Chapter 235: Iron Riding into a Dream (2)
――――――――――――
The "whooshing" stream of water poured on the green leaves, breaking down the dew on the green leaves and moistening a weed under the leaves.
The lively and active dog is not honest when peeing, looking around with his head up, and even the little warmth splashing on his pants is not noticed.
He seems to have been holding back for a long time, perhaps he didn't care about it when he got up early in the morning, and his mind was full of sweet and delicious sweet cakes, so much so that he brought all the boy's urine that had accumulated all night.
Suddenly, a "ding" sound caught his attention, prompting him to withdraw his attention and follow the sound with great curiosity. But the dense foliage was full of his "masterpieces", ticking and falling into the grass like rain, and nothing else.
Seeing that he didn't see anything jingling, the dog was not discouraged, and he would not give up lightly, but became more and more curious. Immediately, I saw him holding the "spring eye" and aiming at the wide leaf in front of him and erupting vigorously, instantly distorting the leaf, and immediately revealing the shining object hidden under the leaf. The crisp sound just now was made by it, and the first time I saw it, the dog knew that it was doing something wrong.
As the flow of water broke off, a bubble of boy urine ran out, and the leaves flipped over, covering the shiny object again. The dog lifted his trousers, but did not stop there, curiosity drove him to find out, and perhaps in his mind, something that glowed was far more playful than the stick in his hand.
Do what you want. But when he used the bamboo stick in his hand to pick up the leaves in front of him, he found that the glowing object hidden under the leaves was gone. Immediately, he was anxious, as if his toy had been snatched away, and he hurried over without thinking about it. Step on the wet grass and get in front of the dense leaves. Hands apacing away vines and leaves that obscure view.
Suddenly, the dog's eyes widened and he looked at the scene before him without blinking: but behind the vines he saw a tall and sturdy steed. This was followed by cavalrymen in black armor and scarlets, as well as spears and halberds in their hands. The glowing object that had just attracted the dogs was the halberd in their hands, and the boy's urine slipped from the leaves and landed on the halberd with a crisp sound.
These cavalrymen, lurking in the woods and dense fog, were looking at the sluggish dog with a cold face at the moment, their eyes were extremely cold, and the eyes of the dog were like looking at a dead man, without a trace of emotional fluctuations, let alone the slightest pity.
The cold gaze frightened the dog back a few steps. His young cheeks were so white and white that he swallowed so hard in his throat that he was so frightened that he did not dare to make a sound, let alone scream. Perhaps he thought that none of these fierce people had woken up and seen themselves, or why didn't they move?
At this moment, a ray of morning light came out of the sky and suddenly shone into the woods. Moment. The dog's eyes widened suddenly, and the sight of leaping into his eyes completely scared him stupid.
But under the morning light, the fog that shrouded the mountains and forests instantly became thinner, making the originally foggy woods suddenly open up. Suddenly it became clearly visible. Almost as soon as the morning light appeared, the dog's vision was completely occupied by the extremely shocking scene in front of him, only to see that it stretched ten steps away from the dog's eyes to the end of the line of sight. The vast woods were full of black-armored cavalry with tall horses, and the black was overwhelming. The number of people is already too numerous to count. At least the number of dogs who are only seven years old is unknown. Although he had been able to count to two hundred, the number of cavalry in front of him was completely beyond the range of what he knew. It's impossible to count.
"Ahh In the sudden scream, but saw the dog screaming and running to the city gate: "Daddy, daddy, daddy??????! He was frightened, and shouted Liu Laohan while running, maybe he wanted to remind Liu Laohan that there were people in the woods, but he couldn't express it clearly in a hurry, and he didn't know who the person hiding in the woods was, a good person or a bad person. It was because he only cared about yelling, blindly calling his father, and running desperately to the city gate.
"Dogs!" The moment the scream came, Liu Laohan stood up suddenly, and he was about to step forward to meet him without thinking about it, but the city gate opened at this moment, and the two bundles of dry firewood leaning on the city gate lost their support and immediately fell, tripping Liu Laohan's left foot, causing him to fall to the ground sideways due to his unstable body.
Just as he fell to the ground, he saw the dog running towards the city gate, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart hanging in his throat slowly fell.
"It turned out to be a false alarm, my son is fine, but he is a little timid, and he will be scared after a little away from himself. But it's unusual to yell like this, he didn't do this before, what's wrong with it today? Liu Laohan muttered in his heart as he got up.
Casually dragging two bundles of firewood to the side of the city gate, Liu Laohan beckoned his son to come over quickly, and bent down to pick up the burden and prepare to enter the city. At this time, a team of armor soldiers came out of the city, and the leading chief greeted Liu Laohan: "Old Liu, come so early." "Hey, the dogs are here, too!"
