Chapter 84
Ayouduo snorted clearly, turned and walked towards the tent.

Lifting the curtain of the tent, she shouted inside: "Grandma! Grandma! I brought Azan back!"

The furnishings in the tent are very simple. There is a fire stove in the middle, and a Buddha statue is enshrined behind the stove. The floor of the tent is covered with gray sheepskin. A woman about forty years old is kneading the animal skin.

Without raising her head, the woman said, "A Duo, you are daydreaming again, hurry up and boil some highland barley noodles. Grandma has made buttered tea for you."

Ayouduo tiptoed to widen the curtain, so that everyone at the door could be seen in front of the woman.

"Mom, look! This time it's real!"

Sighing in her heart that her daughter was dreaming again, the woman looked up helplessly and dotingly as she said, and she was stunned for a moment when she saw the crowd crowded at the tent door.

She hadn't seen a Han person for more than a year, and she was a little overwhelmed by so many strange faces all at once.

Standing at the front, Jiang Ping bowed his fists to the woman and said, "Auntie, we are a caravan from Qinzhou. We met Miss Ayouduo on the road just now, and we were invited to come here to rest for a while."

He was polite enough, but the other party still didn't reply in a daze.

It was Ayouduo who explained next to her: "My grandma has bad ears, you have to call her louder to hear clearly."

Then she repeated Jiang Ping's words aloud, and the woman nodded to show that she understood.

"The guests come from afar, and we really have nothing to entertain, why don't we have a cup of butter tea." Her Chinese is much more fluent than A Youduo's.

As he spoke, he was about to stand up and fetch tea bowls for everyone.

Ayouduo grabbed Grandma's arm and led her outside the tent, saying as she walked, "Oh, don't worry about them, Azan is right outside!"

After leaving the tent, Ayouduo pointed at Xiaoxun and said loudly, "Look, is it Azan?"

The moment she saw Xiaoxun, the woman froze, and then her body trembled again.

She staggered up to Xiaoxun, her eyes dim with tears: "Azan, is it really you? You're finally back!"

Compared to the woman's excitement, Xiaoxun was calm to the point of indifference.

He crossed his arms and said in a calm voice, "My name is not Azan."

Seeing his body language showing resistance, Xiao Ruo's little hand secretly caressed Xiao Xun's arm in a small way, she knew that the puppy was nervous and restless at the moment.

"Ah Xun, maybe she really knows you, shall we listen to her first?" She said softly beside Xiao Xun.

Xiaoxun's heart is complicated, he really wants to know his past, but not at this moment, not in front of Xiaoruo to be exposed to the past.

The fragmented fragments I recalled before are mostly dark and painful, with little light and happiness.

There was a trace of fear in his heart, fearing that his past was unbearable and disgusting, he didn't want such a self to be exposed naked in front of Xiaoruo.

Xiaoruo understands him so well, she can easily feel his resistance, her soft little hands imitate the movement of smoothing hair to comfort Xiaoxun, making him unable to say words of rejection.

Ayouduo's mother was tearful and choked up and said, "Yes, your name is not Azan, but Gu Qingang. Your father's name is to hope that you will be hardworking and upright, like the Big Dipper in the sky, and Azan is just us. Calling you by your nickname..."

As she said that, she couldn't help covering her face and sobbing: "Wuuuuu...Tang La bless...your father is alive in heaven, he can finally rest..."

Hearing her mention of her father, Xiaoxun couldn't help but ask, "You know my father? He already..."

He couldn't speak anymore, the soreness in his nasal cavity oppressed his throat, and his eye sockets were scarlet as if they were burning.

Ayouduo supported her grandma's arm and said, "Let's go into the tent and talk, my grandma is not in good health and can't blow the wind for too long."

After finishing speaking, she helped the woman into the white tent slowly, Xiaoruo and Xiaoxun followed behind them.

The others tactfully gave space to the four of them, none of them entered the tent, and only rested on the grass or in the carriage around the tent.

In the tent, Ayouduo sat on the sheepskin cushion with her crying and trembling mother, stroking her back from top to bottom.

