Chapter 33
Before long, there was a piercing sound of swords and soldiers outside the cave, and after a burst of shouting, the sound gradually stopped, and Zilong's heart couldn't help but raise his throat.
The friction sound of a shuffling footstep could be heard, and the person who entered the cave seemed to be seriously injured, and his staggering steps made a feeble clicking sound in the cave.
A long figure slowly appeared on the cave wall, Zilong's hands couldn't help but clench, and he hugged Li Yu, who was already crying, feeling him sobbing in his arms for a while.
The man finally entered the cave, staggered, and fell on Murong Jing's already cold and stiff corpse, and stretched out his hand to caress the delicate face that had just been there.
"Jing'er, wait for me!"
Zilong was stunned and let go of Li Yu, who was distracted, and moved his body with great effort, which was able to help Li San up.
"Big brother, I'm ......"
Zilong didn't know what to say now, and his words of thanks seemed a bit hypocritical, and he didn't care about thanking him, and he could see that Li San was also dying.
It's pointless to say sorry, but I didn't expect a misunderstanding to bring disaster to others.
Li San didn't seem to care about this, and the wisdom he showed at the moment even made Zilong feel like a different person.
"Brother Dugu, these people must be looking for you, looking at their formation, the siege should be done in a hurry, if the expectation is good, there will be chasing soldiers behind, but ......"
can't kill all the thieves, can't bring Murong Jing back from the dead, and even this small family of three can't take care of it.
"Big brother, don't make senseless resistance anymore, just hand me over, I can't bother you anymore!"
Li San stretched out his hand to stop Zilong's words, looked at his wife who was still young, and suddenly broke the foot of the bed with a sudden force in his hand, took a roll of hemp rope and tied it to Zilong's bed, picked up Murong Jing, who was already stiff, and slowly walked towards the outside of the cave.
Zilong's heart moved, and he understood that Li San was still ready to save his life, so he hurriedly stopped: "Big brother, don't bother for me as a stranger!" β
As he spoke, he was about to roll over and roll off the bed, but Li Sanyi's iron hands grabbed his shoulders tightly.
"Brother, the eldest brother only asks for one thing, I hope you can take care of Yu'er, and this family heirloom war knife......"
As he spoke, he took out a roll of bamboo slips from under the bed and handed it to Zilong.
"The above is some family heirloom sword techniques, if Yu'er is angry, you will pass it on to him and let him practice diligently, if Yu'er is not good, brother and help me find a suitable successor, don't let the ancestors' stunts be lost!"
After saying that he came out of the cave, Zilong couldn't help but gasp, on the small flat ground in front of the cave, there were more than 20 corpses lying horizontally and vertically, most of them had been dismembered, it was simply a miniature Shura killing field.
The cold wind howled under the moonlight, all the way down the mountain to the grassland, Li Yu had fallen asleep in Zilong's arms, the child was a child after all, maybe he didn't realize that his mother had left him.
After about a stick of incense, suddenly the bed board trembled, Li San fell to the ground, Murong Jing's body rolled to the side, and Zilong was startled by this change.
"Big brother!"
Zilong's shout didn't even whirl in the night wind, it just dissipated and became invisible.
Zilong looked at Li San holding Murong Jing's hand tightly, the resolute man, who shed his last tears when he was dying.
"Jing'er...... Under...... Don't ...... in your life Meet ...... again to my ......"
Zilong didn't understand why Li San had such a last word, and with the help of the gradually brightening sky, Zilong saw the black blood stains on the corner of Li San's mouth, and he was also poisoned.
But even if he was poisoned, this man dragged him away all night, what kind of perseverance should this be?
His legs gradually regained sensation, and when he looked back, he found that the grass had been dragged by the bed board along the way, and it was believed that the killers would soon follow this mark.
Laboriously found a vacant lot, and buried Li San and his wife hastily, and now the couple is left with only these two inconspicuous mounds, perhaps the wind and sand are bigger, and they will disappear soon.
Zilong wanted to erect a monument for them, but suddenly felt that it was excellent to return dust to dust in this way, and in this troubled era, it was extremely lucky to have a place to be buried.
