Chapter 10: Daddy

Mrs. Xu closed his eyes again: "You don't understand, I think your father fought bloodily and suffered more than ten injuries all over his body, so he got a five-grade black yarn." But now that Zhishi has returned to his hometown, it is a person who has gone to tea and cool, and even Liang Heng, a pig-like thing, dares to bark in front of me......" Speaking of this, there was a violent cough.

If Taigong had opened his eyes at this time, he would definitely be able to see the terrifying look on Xu Wei's face.

"That's it, it's my father who hurt you......" Xu Taigong opened his eyes, and his cloudy eyes were full of tears.

Xu Wei felt sour in his heart for no reason, and whispered: "Isn't it just a village soldier?" What's the big deal. ”

"Fart! What Lao Tzu said is that he hasn't disciplined you well over the years, so that you have become an idle scoundrel! People who are about to reach the age of weak crowns will achieve nothing, and when Lao Tzu is as old as you, he is already a commander! Xu Taigong scolded.

Xu Wei bumped his nose into ash, and he didn't want to contradict him, so he had to nod and said: "Yes, I'm a scoundrel, you can rest for a long time, I won't make you disgusting." ”

"This stubborn old man is really moody." Xu Wei smiled bitterly in his heart, turned around and left.

"Come back......" As soon as he took two and a half steps, Xu Taigong shouted.

Standing back in front of the bed, Xu Wei saw Taigong looking directly at him, and his cloudy eyes seemed to be clear.

After watching it for a long time, Mrs. Xu sighed: "Your mother is right, you look the most like me." You look exactly the same as when I was young, dignified and heroic, and those little daughters-in-law and big girls are all straight to the bottom when they see them. When he said this, his eyes lit up, and his face was yearning, as if he had returned to the time when he was young and frivolous.

"Is he praising me or himself?" This question has been circling in Xu Wei's mind.

When he was depressed, he heard Taigong say: "You have practiced martial arts well, but you are not playing tricks in Xiajin County when you go into battle." People see that you are my son, let you have a few points, and you will feel that you are the first in the world, and you will not be able to live forever. If you have a few enemies, you can use your fists and feet, and you don't lack this. It's against thousands of people, but you have to use your brains to ......"

"Isn't there a bowl of bean curd in my head?" Xu Wei said secretly.

The two fathers and sons had probably never communicated like this, and fell into an awkward silence for a while, even though Xu Wei could speak well now, in the face of a moody and stubborn old man, he really didn't know where to start. After a long time, I suddenly heard Xu Taigong say urgently: "Lao Jiu, you open that cabinet!" ”

Looking in the direction of his finger, a large black wooden cabinet leaned against the corner of the wall, as if it had not moved for thousands of years. Rufang opened the wooden cabinet, and a musty smell made him almost smoke it. If you look closely, why are all the rags in it? picked up a straight jacket, only to see several cuts, as if there were still faint traces of blood.

In an instant, Xu Wei understood that this was the old man's bloody clothes, and it was a testimony of his loyalty to the country and his bloody battlefield. Every piece of clothing in this cabinet probably represents a battle, and the old man has come over in this life, and it can be regarded as vigorous. Pitching is worthy of heaven and earth!

Looking through a few bloody clothes one after another, Xu Wei didn't know why he was panicked. At this time, I heard Xu Taigong's weak voice coming from behind: "There is a piece of armor under the clothes, you take it out." ”

Peeling off the pile of bloody clothes, there was indeed a cloth bag underneath, and when I opened it, it was a neatly folded pair of armor. It is made of carapace leaves, and it feels quite heavy to the touch, so it should be made of iron. Obviously, this armor was not the equipment of ordinary soldiers, because each blade was polished very smooth and neat, with a black glow.

Holding the armor and coming to the Taigong's bed, the old man ignored Xu Wei's dissuasion, insisted on getting out of bed, took the armor, and wanted to put it on for him himself. Looking at Xu Taigong, who was in his last years, he struggled to put on his arms and tie his armor for himself, and every movement seemed to be about to exhaust his last bit of strength. Even when he was tying his armor, he had to take a break and catch for a while before he could continue. But the old man was so careful, and every place was very carefully arranged, as if the women were doing needlework.

With great difficulty putting on the armor for his son, Xu Taigong couldn't support it anymore, and sat on the edge of the bed out of breath. After a little relaxation, he looked at Xu Wei from head to toe, and when he saw his son's heroic appearance, a smile appeared on his face: "In the end, it is my Xu Zhang's species." After a pause, he took a breath and continued, "This armor has a great origin, and it was originally a battle armor of the old race. At that time, our army was unable to attack for a long time, and after the prime minister summoned me to go, he said, 'Break the city, give me armor!' If you don't break it, take your head! So I took two hundred of my brothers, clothed in heavy armor, and struck open the gates. After the war, I will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and I will have two hundred brothers, and there will be seven remaining......"

Perhaps thinking of the robe that died in battle, Xu Taigong's expression was dark, and he couldn't speak.

"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, the same is true in ancient and modern times." Xu Wei said in a low voice.

When Xu Taigong heard this, he laughed miserably and shook his head. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Xu Wei for a while, but this time, his eyes stayed on his son's face.

"Don't you think I'm more handsome than you were when you were younger?" Xu Wei saw that his eyes were red, and said deliberately.

