An Yao took a poppy,

"Open up your neckline."

According to Su Tang's words, she unbuttoned her collar to reveal the silver birthmark on her collarbone.

An Yao gently covered her hand, her cool fingers touched Su Tang's warm skin, the poppy in her palm glowed red and then melted into it, a red petal appeared on Su Tang's collarbone, matching the silver color. The birthmarks are entangled together.

"This is my petal, it can keep you safe in case of danger."

He was a little closer, and Su Tang's eyes were glued to his face, realizing that he could actually look at An Yao at the same level, and said in surprise,

"Brother Anyao, am I as tall as you!"

An Yao looked up and found that the young man's eyes were full of joy, so he helped his forehead,

"Is it such a happy thing to be as tall as me?"

"Of course you can't call me little one anymore! I've grown up!"

"Okay, okay, today is your birthday and I will listen to you."

"Brother Anyao, when is your birthday?"

"I've lived too many years to remember."

"But I want to know, and I also want to give you a birthday present."

"I really don't remember. If you insist on an answer, just choose a date for my birthday. I won't forget this time."

Su Tang pulled up the collar and thought about it for a while. At the speed of his own growth, he will be taller than Brother Anyao in the next Shangyuan Festival.

"Then, let's choose the Lantern Festival, okay?"

"it is good."

"You must wait for me in the valley that day. I have something very important to tell you."

"it is good."

An Yao kept his promise, on the day of Shangyuan Festival, he waited from sunrise to sunset, from sunset to the sky full of stars, but he didn't wait for Su Tang either.

He didn't believe that Su Tang would break the contract, and wondered if he had misremembered the date. After another three days, Su Tang still didn't show up. An Yao panicked. Su Tang had never stopped looking for him for so many days, but he The imprint left on Su Tang's body did not send any information that Su Tang was in danger.

On the fourth day, An Yao went out of the valley and went to the market in the form of an ordinary villager. He found that the bustling market in the village was deserted, with only the elderly, women and children. He walked towards the wonton stall by the roadside and asked The old woman sitting behind the booth,

"Grandma, do you know where Su Tang's house is?"

"There is no Su Tang in our village."

It was only then that An Yao remembered that only Su Tang was named by him.

"I misremembered, it's not Su Tang, it's Su Yaosan, do you know how to get to his house?"

"You mean the Su family boy. His house is the fifth house on the right from the entrance of the village. There is a small peach tree in the yard. Do you want to look for him? I'm afraid Su Niang is the only one in his house now."

An Yao's heart trembled slightly.

"What's the matter, is something wrong?"

"I see that you are not a local, are you?"

"I've lived in the mountains for a long time and don't come out very often."

"No wonder, now that there is a war, the government is arresting strong men, and all the men in the village have been conscripted. Now we are the only women and children left in the whole village. You should hurry back to the mountains. I don't know when those officials will come back. We farmers If you know how to fight, don’t you just go to die?”

An Yao understood what happened, but the old lady only knew that it was a conscription, but she didn't know the exact location, let alone Su Tang's location. An Yao couldn't leave the valley for too long, and the people in the village were afraid that he would be taken away too. Urging him to leave, he had no choice but to go back to the valley.

Without news of Su Tang, he could only comfort himself, at least he was safe.

Besides, Su Tang, the day before Shangyuan Festival, he was full of joy and thought that he would go to find An Yao tomorrow to express his heart, because he was a little excited because he was looking forward to tomorrow's arrival. , some doubts, stood up and looked out the window, and saw a group of soldiers rushing in from the entrance of the village holding torches, hurriedly put on clothes and got out of bed to wake up the parents who were sleeping in the back room, the family of three opened the door and went to the courtyard. Scattered and knocked on the door of the village house two by two,

"Come out, the government recruits soldiers! All the men in the family come out."

Su Niang was the first to react, she dragged Su Tang into the house and asked him to hide in the water tank.

"Son, stay well and don't make a sound."

The officers and soldiers had already entered the yard, Su Niang turned around and went out, and Su's third child had already been locked by the officers and soldiers.Su Niang looked at him with tears in her eyes, the officers and soldiers shook off the chains in their hands,

"Are you the only man in your family? No son"

Su Niang hurriedly replied,

"My lord, I'm sick. I've been married to my man for more than ten years and can't have children. There are only us and my wife in my family, and we have no children."

"Your man doesn't blame you for not being able to believe what the old women say after you killed his family. You go into the house and have a look."

He raised his chin at another officer and soldier next to him.

Youngest Su said quickly,

"Don't search, don't search, master, there are really only two of us in my family, and my poor family knows that a married wife should not be abandoned. How could you despise my daughter-in-law?"

"Glib, come, come, I'll take him, you take that old woman, let's go in and search together."

Seeing that she couldn't stop her, the youngest Su had no choice but to stare at Su Niang. Su Niang burst into tears and was dragged into the house by the officers and soldiers, praying that Su Tang would not be found.

But the interior of the house was crude, there were only a few things in the house, and there were only a few places where people could hide. The officers and soldiers turned over the woodpile and looked back to see the water tank by the stove, squinted their eyes and walked over there.

Su Niang saw that he had found out, and struggled to go over to stop him, another officer and soldier pulled her hard,

"There must be someone in there, open it quickly!"

The moment the water tank lid was lifted, Su Tang, who was covered in water, rushed out of it. His kung fu was taught by An Yao. He had learned it for so long but had never practiced it. He bumped hard with his elbow He opened the lid of the water tank at the abdomen of the officer and soldier, and then grabbed the officer's collar and pressed him to the ground. The officer and soldier hit the pile of firewood, and the firewood fell on them with a crackling sound.

Su Tang was about to punch, another officer put the saber on Su Niang's neck,

"Stop it, or I'll kill your old lady!"

Su Tang looked at the knife on Su Niang's neck, his eyes flashed fiercely.The officers and soldiers trembled a little from the excitement in that look, and repeated,

"Do you want to kill your old lady!"
