The next day, Lin Mengya found that Huo Xiao was no longer hiding from her, but his attitude was much more polite than before.
She had asked Wu Ying a few times, but unfortunately, even Wu Ying did not know what was wrong with his brother.
But after seeing the wounded, Lin Mengya also understood that Huo Xiao was probably still blaming himself.
Although his condition was getting better day by day, Wang Yan had a high fever because of the infection of the wound.
"It's been three days. If the fever doesn't go down, will he …"
Wu Ying was so anxious that a series of big blisters appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Compared to the others, he was more worried about Wang Yan.
When the brothers first came to the mountain, if they had not treated each other with sincerity, they would have died in the hands of the former head of the family.
Looking at his blood brother's dying appearance, of course, he was anxious.
"Wait a little longer. What did Miss Gong say?"
Huo Xiao was also frowning, sitting at the head of his brother's bed and asked in a low voice.
"Miss Gong said that she is missing a few herbs. She has already sent people to search for them. But can the Great Yan hold on until her people bring back the medicine?"
Even though Wu Ying and Huo Xiao were burning with anxiety, they did not give Lin Mengya too much pressure.
After all, there were so many wounded in the camp, and these days they could only survive because of her support and treatment.
This was her kindness. They could accept it, but they could not ask for it with a clear conscience.
When Lin Mengya opened the door with a bowl of medicine, the two men quickly looked at each other, suppressed their anxiety, and tried to treat her with the most ordinary attitude.
"Don't worry too much. Wang Yan's physical fitness is good. I think he has a great chance to survive."
Lin Mengya sighed in her heart.
The two men's brows were so tight that they could almost kill a fly. They thought they could deceive her.
Huo Xiao rubbed his forehead.
"I hope he can live up to our expectations."
After a moment of silence, he made a very difficult decision.
"Miss Gong, I want to know what's going on outside. Can you tell me about it?"
Lin Mengya nodded, thinking that he wanted to know the situation of those who ambushed him.
But this time, Huo Xiao wanted to talk to her alone outside.
She helped Huo Xiao to a secluded spot outside and briefly introduced him to the surrounding towns. However, she realized that Huo Xiao did not listen to a single word she said.
"Brother Huo? Brother Huo? "
She waved her hand in front of his eyes, and he looked at her as if he had just come back to his senses.
"Is there something on your mind?" she asked kindly.
Huo Xiao shook his head reflexively, but then he stiffened for a moment and nodded reluctantly.
"Can I help?"
In fact, if Huo Xiao didn't want her help, he wouldn't have come with her with such a lame excuse.
However, for some reason, that person hesitated for a long time and was unable to speak.
Lin Mengya didn't want to urge him, so she stayed silent with him.
Huo Xiao's gaze seemed to drift far away, but it also seemed to land on the campsite.
Just when Lin Mengya thought that he might not say anything today, the man suddenly asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you help me deliver a letter?"
"Where to?" she asked in confusion.
Huo Xiao put his hand into his bosom, and after a long time, he took out a jade pendant.
"Deliver this to the Fang family."
For a moment, Lin Mengya didn't even know what to say.
This jade pendant was the one that Long Tianhao had brought when he came to look for someone.
She had thought that Huo Xiao might have thrown it away, but she didn't expect that he had been carrying it with him.
As Huo Xiao's companion, she knew very well that Huo Xiao hated his biological mother.
But now, he wanted her to deliver a jade pendant to the Fang family.
"This is the memory your mother left for you. Brother Huo, you don't have to force yourself."
But Huo Xiao shook his head with a bitter smile.
"My dignity is not as important as my brother's life. What's more, so many years have passed. This thing may have been forgotten. "
His tone was full of self-mockery.
He was a man who was abandoned by his biological mother. Even when the Huo family was destroyed, that woman didn't appear.
He should have given up on the so-called motherly love a long time ago.
But Lin Mengya said thoughtfully, "Although I don't know about the past between you and your mother, I think as a mother, she must still miss you. Brother Huo, if you really can't let it go, why don't you meet her? "
"What can I do even if I meet her?"
This was the first time that Huo Xiao showed such an aggressive side in front of her.
He was like a hedgehog whose soft abdomen had been hurt. He raised his spikes defensively and would stab anyone who approached him indiscriminately.
"She didn't care about me at the beginning. Do you think that I really didn't beg her after the Huo family was destroyed?
But what did I see? She wore a wedding dress and married someone else in a grand way!
My father's blood is still warm! Is she so impatient? Can't she, can't she wait a little longer? "
In the end, Huo Xiao's voice was choked with sobs.
