Chapter Forty-Eight: Gathering at the General's Tomb

The mill and the stone trotted all the way down the tunnel to the house, and it was late in the morning. They quietly sealed the hole and returned to the house.

Xiaoyu and Shi Dan hurriedly stepped forward to interrogate, how are my master and teacher? How are they? Q: We don't have one?

The two didn't answer, they took out two bowls of water from the water tank, drank two bowls of water, and said to their daughter-in-law, is there still food? The daughter-in-law said while serving the meal, they are all in a hurry, and they will not come back from the left, nor will they come back from the right, and this father has not come back until now, and we are left with orphans and widows, how anxious! Hurry up, hurry up and eat!

Grinder and Stone heard that Dad didn't come back, so it's been a long time, why haven't they come back yet? Nothing will happen!

At this moment, there was a knock on the street door, and the old Eighth Road came back. The two children heard the familiar footsteps, and rushed out of the city with one arrow step! Grandpa, why did you come back?! After speaking, the two children saw their grandfather followed by two militiamen, and immediately became suspicious, why are they so weird today? Dad doesn't talk to us, and Grandpa has more militia protection around him, which has never happened before! The two children were thinking about it, and Lao Balu stepped forward and picked up the two children one by one and said, didn't you make trouble at home? The two children hurriedly said, we don't have it, but if we are obedient, we are looking forward to your return! Then the mill and the stone came out of the house and said, "Daddy is back, let's go into the house and eat." Lao Balu looked back at the two militiamen and said, come in and have some food, you are also hungry. The two militiamen said, "Old secretary, you can eat, let's go home and eat, and come back after eating." After saying that, he turned around and left.

The mill asked Lao Balu, Dad, what's going on? Lao Balu didn't speak, and returned to the house with the child in his arms. Xiaoyu's mother hurriedly served the meal, and the three men in the family devoured it!

The two children and the two mothers, looking at the eating appearance of the pillars of the family, couldn't help but feel emotional! Yes, I don't know how long it has been, how can there be a difference between day and night! It's a common thing to not return all night, no matter when there is food in the pot, no matter when you come back, there is always food in the pot, and whoever is hungry can't let the three of them starve!

Lao Balu glanced at the mill and the stone and said, how are they?

Ranzi said, it's okay, it's just that Xiao Zhuge is worried that something will happen to you. Dad, how can there be militia with you when you come back, what's going on?

Lao Balu said "um", it's not a big deal, I just told you a few words, don't care about what I have in the future, don't ask and theorize, you must remember, otherwise, not only will it not work well, but it will make things worse, remember?

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt a little uneasy, but everyone had to listen to the old man's words, his old man's life was not easy, and he couldn't make trouble for him anymore! Good Dad, we remember.

Well, let's sleep if there's nothing to do, I'll go back to the house.

Lao Balu looked back at the two children, and felt that something was wrong, so he asked, what's wrong with the two of you? Pouting a little and looking unhappy, is there something wrong?

Can't sleep grandpa.

For what?

Do you know what day it is?

Lao Balu blinked a few times and said, I don't know what day it is?

It is the day of the burial of the general's tomb!

As soon as these words came out, the old Balu was shocked! The child's words suddenly reminded Lao Balu of that day! Oh yes, what an unforgettable day, how could I have forgotten it? Starting from a story, starting from a legend, I went through so many hardships and hardships to finally make their lifelong dream come true! Accumulating goodness and virtue, the sky has eyes, and at the same time, it also allowed me to make my old eight roads fulfill my grandson's dream, so that I have these two smart and clever little guys! Thinking of this, infinite emotion rose in the heart of Lao Balu!

What do you two mean? Lao Balu asked the two children.

We want to go and see, we haven't been there for a long time, the general's tomb must be overgrown, and no one cares, we want to go to pay our respects and clean the general's tomb!

