Text Chapter 20: Ten Thousand Mounds
The winter sun is not so harsh and scorching, but mild. The warm sun shines on your body, caressing you like a mother's hand.
For steamed buns, this sunshine seems redundant.
The steamed bun stood there, quietly feeling everything around him. It was a world without sound and pitch black, Mantou wanted to shout, but it was difficult for her voice to make a sound, for her, what she had to do now was to wait for death.
A figure walked up to her, although the steamed bun was invisible, but she knew that it was His Royal Highness the Prince, he was familiar with the taste of the prince, she wanted to give the prince a blessing, but her legs were completely bent and her knees turned out. The arms were also twisted like creepers, and even the ribs in the chest were broken and pierced. The originally beautiful face, because of the fight with the red-robed woman, half of the face was corroded, revealing Sen Sen's white bones. Once a slim woman, now she looks like a zombie.
Shen Changgui just looked at the steamed bun blankly, he had a lot to say, but he didn't know how to speak.
Everyone knows that the steamed bun is just holding on to her breath, and at this moment, even if the gods are alive, it is difficult to save her life. Shen Changgui naturally knew it, but a woman who had been with each other for more than ten years, a woman who was originally as beautiful as a flower, and now she had become like this, he had no way to accept it. But I had to accept it.
The steamed bun grinned, and the smile on that face was creepy, but in Shen Changgui's opinion, this was the most beautiful smile in the world.
"Temple...... Temple...... Next, Yin ...... "The voice of the steamed bun was very hoarse, so subtle that it was almost inaudible, and Shen Changgui deliberately listened to every word of the steamed bun with his ears half-bent to his knees.
The steamed bun fell down and fell on Shen Changgui's body, and with it was the life of the steamed bun.
In the end, the steamed bun used all his strength to say only one sentence, and Shen Changgui could no longer hold back the despair in his heart. Steamed buns and steamed buns sacrificed their lives for him one after another, resolutely, without a trace of hesitation.
for they are dead soldiers. All the more because they knew that this man was worthy of them.
The bun left Shen Changgui with a smile at the end, and the steamed bun left a sentence.
"Your Highness, Yin, you have been derelict in your duties. ”
Shen Changgui is a person who seems to be heartless, but when a heartless person loses his heart, he is the craziest.
That roar was a drop of blood in my heart.
On this day, Shen Changgui made a vow.
When a man respects me, I respect him.
If someone deceives me an inch, I will slaughter him for the eighteenth generation.
Shen Changgui fainted in the snow, and the white ground was dyed with a few points of scarlet, like plum blossoms blooming in the snow in the cold winter. It's a pity that it is not a plum blossom, but the beauty engraved by two women with blood.
When Shen Changgui woke up, he was lying in the familiar Wolong Pavilion. Several maidservants saw that Shen Changgui had woken up, and hurriedly stepped forward to serve His Royal Highness the Prince. Shen Changgui motioned for everyone to retreat, these handmaidens did not dare to leave, and stood four or five steps away from Shen Changgui to watch Shen Changgui's every move.
"I told you to get out!"
Shen Changgui threw the pillow on the bed out of the window, and several maidservants hurriedly knelt down and pleaded with Shen Changgui while leaving in a hurry.
Shen Changgui quietly looked out the window, remembering that in the past, at this time, the buns would be used to grind ink for him, and the steamed buns on the side had already begun to lay paper. Shen Changgui only needs to pick up the pen and scold Fang Xuan, no matter how good or bad the words are written, those two women will always be regarded as treasures and treasure them, and when they meet Shen Changgui's proud work, they will definitely be framed and hung in Wolong Pavilion the next day. Over the years, there has been no interruption. More than 1,000 large and small paintings have been hung.
Things are people, not everything, and overnight, everything has changed.
"Do you want to check it out?"
A kind voice interrupted Shen Changgui's thoughts, and the old man in front of him had a kind face with a little sadness. He tried his best to hide his sorrow in front of his son.
Shen Changgui didn't speak, slowly got up and nodded at Shen Yanfu.
Shen Yanfu took Shen Changgui to a huge mountain forest, this hill is heavily guarded on weekdays, and whoever does not have Shen Yanfu's words will be cut first and then played, and it belongs to the absolute forbidden land of the palace.
The towering giant tree looks lifeless in winter, and there is not a single leaf on its bare branches. The whole hill was surrounded by a row of trees three or four feet high, and behind the trees were tombstones.
