Chapter 65: The pen is like a blade

"Niu Erli, unload this ship's medicinal materials today, and you can work on shifts with Lao Sun. "In front of the cargo ship, there is a foreman commanding.

At night, no matter how dark the sky is, it can't stop the lights here from being bright and crowded. After a day's continuous rotation, it is difficult to eat even if you are strong, not to mention that people like Niu Erli have only been working here for five days, and the whole person is skinny and skinny, and he is thinner than when he first came. Even the food is not as good as day by day, and it is difficult to see meat every day.

"This is the last bag of honeysuckle. On the boat, someone shouted loudly, and the people below were relieved when they heard this, Niu Erli didn't say a word, and carried this bag of Venus flowers, which weighed nearly 100 catties, but when he was about to carry it to the cart, his feet were unstable, and he directly rolled over on the ground with medicine.

Before Niu Erli could get up, the overseer whipped it up early, "You eat white food, so much rice and cabbage are eaten in vain, you can't even carry a sack." You don't care if you die of the plague, you miss the important matter of the owner, and you can get a few taels of silver if you peel your skin and bones, what are you doing lying on your stomach, and you won't get up for me. ”

The cow was silent, and the sack broke open a hole because of the moment just now, and a lot of honeysuckle fell to the ground, so he had to stuff some of it indiscriminately, and then carried the sack, continued to stagger forward, gritted his teeth and threw it into the cart, left silently, and went to the back resting place.

"Little cow, don't be uneasy, we are all poor errands who sell coolies, we have no other skills, and if we don't look at it in our hearts, we have to suffocate to death here. In the Chase shop, there was a comforting saying that they were working together.

Niu Erli just replied sullenly, "Got it, Uncle Sun." He lay down on the bed. It is said that it is a bed, but in fact it is a long wooden plank, covered with a mattress, more than a dozen people sleep in one room, and the smell of sweat alone is enough to suffocate people. But it is not easy for people who have unloaded five ships of goods in a day and sold all their strength to have a place to lie down, so for a while, there is one snoring after another.

Niu Erli couldn't sleep, took out a handful of honeysuckle that was secretly stuffed in his pocket, and looked at it in a trance.

That year, he was eight years old and could cook, tidy up the house, and take care of his mother.

The father was working at the foreman's place, and broke his leg, the foreman fled, and the father who broke one leg could no longer do heavy work, so he could only beg along the street, and his mother's illness required a lot of money, but there were too many fake beggars on the street, and no one believed his story. He decided to steal, and he didn't steal it into the hands of the big family, and on the night he was beaten to death, his mother secretly left a desperate note, struggled to get up and jumped into the river.

Eight-year-old Niu Erli took his mother's letter and cried to look for it on the street.

It was also that night that he secretly swore in his heart that whoever could mourn for his parents would sell his life to whomever he wanted.

Su family, Wu Muxin looked at the clouds in the sky in a daze, and said nothing. In the twilight, beside the pool, under the weeping willows, two white figures, one large and one small, sat here for half an hour, silent, and the heavens and the earth were silent.

"Girl, you have been watching the clouds here for a long time, can you really see a flower from it, Xiao Ran washed her hands in the pool, looked at the reflection in the water, boring to disturb the water surface, I really don't think it is interesting.

Wen Lao happened to come over at this time, touched Xiao Yan's bun with a smile and said: "Little girl doesn't understand, there is a rhetoric here, let Xiao look at the sky and twilight and look at the clouds, do and think about you, and sit and think about you." ”

Wu Muxin got up to greet him, and said softly: "Elder Wen said something wrong this time, it's just that he was slacking off and going out alone." ”

Old man Wen took out a letter from his bosom with a look of I understand, I understand, and said respectfully: "This is what Young Master Wang Fugui just sent to send someone, saying that he wanted the girl to open it in person, and you will know it when you read it." ”

Wu Muxin opened the letter, glanced at it slightly, and his brows were already lightly relaxed, and then his slender hand closed slightly, and he didn't see any movement, and the yellowed letter paper had turned into ashes.

"What is written on it. Cumin wanted to take a peek with her feet crossed, but unfortunately she was a step too late.

"Don't bother the girl, the girl has been so busy lately that she can't even close her eyes, the most important thing we should do now is to keep our duty. Wen Lao brought a ball of kindness and pulled out the curious cumin.

On the bluestone road, the little girl turned around three times, shook her head and asked: "I still don't understand, what is the meaning of walking and thinking of Jun, sitting and thinking of Jun, who is Sijun, and what does it have to do with looking at the clouds." ”

"Hey, hey. Old man Wen smiled ambiguously, looking at the virtuous and gentle woman not far away, and the woman in an innocent mood, only to see her sitting in the wind, looking into the distance, the cool evening breeze in the mountains came slowly, blowing messy hair, quiet and serene.

"Grandpa Wen, why don't you speak, what does that poem mean. "Xiao obviously wants to break the posture of the casserole to ask the end.

