Chapter 116: Accidental Death

The old woman slowly said to the woman: "Feng Wuxian fought with the sect leader, and both of them were injured in the end, which allowed Yu Zhentu to escape. But the aftershock diagram is an integral part of the Master's plan. As soon as the sect leader released the wind and appeared in the northwest, he sent the flesh Buddha to Yashan, and once the aftershocks showed signs of leaving Yashan, he immediately arrested him back, but he didn't expect Yashan to be closed, except for the second generation of disciples who went to the imperial capital to participate in the national religious election, the others did not go down the mountain at all. ”

"The aftershock diagram is also in the stepfather's plan? Is there anything special about him? ”

"This sect leader didn't say it, it's just that the "Ghost Sutra" that Yu Zhentu has learned since he was a child may be very different from ordinary martial arts masters." The old woman said uncertainly

"This is the first time I've heard of it, what does the mother-in-law mean?"

"The disciples of the Heavenly Machine don't move for the time being, in case the news comes back. Zhou Li didn't care about it, just like the last time in the East China Sea, he came to the northwest through the other sects of the Garan Temple, and misunderstood the sect leader's plan. Now they can't make a difference. When they're all back, just find an opportunity and tell them to get out. The old woman did not hurry to say her own suggestions

The woman thought for a while, nodded and said, "According to what my mother-in-law said, it's really cheap for them." ”

The black gauze woman and the old woman were talking, and a white shadow suddenly flew in the night sky, and the white shadow circled around the heads of the two twice, and the old woman saw that she stretched out her arm, and the white shadow landed steadily on the old woman's arm. It turned out to be a snow-white harrier.

The woman took the secret letter from the harrier's leg, opened it and looked at it, then looked puzzled

Seeing the woman's expression, the old woman said to the woman, "Girl, what did you say in the secret letter?" ”

The woman handed her the note: "Mother-in-law, read it for yourself." ”

The old woman took it and looked at it carefully: "What does the sect leader mean by this?" Did the girl make an agreement with the Master? ”

The woman shook her head: "I can't figure it out. ”

The old woman thought for a while before she said, "Since the sect leader intended, the girl will do it." ”

The woman didn't want to do it, but the sect leader had an order, and she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to nod in the end.

And at this moment, there was a sound like a landslide from the far south, and the sound covered the entire Yongzhou City. Immediately afterwards, the entire Yongzhou City began to shake slightly, as if an earthquake was coming. The woman and the old woman looked at each other

"The mountain of immortality has collapsed, and the righteous father's plot has really come to pass. This is a big help in the future. The woman seemed to know what was happening, and when she saw the loud noise, she was not surprised, but rejoiced

At the same time, Chu Mu, Ye Tingcheng, and Eldest Sun Wufang from the Welcome Building walked out and looked at the south where the voice came

"It's a voice from the south, it's so loud, and it causes the earth to shake a little, what's going on? The second and sixth children must not have an accident. ”

And the northwest camp further west did not hear the movement from Bulao Mountain at this time.

…………

Du Jie looked at the old man who walked in front of him, and then he remembered what he had forgotten, and he had forgotten a big living person. Fortunately, the old man is thick-skinned, and he doesn't see Du Jie. After asking others about Du Jie's residence, he walked in.

Du Jie hurriedly let him in: "Old man, you're awake, it's okay." ”

The old man smiled and said, "Thanks to the blessing of the master, everything is fine." After the old man woke up, he found something to eat at the gang's house, the barracks were in a mess just now, and I didn't know what was going on. ”

Du Jie had some inexplicable affection for this old man who met in Pingshui, and when he saw that he was fine, he nodded: "Old man, it's okay if you're fine, I'll have a lot of things to do when I get to the barracks, but don't worry, tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to find your son." ”

Seeing that Du Jie hadn't looked at his own business, the old man said with some emotion: "Don't worry, don't worry, Gongzi is a kind person, he won't lie to me, an old man, and I have nothing to repay you, I ...... I...... I'll kowtow to Childe. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Du Jie's reaction, he knelt on the ground and knocked his head three times.

Du Jie was startled when he saw him kneeling, and hurriedly tried to pull him up, but he didn't pull him for a long time. Du Jie couldn't help it, he knelt in front of him, he knocked one, and Du Jie returned one. Bumped into the back, Du Jie was a little dizzy, held his head and said, "Old man, hurry up, hurry up." ”

When the old man saw him like this, he had no choice but to get up, and Du Jie saw that the old man finally stopped being a kowtow worm. I also stood up myself.

The old man grabbed Du Jie's hand, tears welled up in his eyes, he shook his head and said, "On the way from the Central Plains to here, I haven't met a single kind-hearted person. It's either a villain who bullies men and women, or a treacherous shopkeeper. I didn't expect that when I came to this northwest camp, I could still dream of a kind person like Gongzi. Old man, I ...... Old man, I ......"

