It is said that the third child who came out of Ah Qi's house did not go home directly.

In fact, for much of this long day, he thought that with the death of his friends and brothers, and the death of his old father, nothing could hold him back from the city called his hometown. He can leave here in style, find a random direction on the way, it is better to go farther, or 'mix' and 'mix' to live, or to regain his strength, whatever it is, because no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than here.

But all these fantasies are centered on the word "leave".

And when the matter of "leaving" was really put on the agenda, he realized that the previous unrealistic thoughts were all under the emotion of anger or sadness, the product of impulse, and there was no way to do it.

He found that even without Ah Qi, he would never have completely separated this city from his life, because it had already become an extremely important part of his life, and if it was gone, then he would not be him. At this time, look at the grass and trees around him, bricks and tiles, and even the dry smell in the air, the soft yellow sand under his feet, and all the ordinary things that can no longer be ordinary, all of which began to make him nostalgic and reluctant.

For a while, my heart became sour, and I couldn't tell what it was like.

Unconsciously, he actually walked to the 'gate' of the north city like this.

"Huh? Third brother, why did you come here at this time, didn't the emperor send you other tasks? A group of soldiers who seemed to have just finished patrolling outside the city and were about to go back to the garrison to rest, recognized the third child from a distance.

The third child took a closer look and found that these individuals were actually the guards of the day shift at the 'gate' of the North City, and it seemed that the brothers had too many casualties, and they couldn't 'draw' some soldiers to replace the shift for a while, so they could only let this group of people "work hard" for a while.

"Oh, it's really the third brother." There began to be a echoing voice in the team, "Third brother, you came here at this time, did you forget that you don't have to come over for the night, hahaha." ”

"I don't think so, if you look at the appearance on the third brother's face, he obviously didn't expect to come over. I think he had dinner, came out for a stroll, and accidentally slipped to us. "This little brother guessed the truth very well.

"......" There was a lot of gossip among the crowd, and there was no such thing as the same description as an eggplant that had been beaten by frost in the morning.

It seems that although sadness has a great impact on a person, it will not last long after all, and a person will not be immersed in sadness forever, especially in crowded places, where everyone talks and laughs, and those annoying negative emotions will be suppressed.

"Why are you still on duty? Haven't you found the brother on duty for the 'gate' of the North City? The third child walked straight to the patrol and began to talk to them.

Alas, since I have come here, I can't go without saying hello, or I think I have come to say goodbye to my brothers.

"Yo, why are you here?" In the guard office, Brother Meng, who was listening to the soldiers below reporting the surrounding situation, was also a little surprised when he saw the third child suddenly come over.

The third said, "No, I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, everyone has been colleagues for many years, how can I not come over to say goodbye to my brothers in person." ”

"Well, why did you come here empty-handed? Even if there is no 'meat' dish, it is better to bring a few pots of good wine to the brothers to have a good time. Brother Meng quipped.

"Uh...... I...... Why don't I make it up to you when I get back? "Brother Meng's words made the third child feel weak for a while, he was originally wandering here, from Ah Qi's house to here, it took a lot of time to 'spend' along the way, at this time it was already the middle of the moon, let him go where to find good wine and good food for these people.

"Hahaha, I was just joking with you, look at you nervous." Brother Meng said with a smile.

After that, he saw that the third child's face was still not good-looking, so he sighed and comforted him, "Third child, you are still sad for those brothers who died, right? Alas, you listen to me, the dead have long since been weathered, they can no longer feel anything, but those of us who are alive still have to bear it, relax our hearts, whether it is your brothers or your family, you have already avenged them with your own hands, it's time to let go, don't let these become your burden. ”

"If you live like that, it's better to go with them directly."

"Hey, I'm just thinking that I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, and I'm a little reluctant to be here, why did you provoke such a big car of words from you to educate me." The third child waved his hand at him, and then said, "By the way, how do you know about my family's affairs?" ”

"What's the matter, the statistics of this death and injury incident have already been spread everywhere, haven't you received it?" Brother Meng felt a little strange.

The third said, "Maybe the boss knows that I'm leaving, so I don't know if these things don't matter." ”

"I heard...... The task assigned to you by the emperor is for you to return the thief's body to his master, this ......" Speaking of this, Brother Meng's eyes filled with a lot of worry.

"Oh, it's not this anymore, it's a trip to the west with someone, I'm familiar with the distance over there, nothing should happen, don't worry about it." The third said indifferently.

"But......" Brother Meng's 'desire' stopped.

The third child was puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”

"There is a saying in the team that the mastermind of this incident is the Eastern Ghost Emperor, and they will not stop because of this defeat, and they also say that sooner or later there will be a big 'chaos' in the hidden capital." Brother Meng attached to the third child's ear and said softly, "You and the emperor are closer, do you have any inside information, tell it so that I can have a bottom in my heart." ”

“…… Brother Meng, don't think about it, but what about Huangsha City, what kind of 'chaos' can happen, when did you start listening to the nonsense of the people below, I remember that you weren't like this before, really. The third said with a smile.

Brother Meng didn't reply for a long time, and he only felt that the problem was even greater. But since the third child is unwilling to tell himself, he is not easy to force.

Next, the two men discussed the issue of guarding the 'gate' of the city, and neither of them raised the previous question again.

Time kept passing, and the originally dark sky outside the window brightened a little, which was the precursor of dawn.

"Oh, look at me, I originally wanted to say a few words to you, but I didn't expect to delay you for half the night, I really deserve to fight." Brother Meng said angrily, "You go back quickly, it's good to be able to squint for a while before leaving, so as to save yourself from being delayed on the road and being punished again." ”

"Hey." The third child nodded, and began to feel that it was a bit unreasonable for him to act recklessly even though he knew that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility.

Before leaving, the third child took Brother Meng's hand and said to him with a serious expression, "Brother Meng, you have to be careful." Then he went home without looking back.

Although Brother Meng, who was left behind, was still confused, he unconsciously had gradually strengthened the defense in his heart.

It seems that something really is going to happen this time. q
