Luda said goodbye to his master and decided to go to the Xian'er house first, who rescued him from the battlefield, to see the grandfather and grandson, it has been almost a year since they parted.

I don't know how their lives are going, do strings still love to laugh so much,

Grandpa Jin is still like that, getting up at dawn every day to work.

Ruda really longs for the quiet and elegant courtyard surrounded by the fence, the warm thatched house, and the fragrant food.

It was the place where his young life was resurrected, and there was the place where the blood of his youth flowed.

Ruda's heart was full of happiness, and Ruda's eyes were full of joy. He picked a handful of unknown wild flowers on the side of the mountain path, and he wanted to give these colorful and beautiful flowers to his dear and beloved strings, and Ruda's heart had already regarded the little girl who loved to laugh as his own sister, and regarded the old man Jin as his own grandfather, and at this time he was like a wanderer who had been wandering for a long time, coming home, returning to his long-lost relatives.

Ruda hurried like an arrow.

Turn around the foot of the hill and come closer. Ruda was dumbfounded. I saw that the fence was tilted upside down, and the neat courtyard was full of wild grass. Seeing all this, Ruda's hot heart suddenly fell into the ice kiln, and the wildflower he was holding in his hand also fell to the ground. He shouted, "Grandpa." Strings. "I pushed open the door of the thatched hut over the fence, and the house was already covered with dust and cobwebs. Ruda shouted in a heartbreak: "Grandpa, you guys are there." Tears flowed from the tiger's eyes......

Ruda stood there stunned for a long time, gritted his teeth, closed the door, turned and left.

Ruda, who left the Jin family, was full of miserable hearts and hit the road again.

Ruda ran to the ditch, he wanted to see the former battlefield, and he wanted to pay tribute to the brothers who died on the battlefield.

Ruda came to the ditch.

The ditch was still as quiet as ever, and the mountains on both sides of the ravine had long since covered the gods of nature with layers of greenery, and only the crisp chirping of birds added some life to the silence.

The battlefield of the past has been returned to a quiet place, and the place where the fight was fought at that time has long been covered by grass. Ruda stood there and said in his heart, "Brothers, I am here, Ruda, no! I should have asked Lu Da to come and see you. You are all great warriors, you are all true warriors who are not afraid of life and death. ”

Ruda knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times. Then he stood up and wandered in the shade of the grass. He wants to take a good look at this place and keep every grass and tree here in mind, because this is his Ruda's first life battlefield, and it is his Ruda's first battle of life and death.

Only those who come back from the dead know the preciousness of life, and only those who have fought for their lives on the battlefield know the loveliness of life.

Ruda wandered silently here, silently reminiscing, silently reminiscing. Suddenly, he stepped on something under his feet, Ruda looked down and was surprised that what he was stepping on was a human-headed skeleton, and he looked to the side to see how many more.

Ruda searched around and found a total of forty-one skeletons. Next to one of the skeletons was a rusty broadsword, which Ruda recognized as Tiha's.

Isn't that exactly the number of people in their team who escorted grain and grass last year? At that time, it was twelve coachmen, plus thirty officers and soldiers who escorted them. Ruda counted carefully, yes, there were forty-one skeletons, and if he went back to himself who escaped death, wouldn't it be forty-two. Ruda suddenly felt a kind of sadness in his heart that he had never felt before. Poor brethren, here you died fighting for your country and for your people, and no one collected your body. Who abandoned your corpse in this barren mountain and wilderness, and let the wind and rain blow and the eagle and wolf? Who made your souls have nowhere to rest, and wander around in loneliness?

Ruda dug a large pit in the ground with the great sword of Tihath, and buried forty-one heads and skeletons in a large grave. However, he broke three branches and made offerings and planted them in front of the grave, but he knelt there and prostrated heavily, and said silently in his heart, "Rest in peace, brothers." I, Ruda, will definitely get justice for you. ”

After doing this, Luda stood up and ran in the direction of Wuguan.

He was going to Wuguan to seek justice for the brothers who had died.

He was going to Wuguan and asking the garrison commander there why he didn't collect the corpses of these heroes and let them go into the wilderness.

He was going to ask those chiefs if they still had a long heart, and if they still had any humanity.

Luda held the big knife left behind by Tiha in his hand and strode towards Wuguan.

