2. The Fog
A grave, in the middle of blooming wildflowers.
Wildflowers are very beautiful, but not glamorous, but with a different kind of tenacity, whether it is windy or rainy or the sun, they are proudly blooming in the world, showing the most beautiful face.
"Go!" Zhu Wu drove away the little bees in this flower.
Bow your head and carefully pull out the weeds mixed with the wildflowers. Then, smooth out the soil that has protruded from pulling weeds.
"Don't stay with my sister!"
Then, the weeds that were picked down were thrown far away by Zhu Wu and scattered on the ground around them.
Zhu Wu clapped his hands, wiped his cloth clothes, and slowly walked to the grave, where a bamboo basket was placed.
Rice wine, osmanthus sugar, baked cakes, and a piece of flower cloth.
It may be that he bent over too much, Zhu Wu felt that his waist was a little sore, and he couldn't help but beat it.
In the distance, a young pro-soldier, seeing King Han like this, just wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by the veteran beside him.
Moreover, at the signal of the veteran, the pro-soldiers silently retreated.
These things were placed in front of the grave by Zhu Wu in the same way.
"Sister, the fifth brother has come to see you, it's all your favorite food!"
Zhu Wu took out a quick cloth again, gently wiped the tombstone, and said, "This time, no one will rob you, and you don't have to give it to anyone, leave it to whom, eat as you like!" ”
The dust of the tombstone is gently wiped away, revealing a shine.
The tomb of my sister Guo Lian'er, brother Zhu Wu, Guo Ying, Guo Xingli.
"Lian'er, girl!"
Zhu Wu's fingers slid lightly on the tombstone handwriting, and somehow, his eyes turned red.
"Eh, it's not like my brother doesn't come to see you, you don't have kung fu, you have to fight! The junior and the fourth didn't come? These two bastards, I'll pump them both when I turn around. Well, the fifth brother knows that you feel sorry for the two of them, and the fifth brother gently pumped and didn't be ruthless! ”
With a muttering in his mouth, Zhu Wu slowly squatted down and pulled out the stopper of the rice wine, and the clear aroma of wine echoed at the tip of his nose.
Wow, slowly fell to the ground.
"One less!" Zhu Wu's hand stopped, and the sacrifices prepared in advance were missing.
"Where's the rice? Forgot the prepared meal? ”
At this moment, Zhu Yu came running in the distance with a panting, still holding a bowl in his hand.
"Daddy, bibimbap! You forgot about the lard bibimbap! ”
Oily rice was laid out in front of the grave.
Zhu Wu looked at the corners of Zhu Yuliang's mouth, and felt funny in his heart.
"You stole it?"
"Ahh I! That one! Zhu Yu lowered his head, his face flushed, "I didn't hold back just now, I took a bite and tasted something!" ”
Zhu Wu smiled, not angry, and squatted in front of the tombstone again, "Sister, I also brought you your favorite lard method." However, let this bastard steal two bites, I know you love children the most, don't blame him! ”
"Dad, who is this?" Zhu Yu asked puzzled.
"If it's by seniority, it's your aunt." Zhu Wu smiled and said, "My sister-in-law, the sister-in-law of the Guo family!" ”
plopped, Zhu Yu knelt down directly, dangdangdang, and kowtowed three heads firmly.
"Aunt, my name is Zhu Yu, I am my father's godchild, I will kowtow to you! This time, I didn't bring anything to you, don't blame me. ”
"She won't blame you! She loves kids! Zhu Wu sat in front of the grave with his knees crossed, looking at the words on the tombstone, "She is a child herself, but she looks like a sister." I can't bear to have anything delicious, so I always put it away and leave it for Xiu'er.
The days were not good, I just got a job as a helper in the inn, and after the New Year, the shopkeeper rewarded me with a few dollars.
I bought a few pieces of osmanthus candy on the street and took the sesame fruit home. Xiu'er ate it in one day, but then every day Lian'er could do a trick and take out a small piece.
She doesn't eat it herself, she leaves it to Xiu'er.
Another time, the shopkeeper rewarded me with a jar of lard, and she was so happy! I made bibimbap with lard, and she stopped eating half a bowl, saying that her stomach hurts.
I thought she was sick, but the next morning, she didn't finish the bowl of rice and added it to the breakfast of me and the Guo family.
I said, girl, why don't you eat it?
She said Fifth Brother, you are men, and you are tired from work! ”
With a snap, a tear fell on Zhu Wu's chest.
"Sister, brother hasn't eaten lard bibimbap for a long time, and brother thinks of you as soon as he eats it."
Zhu Wu stretched out his hand and touched the tombstone that was warmed by the sun again.
"Brother doesn't lack anything now, you know? Brother is going to be the king, no one in this world can control my brother, and no one dares to take care of my brother. If you're still here, no one in the world will dare to bully you! ”
Zhu Wu cried, "Before, my brother said not to let others bully you, but my brother didn't do it, but now my brother can do it, but you can't see it." ”
Chattering, Zhu Wu wiped his eyes, "Brother killed all the people who bullied you." They died miserably, and my brother cut off their heads and threw them away. On your side, they are lonely ghosts, and they can never turn over. ”
At this time, Zhu Wu smiled again.