Sure enough, Mrs. Xu snorted: "I was much more handsome than you when I was young, get out!" Then he lay back on his bed and said no more.

Xu Wei walked to the door, and suddenly recalled the heavy sigh outside his room last night, the word "Dad" was about to burst out of his mouth several times, but it seemed that something was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't call it out.

When I went out of the room, I saw that Xu Wang's family had sent Lang Zhong away, and he was standing under the eaves and weeping secretly.

Seeing the little uncle come out, Xu Wang hurriedly wiped away the tears with his sleeve, Xu Wei asked her what the doctor said, she couldn't say why, the former knew in his heart, the situation was probably not optimistic.

Seeing his sister-in-law's sad appearance, Xu Wei wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start, so he had to say, "As a child, just do your best, sister-in-law doesn't have to be too sad." Xu Wang's family has been married to the Xu family for more than ten years, and he has single-handedly pulled his little uncle to grow up.

In the evening, Xu Wei was rolling up his sleeves and riding on the long stone in the courtyard to sharpen his knife. Stunned, he sharpened a rusty Pu knife to a bright and sharp body, and gently scraped the edge with his fingers, and actually drew a bloody hole. Immediately put on the handle of the knife, and when he was happy, he suddenly saw Yang Yan and Ma Tai and the two of them breaking in, one carrying a firewood knife and the other carrying a plate axe, both wearing a cowhide armor, and shouted when they entered the door: "Brother Jiu, it's not good!" Big things are wrong! ”

Xu Weizheng was angry about Taigong being angry by Liang Heng, and when he heard this, he shouted: "Crow's mouth, what is a big thing bad?" Is the sky falling? ”

Yang Ma and the two ran out of breath, especially Ma Tai, because of his obesity, his face was full of sweat at this time, and the clothes in the armor were all attached to his body, and he said breathlessly: "It's true." ”

Yang Yan said: "Liang Heng, that bastard, our Xujiazhuang has ordered more than 300 brave people, and he just took away 200 people, saying that he was taking them to the county." That's not all, all the strong men he pulled away were over 20 years old and under 40 years old, and the more than 100 people left for us were either old and weak, or teenage raw melons and eggs, damn, this time it's time to stop cooking. ”

Xu Wei gritted his teeth fiercely and said angrily: "Don't be afraid, a living person can still suffocate urine?" Anyway, there is still time, prepare well, those thieves are really going to Xujiazhuang, let's come to a strong wall and clear the wilderness, and wait for work. ”

Mattei wiped his sweat, shook his head and said, "Brother, I don't have that kung fu." My uncle and his family had just fled to my house for refuge. It is said that the gang of thieves has looted Wucheng County and is coming to Xiajin, I am afraid that it will come after dark. If you want to go to Xiajin County, Xujiazhuang will bear the brunt. My mother is already packing up her things and preparing to take refuge in the Daimyo's Mansion. ”

Hearing the sound, Xu Wang's face was so frightened that he shouted in a trembling voice: "What can I do about this? My father-in-law is bedridden, where can we escape? ”

Xu Wei was silent for a while, if it was really like what Ma Tai said, the thief would arrive after dark, then Xujiazhuang would be really dangerous. Damn, Liang Heng must have known the news, so he hurriedly pulled away two hundred people. This grandson, knowing that Xujiazhuang was in trouble, but he didn't report it, and the next time he bumped into him, he was killed with a knife!

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Xu Wang asked cautiously: "It's almost dark, ninth brother, what should we do?" "My father-in-law is old and bedridden, my husband is away on business, and my brother-in-law is the pillar of the family.

"Sister-in-law, don't panic, I have everything in everything, you take care of the elderly, I will come when I go." Xu Wei said, striding out with a knife, and Yang Ma and the two followed closely behind.

As soon as he went out, he bumped into Zhang Qing, carrying a bow on his back and hanging a pot of arrows, and was about to speak, when his mouth opened, and he heard Xu Wei say: "It's just right, you go and inform Bao Zheng and that, the head of the township soldiers, let them gather people and horses, and bring the guys." ”

Zhang Qing originally looked anxious, but seeing Xu Wei's calm appearance, he felt a little relieved, and nodded: "Okay!" I'll go right away! ”

Xu Wei slapped him on the shoulder: "Brother, this time it's not a group fight in the county, it's a real thing!" ”

Zhang Qingyi gritted his teeth: "I know!" With that, turn around and leave.

Taking a deep breath and carrying the knife on his shoulder, Xu Wei asked in a deep voice, "What direction is Wucheng County in?" Where is Qianniu Mountain? ”

Yang Yan thought for a moment and replied: "Wucheng County is directly south of Xiajin, more than ninety miles apart, and Qianniu Mountain is between the two counties, and it is estimated that it is about fifty miles away from Xiajin County. ”

Fifty miles? Then it will be there tonight!

"Brother Jiu, what are we going to do?" Yang Yan's voice revealed a little nervousness.

"Before Lao Qian set up a trick to deceive people, he would find out the surrounding situation, and then spread the news to lure people into the bait. The first thing we need to do now is to survey the terrain, and then spread the news to lure the thief into the bait. As long as they take the bait......" Xu Wei's face flashed with cruelty that was extremely inappropriate for his age. (For the sake of Mo Ran's update so early, are the brothers rewarding a few votes?) )
