289 Shixin
In early spring, everything recovers.
The south is full of verdant, but the north is just beginning to melt, revealing brown soil.
The horse's hooves flew and the dust splashed, and the three horsemen went south along the Yellow River, and when they reached Hanoi County, they stopped.
Further east, it is the junction of Shandong and Hebei, and to the south across the Yellow River, which is Wagang's sphere of influence.
A beautiful woman stopped moving, looked around, and said softly: "General Su, Uncle Liu, we are here, and we will be separated for a while for the time being." ”
The three riders are Dou Hongxian, Su Dingfang and Liu Heimin, the breeze is blowing, and the three of them have different expressions, but they all look a little tired.
Liu Heimin frowned and said, "Red line, no matter what, this time it's finally ...... The grassland can help, now that the Central Plains is in turmoil, everything is recovering, it is a good opportunity to start an incident, plus Ke Dun Feng Dou Brother is the king of Changle, you and I should quickly turn around and tell Ling Zun that he will be called king as soon as possible and follow Wagang...... The current Wagang is full of momentum, and it is unique for a while, I am only afraid that it will be too late, and the Central Plains will all belong to Wagang. ”
Dou Hongxian shook his head and said: "When we rushed to the grassland, it happened that Yang Yichen came to attack, and I don't know what happened to my father now." However, my father ordered the three of us to go to the grassland together, that is, he was very concerned about the affairs of the grassland. Fortunately...... Fortunately, the matter of our grassland has also been completed, and now it ...... We still have a few more to do. ”
She hesitated, but Su Dingfang said loudly: "What is the purpose of Xiao Buyi's kid to help us?" Red line, he must have taken a fancy to you. ”
Dou Hongxian's face was slightly red, "General Su, you are laughing, Xiao Buyi has no such intention." ”
"Then why did he help to intercede with Korn and promise to give us horses?" Su Dingfang frowned and said: "He is also a thief now, and so are we, with his arrogance, most of them will stand on their own and will not take refuge in us." If he hadn't taken a fancy to you, this favor would have been inexplicable. But...... He was able to make Shibi Khan not go to the Central Plains, from this point of view, I am very convinced of him! ”
Liu Heimin said on the side: "What Dingfang said is right, a man should be like Xiao Buyi!" In my opinion, all the people in the world should thank him, if the Turkic soldiers are used to make trouble, it will really disgrace the ancestors...... But the Turks are capricious, and I'm afraid that even if they swear, they won't be able to take it seriously! ”
When Dou Hongxian heard this, his face was slightly red, knowing that Liu Heimin was still dissatisfied and asked for help from the grassland, but he pretended not to know, and changed the topic and said: "Uncle Liu, although the Turks are capricious, but the Khan has made a promise, since he swore in public, he must not go back on it." What's more, if he repents, not only will the Tiele people make a big fuss about this oath, but I am afraid that even if the Turks are dissatisfied with him, this khan may not be able to sit down. ”
Su Dingfang sighed, "What do you have in mind with this Xiao Buyi?" If he doesn't let the Khan send troops, won't he be the same himself...... Alas...... It's a pity that a character like him won't take refuge in Brother Dou. ”
Dou Hongxian also sighed, and said softly: "Although his current power is nothing, if anyone can really get his help, the world's grasp will be greatly increased." ”
The three of them were all embarrassed, and they were silent for a while.
Although Xiao Buyi is well-informed, others are not. Xiao Buyi entered Xiangyang, Baling, Yiyang and other counties, and issued the Juntian Order, but it was the banner of the right Xiaowei general, and he made a fortune in a muffled voice. The border counties may have smelled it, but they were also confused for a while, and they didn't know why, and some even thought that Xiao Buyi was still a general of the imperial court. The news only spread on both sides of the Yangtze River, far from crossing the Yellow River, Dou Hongxian and others have been haunting the north of the Yellow River for a period of time, but they don't know, seeing him come to the grassland, I can't guess Xiao Buyi's intentions, you must know that Xiao Buyi has long occupied Xiangyang, most of them will not think so.
