Chapter 22: Parting

I have to say that Shi Cundao is an old soldier of Rong Ma after all, and he mobilized his morale in just a few words before the arrival of the strong enemy.

Everyone agreed to prepare separately, and Shi Cundao suddenly said: "Wait, there is one more thing to do before that." ”

Shi Chi said: "Please ask my father to command." ”

Shi Cundao paused, and said slowly: "Life and death in this battle are unknown, you ...... your family It's all arranged. ”

Shi Chi said: "What does my father mean? ”

Shi Cundao paused, seemingly a little embarrassed, and finally said, "I mean let them go out and avoid it." ”

The three brothers of the Shi family, you look at me, I look at you, they are all gloomy, everyone understands that Shi Cundao said this, it is because he is not sure about this battle, although he is ready to die and break the net, but as the head of the family, he can't ignore other considerations, the sons are born and die with themselves, and they can't let them have worries.

Shi Cun said: "The three of you go back and clean up, if you ask, you might as well tell the truth, just tell my daughters-in-law that it is the old man who has caused you trouble." ”

Shi Chi said jerkyly: "What is my father talking about?" ”

Shi Cundao ignored him and continued: "In order to avoid being eye-catching, except for my three daughters-in-law and Di Jia, I don't bring any of my mother-in-law and maids, and my things are mainly streamlined. ”

I remembered a stubble: "Grandpa, we don't even have horses in our house." ”

Shi Cundao was silent, but clenched his fists...... Seeing this, Stilyan hurriedly said, "I'll call someone to hire a car." ”

Shi Cundao smiled desolately: "Who would have thought that our Shi family also has today? ”

Shi Chi said cautiously: "Father, I don't know where to let them go?" ”

Shi Cundao thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "The third child! ”

Shi Dong was taken aback: "Huh? ”

Shi Cundao stared at him and said, "Don't you have a mansion in the countryside?" ”

Shi Dong was embarrassed, and said, "I didn't expect my father to already know......"

Shi Cundao snorted and said, "How long do you think you can hide it from me?" ”

Shi Dong hurriedly knelt down and said, "The child is at fault!" ”

Shi Cundao sighed and said, "Get up, I know that you are also eager to ask for a son, so you didn't say anything." At the end, he asked with a smile, "Is there any movement in that Guizhi's stomach?" ”

Shi Dong got up and sighed: "I haven't ...... yet"

Shi Cun said: "Just let you search for the second sister-in-law and go there to avoid them." ”

Shi Dong bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

Shi Cundao smiled bitterly: "Wei Wuji is very sparse, and the guizhi is not counted in the thirteen bloody handprints. ”

Shi Dong didn't know what to say...... The arrangements were made, and everyone was about to split up, when Shi Cundao suddenly said: "Gorou, you can go too." ”

I wondered, "Me? Where to? ”

Shi Cun said: "Follow your mother and them to the countryside." ”

I was surprised, "Why? ”

The three brothers of the Shi family, who had just walked to the door, turned around together when they heard this, and Shi Chi said with a complicated expression: "Father, this is not appropriate, right?" ”

Shi Cundao said expressionlessly: "There's nothing inappropriate, so it's decided." ”

I said again, "Why?" Don't say this has nothing to do with me, that kid from Wei Wou-Ki has pressed my bloody handprint on the door. ”

Shi Cundao said lightly: "The Shi family has to keep a seed, right?" ”

I laughed and said, "Then why me, I'm not a stallion." I grabbed Stitch's hand and said, "How is he?" ”

Stitch shook me off and said, "What are you me for?" ”

Shi Cundao glanced around at everyone and said slowly: "Who has an opinion on my decision?" Or whoever wants to go together, I will not force it. ”

No one spoke...... I know that Lao Shi has no bottom in his heart about this battle, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, he is obviously afraid that the Shi family will be wiped out and will be extinct and he will leave a seeder, as for why I was chosen, I somewhat understand.

I hurriedly said, "Grandpa, if you let me stay, I can at least help you." ”

Shi Cundao shook his head and said: "Even if you are already in the early stage of the sword master, it will not help to have more of you and less of you, your biggest responsibility now is to temporarily avoid the limelight of the enemy and keep the incense of my Shi family." ”

Stilyan said, "Grandpa is right. He took my hand and said, "Fifth brother, you have too little experience in facing the enemy, and staying will not help much." ”

I said, "That's why I should exercise more, and now you're forming a group to farm the boss, isn't it a good opportunity?" Big brother, why don't you leave and I'll stay? ”

Stilyan laughed, "What stupid thing to say? ”

I said to Stilwell again, "Haven't you always looked at me unpleasantly?" Why don't we change it? ”

Stilwell sneered, and said in a strange manner: "I don't dare, you are the genius of our Shi family, if we all die, we have to count on you to avenge us." ”

Shi Cundao said angrily: "! If you don't want to die, get out of here! ”

Stilwell also felt that this was a bit excessive, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "My grandson said the wrong thing, please punish my grandfather." ”

