CHAPTER XXII

Qi Fang walked next to Xu Hui, stuck the gun on the ground, and sat down casually. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Seeing that Xu Hui was still looking in the direction of the prisoner, he swept to the unguarded door, and after a little thought, his heart was like a mirror, and he asked, "The first time to do it?" ā€

"Not bad."

Seeing that Xu Hui was silent for a long time before these two words burst out from between his teeth, Qi Fang smiled and said, "It's really difficult for you to encounter this kind of thing for the first time." ā€

Sensing the unusual meaning revealed between his words, Xu Hui turned his face sideways, looked at Qi Fang, and asked with a little curiosity: "You have also done this kind of thing?" ā€

Qi Fang nodded, and said very naturally: "It is true that the families surnamed Wu and the surname Qiao have always been committed to interfering in the affairs of the north, but no one wants to take over the mess of Yanmen. The food and salary of the soldiers at the border pass, the consumption of military training, and the attack of the Hu people every time they resisted each time, etc., all required a lot of money and food. For those families who control the government, whether there is an accident in Yanmen County or not, whether there is a beacon fire in the north has nothing to do with them. Anyway, they prefer to be in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as they rely on natural danger to defend Jianghuai and Jingxiang, they will not be affected for a while. ā€

Speaking of this, Qi Fang's voice was a little angry, but he quickly lowered: "Father has no choice but to lead the troops to take the initiative to attack and loot the Hu people to maintain consumption." The officers and soldiers of Yanmen are said to be officers and soldiers, but they are not much different from bandits. ā€

Looking at Qi Fang's still somewhat childish face, Xu Hui was silent again.

Maybe it's too young, juvenile, and can't hide too many things; Maybe it's because in his eyes, she is a woman, a few years younger than him, and she doesn't need to be taboo too much; Or maybe his emotions fluctuated during this period of time, and he urgently needed a place to vent, so he actually told the words buried in his heart.

The so-called sons of the family, Xu Hui has seen too much, even if the inside is filthy and dirty, their appearance is also glorious, and they can't see anything wrong. Compared to them, Qi Fang seemed too upright and sincere, which was indeed incompatible with the family's ethos.

Since the other party told the truth, Xu Hui no longer concealed it, not to mention that at this time, she also needed someone to confide in: "Although my grandfather has repeatedly taught me, don't have the kindness of a woman, and make the most correct judgment on all occasions." But I've been wondering just now, is my approach really correct? Or am I just making up a high-sounding excuse to have a reason to be at ease? When I made this judgment, in addition to the pain, I was also a little glad in my heart - I was glad that I was born in the Xu clan of the Shangdang family, and I was loved and protected, and as long as I worked hard, I would not fall into the fate of despair, helplessness, and slaughter like them. How selfish and despicable is this kind of thinking? Obviously the culprit responsible for their deaths, but ......"

Hearing her voice trembling a little, there was also a tear in his eyes, Qi Fang didn't know how to persuade for a while, he thought about it, and then whispered to Xu Hui: "I have lived in the tribe of the Huns for more than three months. ā€

Seeing Xu Hui looking at him in surprise, Qi Fang showed a sly smile that belonged to a young man: "Didn't I say it, I like to pester my second brother since I was a child and let him secretly take me out to play." When he was a little older, he followed his second brother every day and went out of Yanmen Pass with him to kill Hu Ren. Once, we pursued too far with the victory, lost our way, and got separated from everyone because of the wind and sand. The second brother could speak Xiongnu dialect, but I couldn't, so he ordered me to pretend to be a little dumb, and attacked a few lone Hun horse thieves, changed into their clothes, and then went to the Huns or Hu Shang to ask for directions. Because we were too tired, the second brother fell ill halfway through, and it was a kind Hun family that saved us. ā€

Speaking of this, the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by heaviness and nostalgia: "Once the Hu people invade, Yanmen County will bear the brunt, but almost all the people of Yanmen have relatives who died tragically in the hands of the Hu people." The sea of blood is full of hatred, even if it is looted or even slaughtered, there is no need for any guilt at all. Young adults are the main force of the Hu people and should be killed; Children are the hope of the Hu people, and they should be killed; Women are the foundation of reproduction, and they should be killed; The old man is the inheritor of wisdom, and an experienced old man can avoid the fate of the destruction of a tribe, and he can't let it go. My brothers and I were born in this environment, and everyone around me was in this way, so naturally I don't think it's strange. But since the family saw that we were Han Chinese, but they took good care of our brothers and allowed us to survive, we ......"

Xu Hui looked at Qi Fang quietly, and clearly saw that there were already tears in the corners of his eyes.

"I'm too young to question my father, but my second brother is not. He stiffened his neck and asked Father, Hu people are also people, why do we have to do such a desperate job. Father picked up the whip and whipped him so hard that he was covered in blood, and my mother watched from the sidelines, even though our brothers and sisters were all pleading for mercy, but we didn't say anything. Probably because he felt that it was very embarrassing to cry in front of a girl younger than himself, Qi Fang turned his face away, wiped his eyes with his sleeve indiscriminately, and then said with some embarrassment, "After beating the second brother, my father asked me, do you think the same way, I was scared in my heart, shook my head indiscriminately, and my father dropped the whip and left." That day, my father sat in the study for a night, his eyes were red, but he couldn't close his eyes. ā€

After the father left, the mother stepped forward, hugged the second brother, and said softly, there is only a result of war, there is no right or wrong. Of course, this is true, but we must not forget that the Hu people are our enemies. 'Enemy' and 'man' are inherently different and should not be confused. ā€

When Xu Hui heard this, he couldn't help muttering: "War has only results, there is no right or wrong...... Mrs. Qi Fujun is really a strange woman. ā€

Hearing her words, Qi Fang immediately laughed: "Twenty years ago, Lord Xu Fujun said that Auntie was just borrowing. ā€

Grandfather said? Then it is not surprising. It's just that my grandfather must not have said this in public, otherwise it would have been recorded by worshippers and spread all over the world, but if it was a private occasion...... Where did Mrs. Qi find out?

Speaking of which, because the three families all despise Qi Zhong, and Yanmen County is too dangerous, few people will go there deliberately, and the Qi family has never been to other places. What kind of background Mrs. Qi is and what she looks like, no one really knows, isn't it......

Before Xu Hui could figure it out, a sharp cry pierced the silent night, and the Xu clan, who was resting, heard the sound, and took out the weapons in their hands and rushed out, and the two guards who were supposed to "leave" also took two or three pieces of firewood that were burning and threw them on the corner of the firewood room, which was drenched with all the grease of the Tiger Village.

The blazing fire, in an instant, illuminated the dark night.

Xu Hui slowly stood up, looking at the increasingly scorching flames, his eyes swept away the confusion and pain in the past, and became more determined. She didn't look back, just said calmly: "Qi Fang, let's make an agreement!" ā€

"Promise? What conventions? ā€

"Ten years from now, if nothing happens to you and me, we will get together, or fight." Xu Hui raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice was full of confidence and strength, "I saw how you and I have grown up at that time, and the wish in my heart has changed, how about it?" ā€

Qi Fang also stood up, clenched his love gun, and smiled confidently: "Okay!" ā€