It turned out that under the coercive request of Xiao Buyi, Kedun, Ashina and Tiele tribes, Shibi Khan had no choice but to swear. Although Shibi Khan was unwilling, he could see that the army's morale was fluctuating, and he knew that he would fight again, and if he didn't wait for Tiele to make a move, his soldiers would also turn against him, and he couldn't help but lose his pride. And because his beloved son and brother were all asked for their lives by powerful ghosts, the surname Suo obeyed Xiao Buyi's orders. With the support of Khan and Kedun, Xiao Buyi began to evacuate the crowd, temporarily prohibiting intra-clan interactions, isolating the source of the disease, exterminating rats and burning the bodies of the dead. These methods are all methods to control the plague, but Xiao Buyi knows that they are handled in an orderly manner. But without the support of Khan and Kedun, he and Sun Simiao alone would not be able to do this, because it is a burning corpse, which is not in line with the rules of the grassland people, and the grassland people pay attention to sky burial, and burning the corpse is disrespectful to the dead, but the horse god and the lord of the grassland have an order, even if there is a dissatisfaction, they can only respect the order. The rest is for Sun Simiao to prescribe a prescription for the treatment of the plague, and all ethnic groups will be prescribed according to the prescription. Although it is impossible to rule all sides, Sun Simiao sits on the grassland and should limit the spread of the plague to a minimum.
Xiao Buyi was busy in full swing, but Dou Hongxian and the others felt bored, seeing Xiao Buyi's momentum in the grassland, like a fairy, even Kedun Khan had to listen to his command. On his own side, he asked for help, and in comparison, there was a world of difference.
Ke Dun was busy controlling the plague, taking the opportunity to establish prestige and win people's hearts, she also knew that at the moment she had Xiao Buyi's help, although she had the upper hand, but the battle with the khan was far from over, and she didn't dare to be careless, but she snubbed Dou Hongxian. Dou Hongxian and a few people were stunned for a few days, Su Dingfang couldn't hold back, took the initiative to find Xiao Buyi, and talked about asking for a horse, which was originally a helpless move, but he didn't expect Xiao Buyi to hear the strings and know the elegance, and took him and Ke Dun to talk about it, of course Ke Dun knew what they were doing by borrowing horses, but now the world was in chaos, not only Sui Chen's confidence in Yang Guang was exhausted, even if Ke Dun was losing confidence, secretly thinking that Yang Guang himself would be difficult to protect, if she lost the support of the Central Plains, how long would she be able to support in the grassland. Seeing that Xiao Buyi interceded for Su Dingfang and others, he pushed the boat down the river, not only promised to sell horses to Dou Jiande in the spring, but also named Dou Jiande an official son of King Changle.
Originally, Kedun's reward was nothing, after all, she could only call for wind and rain in the grassland, but Dou Hongxian was overjoyed in her heart, secretly thinking that if her father set up an altar to be king, this time the name would be justified, and it would be able to avoid the attack of officers and soldiers. The grassland matter is over, Xiao Buyi is still operating in the grassland, but the three of them left the grassland, turned around quickly, and when they talked about Xiao Buyi along the way, they couldn't help sighing, secretly thinking that although Dou Jiande can also be called the overlord, compared to Xiao Buyi and Li Mi, it seems that it is still worse.
"Uncle Liu, now that you're here, please turn around quickly and tell me about Daddy's grassland." Dou Hongxian looked at the distant mountains, and his expression was more stunned, "General Su, here to go south to the Yellow River, that is, to the area of Wagang, please go to Wagang and act according to the plan we discussed in advance." ”
Su Dingfang nodded, but Liu Heimin was puzzled: "Red line, don't you turn around with me?" ”
Dou Hongxian shook his head, "Uncle Liu, I still have some things, and after handling them, I'll rush back to Leshou." ”
Su Dingfang and Liu Heimin didn't ask much, said goodbye to Dou Hongxian, and chose the way to leave. Dou Hongxian looked at the two of them in the distance, but there was a faint sigh, urging the horse to go south.
