Awakening of Rebirth

In the middle of the night, Chang Sheng sat quietly by the fire, the fire flickered on and off, shining on her somewhat dull face.

Baozi died in the explosion on the city tower, and everyone couldn't even bring back his bones. They could only burn the old clothes he had worn and didn't take away one by one, and took a small bottle of ashes.

Chang Sheng held the small glass bottle tightly in his hands like a treasure, and whispered that he must bring the buns back to his hometown.Standing blindly against the tree, I don't know where my thoughts are drifting.

A gust of wind blew by, she curled up and tightly wrapped the thin coat on her shoulders, Jiang Zheng saw it and moved to her side.

This time, Chang Sheng didn't resist, nor did he hide away, but just closed his eyes.

"Tafel is determined to kill you. It's not an easy journey from the western border to Taran."

"I know."

"It seems that you have calmed down." Jiang Zheng stretched his arms forward and said, "Tell me, what have you been thinking about?"

"I don't want anyone to sacrifice anymore..." Chang Sheng said, looking at his open palm, said: "But I can't do anything well, I can only watch them leave one by one."

"and then?"

"I can't help but think, why do I have to bear all this? If I died completely back then, all the pain would have nothing to do with me...Obviously I only wanted to save my father and Mingluo at first, but I don’t know when, tens of thousands of lives are on my body, but I don’t have the ability to bear them.” Chang Sheng lowered his head and continued: “And on this road, I seem to have lost my life. something more than the previous life,"

"So? Are you giving up?"

"Absolutely, I want to pay for all those who have hurt my friend with blood." Chang Sheng said, and suddenly closed his eyes in pain, and said softly: "Azheng, you shouldn't have saved me in the first place. You got involved too."

Jiang Zheng smiled: "Do you think I wanted to save you at the beginning? If I don't save you, who will talk to me?"

"What about now? You are free, and I am no longer the only one who can see you." Changsheng raised his eyes to Jiang Zheng, "You must know that I am in danger now, and it is difficult to give you anything. Why don't you leave?"

"I can't worry about you. I have worked so hard to save you. How can I see you go to die again?" Jiang Zheng said, "You are suffering and hesitant, but you still don't give up. Isn't it because there are people you can't let go of? ?”

In my heart, is there anyone who can't let go...

"I don't know what's going on with my father and Mingluo now, I hope they are all well."

***

Although the war between Anota and Knossus has a long history, there will be a small-scale conflict from time to time, and everyone has long been used to it.But for some reason, Knossus seems to be crazy recently, and has been carrying out continuous attacks on the Fortress of Siri for several months, as if determined to break through the Ainota border defense line this time.

In order to facilitate this protracted battle, against the wind and snow, at a terrifying speed in just half a month, a military city was built on the ground, and the moat was dug. Facing each other densely, the two cities are so close that they can hear each other's bugles, and standing on the towers at night, they can still see each other's lights.

There was an unspeakable uneasiness in Mingluo's heart, not because of Knossus' attitude of wanting to capture the fortress of Siri, but since Lurek was pardoned, his father had been ill for several months, almost the same During the time period, the Southwest War suddenly became tense, and many reports were not taken seriously.The timing of Knossus’ attack was so coincidental, and Chang Sheng had exposed Lurek’s ambitions to him before he came to Mokodo, so it was hard for him not to make more associations.

At this moment, a letter rushed thousands of miles from Talan to Mokodo in the southwest, and rushed to the Fortress of Xili.

Mo Ni hurriedly delivered the letter to the Nether Room, stood quietly by the side, and accompanied him under the somewhat dim candlelight. After reading the whole letter in an unusually silent manner, she got up and walked to the window, staring blankly at A starry night sky.

There was still a thick bandage wrapped around his arm, which was the injury he had suffered while protecting her from a knife a few days ago.

Moni was three years older than Mingluo. She was originally the daughter of an officer. She lost her father at a young age. She grew up in the army and was subordinate to General Frange. Before saying anything, he arranged her next to Ming Luo.

The soldiers in the Southwest had an indestructible loyalty to the former commander Tafil. Not to mention that Tafeile was transferred unexpectedly, and a child with no hair even came here. This made them extremely indignant and secretly cursed Tafil. Those in power treat them like monkeys.

