After the Yuntai round-up, Ziqing returned to the Jin family to report the news, but was unexpectedly whipped by his father.

At this time, in the gate of the Jin Mansion, Jin Yuan whipped Ziqing with a whip, and Ziqing gritted his teeth in pain, and couldn't help moaning, Jin Yuan said angrily: "I swore to protect filial piety for my father, but you came back by yourself and taught me how to explain to the dead eldest brother, how you are worthy of your uncle!" You know wrong! ”

Cold sweat oozed from Ziqing's forehead, and said, "It's Ziqing's negligence, and the child knows his mistake!" ”

Ziqing's sister Yan'er also stopped Jin's father on the side, but Jin Yuan only blamed Ziqing for not being angry, pushed Yan'er away, and continued to whip, Yan'er was helpless, so she went out to find her mother, Ziqing's mother Du Shi only entered the door and saw Ziqing's back full of whip marks dripping with blood, and rushed over like crazy, and roared: "Stop!" After snatching the whip, Jin Yuan stopped.

"I gave you this whip when I went to war, you said, such a good whip, you will not use it to drive the war horse, but always whip yourself, always remind you to be a person of affection and righteousness, you are affectionate and righteous, but you did not teach you to use it to whip my son! If you beat Yu'er again, it will be the end of our husband and wife love over the years! ”

After Du Shi finished speaking, he cried angrily while checking Ziqing's injuries.

Although the whip was leather, it was mixed with iron wire, and Jin Yuan whipped with all his strength, so the whip marks were very deep, and blood flowed out, and Du Shi looked at the wound and naturally felt like a knife.

Jin Yuan asked all the things these days again, and Ziqing said them one by one, Jin Yuan was extremely sad, and only blamed Ziqing: "Why hide it?" If you tell us that even if you can't do anything for you, even if you give advice, things won't develop to this point, and I really teach you in vain. ”

Ziqing also regretted it very much: he only knew how to hide it, if he told his father, maybe there would be a way. But what is the way, Xiao Li doesn't need to be subdued? Will Hyo-chung be able to let go of all this?

Putting down the whip, Father Jin also regretted it very much, why did he insist on leaving Ziqing that day. Just a sentence, he actually gave Xiaozhong's life. Listening to his wife talk about the battle that year, I couldn't help but think of the scene of Jin Yuan's suicide that day:

"Resign to save your life, take care of your ......"

This farewell hit my heart like a soldering iron, and I cried with tears: "Big brother, if I don't take care of Yu'er for you now, Jin Yuan's sin deserves death." ”

fell into the chair, and Yan'er supported her father and comforted her.

Ziqing also blamed himself and said: "Yes, my son deserves to die, I hate to die on behalf of Xiaozhong, please rest assured that my father will find Xiaozhong and ask my father for guilt." ”

He said to Ziqing again: "Ziqing, whether filial piety is dead or alive, for the sake of your father, please find him." Father Jin patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you live to see people, you must see corpses when you die!" ”

"Whoa!" Ziqing responded to his father like a military order, Jin Yuan naturally knew that seeing Ziqing so resolute, he sighed, Ziqing only thought that he had received the military order.

But Du Shi still didn't give up, and said: "If you want to go, you have to take care of your injuries!" ”

Ziqing didn't dare to disobey his father and couldn't hurt his mother, so he asked Yan'er to treat his wounds for him, Yan'er took Ziqing back to the room, applied some trauma medicine to Ziqing, took care of the wound and said: "Ziqing, my father is very strict, you and I know it, when he saw his brother commit suicide in front of him, and he was dying, this pain in this life can not be let go of no matter what, if filial piety cannot be found, the father will inevitably collapse, and the consequences can be imagined." ”

"And although my mother is stubborn with my father, it is also on the surface, just now I came back from looking for her, and I happened to meet her in the City God Temple to pray for the safety of filial piety."

"So-"

"Sister, needless to say, Ziqing takes this as his responsibility in this life, rest assured, if you want to see people die, you will see corpses, Ziqing will definitely find filial piety."

So, he asked Yan'er to lie to his mother that he had fallen asleep, but he didn't want to embarrass his parents, so he hurriedly packed up after Yan'er took the medicine for the injury, and went out through the back door.

Ziqing has been with Xiaozhong since he was a child, Xiaozhong died, Ziqing was sad, if he had been more stubborn and careful that day, this would not have happened.

But why did Xianhe and that woman take away Xiaozhong, whether Xiaozhong is dead or alive, although he swore to find Xiaozhong, but when Ziqing walked on the street, he realized that he was a person, and there was no more Xiaozhong in front of and behind him. This sense of loss is like falling into a 10,000-year-old ice cave, the cold of the bones is born from the heart, and the nine domains are so big, where does the vast sea of people go?

After being dazed for a while, I thought about it, and the big crane flew eastward, and then it looked eastward.

So I searched all the way east.

The eastern tour to the junction of Jingzhou and Yangzhou encountered a gang transporting goods, and was being robbed and killed by robbers at the moment.

Ziqing thought, how can bandits run rampant in this peaceful and prosperous world, fortunately, his sword did not leave his body, so he drew his sword to help, bandits are bandits, in Ziqing's hands, it is just a target for sword practice, and it will take a moment for Ziqing to easily save the brother and sister of the team leader with one hand.

Knowing that they were invincible, the leader signaled his men to retreat, and the battle ended.

