Chapter 21: Men Have Tears

Half an hour's journey from Yuyang City to Zhaojia Village, Zhao Ming only took two quarters of an hour to arrive. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Some people outside Zhao Ming's house were watching the excitement and whispering something.

When he arrived at the door of the house, Zhao Ming turned over and dismounted and rushed towards the house.

I went to my house with Dou Lan first, and there were some cloth needles and threads scattered at the door of the house, which Dou Lan used to make clothes for herself.

The tables in the room were a little messy and cluttered, and the rest was nothing.

"Lan'er, Lan'er! Mother, mother! Where are you?! Zhao Ming shouted and found two rooms in his house, but there was no one.

Then Zhao Ming rushed up and pulled the people who lived outside his house to watch, and said loudly: "Auntie, auntie, have you seen my mother?" Have you seen my lady? ā€

The woman who was called her aunt shook her head, and Zhao Ming let go of her and grabbed the next one and asked.

After a while, Dou Jingye came with a team of soldiers and horses, about two hundred people, all on horseback.

When he arrived at the entrance of Zhaojia Village, Dou Jingye stopped, dismounted and came to Zhao Ming's side, grabbed him and said, "Zhao Ming, you are useless like this!" Let's go and chase Dou Lan back together! ā€

Hearing Dou Jingye's voice, Zhao Ming nodded in a panic and said, "Yes, yes, let's chase it back!" ā€

After speaking, he pushed Dou Jingye away in a panic, ran to his horse, turned over his horse, and chased in the direction of Khitan.

Dou Jingye also hurriedly chased Zhao Ming with two hundred cavalry.

As soon as Zhao Ming and Dou Jingye left, Zhao Pu arrived, pondered on the horse's back for a while, and then gritted his teeth and urged the horse to chase them......

Ten miles away from the Khitan boundary, five Khitans were riding on horses, panting and looking ahead, two of them each had a woman lying in front of them, who seemed to have passed out.

"Huh, the front is the boundary of our Khitan, you can put your heart down." The leading Khitan exhaled and said.

"General, why are we going back to tie these two women back?" The Khitan man beside him pointed to the woman in front of him and asked puzzledly.

Yelu Ruan glanced at him, then his eyes drifted to the sky, and he said with a little longing: "They are useful to me!" It's just a glimmer of possibility, but it's always a try, isn't it? ā€

"General, I really don't know what use these two women can have!" The Khitan man next to him continued.

"Enemy Lie, the existence of the two of them can help me control him, if everything he said is really fulfilled, then he will be a great fortune!" Yelu Ruan looked at Xiao Dilie and said softly.

"Who is he? That Han Chinese general? What did he say? Xiao Dilie asked suspiciously.

"You don't need to know what he said, but it's a great advantage for me!" Yelu Ruan said, sneering, "I think he must regret letting me go now." ā€

……

Zhao Ming really regretted it at this time, he rode on the horse and galloped wildly, and after the small forest where the Khitans were ambushed a few days ago, there was no trace of Dou Lan and his mother, and he was extremely anxious.

Dou Jingye and two hundred soldiers followed not far behind Zhao Ming, also advancing at full speed.

Behind Dou Jingye's large army, he followed Zhao Pu, shouting and chasing.

Dou Jingye rode on his horse, looked around, and estimated that he would reach the border of the Khitan after about a hundred miles, so he shouted to Zhao Ming: "Zhao Ming, stop, the front is almost to the border of the Khitan!" ā€

Zhao Ming was about to be stunned, riding on the horse, deaf to Dou Jingye's voice, and still moving forward at full speed.

Dou Jingye looked at Zhao Ming's state, and he was also anxious in his heart, but he had nothing to say, thinking: Anyway, there are still more than a hundred miles, and it doesn't matter if you chase dozens of miles.

Thinking like this, he shouted to the soldiers: "Brothers, run faster!" ā€

Then the team was a little bit faster.

Zhao Pu chased behind, and suddenly found that the distance between himself and the large army in front of him was far away, took a deep breath, endured the pain of his thighs and stomachs being rubbed, and slapped the whip in his hand to the horse's buttocks, and accelerated forward.

……

The sky gradually darkened, and everyone had chased from noon to evening, and this place was only a dozen miles away from the Khitan border.

Zhao Ming was still moving forward at a high speed at this time.

And Dou Jingye had already chased after Zhao Ming's side, and shouted at Zhao Ming: "Zhao Ming, don't chase it!" In front of it is the border of the Khitan! ā€

Zhao Ming chased for most of the day, the strength of the wine gradually dissipated, and reason returned to his body, at this time, when he heard Dou Jingye's voice, he reined in the horse, turned over and dismounted, walked to the side of the road with his legs a little vain, sat down with his buttocks, and then bent his legs, hugged his hands on his legs, and his chin rested on his knees.

Dou Jingye saw that Zhao Ming restrained the horse, and hurriedly waved his hand to make the soldiers stop, then dismounted and walked to Zhao Ming's side, squatted down, patted Zhao Ming's shoulder, and comforted softly: "Brother Zhao, don't worry, brother and sister, they will be fine!" ā€

When Zhao Ming heard this, he looked up at Dou Jingye, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Brother Dou, I hate myself so much, why didn't I listen to what you said and kill them all, I hate them all so much!" ā€

Zhao Ming said, two tears slipped down the corners of his eyes.

