Chapter 4: The Kindness of a Woman

Although Xu Ruyu was hit by the gods, after all, the power of the blow was shared by more than 30 people, and the strength of his meridians was extraordinary, and it didn't take long for him to wake up, but the weakness after the battle made him unable to get up. He knew that Chen Ang would suffer a strange trick if he killed the gods, after all, this should not be a martial art in the world, and asked the servant girl who was waiting on the side: "How is my godfather now?" ”

"Ah, I don't know, Lord Du Wei just saw you and left with Lord Fang."

Xu Ruyu thought to himself: Since my godfather can come to see me, I should be fine.

Xu Ruyu was about to calm down and practice, there was a noise not far from the door, and after listening for a while, he learned that an ordinary soldier wanted to see him, but he was blocked by the Qingfeng Camp Jingwei. Curious, he beckoned the maidservant to call the man in.

The soldier came in and fell to his knees, his shoulders trembling, and he could not say a word whether he was frightened or excited. Xu Ruyu saw that although he was a soldier and led more than 20 people under his command, he was not even as good as an ordinary sergeant in the Qingfeng Battalion. I couldn't bear to be bowed to him like this, but I couldn't spare the strength to help him, and said sharply, "If you don't get up, go out." ”

Jingwei, who was guarding on the side, hurriedly set up the soldier when he heard this, and Xu Ruyu saw that he was one of the people he had saved today, and his old face was full of panic.

Thinking that he almost died for them in Xinfeng City, he couldn't help but feel close, and said softly: "I don't like others to kneel, and I can't have the strength to help you, so the voice is a little louder, you move the stool and sit down by yourself, and say something slowly." Then he told the maid to prepare tea. The servant girl looked disdainful, and when she saw the light in Xu Ruyu's eyes, she was so frightened that she was silent, and hurriedly went out.

When the soldier saw Xu Ruyu treating him like this, his panic gradually subsided, and he slowly said in the future: "General Qingfeng, do you remember the sergeant who lent you a hat in the morning?" Xu Ruyu remembered the immature face in the early morning, nodded and said, "Remember, I still have to thank him." Why mention him? The soldier said: "That sergeant is my subordinate, and he has just been recruited into the army by the Ming family two days ago. Today, I went out of the city to fight, and I was among them. Xu Ruyu suddenly realized that what he said was by no means good news, propped up his body, and asked him, "What's wrong with him." The soldier wiped away his tears and said, "When he finally entered the city, he was stuck with an arrow in the door of his head." He is not dead yet, and he said that he wanted to see the adult, and everyone took pity on him, so he asked me to come and beg the adult. ”

Xu Ruyu instructed Jingwei to prepare a sedan chair, and Jingwei hesitated and said, "Your adult's injury is ......."

Xu Ruyu said sharply: "Take me over." ”

Jingwei followed him for half a year, and he had never seen him so angry, he was stunned for a while, and hurriedly lifted Xu Ruyu from the bed. Xu Ruyu remembered something and asked the soldier: "How long have you been in the army?" ”

The soldier said: "Back to my lord, in the first battalion, the villain has been in the army for the longest time, a full two months. ”

Xu Ruyu asked a Jingwei beside him: "Is the first battalion of the Xinfeng Guard Army all Xinding?" Without waiting for him to answer, he closed his eyes uncomfortably, waved his hand and let Jingwei carry him out, and said nothing more.

The two Jingwei who set up Xu Ruyu only felt that he was trembling all over.

Jingwei didn't dare to disobey the order, so he had to send another person to report to Chen Ang, and the others guarded his side, and they all marched with the soldiers to the military camp north of the city.

Seeing the sergeant who borrowed his hat from him in a chaotic military camp in the north of the city, Xu Ruyu struggled to kneel beside him, Jingwei wanted to help him, but he stared back. Seeing the soldier in a coma, his heart was in pain, so he took his palm and gave him all the little Dan Xi he had gathered.

The sergeant with the hat opened his eyes and saw Xu Ruyu in front of him, his eyes bloomed with the last brilliance, gorgeous, and he raised his breath slightly, wanting to say something to Xu Ruyu. Xu Ruyu put his ear to his blood-stained mouth, barely understanding: "My mother often tells me that General Qingfeng protects our homeland and makes me want to be like you." She would be glad if she knew that I lent you a hat. It's a pity that no one told her about the old man's family. ”

The word "homeland" penetrated into his mind like the thunder light emitted by the god-killing god, and he could no longer stop his tears, looking at the gradually dissipating eyes of the soldier with the hat, and said softly: "I'll help you tell him." ”

Xu Ruyu's gaze slowly swept over everyone and asked, "Does anyone know where he lives?" The man who had been serving by the side said, "The villain fled to Xinfeng City with Zhang Daniu, and knows where his blind old lady lives." "Xu Ruyu said to him, you take me over." After speaking, he instructed Jingwei to set up the corpses of him and Zhang Daniu and walk towards the slums of Xicheng together. The soldier followed. When passing by the camp gate, Xu Ru didn't look at Chen Ang and Fang Su who were standing by the door.