Since Wagang broke through the Jindi Pass, captured Xingyang, and ambushed Zhang Xutuo, his power has increased greatly, and the Henan bandits have all come to take refuge, and they have vaguely become the overlord of the Central Plains bandits! In Xingyang County, except for Xingyang City and Yang Qing, the rest of the county has fallen.
Xingyang City is a lonely city, but it is difficult to attack. Wagang was not in a hurry to attack, but only trapped Xingyang City, but tried his best to develop the power on the south bank of the Yellow River. During this period, the counties around Xingyang, such as Yingchuan, Jiyin, Liang and other counties, were within the attack range of Wagang, and the outpost troops even approached the Tiger Pass. However, Hanoi County is on the north bank of the Yellow River, and Wagang still has no time to take care of it for a while.
But even so, Hanoi County is also full of bandits, arrogant. Seeing Dou Hongxian a lone woman, it was inevitable to think, Dou Hongxian's martial arts were not bad, but he didn't put these bandits in his eyes, but he just had something in his heart, and he only cared about urging the horse forward.
By noon, we had arrived at Van County, near the left of Hanoi County, where the mountains were rolling and facing the Yellow River. The cold winter has just passed, and everywhere is a desolate gray.
Dou Hongxian arrived at the foot of the mountain, looked up, and saw that the head was hanging high, shining on people, only warmth, but the scenery was vast, and there was no living person in the Nuoda Mountain Range, which was full of desolation.
Dou Hongxian seemed to be quite familiar with this place, picked up a mountain road and walked into the mountain, crossed the stream, and went straight to the mountain in front of him, but walked towards the mountain.
The mountain was so steep that it was gradually impossible to gallop the horse, so Dou Hongxian tied the horse to a tree on the hillside, and let it graze on its own, but it continued on its own way, and when it was halfway up the mountain, it had stopped.
There was a hut in a very simple state, but there was a tomb beside it, and in front of the grave was a man kneeling, motionless, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
**
Although it is the blue sky and white said, but this is where the mountain is located, the head can not shine here, under the bright and clear, the mountain wind blows, the gust is gloomy, if it is an ordinary person, seeing this strange scene, I am afraid that I will turn around and flee for my life. Dou Hongxian was not surprised at all, walked over slowly, did not hide the sound of footsteps, stood three feet away behind the kneeling man, and did not move, but in his eyes, there was a look of pity and sadness, somewhat mixed with some apologies.
The man who fell to the ground still did not move, as if he had become a tombstone, stiff and cold.
Looking from behind, I saw that he was thinly dressed, his hair was haphazardly pulled up, messy, and he seemed to have not been groomed for a long time.
He just knelt there, the mountain wind blowing, and his clothes fluttering, which made people believe that he was a human being, not a stone carving.
The pity in Dou Hongxian's eyes was even stronger, and he bit his red lips tightly, wanting to say something, but finally stopped.
His gaze looked over the man's stele-like figure and landed on the stele in front of the tomb. There are only a few big characters engraved on the stele, the tomb of Zhang Xutuo!
Dou Honghong's heart jumped violently a few times, of course it was not the first time she had seen this tombstone, but every time she saw it, she couldn't help but be excited.
Zhang Xutuo, the ordinary three words, itself has endless charm, not to mention the people who see him, even if they hear his deeds and see his name, they make many people's blood boil, and they can't be themselves.
These three words originally represent an undefeated legend!
Zhang Xutuo is not undefeated, he actually lost once in his life, and that failure resulted in his surname. He was not defeated by the enemy, but by himself, at least in Dou Hongxian's mind, she thought so.
If a person has no hope, no goal, no support, then he is no different from death!
The tragedy in front of the Great Sea Temple will never be forgotten by her, and everyone who witnesses it will never forget it for a lifetime. Every time Su Dingfang and Liu Heimin mentioned Dahai Temple, they would unconsciously change the topic, and Dou Hongxian knew that they were reluctant to mention it. They and Zhang Xutuo were originally like fire and water, and they must be separated from each other, and it is normal for this kind of calculation to emerge endlessly, but after Zhang Xutuo is really dead, what Su Dingfang and Liu Heimin think in their hearts, no one else will know. At least, they weren't happy!
