The dusk wind whined through the scattered ruins.

There used to be people who took care of red makeup at home, some people sharpened knives in the backyard, some children chased and frolicked like yellow birds, some fathers and mothers loved and enjoyed themselves, there were chickens and dogs barking at night, there were newlyweds murmuring, and there were new mourners crying......

It's just that I don't know who made them all innocent corpses?

I didn't answer for a long time, and in the bamboo alley, the sound of horses' hooves sounded for a long time, splashing a thick sadness that could not be dissolved.

"Yesterday, you and I accompanied the man up to the back mountain ......"

Gu Yuchen's warm voice sounded from behind him, as if he was just gossiping.

But I felt a chill down my spine.

Sure enough, it was Chengluan.

"How does Gu Gongzi know?"

Gu Yuchen was silent for a moment, and Fang said slowly: "In this bamboo alley, there are Yuchen's clansmen, and Yuchen knows it. ”

I couldn't help but stiffen.

"Yuchen's parents died of illness when he was a child, and I lived here with my uncle and uncle, and when I was older, I went to Yuqingguan to cultivate...... Five years ago, when I returned to Chuanzhu Lane, there was already a river of blood......"

Gu Yuchen's tone was slightly gloomy: "Yuchen was timid, hiding behind a tree, watching King Luan command his soldiers to slaughter everyone in the village......"

That day, Cheng Luan stared at his blood-red eyes, waved his arms incessantly, and roared at the soldiers holding steel knives in his hands-

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The unarmed people had no power to fight back, and could only hold the hands of their relatives in the red blood......

That night, the thunder roared, the rain poured out, the blood on the ground was gushing, and the heavy rain washed away all the blood, all the wailing, and the stains of crime left by Cheng Luan's hands......

The fifteen-year-old boy Gu Yuchen howled helplessly in the roaring rainstorm, he pulled and buried the bodies of all his relatives in the lightning and thunder, and used all his strength in the torrential rain......

And now, he is next to me, dressed in white, slowly telling this past, as if he is telling someone else's story.

I reined in my horse. The breathing was rapid and heavy, and the cuihan behind him was already sobbing.

Desperately controlling his emotions, he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth:

"Why?"

At this moment, all around us, there are countless ghosts of tragic deaths, who are full of grief and indignation, crying and crying, unable to die!

But in the end, he didn't want to go back.

Gu Yuchen rode forward and walked side by side with me.

"It is said that he was in a bad mood, drunk, and vented his anger on these villagers!"

Gu Yuchen's eyes were clear and indifferent, and he didn't see any sadness, as if he was chatting with me.

But my blood was surging, and my fingers holding the reins were turning white.

"Why didn't you tell me yesterday?"

Perhaps, I will kill him with one arrow.

Gu Yucheng actually smiled faintly: "Will Jin Se kill him?" He breathed a long sigh of relief, "If you want to kill, you would have done it a long time ago, why wait until now?" ”

My heart was stagnant, and I couldn't help but turn my head to look at him carefully, Gu Yuchen, he is really good at probing people's hearts!

"Keep this idiot because he still has a lot of secrets behind him, isn't it?"

Gu Yuchen turned his head to look at me, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

At this point, we knew that he wasn't as dusty as he seemed.

Beneath his breezy appearance, there is a bottomless pain—

He had seen his relatives die tragically in front of him......

"Hehe......"

A gray shadow passed over us with a long laugh, and did not stop, but continued to move in front of us.

Gu Yuchen and I glanced at each other, and then rode forward.

Out of the bamboo alley, the crazy old man was gone.

Under the shade of the trees next to the sandy road ahead, there were several people pulling wooden carts in the distance.

Perhaps they heard the sound of horses' hooves and avoided them early.

When I got closer, I saw the man at the head, and I couldn't help but immediately restrain my horse.

"Tall!"

Gu Yuchen also stopped on the side and looked at Gao Da with a smile.

"Girl, girl!" After Gao Da saw that it was me, he immediately smiled and pulled everyone to point at me.

"Girl, you're back! Little old man, I heard that you went to the border to become a general, and you were attacked by a sneak attack, so I am very worried......"

As he spoke, he lifted his sleeve and wiped his eyes.

I was moved in my heart, and hurriedly dismounted with Cuihan and greeted the crowd.

The tall man trembled his goatee, wiped away his tears and said, "Girl, Gu Gongzi, where are you going?" ”

After I briefly explained it to him, he shouted, "Why are you going to the West again!" Girl, you must not, you are a woman, you must be more than lucky......"

I didn't answer, but he reached out and slapped myself.

"Bah, bah, look at my foul mouth! Girl, I mean, fighting is a man's business, and women are in the barracks, I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with those tigers and wolves......"

Looking at the tall man at this time, my heart was sour.

Only to bite her lip with desperation, forcing into the tears that were about to flow.

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about being tall. The order of the lord of the country cannot be violated, and Jinse also has his own way to save his life! ”

I smiled at him, in fact, I knew in my heart that the real Hades was coming to ask for my life, what could I do?

When Gao Da saw me say this, his expression was slightly relieved.

