Volume 1 The Return of the General Chapter 50 The Dead Are Like Si

The moonlight poured down, and his long eyelashes melted upward, causing the moonlight to pour into his deep eyes and point out a few stars.

It was the first time he had seen such a brazen person, but he couldn't say a single "no".

Before he could answer, Xiao Qiao had already hooked the pot of wine with her hand, raising her eyebrows to show off, it turned out that this was her real purpose.

She let go of him and sat down: "Hey, don't worry, I'm not a broken sleeve, I don't dare to peep...... The beauty of adults. ”

After that, he looked Mu up and down with a smile.

Tsk, that face, stunning...... That waist, it's really good to hug it, tsk, tsk, wonderful......

Mu Yi glanced at her faintly and sat down side by side with her.

The moon isn't very bright tonight, so the stars seem to be exceptionally clear.

Xiao Qiao hooked the stars in the sky with her index finger, and soon found her when she was a child, her aunt taught her to recognize the Big Dipper.

The Big Dipper shone in the sky, as if it was no different from when he was a child.

She remembered that A-Niang had told her that the stars in the sky were the dead.

"Greedy wolf, broken army......" Xiao Qiao counted the stars in the sky, and then asked him sideways: "How many stars can you recognize?" ”

Mu Yi looked at the sky seriously: "Ziwei, North Pole, Gou Chen, Tianli." ”

Xiao Qiao sneered, propped his head and asked:

"Do you believe that people become stars when they die?"

Mu Yi thought for a moment: "Not necessarily. ”

"Not necessarily?"

"Hmm." Kiichi squinted at the pitch black.

"Some people change stars, some people grind dust."

It was the first time Xiao Qiao had heard such a statement, but he also felt that it was novel and interesting, so he took a sip of wine and said to Mu Yi:

"When I was fighting in Nanyi, as long as it didn't rain, I could see the stars in the sky every night. Then I and the soldiers will count together...... Count how many stars there are in the sky, count how many enemies have been killed, and how many brothers have died......"

"That's why I want people to never see each other after they die. Otherwise, if you die, you will hate for whom I killed me and who I killed. ”

"But sometimes, I wish I could see people after they die, so that one day, I will be able to see the people I see again."

"You...... Is there anyone in particular you'd like to meet?"

Xiao Qiao pointed to the sky.

Kiichi shook his head.

Someone in heaven you really want to see?

The man who gave birth to him who left him on the side of the road? The person who raised him for a few days and then sent him to Chi Xiaowei for money? Those who grew up with him and then died by his knife? Or is it the one who applauds in the midst of all the killings?

Or, C?

Mu Yi was silent, and by the afterglow, Xiao Qiao's broken hair and the streamers on his bun seemed to be melancholy in the wind.

She took a sip of wine, it was the pot that Mu Yi had tasted, Mu Yi frowned and looked at her, she just smiled:

"In fact, it is enough for people to live seriously and cherish the people around them when they are alive. If you die, even if you become a star in the sky, you will not be able to see anyone you see when you are thousands of miles apart. ”

After that, she took another sip of wine.

Mu Yi thought that he rushed to Muxi Mountain that day, Xiao Qiao was drunk, and it was Gu Beixuan who carried her into the camp tent, so he snatched the wine jug in a muffled voice: "Okay."

"You think I'm verbose?" Xiao Qiao was displeased.

"Hmm." Kiichi nodded earnestly.

Xiao Qiao ignored Mu Yi's answer, and stared directly at the jar of wine on Mu Yi's hand, for fear that he would smash himself again later, and suddenly a thought suddenly came up in his heart.

Sure enough, what the ancients said about thinking under the moon is true.

She remembers tasting wine for the first time as a child.

-

"It's so spicy, what is this!"

She looked at him sadly.

"It's wine!"

Eight-year-old Xiao Qiao laughed at her and said: "Husbands have to drink, drink to eliminate sorrows, and drink without worry."

"You're a liar! The wine is so unpleasant, I'm afraid it will make people feel sad and worried. And you're still a kid! Daddy says kids can't drink! I'm going to tell Daddy! She muttered.

"If you dare to go, I'll tell A-Niang that your medicine garden was smashed by you climbing the wall and falling down!"

"You!" Her eyes widened, but she didn't know how to refute.

"Okay, the eldest husband doesn't bother with the female doll, but ......"

"Are you worried, Xiao Er?"

"Hmm...... Probably not," she said.

"What do you mean probably not?" Xiao Qiao's face was puzzled.

"If only I could be like you...... OK...... You can go out! Then there is no such thing at all! ”

"You can't go out!" Xiao Qiao said solemnly.

"Daddy said, you can't go out, and I can't tell anyone that I have a sister! It's called ...... House...... Zangjiao! Oh, it's what a hidden Jiao, which means that you are the treasure of our family, and you can't let others covet it. ”

Baby? What baby? She didn't want to be such a baby, she just wanted to go out. She thought to herself.

"That'...... I just don't. ”

"That's it, you don't have to worry about it, naturally you don't know the fun in this wine."

Xiao Qiao smiled proudly: "Xiao Er, brother hopes that you will never understand the fun of this wine for the rest of your life."

"Then why do you understand? What else do you have to worry about besides going out to fight and getting beaten up by your daddy?"

"Because the eldest husband has to drink!" Xiao Qiao argued with a red face.

She raised an eyebrow and asked him, "And we are twins, why are you an older brother?"