And the team leader brother and sister were also very enthusiastic, they worshiped Xie Ziqing for saving him, and reported his family name, the brother refused to salute and said:

"Thank you for your help, in the lower grandson wing, this is the sister of the grandson is amazing."

It turned out that the two were from the nearby village. His sister Gongsun was amazed to see Ziqing's appearance, a talent, and a side, so he fell in love with Ziqing, so he signaled his brother Gongsun Yi to leave Ziqing behind, Gongsun Yi also admired Ziqing's extraordinary martial arts, and also intended to make friends, so he said: "In order to thank Brother Ren for his help, I also invite Brother Ren to my Gongsun's house to talk about it, can Brother Ren appreciate a thin face?" ”

Hearing that these two people have the surname Gongsun, Ziqing can't help but think of Gongsun Qilai, and then noticed that this pair of brothers and sisters, their brother Gongsun Yi is dignified and chivalrous, and his sister Gongsun is amazing and really has the beauty of shock, but Xu is running the rivers and lakes for a long time, and it doesn't look as delicate as everyone's ladies, and his actions are down-and-out and generous.

Gongsun Yi saw that Ziqing did not talk and said: "My brother and sister are away from the enemy's village, all the way to transport medicinal materials, I don't want to meet robbers, thanks to Brother Ren's righteous rescue, but also to protect the safety of our whole village, Brother Ren's great kindness Our Gongsun family is unforgettable, and I also invite Brother Ren to go to the village to get together, Gongsun Yi is grateful." ”

Ziqing was surprised and said, "This robber is not crazy, he didn't rob gold and silver treasures, but he robbed medicinal materials. ”

"Brother Ren doesn't know, there is an epidemic on our side, and now the medicinal materials are hard to find, ah, so this medicinal material is naturally as expensive as a treasure, they snatched it and sold it to the people at a high price, and the people are miserable."

"Is there such a thing?" Ziqing said in her heart: "What are the county officials doing here." ”

But Ziqing did not follow the Gongsun brothers and sisters back to the village, and insisted on following the two of them to the place where the epidemic occurred.

When Ziqing and the brother and sister came to the epidemic area in the neighboring village, as soon as they entered the village, they were really mourning everywhere, burning corpses everywhere, and there were still some people who could be treated in a few felt tents near and far.

Ziqing couldn't help but feel sour when she saw this, presumably these medicinal materials were intended to be transported here, but they were rescued in time, so she distributed medicinal materials with the two of them and took care of the refugees.

In the camp of the marching army, such a thing is within the scope of ability, so this place is regarded as a battlefield, and it is done his best to take care of the refugees, and the brother and sister see it in their eyes, especially Gongsun is amazing, and his eyes are more admiration.

After dealing with a few people who were exhausted for a while, the husband inside was also a person of duty, and they all persuaded a few people to leave early to avoid being infected, so they left the epidemic village.

Ziqing was worried about filial piety, so she naturally wanted to leave early, and it was more reassuring that there was also an epidemic elimination department here.

The grandson brothers and sisters naturally warmly retained.

Ziqing said: "Two, don't hide it, Ziqing was separated from my brother, I was ordered by my father to look for my brother all the way, I really didn't dare to delay, the two of them were kind to Ziqing." ”

Gongsun Yi said: "Since Brother Jin is looking for relatives, then you should go to the village to talk about it, after all, we will go south and north, and when we sit down and talk about it, we may be able to help you find Brother Ling, maybe it's okay."

Gongsun said in amazement: "Yes, son, my brother is very gracious, you, don't shirk." ”

Ziqing thought that it was not too early to come, so it was better to go in and see the Gongsun family, so he said, "Okay." The two of them are so gracious, if Ziqing shirks again, it will be rude. ”

Gongsun was amazed, and Gongsun Yi was also very excited and said: "Brother Ren, please!" ”

"Brother Gongsun, please!"

Several people reported each other's names along the way, the age, it turned out that Ziqing was five years older than Gongsun Yi, six years older than Gongsun Amazing, the two have inherited the family motto since childhood and have been taught by their parents, so they are also full of poetry and books, and help the people do some chores in the village.

Several people came to Liqiu Village in this way, and the Gongsun brothers and sisters were busy distributing the remaining medicinal materials to the people in the village.

Ziqing takes care of his own sightseeing, this place is also a rich place of feng shui, the fields are fertile and fertile, although the people's clothes are simple, but the spiritual outlook is fruitful, not like the border pass often trapped in the northern region people harassing the people and making a living.

In the blink of an eye, Gongsun Yi and Ziqing have come to Gongsun's house, this Gongsun's family lives on the north side of the village, there are not many households here, but it can also be seen that it should be a big family, the house is built in a unique style, the plaque couplet is quite bookish, and each house has an elegant name, unlike the general village people.

Gongsun Yi took Ziqing to the residence of the patriarch of Gongsun, the mansion here was slightly larger than the others, and he came to the upper hall in a blink of an eye.

Only a painting in the hall came into his eyes, only to see the person in the painting fairy wind bones, Bo crown white robe, a hawk on the shoulder is particularly conspicuous, the owl's eyes are blazing, the two horns on the head appear to be very cute, Ziqing stopped and looked at the person in the painting in surprise, and missed Gongsun Qi: So it seems that this place is really the hometown of Gongsun Qi, so this is not the former residence of Gongsun Qi? Who are these Gongsun brothers and sisters?
