Chapter 43: The heart is like ashes
It wasn't until Gamfi fainted from grief and woke up the next day that he felt like a dream. But when he walked into the military tent again with inexplicable fear, and saw Mo Yumei's body still lying quietly, he found that this was the bloody and incomparably accurate reality--- Yumei was gone, and the biggest sustenance and pillar in his heart completely collapsed overnight.
He sat beside Mo Yumei's corpse for three days, without eating anything, not saying a word, or even shedding a tear. It's not that he doesn't want to cry, he can't wait to cry and let out the pain in his heart, but he wants to cry without tears, and the tears may have turned into blood flowing from the bottom of his heart, which has long dried up in the silent condensation. He could only sit silently and silently, holding Mo Yumei's hand, and his posture did not even change in the slightest.
The swordsmen of the Gongfu had already bathed Mo Yumei's body with fragrant soup and millet wine, and dressed her in a gauze twisted dress, and thick ice cubes were piled up next to the corpse, so that Mo Yumei's body remained as alive even in this hot season.
The coffin has been prepared for the burial, but because Gan Fei is sitting so dry and has not been able to enter the coffin, the swordsmen know that Gan Fei is sad, so he can also remember and wander, every time he comes, he is also lightly not alarmed him, silent for a moment and then left, leaving only Gan Fei and Qia Er in the whole tent.
Among the three days, only Qia Er accompanied Gan Fei for the longest time, and the great change of her father-in-law from joy to sorrow also made her heartbroken inexplicably, and she insisted on pulling Gan Fei several times, so that Gan Fei drank some water, so that she would not faint again due to hunger and thirst. But sometimes, Qia Er sat silently on the side, looking at Mo Yumei's corpse with twinkling eyes, thoughtful.
Da Sima has not appeared, the attack on Dongping Xuchang has been frustrated, has made him anxious, military affairs and government affairs are busy, these three days is the frequent mobilization of troops and horses, almost all the moment in the vicious battle, where did he spare time to mourn Mo Yumei, and appease Gan Fei?
What really annoyed the Great Sima was that the army ten times larger than the enemy would be repeatedly frustrated when attacking a small city of Xuchang, and the elite soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty could not be said to be brave, their combat power was not strong, and even the various armor and weapons were far better than those soldiers of Xianbei Donghu. In this siege, Donghu relied on the strength of the rampant cavalry to play, and the simple city defense of Xuchang was far inferior to the garrison of Luoyang, which was high and deep in the city, but it was always climbed to the top of the city under the bloody battle of the army, and when it was killed in close quarters, it was finally defeated and scattered.
The head of the city has been replaced with the banner of the king of voodoo, and the Donghu Yan army does not seem to be affected by the death of the previous main general Murong Li, on the contrary, the fight is more ferocious, and according to the retreating siege soldiers, there is a team of almost invulnerable strange soldiers at the head of the city, no matter how different the outnumber, those invulnerable soldiers can always brutally kill the Jin soldiers who climbed up the city wall, or disemboweled, or cut off the waist, which is abnormal, and after several fights, the Jin army is more and more frightened, but the Yan army is morale is greatly boosted, and every defeat stems from this.
Recalling the previous ambush battle in Huangxu, Murong Li was protected by a brigade of sergeants to fight his way out of the encirclement, Da Sima was puzzled, sure enough, it was those demons and ghosts who were haunting him and blessed Donghu? Only by stepping up the attack every day, even if those eccentric sergeants can be invulnerable, the Yan soldiers next to them are always flesh and blood, once the injuries are exhausted, how much role can the remaining few eccentric sergeants play? At best, it is enough to protect the main general and retreat.
Da Sima didn't ask Gan Fei, there is another layer of meaning, according to what the demon figure said, don't the demons covet the world for a long time, and sooner or later there will be a war? And if these strange soldiers are really involved in demons and monsters, then see if the human army can find a way to restrain themselves in the fierce battle, and can they still let the evil things stop the king's plan? If such a powerful army is still helpless against these few demons and demons, then wouldn't this human world realm have already become the thing in the hands of demons?
Da Sima didn't believe it, and he was even more unwilling, and he was entangled for a few days, which also stimulated the stubbornness in his character, which was consumed with the army of the god of war of the king of Vodoo who was defending the city. Three days of bloody battles, but not all without gains, in the case of nearly 10,000 casualties, it is rumored that someone actually killed a few strange Yan army, Da Sima did not know that this was because someone burst out of the hidden body of the Emperor, but he was more confident, in this way, the offensive of the army was more fierce.
