Loyal servant

The black water horse raised its head and neighed long, lying down in front of me, blocking many fatal blows for me.I quietly looked into its bright black eyes, as deep and mysterious as the ancient well in the old house, it knew all my secrets.I stroked its mane and it rubbed against the back of my hand.

Heishui Heishui, you leave quickly, you were once a good horse in the imperial city, you were well-fed with fine grains, and your hair was strong and strong, you walked across the streets and across the city, and you were so uncomfortable.

Heishui Heishui, in fact, I would also like to share the moonlight with you and return to my hometown——

I tremblingly thrust the Red Flame Sword into my chest.

I look to the east, cross a dangerous and fantastic mountain, and cross a kind and fierce river, which is my hometown.In a trance, I was still the queen of the general in fresh clothes and angry horse.

The high city walls are majestic and splendid under the sun, but looking back, there is only my desert.

The pure white and innocent anemone swayed gently in the breeze, and my breath was mixed with blood, and it became more and more difficult.

I fantasized that I was a repressed container, spewing out infinite grief and love after being pierced.I don't regret it, I don't hold a grudge against you, and I don't even want to keep my hatred for the Qiang people.

I just have some regrets.

The you who sent me out of the palace step by step, the you who kept me in the desert step by step.Have you already governed the country and been admired by all people?

From the barren desert of the frontier to the bustling imperial capital, there is a distance of [-] miles. It seems that I will never go back in this life.

----

I slept for a long time.

So long, as if I never existed.

Hearing the sound of gurgling water, I feel in a trance that I have been floating in a small boat on a sea of ​​stars since I was born, floating up and down, and drifting with the current.

It seems that I have never carried too much fate, nor have I poured too much emotion into it.

But I finally woke up, like a new life.

I lost all memory except vague information.

I opened my eyes, and there was a completely unfamiliar environment in front of me.My vision is still blurry and my mind is still dizzy. I slowly come to my current situation.

I seemed to be lying on a cushion of soft fur.Sitting next to me was a brightly colored girl of a different ethnicity. She was wearing a distinctive Qiang costume, and her long, curly, light-colored hair was tied into a braid.

The tawny, fawn-like eyes looked at me without probing or dark suspicion, like a child discovering a stone in a strange shape.

Seeing that I woke up, she let out a small exclamation.

"Ah! I'm going to tell Lin!", standing up.

She spoke the language of the Qiang people, which I could understand.But I remember that I seem to be a citizen of Daliang...?

She leaned in front of me, tilted her head and asked, "What's your name?"

my name......

I suddenly picked up the fragments of memory, and a scene from a long time ago flashed in front of my eyes.It was in the southwest corner of the imperial city, and the early winter sun was shining golden light.

I bent down and smiled and said to the person in front of me: "My name is Nori Danmu——"

My heart was clenched tightly for a moment, suffocating pain.

I rushed to say in a panic: "Ye Li Danmu, my name is Ye Li Danmu!" I ignored the dryness and hoarseness of my throat and the pain caused by the pulling of the wound.Uncontrollably, he grabbed the girl's clothes hem vigorously.

The girl was frightened by me, her moist pupils were wide open, and she carefully pulled the skirt out of my hand.

"Nori, okay, woo...it's all right!" She still tried her best to comfort me.

"I...I, I'll call someone!" She ran out of the tent without looking back.

I was stunned, still maintaining the movement just now, immersed in the picture that flashed in my mind just now.

There is a childish voice in the memory: "My mother's name is Yeli Danmu, what about you?"

Yeli Danmu - I have no doubt that this is my name, and it brings me familiarity from the soul.

----

I could feel my shoulders and legs were badly hurt, but it was handled well.

Looking at the tents, the floor is covered with patterned carpets, and the totem of "Blood Wolf" is hung on the wall, which are undoubtedly the characteristics of the Qiang people.But the tents are spacious and tall without other living utensils, unlike ordinary Qiang people's houses.

Soon a man walked in quickly, and the girl timidly followed behind him.My throat was dry and hoarse, and I coughed inadvertently.He hurriedly brought me a cup of hot tea, with a look of pity in his long and narrow black eyes.

