After Wu and the dart bureau played the dart division to help the Jinju state army rescue the besieged people, the Yamen of the city guard of the Yuancheng City, who originally wanted to send troops to the compound, originally wanted to follow the example of the capital and build a well-guarded city in the city that did not lose the imperial city. However, after learning the news, Song Zhiwen, the general of Jinzhou, dispelled the plan to guard the yamen in one sentence.

And if Yuancheng can't hold on, how many people can a compound shelter?

These days, most of the carts in the dart bureau have been requisitioned, and the dart master is also trapped in the dart board and has nothing to do, some want to earn some scattered silver and two flowers, and go to get a lot of silver money for those big families or merchants who store grain, plus the monthly money issued by the dart board, many dart masters have a lot more money on hand.

Wei Changpan and Liu Ziyi divided a pound of fried chestnuts and the two parted ways, he walked alone on the street of Yuancheng, asked people the road to the compound of Wuhe Dart Bureau, and then walked slowly.

He hadn't walked so slowly for a long time, and even though he was one of the few times in the northern steppes that he was not bumpy on the horse, he was half-asleep and half-awake, and at the slightest wind and grass he had to get up and draw his sword to wake up. It's been a long time like this, and at this time, I don't know what to do when I slow down and walk leisurely, and I don't feel comfortable putting my hands and feet anywhere.

Finally arrived at the main gate of the Wuhe Dart Bureau compound, and the two dart masters who were guarding the door in broad daylight saw that it was Wei Changpan and felt a little familiar, but they couldn't remember who it was for a while. However, Wei Changpan found out that the Wuhe dart game entry and exit waist card was indeed genuine, so he let him in first.

"I remember! Isn't this the person who caused Lao Gu's son to collapse on the bed?"

"It's the person who stepped back from Zhang Dart's head in the early months, and he may have some martial arts skills, but if he is bringing people into battle, how can he help when he is not old enough. ”

"Xiao Gu is paralyzed, he is wasted at a good age, I heard that Dr. Ni wanted to try to save his two legs, but he was born to let Xiao Gu use the knife by himself. ”

"It's a pity that this guy is still walking like a nobody, Xiao Gu is a good person, and he has to sit and lie down for the rest of his life, but I'm afraid that it will be a little sad to be next to him. ”

"The world is unpredictable...."

With his back against the wall of a room in the compound, the discussion of the two dart masters was all in Wei Changpan's ears, and at first they were all adding fuel and vinegar to the truth, and then they made up many stories that made him cry and laugh, such as that he was the illegitimate son of the head of the dart and so on.

Gu Sheng was paralyzed, this was also the situation he had expected, after all, he had been trampled by the horse's hooves all over his body, and it would be unbelievable if he could still stand up.

This gossip of others Wei Changpan is now listening to it as a joke, but he just wants to see what outrageous things can be arranged in the minds of these idlers.

At such an age, he still doesn't understand many, many things, but only one thing can be called transparent.

The reason why life is not satisfactory in the world is that everything is valued by others, and everything is like this, how can we act.

Yu Wu and the path in the Dart Bureau compound He was half-familiar, but he still did it to find people and ask for directions, and it didn't take long to ask where Gu Sheng was recuperating.

He pushed open the courtyard door, and the rusted copper bolt creaked, and a human voice came from the small courtyard, "Dad, why did you come back so early today?"

The courtyard is spacious and bright, and the firewood and coal in the corner are piled up as high as a hill, obviously the people in the dart game think that Gu Sheng, Gu Shengyang, and his son can't do heavy work, and even a slightly larger piece of chopping firewood is chopped in the corner of the courtyard, Wei Changpan opened the lid of the vegetable cellar and looked down, and the cellar was full of vegetables.

Three rooms, the father and son have such a place to live, I have to say that Wu and the dart bureau can be called to take care of their own dart master in all aspects, Wei Changpan saw Wu He dart bureau disabled and old dart master life is also leisurely, I hope the father and son are also satisfied.

Hesitantly pushing open the door, the interior of the house was poorly furnished, and a few pieces of furniture were scattered in the empty room, which made the whole room look unpopular.

"Dad, close the door quickly, the cold air will pour in and the heating will be good for a while. ”

A big red satin futon squirmed and complained, Wei Changpan listened to the familiar voice and got angry, his heart became hot, and he took two steps forward.

"This door is always open and it takes a lot more to burn charcoal in the house, and I don't listen to you how many times I have told you, this loser old man..."

