Chapter 239: Huang Zhong
The bearded veteran and the others, as well as the lieutenant and his entourage, all turned to the side of the road, only to see a carriage parked on the side of the road, and several guards standing on both sides of the carriage, holding their hands on their waists and knives without turning their eyes away. The curtain rolled up, and a tall figure emerged from the carriage.
It is the Jingxiang Romance Difference!
Kuai Yue stepped down from the carriage and slowly walked in front of everyone accompanied by the guards: "What are you waiting for?" They are all men in the army, why do they plan to draw their swords against each other? ”
It turned out that not only the bearded veteran was holding the handle of the knife tightly, but the captain and Sima also pressed their hands tightly on their waists. It seems that if Kuai Yue hadn't stopped it on the spot, I was afraid that the gate of this quadrangle would have to stage a full martial arts soon.
"Mr. Xenomorph!" The bearded veteran put down the hilt of the knife in his hand and gave a military salute to Kuai Yue, "We are the soldiers who are guarding General Huang Zhonglang here by Captain Liu, and this group of people claims to be under the command of Zhang Dudu of the Xiangyang Navy Army, and they came to extract General Huang Zhonglang on the order of Zhang Duwei!" ”
"What do you say? Where is Huang Hanshengguan located? Haven't you been in prison all the time? Kuai Yue pointed to the courtyard in front of him and looked at the bearded veteran in surprise.
The bearded veteran nodded and said: "Mr. Hui's words, after the governor of my family came back from the state government yesterday, he said that according to the will of the lord, Huang Hansheng was not suitable to be imprisoned in prison, and he needed to set up another courtyard to take care of him alone, so the little one was ordered by the commander to temporarily detain this Huang Hansheng here." ”
Kuai Yue bowed his head, and then turned to the captain and Sima Dao: "Since they are guarding Huang Hansheng on the order of Liu Duwei, there is naturally no problem. So why did you come here? What are you doing? ”
"Mr. Gift, our party is on the order of my Xiangyang Navy Captain Zhang Du, and came to extract Huang Han's promotion to the Navy camp, as for the specific reason, Captain Du has not been told, we really don't know!" The captain and Sima Qi saluted Kuai Yue.
Kuai Yue stroked the long beard under his chin: "Although this matter is unreasonable, but your family Zhang Dudu is the nephew of the lord, and Liu Duwei is the nephew of the lord, the two of them are close relatives, maybe Liu Duwei wants to borrow Zhang Dudu's hand to take care of it."
After all, this Huang Hansheng's ministry is also under the command of Liu Duwei, and Liu Duwei should be afraid that the news will leak out. Since you are waiting for the order of the general of Zhang Dudu to extract Huang Han's promotion to your naval army camp, what about the token you are waiting for? ”
The captain snorted at the bearded veteran: "Isn't this for him?" As a result, he still doesn't believe who we are! ”
"Is that token fake?" Kuai Yue glanced at the bearded veteran.
The bearded veteran shook his head: "No! ”
"Since the token is not fake, what do you have to doubt? Or do you want to provoke a scuffle between my Jingzhou and land armies because of this incident? Kuai Yue's eyes gradually condensed.
As he spoke, Kuai Yue put a big hat on the head of the bearded veteran, but the bearded veteran didn't even dare to let out a fart.
Although he is not Sima, captain, or even the commander, he is Liu Pan's personal soldier, so he dares to question Sima and lieutenant under Zhang Yun. However, in the face of this Jing Xiang romance, he didn't dare to show a half dissatisfied look.
Kuai Yue, this famous scholar in Jingzhou, even the lord of Jingzhou, when he saw Kuai Yue, he had to call "Mr. Xenodu", how could Qiu Ba, who was not even the lord's dog, dare to be half disrespectful?
As for the doubt in his heart, the bearded veteran had already put it behind him, and hurriedly returned the token respectfully to Sima on the other side.
Kuai Yue nodded, and patted the bearded soldier again: "The law and discipline in the army are strict and prohibitive, you just have to follow the order, and tomorrow I will ask your Lieutenant and Zhang Dudu." With that, Kuai Yue waved his hand to the guards beside him and returned to the carriage.