With a hoarse voice, I asked the man called by the girl in Qiang language. "Is this the camp?"

"Yes, don't worry, you are already safe." Lin, who had the appearance of Liang Ren, smiled and slowly put away the teapot.

"Our girl picked you up by the river, and the wound on your body was already rotten. Fortunately, it was near the camp, otherwise, it would be very difficult to survive in this season," he lowered his eyelashes, observing me action. "Who are you and where did you come from?"

I paused, and shook my head honestly, "I don't remember. I only know that my name is Yeli Danmu." I looked at him calmly, and calmly picked up the warm strong tea made from tea cakes , covering my expression in the rising warm steam.

I ignored Lin's momentary surprise when he heard my name.

The Qiang people live on nomads, and the tribe is not prosperous, but the men are fierce and brave, and everyone is good at riding and shooting.There are also some transactions with Daliang, which is located in the Central Plains. For Daliang people, they are barbarians from Beirong.

The war between the Qiang people and Daliang seems to have started five years ago, so what is going on now?I can't remember.

From Lin, I learned that this is the camp of the Qiang people. The leader led the men to deal with the Liang people outside, and now only a part of them are in the camp.They took me in and let me recuperate well and treat this place as their own home. They don't seem to treat me as an outsider. I don't understand the reason.

I have lost my memory, and I have not lost my judgment, so I can't act rashly.What's more, I feel that the door of memory that is blocked in my brain is slowly being opened, and there will always be a day when the clouds will be cleared.

Lin is from Daliang, but he is also the only doctor. He also teaches the leader's youngest daughter to read and write.I didn't explore his life experience, which must be very special. After all, who can have an ordinary life?

In the morning Lin treated my wounds and took me to meet some clansmen.They left me alone in that tent at night.

There was a familiar song floating on the grassland. I don’t know which girl in the camp was singing it. I was trying to trace whether I had heard it before, but the soft evening wind and physical exhaustion soon took me away. fall asleep.

I dreamed about my past, and the scenes of the past returned one after another——

I am the eldest son of my father,

Talented and talented generals...

I am the general on the frontier,

He is a loyal minister of Daliang...

I walked into the grassland without hesitation and left my hometown.

The barbaric Qiang people entered our city, their clothes were stained red with blood, their unyielding bodies fell one after another from their high horses, and the sky was covered in black arrows... black, red, yellow, green Heavy colors remind me of real nightmares.

I opened my eyes, stroked my heart, gasped heavily, and swallowed a fishy sweetness gushing out of my throat.

Burned out but calmer, I am now in the camp of sworn enemies.I decided to hide my identity and survive, I had to live... The only thing I'm thankful for is that at least I didn't completely lose myself, but the memory made me more and more confused.

Why didn't the Qiang people kill me, a Liang person, but saved me and took good care of me?

The next day, under the reflection of the lingering river on the grassland, I seemed to understand the answer to this question.

I am reflected in the water, with the same light brown eyes and deep face as all Qiang people.

----

My mother is from the Qiang nationality, and she only appeared in the first four years of my life when I was the most carefree.

She is a typical Qiang woman with soft arms and smiling eyes.She gave me a Qiang name, she would hum songs from her hometown for me, and she would show a sad expression that I couldn't understand.Will whisper in my ear: I am his most precious treasure - but in the end, she still left me.

I remember that when I was a child, I always cried and wanted to find Eminem. When I grew up, I realized that a weak woman like my mother is only suitable to be a sheep on the grassland. Mess.

The initial gift my mother gave me now became my life-saving talisman, and she gave me life again selflessly.

But the blood of the barbarian and the appearance of the foreign race were once the abyss and the source of darkness for someone.

You have the same blood as me.Perhaps it was because I couldn't forget those similar light brown eyes that I saved you who was being bullied by your compatriots in the imperial city that day.You shrank yourself into a ball, resisting your brother's scolding or beating, your little hands trembling slightly.

That day, I was very angry.Although lambs are weak, they are much cuter than ferocious wolves!After I chased away those bullying little bastards, I tried to reach out to you, trying to make my smile look amiable after I used my fists.

I exchanged names with you, and since then I have surrendered my future.
