Chapter Forty-Nine: Seven Days Later
It was almost dawn, and the east was already white.
On the main hall, the old man of purple gold looked at the candle flame and was still meditating. Is it really impossible for the Lone Bamboo Kingdom to escape this catastrophe? Thirty years, no one can defeat him? Perhaps, but these people are no longer here.
"Run, where is the end of the escape?" the old man smiled bitterly.
The lonely bamboo country of Nuoda, with a population of no less than one million, is still asleep at this time. Should we make the facts public and let them flee for their lives? Or should we continue to wait for news from the divine soldiers to see if a miracle can happen?
"What the hell am I going to do, who can tell me?" the old man hesitated with pain on his face.
If the facts are made public, it will inevitably have a chain reaction and cause national turmoil. But with so many refugees, where do they want to flee to? Will your neighbors let you enter? The enemy is currently in turmoil.
"No!" the old man muttered at this thought.
If it is not announced, the Genesis Alliance will not be able to resist it. I'm afraid that before the governor came, the wolf city was already over.
Yes, whoever it is. Faced with such a situation, it is difficult to make a decision. How much more is it the king of a nation?
"It doesn't matter, one-tenth is already a lot, just take away those who are rich, powerful, and have status, and let the rest of them fend for themselves! ”
Ouyang Shaofei's words echoed in the old man's mind for a long time. "Do you really want to do that?" the old man hesitated.
"No, absolutely not. The old man's eyes suddenly flashed with determination.
"At the moment of the great enemy, there is no distinction between high and low. If you have to divide the highs and lows, it will only cool everyone's hearts, and you will lose in the end. That's what he thought at this point.
It's dawn.
A few rooster crows could be heard in the distance.
The old man was lying on the dragon chair, but his spirit was a little sluggish.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and said lightly: "Zuo Xiang, what's the matter?" He wasn't talking in a dream, because there was indeed a person standing at the door at this time.
The full name of the old man in Zijin is Nangong Duan, when he was young, his martial arts were not weak, and he was also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, so at such an old age, he was not deaf and his eyes were not dazzled.
As he spoke, he took two steps and three steps to the left and had already arrived in the temple.
"National ??? Lord of the Kingdom", his voice trembled.
Nangong Duan stood up from the dragon chair, let out a long sigh, and said with a wry smile: "The Creation Alliance still hasn't stopped him for a moment, it seems that Wolf City is really out of danger this time." ”
He moved his muscles and bones, and then said: "Zuo Xiang, it seems that you and I haven't fought side by side for twenty years, and today is an opportunity. ”
"What chance?" asked Zuo Xiang.
Nangong said: "Prove that you are really old." ”
"Three thousand dead soldiers, prepared ??????" , Nangong continued, but he only stopped after half a sentence, because he found that Zuo Xiang was laughing at him.
His smile has an indescribable charm, Nangong not only did not get angry, but felt very comfortable, comfortable like the breeze blowing across the earth at dusk in summer.
"Zuo Xiang, you?" Nangong was puzzled.
"Lord, you don't have to worry. For this lord who is exhausted for the country, the left minister is respectful from the bottom of his heart.
They have known each other since childhood, almost sixty years. Their relationship has remained delicate for 60 years. At the court, they are red-faced kings and ministers who will fight for their own opinions, and below, they are good brothers who say everything, but when they come to the battlefield, they become comrades-in-arms who cooperate seamlessly and are willing to sacrifice for each other.
He admired him very much, because he was the only one who dared to withstand such great pressure and withdraw from the Creation Alliance. No other monarch has such courage now.
"You don't have to worry!" he couldn't help but say again, and the difference was that tears flowed down his face.
Tears are seven points of joy and three parts of pain. Why he was happy, why he was painful, he couldn't say why. He only knew that at their age, they didn't have to live so tired.
"What?? Could it be?" Nangong Severe's body trembled, and he was already speechless with excitement.
Suddenly, he shook his head again and said, "What is this possibility? I must have thought too much." ”
Zuo Xiang wiped his tears and said, "The crisis has been eliminated, and the Flying Yaksha has been defeated!"
"Really?" Nangong Duan almost jumped up and choked up.
"Really. Zuo Xiang shouted in his loudest voice, he was afraid that Nangong would not be able to hear it.
Nangong was stunned.
"Lord of the country, please look!" Zuo Xiang trembled and took out a jade talisman from his arms and presented it. Nangong took the jade talisman tremblingly. At a glance, I saw a flash of golden light on it, and a few lines of small characters were neatly written.
"Lord Nangong, the danger of Wolf City today has now been lifted, you don't have to worry about it anymore. If you want to give the whole country a reward, you don't have to. You just have to remember that all the credit goes to a teenager. And I am hurrying to your palace now, hoping to catch up with the rich banquet you have prepared.
