Volume 1 The Eagle Flies at the End of the Han Dynasty Chapter 12 Picking Up the Lantern Night Talk
Nanying slowly opened his eyes, only to find that he was lying back on his bed, and the night was already thick outside the window, and the room was lit with a faint fire candle.
He moved slightly, the wounds on his shoulders had obviously been carefully bandaged, but there was only a faint pain.
By the window, Gao Shun stood with his hands in his hands and stared at the bright moon in the sky, heard the sound, turned his head and smiled: "Brother Nan, you are awake!" How does the wound feel? ”
Nanying saw that Gao Shun had been guarding his side, and said gratefully: "It's much better, it should just be a skin injury!" It's just that how dare you work Brother Gao to accompany me personally! ”
Gao Shun shook his head and sighed: "For our business, Brother Nan's old wounds have not healed, and new injuries have been added, I am already ashamed, and just now Qing'er has detailed your trip to the tiger's den, I Gao Shun still want to thank Brother Nan for his life-saving kindness to Qing'er, and it is even more important to take care of you!" ”
Nan Ying waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "If you have it, then I have to thank you for saving your life before!" We two big men must not be polite to each other anymore! That's right! Qing'er is okay, right? ”
"She's so nice! I was here all the time just now, but I saw that she was frightened during the day and forced her to rest! A strange smile flashed on Gao Shun's face, "After today's incident, she seems to have changed her opinion of Brother Nan a lot, and she is still reluctant to go!" ”
Nanying was embarrassed when he heard the meaning of the words, and he was speechless for a while.
Gao Shun was silent for a while, with a complicated look in his eyes, and said sincerely: "Brother Nan, you originally had injuries on your body and should recuperate quietly, but Gao really has some things to inquire about!" ”
Nan Ying slowly sat up from the couch and said calmly: "After the events of the day, I know that Senior Brother will have questions, and I have roughly guessed what you will ask!" I want to apologize to my brother first, because I did tell a lie before! ”
Gao Shun showed a look of relief: "Sure enough, you are a good man, dare to act, I don't blame you, I believe that you must have something unspeakable, so you will deliberately hide it from me." But Brother Nan, please be relieved, even if you don't tell the truth, I, Gao Shun, will still treat you as a brother! ”
He looked at Nanying and said word by word: "Just because I believe in you!" ”
Nan Ying's heart was excited, and he said astringently: "I have deceived you before, and you still believe me?" Aren't you afraid that I'm a vile villain? ”
Gao Shun smiled dumbly: "You are full of economy and have the world in mind, for great wisdom; To take risks alone and fight bravely is for great bravery; In order to protect Qing'er, regardless of life and death, it is even more affectionate. Such a strange man with both wisdom and courage, affection and righteousness, will he be a despicable villain? ”
His eyes flashed eagerly, and he said in a deep voice: "No matter who you are, I am willing to have the honor to be friends with you in life and death!" ”
Nan Ying and Gao Shun looked at each other deeply, he could see that Gao Shun's words were indeed from the bottom of his heart, except for the dragon in his life, no one had such a deep affection for him, and he couldn't help but have blood boiling in his chest, and his backhand shook Gao Shun's outstretched hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Then I'll call you big brother!" ”
Gao Shun saw Nanying's true feelings, and he was also excited, the two held hands together, looked at each other, and had the same mind, and there was no suspicion, and they couldn't help laughing together.
Nan Ying stopped laughing, and said: "Big brother, the younger brother will tell the true origin in a while, and there will inevitably be some shocking words, you must be mentally prepared first, don't scold me for talking nonsense!" ”
Gao Shun smiled and said, "Don't you underestimate your eldest brother too much and treat me as a vulgar and short-sighted person?" Actually, I've analyzed your true identity before, but I don't know if it's right! ”
Nanying was very curious: "Then please ask the eldest brother to analyze it first!" ”
Gao Shun got up and came to the candle, gently cut off the candle flowers, and then turned around to slowly help Nanying up, and the two of them paced to the window together, facing Haoyue and standing by the window.