This little Highness was only 14 years old when he came from Taran, and his height was not as high as her shoulders. Not only did he look gentle and delicate, but he even spoke in a childish voice, which made her feel that her future was hopeless and completely unacceptable. Everything will belong to him in the future.

She clearly remembered that at that time, many acquaintances in the army were laughing at her, saying that she would stay away from the battlefield in the future and take care of the incomparably noble Highness like a nanny.

There are so many people who say this, and Mo Ni gradually feels that in the future, she can only take care of the daily life of this little Highness like a little ancestor, taking pride in not letting him get hurt a little bit, and letting him lose his life. Shame on a hair.

It's just that after a long time, she gradually realized that this little His Royal Highness is not what he looks like on the surface, he is a delicate prince who needs to be taken care of. On the contrary, he is not bad at work and has his own opinions. In a one-day arena, he claimed that he wanted to get advice from the seniors in the army.

Looking at the little doll at first, no one was ashamed to "advise", but then someone dared to do it, and said in the first minute that he would be merciful, and if he offended, I hope the little highness will forgive me, but in the next minute he was dismissed Mingluo was thrown from the ring.At this moment, many people got excited and stepped forward to compete, but a dozen of them failed to win the favor of this child.

Such a kung fu at a young age, although not as good as the previous commander Tafil, still made those who were not optimistic about him at the beginning take back what they had said before.

The noble little Highness should have good food and clothing, and even if he wants to, he can stay away from the front line and enjoy the blessings at the rear with peace of mind, but he lives in the military camp without saying a word, and endures hardships and trains with everyone, and spends more time together. Asking for advice from the military adviser, he rarely put on airs, and it didn't take long for him to become one with the soldiers in the army.

Speaking of getting along...Since the day Mingluo took over as the commander of the Southwest, the style of painting in the army has changed rapidly. In the words of the military adviser Lin Lei, it is: "After the little highness came to Xili, the group of prudish soldiers released their instincts. Turned into a group of real hooligans dressed in fake military clothes, eating, drinking/whoring/gambling didn’t make it all up, all because there was only Moni’s tigress in the barracks, and his mother was flat-chested.”

Responding to this last sentence, Mo Ni almost beat Lin Lei into a pig's head. In order to save his own life, Lin Lei secretly told Mo Ni a "handle" about Mingluo.

He said that once he secretly gambled with someone and was bumped into by Mingluo. Instead of punishing them, Mingluo happily participated in it.But the little bastard is really stupid in this respect, he can't see at all that they are cheating on him, a new young man, and in the end he lost a lot of money. When I turned around, there was no result.

Facing the debt owed by the shameless officer, Linley, as a quick-witted strategist, couldn't think of any way out. Every time he wanted to go to Mingluo to collect the debt, Mingluo would definitely ask him back with a surprised face: "What? Linley You even gambled in the barracks! Don’t you know it’s a violation of military discipline!” Then he patted him on the shoulder and whispered in his ear, “I won’t punish you this time, just keep your mouth shut and don’t make an exception. "

To this, Mo Ni said two words: "Shameless."

"That's right, he is so shameless!" Linley was filled with righteous indignation.

At that time, she just stomped on Linley's foot, turned around and left, and only said: "You are all shameless." Then she rushed to Mingluo and scolded him unceremoniously. Confused, he scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly: "I think you're right, gambling is really a bad habit... So Mo Ni, would you like... a drink of hot water?"

In this regard, Moni has nothing to do with him. This guy always accepts education with humility, but he refuses to change after repeated admonitions. However, the official rank still dominates her, and he can't beat her or scold her. She is really helpless.

If I ask you, do you respect the new leader?They will definitely shake their heads first, then nod again and again.

Originally, everyone didn't want to admit that they respected a little devil, but it was undeniable that Mingluo's mode of commanding the Southwest Army was completely different from that of the strict Tafel, and most of the time, they even turned a blind eye and closed one eye. That unconstrained character gave everyone as much room to relax as possible, but once someone did something he couldn't tolerate, the punishment was very strict.Regardless of his young age, he is easy-going on weekdays, but when he really gets angry, the deterrent force is enough to convince everyone.

