Cao Tianque sat down along the edge of the bed, he sighed, but Lu Zhao on the side still maintained his original posture as if he had not noticed his existence, and even he, the general, did not want to pay attention to it.

This is almost different from the strong-blooded young man in his impression, and as a person who has come over, Cao Tianque naturally knows where the root of the problem is.

"There's nothing going on in the camp today, I'm so bored that I might as well tell you a story?"

Cao Tianque looked at Lu Zhao, who just raised his head slightly and glanced at him without saying anything more.

Cao Tianque felt quite helpless, he stretched out his hand into his arms, and took out half of the residual jade and handed it to Lu Zhao's eyes, looking at the shape of the jade seems to be a hollow fish, the shape and carving are exquisite, but I don't know why it has become such a broken appearance at this moment.

"Everyone has an unbearable past, this is what we must experience in this troubled world, not only you, I have also killed people."

As he spoke, Cao Tianque's eyes had unconsciously drifted into the distance, and the bloodstained face appeared in front of him again, making his heart ache faintly.

Seeing that Cao Tianque didn't speak for a long time, Lu Zhao slowly raised his head, and he found that the awe-inspiring general's eyes were already full of tears at this moment.

Before Lu Zhao could say more, Cao Tianque slowly spoke about the past that he didn't want to recall.

That year, Cao Tianque was still a teenager who had just been able to draw a bow and shoot arrows on horseback, as a descendant of the gate, Cao Tianque's talent was not considered smart, on the contrary, compared to his peers, he was much inferior, it can be said that Cao Tianque at that time was like an inconspicuous grass, as if the wind would disperse, and his brother Cao Tianlei, who had been by his side, was like a bright moon in the sky, exuding a brilliance that people could not ignore. Back then, Cao Tianque was more sure than anyone else that his brother would be a feared general in the future, but all this was destroyed by Cao Tianque's own hands.

That year, there was a war report from the border pass, and Cao Tianlei was ordered to rush to the border immediately to fight with the old general, and after getting the news, Cao Tianlei did not slack off, and hurriedly put on armor and crossed the horse to help, but was stopped by the young Cao Tianque.

Cao Tianque is Cao Tianlei's only younger brother, the father of the two often fights with his grandfather and rarely returns home, and Cao Tianque's biological mother has long been dead with a stubborn disease, the so-called eldest brother is like a father, Cao Tianque is almost brought up by his brother, and now his brother is about to travel far away, he is naturally reluctant to go with him.

However, fighting is not child's play, Cao Tianlei, who has always doted on his younger brother, naturally would not agree to such a nonsense request, he did not stay long, but directly handed Cao Tianque to the housekeeper on the side to take care of and rode away.

But he didn't know the weight of his own heart in this young man, Cao Tianque sneaked away through the back door soon after his brother left, taking advantage of the housekeeper's inattention, he remembered the way to the border pass, so he secretly took a shortcut and waited for his brother at a post station in front.

At that time, Cao Tianque was still an ignorant teenager, he didn't know what was waiting for him in front of him, and he didn't know that his stupid behavior would kill his favorite brother.

Cao Tianque had just dismounted at the post station and surrounded a group of people, who looked at his appearance and looked at the portrait in their hands, and nodded.

"Is that him?"

"It shouldn't be, the descendant of the Cao family shouldn't be so young, it's probably a brother, but with this guy, we can get twice the result with half the effort this time, maybe we can bring this guy back and ask for more rewards."

Although Cao Tianque is young, he is not a fool, he knows that this group of people is going to be bad for his brother, and he must now find a way to get out and inform his brother.

He hurriedly drew the blade from his waist to maneuver with the group to find an opportunity to escape, but they were all tall, and after a few rounds he had beaten them half to death without getting out.

"This is also the descendant of the Cao family?" Several strong men sneered and carried Cao Tianque on their shoulders, they looked around, and finally landed their eyes on a willow tree on the side.

Cao Tianlei felt a little uneasy in his heart, he always felt that something would happen, seeing that he was about to arrive at the post station in front of him, he was also a little tired after running all afternoon, and he was going to take a break, maybe this inexplicable uneasiness was just because he was too tired.

But as the distance shortened, the inexplicable sense of anxiety in Cao Tianlei's heart became even worse, and he was about to stop the horse to find the origin of this feeling, but he skimmed to a willow tree not far away.

"Tianque?" Cao Tianlei looked at the willow tree in astonishment, and the person tied to it was clearly his younger brother Cao Tianque.

And Cao Tianque, who was dying at this moment, heard his brother's voice, and when he raised his head and saw the familiar shadow, his heart suddenly tightened.

"Run, don't come here!"

However, it was too late, and the sharp arrows pierced towards Cao Tianlei like rain, Cao Tianlei knew that there was an ambush, and hurriedly rode his horse to dodge, as if he was shuttling in the rain of arrows like a flexible fish, looking at such a brother, Cao Tianque couldn't help but widen his eyes, it turned out that this was a strong man?

The rain of arrows fell, the old horse fell to the ground with a bang, blood spread from under it, and before Cao Tianlei could say goodbye to it, several strong men came out of the grass, and they waved the scimitars in their hands and slashed towards Cao Tianlei.

Huns!

Cao Tianque couldn't help but widen his eyes, but before he could react, the brother in front of him shuttled around those strong Huns like a whirlwind, as fast as lightning and like thunder......

Some of those Huns were directly overturned to the ground before they could use a move and a half, and just when Cao Tianque thought that everything had settled, a knife was across his neck.

"Cao Tianlei, who do you see here?"

The Huns grabbed Cao Tianque's hair and pressed the scimitar against his delicate neck.

Cao Tianlei couldn't help but widen his eyes, his gaze was tightly locked on the scimitar and he couldn't move a bit.

"If you are captured, I will spare your brother's life, otherwise ......"

Cao Tianque only felt a cold neck, and then some warm liquid flowed down, Cao Tianlei tightly grasped the blade in his hand, but he still gently let go of his hand when he looked at the blade that was getting closer and closer.

The Huns raised the corners of their mouths slightly, he waved his hand towards the only three remaining subordinates, and the three hurriedly stepped forward, suddenly Cao Tianlei's face changed, and he pulled out the blade in his hand and stabbed at the Hun soldiers beside Cao Tianque.

These impartialities happened to be stabbed on the man's head, and at the same time, the three knives also fell on Cao Tianlei's back.

"Brother!" Cao Tianque's voice was hoarse, blood Cao Tianlei's back spread, he endured the pain and straightened up suddenly, and let out a roar, and the three Hun soldiers actually gave him a few steps back.

At this moment, the man's eyes were full of murderous aura, and before he could react to a few people, he had already rushed to a person, and he suddenly raised his hand to grab the scimitar in the man's hand.
