalrymen ran further and further away.

"Sheng'er!"

A woman's desperate cry came from behind, and when she turned around, she saw countless Lu Bing blocking the woman.

"Madam is dangerous! Bandit soldiers are still on the street!" those soldiers shouted, during which time someone was shot and fell to the ground.Such a chaotic and terrifying scene did not seem to scare the woman.

"Take Madam back quickly!" The soldier shouted, and several soldiers dragged the woman back to the gate of Dazhai.She cried out as hard as she could, as if a piece of meat had been torn off.

"My Sheng'er!—" The voice was soon drowned in the shouts of killing.

I looked at the place where I swam over. On the other side of the blood-red river, there was still the barren land of the Western Regions.The scenery in the distance was distorted by the heat, but the elder sister was still riding a horse, watching me from afar.

What I saw was hell.

I want to tell her so that she should not come over.

"Not necessarily?"

she replied from a distance.

Swimming across the river again, the elder sister was still looking at me, but I was staring at a further distance.Much the same.

battlefield.

Dead body.

violence.

ridicule.

Flattery.

office account.

Yeah, I just found out.It's not hell there.That red neighborhood in the distance is not hell.

It's just the gates of hell.

What I have seen has never been the ugliest part of people's hearts.No matter how brilliant a person is, if he comes to face me in the tent, he will become a beast.Without hope, it would have been possible to place hope in people, but it seemed increasingly absurd.

I continued to walk forward and saw another hall tent.

Pressed down by soldiers, I was finally allowed to raise my head.She was high above, leaning down and looking at me with great interest.As if for a moment, two trees with lush branches and leaves were entangled together.

"Li Shi of Danning Mansion, Li Ningsheng."

The girl under the throne raised her head without fear, and answered to the queen.

Continue to walk forward, and what you see is a bigger battlefield.Tens of thousands of people on the grassland staggered and fell into a pool of blood that went far away.Arrowheads filled the whole earth like a wheat field.Scavenger-eating crows and vultures circled like dark clouds in the sky.

There was a raging flames in Guihuguan, and people in various clothes in the horse market were exhausted in the pursuit of heavy cavalry.

"Hey, it's going to be hell if you go any further."

The elder sister's voice came from behind.

"Are you awake?"

she continued to ask.

Ever since he was taken away, his whole life has been wandering on the edge of the world and hell, unable to distinguish the difference between life and death.I saw hell, the hell in which I myself would lie sooner or later.

"Come with me, it's so boring to live." She continued, "My parents and family are gone. Whether it's the Danning Mansion or the Grassland, I'm not used to living in any place. I'm not a home anywhere, and I'm an enemy everywhere. .”

What she said was not pleasant, but it was the truth.If you have been wandering in a pool of blood, what is there to expect from the fact of being alive?I turned around and finally realized that it wasn't the eldest sister, it was me.

"That's why you know so much." I said, "You're right..."

"I'm a person who doesn't know how to give up. After so many years of being stubborn, I finally polished it off."

"Yes."

Even so, it always felt like something was missing.From the neighbors in the distant fire to the end of this hell on earth, it seems that something has been forgotten.

I saw myself riding a horse towards the end of that purgatory, so I shouted, "Hey, it's hell if we go any further."

But at the end, without the continuation of the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, what I saw was a dungeon.

The queen's hair was disheveled, she had no clothes, and she was so embarrassed that people couldn't believe it.But she didn't look remorseful, nor did she look like she was looking for death.She hugged a person tightly, with a safe expression on her face, as if nothing in this world was worth her fearing, and it wasn't worth her looking sideways.

Yeah, I did forget something.

If it has been wandering in a pool of blood, or there is nothing worth looking forward to.But if you get what you value, life becomes more precious than ever.

"Look, these ten years have been a hell of a step by step." I said to myself.

"But every moment with her has been a blessing."

In that old dungeon, a dazzling white light emanated, engulfing me completely.I looked back and saw that the purgatory that went all the way in those ten years was also illuminated by white light, even reaching the streets of Tanning Mansion.

I walked on, past the white light.

"Do you really want to continue?"

I was there myself, asking behind my back. "Even if the road ahead is full of unknowns, even this life may be wiped out in the collision of ice and fire."

"That's right, even if it is full of unknowns, even if this life may be caught between ice and fire and disappear into nothingness."

In order for her not to suffer alone in a pool of blood like me, in order not to disappoint her trusting and safe moment.

Now that it was agreed, it will be Li Ningsheng and Zhuonatia from now on, so it must be fulfilled.

When I opened my eyes, my second brother was sitting on the side, watching me happily wake up, and I recognized at a glance that this was the second brother's military tent.Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the memory will not be confused.

"Little sister, you finally woke up, you were hit by the poisonous arrows of the An people in the dungeon."

"Where's Dronatia?" I asked.

"Being taken away by the An people, Wen Liangyu has gone crazy, and almost sent out the entire barracks to find someone."

"How long have I... been in a coma?"

"It's been ten days, thanks to my colleagues from Tiger Wolf Cavalry who helped me find you."

"Can I... have a meal?" I don't know why, I am very hungry.

"It's good to know that you're hungry, it's good to know that you're hungry." The second brother was very happy.I know what I'm going to say next will disappoint him and I'm afraid I'll look like a jerk sister, but I have to say it anyway.

"And get me a horse," I said. "I'm going to find her."