People are not big, they don't talk much, and what touches people's hearts the most is the heart! Lao Balu looked at the two children affectionately, good job, go, grandpa will take you there, let's go to pay tribute to the general's tomb together!

The "high-profile" birth of the child left a different impression on the world, and in an instant their birth was well known to the world, and people rushed to tell each other, and their reputation quickly expanded and spread in an instant, and for a time they became the world's talkers, and received great attention and love from the world! The world loves and rejoices, and Lao Balu cares for the two children with great grace, giving great comfort and glory to this person who has suffered from the vicissitudes of life! Every move of the two children is "shocking", and every incident is extremely asymmetrical with their age! From the rain and nectar, saving the people from fire and water, to exploring the secrets of the tunnels and meeting the bandit Niu Erjie Jinlan at night, and then to exposing the hidden hole to catch the bully and outwitting the mysterious treasure in danger, each piece of earth-shattering legend, the legend is incredible! In troubled times, the gun shoots the first bird! The more this is the case, the more it will attract the attention and plot of those wicked people, every event, the world has inlaid them with a layer of beautiful gold edges, and the old Balu will reprimand the children and disperse the crowd in public every time, why is he not proud and proud of the actions of the two children? But he can't do that, once the aperture of the two children is allowed to spread and expand, if they bring them any trouble, the old Balu will definitely regret it for life, and it will bring great mental pain and disaster to the whole family!

The joy and pride that the two children brought to Lao Balu's heart, how depressed and helpless! Because of this, he planted deep guilt and indescribable pain for the two children in his heart!

As a grandfather, Lao Balu can't stand them! He wanted to do something for the two children, or promise something, but he never had the chance. Tonight, the two children suddenly proposed to go to the general's tomb, which caused a lot of problems for the old Eighth Road, to go or not to go? If you go, it's in the middle of the night, and it's in this haze, if something really happens, what can I do! If I don't go, in the face of these two lovely relatives, I, as a grandfather, refuse again, how can I feel embarrassed?! While hesitating and wandering, Lao Balu secretly scolded himself in his heart for being useless! I can't even do this on my own, hi......

Walk! Children, grandpa promises you, let's go to the general's tomb! Lao Balu can't miss this opportunity anymore, he can't refuse the children anymore, the more this situation is, the more courage he has to show to give the children a proof, a proof to those who have a dissecting heart, and a proof to the world, my old Balu's reputation is not scared out!

This is the first time that Lao Balu has shown their intimacy in a high-profile manner in front of the world with two children! There are militiamen on duty along the way, and occasionally encounters greetings from the villagers, and Lao Balu tastes the happy feeling between grandparents and grandchildren for the first time!

When he was about to get under the old locust tree, Lao Balu turned around and said to the two militiamen who were rooted behind him, will it be okay for you two to rest here? We'll go back as soon as we go, it'll be fine, please rest assured!

The two looked at each other and said, Okay, old secretary, you just go, we will wait for you here.

The breeze was blowing in the stars and moon, the winding country road led to the outside of the village, the leaves were shading, the frogs were whispering, the barking of dogs was far away, and the sound swirled in the air and disappeared into the night!

The three grandchildren walked to the tomb of the general outside the village, the old eight roads looked around, empty and desolate, the tomb was overgrown with weeds, no one patronized it for a long time, I remember that when the old eight roads were buried in the martyrs, they once said in their hearts that they would come to pay tribute every year, not let the grass grow in front of the grave, clean the surroundings, let the place be clean, and let the heroic soul rest peacefully here, but he has not been here once since he was buried! Deep guilt, once again spontaneously arisen, thinking of this, Lao Balu bent down and bowed deeply to the general's tomb!

Xiaoyu and Shidan came to the tomb, knelt on the ground, and bowed to the top of the general's tomb! That kind of piety and seriousness moved the old Balu standing aside!

