Chapter 3, Qin Shuang (3)

The remnant sun is like blood, the yellow sand is reckless, and the continuous trade road moves forward, and it is not behind the shadow of the mountain. The young boy stood on the top of the mountain and looked at all this, and couldn't help but sigh: "After all, it is still an ancient battlefield, and I can still vaguely hear the sound of fighting on the ancient battlefield." A veteran finally swallowed defeat with pain, maybe he was standing here, maybe he was standing there, and he saw his own soldiers being swallowed up by the other party's soldiers. On the one hand, he must be wearing blood-like armor, and the armor that has been watered with blood will be brighter, but in the remnant sun, the blood-soaked body will also look a little cold. ”

"No, little one, death is cold, and soldiers who fight on the battlefield will not feel cold, even in the ice and snow." An old voice came, like an eternal voice before the battle on the ancient battlefield, and said, "It's because of the surging blood!" It will make people feel warm and feel hot. A power that did not belong to him descended on the warriors, who roared and rushed to kill, excited, and in front of them it was no longer the same soldiers, but a stake on the training ground, only to chop. However, the same is true of the warriors on the other side, roaring, rushing, and excited...... When their weapons slash at each other, they have absolute certainty of killing each other, but in fact, they don't know whose weapon will take the other's life first, or whether it will fall on the other person at the same time, and then fall on the battlefield at the same time. ”

Childe looked around, and did not find the person who spoke, at this time a team of people and horses on the business road was running, and the sunset was about to hide behind the mountain, Childe frowned slightly, he was not afraid of anything, but at this moment, there was inevitably a trace of chill, however, at this time, on the mountain road where Childe went up the mountain, there was a lame sloppy old man who slowly swayed over. The old man's crutches are just ordinary pine branches, but he has used them for a long time, and he has to bear his body, but it is a little bent, and the place where he holds it is smooth, but because he has held it for a long time, he has a layer of pulp, but this pulp looks extremely greasy and has no beauty.

The lame old man staggered to the side of the childe, with that shy and sincere smile, and said: "This son, this place is an ancient battlefield, although there is a business road here, but this business road is only a small road, there are often murders and goods here, if the son has nothing else, it is better to leave as soon as possible!" If you go forward here, there are still four or five miles to reach Wanyangyuan, it is a small town, and many caravans will rest and replenish in Wanyangyuan, so Gongzi may wish to go to Wanyangyuan. Of course, Childe also has another choice, which is to turn around and return to Fine Sand City, which is slightly larger than Late Yang Yuan. ”

"The seniors don't need to be polite, the juniors are called Qin Shuang!" Qin Shuang's face was heroic, but there was also three points of laziness in his heroic spirit, Qin Shuang hugged his fists towards the old man and said, "Senior, Qin Shuang rushed over from Fine Sand City, and I heard that this place is an ancient battlefield, so I came to watch it." It is rumored that there is a corresponding wonder of starlight and phosphorescence fire here, which is really shocking, and where will you rush to the Evening Sun Plain? Senior, seeing that you are also alone, why don't you also come to enjoy this starlight and phosphophores? ”

The old man suddenly appeared, of course Qin Shuang was a little suspicious, but Qin Shuang would never speculate on a person with malice, he thought that the other party was a good person, and just asked casually. Qin Shuang didn't care what the old man was doing, what kind of mind the old man had, Qin Shuang didn't care at all.

Although the old man looked sloppy, he also had arrogance in his heart, and he also had a smile on his face at this time, but he was also a little uncomfortable, and the old man said: "Qin Shuang Gongzi, the starlight can also be watched, but if it is phosphorus fire, it is easy to watch." There were so many soldiers buried under the yellow sand here that when they were reduced to phosphorus fire, there was no trace of them between heaven and earth. ”

Watching the phosphorus fire on the ancient battlefield was a kind of disrespect to the original soldiers, Qin Shuang naturally knew that at this moment, the old man said this, Qin Shuang smiled and said: "Senior, the phosphorus fire here is the feats they once fought!" It would be an honor if such a feat, and the younger generations came to see the phosphorus fire here to show respect for them, not disrespect and blasphemy. Therefore, although the seniors are relieved, the younger generations are just here to feel the fighting spirit of the ancient battlefield. ”

The old man wanted to say something, but Qin Shuang didn't want the old man to continue, so he took out the dried meat and wine from his bag, put them on the ground, and invited the old man to eat them together, saying: "Senior, this is some food, if the predecessor doesn't dislike it, let's eat it with Qin Shuang!" ”