The whip was light, the horses neighed, and the carriage turned a corner and slowly departed in the twilight.
Seeing Kuai Yue leave, Sima glared at the bearded veteran viciously, and kicked it over: "Don't hurry up and lead the way for Lao Tzu!" ”
"What the hell, what are you that dare to kick Lao Tzu?" The bearded veteran didn't pay attention, he was almost kicked and staggered, his color changed, and the long knife in his waist was pulled out and pointed at Na Sima and scolded.
The soldiers patrolling the front and back of the courtyard and the guards at the door rushed behind the bearded veteran at the same time, and the long swords, short swords, axes, hooks and forks in their hands pointed at the captain and his party. And the captain and the people behind Sima also raised the sharp weapons in their hands and faced each other, and the battle was about to break out.
The captain sneered, pushed aside the crowd and walked out of the crowd, walked in front of the bearded veteran, and slapped the veteran in the face hard.
"What the hell, a sparrow-sized Qiu Ba dares to commit a crime? Who gave you the guts, is it your Liu Duwei? Or did you want to provoke a war between the two armies, as Mr. Xenodu said? If you were in Lao Tzu's army, Lao Tzu would have thrown you into the river and fed the dead! ”
The veteran was indignant, his face was bruised, and the knife in his hand was becoming more and more uncontrollable and shaking sharply, but when he heard the captain's words "Mr. Xenodu", his heart was shocked.
Kuai Yue also asked himself just now, if something really happens, Kuai Yue and the lord will definitely have a preconceived idea, and he and his brothers can only die in the world except for the guillotine!
Thinking of this, the veteran's whole heart suddenly cooled, as if a scoop of ice water was pouring from his head to his feet.
"You have a kind, today's things Lao Tzu will not just forget it, next time it's best not to crash into Lao Tzu's hands! Brothers, go! The veteran touched the finger prints on his face, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, glared at the lieutenant and Sima fiercely, put the long knife into the sheath with a bang, shouted angrily, and swaggered towards the avenue.
"Boss, don't you hand them over?" A small soldier asked a weak old soldier.
The bearded veteran smiled, and kicked the soldier away with a fierce look: "Handover? Handover fart! Lao Tzu has followed Du Wei to fight for so many years without such evil spirit, do you still want to go back and suffer from such evil anger of such birdmen again? Lao Tzu is not so cheap! ”
……
Seeing the bearded veteran and his party leave, the captain and Sima smiled at each other, nodded to the soldiers behind them, and saw that everyone was quietly scattered around the courtyard, and the two slowly pushed open the door and walked in.
Although the courtyard is called a courtyard house, there are several ear rooms, wing rooms, etc., but this courtyard is really dilapidated.
The sun had already set down the hillside, and the twilight shrouded the courtyard, and the main house of the courtyard was only lit with two candles, swaying under the blowing of the river breeze, ready to be extinguished at any time.
The two sighed, walked into the main room, and saw a simple wooden bed directly on the side of the lobby, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt, but still unable to suppress the chills, the whole body curled up in the quilt, pale, hysterical coughing, as if trying to cough out the lungs.
A middle-aged man who was no longer confused bowed his head, his palm gently patted the boy's back through the quilt, and his mouth was full of words of relief. Unfortunately, his relief did not alleviate the boy's pain, or even his own sorrow.
In the faint light of the red candle, you can still see the sorrow on his face and the endless gray hair on his head. The dim lights, the desolate courtyard, the only son who was bedridden, and the hero's white hair formed a bleak picture that struck the captain's heart.
This is what Luo Guanzhong said, "Heavy gold chain mail, double iron tire bow." The courage is shocking Hebei, and the famous town of Shuzhong is "Huang Zhong!" This is the Huang Zhong who beheaded Xiahou Yuan, the general of Cao Ying, at the foot of Dingjun Mountain!
"The family and country are broken, and the hero has no way to serve the country, but he is plotted by the villain, causing the hero to fall into despair, which is my fault!" Looking at Huang Xu on the sickbed and Huang Zhong who was already in front of the bed, the school captain sighed leisurely, and blurted out Du Fu's "Ascending" in his heart.
