Outside the small courtyard, Liu Qing was dressed in a refreshing dress, standing in the shadows, he was from the grassland, it was originally relatively dark, under the care of the yellow sand and scorching sun in the desert of the Western Regions, it is now even darker, like black charcoal, but compared with ordinary people, it is indeed a level of black, that kind of black, either the healthy black with bronzed skin, or the black and white of black and white.

Xiong Tuwei turned over and dismounted, and walked into the courtyard with very light steps, wherever he walked on weekdays, his footsteps were shocking, and his voice was like the wind, but today he was extra careful, on the one hand, because the general was seriously ill and should not be disturbed, on the other hand, because His Majesty the Emperor Li Yuanying was also there, and he knew that His Majesty was quiet.

Now that the Northern Wei Dynasty and Western Chu are at war, the four generals of the Zhenxi Army except for Xiong Tuwei are in the Chinese army, and the other three are all on the thirty-mile defense line that runs north and south.

Seeing the old acquaintance, Liu Qing grinned: "Brother Xiong!"

Xiong Tuwei was slightly stunned, looked at it carefully, and only then could he distinguish the silhouette of the other party from the dark shadows and see the appearance of the other party: "Brother Liu, your teeth are so white." ”

Liu Qing hurriedly covered a mouthful of big white teeth with her upper and lower lips, it is not without advantages that people are black, a mouthful of teeth is slightly brilliant, it gives people a dazzling white feeling.

"Brother Xiong, long time no see!" Liu Qing said.

"Brother Liu, long time no see. Xiong Tuwei said lightly.

This time it was Liu Qing's turn to be slightly stunned, Xiong Tuwei frowned a little twisted, seeing Liu Qing seemed to be a little unhappy, leaving the Zhenxi Army, the two had similarities in temperament, and they fought hotly, often wrestling in the martial arts field, and Xiong Tuwei was bold by nature and liked to make friends, especially Liu Qing, a young man with his temperament, he couldn't wait to kowtow and worship the handle, today?

"Brother Xiong, it seems that you are a little reluctant to see Liu Qing?"

Xiong Tuwei snorted: "Brother Liu, don't blame my brother for being small-minded, why did you appear in the Zhenxi Army at this time?"

At this time, Liu Qing's mind turned, and he suddenly realized, when is this time? The sensitive period of the world's war against Wei, and he, Liu Qing, is a grassland person: "Brother Xiong, I'm too worried, Liu Qing came here just to help, and there is no other purpose." ”

Xiong Tuwei nodded, he had heard about what Liu Qing experienced in the Western Regions, Murong Feng died in Junma Town, and the Western Regions were not expected to be in chaos, and Liu Qing was born out of nowhere, like a whirlwind blowing, which caused a lot of speculation in the Western Regions, thinking that Murong Feng had just left, and there was a demon king who wanted to dominate the Western Regions, but Liu Qing was not Murong Feng's kind of heroic character who divided one side, he was more like a ranger, doing things righteously, and people preferred to talk about his untidy and chaotic affairs, such as the one who likes to accept "godson" 's bandit mother-in-law, the girl next door to the small family Jasper, and the daughter of the Kunlun Gate, the first major sect in the Western Regions, have all had scandals with Liu Qing. Whenever he heard rumors about Liu Qing, Xiong Tuwei was annoyed, if a grassland man ruled the Western Regions, it would definitely not be a happy thing for the Zhenxi Army, he should have been left in the Zhenxi Army, or...... Kill!

"Brother Liu, you said to help, how much can this help be?" Xiong Tuwei narrowed his eyes.

Liu Qing smiled faintly: "As long as you don't deal with the grassland, you can help it to death." ”

He said it lightly and simply, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but Xiong Tuwei smiled happily and patted Liu Qing's shoulder: "He is worthy of being Xiong's good brother!"

Liu Qing grinned, revealing his big white teeth again.

"Uncle Hong!!" Li Yuanying shouted in the room.

Liu Qing popped out three feet away, and was about to step into the room with one foot, he seemed to understand something, and quietly retreated, sighing softly.

In the room, Li Yuanying held Hong Longjia's hand and kept calling, but the general of the Zhenxi Army lying on the bed closed his eyes tightly and passed away peacefully.

Hong Xiguan's eyes on the side were slightly red, his hands were clenched, the green tendons on his brows were exposed, his whole face was distorted and deformed, and he bit his back molars fiercely, so he didn't cry.

Xiong Tuwei stepped into the room and slammed his fist on the door frame, the whole room trembled, and the earth kept falling on the beams.

Hong Xiguan closed his eyes and sniffled: "Xiong Tuwei! Immediately gather the vanguard army, rush to Xueyong Pass, move to Xueyong Pass within three hours, block the eastward advance of the Western Chu army, and then order Yang Kaifeng, Zeng Xiangcai, and Chen Daikun to stay on the side, not to leave the army, if there is anyone who disobeys the military order, they will be dealt with by military law!"

He bowed his head and walked in front of Li Yuanying: "Your Majesty, my father said before his death that he hopes to be buried in Xueyong Pass." ”

Li Yuanying turned around and said, "Brother Hong, can I take Uncle Hong back to Tai'an City and bury them with Grandma and Uncle Zhao?"

Hong Xiguan hesitated: "Your Majesty, death is great, and it is better not to violate my father's wishes before his death." ”

Li Yuanying got up slowly, Hong Xiguan took a deep breath, wiped his tears vigorously, and didn't let the tears fall on Hong Longjia's body, after a person dies, he has to rush to the Western Elysium, his body is as light as a feather, he can fly thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye, and he can't stand the weight of tears, which is the concern of the living people, and it is the fetters that hinder the dead from leaving.

Carrying Hong Longjia on his back, Hong Xiguan walked out of the room, when he was a child, his father often carried himself, and occasionally rode in his neck, the two walked in the streets and alleys of Tai'an City, and his father told himself that this is the city you want to protect in the future, and the majesty and Hongda of Tai'an City came to his face, so that he couldn't help but want to cry.

He looked up at the sun hanging overhead, and the dazzling sunlight made him unable to open his eyes: "After going through spring, summer, autumn and winter, cold and summer, returning to the east and west, the north and south dipper are moving, Dad, we are leaving." ”

He can't remember when the relationship with his father was like fire and water, it was when the woman said goodbye, so many years of stalemate, so many years of cold war, in the end, one left, the other was not heard from, hey, I don't know how she is doing?

Walking on the road to Xueyong Pass in the west, Li Yuanying followed not far behind him, followed by Liu Qing, who pursed his mouth, and the horses that kept galloping past, hurried to Xueyong Pass, as if to explore the way for the general who died suddenly.

I don't know how long I walked, Hong Xiguan stumbled under his feet, he had just been seriously injured, and earth-shaking changes were taking place inside and out, and some couldn't support it.

Li Yuanying stretched out his hand to support his body: "Brother Hong, I'll come." ”

Hong Longjia transitioned from Hong Xiguan's back to Li Yuanying's back, as if a sleeping person transitioned from one bed to another, naturally.

In the last part of his life, Hong Xiguan and Li Yuanying sent half of them together.