His wife and mother were taken away by the Khitans, and he was very afraid in his heart, afraid that something would happen to them!

At this time, Zhao Ming was as he said, he hated himself so much. Why did he let Yelu Ruan go because of his own impromptu thoughts? Why didn't anyone watch them leave after Yelu Ruan was released?

Zhao Ming blamed all the blame on himself!

Therefore, he blamed himself in his heart, and the more he blamed himself, the more sad he became, and the tears in his eyes slipped down uncontrollably.

The boy has tears and doesn't flick, but he hasn't reached the sad place!

"It's not your fault, it's that the Khitans are too insidious!" Dou Jingye shook his head and said.

"No, that's my fault, I want to get benefits from Yelu Ruan, so I let him go. It's all my fault, I'm too greedy! I'm damned! ā€

Zhao Ming looked up at the sunset, red as blood, so his eyes were dyed red, and he slammed one hand to the ground, and said lunarly: "I should die, but I don't want to die!" I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him with my own hands!" Whether Lan'er is okay or not, I'm going to kill him! ā€

As he spoke, his eyes were suddenly confused, and then full of tenderness, he remembered what Dou Lan had done for himself, remembered Dou Lan's smile, and said in an extremely gentle voice: "I promised Lan'er that I would marry her, and I also promised her that I would put ten miles of red makeup for her, Lan'er will definitely see it, she will see it!" ā€

Zhao Ming's right hand slammed to the ground, and the blood slowly seeped out, but he didn't react at all, as if it wasn't his hand that was bleeding.

Dou Jingye looked at Zhao Ming's appearance, and couldn't help but hate the Khitans even more, suppressed the hatred in his heart, and then comforted Zhao Ming: "Don't worry, your younger sister and eldest mother will be fine, you can put your heart in your stomach." ā€

"Big brother!" As soon as Dou Jingye's voice fell, Zhao Pu shouted and ran over.

Zhao Ming's eyes were fixed on the setting sun and ignored it.

Dou Jingye stood up, turned his head to look at Zhao Pu, and thought in his heart that although he was young, he was also a scholar, so he should be able to persuade Zhao Ming back! So he sighed and said, "Tell me about him." ā€

Hearing this, Zhao Pu walked to Zhao Ming's side and squatted down, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Zhao Ming's cheeks, and said, "Brother Zhao Ming, don't worry, I think my sister-in-law and aunt will be fine." ā€

Zhao Pu's words fell, and Zhao Ming's head turned to him, with doubts in his eyes.

"Big brother, you see, these Khitan people came to our village, just kidnapped their sister-in-law and aunt, but did not rob the villagers' food, it stands to reason that the Khitan people should be the most interested in food, but this time they only robbed two people, I think there is something to ask for, since they have something to ask for, then, before what they asked for is not achieved, the people who were robbed will be safe! As for what they are asking for, it is not known! Zhao Pu chased Zhao Ming and Dou Jingye along the way, and he also thought about why the Khitans kidnapped Zhao Ming's family, these were all things he thought of.

Hearing what Zhao Pu said, Zhao Ming's eyes lit up, and he murmured: "Yes, yes, they have something to ask for, so they will be fine, haha, they will be fine!" ā€

Zhao Ming said, got up and hugged Zhao Pu, and said with some joy: "Xiaopu, thank you!" ā€

Zhao Pu scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Big brother, you are too worried about the safety of your sister-in-law and aunt, otherwise you would have thought of it earlier." ā€

Zhao Ming let go of Zhao Pu, shook his head and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiaopu." Then he looked at Dou Jingye and said, "Brother Dou, thank you." ā€

Dou Jingye shook his hand and said, "It's good if you figure it out, don't worry, they'll be fine!" ā€

Then he looked back and forth, and then said, "You wait here in this wilderness, and I will take people to find some food." Xiaopu, you help Zhao Ming bandage his hands. ā€

After saying that, he led the people to look for food.

Zhao Ming looked at Dou Jingye's back, then glanced at the sunset, his eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze was sharp, and he said softly in his heart: Yelu Ruan, you have done a good job, I have written down this revenge, and I will repay it in the future!

Zhao Pu listened to Dou Jingye's words, looked at Zhao Ming's right hand, and then said anxiously: "Oh, big brother, why did your hand become like this?" Come on, I'll wrap it up for you! ā€

Zhao Pu said, looked back and forth, but couldn't find a place, so he tore a strip of cloth on his body and prepared to wrap it for Zhao Ming.

But after grabbing Zhao Ming's hand, he saw the dirt on the wound on his hand, and blew lightly for a few breaths, but he couldn't blow it clean, and said in embarrassment: "Big brother, how to clean this wound?" ā€

Zhao Ming cleaned up his mood, looked at Zhao Pu and shook his head gently, and said, "Xiaopu, it's out of the way." ā€

"That's going to be my motivation! A warning to me! Let it be like this, I need to remember it! ā€

Zhao Ming said, his eyes were deep and firm!