After a long time, the woman finally restrained herself. She was really not physically fit. After crying like this, her spirit was exhausted. She could only sit paralyzed, staring at Xiaoxun who was sitting across from her.

The pity and kindness in her eyes made Xiaoxun's original inner resistance gradually disappear without a trace.

I should have been stared at like this before.Xiao Xun thought.

Xiao Ruo sat next to Xiao Xun, and the two held hands all the time, conveying the warmth of their palms to Xiao Xun, as well as invisible support.

Picking and choosing words, Xiaoruo said carefully, "Auntie...I'll call you Auntie. My name is Xiaoruo, Axun...that's Azan. I picked it up on the mountain in my hometown a year ago."

"He was so badly injured that he couldn't speak, he couldn't remember anything, he didn't even remember his name."

As she talked, Xiao Ruo seemed to have returned to a year ago, Gou Zi was still a little boy who was half a head shorter than her, covered in injuries and shivering.

"I named him Xiaoxun. Later I took him to the doctor, who said he was poisoned."

"It was precisely because of that strange poison that his figure and appearance were changed. He was only so tall at that time."

She gestured to the height of her ears.

The woman nodded and said, "No wonder we have searched for it for so long but there is no news about Azan. It turns out that he was poisoned and changed his appearance..."

"Azan is the child of our benefactor. If you save him, you are doing us Chaduo a favor. Girl Xiaoruo, I thank you for our entire Chaduo."

As she spoke, she struggled to sit up and salute Xiaoruo, but Ayouduo and Xiaoruo hurriedly stopped her together.

Xiaoruo said: "Axun is my family now, and there is no way to talk about kindness. It's just that he hasn't completely recovered his memory so far. Auntie, can you tell us what happened in the past?"

"Hey, it's been three years since this happened..."

Speaking of the past, the woman's eyes gradually blurred, and as she told, the four people in the tent fell into her memories together.

"Azan was sent here by his father at Chaduo when he was 13 years old, because there used to be a very powerful horse hunting master here, who could find all the wild horses on the grassland, and bring them back to be domesticated. "

"Azan's father hoped that his son could learn this skill, so he asked one of his soldiers to bring Azan to Chaduo to learn from him. He himself would bring his wife to reunite with Azan for a few days only during Chinese New Year."

"Azan is very smart, hardworking and sincere. The master loves him very much, and he said that he would pass on all his unique skills to Azan."

"At that time, there was a small tribe next to our tribe. They wandered around Chaduo all day long. Instead of herding cattle and sheep, they only wanted to dig meat from Chaduo to eat."

"The master's skill of hunting horses and their leaders have been envious for a long time. In order to learn this skill, he sent his youngest son to the master more than once to learn the skill. The master would drive that kid out every time, without teaching him any skills. he."

"Those people came down again and again, and those people held a grudge against Azan, thinking that Azan took what they could have had."

"One night three years ago, together with the Han people who came from nowhere, they stunned most of the Chaduo people with drugs, stole our yaks and sheep, and even kidnapped Azan!"

"When we woke up the next day, there was only an empty tent, and there was still a breathless master."

"We hurriedly told Azan's father the news of Azan's kidnapping, but Azan's father was a general stationed in Mobei and could not leave the barracks at will. Only Azan's mother and a few soldiers came to Chaduo to look for Azan news."

"They searched for a long, long time, and only the news that the thieves were Han Chinese was revealed in the master's last words. Azan's mother was sad and overworked, and she didn't survive the snowstorm in Tangla Mountain when she was young..."

"A year ago, Azan's father also resigned and came to Chaduo to continue looking for news about Azan. But the news has not been found, and instead encountered an avalanche that is rare in a century."

"In that avalanche, Azan's father rescued more than a dozen children from Chaduo's family. Azan's father also dug Azan out of the snow with his bare hands...but in the end, he himself did not escape...by the avalanche of snow... A block hit..."

At this point, she finally couldn't help crying again.

"Azan's father... sleeps forever in Qingtangla Mountain..."
