Gu Wen's hands trembled, looking at this change, his face and hands were covered with rhubarb blood, this was to protect his friend with his life. But he only glanced at him one last time, and fell straight into his arms, Gu Wen was grief-stricken, "Rhubarb! ”

Xue Rou heard his wail, so she glanced back, and was startled by the bloodstains all over the ground, and quickly slashed at the people opposite, looking forward to ending the battle quickly and going over to take a look.

Yuan Junfeng also saw it, his heart jumped, and he wanted to go back and kill the man, but the gang saw that they couldn't succeed, and ran away together, although they were all injured, none of them died. But on their side, a rhubarb died. The rhubarb that connects their relationship.

It can be said that the gains outweigh the losses.

Rhubarb's head crossed a sword, the sword that killed him and the sword that proved his loyalty. Gu Wen was in pain, reached out to hug its neck, tears and snot trickled down his cheeks and into his neck, sliding deep into his clothes.

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng put away the knife and walked to him, looking at his painful appearance, but they didn't know how to comfort him. Maybe there is no way to comfort, maybe there is no need for comfort. There is no way to be relieved.

Dead his best friend.

Gu Wen leaned on the ground and cried like this, he was tired of crying, and finally wiped his tears and stood up, his face was covered with tears, sweat, and blood, and he wiped it with his dirty hands, which looked very funny.

But no matter who looks at it, he can see the pain and innocence under this funny, Gu Wen reached out and wiped his face, but his face became more and more flowery, and his voice trembled a little, "Miss Xue, Yuan Gongzi, thank you." If it weren't for you, I might have died tonight. It's getting late, let's talk about something tomorrow, now you can go back and rest. ”

Xue Rou wanted to say something, but Yuan Junfeng held down her shoulder and shook her head, Xue Rou sighed and went back to the room with Yuan Junfeng.

The smell of blood all over the body, the two of them cleaned up before sitting together again, Yuan Junfeng pressed Xue Rou's head and gently dropped a kiss on her forehead, "Good, Rou'er, I'm here." Don't blame yourself too much about tonight. ”

Xue Rou ironed in her heart, Yuan Junfeng really saw that she was guilty of not saving Rhubarb, and seeing Gu Wen so sad was really empathetic.

Yuan Junfeng reached out to hold her hand, "Sleep, Rou'er, I'll guard you tonight." Don't be afraid. ”

Xue Rou was lying on the bed, Yuan Junfeng pulled the quilt for her, and looked like she was going to lean on the side of the bed and squint for a night, but he was also afraid. I'm afraid that Xue Rou will have nightmares.

Xue Rou looked at his considerate appearance, reached out to take his hand, and patted the vacant space next to him, "Although it's quite narrow." But I can sleep. Come on. ”

Yuan Junfeng met her bright and gentle eyes, lay down beside her, reached out to take the person into his arms, and patted her back gently, like a child coaxing nightmares. Xue Rou gradually fell asleep.

And Gu Wen, who got up silently, looked at the blood stains on the ground, and finally pulled out the sword with all his strength, splashing blood again, and still carrying heat. Rhubarb hadn't been dead for long, as if he had fallen asleep.

Gu Wen threw the sword on the ground with a crisp sound. Rhubarb was already a big dog, in fact, it was much heavier than Gu Wen, but he still picked it up tremblingly, walked forward with a vague foot, and suddenly stumbled with his left foot and fell down with his right foot, he fell on Rhubarb again, and finally couldn't help crying.

The crying was terrible at night, but he also knew that others were resting, so he kept suppressing his voice and silently shed tears only at Rhubarb.

He remembered that the dog had been given to him by his mother. At that time, he was still an illegitimate child that everyone shouted and beaten, and the grandmother who took care of him was sent by the government and looked down on him. Because it is an outer room, I am afraid that the family will find fault, so I live very remotely, and there is no one nearby, only him and his mother. His mother's health is not good, and he is often in bed, and no one plays with him.

The little Gu Wen opened a pair of big ignorant eyes, and he had already initially sensed the malice of this world. Later, his mother found out about his loneliness, and one day, after Gu Wen woke up, he saw his mother sitting in front of his bed, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a puppy lying in the small box in front of him. The mother picked it up, and the eyes of the child and the dog met, and they were both clear and curious.

My mother smiled and said, "My mother is not in good shape, so I can't play with you often." This dog can play with you, and you will be good friends in the future. ”

Later, my mother died.

Later, the dog was gone.

Why?! Why, exactly?! He pretended to be stupid and humiliating since he was a child, and when he grew up, he came to this remote place alone, how many times he swore a poisonous oath, and he didn't fight for anything, but they still had to work hard to force each other!

If this is the price of concession, then Gu Wen has decided, from now on he will not only no longer back down, but also be a sharp sword, pressing step by step!

If he can't save his life by retreating, then he will rely on his own efforts to stand in the capital, and no one will dare to bully him again!

In the middle of the rainy night, Gu Wen had already made up his mind in his heart.