"The wind is urgent, the sky is high, the ape is howling, and the white bird flies back. The boundless falling trees are falling, and the Yangtze River is rolling. He has often been a guest in the sad autumn for more than a hundred years
Sick alone on stage. Hardship, bitterness, hatred, frost and sideburns, pouring down a new turbid wine glass. ”
Huang Zhong was shocked when he heard this, slowly turned his head, and looked at the two of them: "Are you waiting for Liu Pan's subordinates?" ”
"How does the general know?" The captain looked at Huang Zhong in surprise.
Huang Zhong glanced at Huang Xu with a loving face, and pinched the corners of the quilt for Huang Xu, and then walked in front of the two: "Liu Pan's wife has no such unearthly characters as you, and your emotional words are so big, where do you put Liu Pan's words in your eyes?" However, although you are not under Liu Pan's command, I am afraid that you were also sent by Liu Jingzhou, right?
General Ben has already told you and others that General Ben resigned the previous time only for the sake of my son's crippled body, and planned to go to Luoyang to seek medical treatment! Let's go, no matter what you want to do, or where you want to detain General Ben, General Ben still only has these words in his mouth, General Ben and the former general have never met, let alone have any involvement and involvement! ”
The lieutenant looked at Huang Zhong with his eyes: "You don't want to go with us?" ”
"I don't want to, my heart is tired. You go back and tell Liu Jingzhou, my old Huang Zhong doesn't need him to toss around for this life, let him take it when he wants, and repay him for his original promotion! Huang Zhong shook his head, picked up a bench and sat in front of the bed with a sad face, a tear left from the corner of his eye.
"Old general, if we are here for Ling Gongzi's illness, are you still willing to follow us?"
"This famous doctor in the land of Jingxiang, General Ben has already learned them one by one, but where can he find a famous doctor who can treat Xu'er?"
"What about Luoyang?"
"Luoyang? Forget it! Huang Zhong was startled, bounced up from the bench, his eyes seemed to come to life, flashing with excitement and inquiry, "Where are you talking about?" Is it Ruoyang? Would you like to say it again? Who are you two? ”
The lieutenant and Sima looked at each other and smiled, both stepped forward and hugged their fists at Huang Zhong and said, "Wang Deyu and Zhao Zilong of Changshan have seen General Huang!" ”
The two people in front of them turned out to be the world-famous Wang Deyu and Zhao Zilong?
Huang Zhong's eyes almost fell out, and his mouth was so round that he almost swallowed an ostrich egg. After a while, he came back to his senses and hugged his fists towards the two: "The old man Nanyang Huang Hansheng has seen the former general and the general Zhendong!" ”
"Old General Huang, Wang heard that you were imprisoned by Liu Biao because of Shi Guangyuan's involvement in Ling Gongzi's affairs, and he was very uneasy, so he pretended to be in Jingzhou and took you and Ling Gongzi to Luoyang for treatment, are you willing to go with me?" Wang Li helped Huang Zhong sit down under the bench.
Send Xu'er to Luoyang for medical treatment?
Wang Li's words hit Huang Zhong's tears, Huang Zhong's long-term depression and depression seemed to have finally found a breakthrough, and suddenly the old tears were rampant, and two lines of tears flowed out of his eyes.
It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, but Huang Zhong's breath has been held back for too long, so long that even he has almost forgotten the years.
He can't remember how many pairs of shoes he and his wife have broken up, nor how many doctors he and his wife have visited, and even how much debt he owes to others. The only thing he knows is that his wife has passed away, and Huang Xu's body, the only blood of him and his wife, is still getting worse and worse, and he gradually can't get up.
Now, the former general asked him in front of him if he was willing to send Xu'er to Luoyang for medical treatment, how could he not be willing? How could you not want to? Even if you pay with your own life for it, what's the matter! Like a moth to a fire, he knows that he may die, because that is where his hope and light lie!
Nar is his hope and light!
Huang Zhong wiped the tears on his face, and suddenly knelt on the ground: "Zhong is willing to take Xu'er to Luoyang with the former general!" ”