He looked at Gu Yuchen on the side and said, "Gu Gongzi, you have to take good care of the girl, the little old man knows that although you don't know martial arts, you are very tight!" ”

Seeing that I was puzzled, Gao Da explained: "Girl, I am ashamed to say that my two brothers came to buy this village that day, but there were only eight hundred taels of silver left in their hands. The Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Kyoto are at least 1,000 taels. ”

Saying this, he deliberately paused for a moment, and seeing that I didn't want to blame, he touched his nose and continued: "My two brothers have been walking for a long time, and they have inquired about many people before they found this cheap place, but as soon as the person opened his mouth, he asked for three thousand taels, saying that this is a blessed land surrounded by mountains and rivers, obediently, I was scared of the two of them, and I was about to leave, and Gu Gongzi came!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at Gu Yuchen with admiration, and Gu Yuchen also smiled faintly and nodded at him gently.

"Gu Gongzi only said a word, and the person dropped to 1,200 taels, and we and Gu Gongzi were half of each other, and there was a balance of 200 taels. What admiration, admiration! ”

I only knew that they bought the same Zhuangzi as Gu Yuchen, but I didn't know why.

said to Gao Daodao: "It's hard work!" ”

Gao Da waved his hand: "If the girl doesn't blame us, we have not dared to tell you for so many years." Hey, before...... That Miss Luo wanted to come to see you, Zhuangzi, and we didn't dare to let her come......"

"Jin Se and Yuchen bought a Zhuangzi together," Gu Yuchen interjected at this time, "Why does she blame you?" ”

I couldn't help but look at him, this man was occasionally unpredictable.

"Ah, won't blame, won't blame. Son, girl, hurry up, it's getting dark. ”

Said with a tall arch, and then beckoned everyone to pull the cart and leave.

At this time, the sunset had already set in the mountains, and I looked at the tall and the crowd gradually moving away, and my heart was full of emotion.

"What is Jinse thinking?"

"I'm thinking," I looked at Gu Yuchen, tilted my head and smiled, "Tall, their lives are really simple, Gu Gongzi just bargained and bought a Zhuangzi, and they thought you were very tight!" ”

Gu Yuchen was stunned for a moment, and Fang Haha smiled: "Jin Se, you started joking with Yuchen!" ”

I also laughed: "What did Gu Gongzi say to the seller?" ”

"Jin Se really wants to hear it?"

"Of course."

"Confidentiality."

Gu Yuchen hooked his lips and smiled, then turned over and got on the horse, "drove", and left in the dust.

I laughed.

"Cuihan, get on the horse!"

Cui Han obediently took my hand.

Two fast horses galloped like the wind in the night.

"Gu Gongzi, your riding skills are good!"

"Yuchen is self-taught, but Erer!"

"Oh, that happens to be Jinse, too!"

"Hahaha!"

……

This world is desolate, but those who walk must always find joy and move on.

Galloping all the way, when I arrived in Kyoto, it was just the beginning of the lanterns, and it was not yet curfew time.

I remembered what Gu Yuchen said, and when I was still a few feet away from the city gate, I slowed down and watched.

"Gu Gongzi, it seems that your hexagram is not very effective, and there is no one waiting for Jinse at the city gate!" I laughed leisurely.

Gu Yuchen smiled silently.

I don't bother with it.

I just walked into the city, and it took less than a stick of incense.

"Look at the move!" A clear whistle came from above, and I hurriedly raised my arm to block it.

A man in a suit swung his fist at me.

I smiled when I saw it - it was Yuan Qing.

What Gu Yuchen said was not bad.

"Sister!"

Yuan Qing was already smiling and standing in front of the horse.

I turned over and dismounted: "Yuan Qing, do you come with me every time?" ”

Yuan Qing had already seen Gu Yuchen and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Gu Yuchen smiled lightly and returned the salute: "Yuchen? ”

"Surname Yu?"

"The surname is Gu, Gu Yuchen."

Yuan Qing smiled brightly: "Brother Gu, little brother Yuan Qing." ”

After speaking, Yuan Qing suddenly turned his head and secretly squeezed his eyes at me.

I was stunned, but when I understood what he meant, I shook my head at him hurriedly.

"Yuan Qing, why are you here?" I'm trying to digress the subject.

As soon as Yuan Qing heard my words, he gave me a dignified military salute with a "snap", and randomly landed on one knee and clenched his hands into fists.

"Yuan Qing, the deputy general under the command of General Jinse in the Western Territory, has seen the general!"

I froze, and I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.

"What did you say?"

Yuan Qing stood up suddenly: "Sister, this time I go to the Western Realm, I am your deputy general!" ”

I still don't believe it, how can this be?

I turned my head to look at Gu Yuchen, who was still looking at our sister and brother with a light smile. It seems to have been calculated a long time ago!

I looked at Cui Han again, and she, like me, had her mouth half open, and she couldn't believe it.

Isn't Yuan Qing Bai Muyan's attendant? Why did you suddenly become my lieutenant again?

Everything in this world is changing so fast, I haven't seen it for a few days, and it seems to have changed the world!

"Yuan Qing, what's going on?"

Yuan Qing held my shoulders: "Sister, aren't you happy?" I can go to war too! The two of us can fight side by side! ”

"Yuan Qing, I mean, didn't you follow Bai Muyan, how could you ......?"

"Sister, I am a native of Li after all, and it is my task to protect the county lord of Qiu State!"

"So, how did you become this lieutenant?"

"It was personally chosen by the lord of the country!" Yuan Qing's eyes were scorching, just like the one who was full of ambition in Fulan Garden back then.

"How will the lord of the kingdom know about you?"

He's just a little secret guard, not even a guard!

"Sister, have you forgotten who I am?"

I'm stunned again - is it Cheng Hao?