Yes, the two children didn't make any other requests, but made this request, there must be some inexplicable origin in it! An ancient generation of famous generals, and a heroine, a legend of the world, a thousand years of good stories, and never ended, forgotten by the world, how can the tragedy of the world be under their noses, and still ignore it? Is this the biggest original intention of the old Eighth Road? Heroes cherish heroes, and the legend of heroes must be inherited by heroes! General, Lao Balu, Xiaoyu, Stone Egg, all this is accidental? All this is connected in the heart of Lao Balu, and it is inevitable that another emotion will arise in his heart! Thinking of this, he involuntarily knelt down on his knees......

At this moment, Lao Balu felt that a figure suddenly flickered, and he hurriedly stopped drinking, who? That shadow said, Eighth Master, it's me, Niu Er! The tense nerves of the old Balu relaxed in an instant! Why are you coming down so late? Niu Er said that he misses the eighth master and the child, and he misses him very much! At this time, when the two children saw Niu Er, they were happy, and they hugged Niu Er, one was coquettish, that affectionate, just like a long-lost relative, and the unspeakable emotions suddenly diffused!

The old eight roads were also deeply stabbed by this sudden meeting! Where is Xiao Zhuge ? Lao Balu asked Niu Er, Niu Er looked at Lao Balu, and snorted behind him, Lao Balu looked back, Xiao Zhuge was not far behind him, Xiao Zhuge hurriedly said, I have seen Ba Ye! Lao Balu secretly thought in his heart, the two of them are so high, they are worthy of being masters in the world!

Before Lao Balu could speak, the two children saw that Mr. was also coming, and they were so happy that they flew and pounced on Xiao Zhuge as if they were flying, and they kept saying, Mr. Sir, before anything else could be said, they were already choked and speechless!

Let's cry and vent our feelings! Brothers in the fellowship of life and death!

After a long time, Lao Balu asked, is the injury better? Xiao Zhuge said, there is nothing to do, thank you for the care of the eighth master, we are all very good, thanks to the mill and the stone to see us, give us food, take good care!

Do you have any special circumstances at this time? Xiao Zhuge said that he had a hand with the commissioner and Li Changji, and the intention was unknown, and it was estimated that it was still a matter of treasure, but it has been calm recently, and I don't know what Lu Dao means, so it feels like they have disappeared!

Lao Balu let out a "hmm", and his thoughts began to spin rapidly again! He remembered that conversation with the devil, and thought, could it be that they had really changed their tactics and found another ulterior conspiracy? If so, what could it be?

Niu Er said, Eighth Master, don't think about it so much, what kind of sassy ideas can those two birds come up with, no matter what vicious ghost ideas they come up with, as long as we are here, they won't succeed!

Lao Balu said, that's what he said, let's not underestimate these two bastards, their insidiousness is not comparable to ordinary people, especially the inner ghost, he can incite so many reactionary forces to fight against us to sabotage, it is enough to show this person's ability, and then this big killing, this is an organized and background gang, by no means idle, they are very good at judging the situation, adapting to the situation, and purposefully expanding a seemingly inadvertent incident, the methods are old and vicious, sober and flexible, and it is impossible to prevent it! We must find their flaws in the subtleties, dig deep into their motives, and find out their possible actions from the roots, only in this way can we follow the vine, catch them, and bring them to justice!

Niu Er said, it's so complicated! Xiao Zhuge said, the eighth master's analysis is very reasonable, all kinds of signs show that they have shifted the target of destruction, for example, this killing, has now expanded, and it is still expanding, where the next development will be expanded, these are all unknown, the reason for this, is it possible that they played a certain role in it? What do they want to do next?

Yes, the old eight roads say, that's what we have to think about! This step is very insidious, but we have no way to deal with it, this inner ghost is hidden very deeply, not showing a little horse's feet, in order to respond to all changes, and make waves inside! But it's hard to check, and there's no way to check, these guys are so hateful!

Yes, well said, the analysis is thorough, it is really the same as the hero's vision!

Just as they were talking, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and several of them suddenly broke out in a cold sweat! ……
