The fog gradually dissipates and the dawn arrives

"We have to go find Granny Lan." I said firmly, but my thoughts drifted back to the raid a few days ago.

Mo Yu's moves were brutal and ruthless, clearly intending to kill us.

The words he said before he disappeared, “This matter is not over yet,” were like a thorn in my heart.

Instead of waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative and find out his purpose and identity.

Elder Lin nodded in agreement: "Grandma Lan is knowledgeable and experienced, perhaps she knows something."

We asked along the way and finally arrived at a small town called Luoxia.

The town is not big, but it is extremely lively, with hawking and shouting sounds one after another.

However, the excitement was soon broken.

A few thugs appeared out of nowhere and blocked our way.

"Hey, isn't this the eldest daughter of the Wei family? Why are you also shopping in this small place?" The guy in the lead, with a fat face, spoke in a frivolous tone and looked at me unscrupulously.

Hao Yang's face darkened and his fists clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.

He hates to see anyone treat me like this.

I gently took his hand and shook my head.

It is better to have less trouble than more. The most important thing for us now is to find Granny Lan and find out what happened to Mo Yu.

Although Hao Yang was somewhat unwilling, he still listened to me and endured it.

He took a deep breath and glared at the thugs coldly: "Get lost!"

Seeing Hao Yang's aggressive attitude, those people didn't dare to really attack him even though they were outnumbered, so they could only walk away in disappointment.

"Are you feeling frustrated?" I asked Hao Yang softly, looking at his tense profile.

Hao Yang shook his head and held my hand with his backhand. His palm was warm and strong: "As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of anything."

I looked at him and a warm feeling welled up in my heart.

His love, like the sunshine in winter, dispels the haze in my heart.

We continued walking forward, and people around us looked at us with envy.

A perfect couple, a match made in heaven, probably refers to us.

Finally, we found where Grandma Lan lived.

A simple little courtyard, filled with various flowers and plants, emitting a faint fragrance.

I went up and knocked on the door, and an old voice came from inside: "Who is it?"

"Mother-in-law, we are here to..." Before I could finish my words, the door opened.

An old woman with silver hair stood at the door, looking at us kindly.

"Come in, children." Grandma Lan's voice was gentle, but it carried an unquestionable power.

We followed Grandma Lan into the yard.

Granny Lan looked at us and suddenly said, "Are you here for Mo Yu?"

I was stunned for a moment. How did Grandma Lan know that we came for Mo Yu?

Before I could say anything, she welcomed us into the house.

The furnishings in the house are simple but clean and tidy, and the air is filled with a faint scent of herbs.

After Granny Lan asked us to sit down, she got straight to the point: "I know you're here for Mo Yu, but this matter involves so many things that I can't easily tell you." She paused, her eyes fixed on me, "Unless you do me a favor."

Hao Yang and I exchanged glances, and my doubts grew even more intense.

Hao Yang shook my hand and signaled me to be careful.

Elder Lin also frowned slightly, and the atmosphere became a little solemn for a moment.

I took a deep breath and asked, "What does Grandma want me to do?" Grandma Lan smiled and pointed to the backyard: "Help me pick ten orchids."

Orchid?

I have heard of this flower. It grows on cliffs and is very difficult to pick.

Grandma Lan’s request seems simple, but it is actually a test of my ability.

After a little hesitation, I agreed.

Hao Yang and Elder Lin were both a little surprised, but they chose to believe me.

The cliff in the backyard was steep, and I climbed up carefully. Hao Yang and Elder Lin looked at me worriedly from below.

The orchids emit a faint fragrance and sway gracefully on the cliffs.

I held my breath and finally picked ten orchids.

When I returned to the ground, Hao Yang immediately came forward to support me, his eyes full of concern.

Granny Lan took the orchid and nodded with satisfaction. "You are indeed a brave child." She said slowly, "Mo Yu was actually looking for a treasure called 'Starfall', and he mistakenly thought you had it."

Falling stars?

I've never heard of this thing.

But what Grandma Lan said made me suddenly realize that it was all a misunderstanding.

I had a way to deal with it in my mind, and a confident smile appeared on my face.

Seeing me like this, Hao Yang and Elder Lin felt much more at ease.

The dawn of hope seems to be right before our eyes.

However, just as we were about to set out to find Mo Yu to explain things clearly, we received a message: Mo Yu appeared again, and caused considerable damage.

"He... he's in the village west of Luoxia Town!" the messenger panted. "He's also injured a lot of people!"

My heart sank suddenly. Why did Mo Yu do this?

We must stop him as soon as possible!

Without thinking too much, we immediately set off to the scene of the incident.

A feeling of unease enveloped us. I held Hao Yang's hand tightly, praying in my heart that nothing worse would happen.

Rushing to the village entrance, I saw a chaotic scene from afar...

"Mo Yu!" I shouted and rushed over.