Shen Changgui was shocked by the scene in front of him, thousands of tombstones were placed in this mountain forest, each tombstone had a name on it, and a pot of Tusu wine was placed in front of each tombstone.
Without saying a word, the two walked to a corner, and there were two coffins in the corner. The two women lying inside are steamed buns and steamed buns.
Shen Changgui walked between the two coffins and looked at the two women quietly. The blood stains on his body have long been cleaned, and the shabby clothes have been replaced with new clothes of pure silk. Baozi was lying there, her cheeks were slightly red, she must have used good rouge, the messy green silk around her ears was also combed very neatly, and she had a hairpin on her head, coiling her long hair. The buns at this moment are as beautiful as fairies in the sky. And the steamed bun on the side, because half of the cheeks have long been corroded, only bones remain, so he put on a half-moon mask. The corroded fingers on the hands were also covered with long nails. The originally deformed body now looks like a playful woman, and it looks natural. It's a pity that the dry body and gray and sparse hair can't be concealed no matter what, and the steamed buns in the flower season look like an old woman.
Shen Changgui looked at the two women in the coffin who were already cold, he couldn't think of anything to say to the two women who died for themselves, and this time he didn't shed a single tear. Just looked at the two women quietly, as if heaven and earth were frozen at this moment.
"Son, you have to remember that no matter how strong you become and how powerful you are, you can never save everyone. There are those who die for you and die for you. All you can do is live up to their expectations and don't let them die in your way. ”
Shen Yanfu sighed, and Shen Changgui didn't interrupt him.
"There are 210,000 people lying here, all of whom were warriors who died on the battlefield before the establishment of Great Qin. Your father has no way to resurrect them, so he can only fulfill his wish for them and establish this Great Qin. This group of people on the battlefield, some with broken arms, some with short legs, and some tortured, they died on the road established by Daqin, and this road, I finished walking for them. Do you know that their belief is that they firmly believe that Daqin will definitely be established in my hands, so even if they know that there is a wife waiting at home, or the child will just call his father, they follow me to fight on the battlefield, and finally fail to go back. These 210,000 people may have broken arms and legs, but their faith has never been broken, and if their faith is broken, they will be a walking corpse, and there will be no regret if they are cut with a knife. You will eventually become the lord of a country, and many people will die on this road, Daddy and I will also die on this road, and Erdu will also die on this road, your road has just begun. You have to learn to face the life and death of every important person. If you want to become the dragon among the people, you must learn to withstand the cold in high places, endure loneliness, and see life and death. People living in this world, no matter how much reluctance and regret there are, they will eventually have to face the parting of life and death, and it is too difficult to let go, just put it in your heart. ”
The world is often unsatisfactory, but it is life that can be said to be the same.
Shen Changgui picked up the coffin boards on the ground alone, carefully covered the two coffin boards, patted them gently, smiled and muttered, and turned his head to look at his father.
"This road is really difficult to walk. ”
Shen Yanfu patted Shen Changgui on the shoulder.
"You are my son, no matter how difficult it is, you will eventually follow this path. ”
"Dad, do you know I'm afraid of one thing right now?"
"What?"
"I'm afraid you're getting old. ”
Shen Yanfu's body trembled.
"I used to be carefree, and I felt like I was okay with you. Now I know that life is so worthless, and if you say you die, you will die. I can't get used to it, I don't want to get used to it, if a person can ignore the death of the person closest to him, then is he still a human being?"
Shen Yanfu was silent, he knew that he couldn't let it go. In the past, those iron buddies died in his hegemony one by one, and he is the same as Shen Changgui now. It's easy to put down two words, but it's hard to do.
"Dad, what do you have to put down?"
Shen Yanfu stroked his beard. "When you learn to drink a jug of wine, not to savor it but to drink it all, that's to let go. ”
Shen Changgui closed his eyes and thought for a while, then turned around and left, not forgetting to sing two ballads in his mouth.
"Autumn leaves fall on thousands of homes again, and the year comes. Whose child wears armor, whose little lady sings and cries......"
Shen Yanfu looked at his son's back as he gradually moved away, and nodded with a wry smile.
A glass of wine, a few sips of pouring, the taste is the aftertaste, the aftertaste is life.
A glass of wine, drink it all, what you want is bold, and what you want is life.
