Chapter 41: Before the War (2)

Chapter 41: Before the War (2)

In the western suburbs of the imperial capital, Yongling Manor is quiet at night.

In a room, Xie Ning'er was looking at the magic machine that had already finished broadcasting, and behind her was the old housekeeper Gu, who looked at Xie Ning'er's eyes full of worry, and stopped talking several times, and then turned into a few quiet sighs.

He looked at his watch, and it had been hours, and the young lady had just stood there motionless, not knowing what she was thinking.

For a long time, Xie Ning'er, who had been silent, stretched out her hand to turn off the magic machine, but she spoke softly.

Qi Er Shuang'er's elemental enlightenment was temporarily suspended, and he ordered the demon war retainers belonging to the family to immediately go north to participate in the big war. The mistress of the family is still fighting for the empire on the front line, how can the Xie family in the extreme north stand by and watch in the battle of life and death. ”

Her voice was full of certainty.

……

Old housekeeper Gu was stunned, and his expression began to be full of pride.

The loud voice should be in the middle, but I heard the young lady in front of me continue to say softly: "Uncle Gu, you go and lead them." If...... There was disharmony, and the only task of all the retainers of the Xie clan in the extreme north was changed to cover the retreat of the young lady at all costs! ”

"Yes!"

Old Butler Gu replied loudly again.

"Send two men to prepare ships in the port of Tetsu, once ...... Immediately send Qi Er Shuang'er and the old lady to the Southern Continent, over there are loyal allies of the empire, they are over there, with such a noble status, such a genius soul descendant, presumably no one dares to bully them. ”

Xie Ning'er muttered again.

"Okay, miss, then you ......"

Old housekeeper Gu replied respectfully, and then, he seemed to remember something, and asked in a low voice, but he seemed a little speechless.

……

"After the Xie family has a future, they can already comfort their ancestors. As for me...... I wanted to study the Barbarian Pattern. But that's too difficult, it's completely different from our civilization system, and it's slow to make a breakthrough......"

Xie Ning'er's expression suddenly darkened.

"I ...... I'm tired......"

She murmured softly, tired.

"Miss, don't you want to ......" Old Housekeeper Gu's face suddenly changed greatly.

"Needless to say, do it. I will go north with the Demon War retainers to accompany my sister-in-law. I'm also a demon war. ”

Xie Ning'er said softly again.

"No way!"

Old Butler Gu's expression suddenly became intense, and he shouted almost reflexively.

……

"Why not?"

Xie Ning'er looked at him suspiciously and sharply: "This is the last battle for the survival of the empire...... The teachers and students of the major colleges and universities in the empire, as long as they are still or have been in the appropriate age range, as long as it is a magic war, they have all resolutely given up their studies. Embarked on a train heading north to reinforce the front line. Why can't I turn around? Have you forgotten the Xie family motto? And the Xie clan in the extreme north only has the imperial lord who died in battle! ”

Old housekeeper Gu was already in tears.

He wanted to speak several times, but he didn't seem to know how to express it, he thought about it and thought, but his eyes suddenly lit up: "Miss, I know all this, this empire is indeed very dangerous, and we are no better than ordinary people." Knowing the dangers - that is where our right and responsibility lie. The more we know, the more we have to stand up. The higher the status, the greater the responsibility. This is my Xie family motto, and it is also the most noble part of my great Chinese civilization and tradition! ”

He muttered.

……

Forthwith. His face began to grow even more solemn.

"But you have to think about the little young master and little miss, they are still too young to do without your care and teaching-little young master and little miss Although they already have the glorious soul of my Extreme North Xie Clan, aren't you afraid that they will grow up. Or will he become a gentleman, or will he become a person who uses his power to do mischief? ”

"The Xie family has never been afraid of sacrifice, but what the Xie family has passed down from generation to generation is not just blood and sacrifice. Power and glory! We must also leave the seeds! Know what the real Xie Seed is! The seed that will pass on the glory of the family from generation to generation! And the glory of my Xie family must also be taught by the elders of the Xie family by words and deeds, so that it can be passed on from generation to generation! ”

"Little Master and Little Miss can't become scum who have strength but don't know what the glory of the Xie family is, they naturally have a bright future, strength and glory in the future, but they must grow into towering trees that know blood and sacrifice and inherit the glory of my Huanghuang family! Otherwise, our ancestors and ancestors will curse us, saying that we will bury the last hope of our family! ”

He said in a flurry.

……

Xie Ning'er was stunned, and she seemed to be a little overwhelmed.

Old Housekeeper Gu was moved when he saw this, and he said even more.

"And the old lady, in case...... How could she bear the pain of her son, daughter, and daughter-in-law leaving her at the same time? Hou Ye's sacrifice back then had made the old lady's heart die, and her body was getting worse and worse. ”

"Now, she is full of thoughts and only pinned on a few of you, and now it's finally getting better, isn't it...... Miss, the old lady will not be able to stand it! And once the old lady can't hold up such a huge blow and leaves, who else can the little master and the little lady learn? Who else can be counted on to take care of it? ”

He couldn't help but admonish.