Li Yu seemed to realize that he would no longer be spoiled by his parents in the future, and it would be difficult to enjoy the joy of family, so he pouted and cried out loud.
Zilong listened to Li Yu's cry and found that his whole heart was slowly becoming cold and hard, leaving only one place soft, and he didn't know what was in that corner.
Heaven and earth are not benevolent, all things are used as dogs, even if they live in seclusion, it is inevitable that disasters will fall from the sky, and the war will be chaotic together, and there will be no innocent people in the entire land of China, and some are afraid that only those wandering ghosts who are helpless in life and death will be left.
"Yu'er, kowtow to your father."
Zilong said this lightly, and after Li Yu kowtowed to Li San Murong Jing's grave, he took Li Yu's little hand and walked towards the depths of the grassland.
After a long time, I looked back from afar, but it was difficult to find the two small mounds, and when it was hot in front of me, I walked away without looking back.
"Uncle, are you a hero?"
"Uncle is not, uncle not only can't protect himself, but even affects Yu'er's whole family, uncle is a sinner."
"Does uncle know martial arts?"
"Uncle knows how to punch and kick, but what's the use?"
"Uncle taught me kung fu, I want to avenge my father!"
"Yu'er wants to learn, and my uncle will hand it over to you, but after taking revenge, what do you want to do? Hatred is not the theme of life. β
Listening to Li Yu's somewhat naΓ―ve, but quite resolute words, Zilong didn't care if he understood it or not, after saying this, he really didn't want Li Yu to live in hatred at a young age.
But Li Yu seemed to be more stubborn and mature than he imagined, looking at the endless wilderness, the pale yellow sky in the distance and the dusk grassland seemed to be connected.
"Yu'er hopes that there will never be a child in the world who doesn't have a father like Yu'er, and it's really sad to have no father."
Zilong said this with a pain in his heart, squatted down, carefully rubbed Li Yu's immature face, and said with a smile: "Yu'er's wish, uncle will definitely help you realize it!" β
Listening to Zilong's promise, Li Yu seemed to be happy all of a sudden, and his brows gradually relaxed.
Zilong looked at the child who suddenly smiled, and his heart was full of warm feelings, he didn't know where his world was, but by accident, he became the whole world of this child.
Three days later.
"Owner, we've spotted two suspicious figures wandering around our ranch!"
"Oh? What kind of people? β
"One big and one small, the big one is about twenty years old, and the little one should be less than seven or eight years old, but ......"
"How?"
"The big one seems to have some ability, someone once saw him being surrounded and killed by several men in black, but he killed the men in black cleanly."
"Oh?"
"The owner, whether to bring him or not, it is said that he would rather be injured himself than take care of the little one, it seems that there is something to do."
"Why take people?"
"He's been wandering around our ranch for a few days, and he's been keeping an eye on our war horses, and he doesn't know if he's going to steal them!" γ
"Well, let's talk about it, please!"
The owner turned his back and looked at the batch of war horses scattered flowers and galloping wildly on the racecourse, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pulled.
The person who reported was a little surprised to hear that the owner of the field actually used a word of invitation, and Nuo Nuo withdrew.
Before long, the man carried an unconscious child to the hall, threw the child to the ground, knelt down and said, "The owner, the idea is piercing, it is really for the war horse, fortunately he focused on stealing the horse, and we were able to get out." β
The owner looked at the child, his immature face was very dirty, like a little beggar, his immature brows were tightly wrinkled, and his small fists were clenched tightly......
"What about the man?"
"I was blocked out of the stadium, and I was confronting and shouting at the guards at the moment."
"Let him in, don't block it, take the little one to the fourth lady, and let her take care of it!"
The man seemed to have something to say, but the owner of the field took one look at it, and then picked up the child and left the main hall.
In a moment, there was a shouting from outside.
"Is it a good man who came out to put it right with me, is it a man to embarrass a child?"
The owner heard the scolding outside, and his voice seemed to be a little familiar, and he quickly stepped out of the main hall and came to the square outside the hall.
"Oh, it's him!"
Laugh out loud and get the attention of the scolder.
"Haha, who said that the bird's nest will eventually die, and once it soars to the sky, it will be a bird!"
