Meng Huaize never left this place.

The war was approaching, and most of the people who could escape fled. Meng Huaize had nowhere to go, so he packed up some necessary things and entered Chuanji Mountain.

The Chuanji Mountains are huge and deep, like a natural refuge. No one would think that someone can survive in such a wild and primitive forest depths. However, Meng Huaize walked all the way to the depths of the mountains. The surrounding forests are damp and dark. After nightfall, the mountains are like ghosts. , There will always be some noise coming from nowhere in front of him, but he is not afraid at all.

Wu Yue took him through every dangerous place that is difficult for human beings to walk here. They saw the moon on the top of the tree, and walked absurdly beside the gurgling stream; he saw every little fairy living in this mountain, I heard them quarrel and taught them to recognize herbs.

The mountains that have been silent since ancient times are his only support now.

Meng Huaize walked in the mountains for two days and two nights, and temporarily stayed in a cave.The mountains are deep and deep, not suitable for people to live in. There is no source of food, and the dry food that Meng Huaize brought can't last long. However, when he wakes up every morning, there are always many fresh wild fruits outside his cave, and some even grow in the deepest part of the mountain. , I don't know how much effort it takes to get it.

The kingfisher chirped and chirped, hovering beside him, its voice was clear and sweet, and Meng Huaize couldn't understand anything.He stretched out his hand, and the bird landed on his hand, tilted its head and rubbed against his palm, as if complaining aggrievedly.

Meng Huaize asked the little kingfisher in his hand: "Is that you, Cuicui?"

The little kingfisher's drooping head immediately straightened up, turned around happily, and quickly pecked his finger with its beak as a response.

Meng Huaize couldn't help laughing.

The deep mountains are lonely and unbearable, but he is not alone.

After Meng Huaize stayed in the mountain for half a month, he really didn't know what was going on down the mountain, so he planned to go down the mountain to find out.There was another reason that he didn't even want to admit, he was worried that if Wu Yue came back, he wouldn't be able to find him.

It's ridiculous to say it, obviously he was the one who drove Wu Yue away, he said it so resolutely at the beginning, but in the end he kept thinking about it all the time, hiding some extravagant hopes that shouldn't be there in his heart.

It was only half a month in the mountain, and when he came down again, Meng Huaize almost didn't recognize the place where he had lived for decades.The original village has been turned into ruins, with scorched and ruined buildings under the setting sun, without a trace of life.Meng Huaize's heart skipped a beat, before he even had time to confirm whether the soldiers and horses had retreated, he ran towards his small courtyard.

I don't know whether to say luck or misfortune. His courtyard is far away from the village and has not been affected by too many fires. However, it has also been severely damaged, and its original appearance can no longer be seen.Meng Huaize stood in the courtyard for a long time, and his heavy breathing gradually calmed down. He sat down on the ground next to the half-collapsed courtyard wall, and stared at the still lush crabapple tree in the courtyard, swaggering above the ruins for a long time. I closed my eyes.

He sat from dusk till dark, when night fell and the silence around him was unbearable.Meng Huaize stood up while leaning on the wall, wanting to take a look inside the room, but just as he pushed the half-open door, there was a soft creaking sound, and there was a frightened rustle in the room.

Meng Huaize was taken aback and immediately became alert.The moonlight shines through the roof and into the ruins of the room, and Meng Huaize sees a pair of timid eyes in the darkness.

It was a shivering child looking at him in fear.

That child was the first person Meng Huaize rescued into the mountain.

In the ruins, he used the moonlight to help the child treat the wound briefly, and then took him back to Chuanji Mountain.The child's parents were stabbed to death by soldiers on horseback three days ago, but because they were a little closer to the middle of the street, they failed to make way for the group of cavalry in time.

From the boy's mouth, Meng Huaize realized that the war was far from over, and the situation was even more complicated than he had imagined.The most noble and mysterious palace in the world finally tore away the pretense of being gorgeous and peaceful, and revealed its dirty side to the world without any shyness.

For more than ten years, the two emperors were short-lived one after another, and they had no heirs. The queen mother controlled the government and was assisted by her elder brother. However, Huai Wang, who was passed on to the throne by the first emperor, was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and was personally led by the elder brother of the queen mother. He ransacked his house and killed him.The throne is in vain, and rumors spread all over the place. The two former emperors died strangely. All kinds of rumors point to the empress dowager murdering the emperor in an attempt to proclaim herself emperor.In addition, Duke Huai has always been kind and loyal. He has held the military power in the Northwest for many years. He is quite popular and has many supporters in Beijing. No one believes that he is really collaborating with the enemy and plotting rebellion.The fate of the country is precarious, and wars are frequent in all directions, even if they are temporarily suppressed, they will not be completely extinguished.The war was unavoidable until King Huai's deputy general led the army under the slogan of rehabilitating King Huai and embracing King Huai's son's enthronement and proclaiming himself emperor.