Wuguan is still the Wuguan of the past.

At this time, the soldiers guarding the gate were checking the pedestrians coming and going.

Since the Battle of Jiagou last year, the Western Xia seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and never came to harass this area again. Therefore, the current Wuguan can be said to be calm and safe. Therefore, there is an endless stream of business travel, and the market is becoming more and more prosperous.

Today, the guards guarding the gate are Xue Yong and Duan Jingzhu.

Far away, Duan Jingzhu, a sharp-eyed hairy dog, saw a tall strong man walking towards the pass with a big knife in his hand, so he paid attention to it and looked at it a few more times. After looking at it a few times, Duan Jingzhu thought to himself, why is this person so familiar. He hurriedly stabbed Xue Yong beside him and whispered, "Brother Xue, do you see if the person who came over there is our Brother Lu." ”

Xue Yong said: "Don't talk nonsense, didn't the eunuch say everything, Brother Lu, defected to Western Xia." ”

Duan Jingzhu said: "Look at it, is that Brother Lu." ”

Xue Yong looked in the direction of Duan Jingzhu's finger, and almost didn't spit out his tongue in fright: "Mom, it's really Boss Lu." How dare he come back. Hurry up and report to the chief. ”

Duan Jingzhu grabbed Xue Yong and said, "Don't report it yet, there must be a reason for this." Let's go up and ask what's going on. ”

Xue Yongdao: "Didn't you see him holding a big knife in his fierce hand, be careful to cut us down." ”

Duan Jingzhu said: "It's okay, Brother Lu is not such a person who has no conscience. ”

Xue Yong had no choice but to bite the bullet and greet Duan Jingzhu with a nervous face.

The two approached Ruda and said boldly, "Big brother, you're back." ”

Luda was extremely happy when he saw that it was two younger brothers, and he was very happy after the difference between life and death, and said excitedly: "Ah, it's two brothers." I am back. ”

Duan Jingzhu pulled Lu Da and said softly: "Big brother, you are stupid, you dare to come back at this time." ”

Ruda said inexplicably: "Why don't I dare to come back." ”

Duan Jingzhu said, "Didn't you defect to the Western Xia Kingdom?" ”

Luda said: "Who ****** talking nonsense, I defected to Western Xia. ”

At this time, Xue Yong stepped forward and said, "Then you went there for so long. ”

Ruda said: "I was wounded on the battlefield and passed out, and I was rescued. Then he told me what happened, but he didn't say anything about his own mentoring.

Duan Jingzhu said happily: "I'll just say, the eldest brother will not commit treason to the enemy." ”

Luda grabbed Xue Yong's sleeve and asked, "Tell me carefully, what the hell is going on." ”

Xue Yong said: "After we received the news that day, the Lord Metropolitan Supervisor led a large group of men and horses to rush over, and when he went, the battle was over, and the grain and grass and the Tangut people had long since disappeared, and after counting the battlefield, we found that except for you, the others were all killed, so the Metropolitan Supervisor Tong Fei said that you colluded with the Tangut people to rob the grain and grass and defected. ”

Ruda said: "Nonsense. ”

Xue Yong said: "It's not my nonsense, it's what the eunuch said. ”

Ruda then asked, "Then why don't you collect the bodies of the brothers who died in the war and bury them?" ”

Xue Yong said: "The eunuch will not let him be buried." ”

Ruda scolded: "This wolf-hearted thing, I'll ask him what kind of heart he has." ”

Xue Yong and Duan Jingzhu hurriedly grabbed Lu Da and said, "Big brother, they are all arresting you, aren't you looking for death when you go." ”

Ruda said: "Brother, don't stop the two of you, I will go and explain that I am not a defector and seek my innocence." With that, the two of them separated and ran towards the capital prison.

The defender of Wuguan is Tong Fei, the nephew of the privy envoy Tong Guan, who relies on his uncle's power to cover the sky in Wuguan and do evil.

Luda and their escort of grain and grass is that Tong Fei instructed his own soldiers, secretly reported to the Tangut people, and also gave the Tangut black barbarian general a thousand gold and ten Song women, the condition is that after the Tangut people get the benefits, they will not harass the military area under the jurisdiction of Tong Fei for two years, giving people the illusion that he Tong Fei is using his mighty power to deter the border pass and deter the enemy, so that he can be promoted to the capital through the operation of his uncle Tong Guan, to be a peace officer, away from the desolation of the cold moon at the border pass, and to be frightened and afraid, return to the bustling Tokyo Bianliang, watch the wind and snow, watch the singing and dancing to enjoy the blessings.

