"It's your favorite." Grandpa Qin pointed at the little second brother and smiled. "After that day, I saw the fortune teller again half a month later, and he came to the teahouse to eat again, and I went up to thank him and invited him to drink. The two of them also talked and laughed, and he finally got drunk, and told me that he came from a far, far future world, and that he had accidentally traveled through time and space to reach our age, and I thought he was drunk and talking nonsense, so I didn't take it to heart. When he woke up, he told me that the Qin State was going to attack the Zhao State, and this place would soon become the territory of the Qin State, and he asked us to move our family to Xianyang of the Qin State, saying that it was the land of the Long Time. ”

"I am also old, and I am sick, and I want to go back to my hometown to recuperate. Leaving a few guys to look after the store, he came back here with Ergou. As he expected, the Qin State soon sent troops to attack the Zhao State, and in the first battle of Handan, the Zhao State was defeated, and the entire Handan was ambushed with millions of corpses, and the blood flowed like a river. All the men left behind were killed by the Qin soldiers, and the teahouse was also demolished. Naturally, we are embarrassed. ”

"Later, I met him again on this road, and he asked me why I didn't move to Xianyang. I thought that my old man was in his sixties, and he was born in the Zhao State, and he could not enter the Qin State when he died, so the matter was put on hold. He also said that he went to Xianyang to seek work, and he could come to Xianyang to find him if he had any difficulties in the future, and he had almost forgotten him for more than a year, if he hadn't met his little brother today, I was afraid that he would never have remembered it again. ”

After hearing this, Shi Jinlang couldn't help but think up and down in his heart, it turned out that there was really time and space travel, this Shi Banxian must be a figure from the Qin Dynasty and later dynasties, but he didn't know if he was in the same period as himself.

wrath

Xi'er stared at Shi Jinlang with a pair of big eyes and asked, "Big brother, are all of you people there flying around on the clouds?" ”

Shi Jinlang looked at Grandpa Qin, who was also puzzled, and the second brother explained: "I just learned it by chance, and I wasn't born like this. ”

The little second brother's eyes widened: "Oh my God, I've lived for forty years and haven't seen anyone who can fly, and I have to meet him today no matter what, and it's not in vain that I've lived for so many years." ”

Shi Jinlang saw that everyone was full of interest, and it was inconvenient to brush off everyone's meaning, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll just... ”

At this moment, an earth-shattering knock on the door interrupted Shi Jinlang, and then a rude voice shouted: "Xiao Er, hurry up and come over and open the door for the military master." ”

Another voice cursed: "This bad weather, it's raining so hard, fuck it." ”

Xi'er said in horror when she heard this: "It's Qin Bing, you can't let them see me and my eldest brother, otherwise there will definitely be trouble." ”

Grandpa Qin immediately said: "Ergou, you take Xi'er and this little brother to the upstairs wing room to rest, it's enough for me here." ”

The little second brother beckoned Shi Jinlang and Xi'er to go upstairs, Xi'er hugged Grandpa Qin's arm and didn't let go: "Grandpa Qin, you won't have anything to do, Xi'er will stay with you." ”

"Xi'er is obedient, grandpa can deal with it alone, it's not the first time, you go upstairs with your big brother first, and grandpa will see you later."

Hearing this, Xi'er let go of Grandpa Qin's arm, and followed the little second brother up to the second floor with Shi Jinlang.

In the wing room on the second floor. Xi'er said: "Grandpa Qin and Grandpa are fellow villagers, both from Zhao State, and they fought Qin State together as soldiers in Zhao State, so the relationship is very good." A few years ago, in a war between Zhao and Qin, Zhao was defeated, and grandpa rescued Grandpa Qin in the pile of dead, and since then the two have bid farewell to the barracks and returned to their hometown. Because of this, Grandpa Qin is very good to me, every time I make a mistake at home, I come to Grandpa Qin's place to eat and drink. ”

Shi Jinlang let out an "oh" to understand the reason.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of smashing porcelain downstairs, followed by shouts and the exclamation of the little second brother: "You... What are you killing ... Homicide? ”

Xi'er was startled, pulled Shi Jinlang out of the door, and ran downstairs in one breath.

I saw an old decorative vase on the floor shattered into pieces, and Grandpa Qin was covered in blood and fell motionless in a pool of blood, his forehead gushing with blood.

Xi'er screamed and pounced.

Seeing Shi Jinlang and the two coming down from upstairs, the two Qin soldiers seemed to have confidence, pointing at Shi Jinlang and shouting at the second brother: "Why are you killing people?" That's why. ”

As he spoke, Qi Shushu pulled out the saber on his waist and slashed at the head of the little second brother.

