Chapter 228 Hide Well, Don't Look Back

The two fish escaped from the sky and jumped into the river happily, splashing a lot of water.Xu Shi swung the fish's tail so neatly that it splashed water on Xiao Xiaoyu's face.

Xiao Rang on the side just let out a low laugh.

Xiao Xiaoyu glared at him, raised his sleeves to wipe his face, and suddenly heard several long and short whistles coming from the direction of his home.

Both of them frowned, and looked at each other, Xiao Xiaoyu said, "Father called us back."

"It's only a long time, there is still half a day to go, stay a little longer." Xiao Rang said and turned his head to look at the river.

Unexpectedly, the whistle came again, two points more eager than before.

"It's calling again. The weather is bad, and I'm afraid it's going to rain, so my adoptive father is urging us to go home. Let's go!" While Xiao Xiaoyu was talking, there were several more whistles, more than It was more urgent just now.

This was something that had never happened before, Xiao Rang frowned, unable to sit still.While muttering in his mouth, he stood up and packed his things without any ambiguity.

The two of them hurried back with their fishing tackle and bamboo baskets, but they saw Xiao Yan only halfway there.As if he couldn't wait for them to go back, he came to look for them in person, his lips that were always smiling were tightly pursed into a straight line today, and the expression on his face was also tense and dignified.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Rang felt very obedient, and hurriedly said, "We are going back..."

Xiao Yan didn't wait for him to finish, but said in a deep voice, "Arang, Yu'er, listen to me..." Xiao Yan is an open-minded father who always respects his children and has never interrupted like this The thing about kids talking, it's weird!
Today, starting from that whistle, everything is strange.

Nine-year-old Xiao Rang and seven-year-old Xiao Xiaoyu looked at each other, and saw similar uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Turning his head to look again, he saw that Xiao Yan didn't come empty-handed, he was carrying a small bundle in his hand, and in the other hand was a small sword he made for them.

"Father, what's the matter, let's talk while walking. Where's my mother? Is she alone at home?" Xiao Rang's keenness has been like this since he was a child, and he has already taken a step while asking.

But as soon as he moved, Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and held him tightly. For some reason, his steady hand was trembling slightly. The force he used was not light, and it hurt Xiao Rang, but he didn't say a word. He didn't say anything, but quietly looked back at the dark tide in his father's eyes.

Xiao Xiaoyu looked at Xiao Yan's tense face and trembling hands, and shouted timidly, "Father..."

This sound made Xiao Yan suddenly come back to his senses, realizing that he had frightened the children, he immediately adjusted his mind, calmed down, and said in a steady voice, "You can't go home again!"

"Why?" Xiao Rang asked quickly.

At this moment, another whistle came from not far away, completely different from the one just now, this whistle was also taught by Xiao Yan, but it was almost never used, it was a warning.

The faces of both of them changed at the same time. Xiao Yan also turned his head to look behind him. The forced calm on his face was torn apart for a moment. He hurriedly stuffed the baggage in Xiao Rang's hand, squatted down, and put his hands together. Clutching his shoulders, looking straight at him calmly, he said, "I don't have time to explain too much to you now. In short, something happened to our family. In the future, my mother and I may no longer be able to take care of you and protect you. Now you have to Leave immediately, there are rations and dry food in your luggage, first try to leave Yangzhou, and go to Jingzhou to find your Uncle Tian. If you can’t find... If you can’t find you, then hide your names and live a good life, as long as you live safely, then you will be fine.”

"father!"

"Father!"

Both Xiao Rang and Xiao Xiaoyu were frightened, they never expected to hear such terrible words, their faces were instantly white, Xiao Xiaoyu already had tears in his eyes, and shook his head slightly towards Xiao Yan.

She don't go!This is her home!Where is she going?
"Good boy! Yu'er!" Xiao Yan smiled at her, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile, "Just now what my adoptive father said was just in case...you know, your adoptive mother and I are skilled Very good, how can ordinary people do anything to us? You hide out first, and when you are out of danger, my adoptive mother and I will go find you. The adoptive father keeps his word and has never lied to you, has he?"

"But right now, if you don't leave, we will only be in more danger. So, be obedient!"

After Xiao Yan comforted Xiao Xiaoyu, he turned his head and looked at his son again. The smile on his face was still there, but the light in his eyes became silent inch by inch. The father and son, one big and one small, had similar long and narrow black eyes colliding with each other. As calm as the deep sea.

When Xiao Yan spoke again, his voice was much hoarse, "A Rang, remember what father taught you on weekdays, you are a man, you are a brother. If father is not here, you will have to shoulder the responsibility!"

Xiao Rang stared fixedly at his father, the corners of his mouth fluttered, and was about to say something, but there were several hurried whistles from the direction of the house, even more urgent than before.

Xiao Yan's eyes became even more anxious, with two points of despair and determination, he fixedly looked at Xiao Rang, and tightened his hands on his arms, "A Rang, I will leave Xiaoyu to you, protect her and take care of her." Good for her! Go, be obedient!" After that, she stood up, released the hand on his arm, and turned to rush him towards the river.

The two children looked at him blankly, but met him with a rare stern look on his face, "Let's go!"

Xiao Rang seldom did this, but once he did, it was like a military order, strictly prohibited.

Xiao Rang and Xiao Xiaoyu were unwilling in every possible way, but when they met his eyes, one had a pale face and the other was full of tears, but neither dared to say a word, nor did they dare to disobey the order. They were urged and forced to walk away. step.

"Hurry up!" There was another urging, and the two children staggered and ran into the thick bushes.

"Remember, hide well! Don't look back!" Xiao Yan's deep command was sent by the sudden wind, Xiao Xiaoyu turned his head, and the last thing he saw from the gaps in the branches of vegetation was Xiao Yan's long body standing in the autumn wind, The clothes are fluttering, and the moon is still bright as usual.

Then, he turned around resolutely and strode away, his clothes belt was blown up by the wind, like a flying fairy, he left in the sky and never looked back.

And that was indeed the last time she saw Xiao Yan.

The two children ran for an unknown amount of time, but Xiao Rang, who had been silent all this time, stopped suddenly. He stubbornly raised his hand to wipe his eyes, then turned his head and dragged Xiao Xiaoyu to squat in the bushes. After coming down, he looked at her with red eyes and said, "Hide there well!" He raised his hand and pointed to a small cave they found when they were playing, and said decisively, "I'll go back and have a look first, you don't allow me to hide it!" Come out, wait for me to pick you up!"

Xiao Xiaoyu is not really a child of how old, just now seeing Xiao Yan's situation, something must have happened, or a powerful enemy came to seek revenge, or there was a catastrophe coming, I am afraid it is so serious Xiao Yan was not sure that he would be able to get through it safely, so he hurriedly sent them away.

Moreover, the incident happened so suddenly that they had no time to prepare.

Xiao Xiaoyu was blinded up to this point, looking up at Xiao Rang's immature but resolute eyes, he saw Xiao Yan in a daze.