Du Jie smiled, knowing that this honest old farmer couldn't say anything, he nodded: "Old man, I know, I know." Find your son tomorrow, and I will ask Marshal Peng to arrange a job for you in the barracks. Life in the Northwest Camp is not easy, but entering the Northwest Camp is a family, and you will not be running for a livelihood in the future. ”

When the old man heard Du Jie's words, he finally couldn't help but cry. Du Jie didn't expect the old man to be so old and so genuine. Du Jie was just about to persuade a few words, but the cold old man stopped crying and asked Du Jie

"Childe, I don't know how old you are this year, have you got married?" ”

Du Jie was stunned by his question. I didn't know what he meant, so I subconsciously said, "Me? I haven't married yet, I'm nineteen. ”

The old man rolled his eyelids and muttered to himself: "You are nineteen this year, Cui'er is twenty-two this year, and the female junior holds the gold brick." It's good, it's good. ”

Du Jie didn't understand: "Old man, what are you talking about?" ”

The old man was a little twisted and distracted. The more the old man is like this, the more strange Du Jie becomes.

In the end, the old man said: "When I saw Gongzi today, I didn't tell the truth to Gongzi, in fact, I still have a girl waiting for me in Yongzhou City, you know, this army is in chaos, my old man is taking a girl to run to the camp, and it doesn't look good, so I simply put her in Yongzhou." I thought about finding a good family for her to marry in Yongzhou. I didn't want to meet Childe. Childe, I know that you have a noble status, and in the future, the old man and his son will not be able to take care of my daughter in the camp, so you can take her in, don't ask to be a wife, be a maid and a concubine, and listen to Childe. ”

Du Jie thought that the old man was saying something, and when he heard that he had a daughter who wanted to marry him, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, the old man can't help it, I ...... I ......, I don't have the idea of marrying a wife and having children now, the old man is ......" Du Jie said stumbling, no one has told him about marrying a wife and having children since he was a child, and when the old man said this, Du Jie's face was blushing beyond measure.

The old man saw that Du Jie was not angry, but his face was red, and he continued to smile: "Childe, don't be busy refusing, my daughter doesn't say that she is as beautiful as a flower, but how many descendants in ten miles and eight towns have invited matchmakers to come over, if it weren't for her mother's delay, she would have been able to give birth to three or four big fat boys now." ”

Du Jie saw that the old man was getting more and more energetic, and said a little anxiously: "Old man, this is not a question of whether you are beautiful or not, since ancient times, the marriage contract has been the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker." My grandfather is still in Jiangnan, this matter is not child's play, old man, Hugh will mention this matter again. ”

The old man saw that Du Jie kept refusing, so he stopped talking about it, and the two chatted for a while, and he left Du Jie's big tent.

When he walked back, he had words in his mouth: "Zhang Chaozong, why did you find such an elm pimple." ”

On the second day, Du Jie took the old man to the Chinese army's tent early in the morning, Peng Xian also got up early, and saw Du Jie with an old man behind him, a little strange, Du Jie went up with a smile and told him about what happened on the road yesterday. Peng Xianzuo nodded and said to the old man: "What year did your son become a soldier, where is his hometown at home, and what is his big name?" How old is it? ”

The old man saw such a big official for the first time, and his face obviously showed a nervous look: "My hometown Jizhou Mansion, my son's name is Zhao Youli, he was twenty-one when he was a soldier, and now he is twenty-seven." What did Peng Xianzuo ask, what did the old man answer, he didn't have the strength of the hippie smile when he was with Du Jie at all, Peng Xianzuo nodded after hearing it, and asked a small guy next to him to say a few words. The little servant heard the order and took the old man out of the camp.

There are 150,000 people in the northwest camp, and it will take some time to find a specific person, Peng Xianzuo beckoned Du Jie to accompany him for breakfast, and while chatting, the national teacher walked in from outside.

Peng Xianzuo saw that the national teacher came to him so early, and he was slightly puzzled. The national teacher was very polite: "I've seen Marshal Peng, and Xiao Dugong is also there, just right." I came to say goodbye unconsciously, I still have the emperor's order, and I will get up and go back to the imperial capital today. The three generals of the Shenji Battalion stayed here, waiting for the Holy Decree. ”

Du Jie was stunned for a moment, heard that the national teacher was leaving, and remembered Peng Xianzuo's words yesterday, did this national teacher really add to his blockage? Is this what the little emperor means?

Peng Xianzuo nodded, both of them are smart people, and they don't need to be thorough.

"The national teacher is leaving? Before the Divine Decree reaches the Northwest, our Northwest Battalion will not move, and once it arrives, I will act in accordance with the Divine Decree. ”

"That's very good."

The three of them chatted for a while, and the national teacher was about to get up to say goodbye, when he heard the sound of howling and crying from far and near outside.

Immediately afterwards, the little guy who took the old man out hurriedly ran to Peng Xianzuo and whispered a few words in his ear, Peng Xianzuo was slightly surprised after hearing it

"Dead? When and why weren't the families notified? Could it be that someone is making an empty declaration of military salaries? ”

As soon as the little guy was about to speak, the old man walked in from outside, and when he saw Du Jie, his crying was even more miserable

"Childe! Son! My son is gone, my son is gone! They said my son was gone half a year ago. My son is gone, and I can't live anymore......" The old man cried hoarsely, and his sadness made everyone look a little sideways.

Seven or eight out of ten young people here have been forcibly conscripted, and they haven't seen their parents for many years. When Du Jie saw what the old man said, he looked at Xiao Wu and Peng Xianzuo again, and the latter nodded at him.