It has to be said that this little Highness looks gentle and modest, but he is actually a little fox to the letter.

It's just... the higher the prestige that the little fox builds up, the more responsibilities he needs to take on. In an increasingly urgent situation, he has to force himself to grow up quickly.

It is always difficult to detect a change in a person when he is with him day and night, and it was only at this moment that Mo Ni suddenly realized that His Highness Mingluo is no longer the thin and small person he was when he first came.

The border war sharpened his edges and corners, his delicate facial features gradually hardened, and the voice-changing period also made his voice hoarse and lowered a lot. The little man who used to look down on him is now about the same height as her... so much so that sometimes, she I will forget that this adult who shoulders the comfort of the border is actually just a 16-year-old child.

"Your Highness..." Mo Ni tentatively stretched out her hand to press the letter, waited for a moment, and seeing that Ming Luo didn't intend to stop it, she picked it up and read it by the flickering candlelight.

It turned out that it was a bad news from Taran.

His father, Di Lancer, the king of Ainota, died of illness.

On the day of Di Lanse's death, his eldest son, Lurek, was holding a wedding ceremony for his second son, Tafil. It is said that the happy event did not wash away the king's illness in the end. After the wedding clothes, Tafil and his new wife Rui Yi put on the mourning clothes again.

After the whole country grieved together, all the ministers embraced Lurek as the new king. Everything happened so quickly and so logically, as if it had been planned for a long time.At the end of the letter, Lurek revealed his intention to call him back.

"Your Highness, this..."

He knew that his father's death was not accidental, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do but suppress the grief and anger in his heart.

"When I was young, my nanny told me that whenever a person dies, a star will fall, and when it falls into mountains and rivers, it will turn into insects and birds, and if it falls into rivers, it will turn into fish, free and unrestrained."

"Your Highness also believes this kind of words to coax children?"

"I used to believe it." Ming Luo said, turned his back to the window, glanced at the letter in Moni's hand, and said: "If I remember correctly, the Mrs. Rui in the letter belongs to the elder brother. Happy and sad together He is really anxious to control everything."

Mo Ni couldn't help frowning: "So, now even His Highness Tafil can't help himself?"

"Maybe." Ming Luo said, sighing heavily: "It's unexpected that even the second brother can't restrain the eldest brother. If my sister hadn't sent me here, waiting for me would not be so simple."

"Today's Taran can't go back!"

Ming Luo shook his head: "If the new king calls me back to Talan in the future, if I don't return, it will be rebellion."

"That's the opposite!"

"What did you say?" Mingluo looked at Mo Ni in surprise, her eyes were extremely firm, without any dodge or retreat.

He felt that he must be dazzled, and that Moni who had been looking at him not pleasing to the eye actually knelt down on one knee, paused every word in front of him, and made a very firm and loud oath: "No matter what Ainota will be in the future... In such a political situation, Mo Ni has only followed His Royal Highness Mingluo all her life!"

"You...you are almost at the age to start a family, girls, don't keep thinking about whether you will follow or not for a lifetime..." Mingluo was a little at a loss by Mo Ni's voice, and everything was messed up for a while The words were all said: "Although everyone says you are a tigress and not feminine, don't be too depressed... In fact, you are quite beautiful. Do you want to try to grow long hair? It seems to suit you very well."

Mo Ni's face became darker and darker, and finally she drew a knife and cut off a corner of the table, and said coldly: "Your Highness is still injured, it's not appropriate to bother about such trifles, let's get some rest."

Mingluo shut up instantly, and for the 180th time, despised Frange in his heart. That guy transferred such an uncertain tigress to him as his personal bodyguard. He had absolutely no good intentions!

At the same time, the news in Talan City also spread to Wodo in the distance.

In the quiet mountain forest, the white deer lay lazily on the soft grass, and the elf girl lay quietly on its back, staring at the crescent moon in the sky.

She always wanted to wait for someone to come to see her in Wodo, as if even the time was slowed down by her thoughts.

It's just that human life seems to be really short, less than half a year, before you can let go of the things you once cared about, forget the promises you once made, and start a new life.

"Actually, even if he comes, it's impossible for us, isn't it?" She closed her eyes and whispered: "It's fine, it's fine..."