Gao Shun said leisurely: "That day, I saw a vision from the sky, and I found a virtuous brother all the way to pursue it, so I knew that you must be a stranger. I Gao Shun has studied under famous teachers since childhood, traveled around, although I dare not say that I know everything about the world, and I am by no means a lonely and unheard person, but I have never heard of the clothes and things that the virtuous brother wears and carries with him, so the virtuous brother said that he came from a very far away, and this statement should be true. But if you say that you came from a merchant family, it seems to me that there are many loopholes! ”
Nan Ying couldn't help blushing and said: "I also made it up casually, in fact, the younger brother doesn't know anything about business, but I don't know that the eldest brother has already seen it!" ”
Gao Shun said casually: "I can see that it is not difficult. First, since a businessman has come from afar to do business, he will definitely calculate the time and arrange the itinerary in advance, so as not to miss the business opportunity, but the virtuous brother does not even know what year it is. Second, you said that you were robbed by bandits on the road with a large number of goods, which is even more wrong! Large caravans must be escorted by many warriors, within a thousand miles of this vicinity, the only Qiang tribe that has the ability to rob large caravans is probably the Qiang tribe, ordinary bandits are afraid that they do not have this ability, and even if they have this ability, they do not dare to rob foreign caravans, because this may lead to annihilation. Thirdly, and most importantly, isn't it strange that you, as the young master of a caravan, do not wear brocade clothes and silk and do not carry a ledger of goods, but you are dressed in black at night and carry delicate weapons? It seems to me that you are not only a businessman, but more like an assassin with a mysterious mission! ”
Nan Ying's face changed color when he heard this, and he knew that he really underestimated this big brother who seemed to have no city, and he had already seen the lies in a row, and even guessed his identity, Gao Shun is indeed worthy of being a famous general in the world.
I only heard Gao Shun continue: "After a battle during the day, you have annihilated more than a dozen fierce tigers with the strength of one person, which further confirms my judgment of your identity!" With such a skill, don't say that I am not as good as Gao Shun, but today, how many people can do it? ”
Nan Ying smiled bitterly: "The eldest brother has an overreputation, and I also relied on the sharpness of the secret weapon to get lucky, I don't know if the eldest brother has seen anything?" ”
Gao Shun said bitterly: "There is only one thing I can't figure out, that is, although you are from afar, you know me very well, and you are also very insightful about the affairs of the world, especially your conclusion that the world will be in chaos in less than two years, is by no means a temporary statement, but an accurate analysis of the current situation." It is not surprising that the famous people of the world have such skills, but how can a newcomer do it? I really can't understand it! ”
"It's simple!" Nan Ying looked at Gao Shun with a strange gaze, "Just because I come from more than 1,800 years later, the past, present and future are just history for me, everything has happened!" ”
Gao Shun shook violently, as if he had been struck by lightning, and lost his voice: "What! ”
Nan Ying sighed: "I know that the eldest brother can't understand it, but this is indeed the truth, otherwise how can I explain a series of mysteries on me!" ”
Gao Shun lost his soul and said: "Impossible, impossible!" ”
Nan Ying knew that this matter was indeed beyond the imagination of people in this era, and Gao Shun's performance was far above ordinary people, and others might have thought of themselves as crazy people a long time ago.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to say it differently, so he smiled and said, "Big brother, don't be surprised, in fact, the last time you saw a vision from the sky, it was I who opened the passage to here with the help of the power of the gods!" ”
Gao Shun remembered that white light and seven-colored light flashed in the sky that day, and he believed it for a while, and hesitated: "What is the purpose of that virtuous brother to return to this era?" ”
Nanying said in a deep voice: "Don't hide it from my eldest brother, my father and I were both excellent soldiers of that era, and it is true that my father was killed, but not here, but in the era when I came." The reason why I returned to the Han Dynasty was to find the magic weapon left by the gods, hoping to save my father's life. ”
Gao Shun finally regained his composure, and looked Nan Ying up and down again, as if he wanted to get to know him again, and then said, "I see, how is the virtuous brother going to do it?" ”
Seeing that Gao Shun looked as usual so quickly, Nan Ying secretly admired, and said: "According to what my father said, aliens... The gods buried the magic weapon near Luoyang (should be Luoyang, for writing and reading, and will be called Luoyang in the future), and I am going to look for it after this is over. Please help me! ”
Gao Shun waved his hand and said: "I have already said, no matter who you are, you are my Gao Shun's brother, your father is like my father, how can I stand idly by?" ”
Nanying was ecstatic in his heart, and he had to help Gao Shun wholeheartedly, and the certainty of success was doubled! couldn't help but have slightly red eyes, grabbed Gao Shun's hands and shook them again and again, speechless!
Gao Shun felt Nan Ying's mood, gently patted the back of Nan Ying's hand, and couldn't help but be deeply moved by his filial piety.
Nanying barely collected his mood and hesitated: "Big brother......"