"I ......"

Xie Ning'er's expression finally became hesitant.

"Let me think about it again...... Uncle Gu, let's go and prepare other things first......"

She whispered.

Old housekeeper Gu looked at the girl in front of him with pity, he bowed silently and walked out slowly.

He closed the door lightly and thought about it, but hurriedly walked down to the second floor where the Zhao family lived.

……

Not long after, the second floor was already sounding the sound of a gentle conversation between Zhao and Old Butler Gu.

"...... so"

She asked softly.

"Well...... The young lady should agree, and she won't think about going to ......," Old Butler Gu replied in a low voice.

Zhao nodded slowly, and a hint of blush suddenly flashed on her withered face.

"Fathers and fathers...... Please forgive my daughter-in-law for being so selfish......"

She muttered.

"They still think I don't know, Xiao Ning'er still wants to hide it from me...... But my Ning'er, the meat that fell from my stomach, how could I not know...... Guessed and guessed ......"

She kept muttering, tears slowly rolling down her face that had begun to be full of sorrow again.

……

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

The two little people who were playing with each other in her arms suddenly looked up in unison and asked.

"Nothing, nothing." Zhao was taken aback. But he kept wiping the tears from his face.

"Grandma's eyes are filled with sand, Qi'er Shuang'er will help me blow it." She looked at the two little people and smiled slightly.

When the two villains heard this, they immediately competed with each other and raised their cheeks, and they blew violently into their grandmother's eyes.

When they finished blowing the sand in her eyes with serious faces, Zhao hugged them and kissed them again and again.

"What a ......"

She couldn't stop muttering.

……

"Grandma, don't be upset, okay...... My brother and I already knew my father and mother, and as soon as they came back, we would call them and make them happy. ”

The little girl in her arms seemed to be a little ice and snow smart, knowing that her grandmother didn't have sand in her eyes. I saw that she thought about it, but took out a photo from her pocket and held it up in front of Zhao's eyes. said with a little smug face.

Zhao's eyes froze, and she silently looked at the photo.

It seems that Xie Ning was taken before being ordered to go to the far north, and in the camera, the young man is dressed in a tall general's uniform, and his face is even more smug with some slyness that seems to have begun to exist after the awakening of the soul vein.

"Look, this one is the father in the beautiful clothes, and the mother is the one in the beautiful dress, and the frost remembers their appearance."

The little girl said in a milky voice. is even more like a treasure, using her chubby little fingers from the two young men and women who are sweetly snuggled and smiling slightly in the photo.

……

"I know, I know, I know what my sister doesn't know, my father doesn't wear pretty clothes. It's a general's uniform. His father is Imperial Yongwu, the youngest general in the Empire! When Qi'er grows up, she will also be a general. ”

The little boy immediately shouted unconvinced, but he winked at the little girl who was in the other arm of his grandmother opposite him.

The two little ones began to look at each other angrily.

"Good...... Good...... Good my two good sweethearts. What a ......."

Zhao looked at the two little ones lovingly, and she kept wiping the tears that gushed out of her again: "At that time, your father and mother must be very happy." Proud of you. ”

……

"But when will they be back?"

The little boy who was suddenly full of smugness when he heard the words asked in a milky voice in confusion.

Zhao's expression flickered.

"They are coming back soon, and they are now fighting against those hateful barbarian devil invaders for the sake of the motherland and for you. When the battle was over, they returned. ”

She muttered.

She looked at the heroic young man who was proudly hugging the girl in the photo, and suddenly there were tears again.

"See, my son...... Your children are no worse than you, and they will be like you in the future...... ...... same as you."

Zhao stretched out a few trembling fingers and carefully stroked the young man's heroic face in the photo.

"You're underground, but you're going to be fine...... You must also bless your child's mother, let her not be hurt, let her retire as soon as possible, and let her come back to take care of your Qi'er and Shuang'er. Bless your sister too, let her stop thinking about going to the front, let her spend more time with me, I can't live without her......"

She muttered, tears streaming down her face.

……

What a few people downstairs didn't know was that the girl upstairs also had the same photo in front of her at this time.

She stared at the young man in the photograph infatuatedly, leaning limply against the wall, sitting weakly on the ground.

Tears flowed into a river, and they had long been spread everywhere on the girl's extremely delicate and immaculate face.

"Brother......

She muttered under her breath.

"Why are you ...... Are you willing to leave us ruthlessly......"

"I miss you so much...... I'm so tired...... What the hell am I going to do......"

"If you're there...... The Glory of the Hsieh ...... How good have you inherited...... Why ......"

"You would have had a future as bright as the stars, but how can you ...... Suddenly he fell to the earth......"

The girl choked and muttered, and she began to weep deeply.

The sound of choking seemed to be never-ending in the dark night, echoing through the empty room.

……

What everyone didn't know was that in the deep dark night, in the distant sky, an unusually bright star in the bright sky was watching them.

It flickered and flashed, shining brightly, slyly, proudly, gently.

And...... Crossing the distant starry sky, piercing the dimensional barrier, the coming ......

Light. (To be continued......)