Shi Cundao glared at him, came to me, and said earnestly: "Wulang, the reason why I let you go is not because of how talented you are, nor because of how fast you are progressing, but because you are the youngest child of our Shi family, even if you are still the same Wulang who couldn't cultivate sword qi before, I still want you to go!" ”

This sentence made my heart hot, and I couldn't help blurting out: "Grandpa, I'm sure to deal with Wei Wuji!" ”

Shi Cundao patted me twice on the shoulder and said: "Don't be rash, let's go, your mother and your aunt also need someone to protect them, if something happens to us, you are the last man in the Shi family, and they will all rely on you." ”

"This ......" I didn't expect this, Shi Fei and Shi Dong both came to me and said solemnly: "Goro, please." The implication is to support the orphan.

I stomped my feet and said, "Uncles, don't worry, I'll come back after sending my two aunts to the place." ”

Shi Cundao said solemnly: "No, you are not allowed to come back without my order, if I don't send someone to look for you before dark, you will take them to a place where others can't find you and live in seclusion, as for revenge, as for revenge, ......" Shi Cundao smiled bitterly, "Then don't think about it, when you really become a sword saint, Wei Wuji is afraid that he will already be in the ground, people live for a lifetime, and those who live for a hundred years, at my age, I will see it, what grievances and grievances are just a floating cloud." ”

I sighed with emotion: "Actually, the gods and horses are all floating clouds. ”

Shi Cundao waved his hand weakly: "Let's go, we will gather here after we finish our respective affairs." ”

It was like a parting of life and death, and everyone retreated with solemn faces. Outside, Shi Fei and Shi Dong entrusted me again and again, and then they decided to leave, and Stilyan's brothers also shook hands with me and said goodbye, only Stilwell hid to the side, his expression flickering.

On the way back, Shi Chi and I walked side by side, silent for a moment, and then said: "Di Zai, don't take your second brother's words to heart, sometimes it is far more difficult to endure humiliation than to die calmly, don't forget the burden on your shoulders after you leave, don't lose a big one because of a small one." ”

I understood that he was worried that I would be stimulated and not return halfway, which would cause Shi Cundao's hard work to be in vain, and said: "I don't have the same knowledge as him, Dad, don't worry, I won't think about avenging you, I will take revenge on the spot." ”

Shi Chi stopped and said gloomily: "Parting is imminent, Dad has nothing to give you, I just found out now that I have never given you anything except for a congenitally deficient body, I used to always be evil to you, you won't hate me, right?" ”

Although he is not my own father, these heartfelt words made me a little uncomfortable, and I deliberately waved my hand with a big grin: "How can anyone who hates his father when he is a son, don't think about it, go and say goodbye to my mother." ”

Shi Chi beat me on the chest, ran to the back house, looked at his back, I decided, for what he just said, I must also protect the Shi family!

When I returned to the courtyard, I instructed Green Calyx: "Pack up your things and come with me." ”

Green Calyx was startled and said, "Are you running away from home again?" ”

"It's almost, but this time I'm taking my mother and them with me." As soon as I told me what had happened, the green calyx quickly packed up a bag of silver and handed it to me, saying, "Then you should hurry up." ”

I looked at her and said, "What do you mean, you can go with you." ”

The green calyx bit her lip and said, "Didn't the old lady say that outsiders don't bring anything?" I'm still not going, am I? ”

I pinched her nose and said, "Less nonsense, are you an outsider?" ”

The green calyx's eyes were red and said: "The young master has this heart, I am content, but a few wives don't bring anyone, what is it if I go?" ”

"Don't grind, hurry up!"

"Good!" The green calyx flicked his arm and carried the bag onto his shoulder...... I laughed and said, "This is like your style, what kind of grudge sect to learn?" ”

Green Calyx said: "If you can't sit in the car for a while, I'll run behind your ass." ”

“…… Don't worry, even if I run, I won't let you run. ”

Bringing the green calyx is a decision I have made a long time ago, the little girl has affection and righteousness for me, can I still be considered a person if I want to leave her at this juncture?

Although I am not afraid of Wei Wouji, I still think that it is necessary to transfer the family, otherwise it will be chaotic for a while, and if there is any damage, then I will regret it for life.

As agreed in advance, I took the green calyx to the back door, where a two-horse four-wheeled carriage had been parked, driven by an old family member of Shi Dong, who knew the way to the outer house.

It didn't take much effort, the three wives of the Shi family came out in turn, Shi Dijia followed at the end, holding Shi Dong's wife, each with tears in the corners of their eyes, Shi Chi's wife, that is, my cheap old lady, cried for no reason when she saw me.

The saddest ones in this are the second lady and the third lady, but the reason for being sad is different, the second lady looks sad, that is because her two sons have stayed, and whether they can see each other again is still in the second place; The third lady looked sad, and the reason was naturally self-evident - the eldest lady's family was in trouble and wanted to go to the junior to live, so it was no wonder that she was aggrieved.