Shi Jinlang shouted loudly and stopped. The voice fell in front of him, and his hands slapped two palms in the air. Before the two Qin soldiers could react, they had already involuntarily flew out, hitting the mottled wall before they stopped.

Shi Jinlang strode forward and asked, "Why are you killing people?" So lawless. ”

The little second brother was frightened, and ran up tremblingly and said, "Two armies... The military master thought that the food in the store was not to his liking, and asked Uncle Qin to kill two live chickens to serve them, but the business in the store was not very good, and the live chickens, ducks and poultry were raised and food was wasted, so the store had never fed them. Uncle Qin couldn't take it out, the two military masters lost their temper, and without saying a word, they picked up the vase on the ground and smashed it on Uncle Qin's head, poor Uncle Qin is sixty-six years old this year, and his health is not good, now... NOW ... ”

When Shi Jinlang heard this, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he walked straight towards the two people on the ground.

The two Qin soldiers groaned and pretended to be calm and threatened: "You... Don't come here, you've killed so many people, our people are about to surround here, you surrender as soon as possible, I can also help you beg Lord Lieutenant, stay... Leave your life behind. ”

Shi Jinlang was unmoved, continued to stride forward, and said coldly: "People like you are not enough to pay for their mistakes, and living is also continuing to create sins. ”

Yuelai Inn stood lonely in the wind and rain, and there were scenes of blood under the dim light. The screams of the two Qin soldiers were mixed with Xi'er's hoarse cries and lifted the roof and rushed straight to the top of the nine heavens.

Conventions

Shi Jinlang squatted down and hugged Xi'er's shoulders that were trembling up and down due to sobbing and said, "Xi'er, don't cry, Grandpa Qin definitely doesn't want to see you like this." ”

Xi'er's sad voice trembled: "I killed Grandpa Qin, blame me, blame me for not being good, Xi'er is a bad girl, a broom star, killing my mother They are not enough, they also want to kill Grandpa Qin, Xi'er deserves to die." ”

Shi Jinlang's heart was gloomy: "How can I blame you, blame the big brother, the big brother shouldn't have appeared here, breaking your peaceful life, and as a result, everyone was ruined and displaced." ”

The little second brother also had tears in his eyes, and scolded Shi Jinlang and said: "Yes, it's all your fault, if you don't come, Uncle Qin won't die." ”

At this moment, Grandpa Qin, who was in Xi'er's arms, suddenly coughed and came to his senses: "Ergou, don't be rude." ”

Xi'er shouted in surprise: "Grandpa Qin, Grandpa Qin, it turns out that you are not dead, Xi'er is about to die of sadness." ”

Grandpa Qin's pale face barely showed a hint of a smile, turned his head to look at Shi Jinlang and said, "Little brother, I don't have much time, because I can't rest assured that Xi'er can't be relieved, so I breathed a sigh of relief." I and Xi'er's grandfather are world friends, and life and death brothers, I have been lonely and widowed all my life, no children, Xi'er I regard as my own granddaughter, I can not rest assured, today I entrust her to you, beg you to help me take care of her, the old man will die without regrets. ”

Tears rolled down from the corners of Shi Jinlang's eyes, and he stepped forward to hold Grandpa Qin's hand and said, "I promised Xi'er's mother before, even if Grandpa Qin doesn't say it, I will do my best to take care of Xi'er." It's just that... It's just that what happened to Grandpa Qin today, it's all to blame on me... ”

Grandpa Qin's voice trembled: "How can I blame you, people always have to leave in their lives, it's just a matter of fighting for early and late, the old man has lived enough for so many years." ”

Shi Jinlang burst into tears, whimpering and speechless.

Grandpa Qin turned his head to look at the little second brother and said, "Ergou, you have been with me for decades, and there will be no time after saying goodbye today, you clean up the store and find a peaceful place to live a good life." ”

After saying that, Grandpa Qin closed his eyes peacefully.

Xi'er and the shopkeeper fought to hug Grandpa Qin's body, shaking and screaming incessantly, just returning to the light, the person was already dead.

Shi Jinlang thought of his parents again, and he was even more sad, and the tears in his eyes seemed to be unstoppable.

After that day, Shi Jinlang and the others buried Grandpa Qin, said goodbye to the shopkeeper, and embarked on an unknown journey aimlessly.

The rain-washed sky is particularly blue, unknown birds pass by in the air, and there is no end to the desolation in sight.

Xi'er and Shi Jinlang walked one after another, Xi'er was still crying quietly, and Shi Jinlang was also generally sad in his heart, so he didn't comfort Xi'er.

