Chapter 256: The mysterious and abnormal old beggar

"What's that sound? Is it from the direction of the manor?" Song Yun said worriedly.

"Yes, it's the manor...... I asked my subordinates to blow it up......"

Zhuge Yun's face immediately turned iron-blue, and crystal tears swirled in his eyes.

"Why blow it up? That's our home! A nameless anger rose in Zhuge Jian's heart.

"Yes. It was the happy home where you two lived together, and it was also your father's private property.

"There are still the memories and worries of the two of you for your mother. The rooms, corridors, halls, and green lawns you played and played in your childhood are all unforgettable!

"But there are also memories that make you sad...... The loss of your father's wife, the portrait of a mysterious woman, the murder of the loyal Uncle Jiang and the old couple of Aunt Zhao...... Now, the manor has become a place of sin and pain.

"Song Yun, you and Zhuge Yun returned to Zhuge Manor after their marriage, you may plan to start your sweet life there, but you never expected that in Mrs. Zhuge Yu's bedroom, the portrait of the woman in black would be hung there, and your dream was finally shattered.

"It's not a place to create a new life, but an old manor full of gloom and fear, so you'd better go to a warm and bright place.

"I've ordered my men to plant a large amount of explosives in the basement and have them turn on the power as soon as we cross the shallows, that's why you're so shocked!"

Then, another explosion was heard, and a huge pillar of fire suddenly burst into the forest, like a volcanic eruption, and rushed into the sky, and then a puff of black smoke slowly rose into the sky.

"Right now, the underground tunnels are being blown up. In this way, the underground military tunnels built by Army E, which took 20 years and invested a huge amount of money, were finally paralyzed.

"General Matsuki had been looking forward to the completion of the underground tunnels ahead of schedule for a general assault on the north. Now, his plot has failed, and Army E can no longer transport soldiers and ammunition from the north.

"From this point of view, although your beloved manor has become a victim, it is a great thing for the country, and you will be proud of it, right?"

"Yes, Bai Lang, you not only saved our motherland, but also brought us a happy and bright new life, thank you so much!"

Song Yun looked at Bai Lang gratefully and said with excitement.

"Do you really think so?"

A teasing smile floated to the corners of Bai Lang's mouth, he stretched out his hands from the driver's seat, Song Yun immediately stepped forward to hold his hand, and Zhuge Jian and Zhuge Yun also shook hands with him.

On that windless winter day, billowing black smoke burst up in the forest with pillars of fire.

…………

The outcome of the war did not surprise Hakuro, and ended with the defeat of country E.

After the end of the war, all the volunteers were discharged, and Song Yun and Zhuge Jian also returned from the battlefield. Fathers and sons, wives and husbands are all reunited. Everyone was excited, and a happy and peaceful life unfolded in front of them.

One day not long after, a noisy noise rang out outside the gate. After Zhuge Jian heard this, he immediately walked outside the door to look, only to see that the servants were surrounding an old man with a disability and scolding.

"What's the matter?" Zhuge Jian stepped forward and asked.

"Young master, this person is sneaking around at the door, let's let him stay away. He asked us if this was Mr. Zhuge Yu's mansion, and we said yes, so he said that he wanted to see you and your uncle Song Yun, and also to visit our Miss Zhuge Yun.

"Seeing that he was dressed in rags, and that he had asked to see you, and that he could even call you by name, we thought that he had a problem with his brain, and did not dare to let him in, but he refused to leave. Unexpectedly, he rushed in at once, and we immediately rushed up to arrest him, but this old man's strength was really great, although he was blind in one eye, broke an arm, and was lame, but he was as powerful as an ox. After he pushed me down, he beat me with his cane, so I called a few men to subdue him......"

"Is that so? Let him go! Zhuge Jian ordered.

"That's him......" The servants pushed the old man in front of Zhuge Jian, an old beggar who supported his cane with one hand, dressed in tatters, and covered with an old stained hat on his head. One sleeve swayed in the wind. A pile of dirty, gray-yellow hair hung down from underneath the hat, and even the shoes on his feet were covered with mud. Not only was the heel of the shoe frayed, but even the toe was a hole.

"You...... Who are you?" Zhuge Jian frowned and asked.

The old beggar raised his head and stared at Zhuge Jian, his face full of tears.

"Ah...... You're Second Lieutenant Zhuge Yu, right?" The old beggar said with a trembling voice.

"You know me? Who are you?"

"Even if I tell you my name, I'm afraid you'll have forgotten it. I am a soldier of the squad led by Lieutenant Song Yun, and I am also a soldier of your former subordinate Second Lieutenant Zhuge Jian. ”

Zhuge Jian stared at this mysterious and abnormal old beggar in surprise, but he couldn't remember who he was. Although many of the soldiers in the northern country were already old men, Zhuge Jian still couldn't think of the other party's name.

"This person was probably seriously injured in the war, which is why he became disabled...... Maybe they have no means to make a living, and they have to beg to make a living, and they can't even tell their faces......"

When Zhuge Jian thought of this, a sense of sympathy rose from the bottom of his heart. "Alright! You're here ......."

At this time, the old beggar's sorrow was swept away, replaced by a face full of joy, and after he saluted Zhuge Jian repeatedly, he followed Zhuge Jian to the house with a limp.

Zhuge Jian led him to the small reception room inside the gate, pointed to the bench and said, "Sit down!"

"I don't dare to sit down...... I'm just a soldier. I don't deserve to sit in front of an ensign. ”

The old beggar said hesitantly.

"Stop talking stupid, there is no war now, and we are discharged from the army, so you don't call me an ensign anymore, and you're wounded again...... Please sit down! ”

"Thank you!"

The old beggar again bowed deeply and bowed, but did not sit down, but leaned on his crutches and stood motionless.

"Where were you wounded?" Zhuge Jian asked with concern while pouring tea. "...... in that forest"

"Oh, there's a lot of fighting there!"

Zhuge Jian suddenly recalled that he and his brother-in-law were shot from behind by a stalker.

"Well, yes. Enemy bombs exploded in front of us, killing five people on the spot. I was lucky enough to be seriously injured...... However, the arm was blown off......"

Recalling the old things, the old beggar couldn't help but sigh for a long time.

"You're lucky, though......"

"Yes. Later, I went to the field hospital for treatment and was healed of my arm injury. That doctor is really a wonderful rejuvenation, his name is Bai Lang. ”

"What? White ......"

Zhuge Jian was taken aback, and his voice raised a lot. However, he still had doubts.

He was suspicious of the old beggar in front of him, and looked at the old man with sharp eyes, and the other party suddenly burst into a hearty laugh.

"Hah! Ha...... I'm finally exposed......"
