Chapter 118: The Old Man Dies
Seeing Du Jie say this, the old man shook his head slightly: "Needless to say, I know what the son meant, but it's a pity that my daughter's life is shallow, she doesn't have this life, and she can't ask for it." ”
When the woman heard Du Jie chatting with her father, she didn't know what they were talking about at first, but after listening to it a few ears, she realized that her father wanted to marry herself to the young man in front of her, so she was so ashamed that she buried her head low. Although his head was buried, his eyes carefully looked at Du Jie with his peripheral vision.
The old man also felt a little embarrassed to say anything to Du Jie now, so he simply got up and walked forward to see the dead man who was killed by lightning just now. Du Jie was also embarrassed to persuade the woman, and when he saw the old man walking forward, he didn't know how to persuade him. He stood there and blushed. It's the first time I've encountered such an embarrassing thing since I was born.
When the old man approached the man, he leaned down and looked closely. The flowers he wore before his life turned into charred after being struck by lightning. It's all pitch black, and you can't distinguish the appearance of your facial features. The old man circled around him twice, and suddenly said "Huh".
"Childe, this person doesn't seem to be dead yet, you see that his chest is still undulating, is he still alive?" After saying that, he reached out and was about to touch it.
Du Jie's eyes swept to the man's chest, and he saw that there seemed to be a living creature moving on the man's chest. It is said that in the face of the 'lightning guidance method', it is impossible for there to be a person who has not died after receiving a complete blow, what is the matter with this person? Du Jie also planned to go and see what was going on. At that moment, a scorpion's tail hook poked out of the man's clothes.
Du Jie saw it and shouted, "Don't move! ”
By the time he said this, it was too late. A three-inch-long poisonous scorpion sprang out from the man's chest, and the scorpion barbed the old man's arm in an instant. The old man fell to the side with a sigh.
Du Jie took three steps and made two steps, then swiped his fingers with his left hand, and a flying rainbow shot at the poisonous scorpion, and the flying rainbow hit the poisonous scorpion solidly. But what Du Jie didn't expect was that the poisonous scorpion just flipped back a few times, and then he didn't know well, so he quickly fled to the side.
This poisonous scorpion can stand its own finger flying rainbow, and it is definitely not ordinary. But Du Jie couldn't care about it at this time.
Du Jie came to the old man's side, and saw that the old man was already convulsive at this time, Du Jie secretly said badly, and immediately took out a bottle of medicine from his body, this medicine was left to himself when the medicine Bodhi left, according to him, the world is ever-changing, but no matter what kind of poison, this bottle of medicine can be solved.
After pouring a pill, the old man's dark complexion was slightly better, and the venomous ferocity of this poisonous scorpion was unprecedented. If it's a little bit later, I can't say that this old man really can't be saved.
The old man took the medicine, and after a while, his throat churned, and then a mouthful of black-purple dirty blood spat out. As this mouthful of dirty blood spit out, the old man's whole body seemed to wilt. He opened his eyes vigorously, and only then did he see Du Jie in front of him clearly.
Du Jie held his head and hurriedly asked him, "Old man, are you okay, how do you feel?" ”
The old man coughed vigorously, as if he wanted to vomit up the blood, he shook his head, and beckoned his daughter to come over. Just now, the woman was shy to hear that her father was going to make the decision to let her marry Du Jie, but in an instant, she was heavily poisoned. She ran to the old man with rain and pulled his hand: "Daddy, don't scare me, how are you, Daddy." ”
The old man touched her face with some pity, and stumbled and said, "Cui'er, your eldest brother...... Your eldest brother is gone, half a year ago. We don't need to go to the Northwest Camp. Daddy can't walk anymore, you lived in my house. From now on, no one in this world will be gone. Cui'er, Daddy is sorry for you. ”
The woman cried more and more, and when she saw her father, she didn't see her eldest brother, and her heart tightened. But confirming this news from her father's mouth made her really unable to accept it, and now her father's life and death are unpredictable. The only two relatives in the day were gone, which made the woman suddenly lose hope of life.
The old man shook Du Jie with his hand: "Childe...... I'm afraid I can't do it, Childe saved me a few times, but my life is like this, I deserve to die in this northwest. After I die, I don't ask my son to protect my daughter, I just ask her to be a girl by your side, if my son really doesn't want to, arrange a personal marriage for her, my son is very gracious, my old man will pay back the grass in the next life. ”
When Du Jie saw the old man's reaction, he didn't know why his medicine didn't work, and it stands to reason that the antidote to the medicine Bodhi stayed could not solve the poison on the old man's body. Seeing the old man like this, Du Jie took out the medicine bottle from his arms again. The old man shook his head
"Childe, it's not that your medicine can't work, the old man has been poisoned before, Lang Zhong said, the poison is in the internal organs. It's okay to keep it, but if you pull it out, you will die in an instant. It's all my life, I admit it. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he grabbed his daughter's hand again: "Dad doesn't want to die, none of you have a family, Dad...... Daddy didn't want to die like that. Daddy, I'm sorry...... Yes...... Yes! ”
As the old man spoke, his state became more and more wrong, and he screamed twice uncomfortably, and his voice slowly became extremely weak. He finally looked at Du Jie.