"Now it's not convenient to get up, so I won't come to meet you, pull up a stool and sit on the side, my father has put the stove next to it, and the whole room is a warm place. Gu Sheng saw Wei Changpan's sunken cheeks, and said softly, "Brother Wei, I have worked hard for you to go north to the grassland this time." ”

"Isn't this coming back?" Wei Changpan took out a small oil paper bag from his arms, "The fried chestnuts that have just been baked have been held in your arms for you to keep them cold, so I peeled them for you and ate them while they were hot." ”

A small oil paper bag of fried chestnuts was not long left, and only a pile of empty shells at the foot of the bed remained, Gu Sheng burped like a tiger roaring and a dragon groaned, and was satisfied with patting his belly with the arm that could still move, "After being besieged by barbarians, and selling fried chestnuts in the city, this is the first time to eat it in winter." ”

Then there was silence, and the only thing in the room was the crackling of the fire.

"What's so interesting on the steppe? The barbarians saw the horses and horsemen, but when it came to the scenery, all they saw was the blood of the people around them and in front of them. Gu Sheng muttered, and then looked at Wei Changpan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Tell me about the scenery on the grassland, Brother Wei?"

"What the grassland in the north does is a secret thing, so it's not good to tell you casually. Wei Changpan scratched the back of his head.

On the grassland, they are either fleeing on horseback or waiting to flee on horseback all day long, even if there is a view, they have no time to see it, and even if they see it, no one will sigh. At that time, all they thought about every day was how far they had traveled today, whether they could follow them with the strength of the barbarian horses, and where the next meal would be after eating all the surplus food.

can't even fill the belly, no matter what kind of merry man he is, he can't sing the poems and songs of the wind and snow.

"That's right, now that the barbarians are wreaking havoc in Jinzhou, how can you go to the grassland to enjoy the scenery?" Gu Sheng said apologetically, "It's stupid to be in this house, and I don't know when I can be taken out for a walk by my father, saying that our Dayao has people who are proficient in machines and can make people sit on their own wheels and move cars, and I don't know if there are such capable people in Jinzhou..."

Wei Changpan couldn't find the words to deal with it, and finally went around, still going around to the topic he didn't want to mention, what he was most afraid of was that Gu Shenghui would collapse because of this.

Gu Sheng sensed his embarrassment, and the arm that could still move hammered him twice, and then looked at him with four eyes, and said solemnly, "Whether it is to save the besieged people or change the position of the charge, it is something that I Gu Sheng is willing to do, what is the matter with you? If you really want to say that there is something, you and Uncle Seven should make a decision immediately, otherwise my life may not be able to be saved, it is just two legs, my life is still there, and it is okay to say anything." “

"But you are also a martial arts practitioner, so you should know it..."

Wei Changpan knew what it meant for a martial artist to have two broken legs, and the inspirational stories about one-armed and one-legged martial arts masters on the rivers and lakes were widely circulated, but if it was said that there was no half-body that could practice martial arts along the way, there was no one. Not to mention Gu Sheng's mediocre martial arts talent....

Being able to rank among the third-story martial arts at this age, Wei Changpan experienced a life-and-death struggle that was unique among martial artists of the same age, and as for the medicinal herbs used on him, they became the icing on the cake. If he is half-paralyzed at this moment, he can only be accompanied by the bed from now on, and he will probably inevitably be depressed.

"'All the way to martial arts, everyone in the world can get up and do it' This is not the words of which of our martial arts predecessors in Da Yao?" Gu Sheng looked disdainful and pursed his lips, "It's just two legs, I, Gu Sheng, still have two arms and a good head, how can I not practice martial arts?" Or do you Wei Changpan look down on our old Gu family's species?"

Gu Sheng's words were exquisite, Wei Changpan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and couldn't help but have some jokes in his heart, it was obvious that he was a person who could still not be discouraged after suffering such a heavy blow, why should he pity him.

Some people are still a complete person even if they lack arms and legs, and some people still keep a single hair on their heads well

"It's a big deal not to practice the leg method, concentrate on fist and palm kung fu, although it is lame on one leg, maybe you can walk out of a sunny avenue at that time. Although Wei Changpan's insight on the way to martial arts is limited, it is no longer within Gu Sheng's reach, "It will not be a mistake to promote one's strengths and avoid one's own shortcomings." ”

These are the words he found in his stomach, and he can't say any more words he has to say.

"You can do it. Wei Changpan raised his hand and wanted to pat Gu Sheng's body, but he couldn't find a good place after looking for a long time, so he simply rubbed his head and finished, "There are always people in the world who will do it, even if the predecessors didn't have it, then it's up to you Gu Sheng to do it." ”

"I borrowed Brother Wei's auspicious words. Gu Sheng grinned, "When the time comes, when I become famous, you come to Wuhe Dart Bureau, and I invite you to eat in the best restaurant in Jinju!"

"It's a deal. ”

....

Outside the door of the house, Gu Shengyang, who was carrying a lot of things in his hands, stood silently for an unknown number of hours, listening to the words of the two young people in the house, and the old tears were full of tears.