"Don't be afraid, they won't find you. Besides, look at your side, all the brothers living on this mountain are our Dingyuan Army's brothers, all of them are your brothers, and they can protect you! ”
Suddenly, a butterfly landed on top of the tombstone, its colorful wings flickering, and it stopped right on the lotus character.
Zhu Wu's mind suddenly appeared, Lian'er's eyes with long eyelashes.
Behind him, there was the sound of footsteps. It seems that someone was blocked by the soldiers, and Zhu Wu knew that someone was urging him.
"Got it, I'll get on board right away!" Zhu Wutou didn't say anything back, and said to Zhu Yu with a smile, "Your Aunt Lian'er told me to let you finish this meal and sugar!" She said that there were cheap outsiders. ”
"Hey!" Zhu Yu agreed and started eating.
Zhu Wu picked up the rice wine and poured it.
"Lian'er, goodbye!"
At this time, on the dock of Hezhou, the battleship had already raised its sails, and everyone was waiting for King Han to board the ship.
In the city gates, where people are carried.
Li Sai and Xi Ying were really sneaky and whispered. Xi Laodao coughed from time to time, and there were echoes in the doorway.
"Old Dao, you're a bit big!" Li Sai glanced around and whispered, "The chief manager knows, can you spare me?" ”
"What? Scared? Xi Yingzhen coughed violently, "The two brothers of the Guo family, the two tigers have agreed, just send you one, if you don't want to do it, the old way is not reluctant!" ”
Li Sai's face was entangled for a while, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth, "Zhong, I'll listen to you." But then again, when the time comes, if the manager really wants to kill, you will have to speak for me! ”
Xi Yingzhen turned his back, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't worry, this is a good thing, he is reluctant to kill you!" Besides, if you want to kill him, you must kill me first! ”
Li Sai shook his head, "Hey, our manager, it's okay, it's just soft-hearted!" ”
Xi Yingzhen smiled, "You can't be called the manager, you have to call King Han in the future!" ”
~~~~
With a creak, the iron door of the cell was opened.
In the dark prison, a person is not a ghost, a puddle of mud wriggling in the shadows.
The scene was a little scary, but strangely, there was no rancid smell in this gloomy cell. Obviously, it's often taken care of.
"What day is it? There are dumplings? Got wine? ”
The mud suddenly spoke, and his voice was broken and hoarse, like two broken bowls rubbing against each other.
The person who came in to deliver the food was a half-grown doll, wearing a clean Taoist robe, and smiling kindly.
"Senior brother, you have such a good nose!" With that, the food slowly lay on the edge of the mud.
"I know, the old immortal is back!" The mud laughed wildly, "Xi Yingzhen is back, and you also asked you to send dumplings and wine to me, and Zhu Wu won the battle again?" Ran away? Speak, little hairy! ”
The person who delivered the meal was Xi Yingzhen's personal boy, Mao Xiang.
"Senior brother is really smart!" Mao Xiao stood up and smiled, "However, you have guessed a little bit!" After saying that, Mao Xiang lit the candle.
"Come, talk to my brother!"
In the candlelight, it was a miserable, lifeless face, full of resentment and resentment.
Daoyan monk, Yao Guangxiao.
Xi Yingzhen is really ruthless.
The once handsome monk is now no longer human, his hands and feet are broken, his eyes are blind, and he is a wasted person.
In this dark cell, they are raised like pigs, and they can't survive and die.
There was only one breath left, propped up.
"The master is still on the way back, it's the younger brother who takes a step back first, come and see the senior brother!" Mao Xiang sat on the side and said with a smile, "Senior brother said that winning the battle is not necessarily true!" ”
"Hmph, I didn't win the battle, can I show off in front of you?"
"It's not just about winning!" Mao Xiang still smiled, "The Dingyuan army has completely annihilated the 600,000 army that escaped. ”
"Impossible!" Dao Yan shouted angrily, "That's 600,000, what is Zhu Wu going to fight?" ”
"There's also the credit of your starling brother in this!" Mao Xiang continued, "Dingyuan's main attack, he attracts on the side, and now he also occupies Huai'an!" ”
"Huai'an!" A smile appeared on Dao Yan's face, but it immediately turned into horror, "What about Zhu Wu?" ”
"Manager Zhu is not the manager now!" Mao Xiang said slowly, "King Han! He is already His Royal Highness the King of Han! ”
"King Han!" Dao Yan muttered to himself, "Huai'an? Suddenly, he shouted like crazy, "How can Zhu Wu be so kind, he is taking heavy eight as a shield to block the court in Huai'an!" ”
"Senior brother, don't blame the master for saying that you are good at the trail!" Mao Xiang sneered, "The 600,000 that have been taken off have all been killed by the King of Han, and he still has to be afraid of the imperial court!" ”
"Then why give him Huai'an?"
Dao Yan suddenly understood, and cried silently, "You are so ruthless, you are going to kill them all!" ”
Mao Xiang stood up and carried the food box, "Senior brother, you are wrong again." It is the King of Han who calls the shots and gives him Huai'an! ”