The sound of rain in the second half of the night dripped down the eaves, but it made Xue Rou and Yuan Jun sleep well all night. Sometimes, it's better to sleep when it's raining.

I woke up very early the next day, Xue Rou poked Yuan Junfeng's cheek, "Wake up, get up." ”

Yuan Junfeng grabbed her wrist and took the person into his arms, his voice hoarse, "Sleep a little longer." ”

Xue Rou poked him in the chest, "It's time to get up." Later, when I went back to Master's house, I could sleep as much as I wanted, but you forgot? Xue Rou sighed, "Gu Wen suffered such a big blow last night, and I don't know what to do today." Let's go see him, I'm afraid he won't be able to think about it himself. We still have to persuade him. ”

Yuan Junfeng didn't pretend to sleep again, after the two of them got up and washed, they found that the room was quiet, too, so many people came in last night, these little guys were hiding, I'm afraid they weren't so loyal, the things in the room were swept away a lot, and they should have run away.

Yuan Junfeng looked very disgusted, he hated this kind of disloyal person the most in his life, but he was helpless, everyone was gone, and he didn't know where he went, so he wouldn't be caught and scolded again. The top priority is to see Gu Wen's current condition.

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng found Gu Wen in the ancestral hall, he was kneeling on the ground, and Rhubarb's body was placed on the platform, and the other tablets were all thrown on the ground, Xue Rou picked one up and found that it was the ancestor of the Gu family.

There is also a tablet in front of Rhubarb's corpse, but the carving is crooked and bloodstained, it should have been carved by Gu Wen himself.

His back was straight on his knees, probably knowing that someone was behind him, and said to himself, "He said very little to me, but he told me before that the ancestor of the Gu family used to worship the prime minister, relying on a loyalty." Although the younger generations are declining, they still have to regard themselves in the spirit of their ancestors. ”

He sneered, "What bullshit ancestors? I, a person who can't even enter the genealogy, can I be considered a junior? It's just an illegitimate child, and my ancestors won't recognize me. ”

He stood up, "Why bother? ”

Xue Rou saw that the face he turned around had been washed away from the stains, and he was calm, but his eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, "Forget it." Isn't it bullying me that I have no power and no power? Then I'm going to show them if I need that little bit of stuff in their house. Besides, now it's time for me to have to fight. If I don't fight, maybe I'll end up like Rhubarb, or maybe I'll die worse than this. Rhubarb's corpse still has something I can contain, so after I die, I'm afraid it will be a roll of mats and thrown into a mass grave. ”

Xue Rou couldn't bear it in her heart, "Young Master Gu..."

Gu Wen waved his hand, "Miss Xue, you don't need to persuade me, I know it in my heart." If you don't become strong, you can't even protect yourself, let alone anything else. ”

He laughed again, "I used to think that Ah Yun at least treated me sincerely, you see." What about people? It's not that he ran away last night, his family has gambling debts, I'm afraid people have already changed. In the past, it was okay to steal something from me, but now, you can look at what is left in this house. ”

"Forget it, since you're here too, let's bury the rhubarb first, and I'll talk about what happens later."

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng found a trailer and put Rhubarb's body behind and pulled it away. And Gu Wen walked in front with a hoe, he was originally a scholar and had no strength at all. But he still insisted on digging a grave for Rhubarb alone. From dawn to noon, it was finally dug up.

The three of them buried the rhubarb, and Gu Wen filled the soil again and again. Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng also held three handfuls of soil, which was regarded as their fate with rhubarb.

The paper money was also burned, although I don't know if this dog will be used, Gu Wen said in front of the grave, "Rhubarb, if there is reincarnation, don't be a dog in the next life." Being a dog is more pitiful than being a human, and I hope you have a choice. ”

"Let's go, Miss Xue, Yuan Gongzi."

At this time, it was not early, and several people were hungry for a day, Xue Rou quickly went to the kitchen to cook a meal, although this group of subordinates took away valuable things, but the vegetables were still left, so she made a few dishes.

Gu Wen didn't eat a few bites, and he didn't have much appetite. Xue Rou and Yuan Jun ate a lot, Gu Wen couldn't hold it, and they had to hold it too.

After eating, Gu Wen said, "Miss Xue, Yuan Gongzi, you can go back to the house." I'm going to Beijing tomorrow morning to see if I can fight with them, it's not safe here. It's not that I don't keep you, but you also see that this place is ruined, and who knows if they will come again. You're either going to leave tonight or you're coming with me tomorrow, right? What do you think? ”

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng also thought so in their hearts, Rhubarb had already been buried, and it was meaningless for them to stay here any longer.

Xue Rou said, "Let's go with you tomorrow, and then we will split the road again." Otherwise, we will leave tonight, and I really don't worry about you. ”

In case that group of people came again, Gu Wen would not be able to stand it like this.

Gu Wen smiled palely, "Okay." Then let's go together tomorrow. ”