If a person dies, he can still live in the hearts of many people, even if the enemy has to admire, at least he did not live in vain!
When Dou Hongxian thought of this, a strange thought suddenly sprung up, if one day he said that he was dead, I don't know who would remember?
The person in front of him can't forget Zhang Xutuo in his life, but what position does the three words Dou Hongxian occupy in his mind?
The two of them knelt and stood still, both quietly and motionless, from noon to dusk.
The setting sun finally turned over the mountainside, and the afterglow sprinkled a dazzling red on the mountainside, like the blood sprayed in front of the temple last year. The mountain breeze blows the body, the shadow falls, the red with a touch of blood, a touch of amazement, and that, the tragedy and repentance engraved into the bone marrow!
The kneeling man finally moved, his hair trembled slightly, Dou Hongxian had already seen it, and said urgently: "Shixin, are you okay?" ”
The man did not turn back, but fell slowly, and when he fell to the ground, he saw that his face was withered, his eyes were sunken, and his eyes were blank, like a dead man.
But her face vaguely made Dou Hongxian remember that this was to make her turn around a thousand times, and she deliberately came to Luo Shixin, who just wanted to see the previous one!
**
Luo Shixin lost a lot of weight, haggard and insincere, at first glance, he is no longer the heroic posture he was at the beginning, at first glance, he not only can not break into a thousand armies alone, but is just a person waiting for death.
But of course Dou Hongxian will not forget, who can forget the unforgettable first love?
She took a few steps forward, held Luo Shixin, and shouted: "Shixin, Shixin, wake up!" ”
Although Luo Shixin's eyes were still open, he didn't have any divine light, and he looked dying and could die at any time.
Dou Hongxian was shocked in his heart, secretly thinking that he was fortunate to turn around, how could he have thought that Luo Shixin would cut off his livelihood when he left last time? If I come a few days late, I'm afraid that there will be no such person as Luo Shixin in this world.
Cheered up and picked up Luo Shixin, but he felt that Nuo was a big man, light and terrifying, Dou Hongxian felt slightly sour in his heart, and helped him to the thatched hut, and found that the thatched hut was just a shelf, not to mention the rain, even the snow could not cover it.
Fortunately, it is early spring now, and there is no rain, otherwise it will be even more difficult.
In addition to the shelves, there is no place to rest in the thatched house, just rocks and mud, damp, Dou Hongxian looked around, and was at a loss. I had to put Luo Shixin on the ground first, and then rushed out to collect the dead grass.
After collecting the dead grass and turning around, Luo Shixin still lay on the ground as it was, not moving.
Dou Hongxian was shocked in his heart, only thinking that he had died, he stretched out his hand to probe his snort, feeling that there was still heat, and his heart was a little calm.
Her heart is like a knife at this moment, and she feels that Luo Shixin has become what he is today, which really has a lot to do with her, if she can't save Luo Shixin, she will not be at ease in this life. helped Luo Shixin to sleep on the dry grass, covered Luo Shixin with the dry grass, looked around again, and found that there was no grain, I really don't understand how Luo Shixin has come back to life these days.
Dou Hongxian got out of the thatched hut, Zhuxiang's kung fu, he had hunted a rabbit, a pheasant turned around, set up a shelf outside the thatched hut, baked the rabbit, and finally found a dilapidated iron pot in the thatched hut, a bowl that was broken in half, removed the pheasant from the feathers and internal organs, found a few big stones to set up the pot, and took the stream water, and stewed the chicken soup.
Although she was anxious, these movements were skillful, because she had been rebelling with her father and needed to take care of everything by herself.
kept busy outside Luo Shixin and the house, and finally waited until the rabbit was cooked, the water was boiling, and the pheasant was rotten, Dou Hongxian came in with half a bowl of chicken soup in a broken bowl, helped Luo Shixin up, and said softly: "Shixin, wake up, drink something." ”
She knew that Luo Shixin was not sick, most likely he was hungry, but he had lost dozens of pounds in just a few months. She boiled chicken soup, just hoping to replenish his body, these things were done naturally, at this moment, Luo Shixin was her life.