Ordinary people once thought that the noble court was far away from them, but now their lives are so humble under the iron cavalry of the imperial power struggle.

But Meng Huaize did not expect that this war was not only a domestic turmoil, but also involved foreigners.

He couldn't help confirming to the child several times, the child had tears in his eyes, but he still insisted that the cavalry team had the appearance of foreigners and green eyes, and they wore the badges of the government on their waists. After killing someone casually in the street, he stepped into the gate of the official mansion as if there was no one else around, just like his own home.

The official government, the one who obeys orders is naturally the imperial court.Now, the imperial court is equivalent to the queen mother.

Meng Huaize was terrified, the child approached him, his voice was so low that he was afraid of alarming anyone even in this remote mountain.

He asked Meng Huaize: "Doctor Meng, how long can we live?"

There was no light in the cave, only the child's eyes were bright, because there were tears of fear in them.

Meng Huaize grabbed the child's cracked little hand and asked him softly, "Do you want to live?"

The kid nodded.

"Then don't think about that question just now, don't ever think about it," his voice was very gentle in the darkness, but firm as an unshakable mountain, "you just need to think about how to live better."

The boy looked at him for a long time, then nodded vigorously.

There are many people like this boy at the bottom of the mountain. Most of them are not locals, but have fled here from other places. But after leaving home, they found that the troubled world is the same wherever they go.

Meng Huaize began to go down the mountain frequently.

He is just an ordinary person with no great abilities, but now that he knows the situation at the foot of the mountain, and knows that so many people are in danger, he can no longer stay in the mountain safely, just helping one more person bandage the wound is enough good.

It was a very bitter period, and Meng Huaize didn't even want to think about those years for many years afterwards.

He didn't know who was fighting whom, and he didn't know which side was trustworthy, so he had to trust no one.The soil at the foot of the mountain was soaked with blood over and over again, turning it a dull red color. He stepped on the mud, picking out those who still had a chance of life from the pile of dead people, pushing them in, helping them in, and carrying them in. Go to Chuanji Mountain.

The mountain road is so difficult to walk, Meng Huaize did not know how many somersaults he had to fall along the way, some people's injuries were so severe that they couldn't even make it to the cave, they begged Meng Huaize to throw them down, save some strength and leave by themselves, Meng Huaize bit Ya Ya staggered forward, as if he couldn't hear, he refused to let go, and then walked, the person on his back stopped making any sound, and only he was left breathing heavily.

There were more and more people in the mountain, Meng Huaize was afraid of being discovered by the generals at the bottom of the mountain, so he led them deeper into the mountain, and after those people settled down, he turned back alone and went down the mountain, bringing new unknown Where did the people who fled here enter the mountain.

Cui Cui often helps him, she doesn't have to be afraid of being discovered, she often flies down the mountain to help Meng Huaize find someone who needs help, and when she sees it, she flies back to the mountain, poking Meng Huaize's hand to lead him there.Many times she even wanted to help Meng Huaize support the heavy bodies of those people, but her wings were so weak that she could not help Meng Huaize with all her strength trembling. move.

Many injuries on Meng Huaize's body were caused by that, and they often tortured him in the rainy nights and cold days in the next few decades, so that he could not sleep peacefully.But at that time, Meng Huaize didn't have time to think about it, he even forgot about his own life, he only had one thought every day, to save one person, and save one more person.

Many times he felt that he would not be able to keep going, he was just an ordinary doctor, he was not a savior, nor was he a capable or ambitious person, he just wanted to live his life in a normal way, Why did he take so many lives, how could he bear it?However, looking at the people he rescued in the cave, seeing the four- and five-year-old children working hard to learn how to make a fire and cook, and seeing the relics left by those who finally arrived here and died, he gritted his teeth. Finally stood up again.

When he was extremely tired, Meng Huaize went to a place where no one was around by himself, talking to those goblins.Although he couldn't see them, he also knew that these goblins had been silently helping him.

Sometimes, he couldn't help talking about Wu Yue, and only at this time, he had some original smile.

But it was only a few words now and then, and he stopped, and never said a word again.After sitting in silence for a while, he stood up again and continued to do things that would crush him completely at some point.