The battle was fierce, especially when it came to the ghost guards of the King of Fudu, Han Li naturally followed the side of Da Sima, paying close attention, although he was sad, but he had no time to deal with Mo Yumei's funeral, and he had never had a deep talk with Gan Fei, he only told Gan Fei about Mo Yumei's death on the second day when Gan Fei fainted and woke up, and unexpectedly, Gan Fei did not have the slightest reaction to what was the wind and angry lion, what Donghu ghost guards and the like, his eyes were cloudy and gloomy, and he only held Mo Yumei's hand in a daze, and looked at each other in a daze。
The mourning is too great, and the heart is like ashes. Han Li actually understands Gan Fei's current situation very well, when Wuqing was gone in the past, how could he not be so depressed and miserable all day long? With Gan Fei's usual temperament, he was so sad that he could always gradually come out of the haze in his heart. Han Li thought so, it is important to deal with the current war, and the battle situation will be resolved at a regular time.
What Han Li didn't expect was that the grief and pain that Gan Fei experienced was far more profound than he had estimated. Since Longhu Mountain dissolves the demonic power and loses all his own strength, Gan Fei has been hit hard, and he always sighs and hates that he has become a wasted person, if it is not for the idea that he can reunite with Mo Yumei and still have the joy of the family, he will almost collapse; when he goes to the two battles with the white fox before the previous Fen Zhuang, he secretly feels that he has no hope of recovery, and he is even more depressed under the regret; finally there is an orphan girl Qia Er as a righteous daughter, and the happy event of making Gan Fei rejuvenate is a reality; but all the planning stops, and the rejuvenated Gan Fei sees Mo Yumei Xiang disappear and die, which is like a thunder in nine days, and the whole body is shattered inch by inch, and the beautiful dream of the beautiful Lu finally becomes an illusion, there is nothing to love in this life. Mo Yumei's death became the last straw that crushed Gan Fei's state of mind.
The dry sitting of the first two days is a clear reproduction of the scenes before Mo Yumei's death in my mind, sometimes happy, sometimes intoxicated, sometimes wandering and sighing, sometimes smiling, but when I saw the remains of Yiren in front of me, the sadness became more and more intense, and the thick depression was in my heart, and I was even more overwhelmed. On the third day, Gan Fei gave up on himself: Conquering demons and subduing demons, saving people and saving the world, all have nothing to do with me. Naturally, there are heroes to bear, but what do you want me to do as a waste person? Yu Mei is gone, even my blood has turned into the walking dead, so it is better to go with her to rest. Gan Fei's heart flashed, but he immediately remembered Qia'er, and after some difficult thoughts, he finally let go of the idea of committing suicide.
Without a lover, but with a daughter, this life is not completely empty and unsettled, after thinking for a long time, Gan Fei gradually made a decision. Pull Qia Er to adulthood, and live up to the love of saving orphans and recognizing women, and send them to the Qianjia family as soon as they have a convenient place, so don't learn any methods of subduing demons and subduing demons, just like a sister-in-law, and be an ordinary girl who does not go through the sinister Bokan with peace of mind.
The last time, Gan Fei put down Mo Yumei's already stiff hand, the last time, Gan Fei kissed Mo Yumei's cold lips, and the last time, Gan Fei stared at this haunting face...... I can no longer hear your laughter, never smell your fragrance again, and no longer feel your enthusiasm like fire, which can melt the warmth of stubbornness.
Gan Fei stood up, his legs numb from sitting for a long time, and he said the first sentence in three days, his voice hoarse and dry: "Qia'er...... Kowtow to your godmother, this is ...... The last side. ”
Qia Er obediently stepped forward and bowed deeply to Mo Yumei's body.
There are some small things on the table next to the corpse, this is Mo Yumei's relics, there are silver hairpins and gold hairpins, there are also animal bones and ornaments belonging to the Ding Ling clan, and there is a tiger jade plate on that side, but Gan Fei picked up a shiny and dark short sword, he recognized this short sword, in the ghost world of the Moon Spirit ghost general, it was this short sword that pierced the left eye of the Moon Spirit; Gan Fei's heart seemed to have been torn off by life, and he trembled in pain.
Yu Mei's sword in the sleeve, Gan Fei closed his eyes fiercely, put the sword in the sleeve into his arms, the cold sword body made him calm down a little, and stood silent for a long time before taking Qia'er's little hand.
The moment he walked out of the tent door, Gan Fei's heart was tight, this step would never see Mo Yumei's face again, but Gan Fei finally didn't have the courage to turn back, it had become a permanent secret, and he was reluctant to linger like this, just adding a few more scars to his heart like a dead tree, and it became more and more painful.
......
When Han Ni held the eating utensils and entered the tent, he found that the tent was empty, and only the light smile on Mo Yumei's face was still there.
......