On the day the grain and grass were robbed, he was supposed to go to Jiagou to meet the escort team according to the prior agreement, but he did not go.

When he received the message from Tihar's flying pigeon, he should have led his troops to arrive immediately, but he ignored the life and death of his soldiers, and deliberately delayed time, and by the time they arrived at Jiagou, the battle was over, and the Tanguts had long disappeared without a trace with their booty.

When Tong Fei saw the misery on the battlefield, he felt very nervous in his heart, and he didn't know how to deal with it if his superiors inquired about it. After counting the number of people killed in battle, he heard that Lu Da saw this, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised that there was a scapegoat.

At this time, Tong Fei was flirting with Xinna's concubine in the Metropolitan Prison Mansion, and suddenly the pro-soldier guarding the gate of the mansion ran back breathlessly and said: "Report, report, report to the adult, it's not good." ”

Tong Fei pushed away the concubine who was coquettish in his arms and said, "What is the panic like, what is the fuss." ”

The pro-soldier said: "My lord is not good, Lu Da is back." ”

Tong Fei was taken aback and asked, "Lord Lu is there." ”

The soldier reported: "I'm waiting outside the gate." ”

Tong Fei said: "Okay, you let him in." ”

Then he waved his hand and said to the concubine: "I have official business to do, you should avoid it first." ”

The soldiers were just about to go out, but Tong Fei stopped him and instructed: "After Lu Da comes in, you go and call a few more people to come and obey orders outside the mansion gate." ”

Tong Fei tidied up his clothes and sat on the Taishi's chair.

Surrounded by two personal soldiers, Lu Da walked into the capital prison mansion, suppressed the anger in his heart and saluted Tong Fei: "Luda see your lord." ”

Tong Fei slapped the table and shouted, "Be bold and reckless, you dare to come back." ”

Ruda raised his head and said, "Why don't I dare to come back? ”

Tong Fei said: "You are guilty." ”

Lu Da said: "My lord, what is Lu Da's crime? ”

Tong Fei said inwardly: "You fornicated with the enemy army and betrayed the military situation, resulting in the robbery of grain and grass, and the death of the soldiers was extremely evil. ”

Luda said magnificently: "I fought on the battlefield in blood, fought bravely to kill the enemy, was injured and fainted and was rescued, how did I fornicate with the enemy army and betray the military intelligence." ”

Tong Fei said: "You said that you were injured and rescued, then the capital prison wants to ask you, who saved you, and where you are recuperating from your injuries, can anyone testify?" ”

Rueda said: "The person who saved me is nowhere to be found. ”

Tong Fei said: "It's nonsense. ”

Luda said: "I don't have nonsense, may I ask my lord, if I am a spy, then I dare to come back?" There must be someone else in the spy, please be aware of everything, and return Luda to a clean and fair character, so as to comfort the brothers who died in battle. ”

Tong Fei said: "You are quibbling. ”

At this time, Luda Daigo seemed to understand something in his heart and said, "My lord, I have a question to ask? Tong Fei put on a businesslike appearance and said: "You ask, if you want to die, I will let you die to understand." ”

Ruda asked, "My lord, why don't you collect the corpses of the brothers who died in battle, and let them die in the wilderness?" ”

Tong Fei said with a red face: "At that time, the military situation was urgent, and I wanted to lead the team to chase after the Xixia people and recapture the looted grain and grass, how could I tolerate my mother-in-law and mother." ”

Luda said: "Then why don't you go and bury the body after that." ”

Tong Fei said: "My responsibility is to guard the realm, not to summon the souls of the dead and make graves. ”

Ruda laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to be a dehumanized guy. ”

Tong Fei shouted: "Come on, tie up Lu Da for me." ”

Five or six personal guards rushed in from outside the door, and they couldn't help but tie Luda Wuhuanda with a rope.

Luda said: "Tong Fei, you reverse black and white, frame good people, you can't die well." ”

Tong Fei shouted hoarsely: "Plug his mouth for me, hang him on the chess stick of the school army, and start the knife at noon tomorrow to set an example." ”