His crimson eyes were filled with endless sorrow and pain.
The pain of being betrayed by his loved ones had long torn apart his twisted life.
Even before his father's death, he was still thinking about the woman who had completely abandoned them.
This made it even more impossible for him to forgive that woman, and he couldn't forgive himself, who was still hoping to get lucky!
"I'm sorry, I really couldn't control myself."
After venting, Huo Xiao realized that he had vented his anger on someone else. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty and annoyed.
But Lin Mengya shook her head gently.
"I understand the pain in your heart."
She picked up the jade pendant that had fallen to the ground and wiped the dust off it.
"I will help you pass this jade pendant to your mother. As for whether you want to see her or not, it's up to you. But even if she doesn't help us, I will do my best to save Wang Yan. "
"Thank you."
Huo Xiao looked at her with mixed feelings. After a long time, he could only force out a word of thanks.
Lin Mengya waved her hand.
"We're friends. There's no need to be polite."
Huo Xiao lowered his head and thought about her words over and over again while he sorted out his emotions.
Friends. Just friends made him feel an uncontrollable greed.
If the delusion in his heart could be satisfied, then would she be able to erase the pain that his mother brought to him?
Lin Mengya, who met the Blind Grandma again, seemed a little worried.
As usual, the Blind Grandma had brought two people with her. They had been waiting for her in the same place for a long time.
After these few interactions, they had gradually become familiar with her.
Although they were in a hurry every time and didn't say a few words, they were even more grateful to Lin Mengya.
She was very grateful to them.
But this time, Lin Mengya didn't leave with the jade pendant.
"Blind Grandma, do you know the Fang family?"
As soon as her voice fell, the three people opposite her seemed to be startled. They all froze on the spot.
After a long time, the Blind Grandma came back to her senses. For some reason, she sounded a little panicked.
"The Fang family? Which Fang family? "
Lin Mengya was even more certain that the Blind Grandma knew the Fang family.
"How many distinguished families in the Upper Flux Clan are the Fang family?"
She even felt that the Blind Grandma was not smart at all to ask a question that she already knew the answer to.
The Blind Grandma also realized it. She sighed deeply.
"Why are you looking for the Fang family?"
She took out the jade pendant given to her by Huo Xiao.
At that moment, she felt the Blind Grandma's body suddenly tremble.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
In fact, she had already guessed some things. But now was not the best time to confess.
"What, what does this mean?" The Blind Grandma asked nervously, which was rare for her.
Lin Mengya looked down. She didn't want to give this poor woman too much pressure.
"This was given to me by Brother Huo Xiao, the leader of the fortune-teller. He said that he hoped that I could return this thing to the Fang family. If you know it, please help me to give it to him. "
The Blind Grandma didn't dare to take it.
She even took a few steps back.
"No, I don't know this thing. Tell him that he can't give it to the Fang family. "
The Blind Grandma seemed to have a thousand words in her heart, but she didn't know how to say them.
Although Lin Mengya couldn't see her expression, she could imagine that the Blind Grandma was panicking.
"Miss, do you know it?"
Suddenly, the Blind Grandma grasped her hand excitedly.
"No, he can't know it. Miss, please help me! Can you help me? "
The Blind Grandma's companions were also shocked. They quickly pulled the Blind Grandma over and comforted her in a low voice.
Lin Mengya also felt sorry for them.
These days, the Blind Grandma and the others had to go back and forth to deliver things to them every day. Their hard work couldn't be explained in just a few words.
She didn't think that she was a heartless person, but she couldn't make some decisions for them.
There were some things that only they could explain to her.
"I didn't tell them. It's just that you can't solve any problem by running away. I'm very grateful for your help, but if you want to make up for it, the first step is to let them know your sincerity. Only sincerity can exchange for sincerity. "
From the selfless dedication of the Blind Old Lady and her companions, to the fact that they couldn't help asking her about the Bo Ren every time, Lin Mengya had an accurate guess of their identity and purpose by deceiving herself.
Rules couldn't isolate people's hearts, nor could they cut off their true feelings.
Although many years had passed, they still missed their children and loved ones in their hearts.
However, they had to compromise because of the threat of their families and the Elders' Council.
At the same time, they were also scarred by their longing and guilt.
She was very clear that once there was a chance to break out, these people would no longer be silent puppets.
When the countless small streams finally converged into a powerful torrent, the Elders Guild would have to swallow this bitter fruit that they had brewed themselves.
Those cold-blooded and heartless people knew nothing about the hidden power of "love"!
