414 Find Hachi (1st Update)
At this point, it's almost over.
In the past and present lives, except for the accident at the staggered point of time when he was reborn, Gu Ci almost told the whole thing. After finishing speaking, I felt that the whole person had an indescribable relief.
The thing that weighs on my heart is like being taken by someone's hands, and you know that she will be properly placed. It's like a certainty after the dust has settled.
"Actually......" The girl looked at the light in the forest in front of her, and the moonlight was divided into fine patches, and she murmured softly, "Senior brother." Have you ever wondered...... Little Hachi...... Even if you weren't sent out to investigate, ......"
Shi Huan couldn't bear to say any more, she knew that Gu Ci understood what she meant.
Gu Ci really understood, in fact, he understood better than anyone else that even if Xiaoba was not sent out, he was only one of the 50,000 army whose martial arts were not outstanding, and it was very likely that he would not survive.
The army of 50,000 did not die at the hands of the enemy, but died under the blades of friendly troops, and those blades were quenched with poison, just like the man's vicious heart.
It is conceivable that a young man like Xiaoba, who has a dream of being a general and is accustomed to moving forward bravely, will most likely not survive in this vicious war.
Now...... He survived.
But it's like the walking dead.
He died in that battle, the moment he was slashed by the sword of his companions.
Just imagine, as a reconnaissance soldier, Xiao Hachi was overjoyed when he saw Dacheng soldiers, but perhaps, when that smile was revealed, the swords of friendly soldiers had already dazzled his eyes...... The boy's world collapsed.
Gu Ci was silent, and suddenly, he suddenly looked to the left, where there was a large forest, with lush branches and leaves, blocking most of the light, and there was nothing to see in the whole forest.
Can......
He suddenly flew forward, "Ah! An exclamation followed, short, sharp, and hoarse as if it were torn.
Shi Huan, who was left in place, even his heart trembled in that voice, and the voice ...... She hurried forward.
When I ran closer, I saw through the faint moonlight that Gu Ci was a person under his hand, and he couldn't see his face, but his unkempt and ragged appearance was indeed the same as what he saw at that time.
The wrists under the sleeves are surprisingly slender, and only a skeleton remains. The man was held by Gu Ci, and he didn't struggle, he hurriedly combed his weed-like hair, desperately trying to bury himself with that weed.
But just like the sleeves of the shirt that can't protect the wrists no matter how much you pull them, those hairs cover the left side of the face and expose the right face, and the forehead and chin are exposed.
At that moment, Shi Huan suddenly felt that he understood the young man in front of him...... The person he hid in Tibet, wanted to see but didn't dare to see was Gu Ci.
That was the most powerful hero in his dream of a young general, and perhaps it was also the reason why he came back here after all these twists and turns, he wanted to see Gu Ci, and he wanted to tell Gu Ci...... He is not a deserter.
He could have forgotten who he was, found a small town, married and had children, and started a very different life, just as his father had hoped, but he returned......
"Senior brother." Shi Huan stepped forward in two steps, pressed Gu Ci's hand, and shook his head lightly at Gu Ci's eyes, "I'll come." ”
She squatted down and stretched out her hand to the young man who was shrinking his neck and retreating, and the young man turned to flee in panic, but was held down by Gu Ci. Shi Huan stretched out his hand and combed his messy hair softly, as if he hadn't noticed his discomfort, and whispered, "My name is Shi Huan." Morning...... We've seen it, do you remember? ”
The boy tried to run away timidly, but he couldn't. cautiously raised his eyelids and glanced at Shi Huan, then quickly lowered his head, and nodded lightly. This girl, he had seen, when she sat next to the queen, there was something indescribable...... Dazzling.
So, he couldn't hold back and wanted to get closer...... Unexpectedly, the girl was very alert, and he subconsciously fled, almost in a panic......
"Your name is Hachi, right. My brother told me. "A pretty girl has always been able to lower a person's guard, even if the guard has been strengthened and heightened again and again, as impregnable as a city wall.
"Teacher, senior brother, ......" Xiaoba muttered, subconsciously repeating, but before the words fell, he was already startled by his hoarse and unpleasant voice, the whole person trembled, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Shi Huan, and pulled his hair again and again, as if it was his last weapon to maintain his dignity.
His voice was hoarse and sharp, like a blunt object pulling hard and slowly from the wooden leg, and he couldn't pronounce the words clearly, he probably hadn't spoken for too long, or someone had broken his throat...... Or both.
The sound of footsteps came from a distance, and Xiao Ba's ears moved slightly, like a frightened rabbit, curled up into a small ball under Gu Ci's hand.
The hand holding the knee came out of the sleeve, bruised and purple, with many small scratches, new wounds, old wounds, all over the arm.
"Hachi!" Lin Yuan rushed over in a hurry.
The young man tugged at the tattered clothes on his body, and tried hard to reach for his bare arms and ankles, Shi Huan didn't seem to see it, only helped him comb his messy hair, and smiled, "Yes." Gu Ci is my senior brother. You must know ...... Just, just ...... He. ”
Shi Huan pointed at Gu Thorn, who was as black as ink, and smiled playfully, his smile was relaxed and soothing, while quietly shaking his head at Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan took a step back and didn't speak again.
The boy timidly, like a snail cautiously and tentatively sticking out its tentacles, opened his mouth, but said nothing. He felt that his voice was so unpleasant that it would be a blasphemy to speak to such a good-looking girl.
Over the years, from Jiaozhou all the way to the imperial capital, I have seen a lot of good-looking girls, although they are not as good-looking as the girls in front of me. But...... Most of the good-looking girls fled in a hurry when they saw him, as if they were hiding from some epidemic, and some were kind-hearted, but after he spoke, they couldn't hold back anymore and left in shock.
Later, he knew...... He was unpopular, and gradually, he began to avoid the crowd, he rarely spoke anymore, pretending to be an ugly mute, and so on...... On the contrary, there were always some well-wishers who took pity on him.
Later, even he believed that he was a mute who faced ugliness.
But the girl in front of ...... Extra patient waiting for himself to speak, this is the first person in all these years to patiently talk to himself......