Du Jie knew that the old man was not worried about his daughter, and was waiting for Du Jie to agree to his request. When Du Jie saw the old man like this, he felt very uncomfortable. He was originally in a state of confusion, but when he saw the old man's eyes, he didn't know what to do, so he nodded silently and agreed.
When the old man saw Du Jie nodding, the corners of his mouth wanted to show a smile, but before he could laugh, he began to twitch uncontrollably, his legs ran and pedaled, and he died in front of Du Jie after a while.
Du Jie silently looked at the old man's body, although he had known him for less than two days, but within these two days, he lost his beloved son, and now he died in the northwest. Du Jie also said this morning that he would retire and send him to the end of his life, but he didn't expect that these words were still in his ears, but now he is dead.
Creation makes people.
When the woman saw her father die like this, she was suddenly stimulated and passed out.
When the woman woke up again, she was in the middle of the carriage, and she slowed down for a long time before she remembered what had happened. Jumping out of the carriage, Du Jie stood in front of him, and in front of him was a new grave bag.
Du Jie didn't look back and said, "Woke up?" I don't know what your father's name is. ”
The woman's eyes were swollen and red, and she couldn't understand when she saw the grave bag in front of her, so she knelt on the ground and said, "My father's name is Zhao Shoude." ”
Du Jie nodded, took the wooden board beside him in his hand, and carved a few words of Zhao Shoude into it with his fingers. Then he took the plank to the woman: "This is your father's tombstone." ”
The woman took it from Du Jie's hand and saw the words engraved by Du Jie, and finally she took out her finger to donate blood, and then wrote her name on it one by one. After the woman finished writing, Du Jie took it and saw that it read: "Beloved daughter Su Xiaodie." ”
Du Jie asked strangely, "Your name is Su Xiaodie?" Isn't your father's surname Zhao? Didn't he call you Cui'er? ”
The woman nodded, and shook her head again: "I followed my grandfather's surname, my father was abducted at the beginning, and after being adopted, he followed the surname Zhao, and later recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, my brother followed the surname Zhao, and I followed the surname Su." My mother didn't think Trilla was good, so she renamed me Fluttershy when I was three years old. My dad called Shun Lip and never changed it. ”
Du Jie nodded, turned around and placed the tombstone in front of the grave.
"Say goodbye to your father, let's go back to Yongzhou."
Su Xiaodie looked up at Du Jie: "How does Childe plan to place me?" ”
"This ......" Du Jie hadn't actually made up his mind yet, he looked down at Su Xiaodie again, maybe he had just experienced the life and death of his relatives. Su Xiaodie didn't have the shyness she had just wiped at this time, and looked straight at Du Jie: "I'll go back to Yongzhou for a little bit, if Miss Su wants to settle in Yongzhou, I can ask someone to find you a good family." ”
Su Xiaodie shook her head: "I don't know the place in the Northwest well, I don't want to stay here." ”
Du Jie hesitated a little after hearing this, and thought for a long time before saying: "Then you go to Yongzhou with me first, and when you return to the Central Plains, I can take you back to your hometown." ”
Su Xiaodie still shook her head and said, "My hometown has long been gone, and my father is my last relative in the world." ”
"This ......," Du Jie heard that it was a little difficult to do.
Su Xiaodie turned around and knelt in front of Du Jie
"Daddy entrusted me to Childe before he died, Childe, you will take me with you in the future, I will do laundry and cook, anything, don't look at me as a child of a poor family. I have read books for a few days since I was a child, and I know a few words, and I can also take a sword and lead a horse for my son. Please accept me. ”
Su Xiaodie seemed to recognize Du Jie, knelt in front of him, and looked at him earnestly.
Du Jie had no choice, he didn't agree, but he really didn't know how to place her. Du Jie thought about it again and again, he could only do this first, it really didn't work, it was better to go back and let her stay in Yashan.
Du Jie nodded at this time: "Get up, I promised." You can follow me first, but what I'm doing is dangerous, and if I ask you to do anything in the future, you're going to do it. ”
Fluttershy understands.
Su Xiaodie finally bowed to her father and followed Du Jie to Yongzhou.
After they had walked for half an hour, the soil on the grave began to shake for no apparent reason, and then an old hand came out of it. Then he came out with his shoulders, neck, and head.
The old man named Zhao Shoude actually crawled out of the grave again.
He looked around, then looked in the direction of Yongzhou, and smiled
"This kid is still a bit interesting, much more fun than Zhang Chaozong."
With that, he came out of the graveyard and moved his muscles. I saw the blackened corpse that had been struck by lightning not far away.
"'Lightning Channeling Method', the old thing is really inferior. I dare to teach him this, and I am not afraid of setting himself on fire. That's not right, this kid has only been studying for three years with Zhen Shifang, why is the 'Lightning Channeling Method' so powerful? ”
The old man lowered his head and checked it: "It's a pity that this ramming goods of the Hong family was still a little useful, but I didn't expect it to be gone all of a sudden." His poisonous scorpion is of some use, and it can't be left to be gone. I just went...... This way. The old man muttered a few words to himself, then looked in the direction and flew over.
