As natives of Beijing, the Shen family traveled through most of Daning and finally came to this remote village. They were a little uncomfortable at first, but they were quickly attracted by the tranquility of this mountain village.

The beautiful scenery and simple folk customs here seem to completely isolate you from all the disturbances in the outside world.

Without the constraints of many rules in the capital, not only the children are growing up carefree, but the adults also feel comfortable physically and mentally, especially Mrs. Shen, whose health is getting better day by day under the nourishment of this leisurely environment.

During her days in the small village, Shen Ruoyan began to gradually adjust her mentality and felt lucky that she could find a relatively safe refuge for her family. However, her heart was still uncontrollably concerned about everything going on outside the mountains.

I wonder how far the war outside has progressed?

Where did those secret letters from my father go?

What kind of situation does Lu Yan have in the capital?

Shen Ruoyan kept telling herself that she alone could not control the disturbances outside. Right now, the most important thing was to protect her son and family.

However, fate seemed not to give Shen Ruoyan a chance to breathe.Just when she finally concealed her inner worries and tried her best to show a strong and optimistic side, something unexpected happened.

That night, the moonlight was like water, and its pure white light fell on the land of the small village.

When the entire village fell into a peaceful dreamland, the dogs raised by several families suddenly started barking crazily.

Shen Ruoyan was a light sleeper, and she immediately sat up from the bed when she heard the dog barking.

After listening to the movement outside for a while, Shen Ruoyan's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, feeling that something bad was about to happen.

She put on her clothes and got up, and was about to walk out the door when there were several rapid knocks on the door from outside.

Shen Ruoyan opened the door, and when she saw that the person coming was the guard she hired, her heart immediately skipped a beat.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Shen Ruoyan's voice was trembling.

She has already lived in seclusion in the mountains. If someone else comes after her, it will definitely be a big deal.

The guard's voice also sounded a bit anxious, "Madam, the brothers guarding outside the village are here to report that a group of people want to break into the village."

Shen Ruoyan asked: "Can you see clearly what the other party is wearing?"

Now that the Shen family has no official and a young body, Shen Ruoyan really can't figure out who the other party is and why he chases him deep into the mountains?

The guard shook his head, "They are all dressed in black, and their faces are covered with black scarves. It's hard to see where they are coming from.

Madam, please find a safe place to hide with your family. "

Seeing that she couldn't find any useful information, Shen Ruoyan quickly called the servants to call the family members.

Lu Shibai was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly shaken awake. He hummed a few times and wanted to go back to sleep, but was picked up by Shen Ruoyan.

Smelling the familiar fragrance of his mother, the little guy rubbed his eyes and muttered vaguely: "Mother."

Shen Ruoyan hugged her young son tightly, her heart filled with fear and uneasiness.

The family members were shouted out one by one. When they heard that there was danger, they immediately turned pale with fear.

Shen Ruoyan comforted her family while thinking of countermeasures.

Since the other party was able to pursue him deep into the mountains, he should have been fully prepared. Fortunately, Shen Ruoyan had been hiring a group of guards, but I don't know if these people could withstand the opponent's attack.

They are a large family, ranging from old to young, so it is not easy to escape.

Just when Shen Ruoyan was anxious, the village chief walked in quickly with a cane.

Seeing that the Shen family stayed up most of the night and stood neatly outside, the village chief knew that something big must have happened. He asked worriedly, "Madam, you suddenly called me here this late at night, but something urgent happened." ?”

Shen Ruoyan did not dare to delay and told the truth.

Hearing that someone was about to break into the village, the old village chief was also frightened. He had been farming in the mountains all his life and had never seen such a scene before.

"Grandpa, village chief, don't worry. Those people should be coming for us." Shen Ruoyan comforted, "I invited you over in the middle of the night. I mainly wanted to ask if you know any secret passages nearby or where you can hide. place?"

The village chief thought for a moment and his expression changed. He pointed to the woods not far away and said: "Madam, I know a secret passage up the mountain. We in the village are most familiar with the nearby hills. As long as we hide in the forest, unless they dare to set fire to it, Burn the mountain and be immortal to ensure that no one can find you!"

A glimmer of hope flashed in Shen Ruoyan's eyes, and she hurriedly asked: "Village Chief, are you sure? But with so many of us, can we really all hide?"

The village chief nodded and said firmly: "We have been living here for generations.

The surrounding mountains look like mountains to others, but in our eyes, they are clearer than the roads in the city.

However, for the sake of safety, I still suggest that you divide your troops into two groups, so that you have more places to hide. "

Shen Ruoyan bit her lip tightly, thinking about whether her mother could hold on.

However, she also knew very well that if she was caught by the other party, she would definitely not end well.

Mrs. Shen also knew what her daughter was worried about. She patted Shen Ruoyan's arm firmly and said, "Ayan, don't worry about me. My mother will never hold you back."

Shen Ruochuan also patted his chest and promised, "Mother, don't forget that you still have me. If you can't walk, I can carry you."

Seeing how much her children cared about her, Mrs. Shen felt that no glory or wealth was important. She was satisfied as long as her family could stay together in peace.

"Madam, please don't worry. I'm going to find some young and strong guys to escort you to the mountain."

The village chief was also very efficient, and soon several dark-skinned young people were called over.

When they heard that they were going to take the Shen family up the mountain, they immediately sorted out all the tools they needed without saying a word.

Shen Ruochuan took his wife and children with Mrs. Shen, while Shen Ruoyan went with Qin'er and Lu Shibai. The guards were also divided into two teams to escort them up the mountain.

The remaining servants and maids put on villagers' clothes and hid in every villager's house pretending to be villagers.

After arranging everything, Shen Ruoyan didn't have time to say goodbye to the village chief, so she gritted her teeth and walked into the dark forest.

The bright moon in the sky shines on the earth forever, and Shen Ruoyan thinks of the night when she took Lu Yan to escape.

I don't know if it was a deliberate arrangement of fate, but now she took her son and Qin'er and plunged into the mountains again.

The night breeze blew gently on Shen Ruoyan's face, as if praying for them.

Shen Ruoyan took a deep breath, hoping that she could get through this time safely.
