Chapter Seventy-Two: On the Road

When Lu Chengkong first came to this strange world and was about to have a nervous breakdown, only Pang An and Zhong Liruo made him feel gratified. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

But today, Pang An is dead, and Zhongli Ruo will never belong to him. The two reliefs were shattered at the same time, and Lu Chengkong no longer had any thoughts. He also thought about dying, maybe if he died, he would really go back...... But at the moment when he was about to put it into action, the animal's instinct stopped him, and he couldn't help laughing at himself: "Lu Chengkong, Lu Chengkong, you don't even have the courage to commit suicide, what a waste!" ”

For several months, Lu Chengkong only curled up on the bed decadently except for eating, and did not say a word to Lu Liang, and the confident scholar on weekdays was gone...... Lu Liang was anxious but couldn't do anything, so he could only wait on the sidelines.

Another month passed.

Lu Liang prepared the meal and walked into Lu Chengkong's room, only to see that his eyes were dull and there was no trace of brilliance. Lu Liang's heart was uncomfortable, but he still endured it, forced his spirit, and said, "Chengkong, come and eat." ”

The two came to the table and sat down, Lu Chengkong picked up the bowl and secretly glanced at Lu Liang, only to feel that the big man in front of him was much older, and there was no longer any Jianghu Qi on his body, and he was completely crushed by this world.

Lu Liang was most concerned about Lu Chengkong's injury, and asked, "Is your leg healed?" I saw that the medicinal wine was almost finished, and I went to get another bottle in the afternoon. ”

Lu Chengkong patted his leg vigorously and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, don't waste it, I can only walk a few steps." If you walk for a while, you will still be limping, and no matter how much medicine you wipe, it will be useless, and it will not be cured. ”

Seeing that Lu Chengkong was lower, Lu Liang became more resolute, and said: "If your leg is broken, it will be broken, and it will be a big deal that you won't be able to do farm work in the future." Speaking of this, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, took a deep breath, and said, "It's been more than half a year since you secretly ran into the barracks, and no one cares about it anymore...... I still have some savings in the past few years, and in a few days, I will ask someone to find Master Li Si, and for the sake of your grandfather's face, he may be able to restore your qualifications as an apprentice. ”

Lu Chengkong also put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked at Lu Liang expressionlessly. He didn't expect that the big man in front of him would actually throw away all his dignity and send money to Li Si.

Lu Liang said again: "Although your grandfather still has some prestige in Ying County, I still understand the truth of a son of heaven and a courtier. If not, it doesn't matter, your uncle is in Ze County, and when your leg is completely healed, you can go there to get a job. ”

"If it's my leg...... Couldn't it be better? ”

Lu Liang also knew that it was very rare for Lu Chengkong to return to normal, but he would never say it, and said in a firm tone: "It will definitely be good!" If you don't want to go to Zexian, it's okay, wait for next year, I will tell you a daughter-in-law, and when you marry a daughter-in-law, our family will live in peace and stability. ”

"Marry a daughter-in-law......" Lu Chengkong thought of Zhong Liruo's appearance, and he couldn't say how the bitterness in his heart could not be expressed. After a while, he looked at Lu Liang and said, "Why are you so good to me?" ”

"Why?" Lu Liang said in a tone as steady as Mount Tai: "Because I am your father!" ”

These days, Lu Chengkong is huddled at home, thinking about everything that happened over and over again. He blamed himself for using Pang An, Lu Liang, and everyone around him, thinking that if he was smart, he could control everything. But he is not the Lu Chengkong they know, this is deception......

But in the end, Lu Liang was still unreservedly good to himself. Lu Chengkong listened to Lu Liang's heartfelt words, and he could already feel that he could give up everything for himself and not ask for anything in return.

Lu Chengkong glanced up at Lu Liang again, and wanted to confess all this to him, and tell him what happened to him completely. But when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say it, because if he said it, it would only make the poor father in front of him suffer a bigger blow, and Lu Chengkong no longer wanted to make the people around him sad.

"Chengkong, don't bear it, cry if you want to. There is no one else at home, and there is no shame. Lu Liang knew that Lu Chengkong was desperately suppressing his discomfort.

Lu Chengkong has endured it for too long, he is overwhelmed by self-blame every day, and finally collapsed at this moment, he couldn't control his emotions anymore, he lay on the table, howled and cried, and said in his mouth, "I'm sorry for you...... I'm sorry Pang An, I'm sorry Uncle Pang, I'm sorry for you! ”

Lu Liang calmly said that he was afraid of his shoulders, and said, "Child, everything is over, don't worry, there will be no more wars." ”

Lu Chengkong cried for a long time, for a long time...... There is too much frustration in my heart to vent.

He thought he didn't belong here, but gradually, he already had concerns. Every grass and tree is all concerned, and Lu Chengkong is also concerned about the strange and familiar man in front of him.

"The dead will not be resurrected, and the living can no longer be sorry." Lu Chengkong dried his tears, clenched his teeth, lowered his head and said silently in his heart: "Even if I want to go back, I have to finish what I need to do."

"What is the right thing to do?"

"Everyone comes into this world with their own mission." When he touched the "Lu Sheng's Art of War" in his arms, the flame in his heart that was about to be extinguished burned again.