Luo Shixin slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze fell on Dou Hongxian's body, a little dazed.
Dou Hongxian was very surprised when he saw him open his eyes, and said softly: "Shixin, I am the red line, I am the red line......
Luo Shixin listened but didn't hear it, although his eyes fell on Dou Hongxian's body, it was as if he hadn't seen it.
Dou Hongxian has been busy all the time, and he doesn't care about the sourness, but when he sees him at this moment, tears are like broken thread beads, crackling and dripping onto Luo Shixin's face.
Luo Shixin was still numb, pursed his lips, and vaguely saw the arrogance of the year.
Dou Hongxian saw that his breathing was weak, but he was afraid that something would happen, so he put the bowl to Luo Shixin's mouth, and persuaded with tears: "Shixin, I am Hongxian, you are weak now, drink this chicken soup." ”
Luo Shixin still pursed his lips, and the soup came to his mouth, flowing down the corners of his mouth, and not a drop reached his mouth.
Dou Hongxian became anxious, "Shixin, no matter what, you can't practice yourself like this, open your mouth quickly...... Obedient ......"
She patiently coaxed and did everything possible, but Luo Shixin was motionless, let alone drinking the soup, Dou Hongxian's tears flowed down again, and he sobbed: "Shixin, you don't want to be like this, if General Zhang has a spirit in the sky, he doesn't want you to be like this." ”
When Luo Shixin heard this, the light in his eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly opened his mouth and began to swallow the chicken soup in a big gulp, and the chicken inside was chewed twice, and swallowed it stiffly, without any expression on his face. Dou Hongxian was overjoyed, and saw him finish drinking half a bowl of chicken soup, and hurriedly went out to serve it again. It's just that when I turned around, I saw him fall asleep in a daze, and I couldn't bear to wake him up. There is chicken soup, full of thoughts and melancholy.
Turned back to the thatched hut, ate some barbecue, but the taste was like chewing wax, thought for a while, saw the night falling, rest assured Luo Shixin, surnamed Suo rested on the weeds beside him against the pillar. On this day, I was physically and mentally haggard, and soon fell asleep in a daze. In a daze, he suddenly saw Luo Shixin standing in front of him covered in blood, with a long sword in his chest, but he didn't squeak, Dou Hongxian was shocked in his heart, Huo Ran opened his eyes, but saw the moon in the middle of the sky, cold and still, sprinkling brilliance through the thatched roof, a little sad. The moon shadow is still there, but Luo Shixin beside him is nowhere to be seen.
Dou Hongxian was taken aback, hurriedly stood up, raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Xutuo's grave first, only to see the road full of green light, and the two tombstones in front of the grave, one of course was Luo Shixin.
Luo Shixin was still kneeling upright, without saying a word, Dou Hongxian walked out, shattering the tranquility of the night, as if he had broken a heart again, but the tranquility could still be restored, but the heart was broken, and it couldn't get better.
She just stood behind Luo Shixin, knowing that persuasion was useless, but she couldn't bear to leave, she just stood until dawn, and waited until dawn.
At noon, Dou Hongxian was busy cooking on the fire again, and heated up the chicken soup that was not eaten yesterday.
As the daughter of Dou Jiande, since she was sensible, she has always been planning for her father's great cause, contacting the Supreme King, and the Wagang Alliance, rushing to the grassland, and never resting. As I said today, I only have one man in my heart, and it is unprecedented to cook for him and worry about him.
She and Luo Shixin actually met early, but it was the first time that she discovered that in her heart, Luo Shixin's weight was so heavy. She was just thinking that she had to let Luo Shixin live no matter what. I regretted it a little in my heart, knowing that he would be like this today, and I wouldn't have looked for him in the first place.
Thinking about it, Luo Shixin moved again, and Dou Hongxian looked nervously, just afraid that he would fall again. Luo Shixin did not fall to the ground again, but slowly kowtowed, knocking three times, although each time it was silent, but in Dou Hongxian's heart, he always felt thrilling, and the ground shook.