Da Sima sent a message to find the Xianbei Fengge envoy who had been captured before for questioning, and Lu Shuoqi and Li Fei Suxi were escorted by the soldiers and went straight to the Chinese military tent.
Gan Fei led the thin horse and passed by, Li Fei looked back in amazement, and with her keen spiritual perception qi, she noticed something unusual. The little girl on horseback had a very strange aura on her body, which was mysterious, not just a person with spiritual power...... No, not only the little girl, but also the big man who led the horse in front of him, who was clearly a vain and timid ordinary physique, was also shrouded in a layer of hazy and strange air currents.
......
Another military tent opened a corner, revealing the gloomy face of a mustachioed man, who was Xiahou Tong, the eldest son of Baimo. His eyes were also fixed on the figure of Gan Fei and his party, but what he really cared about was Qia'er on a horse.
"Mu Fengdao's breath, and there is a ......" Xiahou Tong said to himself in his heart, "...... The breath of the water. ”
......
A lonely back, a scrawny brown horse, and a thin girl on horseback, swaying slightly as the brown horse paced. The same scene as when he came, but three days later, he left the barracks again. The difference is that when you come, you are happy and excited, but when you go, you are faltering and depressed.
If Gan Fei is willing to stay in the barracks for one more day, then perhaps his state of mind will change dramatically, and his dead and silent heart may rekindle the flames, regardless of the continuation of the conquest of demons and monsters.
※※※
As Gamfer's figure went farther and farther away, the whole camp exploded like rolling thunder, it was a deafening cheer, and as soon as he rode into the barracks on a strong horse, the knight was dressed in armor, his face was covered with gunpowder smoke and dust, and his body was also stained with blood, but his face was filled with a jubilant smile, and the sound of his shouting made every sergeant who heard it excited.
"Xuchang City has been taken!"
After three days of uninterrupted continuous onslaught, today's unitary half o'clock, the former army general Shen Jin first landed at the head of the city, and killed several invulnerable Hu soldiers, the enemy could not be used, retreated to the city, and the follow-up Jin army poured into the city like a tide, the Yan army's defense collapsed, Xuchang City has been captured, and the remnants of the enemy fled, under the banner of the King of Voldso, to the northwest direction.
After three days of bloody battles, he finally achieved a positive result, and Da Sima could not suppress his joyful fist and slammed it on the general's case: "Okay! Fight beautifully! It's this Shen Jin again, he was the one who beat Luoyang and captured Murong Zhong, and now he is also the one who has the best work to break through Xu Chang!
There is a reason why Da Sima is so happy. Xu Chang finally broke through, and the Dongping defense also collapsed, which means that the most and last barrier of the Eastern Hu Yan Kingdom in front of the Yellow River has been lost, as long as the Western Route Army of the Juye Waterway and Murong Chui's light cavalry can fall into a confrontation for a few days, and there is no need to win, there will be plenty of time here to start the attack on Yecheng, and the destruction of Murong Yan Kingdom is only in the middle of the hand. Moreover, Da Sima is confident that even if the combat strength of Yuan Zhen's Western Route Army is in danger, the 30,000 elites of his younger brother Huan Chong are not easy, and this time to go to the rescue, it is entirely possible to surround Murong Chui's light cavalry, and then Ye Du will have a strong army, Murong Chui's rear is unstable, and the army will be in turmoil, so he can capture it in a battle; Who doesn't know the world's famous generals, that is, my Huan Fuzi and that Murong Ke and Murong Chui are known in the world, this time I broke the second son of the Murong family alone, but it is not the name of my Huan Fuzi that I really became a soldier in the world? Not to mention the success of the Northern Expedition and the immortal feat of destroying the Hu State.
This is just a joy, but another layer of joy, but his own persistence is indeed reasonable, isn't it that those invulnerable strange sergeants are involved in demons and ghosts, and people are difficult to defeat? Aren't they also defeated by the warriors in our army? If this is the case, then if the real demons want to attack in a big way, how can our iron army in the world not have the strength to fight?
Da Sima ordered again and again that the army should quickly enter the entire territory of Dongping, chase and fight fiercely, and not give the Donghu rout soldiers any respite, and at the same time announced that they would march and move to Xuchang City.
Da Sima Zhi was full of pride, and he was so happy in his heart that when Han Ni came to report that Gan Fei had left the camp without saying goodbye, Da Sima didn't pay attention to it at all, and waved his hand casually: "Gan Zhuangshi is sad about the death of the lonely goose, and his actions are inevitably disordered, and he will mediate for a while, and he will come to him again in the future." Han Li was stunned, he didn't expect Gan Fei to leave so suddenly.
Just when the army was about to set up camp, a sergeant hurriedly reported to the Chinese army: "There is a vision in the city, and the army does not dare to move lightly." ”