Liu Laohan said with a smile: "The owner is in a hurry, I can't come if I don't come!" ”
Shi Chang nodded and chuckled: "You are a diligent person, you have been the first to enter the city every day over the years, and you can cook for your daughter-in-law when you hand over the firewood." Huhhehe???? Hey, the dogs are coming, too! ”
"The boy was greedy, and went into the city with me early in the morning. Hey, hey, hey! Liu Laohan said with a smile. As he spoke, he walked into the city gate with his burden, but he looked back at the crying dog running over.
Shi Chang saw that there were still tears on the dog's red face, and frowned and said, "Old Liu, how can you be willing to beat him with such a precious son?" Isn't it just sweet cakes, if you are reluctant to spend money, I will buy a few sweet cakes for the dog, and I can't afford to beat the child! ”
After speaking, Shi Chang turned over from the war horse, touched the dog's face, squatted in front of him, and said with a smile: "The dog doesn't cry, your father is just slamming the door, in fact, he still hurts you very much, and when you want to eat sweet cakes in the future, you will come to your uncle, your father won't buy it for you, but your uncle will buy it for you." Dog, don't cry, okay? ”
Shi Chang's words made Liu Laohan's face flush, and he had the heart to defend a few words, but he saw that the dog was indeed crying, which made him very distressed, and he was about to step forward to ask the reason, but he was squeezed behind by Shi Chang, and he couldn't interject at all.
The dog is very familiar with Shichang, and when Liu Laohan went into the city to deliver firewood, he left the dog at the gate of the city, and Shichang watched the dog for him. Speaking of which, Shi Chang is really the dog's uncle, he and Liu Laohan are distant relatives, but they are relatives of Wufu, and they only know that there is this kind of kinship when they are familiar with each other.
The dog was very sensible, and said that if he did not cry, he would not cry, and after the chief had wiped away his tears, he pointed to the woods outside the city gate and said, "There are people there." ”
Shi Chang heard the change in color, looked up at the woods, and asked, "There are people in the woods, who are they?" ”
The dog was a little scared, so he hurriedly hid behind Liu Laohan and said timidly: "People like you." After speaking, the dog pointed to the war horse next to Shi Chang, and then pointed at the armor soldiers, and then his finger fell on the long weapon in the armor soldier's hand, and said, "There are many such people, and the woods are everywhere. ”
"Huh?" As the dog's fingers looked all the way, Shi Chang immediately thought of who the dog was talking about, and said in shock: "Cavalry? How could there be cavalry here? Not good??????"
"Boom, Tick!" At the moment when Shi Chang reacted, there was a sound of breaking through the air, followed by thousands of sharp arrows, followed by the rumbling sound of horses.
"Puff puff!" The sharp arrows came suddenly, drowning the nine armor soldiers in the rain of arrows in the blink of an eye, Shi Chang was agile, lying on the ground and rolling to avoid the first round of arrows, and easily pushed Liu Laohan and his son behind the city gate.
"This is a sneak attack by the Jingzhou army to attack the city, you two are hiding here, and after they enter the city, you will immediately go out of the city and go home, and don't go out unless you have to." As he spoke, Shi Chang pushed Liu Laohan and the dog into the corner behind the city gate, and then stuffed two bundles of firewood into them to block them.
"Close the gates!" After settling Liu Laohan's father and son in the shortest possible time, Shi Chang shouted loudly while pulling his throat and rushing up to the city tower. When he climbed the tower and tried to ring the bell to warn, a sharp arrow burst into his right arm, followed by more than a dozen sharp arrows that broke through the air and stuck in him.
"Bell---!" When he was dying, Shi Chang slammed his head against the bronze bell hanging in the middle of the tower, and the bell rang and his life ended.
In the sound of horses' hooves, the black-pressed cavalry poured into the city gate like a torrent, and rushed straight to the city guard's mansion. The rumbling sound of horses lasted for two quarters of an hour, and Liu Laohan clearly saw more than 20,000 cavalry rushing into the city, watching the Shi Chang brothers crash to death on the city tower, and at this moment the unrecognizable head was directly above the heads of him and the dog, and the red blood dripped on his face, staining the coarse cloth clothes on his body. For two long quarters of an hour, he held the dog tightly in his arms and covered his mouth for fear that he would cry.
Allowing the blood above his head to fall on his head, face, and neck, Liu Laohan remained motionless and did not make a sound. He was not afraid of death, the elder brother could lose his life for their father and son, and he could also die for his own brother, but he had a seven-year-old son in his arms, and his daughter and wife died in front of him eight years ago, and he could no longer watch his son die. So he has to live no matter what, and after he settles his wife and children, he will go to complete the mission of Brother Shi, even if it is to pay for Brother Shi's life.
He has no lofty ideals in this life, nor does he have the ability to excel, he lives entirely on his own hands and shoulders, never owes favors to others, and lives hard and backbone. If a person lives for a breath, he lives by his backbone, otherwise he would have died a long time ago. At this moment, his brother took his life for him, and he knew that he wanted to transmit the news of the Jingzhou army's sneak attack, but unfortunately he didn't finish it, so the next road was followed by him Liu Laohan.
