Volume 3 - Chapter 38 There is no way back in front of me

But Jia Zheng walked along a path towards the deserted temple in the woods, but it snowed a few days ago, but it was unusually slippery when it was warm these days, and the wet mud stuck to a new pair of shoes, and he couldn't shake it off.

I almost slipped to the ground several times, but fortunately, there were wild trees on the side of the road, and I slowly walked over with my support for the branches. Although it was ten o'clock in the middle of the day, because the deserted temple was hidden in the woods, it still looked gloomy and cold.

Jia Zheng walked to the front and saw that the temple door was in tatters, and even half of the statue of the Buddha on the altar had collapsed, but there was a couplet on the door.

Jia Zheng held on to the door frame, involuntarily and carefully recognized, although the couplet had long since peeled off and faded, it was still vaguely recognizable----

There was more than a hand behind him

Jia Zheng read these seven words, if he realized, he was stunned for a while, and he was busy looking at the other side, clearly writing: "There is no way in front of me and I want to turn back"

Jia Zheng was just like an electric shock, looking at it blankly, and involuntarily muttered: "There is no way in front of me and I want to turn back...... I want to go back......"

After being stunned for a long time, he suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here, and hurriedly shouted: "Shiqian...... Shi Qian ......"

shouted twice, and no one answered in the deserted temple, Jia Zheng looked inside, only to see that the spider silk in the deserted temple was entangled, dusty, and it really didn't look like it was inhabited, but I didn't like to give up like this, and stepped in carefully, suddenly, "meow", a black thing jumped out, and almost didn't knock Jia Zheng to the ground.

When Jia Zheng looked again, it was a big black wild cat, and when he saw people coming, he ran out, and the wild cat didn't seem to be particularly afraid of people, and the hair on his whole body stood up and raised his tail. Staring at Jia Zheng.

"Shiqian......" Jia Zheng called again, but no one answered, and was about to turn around and go out, but turned around. I saw the man in black with a hat. Right behind him.

"You want to scare me to death?" Jia Zheng held on to the door frame. grumbled.

"Afraid of me?" The man took off his hat, straightened his messy head slightly, and said after a while, "It's still the way I am now, it's not as good as before, and you don't even like it?" ”

"No," Jia Zheng sighed, "It's just that we're all old." \\\\\\ head is white......"

Yes, Zhen Shiqian's hat was not combed up, but it was scattered and spread, looking very unruly, but there were a few more wisps of white.

"yes...... Old...... Zheng is also old," Zhen Shiqian sighed. I think that when they first returned, they were only seventeen or eighteen years old, and they were very suave and suave, but now they have goosebumps.

"How could you?" Jia Zheng looked around and asked for a while, "How did you get out?" ”

"My Zhen family has been operating in Jiangnan for many years, and I always have some back-ups. I spent money on a stand-in many years ago. I didn't think it would really come in handy. Zhen Shiqian said lightly.

Seeing Jia Zheng's face full of doubts, Zhen Shiqian sighed again: "Today's situation. I had already expected that since there was such a rumor in my ancestors, and our families have been sticking to each other for that rumor...... Nineteen years ago, Mrs. Zun Xiu told me that she gave birth to a son and was born with a jade, and I knew that I couldn't hide from it. ”

"How did you get to the capital?" Jia Zheng listened, feeling very uncomfortable, and asked in a hurry to change the topic.

"I came with the prisoner car, and on the way I found an opportunity to kill my greedy son who was afraid of death, and the stand-in also wanted to kill something, but he couldn't find a chance to do it again." Zhen Shiqian said lightly, now that his center of the earth has not waved, after watching his old mother and wife die, and killing love with his own hands, the rest is afraid that it will be difficult to move his heart.

"You're looking for me today, but what's the matter?" Jia Zheng only felt sour in his heart, and he was extremely sad.

"I want to see Ling Lang, you can arrange it for me. ^^^^" Zhen Shiqian said coldly.

Jia Zheng was suddenly startled, hurriedly took a step back, and asked defensively, "What are you going to do?" ”

"You know, why ask?" Zhen Shiqian sneered.

"No......" Jia Zheng turned around and flatly refused, "I won't let you see him." ”

"You want not to accept the covenant? Could it be that hundreds of people in my Zhen family died in vain? Zhen Shiqian suddenly grabbed Jia Zheng's collar and said viciously, "You are still enjoying glory and wealth, have you ever thought about it, where do I have a place?" ”

Jia Zheng didn't speak, he couldn't say anything, for the sake of Jia Fu...... For the sake of Baoyu, he must not let Zhen Shiqian see him. This man is extremely dangerous.

