Before Cai Wenji left, she had told Chen Nuo and Zhao Xue that she had entrusted Chen Nuo's 'parents' to Zuo Colonel of Tianwangzhai before she came this time. Of course, in addition to Colonel Zuo, there is one more. But it's Xu Rong. You must know that when Cai Wenji was attacked by the Huns and took Chen Nuo's 'parents' around, it was Xu Rong who met him who protected them all the way to the Tianwangzhai camp. It's just that Cai Wenji took two hundred thieves to chase Chen Nuo at that time, Xu Rong was drunk because of a fight with Zhang Baiqi, and he was already unconscious. It's just that because Colonel Zuo died in the war that night, the news of Chen Nuo's 'parents' was naturally confusing. It was also when Chen Nuo was confused, but at this time, Xu Rong came to see him, and he was immediately shocked.

Not to mention, Xu Rong came to see him at this time, maybe it was already a cheap 'parent' to protect him who came to him.

It was precisely because of this that when Chen Nuo heard that Xu Rong was coming, his heart fluttered, and he immediately ordered Xu Rong to be brought up.

However, if Xu Rong really brought his 'parents' here, would he see it or not? After all, Yu Ji's words are still in his ears, and he can't be cautious. Chen Nuo thought about it, and it was not too late to make plans after confirming the news of 'parents' in Xu Rong's mouth. He has made a decision here, and his heart is at peace. It's just that he suddenly thought about it, it seems that the messenger has been gone for a long time, why is he still not bringing Xu Rong? He hesitated, but patiently picked up a bamboo slip next to him and read it slowly.

After reading one article after another, he still didn't see Xu Rong coming, and Chen Nuo also had some doubts on his side. It's just that he can endure it in the end, and after reading the first half of the article, he thinks it's probably over. Only he finished reading the long half of the article in his hand, and suddenly raised his head, but he still didn't see any movement outside, so he couldn't help but sigh, and his heart was annoyed, so he immediately put down the book and shouted: "Someone!" "I'm going to ask two questions. Only when he came down, there was immediately a promise from someone outside the tent. However, this promise was too familiar, and Chen Nuo couldn't help but let out a soft sigh again. After the promise was answered, the tent door moved, and a tender little hand gently lifted it and opened it.

The tent door opened, revealing a small face.

"Hey, Zhao Xue! How are you! ”

"Uh, big brother......"

Zhao Xue came in, but the expression on her face was always stiff, and even a little sad. In other words, her eyes were red, as if she had cried. She looked very haggard. To say that in normal times, even if Zhao Xue doesn't joke with Chen Nuo when he enters the account, he will mostly treat each other with a smile and will not be bitter. is as careful as Zhao Xue, and tries to call herself Chen Nuo's eldest brother in the tent, so as to prevent others from seeing her daughter. And today, Zhao Xue not only spoke hard and lifeless, but also inadvertently made this little mistake, calling himself his eldest brother, Chen Nuo was also slightly stunned when he heard it, and then corrected: "Zhao Xue, now that you are under the account, you have to pay attention." ”

"Oh!"

Zhao Xue walked over, lifeless, even if she accepted Chen Nuo's words, it was a bit perfunctory. Originally, Chen Nuo was angry because he hadn't brought Xu Rong up for a long time, even when he saw Zhao Xue, he was not in the mood to answer, so when he saw that it was her, he didn't pay too much attention to it, and stared at the bamboo slip again. Only when he heard this 'oh', he already felt that something was wrong, so he sighed lightly, glanced up at Zhao Xue, and said with a smile: "Sister Xue, what's wrong with you?" ”

found that Zhao Xue looked at him with a pair of eyes, bringing infinite pity. Chen Nuo's mind was so sensitive, he felt it all of a sudden, and when he saw her red eyes, he knew that something was wrong, so he quickly put down the bamboo slips, walked down the pu mat, turned to Zhao Xue, grabbed Zhao Xue's palm, and said, "Sister Xue, what's wrong with you, who bullied you again?" Tell me to my big brother, I'll help Sister Xue get out of your anger...... Hey, what's wrong with you, but don't cry! ”

Chen Nuo's head was big, it was okay if she wasn't comforted, she didn't want to comfort her, but she climbed up along the pole, and when her eyes blinked, Baba was about to cry when she saw it. Zhao Xue didn't cry in the end, but grabbed Chen Nuo's palm, tried to transfer the warmth into his palm, looked at Chen Nuo's eyes, and said to him: "Big brother, I'm fine." Yes...... But there is one thing, I hope that after you know it, I hope that the big brother will not ...... Don't be too sad......"

