Liu Ruohua came to his brother Liu Jianzhang's tent and probed his brain.

In the tent, I saw Liu Jianzhang sitting on a low couch facing the burning, flying charcoal fire, leaning on a pair of wooden crutches next to him, which is usually used to assist walking.

In the firelight, Liu Jianzhang's face looked even thinner, with sunken eye sockets, sunken cheeks, and a chin that exposed the shape of a bone, and the sallow skin mixed with the red light of the fire into an indescribable strange color.

Liu Ruohua swallowed his saliva and said in his heart: "This is three points like a person, seven points like a ghost!" My brother, what should I do? "The more I look at it, the more sour my heart becomes.

She lifted the corner of the cotton curtain, and the wind blew in, blowing the flames and shaking.

Liu Jianzhang noticed it, glanced at it, saw the person clearly, recovered his stunned and stunned appearance in the face of the firelight, and said softly: "Ruohua, come in, it's cold outside." "Maybe it's because I haven't spoken for a long time, my voice is soft, dumb, and old.

Liu Ruohua let out an "oh", got in, turned his back to Liu Jianzhang, and carefully tidied up the door curtain, for fear of penetrating the cold wind. After a long time, Liu Ruohua walked to his brother's side and pulled a small bench to sit down.

Liu Jianzhang said: "Let's roast the fire." ”

Liu Ruohua nodded repeatedly, raised his palm, and said, "It's warm, it's really warm." Squinting and smiling. Although she agreed to the matter in one go, she didn't really think of how to ask and persuade in her heart.

The brother and sister were relatively speechless, and the only sound in their ears was the sound of the burning charcoal fire.

After a while, Liu Ruohua felt that it was not a matter to be quiet all the time, and said in her heart: "Let's talk about some things first, and slowly get to the point." Secretly took a deep breath, kept calm, and said, "Brother, it's sunny today!" ”

Liu Jianzhang said: "Well, I know. ”

Liu Ruohua said: "Hey, you know? Did you go out and see it? ”

Liu Jianzhang said: "If your leg doesn't hurt, you know that there is no snow and the sky is clear." ”

Liu Ruohua said: "Uh, oh, that..." was annoyed, and said: "How can you talk about this!" Habitually pursed his lips and rolled his eyes.

Liu Jianzhang suddenly raised his head at this time and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, go around and around, aren't you afraid of fainting?" It's a blast to kill enemies! ”

Liu Ruohua said: "You are my brother, not an enemy, I must think a lot in my heart." ”

Liu Jianzhang nodded, coughed lightly, and said, "Brother is useless, I'm causing you trouble." ”

Liu Ruohua hurriedly said: "Brother, don't say that, you don't want to make me cry." ”

Liu Jianzhang said: "It's not good for my brother." ”

Liu Ruohua pulled the bench, rubbed beside Liu Jianzhang, and said, "Brother, I'm going back to Beijing, my father asked me to take you with me, what do you mean?" ”

Liu Jianzhang was speechless.

Liu Ruohua persuaded: "Brother, go back, don't waste it here, good people are also boiled down, let's go back to Beijing and think about ideas, there are so many famous doctors in the world, there is no way to do it." ”

Liu Jianzhang said: "But if the tendon is broken, it is broken, and it is impossible to continue it, Ruohua, what you said, my brother understands." ”

Liu Ruohua hurriedly said: "You don't understand! ”

Liu Jianzhang still said slowly: "I just don't want to go back, after returning to Beijing, I won't have a chance to come back, I have to die on the battlefield, I can't die at home." Ruohua, you are smarter than my brother, think of a way, let me go back to the battlefield again, and it is enough to kill another enemy. The big guys are afraid that I will lose my life and won't let me move, but who is afraid of losing his life as a soldier. ”

Liu Ruohua burst into tears.

Liu Jianzhang smiled: "It still makes me cry." The thin palm touched his chest, took out a white handkerchief, handed it to the girl, and said, "Clean, I haven't used it yet." ”

Liu Ruohua sobbed and said, "I don't dislike you." grabbed it, wiped his tears and blew his nose, his shoulders trembled, and said in a low voice: "Dad said, I can't fight over there, there is no war, brother, it's not that I won't take you to the battlefield, it's that there is no battlefield, so, you should go back to the capital with me, go home to recuperate, and live a good life, okay?" ”

Liu Jianzhang was stunned for a moment and said, "Can't fight?" His voice trembled slightly.

Liu Ruohua nodded, not daring to look at Liu Jianzhang's expression.

Liu Jianzhang was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's good that you can't fight, it's good, if you don't fight well, no one will die anymore, and the people won't have to suffer, okay, it's good, it's good, it's good..."

Liu Ruohua said with concern: "Brother, are you okay?" ”

Liu Jianzhang covered his face, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's a good thing, I'm happy!" ”

Liu Ruohua saw that Liu Jianzhang was full of emotions at this time, and said in his heart: "If you want to persuade you only today, if you miss it, you won't have a chance." He sniffled and said, "Brother, there are still many friends in the capital, they must be worried when they know that you are injured, for their sake, you have to go back, right, so that they can rest assured." If you really like the border pass, wait until your health is better, and then come back, it is not impossible to seek a stable official position, continue to serve in the army, and you can still protect the country and the people, and you don't necessarily have to lose your life, right? Even if you take a break at that time, it's okay to abandon martial arts and follow literature, it's all for the people, it's the same. ”