After Luo Shixin finished kowtowing, he stood up slowly, although his body was weak, he finally stood up, turned around slowly, and his eyes fell on Dou Hongxian's body for a long time.
This time, the gaze was not indifferent.
"You're here......"
Although it was a simple three words, at the moment of Dou Hongxian, he only felt that the light was bright and the air was fresh, his heart was full of joy, and he nodded vigorously, "Shixin, I'm here." ”
Luo Shixin looked at her for a long time, sat down slowly, grabbed half a chicken from the hot soup casually, and chewed it slowly.
He ate very slowly and carefully, but Dou Hongxian was happy in his heart, and when he saw a hand dripping with juice, he said bitterly: "Shixin, be careful, the water that was boiled is very hot." ”
Luo Shixin didn't say a word, just finished eating half a chicken, his eyes finally had a little brightness, and he muttered: "Yesterday was supposed to be the last day I guarded General Zhang's tomb. ”
Dou Hongxian nodded vigorously, "I know, so I ......"
"But I fainted, so I stayed for half a day today. I can't help but drink your chicken soup, because what I say and promise, I have to do. I don't drink chicken soup, and I don't have the strength to guard the tomb. ”
Simple things, he said simply, but the deep meaning made Dou Hongxian burst into tears, "Shixin, I know you are sad in your heart, but after all, people can't be resurrected after death......"
When she said this, she saw Luo Shixin's expression, and she couldn't say any more.
Luo Shixin didn't look at Dou Hongxian, and said to himself: "I should go." ”
He got up slowly, glanced at Zhang Xutuo's tombstone, turned around and staggered down the mountain.
Dou Hongxian Huo Ran stood up and shouted loudly: "Shixin! ”
Luo Shixin stopped, but he didn't look back, he didn't say anything, just stood silently.
Dou Hongxian walked over and asked with concern, "Shixin, where are you going?" ”
Luo Shixin looked into the distance, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Dou Hongxian said softly: "Shixin, I know you are in a very uncomfortable mood now, I understand you...... If you really have nowhere to go, you can stay with me...... Let's go to my dad's, my dad has a good impression of you. ”
Luo Shixin didn't have any expression on his face, and Dou Hongxian plucked up his courage and said, "Shixin, my mind ...... You...... Don't you understand? ”
"I don't understand." Luo Shixin's voice was as cold as ice.
Dou Hongxian's face was originally crimson, like the morning glow, but when he heard this, he suddenly lost his blood color and was as pale as jade.
"Shixin, I know you're still blaming me...... Blame me for not looking for you in the first place. I know I'm wrong, and if there really is a punishment from God, it is better to punish me alone, not to you. ”
The corners of Luo Shixin's mouth twitched slightly, "Dou Hongxian, you are wrong." ”
Dou Hongxian was stunned, "What did I say wrong?" Hearing Luo Shixin call his name, at that moment, his heart was like a knife, his hands were holding the corners of his clothes, and his heart was beating fast and slow.
Luo Shixin still looked at the mountains in the distance, but his voice was as ethereal as a white cloud, "Wrong is wrong, and you don't need to be treated by others." If you do it, you do it, and you don't need to be treated by others. ”
Dou Hongxian bit his red lip lightly and said in a low voice, "I know...... You were originally a man who stood up to the sky, so you knelt in front of General Zhang's grave to admit your mistake. At the beginning, before the Great Sea Temple, you snatched the body of General Zhang alone among the crowd, even if everyone in Wagang did not dare to stop it, it is enough for you to do this, I think whoever mentions the name Luo Shixin afterwards will say that Luo Shixin is a man. ”
Luo Shixin breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "Luo Shixin is a man? He burst into laughter, leaning back and forth, tears raging with laughter, and at that moment his expression seemed to be a little crazy. The laughter spread, the distant mountains turned, and for a time there was only this crazy laughter left in the heavens and the earth.
Dou Hongxian was a little frightened and couldn't speak.
