In the chaotic times of war, countries are constantly annexing each other and fighting each other. Even those in high positions cannot sleep peacefully.
In such a world, extravagance gradually became a trend among some noble children in various countries. They only cared about enjoying themselves every day, indulging themselves in wine all day long and enjoying themselves to the fullest.
One day, the Xia Kingdom was defeated by the Chen Kingdom. Upon hearing the news, the royal family, who had been living a life of luxury and debauchery, burst into tears and said, "The world is dark and gloomy. Our Xia Kingdom is doomed to fail. Alas!!"
Their gold, silver, jewelry, beautiful maids and concubines were all looted by the Chen army. They were naturally saddened that their lives were in danger.
But for the people of Xia State, these are not important. It is just a matter of paying taxes to a new official. In this uncertain world, what is important is to have a good harvest and have food to eat.
At the foot of a remote mountain in Xia State.
Dashi Village, at the entrance of the village.
Several children were gathered under a thick tree, listening to a tall boy standing on a big rock talking about what he had seen and heard at the market a few days ago.
"The official, armed with a knife, held up a notice and read it aloud, saying that from now on there would be no Xia Kingdom, and everyone would be Chen people."
"The officials were shackled and lined up in the street from beginning to end. One official collapsed while walking and was dragged away. Some ladies were locked in carts. There were cries everywhere."
"Brother Zhuzi, can you tell us more? Where were those officials and their wives taken?" a little boy asked curiously.
On the big rock, Zhuzi saw that the children were all looking at him and said proudly, "They were dragged to the market. People around said they would all be locked up."
"That……"
A few children gathered around and wanted to ask something when they heard a shout not far away.
"Brother, mother asked you to go back for dinner."
The person shouting was a chubby young girl. She was standing on the dirt road next to a big tree, with no expression on her chubby white face.
Zhuzi, who had been beaming with joy just now, changed his expression and stopped talking when he saw her appear. Several children who were listening to him also ran away.
Zhuzi slowly swallowed the big stone, walked to the girl, and scratched his head: "Erya, why are you here?"
Hearing the name, the girl's chubby little face twitched slightly, and she said, "I saw my mother was busy at home, so I came to find you for her."
"Oh! Then let's go back." Zhuzi said.
The girl looked at him without saying anything, then turned and walked home.
Her brother is a troublemaker. The reason he is so obedient now is because he pushed her into the water a few days ago and fell seriously ill. He was then beaten severely by his father.
The two siblings' home was a simple thatched courtyard.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I could see food on the small wooden table in the yard, and my parents were already sitting at the table.
The food on the table was not rich, just a few dry and hard steamed buns, a plate of vegetables, and soup with a few grains of rice floating in it.
But compared to other families in the village, this meal is pretty good.
The brother and sister sat on a wooden bench, and their mother, Mrs. Li, smiled and stuffed a steamed bun into their hands, telling them to eat it quickly.
Seeing this, his father Wang Shun said, "Mother, you should eat too, before the food gets cold."
When Mrs. Li heard this, she smiled and nodded, then sat down and started eating.
There are four people in the family. Except for Mrs. Li, who has a big appetite, the youngest girl also ate three steamed buns.
The rice in the bowl was eaten up in the blink of an eye.
After finishing his meal, Wang Shun, the head of the family, got up and went out to the fields to harvest crops. Li cleared the dishes and let the two siblings play by themselves.
When the girl saw her brother Wang Zhuzi running away, she went into the room to rest for a while.
After a few days in the mission world, she had completely adapted to the child's body and knew that if she didn't take a nap, she would be too sleepy to open her eyes at night.
She went into the room and lay on the hard wooden bed, thinking about the mission without feeling sleepy.
[Wang Erya's wish: to protect her father, mother, and brother and to live well.]
The original owner was an ordinary little girl who grew up in a small mountain village. Her biggest worry on weekdays was that her brother Wang Zhuzi bullied her and refused to play with her, and also called her a little fat girl.
Fortunately, her parents would stand up for her at home, and once she complained, her brother would not dare to bully her anymore.
Unfortunately, the original owner’s happy days did not last long.
The harvest was poor, so her father Wang Shun and other people in the village risked going up the mountain to hunt, but they encountered a wild boar and lost their lives. Their family's life began to change dramatically.
Without food to pay taxes, the family had to sell off their belongings and exhausted their savings.
Mother Li was suffering from hunger and cold and was seriously ill in bed. The original owner and his brother Zhuzi tried every possible way, but they could only watch their mother slowly die.
The two siblings buried their mother with great effort and took care of her funeral arrangements.
However, a plague broke out in the village, and the officers and soldiers sealed off the entire village, trapping everyone inside.
The last memories of the brother and sister were the huge fire and thick black smoke rising from the village.
The original owner was young and didn't know how everything happened. He just hoped to survive with his father, mother and brother.
She accepted the world's plot, but guessed a general idea from it.
This is a chaotic world. There is a legendary love story in which the male and female protagonists fight wits and courage for their respective families in this chaotic world. There are also ordinary people who are oppressed by various taxes in this chaotic world and lose their lives if they are not careful.
I would rather be a dog in peacetime than a man in troubled times.
The misfortunes of the original owner's family all stemmed from the unrest in this world.
Thinking about how the hero and heroine finally stayed together in the ending, but the world was still in chaos, she sighed deeply.
This task is not easy!
The little girl Wang Erya was thinking about the fate that she would try to change in the future. Her little body couldn't help but feel sleepy. On this hot summer afternoon, she fell asleep on the hard wooden bed.
Mrs. Li passed by the half-open window and looked at her daughter sleeping soundly on the bed, a smile appearing on her face.
The sun gradually set and the sunlight was not as strong anymore.
Wang Erya woke up from her nap on the wooden bed. She stood up, rubbed her eyes, and got out of bed. She went out and said to Li, "Mom, I'm going out to play in the village."
Li wanted to say a few more words of advice, but when she looked up, the person was gone.
"This child." She shook her head helplessly.
On the other hand, Wang Erya, who had just gone out, naturally did not go out to find other children to play with.
She walked up the mountain along a secluded path in the village and came to a rapid stream in the mountains.
Few people pass by here. It is quiet and secluded, very suitable for practicing internal strength.
Wang Erya found a big rock and sat cross-legged, and began to practice the Green Water Technique. A weak internal energy flowed slowly in her body with her breathing.
The sound of flowing water was endless. She felt the mist in the air, and the Green Water Technique also ran a little faster.
