Chapter 16: A Belated Hero
"Luo Xiu, it's dangerous!" After Lu Jiaying and Chen Lianna followed, they saw that Luo Xiu was actually holding Wu Gaohan's collar and talking to him face to face, Lu Jiaying hurriedly shouted when he saw this.
"Don't come here. After Luo Xiu glanced at Lu Jiaying and the others, he continued to stare at Wu Gaohan.
"This..." Lu Jiaying took two steps forward worriedly, but was stopped by a hand, Lu Jiaying turned her head to look, and saw Chen Lianna silently shaking her head, she had no choice but to give up and look at Luo Xiu from a distance.
"Why? You are still sensible now, you still retain your humanity, why do you want to do such a thing, do you think that after your mother is resurrected, she will be happy to see that the price is the life of the whole city?" Luo Xiu raised his fist, did not borrow any strength, but just used the strength of his physical body to smash it on Wu Gaohan's face.
Wu Gaohan didn't use his luck to resist, he only relied on the strength of his own body to defend, and after this punch was smashed, a little blood spot appeared on Wu Gaohan's pale face.
He opened his mouth and smiled, then looked at Luo Xiu and said.
"You don't understand anything. ”
"What do you mean?" Luo Xiu was also very calm after smashing this punch, and he didn't drive his emotions because of this.
"You haven't experienced other people's things, so please don't stand on the moral high ground to reason with others, you don't have that qualification. Wu Gao looked at Luo Xiu coldly and indifferently, and his eyes couldn't show any emotion now.
"Okay, tell me your story, I'd like to hear it too. Luo Xiu stretched out his hand and let go of Wu Gaohan, then sat down cross-legged and said.
"Hmph, there's nothing to say, I've just been out of hell. Although Wu Gaohan said this, he also tidied up his collar, and then adjusted his sitting posture and said.
"I used to believe that good people have good rewards, but I later realized that it turned out that people were good and were bullied. Wu Gaohan's eyes gradually revealed anger.
"My father, who used to be a general, fought the battlefield to kill the enemy and deal with the monsters that threatened human life, but because of this, he was often seriously injured, so to speak, without a good skin on his body. Luo Xiu just watched him quietly, listening to him tell his story.
"Because my father was so beautiful, he was made a general, and he was loved by everyone, and I remember him touching my head and saying to me that you too wanted to be like your father. ”
"However, my father's success also aroused the dissatisfaction of the traitors, and several generals around my father were extremely dissatisfied with the status and glory that my father had obtained, and they designed to frame my father and make my father a traitor to mankind. When Wu Gaohan said this, he was already in a state of gritting his teeth.
"My father was about to be guillotined, my mother and I begged everywhere to find the truth, in order to clear my father's suspicions, but we ran into walls everywhere, no one was willing to help us, and the good buddies who used to call my father brothers and sisters saw us as if they had seen a disaster star, and turned us away. ”
"In the end, my father was beheaded in public, his head rolled from the stage to my feet, I picked up my father's head, my father's expression I will never forget for the rest of my life, I don't know why he was still smiling, I cremated my father's head and buried it on the mountain, my father was not even eligible to enter the Tomb of Heroes. Wu Gaohan angrily slammed his fist to the ground.
"After that, my mother and I were also expelled from the original city, forced to go to the deep mountains and old forests, but unexpectedly, that group of bastards actually chased them out and wanted to kill the two of us, my mother desperately stopped them and protected me from escaping, but I fell into the abyss. ”
"After that, I was already dead, but when my soul was floating at the bottom of the abyss, I met the Corpse King, who was sealed in the formation at that time, and he told me, release him, he will give me strength, give me the power of revenge, and also resurrect my mother. ”
"On that day, I made a pact with the Corpse King, and I gained great strength, crawled out of the abyss, found my mother, who had been brutally murdered, and used my strength to keep her body from rotting. Wu Gaohan raised his head and smiled at Luo Xiu.