Old man Wen touched the beard on his chin, took a puff of cigarette pouch, and then said with a smile: "Sijun Sijun, of course it is our young master, the girl sees the clouds in the sky as the appearance of the young master, in order to comfort the pain of lovesickness." ”

Xiao Wei pursed her lips, "What does the bad guy have to think, I've been to the barracks for four or five days, and I haven't even heard from him, and I don't know if there will be any trouble, so it's good to ask someone to bring a message." ”

"The barracks are important, how can you go in and out casually, if you want to come to the young master now, maybe you miss everyone. ”

"Hmph, the girl can see the young master when she looks at the clouds, so what can the young master look at to see the girl? The girl is so beautiful, at least she has to see, well, look at the flowers, look at the flowers to remember the girl's face, Grandpa Wen, you say, right?"

When Old Man Wen heard this, Lao Huai was pleased, lightly knocked the cigarette pouch and pot on the stone, and then said with a smile: "Yes, yes, what you said is so right, Xiao looks at the sky and the clouds at dusk, and thinks about you when you go, and you think about you when you sit." Enjoy the flowers in spring and watch the snow in winter, wake up and miss Qing, and dream also miss Qing. ”

Su Qinghuang naturally has no flowers to be seen, there is no peony and azalea in the barracks, at most there are two dog's tail grasses, which are also pulled off by the recruits when they are tired, hold it in their mouths, and squat to the side to watch the rest of the people keep churning up and down around the school field.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry up, look at the way you are grinding one by one, Zhang Dasheng, pout your ass to Lao Tzu, raise it so high, I want the archers on the opposite side to use your ass as a target." Cao Kaiquan shouted with saliva on the side, the face of the fool named Zhang Dasheng was red, and his pants were still hanging by the branches, Cao Kaiquan stepped forward and flew up with a kick, until he fell into the mud, lifted his pants, and continued to move forward.

"I've never seen such a stupid soldier. Xue Changyi was teaching his team to dance knives and guns on the side, and watching Su Qinghuang come over, Xue Changyi complained helplessly.

Su Qinghuang looked at these people with clumsy movements, and they were able to successfully pass these checkpoints on the school field, less than two percent, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "It always has to be done step by step, you can't become a fat person by eating in one breath, and it is not easy to train them to such a virtue in just a few days." ”

Xue Changyi sighed unhappily on his face, and said in a sullen voice: "You don't know that I went to the back to get money and food today, what did the main camp of Lushan say about us." A few old oilmen are yin and yang, changing their ways to squeeze us, saying that we are a group of waste of money and food, and we can't wait to take off our pants and surrender when we go to the battlefield, if I don't stop Lao Cao, his rough temperament almost started with others. ”

Su Qinghuang didn't get angry, patted him on the shoulder, and said calmly: "It's normal for people to look down on us, why care too much about other people's opinions, we live for ourselves, not for them, thinking about how others think of you all day long, and you can't suffocate to death." Look at it, you are not gold, our Lushan camp is a stinky shit in the eyes of others, all you and I can do is to make this shit something in it, not to mention the gold and silver hidden, at least, there must be one or two copper plates. ”

"It's just that when the shit hits someone else's face, and there is something in it, it hurts more than nothing to hit someone. ”

"Fortunately, he is now a soldier under us, how can he call his brother shit. Xue Changyi glanced at it and said with disgust, "It's that He Yang has been quite worry-free in the past two days, no matter what small actions he does behind his back, he still works hard in training." But to be honest, these people, including you and me, are really going to the battlefield, don't say more, a few can survive in a month. Those war horses neighing, those jingo fighting, I haven't heard it with my own ears, and I will never be able to empathize. ”

"Yes, that's what I'm worried about. Su Qinghuang also nodded, "I haven't experienced the real line of life and death, no matter how good the other practices are, they are all useless shows, and the battlefield is not piled up with human lives, thousands of drills are not as good as nine deaths in a real battle." ”

"But how can that kind of thing be practiced, this is not a battlefield. Xue Changyi spread his hands and said that he was helpless, "The recruits here don't look very fierce, in fact, they are all innocent, and most of them have never even killed pigs, otherwise, find two pigs for them to practice." ”

Su Qinghuang smiled, "I'll talk about it later, anyway, this month, they have to lay a solid foundation for me." Didn't you say that, in a group of ten, one of the group is not qualified, and the rest are jointly and severally responsible, starving together, seeing if they dare to play tricks, when the time comes, they will supervise each other without you and me. ”

As he was talking, there was a white dove hovering in the sky, landing on Su Qinghuang's shoulder, plump, burying his head in his wings, like a snowball, seeing Xue Changyi's greedy eyes.

"This pigeon is so fat that you might as well roast it and eat it at night. Xue Changyi drooled.

Su Qinghuang slapped his paw away and took off the news on the pigeon's leg, on which was a very delicate fly-headed small letter.

"The Li family is already in action, and they will go up by water in the near future, brother, Wang Fugui respects him. ”

Finally, the word is written like a blade.