"I'm your brother! What's the basis for this! What do you know, fool! ”

She asked, "Then let me ask you, do you know where people are most worried?"

"Of course I do! That's the place where the most sorrow is in the world! ”

Xiao Qiao straightened his hand and pointed to the red palace wall that could be seen from afar.

"Not really. is here. ”

She blinked at him:

"When Daddy is at home, he worries about the border; When Daddy was fighting, Ah Niang was worried about Daddy. When A-Niang was at home, she was worried about the sick; When A-Niang went to practice medicine, her father was worried about A-Niang's body...... It's really worrying......"

"Xiao Er, this is a small family, but there is the sorrow of thousands of families in the world!"

Together, they tilted their heads and looked at the palace wall in the distance.

"Why?" She asked again. Why is there so much sorrow in the sorrow of thousands of families there?

"I don't know." Xiao Qiao shook his head.

"Then what do you say!" She was displeased.

“……”

"Then did Daddy tell you why you don't worry?"

"Fight on the battlefield, defend your family and defend the country!"

"Then I'll call you brother, and you will take me to the northern frontier to conquer the southern wilderness?"

"I won't take you, that's the husband's business, you will only cry your nose."

Xiao Qiao looked at her proudly.

"Who cries nose! You said! Who the hell is crying nose! ”

She punched Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiao shouted in pain, and fell off the edge of the wall, fell to the ground and cried for A-Niang......

-

The streamer swept to Kiichi's face, and Kiyi held the streamer in his hand.

"Women also have a deep understanding of righteousness. The moon slave too, you ...... The same goes for the girl you're talking about. ”

Xiao Qiao was stunned, and then a smile melted into his face:

"Yes, but in fact, the sorrow of ten thousand families is not only hidden in a certain wall, but hidden in the hearts of everyone who has ten thousand families in their hearts."

She was a little drunk.

"So tonight's business, the right to watch the excitement, what do I have to worry about? Worried that my head is not enough to fall? It's just that I met the moon slave today, learned about the sixteenth, and found that I was just a fool who was deceived and bullied...... Gu Fox! You liar! ”

She shouted.

"But Kiichi, no matter what happens in the future, don't hide it from me, okay?"

Xiao Qiao turned his head sideways and looked at him.

There was a bright moon behind him, and the night breeze blew through his sideburns and swept his cheeks, and she thought he was very good-looking.

After a long time, he said softly, "Okay."

"Then aren't you afraid that I will lie to you?"

"If you say, I will believe."

Xiao Qiao chuckled, which reminded her of what Yuenu said to her today:

You asked me, and I believed you, and I answered.

But is she really trustworthy?

She lives in a fake shell and deceives everyone.

"Why do you believe in me so much? You can clearly leave me and go first today, and it is clear that I haven't been able to help you ask the question you want to ask the moon slave...... Why do you believe me? ”

"Intuition." He replied.

Xiao Qiao smiled:

"I said I was going to heal Sixteen's leg, and he believed; I said, I will make Ah Shuang the happiest woman in the world, and she believed; I didn't tell Yuenu that Hu Gongzi, whom she loved, was the Emperor of Daqi, whom she resented...... And she believed. ”

"I told the soldiers that I would take them home safely, and they believed...... But what?"

"I said, I'm Xiao Qiao, and everyone in the world believes it......"

"Why do you believe me?"

She obviously didn't do anything, she obviously failed all the people she cherished.

She suddenly felt that she didn't seem to have any qualifications to complain about Gu Beixuan for lying to her.

If he is a liar, why shouldn't she?

"You're drunk." Mu Yi stood up, picked her up, and prepared to send her back to the general's mansion.

"He lied to me, and I'm sad. But if one day you find out that I lied to you, will you be sad too?"

Mu Yi was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

"I don't want you to be sad too." Xiao Qiao said drunkly.

He sent Xiao Qiao to the general's mansion, but Xiao Qiao didn't want to go back to the room, and staggered forward, Mu Yi had no choice but to follow.

The place where Xiao Qiao came was the mourning hall, and she was still holding the pot of wine she had just drunk.

Push open the door, the soul is resting, the candle flame flickering and never sleeping.

"Dad, mother, I'm back."

Xiao Qiao smiled and knelt down and kowtowed.

Mu Yi stood behind her, looking at the spiritual position filled a whole wall, with the ancestors of the Xiao family in the middle, and some around were the slaves who were affected in the chaos.

Xiao Qiao put the wine on a coffin, just stared at it, and after a long time, she spoke: "You know...... Why do I always have to go to the battlefield with a coffin?"

"The Dead Are ......"

"Because Xiao Qiao lives in it......"

"Don't talk about it when you're drunk."

Wood knelt beside her, his hands on her shoulders.

After learning about her daughter's identity that day, based on the Xiao family's file and Xiao Qiao and Sixteen's reactions to the blue-robed trail that day, he had already guessed a rough idea.

He knew how important and unspeakable the secret was to her...... He didn't want this to happen just because Xiao Qiao was drunk and let him know.

But Xiao Qiao still looked at the coffin and said:

"His greatest wish is to become a general like his father, who stands up to the sky, fights on the battlefield, and protects the safety of the people......"

"I stole his life...... It's also that I owe Gu Beiling this life...... I'm not in a position to blame anyone. ”

"Xiao'er."

Xiao Qiao looked up in a daze......