Luo Shixin's laughter finally stopped, Huo Ran turned his head to look at Dou Hongxian, and said coldly: "We have known each other since childhood, and we are childhood sweethearts, although we have been separated for a long time, I know that you must think that I like you." ”
There were tears in Dou Hongxian's eyes, and he said softly: "I didn't think you liked me, but since you beat the bandits for me and saved me from humiliation, I have liked you!" ”
Luo Shixin listened quietly, confusion flashed in his eyes, and he disappeared in an instant, "You must also think that I left General Zhang and didn't go to the Great Sea Temple to rescue General Zhang because of you?" ”
Dou Hongxian said softly: "I'd rather ......"
"Actually, you are very wrong." Luo Shixin said coldly: "I betrayed General Zhang, it was definitely not because of your red line, and I ask you not to be sentimental, so you don't have to have any burden." I saved your life, you also saved my life today, everything you owe has been paid off, from now on the Dou red line is the Dou red line, Luo Shixin is Luo Shixin, and there is nothing to do with it! ”
At this point, he staggered forward, as if to flee from here.
Dou Hongxian said loudly: "Shixin, I still want to say something." ”
Luo Shixin slowly stopped and said lightly: "Do you still want to go back to that pot of chicken?" ”
Dou Hongxian's nails had already entered the flesh, but he still said calmly: "Shixin, I just want to tell you, no matter where you go in the future, remember, General Zhang must have forgiven you in the spirit of heaven, you must not do anything stupid again!" ”
Luo Shixin grinned, with an indescribable desolation and ridicule in his smile, and said word for word: "I knew that General Zhang would forgive me, but because of this, I can't forgive myself!" ”
After he said this, without any further hesitation, he had already descended the mountain. He didn't know where he got the strength, he walked very fast, but his body was too weak, his steps were vain, his steps were unsteady, and he stumbled and rolled down the mountain.
Dou Hongxian was taken aback, and was about to go down to help him up, but he didn't expect Luo Shixin to roll all the way down, hit a big tree, and finally stopped castration, struggled to get up, and finally reached the foot of the mountain and disappeared.
From beginning to end, Luo Shixin never looked back, Dou Hongxian looked at Luo Shixin and finally disappeared, and the tears could no longer be suppressed, rolling down.
Blue sky and white clouds, a sunny day, Dou Hongxian felt that the sun was shining on the earth, but there was no trace of warmth falling on her!
**
Although the sun fell on Luo Shixin, his heart was cold, in the past few months, the wind and snow, the sky was cold, but he couldn't resist the cold in his heart!
Luo Shixin kept walking, his mind was blank, he just wanted to go farther, the farther away from the red line of Dou, the better.
I climbed over the mountains, waded through the stream, and then crossed the jungle, I don't know how long I walked, and the front was cheerful and the river was surging.
The Yellow River flows into the sea in the east, without hesitation, but Luo Shixin is a little dazed in the face of the river, and he has no idea for a while.
The world is so big, he feels that there is no place for him!
Although it was bitter cold for several months in the mountains, he finally had a sustenance and was able to repent, but when he came down the mountain, his mind was blank for a while, like a river.
The sound of footsteps behind him sounded, and Luo Shixin didn't look back, but he knew that the man was in martial arts.
He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, experienced in a hundred battles, and joined the army at the age of fourteen, but he is already unstoppable. Although his body is weak now, his ear power is still there, and when he hears the master approaching, he is not half guarded, even if the other party pushes him into the surging river, he doesn't care.
The footsteps had stopped behind him, and a voice said, "Shixin, are you okay?" ”
Luo Shixin's body froze, clenched his fists, and did not look back, but just smiled mockingly: "Cheng biting gold? ”
The man walked slowly in front of Luo Shixin, with a black face, a fluffy beard, and a mighty and fierce face, it was Cheng Yanjin, one of the three generals under Zhang Xutuo!
Luo Shixin and Cheng Yanjin were very familiar, and just by listening to the voice, they had already guessed that it was him.
