Chapter 12: Big Brother Fights Tiger
Zhan Hu and I walked into the village, he was the idol of the village, everyone took the initiative to greet him when they saw him, he also responded one by one, he sent his men home, and took me to his house, where he lived in the innermost few very simple thatched huts, surrounded by a tattered fence.
I laughed and said, "Your house should be repaired, or the wind won't blow you away with the house." ”
He didn't care about my ridicule, my words seemed to arouse him to write about his thoughts, he whispered: "In August and autumn, the high wind roared, rolling up the triple thatch on my house, the grass flew across the river and spread the suburbs, the high one hung the long forest tops, and the low one drifted to the sinking pond pass." I used to live a life of fine clothes and fine food, but now I can see through everything, and this kind of anti-simple and true life is what I pursue. ”
I patted him on the shoulder, "It seems that you also have a lot of sad past, can you tell me? I am willing to listen to you, and it will definitely be much better to say it." ”
He looked at me, his eyes showed a confidant look, and he said arrogantly: "Okay, it's really uncomfortable for me to keep it in my heart, I'll tell you today, let's go, let's go into the house, and talk while drinking." ”
He was not married, he lived alone, and he didn't know where he brought the jar wine, and took out some simple side dishes and some game, "Let's get some food, brother, and I'll let them get you something good tomorrow." ”
I hurriedly said, "That's already good." ”
He took out two large glasses and said, "Come, let's drink." ”
I was embarrassed and said, "I've never drunk before, so why don't you drink it yourself." ”
"It's not okay not to drink, wine is a good thing, we men have been bitter enough for a lifetime, don't smoke (dry tobacco), don't drink and live is not as good as a dog. Come on, drink. ”
It's hard to resist the hospitality, and I also want to taste what it's like to drink, "Okay, I'll drink with you today." I picked up the wine jar and filled both of our glasses, and drank it all of my own, "I respect my eldest brother, and I do it first." ”
He looked very happy and drank it in one gulp, "Okay, happy." ”
When I drank the wine, I felt a little spicy at first, but there was a pure fragrance, and it was not very difficult to drink, but when I got to the stomach, it burned like fire, and I felt that my whole stomach was burning, and my face was red, and it took a long time to recover.
Zhan Hu smiled and said, "You better drink it slowly, this wine is not small." You will definitely drink well in the future, and I will not be able to drink a glass of wine. ”
I blushed and said, "Oh, that's how the wine is." "I'm going to eat the vegetables.
We ate for a while, and I asked him, "Big brother, why do you want to be a bandit, you should be able to stand there with your kung fu." ”
Zhan Hu sighed and said, "Brother, you don't know, I used to be as high-spirited as you in the past, I was once known as the genius of the younger generation of the Xiuda Kingdom, and when I was 20 years old, I had already reached the level of the Sky Knight, and at that time I was a symbol of honor in my family, and I was the target sought after by everyone." At this point, he paused and took another long sip of wine.
I interjected, "And what about later?"
He continued: "Later, I joined the army, and because of my outstanding performance, I won everyone's admiration, and soon I climbed to the position that everyone coveted. You should know the ace troops of the Shuda Kingdom. ”
"Is it the Earth Dragon Legion?" I heard Teacher Di say that if on the plains, an Earth Dragon Legion can easily kill any opponent, the Earth Dragon has a very strong magical defense, unless it encounters very high-level magic, it can't hurt it and its knights at all, in the Eastern Continent, only the Xiuda Kingdom produces Earth Dragons, but the number is also quite rare.
"Yes, you're right, I was the commander of one of the three Earth Dragon Legions at that time. ”
Ahh "Then you must have been very proud, what about your earth dragon? I have heard that once the earth dragon has confessed its lordship, it will always follow its master. ”
Zhan Hu poured himself a few glasses of wine in a row, and said bitterly: "My earth dragon is called Zhan, and it is one of the strongest earth dragons in the Earth Dragon Legion, and the main reason why I am like this now is because of it, in a training session, because of my mistakes, Xiao Zhan died, and it was sacrificed to save me." He clutched at his hair in pain.
I grabbed his hand and persuaded, "Don't be like this, it's all in the past, what's the use of you regretting it now, you have to cheer up." ”
Maybe my persuasion had a certain effect, he gradually calmed down, we continued to chat while drinking, he said that since Xiao Zhan died, he never forgave himself, everyone blamed him, all said that it was because of his reasons that caused the death of the precious earth dragon, and also removed him from the post of army commander, he began to learn to drink during that time, every day is drunk and dreams to death, every day to look at other people's cold eyes, he couldn't stand it, so he ran out. Wandering around aimlessly, when he came here, he met the bandits who were forced to live, that is, those people in the village now, and of course he cleaned them up with the kung fu of the war tiger, and then, because he sympathized with the lives of the bandits, and at the same time he wanted to find a nest himself, so he stayed and became the head of the bandits.
It turned out that his experience was so tortuous, I was deeply moved, I took a sip of wine, and said boldly: "Big, big brother, I appreciate your personality very much, how about we become brothers." "My tongue is already big, and now the wine is already sweet, and there are two war tigers shaking in my eyes.
Zhan Hu was almost drunk, and said in a daze: "Okay, good brother, my brother recognizes you as a brother, if you have anything to tell your brother in the future, my brother will definitely help you settle it." ”
I put my arm around his broad shoulders, shook my cup and said, "Okay, for the sake of our brotherhood, come, dry this cup." "That's how you have a cup and I've got a cup, and in the end we both poured it all.
My head hurts, and in the morning, as soon as I wake up, I feel dizzy, and it hurts so much.
"Brother, you're awake. The voice of the war tiger came.
"Oh, big brother, why does my head hurt so much. ”
"Hehe, you drank so much yesterday and it didn't hurt. Zhan Hu said with a smile.
"Then why are you alright?" I asked, confused.
"I drink every day, I've long since gotten used to it, brother, is it true that you said you wanted to bow to me last night?"
I sobered up and wrote, "Of course, it's my honor to have such a big brother as you." ”
Zhan Hu said excitedly: "Okay, I will recognize you as a younger brother." Get up, wash your face, eat something, and your head won't hurt. ”
Later, it was with the help of the War Tiger that the Child of Light found true love and became an indelible great figure in history.