The shyness on the old man's face was even worse, but his eyes had never left the jerky and wine that Qin Shuang had put out, Qin Shuang knew that the old man must also want to eat, so he immediately smiled, sat down cross-legged, and said, "Senior, please don't be formal!" Qin Shuang has never sent letters differently, it is the same for anyone. The predecessors are so free and easy, do they still care about this? ”

"Since that's the case, then the old man is welcome!" The old man was really hungry, and he swallowed a piece of dried meat that was more than half a foot in his stomach in a few bites, his eyes still swept to the wine bag that Qin Shuang put out, Qin Shuang handed it over to the old man, the old man poured a mouthful, and a little more ruddy appeared on his face, and said, "Ah, it's so cool!" Qin Shuang Gongzi, eating meat is to drink wine, otherwise, the taste will be a little less! ”

It's just that the old man realized that Qin Shuang just took out a wine bag, and he had already drunk it first, and he could see the change in the old man's expression, but Qin Shuang didn't care, took the wine bag from the old man's hand, and poured a big sip, and then said: "Senior, you are right, drinking wine is to eat meat, otherwise the taste will indeed be much less." The owner of the liquor store told me that it has been 30 years, and this time I have been drinking it for at most 15 years! When the younger generation was in Fine Sand City, the taste was even stronger! In front of this ancient battlefield, if you don't drink some old wine, it will be difficult to feel the breath of the ancient battlefield! It is rumored that wine can only be called alive if it has a soul in it, so it seems that the wine we drink now is only dead wine. Fortunately, this place is also a dead place, but it doesn't hurt! ”

Seeing that Qin Shuang was unpretentious, he picked up the wine bag and drank it, the old man's good impression of Qin Shuang also increased a lot, the old man picked up a piece of jerky, but this time he began to chew it slowly, a mouthful of meat was accompanied by a mouthful of wine, when the old man chewed the meat in his mouth, he said: "Qin Shuang Gongzi, wine lives because of people!" Qin Shuang Gongzi has never experienced so much, so he can't taste the taste of wine! The old man just can't feel the taste of wine at the moment, but he just feels that he is drinking a sip of bitter water, it is the original young and frivolous, and it seems to be the original chic time, however, when there are three points of drunkenness, the old man's heart is like a mirror, in fact, it is not young and frivolous, nor is it a chic time, but the untouchable years and the yellow sand that cannot be grasped! ”

"Oh?" Qin Shuang didn't even go to the family's big festival, he went out alone to see the ancient battlefield on the spot, see the scenery, and listen to some stories. This time, the younger generation went out to travel and experienced some of it themselves, so they naturally wanted to hear some stories from others. ”

At this time, the old man picked up a piece of jerky again, took a bite, and said: "Actually, the old man is also a soldier, the kind of soldier who has survived a hundred battles, and he can be regarded as a veteran!" The old man took a sip of wine cautiously, and even put the jerky in his hand back in place, and then continued: "On the battlefield, the old man has seen too many deaths, and he has also seen too many young people turned into bones and loess. On the battlefield, even if we die in battle, it is very good to have a thin layer of loess to cover our bodies, and a loess bag is even a luxury. However, our names will be engraved on the monument of merit and enjoy the respect of all, however, none of this means anything to us. 'It has always been difficult to recruit people, and a hundred people have gone to return one; What's more, the white-haired people look forward to the journey, and the mother cries at night'! ”

When the old man said this, his eyes were a little moist, Qin Shuang thought about it, and when the old man's mood calmed down a little, Qin Shuang said: "Senior, I didn't expect to mention your sad past." It's just that the past is over, and the seniors don't have to care. Besides, the predecessors traveled around alone this time, but it was also a kind of free and easy! ”

The sky gradually darkened, from the back and forth chat, Qin Shuang knew that this old man's name was Gao Chengxuan, according to the old man, he was a veteran, but Qin Shuang always felt a little different, Qin Shuang didn't expose him, but listened to Gao Chengxuan talk about the bloody past on the battlefield, but the old man also found out that Qin Shuang just listened to the story, but he never listened to it, Gao Chengxuan was also full of wine and meat, and said: "Qin Shuang, you little guy seems to just care about the old man's deeds, But I didn't listen to it for half a minute! Is the story told by the old man so unattractive, and you actually have no empathy? ”

"Hahaha, the past of the seniors is naturally special, but the younger generations are still young and don't have so much experience, so ......"