Lu Chengkong closed his eyes, his mind full of Shao Mingxuan's words: "If you learn the supreme art of war, you will be able to control hundreds of millions of living beings and have the power to destroy the earth, so as to reverse time and space!" He clenched his fists and said secretly: "I, Lu Chengkong, will never admit defeat, my mission is to find the true deeds of Lu Sheng and learn the supreme art of war, so as to cause the fission of time and space, I am already a person who has died once, what else is there to be afraid of?" Even if it is an oil pot on the knife mountain, the descendants of Lu Sheng will never give up! ”

……

The next evening.

When Lu Liang returned to the house, he saw that the food had been set up on the table, and his favorite wine was still placed next to it.

Lu Chengkong was wearing clean clothes today, obviously carefully groomed, and he no longer looked like he had the decadent feeling of the past, and he looked extraordinarily energetic.

"You may be seated." Lu Chengkong put Lu Liang's coat aside and sat down with Lu Liang.

Lu Chengkong raised the teacup in front of the table and said, "I don't know how to drink, so I will toast you with tea instead of wine today." ”

Lu Liang picked up the wine glass and drank it all. He knew that Lu Chengkong had vented all the boredom in his chest last night, and he must have something to say today, so he didn't ask, picked up the chopsticks and ate the dishes.

Seeing that Lu Liang drank a few more glasses of wine, Lu Chengkong said in a low voice: "I thought that with my cleverness, I would be able to make military merits on the battlefield, which is really ridiculous...... It's ridiculous. ”

Lu Liang didn't speak, picked up the wine glass again, and drank a glass of wine alone.

"In the days since I came back from Nangang, I thought about it during the day, at night, when I was awake, and I was still thinking about it when I was asleep......"

"I want to ...... Think, think...... Thinking that I will never admit defeat and never ...... But in the end, he still lost completely......" Speaking of this, Lu Chengkong's eyes became hollow.

"These days, I figured it out." After a while, Lu Chengkong's eyes gradually had a hint of expression, and said, "You don't know how important this book is to me. Everyone has a different life, whether it is bitter or sweet, you will only know after tasting it. And my fate ......" Speaking of this, Lu Chengkong took out the "Lu Sheng's Art of War" in his arms, and continued: "I am the 'descendant of Lu Sheng', my destiny is to go to the battlefield, and I must go to find the 'Supreme Art of War', one day, I ...... Lu Chengkong will definitely get back what he lost! ”

Lu Liang listened to Lu Chengkong's unswerving tone, nodded, and said: "Although my father has never read, he knows that a man must stand up to the sky and never admit defeat, but you ......" How could Lu Liang not know the hardships of the world? asked: "Are you really willing to spend your life pursuing this illusory 'supreme art of war'?" Can't you let go of the pursuit in your heart? ”

"Yes, I will never give up in my life. I just want to know what life is all about, why I came into this world, and what is the end of me. For all this, I can do whatever it takes. ”

"Why did you come into this world?" Lu Liang was a little surprised, he whispered to both sides, puzzled: "We live to live, why do we always have to think about these things?" ”

"What's the point of being alive if you don't think about it? Lu Chengkong said, his clenched fists trembling, "Everyone has the most important thing for themselves, I spend my life pursuing, even if I die, I have no regrets!" ”

Lu Liang couldn't understand what Lu Chengkong was pursuing? He can even give up his life for this pursuit...... Like parents all over the world, he just hopes that his children can have no worries about food and clothing. But at this time, looking at Lu Chengkong's unhesitating expression, he suddenly understood: "It turned out that I was wrong...... The life he hopes for may not be what his son wants. When a person grows up, it's time to let him go out on his own. ”

"When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow morning."

"Tomorrow...... I'll be gone tomorrow. Lu Liang's body trembled slightly, and it was only this time. He was silent for a moment, stood up, walked into the house and took a package out, handed it to Lu Chengkong, and said, "This is my father's savings over the years, take it, you can use it along the way." ”

Lu Chengkong knew that he owed Lu Liang too much, not only took his son's body, but also caused him to be expelled from the military government. didn't think that Lu Liang would still support him at this time, Lu Chengkong's eyes suddenly turned red, and he said to Lu Liang silently in his heart: "I can't die, I must go back, maybe after I go back, I can let your son come back...... If I can't go back in my life, I'll give you a pension! ”

Lu Liang drank another glass of wine, and suddenly said sharply: "The manly man stands up to the sky and does what you want to do!" After a few glasses of wine, his tone softened again, sniffed, and said, "It's just this way...... Be careful. ”

Lu Chengkong stood up, walked to Lu Liang in a dignified manner, suddenly knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said, "Father is above, please accept the child's worship." If you don't make a career, you won't have the face to come back to see you! As long as I am in this world for a moment, you will be my father! He also said to himself: "Even if I want to go back, I must go back with dignity." If you just leave, you will have regrets in this life. ”

"Get up," Lu Liang heard Lu Chengkong finally shout to himself, his heart was indescribably happy, and said, "Silly boy, as long as you can cheer up, I will be relieved." If you're tired outside, go home. ”

"The kid can't stand you!"

Lu Liang seemed to be a little drunk, he stood up, patted Lu Chengkong's shoulder, and then walked towards the house, saying in his mouth: "Chengkong, go!" It's just that you're out there...... Don't insult the reputation of our 'descendants of Lu Sheng'......"