What kind of person Gao Shun was, he guessed his mind and said: "Brother, don't worry! Since you have told me the truth without reservation, it shows that the friendship is deep, brother, I will keep this big secret for you, and even Qing'er will not tell it. But, alas, this matter is indeed as the brother said, it is really appalling! ”
Nan Ying suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly: "Big brother, I also discovered a strange thing today, these tigers are only afraid that they are more difficult to deal with than we imagined, and there may be people manipulating them behind their backs!" ”
Gao Shun nodded and said, "Not bad!" I heard Qing'er say that you were in a stalemate with the black tiger, and someone actually called it away with the sound of a flute! This is not a simple matter! ”
Then he said curiously: "Brother Xian killed the tiger today, did he use that strange secret weapon?" Seeing Nan Ying nodding, he couldn't help but regret and said: "This weapon is extremely powerful, why don't you just get rid of that black tiger together!" It can also get rid of a big trouble! ”
Nan Ying still had palpitations when he remembered the power of the black tiger, and said with a wry smile: "You say I don't want to!" That black tiger moves like the wind, is extremely smart, and is simply a demon beast! My weapon is called a pistol, and I have to reload it after the bullet is fired, otherwise it will be like scrap metal, and I only have the last bullet left in the gun at that time, if I can't kill it, Qing'er and I will rest. "I calculated in my heart, there were still 2 magazines left plus one bullet in the gun, there were only 17 bullets in total, and I couldn't help but feel distressed.
Gao Shun's face was solemn, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Now that he has formed a big enmity with the tigers, the people behind the scenes will never give up!" Is there a good plan for my brothers? ”
Nan Ying muttered, "If we assume that there are indeed people secretly controlling the tigers, then they must have some plan, and I guessed from the tigers' expulsion of bandits and the monitoring of Taniguchi's movements. In today's war, they will definitely be wary and fearful, and it is very likely that they will turn from light to darkness and take revenge on us. ”
Gao Shun agreed: "Brother and I think the same. So how should we respond? ”
Nan Ying sighed: "Originally, I wanted to suggest that the eldest brother take the initiative to attack and raze the tiger's den in one fell swoop, but today I have seen the power of the tiger, but I can't move lightly, otherwise there will be a lot of casualties." The only way to do this is to train the samurai of Tanaka as soon as possible to improve their combat effectiveness, and at the same time strengthen the defense of the pass and the dock fort, strictly prohibit the entry and exit of Taniguchi, and wait for the other party to strike first. If the other party really has a plan, I am afraid that after a long time, I will not be able to hold it back, and maybe it will reveal flaws. ”
Gao Shun also smiled and said: "This plan is wonderful! It just so happens that I have just replenished a large amount of salt, and in the short term I will be able to be self-sufficient without leaving the grain! ”
The two of them agreed on some more details, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they thought about the defense of the entire valley perfectly.
Gao Shun remembered the magical origin of Nanying, although the heart was like stopping water on weekdays, but at this time it was also itchy and unbearable, and asked questions about the history after the Han Dynasty, fortunately, Nanying knew a lot about history, although he was dizzy and dizzy, but he had to answer all questions, and Gao Shun was fascinated by it, and he was suspicious of his dreams.
Coldly, Gao Shun asked, "I don't know what my future will be?" ”
Nan Ying's heart was like a big stone pressed down, and he couldn't speak, did he want to tell Gao Shun that he would be defeated and die because of Lu Bu in the future?
Gao Shun saw that Nan Ying wanted to speak and stopped, his expression was panicked, and he immediately guessed a few points, his face couldn't help but change greatly, and he quickly smiled again: "If the crockpot is not broken from the well, the general will inevitably die in battle, everything is fate!" What am I afraid of? What's more, now that there is such a strange person as a virtuous brother, maybe I will turn evil into good luck! ”
Nanying couldn't help but admire Gao Shun's free and easy, and secretly resolved in his heart that he would do his best to change Gao Shun's tragic fate.
There was a rooster crowing outside the window, and the two of them were stunned, only then did they realize that the dawn was fainting in the sky, and the candles in the room had been burned out, so they talked all night.
The two stayed awake all night, but they both felt refreshed and couldn't help but smile at each other.
Gao Shun stood up and sighed: "Although this night is short, I Gao Shun seems to have experienced thousands of years, and I have a better understanding of the meaning of life, but I am afraid that it will increase a lot of troubles in the future, and the virtuous brother is really harmful!" ”
Nan Ying smiled: "Big brother's words are wrong! Life is like a white horse, and we should set up lofty ideals and strive to achieve them in a short life, which is the biggest trouble. But you need to know, how can you be happy without troubles? Isn't the meaning of life all in it? ”
Gao Shun scolded with a smile: "You monster after a thousand years, how can I talk about you!" All right! Not only do you want to realize your lofty ideals, but you don't want to go to train people with your brother as soon as possible! With that, he pushed open the door, put his hands behind his back, and went away.
The red sun was rising, and the soft sunlight was shining lightly on Nanying's face, and his heart was also warm, so he couldn't help screaming and chased out the door.
