It was said that girls were more precocious than boys. Who said that wasn't the case?

Ever since Little Mo Li's grandmother had made an oral engagement with Tian Jue, in addition to Mo Li's admiration and gratitude towards Tian Jue, Mo Li felt that she was now Tian Jue's person.

Little Mo Li watched Tian Jue leave with her eyes. With two or three steps, Tian Jue didn't look back, but instead reflected in Mo Li's mind. That longing began to spread from the day Tian Jue left.

The first night, Mo Li tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She simply sat up and borrowed the moonlight as she looked at the wild flowers given to her by Tian Jue. She thought back to every moment she spent with Tian Jue.

As she thought about Tian Jue's departure, tears unexpectedly appeared on her face as she mumbled to herself, "Although the red beans are cheap, don't throw them at the monarch. The next year, he would become a stranger and plant the seed to make porridge. Tian Jue, you cannot forget Mo Li. "

Tian Jue had only said that he would return, but there was no precise time.

Days passed, and the flowers gradually withered. However, Mo Li's protection was extremely good, so much so that not a single petal fell.

Although the flowers gradually withered, Mo Li's longing for them increased. Unlike the leaves in the forest, which would turn into soil when accumulated, it was more like the soil in the forest. As the fallen leaves accumulated, it became thicker and thicker.

It was another spring to autumn. The color of the mountains changed from white to green, from green to jagged, and from jagged to white.

As she grew older, Mo Li became more and more beautiful. Although the youngsters who saved up points were moved by her beauty, they all knew that Mo Li had a fiance who helped out their Liuhe Village, so none of them had any other intentions.

Ever since Tian Jue left, Mo Li would take out the flowers she hid in a box every night to look at them. Her movements were always very careful as she held them in her hands. This was probably her most precious object.

She also dreamt that at her perfect age, Tian Jue would return and openly marry her. That night, she covered her head with a red veil and bashfully sat in her room. Tian Jue gently lifted her head and sweetly said, "My wife."

She would be more shy, but she would be happy.

Time slowly passed. By now, four years after Tian Jue had left, Mo Li was still helping her grandmother during the day and looking at the withered flowers at night, she was especially happy whenever she saw them, especially thinking that it had been so long. Tian Jue should be back soon.

One day, a series of screams and cries for help came from the village. Grandma rushed into the house and pushed Mo Li into the cellar.

Mo Li looked doubtfully at her grandmother, who was crying as she said, "Little Li'er, no matter what you hear later, don't come out."

Mo Li had always listened to her grandmother. Although she didn't know what had happened, she still obediently stayed in the cellar.

Grandma Mo Li had used some straw and firewood to cover the entrance to the cellar. At that moment, she heard a loud noise coming from outside the door. She pushed open the door and walked out just in time to see two Western barbarians walk in with knives in their hands.

Grandma didn't beg for mercy, nor did she say anything. She didn't even utter a sound when she was hacked to death by the blade, afraid that Mo Li would charge out when she heard this.

The western barbarians turned the house upside down, taking away the captive chickens, ducks, cows, and sheep before leaving.

Mo Li stayed in the cellar and listened to the ruckus outside. However, she did not come out, and her grandmother did not let her out. After staying for five hours, Mo Li was starving.

"Grandmother, Grandmother, can Li'er come out now?" Mo Li continued after receiving no response:

"Grandma, Li'er is really hungry. She's going to come out soon."

After saying that, Mo Li walked out of the cellar. When she saw the chaos in the house, she couldn't help but frown.

It was already deep into the night. The bright moon hung high up in the sky, and the wind carried the smell of blood. Mo Li covered her nose, thinking that the neighboring houses might have killed something.

When she walked out of the room to look for Grandma, she saw a person lying on the ground under the moonlight. Wasn't that person Grandma Mo Li?

Mo Li panicked and ran over to Grandma. She hugged Grandma's cold corpse and shook it as she asked, "Grandma, what's wrong? "Grandmother!"

Under the condition that her grandmother was in, the panicking Mo Li didn't notice that her grandmother was lying in a pool of blood. When she regained her senses, Mo Li absentmindedly looked at the blood on the ground and muttered, "Blood, blood, quickly, someone come!" Who can save my grandmother? "

Mo Li cried out a few times. When no one responded, she rushed out of the courtyard, shouting as she ran. Seeing that the other party's door wasn't closed, she rushed into their courtyard, intending to call for his help.

When she entered the yard, she saw the family of four. The man was lying by the well in the small yard, and the two children were hanging from the laurel tree in the yard.

She watched in a daze, screaming as she ran towards another group of people, all of whom were dead except for the women.

Mo Li panicked as she ran into the village. As she ran into the village, she discovered that the village road was littered with corpses.

Suddenly hearing a few wolf howls, Mo Li was so scared that she hurriedly entered a house. She locked the door from the inside and slid down the seat with her back against the door. She started to cry.

She wished that she had just had a nightmare, but the ground was cold, the corpse was cold, and the pain was real. She could not help but believe in this.

After a long time, hearing that there was no sound from outside, she thought about going back to see her grandma. Maybe her grandma didn't die, or maybe …

Mo Li raised her head and used the moonlight to look at her bloodied and twisted face. In an instant, she was frightened and didn't know what to do. She hurriedly ran back to her own house while watching the door.

The entire village was dead. Mo Li hid in a corner of the house and cried. For a moment, she also wanted to die. She felt like she was suddenly alone in this world.

However, she thought of Tian Jue, her fiancé. Tian Jue had promised Mo Li that he would come back, and Mo Li herself had promised him that she would wait for him.

That night, Mo Li hastily buried her grandmother.

The next day, Mo Li wanted to go to the village and see if there was anyone like her who was still alive. She looked around and found many corpses that had been bitten and torn.

Mo Li did not find anyone who was still alive. In order to prevent the villagers from being ruined by animals, Mo Li decided to bury everyone in the village.

Mo Li buried hundreds of mouths for three whole days.

From then on, the wolves would still come often. Mo Li did not dare to cry, so she could only silently cry. Her longing for Tian Jue grew deeper and deeper.

How he wished that the man who had promised she would come back would suddenly come back to her and give her a chest to lean on and give her a sound to cry on.

Comforting her, hugging her.

She no longer needed to suffer day and night, no longer had to fear the wolves that would share her body, no longer had to fear disturbing that group of unknown people. All day long, she had to be afraid, and all night long, she silently wept.

What she was truly afraid of was not death. After death, Tian Jue had come to find her.