Ren Tianyi, the general stationed in Xiguo, presented it. ”
After Nangong finished reading it, he had already burst into tears, and his trembling hand held Zuo Xiang's hand tightly. Can't speak.
"Lord, you can rest now!" Zuo Xiang said excitedly.
Nangong waved his hand, he understood, why didn't Zuo Xiang close his eyes all night?
"Zuo Xiang, do you know who that young man is?" Nangong said suddenly.
Zuo Xiang said: "I don't know, I just know that he is also seriously injured, and he is desperate." ”
"Such a great grace, no matter what, we must not forget!" Nangong straightened his waist and said word for word.
Zuo Xiang looked at the rising sun in the east and muttered, "We must not forget!"
Five days later.
Castle Skywolf.
On the edge of the bed, Ruozi was leaning over to wipe the sweat from Gordon's forehead.
"Zi'er, what is that kid like this?" At this time, Tian Yuanzi's voice sounded in the room. Ruozi turned her head and shook her head gloomily, and said, "It's still the same, and there is no reaction at all!"
Tian Yuanzi came to Gordon's bed in a wheelchair, let out a long sigh, and said, "I hope he wakes up soon!
Ruozi looked at Gordon's emaciated face, and said bitterly: "The doctor said, let's not worry, he is very strong, and he will wake up sooner or later??????" The more she spoke, the quieter she became, and in the end she was not confident enough, just crying.
No one can survive seven days without eating or drinking. Even if he is a god, he also has to eat.
Tian Yuanzi didn't know Ruozi's mind in his heart. He had already decided that when Gordon woke up, he would definitely recruit Gordon as his son-in-law.
Whoever has such a son-in-law will be proud.
Tian Yuanzi was thinking about it. Suddenly, someone shouted at the door, "Lord of the castle, the lord of the kingdom has come to visit you in person, and you are now in the main hall." ”
Tian Yuanzi smiled bitterly and said, "I'll be here soon!"
This is the seventh time that Nangong has come to Heavenly Wolf Castle in person, and he doesn't know how many times he has sent people to inquire about the situation here. Tian Yuanzi understood where he was coming to visit him, he was obviously here to visit Gordon's condition. Nangong decided to beat the attention of his future son-in-law, could he not be in a hurry?
Thinking, thinking. The people outside had already pushed Tian Yuanzi in the direction of the main hall.
Seven days later.
Clear blue sky.
The endless sea.
As far as the eye can see, seagulls soar. I saw a huge blue whale churning and playing in the endless sea, rolling up a thousand waves.
Above the blue whale stood a ** teenager, cheering happily. Suddenly, a large bird passed over his head, and a figure fell from the bird's back and appeared next to the boy's voice.
"Grandpa?" the boy couldn't help but exclaim.
"Gordon, stop playing, it's time to go back, or your two sisters will be worried again. ”
"No, I'm not going back, I haven't had enough?" said Gordon.
The old man suddenly became angry and said loudly: "Bastard boy, what did you say?"
As soon as he was angry, the sky had turned inky, and the sea was tumbling.
"Grandpa, don't, don't!"
"Don't ????"
Suddenly, Gordon's eyes opened. He looked at the beautiful bed curtain and the soft sheets. He suddenly let out a long breath and said, "I'm scared to death, but fortunately I'm dreaming." ”
He shook his head, and suddenly remembered. After a great battle, he finally defeated the Flying Yaksha, but he was also seriously injured and finally fell.
He looked around, confused, not knowing where he was.
"What is this?" Suddenly, he saw a person lying on his stomach next to the bed, and he almost screamed in shock.
"Ruozi!" a shadow suddenly appeared in Gordon's head, just like the woman in front of the bed. If the purple bird lies in front of the couch like a human, snoring slightly. I was already asleep.
"That's good!" Gordon looked at Ruozi and stretched lazily. Because he already knew that Ruozi was fine, she was still alive and well. He was so comfortable now that he wanted to drink a big bucket of milk.
Sometimes, if you do what you promised someone else, isn't it a happy thing?
The clear glow of the moonlight shone through the thin curtain of the bed. Gordon knew that it was still late at night and everyone was still sleeping.
But he couldn't sleep now, because he didn't know how long he had been asleep, and now he just wanted to get up and move.
Ruozi suddenly took a nap and leaned closer to him. Gordon froze, he almost forgot that Ruozi was still by his side.
He gently lifted the quilt and tiptoed out of bed. Only then did he realize that he was covered in bandages, and there were blood stains on it, and it was very inconvenient for him to walk. He leaned over sharply and hugged Ruozi in his arms.
Ruozi was wearing only a thin shirt, and Gordon could already feel the cold on her. He moved as gently as he could, for fear of waking her up.
He carefully placed Ruozi on the bed and gently covered her with the quilt.
When he finished doing this and was about to go out to get some air, he found Ruozi looking at him with blurred eyes.