When passing by the poor people in Xicheng, he looked at the demolished houses and asked Jingwei next to him: "Has the house been demolished and used as a stone bullet?" ”

Jingwei cautiously replied: "Yes, everyone has the responsibility to defend the city. ”

Xu Ruyu broke away from his support, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and scolded: "It's my duty to fart, what about the house built by Daqingtiao Stone in the east of the city?" Although the Jingwei was scolded so harshly by him, he couldn't give birth to a trace of resentment, his eyes were clouded with tears, and he helped Xu Ruyu up, almost holding him in his arms. Chen Ang and Fang Su listened from afar and sighed.

Three feet of grass barely covered by the shanty, unsheltered on all sides, the cold wind raging through, a wrinkled old face in horror faced the people who came to her.

Xu Ruyu saw that it was not enough for the shantyman to lie down, and the blind old woman was curled up in a corner, shivering by the cold wind. For a moment, I didn't know how to say what I meant, and looked at the sergeant who led the way, and the man said to the old woman, "General Qingfeng has come to see you." "Help her out.

Xu Ruyu didn't avoid the filth, took her hand, and said, "Your son lent me a hat today, and I will stop by to talk to you." The old woman groped and stretched out to Xu Ruyu's face, Xu Ruyu lowered her head slightly, and let her touch the top of her head, which was only an inch short of hair.

"It's General Qingfeng, this kid Da Niu is on an errand under the general?"

"Yes, the battle is still very heroic, I am about to take him to fight elsewhere, and my aunt is afraid that I will not be able to see him for a while." Xu Ru foolishly saw that she was in her last years, and her vitality was about to stop, and she couldn't bear to tell the bad news. instructed a Jingwei: "You find a party to control the system and settle it well."

Fang Su, who was on the side, saw that he didn't even want to talk to himself, and he was so sad that he wanted to cry. Xu Ruyu saw that Jingwei helped the old man leave, and ordered someone to prepare a pen and paper, and immediately wrote: "Zhang Daniu, a righteous man of Xinfeng in the East China Sea, on November 22, 51st year of the new dynasty, he borrowed the head protection fur hat to General Qingfeng, and he was killed by arrows and stones, and General Qingfeng Xu Ruyu remembered his righteous deeds. He handed it to the sergeant leading the way and said, "Erect a monument here." After speaking, he cried loudly, gradually subsided for a long time, and asked Fang Su sharply: "Without training, you were sent to charge the battle, why are you so ruthless?" ”

Fang Su wanted to speak and stopped, but finally turned his back and cried.

The soldier said on the side: "It was the Ming family who said that if you don't die three times, you can officially enter the military register." ”

After hearing this, Xu Ruyu trembled all over, glanced at everyone, and finally stopped at Chen Ang's face. Chen Ang turned his head away and said loudly: "If someone retaliates against this soldier, the clan law will not tolerate it. ”

Seeing Chen Ang say this, Xu Ruyu didn't mention the meaning of punishing the Ming family at all, closed his eyes sadly, and struggled to kneel in front of Chen Ang: "Please remove Du Wei from your command position." So saying, he sat down on the mud floor, without saying a word, without looking at anyone.

Everyone didn't expect that Xu Ruyu would break with Chen Ang and even the Chen clan for an ordinary sergeant, and stood on the spot one by one, not daring to imagine that these words came out of his mouth, Chen Ang had just rescued him from the enemy camp at the cost of his own danger.

Chen Ang sighed and walked back slowly, no one noticed two lines of tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes.

The next day, Zhang Zhongdao came to Chen Ang's door to ask for a meeting. Chen Ang asked him, "Youyu is leaving?" "Yes." Chen Ang asked again, "How is his injury?" "It's all right, you say he won't leave the East China Sea for the time being." Chen Ang thought to himself: But he will never return to Wanling, and asked again: "Okay, I know, do you have anything else?" ”

Zhang Zhongdao took out a letter from his bosom, handed it to Chen Ang, and said: "Ru Yu said that this letter was left by millions of people in Wanling, and he only asked Du Wei to say that if he can defeat the enemy and win, the price of selling land will be slightly reduced by one or two when he is homeless. After speaking, he knelt on the ground and said: "Zhongdao has received the great favor of Du Wei, and I wish to report it again in the next life, and ask Du Wei En to resign from the position of lieutenant of Qingfeng Battalion." ”

Chen Ang nodded in agreement without the slightest surprise, his gaze stopped in the empty space, and he didn't say anything more. Fang Su came in, only handed the letter to him, and said lightly: "According to the arrangement of this letter." After speaking, he closed his eyes and let the two lines of tears flow into his face.

Xu Ruyu and Zhang Zhongdao sneaked out of Dongcheng overnight, without riding a horse, and traveled along the wilderness in the direction of Tairu.