When Chen Nuo heard her say this, his heart couldn't help but sink down: "Is it Miss Cai Wenji who has news?" ”

Zhao Xue shook her head and said, "No, it's not her...... Yes, it's Xu Rong......" "Xu Rong? When Chen Nuo heard this, he was suspicious, "What can Xu Rong do?" Then he thought about it, and said, "No, Sister Xue, how did you know Xu Rong?" Oh, by the way, you're with him this time. You know each other. However, isn't he outside the camp, and you are ......" Chen Nuo said this, but he heard Zhao Xue say: "Big brother, I was patrolling the camp under the tent just now, and I didn't want to meet Lord Xu Rong halfway......

When Chen Nuo heard this, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly understood something: "Oh! I also said that Xu Rong hasn't come here for so long, it turns out that I met you halfway. Let me guess, this Xu Rong didn't come for so long just now, probably because you have a lot to say after a long absence, so it's delayed, right? However, did you say hello to me in advance after intercepting him, so that I wouldn't worry in vain, wouldn't you? Of course, I don't blame you for doing this, big brother, Xue'er, and you don't have to blame yourself. Okay, now that it's time for you, Xue'er, can you bring Xu Rong up for me to meet? ”

When Zhao Xue heard this, she looked at Chen Nuo with her eyes and said, "Xue'er intercepted Lord Xu and didn't have time to inform your eldest brother, it was indeed Xue'er's negligence." However, big brother, can you listen to Xue'er, let's leave now, don't worry about other things, okay? ”

Chen Nuo looked at her solemnly, couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and immediately said: "Xue'er, where is this, not to mention that Gao Shun and they have no news so far, even my 'parents' have no news at all, in this case, how can you just leave?" By the way, I heard Cai Wenji say before that my 'parents' were escorted by her and Xu Rong, but now Xu Rong is outside the camp, but you can ask him......" Chen Nuo hadn't finished speaking, and was immediately interrupted by Zhao Xue: "No! ”

"Huh? Why? ”

Chen Nuo looked at Zhao Xue in surprise, not understanding why she said such a thing. Suddenly remembered that she had said before that he should not be too sad, and his heart sank, could it be that what she meant was related to his cheap 'parents'? As soon as Chen Nuo thought of this, his palms tightened, and he frowned to look at Zhao Xue, but saw that Zhao Xue's lips trembled, and suddenly bit his teeth, hesitated for a moment, and finally raised his head to look at Chen Nuo, and said to Chen Nuo carefully: "Big brother, actually...... In fact, uncles and aunts ...... them" Zhao Xue has already recognized his 'parents' as uncles and aunts because of Chen Nuo's relationship, which is also called Shunkou.

Chen Nuo looked at Zhao Xue's timid eyes, as well as the tears in her eyes that wanted to tremble, and couldn't help but tighten, her eyes suddenly opened, and she suddenly grabbed a pair of arms with both hands: "Sister Xue, what's wrong with my 'parents'?" ”

"This ......"

When the words came to her mouth, Zhao Xue hesitated painfully, unable to speak for a while. To be honest, she really couldn't bear to see Chen Nuo sad because of this incident. Even Zhao Xue didn't say it, in fact, her hesitant movements and dodging eyes, Chen Nuo had already felt it all at once: "You...... Sister Snow, but my 'parents'...... Already...... He didn't dare to express his intuition ...... his heart, even though he was still a stranger to his 'parents', but in the end, blood was thicker than water, and no matter what, he couldn't see anything wrong with them. What's more, maybe it was the soul of the original body owner that was affecting him intentionally or unintentionally, making him feel inexplicably sad because of this matter, and he had a headache again.

