Chapter 63: Fate
Why is fate so unfair?
In the blood-drenched vision, Gui Li, who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing desperately, raised his head and looked ahead in a trance.
Blood ran down her forehead and into the corners of her eyes, but she still kept her eyes wide open as she looked at her brother who was pressed to the ground by two stout soldiers.
The kowtow speed just now made her a little dizzy, and before she knew it, her face was covered with blood but she didn't feel pain, because her brother was much more injured than her.
Guichen's entire head was slammed against the gravel ground by a large palm, and another soldier behind him smashed his heart with his elbow, and his brother had to endure the pain of his chest exploding every time he struggled.
Even so, the boy rubbed the ground desperately, revealing his hateful eyes, and looked at the richly made boots next to his face.
Gui Li's eyes rolled mechanically with his brother's gaze, looking at the middle-aged man who was watching all this indifferently.
Their...... Father.
Facing the eyes of his children, the man in brocade clothes just stood there indifferently, his gaze fell on Gui Li, looking at her bleeding forehead and narrowing his eyes slightly.
"You ......"
"Return! Leave me alone! ”
Just when Guichang's eyes fell on his daughter, a trace of fear flashed in Guichen's eyes, and he lay on the ground and yelled.
"Isn't it the Camp of the Dead? I'll just go! But I have the conditions, you don't want to touch a single hair of my sister! ”
"Don't be so reluctant," the middle-aged man glanced at him, "this is the honor I have so hard invited for you, all for the sake of our return home." ”
Just then, a cold female voice sounded behind him.
"Then why don't you let Guirong go?"
Guichang turned his head and looked at his wife who was held by his four mothers-in-law.
Mu looked at him blankly, but he didn't wait for an answer from the man she had grown up with.
"Of course, it's because our family is going to inherit the title, sister."
A sweet female voice sounded from behind Guichang, and Chu Ji walked out from behind him, looking at Mu Shi with a smile, "Guichen sacrificed his life for the country, and someone must inherit this title of home." ”
"I see." Mu Shi looked at Chu Ji's smiling eyes and said quietly, "It seems that you have a good plan for the master again." ”
Chu Ji looked at Mu Shi, who was still unmessed with his hair although he was being pulled by the four mothers-in-law, a trace of hatred briefly crossed his eyes, but the next moment he still smiled sweetly and spoke.
"I can't say that, how can the concubine be compared to the noble and noble sister of the blue heart," Chu Ji said with a smile, "The strategy sister who can make the master rise to the top must be able to think of it, but my sister has never been willing to contribute to the master." ”
Chu Ji stretched her voice to cover her mouth and smiled, "My sister is stupid, but I secretly think that only this heart is wholeheartedly for the master and returning home, which is slightly better than my sister." ”
"You bad guy!"
At this moment, Chu Ji's laughter paused, and a stone suddenly brushed her cheek with a slight tilt!
"Li'er!" Muhammad cried out, his pupils narrowing.
The smile on Chu Ji's face cooled, and she looked at the little girl who was kneeling on the ground holding a stone and panting.
"Sir!"
Guichang's eyes also cooled, and with a gesture of his hand, a soldier who was originally pressing Guichen suddenly flashed behind Gui Li, and stretched out his hand to grab her shoulder.
"Let go of me!" Guili struggled violently, and suddenly scratched a long trail of blood on the soldier's hand.
The soldier looked at Guichang with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.
Guichang frowned, looked at the soldier who asked him for instructions, and nodded.
With a click, the soldier unsheathed his sword.
"Guichang! If you dare to touch my daughter, I will never let you go in my life! Muhammad struggled violently, but the mother-in-law behind her was dragging her limbs and even grabbing her hair.
Looking at the despair that had been surging in Mu Shi's eyes, Chu Ji's eyes finally swelled with a look of joy.
"Let go of my sister!" Guichen struggled to the death, but a fierce light flashed in the eyes of the soldier who pounded his back and struck him in the chest, "Be honest! ”
The corners of Guichen's mouth oozed blood, but he still looked at his sister beside him.
The cold light flickered, but the soldier's sword down his shoulder did not stop.
"My person is measured, she should also learn some rules," Guichang shouted to his wife and children only lightly, "Otherwise, marrying in the future will only shame us when we return home." ”
"I have promised her to Lord Wang Shaofu, who has lost his wife not long ago, and Lord Wang's family will not want such an unruly noblewoman."
Guichen's pupils shrank when he was pressed to the ground, Shaofu is one of the three princes and nine kings, and the tax in charge of the mountains and seas and ponds that are exclusively used by the royal family is a famous fat difference, but the current former Qin Shaofu is nearly forty years old, and even the youngest son is older than Guili!
"Guichang! Aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder! Muhammad shouted bitterly.
Thunder and thunder?
Looking at his excited mother and brother, Gui Li was very calm for some reason.
She was talking about her, but she didn't feel sad at all.
She looked up, the heavy sword coming towards her was also very slow in her vision, I don't know how much it hurts to cut this thing on her body, will it hurt from her father's whip?
She didn't know.
She couldn't feel anything anymore.
Why?
Why was she, her brother and her mother treated like this?
People in the village often say that there must be something hateful about a poor person, and that a person is to blame for suffering and being hated by others.
Is she being treated like this because she has done bad things?
Also, she's not a good boy. Such an end is also deserved.
But in the memory of the return, my mother was always full of kindness to the world, and she was kind to everyone in this world, but why, the woman with a heart like a femme fatale was smiling beside her father, and her mother was crying there?
The elder brother was to be sent to the death camp, a place that was originally reserved for death row prisoners, where he died like an ant to prove his father's loyalty to the country.
She is going to marry a man who is twenty-seven years older than her, and her father must have gained a lot of benefits in exchange for this.
Is this the meaning of her and her brother's birth?
Looking at the sword light that was getting closer and closer to her fingertips, Guili finally understood why she didn't feel pain.
There is no greater mourning than death. She's had enough of it all.
"Mother," Gui Li said quietly, "you are wrong. ”
Heartbroken, Muhammad suddenly turned his head.
"Mother, you have been kind all your life, but in the end you only bring harm to your own children," Gui Li Jingjing said. "So you're wrong."
Gui Chang's brows frowned even tighter, and he waved his hand fiercely to look at the soldiers behind him, "Do it!" ”
"Li'er!" Muhammad's pupils shrank, and just as the blade of the sword went towards Gui Li's shoulder, Gui Li actually flashed to his side and met his neck!
"Sister!" Guichen's eyes were cracked.
The sword light descended on her, and the girl spread her arms.
"God is blind!" Gui Li bit his lip and screamed, "Kindness is useless at all!" ”
The sheer despair overwhelmed her, so let's end it all.
"Who said that?"
And at this moment, another woman's voice sounded.
A figure stepped in and grabbed the blade of the sword.
The world fell silent for a moment, and in endless despair, the eyes widened to look at the familiar slender back of the girl.
Zheng groaned, her blood running down the blade but she didn't care.
She smiled and turned back to herself.
"Nonsense."