"Haha, do you know what happened next? All those people died, whether it was the gang that framed my father, or the good brothers who sat idly by, that night, I slaughtered most of the people in the city, and some people tried to stop me, it was ridiculous, I had to send them to meet the villains. ”
"Finally, I dug up my father's skull in a deserted grave and took it with me, and then I went out of the city, set up a corpse on its periphery, and began to prepare for the resurrection of my mother, and the people of that city would not recognize my father's identity until death, they were all of the same kind of people, so it made sense for me to kill them. ”
"That's it, understand?" After finishing speaking, Wu Gaohan looked at Luo Xiu, he wanted to see something from Luo Xiu's face, even if it was anger or sympathy, he wanted to see a little emotion, but Luo Xiu was like a nobody, as if he had just heard the story of a dog dying and then burying the dog.
"It seems that I think too much, okay, you can do whatever you want, I don't have the strength to fight back now, you just seal the corpse king, I'm also tired and want to sleep." After Wu Gaohan finished speaking, he lay down directly, his body was very weak now, the divine power of the Holy Country Guide had already harmed his lifeline, if it weren't for the power of the Corpse King, he would have already turned into ashes.
"Lu Jiaying, you go and move the coffin that is placed behind the city. Luo Xiu got up silently and said to Lu Jiaying.
"What are you going to do? As I have already said, all sins are caused by me, and my parents have nothing to do with them, they are good people. Wu Gaohan panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and grabbed Luo Xiu's arm and said.
"I didn't expect you to be a demon too, you bastard, I won't let you go if I'm a ghost, stop, don't hurt my parents!" Wu Gaohan saw Lu Jiaying and Chen Lianna pull the coffin out, and after he tried his best, he staggered to his feet, grabbed Luo Xiu's shoulder and shouted.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt them, they're good people, they're heroes. Luo Xiu looked at the angry Wu Gaohan and said.
"Then what are you doing here?" Wu Gaohan asked.
"Hero, there should be a formal ceremony to say goodbye to heroes, heroes can't die unjustly, the city you are talking about is the Qingyang City in front of you. After Lu Jiaying and the others sent the coffin board to Luo Xiu, Luo Xiu reached out and touched the coffin board, at this time the frost of the coffin board had melted, but they could still feel a trace of coldness.
"Lu Jiaying, you go and call out the people of the whole city, and let them send the hero on his last journey. Luo Xiu said to Lu Jiaying.
"Why are you?" Wu Gaohan wondered.
"I won't say anything pretty, it's not right for you to kill those enemies, I understand your feelings about killing those enemies, but after revenge, please calm down, I believe that your parents are not willing to hurt that group of innocent people, and they don't want to sacrifice the lives of so many innocent people to resurrect, then won't they become real demons?" Luo Xiu patted Wu Gaohan on the shoulder and said.
At this time, the people of the city had slowly walked out, and although they did not know what was happening, they could only do it because it was an order from the army.
"Tell them your father's name out loud! Tell them that your father is a hero!" Luo Xiu saw that the people were almost out, so he said loudly to Wu Gaohan.
"My father's name is Wu Hongzhi, he is a hero! he is not a traitor!" Wu Gaohan said loudly to the group of humans.
"Wu... General Wu Hongzhi!" After that, the people in the city were silent for a long time, most of them did not know what was happening, but some gray-haired old men knelt down in front of the coffin.
Seeing this, the people around also hurriedly knelt down, and everyone shouted General Wu Hongzhi in unison, which was huge and alarmed the heavens and the earth.
"The old man has something to say. At this moment, Lu Jiaying walked over with an old man in her arms.
"Ah, General Wu Hongzhi, we finally see you, in fact, you have always been a hero, but you were killed by traitors, we all know this, but we are forced by the traitor's obscenity, and dare not correct your name, your desolate grave, we will go to see it every year, although you are long gone. The old man knelt down towards the coffin and said with tears in his eyes.
"Child, you have to be a man who stands up to the sky in the future, and you have to learn to protect everyone and protect humanity. In a trance, Wu Gaohan saw his father reach out and touch his hair and said.
"You will always be our greatest pride, and my mother also hopes that you will always be a useful person to the world and mankind in the future. Wu Gaohan's mother also said with a smile on the side.
"Thank you, Luo Xiu, I think it's time for me to leave the world with sins all over my body and go to my parents. Wu Gaohan's voice was a little choked, and the corners of his eyes, after so many years, were finally wet with his own tears.