Zhao Xue looked at Chen Nuo's painful expression, and suddenly panicked, and hurriedly grabbed Chen Nuo's arm, and said again and again: "Big brother, people can't be resurrected after death, you ...... You...... Ah, big brother! After confirming the guess in Zhao Xue's mouth, Chen Nuo's head was followed by a nervous headache. When the headache starts, it makes him feel like he is being leaned over by an evil ghost. And this evil ghost, as if it was a monkey jumping out from under the Five Elements Mountain, was wandering in his mind unscrupulously, and grinning at him from time to time as if threatening, looking extremely terrifying. Chen Nuo trembled, and his heart was terrified: "Yes! It's him! "If he only felt a burst of pain like a cracked melon when he fell off the horse that night, he didn't even have time to take a closer look at the soul that suddenly 'rebelled', but at this time, the sudden emergence of this evil ghost made Chen Nuo see it clearly.

At this time, he no longer dared to doubt Yu Ji's words, so he hurriedly found a seat on the ground and practiced according to the exercises that Yu Ji gave him before leaving. Once Chen Nuo entered a state of silence, he forgot all the pain, even the evil ghost that came out wantonly, it seemed to be gone. In fact, where is missing, it is just deliberately ignored by Chen Nuo. And as long as he ignores the pain and ignores the existence of evil ghosts, his mental mind will be concentrated, and he will naturally not be able to let the inner soul find a flaw, and naturally he will not be able to take the opportunity to fight back against him. Chen Nuo suddenly sat down as if he was in a fixed position, a bead of sweat on his forehead dripped down one after another, and his facial expression was even more painful and serene, which made Zhao Xue next to him seem anxious.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you. Don't do that, don't scare me! ”

Zhao Xue squatted down, seeing that she couldn't wake up Chen Nuo, she was so anxious that she almost jumped up. It's just that after a period of practicing the exercises, Chen Nuo slowly faded the shadow of the 'evil ghost', and the pain was also reduced, and the situation was slightly better. He heard Zhao Xue's shout in his ears, although his eyes were still closed, and he was doing exercises in his hands, but his mouth was open: "Sister Xue, you don't have to worry, I'm fine." I know now, you stopped that Xu Rong and didn't let him come to see me, probably because you were afraid that he would not be able to say it well, and that I would be sad. It's okay, Sister Snow, I can handle it. Since you don't want him to tell me directly, then you can tell me. What the hell is going on, my 'parents' them, how can they be okay? ”

This matter is indeed not suitable for Xu Rong, an outsider, not to mention, talking about this matter has something to do with Xu Rong, if Xu Rong says it directly, I am afraid that Chen Nuo will inevitably be angry with him after hearing it. And Zhao Xue, who came all the way with Xu Rong, was also taken care of by Xu Rong, so naturally she couldn't bear to see Xu Rong come to die by himself, so she left Xu Rong behind, and she came to tell him about it in person.

Speaking of this matter, we have to start that night. That night, when the Huns rushed to camp, Xu Rong had already woken up. He was also shocked in the face of the terrible scene that suddenly appeared. At that time, he still thought that this was Zhang Baiqi's camp, and he should ask Zhang Baiqi what happened. Only he was able to get out of the tent, but he was immediately turned around by the chaotic Hun cavalry outside the tent. At that time, Xu Rong did not contact Zhang Baiqi firstly, and secondly, there were few available soldiers around him, so he could only try to escape from the camp.

Only Xu Rong was in the chaos, but he encountered the stragglers he brought earlier, and he fought with them. Just seeing these people, it also made his originally groggy head, and he immediately remembered that there were Cai Wenji and others who came with him all the way, how did they disappear? Relying on a few soldiers around him, and the Hun rebels had not yet reached the vicinity, Xu Rong immediately took the men and horses back to the camp tent to find them. Cai Wenji didn't find it, but Chen Nuo's 'parents' were found by him first. Xu Rong knew from them that Cai Wenji had originally led the troops out and had not come back until now, and when he left, he asked him to take care of Chen Nuo's 'parents'. For Chen Nuo's 'parents', Cai Wenji does not entrust him, in fact, Xu Rong will never let it go easily. Not to mention that Chen Nuo's status may be relied on in the future, but with his conscience, he and Zhao Xue can talk all the way, and he also feels that it is really not easy for Zhao Xue, a little girl, to escort Chen Nuo's 'parents' so hard, how can he bear to see them have an accident? It is precisely in view of this that Xu Rong didn't say a word, and immediately reorganized the team, protected Chen Nuo and his old 'parents' in the middle, and took the two of them all the way out of the Huns.