"Politics...... You see, there is no way back. Zhen Shiqian let go of Jia Zheng and said lightly, "If you want to retreat, sooner or later you will follow in the footsteps of the Zhen family, do you want to watch your eighty-year-old mother die without a place to be buried, do you want to watch your wife die in front of you, do you want to watch your daughter be humiliated by a group of scoundrels?" Do you want to go to the Great Punishment Department and be punished without dignity? ”

"I don't want to, but I don't allow you to see Baoyu, I have my own opinions." Jia Zheng said angrily, "I have been an official for many years, how to be measured, naturally I don't need you to teach me, and besides, you usually act too viciously, those two girls of the Lin family, if you don't start, as for getting to such a point?" ”

"Speaking of which, you're complaining about me?" Zhen Shiqian said angrily, "The two girls of the Lin family, Lin Ruhai's own one, and the other one, do you know the origin?" ”

"How do I know, didn't I say it was for health maintenance?" Jia Zheng asked puzzled.

"None of us are Lin Ruhai's opponents" Zhen Shiqian smiled coldly, "I shouldn't have killed him if I knew it, I'd rather keep it, anyway, with the Jiangnan case, he can't escape the involvement." ”

"Don't talk about this, tell me, what is the origin of the imperial concubine?" Jia Zheng asked puzzledly, Lin Ruhai is dead, but no one can break the situation he has laid out.

"I don't know," Zhen Shiqian shook his head and said, "It's because I don't know, so it's suspicious." ”

Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and said after a while: "If you don't know, don't guess......"

"Anyway, I want to see Ling Gong" Zhen Shiqian said again, "I don't care about the messy things in your family, if you don't let me see the main master, I can't make something out of it, I'm a person now, I come and go without worry, I can't compare to your octogenarian mother, you have a golden boudoir weak daughter, and there are countless beautiful wives and concubines around you." ”

"You ......" Jia Zheng was almost so angry that he couldn't get up in one breath, remembering Mrs. Wang's words in the morning, he suddenly said angrily, "What a beautiful wife and concubine, what a good thing you did"

Zhen Shiqian was stunned, and suddenly touched Jia Zheng's face and said, "Don't be so angry, okay?" ”

"You ......" Jia Zheng slapped his hand away abruptly and said angrily, "Our beards are all white, and you are still like this?" ”

Zhen Shiqian laughed, suddenly remembered the absurd things between the young man and Jia Zheng, and his heart ached, thinking about the lingering relationship with the Wang sisters...... His wife and children died tragically, and tears fell suddenly.

"Politics, we have no way back, I can't keep my old mother, wife and children, I can't look at you one last time, and I can't ......" Speaking of this, Zhen Shiqian couldn't go on.

When Jia Zheng heard this, he was also gloomy, and put all the resentment he had just now into the clouds, bowed his head and said, "I understand, it's just ...... I don't want you to see Baoyu. ”

"That's it......" Zhen Shiqian slowly walked into the deserted temple and said, "You go, you didn't come to this place." ”

Jia Zheng was stunned, looked at Zhen Shiqian's lonely figure in a daze, and said after a while: "Where did you settle in the capital?" Or ......"

"No need, I don't want to bother you......" Zhen Shiqian said lightly, with his words, it is worth more than anything.

"You go," Zhen Shiqian urged him to leave quickly.

Jia Zheng turned around and walked a few steps, turned around, and looked at Zhen Shiqian standing in the deserted temple, thinking that the once rich brother had actually fallen to such an end, and it was even more sad---

In front of the door, there are two rows of vague handwriting......

There was more than a hand behind him, and there was no way to turn back

There is indeed no way in front of you, but where is the way back?

Zhen Shiqian is not wrong, the rumor of the ancestors, the alliance of the four families, has long been a point of no return......

Coming out of the woods, the little guy was busy coming over to help, and just walked a few steps, but saw a pale old man, dressed as a Taoist priest, singing in his mouth----

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only the fame can't be forgotten, where the ancient and modern will be, and the barren mound is gone.

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only gold and silver can't forget, and in the end they only hate to gather much, and when they reach a long time, their eyes are closed.

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only ......

When the old man saw Jia Zheng, he suddenly shouted, "Old man, please stay."

Jia Zheng was stunned, turned his head puzzled, and looked at the old man, but now that the old man had a bit of goodness, he had seen it somewhere in a trance, but he was dusty, white as snow, and he really couldn't recognize it.

"Jia is not fake, white jade is a horse for gold...... The old gentleman is the Jia housekeeper in the prosperous land? The old man looked at Jia Zheng carefully and asked.

Jia Zheng was infinitely suspicious in his heart, this Jia is not fake, Bai Yu is a horse for gold, but it is just a rural fake outside, he has naturally heard of some, but it is just ...... Why was the old man able to pronounce his name?

"Master Zheng doesn't know me anymore?" The old man asked tremblingly, "Yes, the old man has abandoned Hongchen for many years, but I don't know if I abandoned Hongchen or Hongchen abandoned me...... It's a pity, I still can't see through it, what are Baba doing in the capital? ”

I don't know who it is, but let's see the next breakdown