Xi'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stopped and turned to look at Shi Jinlang, and said with a smile: "Big brother, where are we going?" ”

Shi Jinlang also had no opinion, and remembered the stone half-immortal that Grandpa Qin said, so he said: "Find a market town to find the next road first, let's go to Xianyang to find that stone half-immortal." ”

Xi'er stared at Shi Jinlang with red and swollen eyes, and asked cautiously, "Did the eldest brother find that Shi Banxian to go back to the original world?" ”

Shi Jinlang said casually: "Well, there are many of my friends there, and if they go back late, they will be worried." ”

Xi'er's eyes dimmed: "Is that not Xi'er?" ”

Shi Jinlang woke up and said: "How come, I want to go back with Xi'er, there is no war there, it is ten thousand times better than here." ”

Xi'er smiled when she heard this: "What the big brother said, if you want to talk, let's pull the hook." ”

Shi Jinlang was infected by Xi'er's simple happiness, and stretched out his hand to pull the hook with Xi'er with a smile.

"Hanging on the hook will not change for a hundred years."

"Hanging on the hook will not change for a hundred years."

encounter

The happiness of youth is always easily satisfied, just like a snow-white cotton, a piece of colored candy paper, so simple, so innocent. Xi'er is like this, simply making people want to fight with their lives to protect, naïve like an angel who does not eat fireworks in the world.

The two of them went all the way to the north, but they couldn't even see their own homes in the afternoon, all of them were vast and boundless. Directly in front of it is a small mountain col, which has been mottled by wind and sand all over the gravel for many years, and the whole mountain is bare. Shi Jinlang and the two pressed the clouds and wanted to rest here for a while, when a fighting sound suddenly sounded in the valley in front of them.

Shi Jinlang and Xi'er couldn't hide their curiosity, and slowly climbed up the mountainside and leaned over to take a peek.

I saw dozens of people in the narrow valley, and when I looked closely, there were more than a dozen soldiers wearing iron armor and holding broadswords around a bloodstained young man in the innermost part with the mountain wall as a semicircle, and a man dressed as a eunuch stood outside the circle, who was smiling gloomily at the moment: "Brothers, what do you say to deal with him?" ”

Dozens of people shouted in unison: "Kill him!" Kill him! ”

The surrounded young man held the long sword tightly in his right hand, and pressed the blood on his leg with his left hand, and scolded: "Chang Yu, you take my mother as a threat, and you are treacherous to get me out of the palace, shameless and despicable, thinking that I am Zhao Zhengying I, but I will die at the hands of you, a eunuch, which is really a great shame in my life." ”

The man dressed as a eunuch pulled his throat and said: "Don't talk nonsense, if you die, I will be the lord of Qin, and I will rule the world in the future, and I will be the first emperor, so you can go with peace of mind, and on this day next year, I will remember to bring someone to worship you." The voice changed: "Brothers, cut him for me!" ”

Xi'er saw that he was pitiful, and said to Shi Jinlang: "Big brother, can you save him?" ”

Shi Jinlang's heart of pity rose, and he didn't answer, but jumped out and yelled: "Stop!" ”

The echo in the whole valley rumbled, everyone stood on the spot, and forgot to do it for a while, the young man who was surrounded saw the opportunity, jumped up, held a sword flower in his right hand, and the sword light flashed, and the soldiers who were originally surrounding him suddenly fell down four or five.

The man dressed as a eunuch woke up and roared, "You killed this troublesome rabbit cub for me!" ”

Shi Jinlang was furious when he heard this, the green light in his hand burst out, and he rushed up to meet the few soldiers who rushed over, the blue light flashed, and several soldiers who came to intercept and kill Shi Jinlang fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of people were crooked, and blood was everywhere in the entire small valley, and the man dressed as a eunuch was timid when he saw this, so he turned around and ran towards the mouth of the valley.

Shi Jinlang teleported to intercept his way, grabbed his collar and dragged him back.

The young man hugged his sword and rushed to the waves and thanked him: "Thank you for the grace of the strong man for saving his life, Zhao Zheng is unforgettable." ”

Shi Jinlang let go of the man and softly called Xi'er out.

Xi'er ran in from the valley mouth, glanced at the bloodied young man, and cried out, "Oh, you're bleeding from your leg!" ”

Xi'er walked up as she spoke, and tore off a strip of cloth from her body and carefully wrapped the wound for him.

When it was over, Xi'er asked, "Does it still hurt?" ”

The young man's face was flushed, and he muttered, "Thank you... Thank you, girl! ”

Xi'er said in an old-fashioned manner: "As the so-called road is uneven, pull out a knife to help, don't be thankful." ”

Shi Jinlang and the young man were stunned, and immediately laughed.

Seeing this, Xi'er was puzzled: "Why are you laughing so happily, did I say the wrong thing?" ”

When the two of them heard this, they leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.