It is also fortunate to say that when Xu Rong and the others went back to kill, those Hun cavalry were in a hurry to pursue Zhang Baiqi and others, but they left an empty camp for Xu Rong and others, and Xu Rong and others did not encounter much obstacle before they rushed out of the thief array. In the blink of an eye, in the daytime, Xu Rong and others fought all night, and there were only a dozen people left around them, and most of them were injured, Xu Rong was also anxious, and he didn't know whether to go back or go west for a while.

Walking back, it is possible to encounter the Hun rebels again, and to the west, it is inconvenient to miss it with Chen Nuo and others. Xu Rong thought twice, and could only go backwards. It's just that he hasn't moved yet, but he first encountered a group of Hun rogues, and he beat them in the head. The soldiers around him were already wounded, and the number was too small, so they were hit by the Huns, that is, a large number of people were killed and wounded. In the chaos, Chen Nuo's old 'parents' had no time to escape, and had already been trampled to the ground by the iron hooves of the Huns and died under the horse. Xu Rong was also too busy to take care of himself at this time, and it was too late for rescue, so he could only run towards the mountain with three or three soldiers, so he escaped the pursuit of the Hun cavalry.

If Xu Rong was going to go back because he wanted to send Chen Nuo's 'parents' back, but now because of the death of Chen Nuo's 'parents', he has no face to see Chen Nuo again, and he can only go west. That is, on the way, he heard that Hongnong had Lu Bu's garrison, so he went to him to talk about it. However, he hadn't reached the halfway point, but it was crazy that Lu Bu had killed Li Su, and Xu Rong was so frightened that he knew that he couldn't go anymore. Come to think of it, this time it was unfavorable, and Li Su was killed by Lu Bu, if he, the deputy envoy, went over, wouldn't he be sent to death?

Since the road to the west was controlled by Lu Bu, it was no longer possible to move forward, and Xu Rong could only turn east. At this time, he thought left and right, there was really no way to move, it seemed that there was no other possibility except to defect to Chen Nuo. Xu Rong was thinking about it for a while, and walked back with a worried heart. However, after all, he also had a heart, and before seeing Chen Nuo, he deliberately went to collect the bodies of Chen Nuo's 'parents' and brought one of them with him. He hurried all the way, and then he arrived at Chen Nuo's side. Originally, he had already thought of his words along the way, and was about to meet what Chen Nuo said, but he was passed into the camp tent, and he didn't say a word, but he met Zhao Xue halfway. And Zhao Xue, because she saw that it was him, simply asked about the news, and heard that she came to send the corpse, and she was shocked when she learned about the death of Chen Nuo's 'parents'. It's just that she cares a little about it, and she knows that it is not appropriate to let Xu Rong come forward to come forward, and it is best for her to come forward to explain it to Chen Nuo first, so as not to misunderstand. Zhao Xue had this thought, so she left Xu Rong behind, and she came to see Chen Nuo by herself.

Although Chen Nuo was in the process of practicing the exercises, he heard every word in Zhao Xue's words clearly. As soon as she finished talking about the whole thing, he had already suppressed the 'evil ghost' in his body, and only then did he open his eyes and smile reluctantly: "Do you think that I am such a reckless person, I don't know if I am good or bad?" But Xue'er, it's really safe for you to do this, after all, if Xu Ronglai tells me this in person, maybe I'll kill him. Okay, Sister Xue, you go down now, let Xu Rong come to see me, as for my 'parents'...... You can have someone help me bury them all first, and I'll go back later." ”

As soon as Zhao Xue heard Chen Nuo's words, she got up. It's just that she still can't let go of her heart, and she can't help but stare at Chen Nuo twice: "Big brother, are you really okay?" ”

"Well, I'm fine."

Chen Nuo waved his hand at her and asked her to go down first. And he, for some reason, only felt suffocated in his chest, his eyes were red, and he fell into tears for no reason.