"Shixin, I haven't seen you for a long time, you have lost a lot of weight." Cheng Yanjin sighed.
"You're fat." Luo Shixin said indifferently.
Cheng Yanjin's face was a little unnatural, and he said after a while: "I'm actually here, just waiting for you." ”
"I'm not here to look for you." Luo Shixin didn't have a good face for the people who fought side by side in the past.
Cheng Yanjin's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "I know you're blaming me, you're blaming me for not asking for help in the first place, you blame me......"
Luo Shixin laughed, full of ridicule, and interrupted him, "What right do I have to blame you?" ”
The two of them didn't talk speculatively, and it seemed that they were about to fight if they didn't agree, Cheng Biting Jin took a long breath and suddenly said: "Shixin, what do you say people are doing in this life?" ”
Luo Shixin didn't answer, Cheng Yanjin had already said to himself, "Some people are for fame, and some people are for profit." Why should those who are not for fame and fortune wander in this world? I don't know much, but I also know that when someone punches me, I won't send my face over. I also practiced martial arts, so brave and ruthless, at that time I still just wanted to be a guard in the Great Sui, promoted to a general, and returned home in majestic clothes...... But later, the bandits came, there were many bandits, I didn't wait to be a general, I first had to organize my hometown fathers to resist the bandits, at this time, I met General Zhang! General Zhang is brave and invincible, very good to people, good to the people, good to me, and ...... result"
"And you betrayed him?" Luo Shixin asked coldly.
Cheng Biting Jin raised his eyebrows, "Shixin, I betrayed General Zhang, what about you?" "His temper is not too good, and Luo Shixin is always sarcastic, and it is inevitable that he will lose his temper, if it weren't for something to find Luo Shixin, he would have turned around and left at the moment.
Luo Shixin smiled, "I also betrayed the general, and I am deeply guilty, so I won't reduce it by half a point just because you also betrayed it." ”
Cheng Yanjin stared at Luo Shixin, and said after a while: "I followed the general to fight in the east and west, and I felt refreshed at first, but slowly, I found that I didn't know what I was doing. Protecting the homeland? Isn't it that I'm getting farther and farther away from home, for the sake of the Great Sui? But it doesn't seem to be, because the Great Sui is stormy. The emperor and his son avoided Yangzhou, ignoring the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui, we are still fighting for the country, isn't this a big joke? ”
Luo Shixin was silent this time, and Cheng Yanjin sighed, "Actually, I wanted to leave for a long time, and I stayed only because of General Zhang's benevolence, but if he fights Wagang again, I can only leave, because I don't know when it will end." Besides, General Zhang is brave and invincible, and he is invincible without Cheng Biting Jin! He died because he wanted to die. If he doesn't want to die, who in the world can kill him? So Shixin, you don't have to feel too guilty! ”
Luo Shixin laughed again, and even more ridiculed, "Whether General Zhang wants to live or not is one thing, whether we betray or not is another, this must not be confused!" Cheng Biting Jin, what others do wrong doesn't mean that we did it right, don't you understand this truth? ”
Cheng Biting Jin took a long breath and said in a condensed voice: "No matter what...... This time, I came to discuss something with you. ”
"You say."
"Wagang is now powerful, vaguely the overlord of the Central Plains, Pushan Gong Li Mi is thirsty for talent, and he already knows that Shixin is your name, so I let me wait here, I only ask you to abandon your previous suspicions, go to Wagang, and seek common cause." Cheng Yanjin said sincerely: "Shixin, now that Dasui is no longer able to return to the sky, it is the right way to retreat early, you and I have met once, don't delay the future because of righteousness." ”
"You can, I can't." Luo Shixin said suddenly.
Cheng Biting Jin was slightly stunned, "What do you mean?" ”
Luo Shixin said word for word: "You can take refuge in Wagang for a thousand reasons, but I can't extinguish the last trace of apology in my heart." ”
After saying this, he stopped a boat that was going down the river, jumped into the boat, and let the boatman row straight to the opposite bank, never to look back.
The river is surging, the mighty eastward, looking at the past, endlessly!
