Volume 1 (8) (Revised)

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and such a day of family reunion is too cruel for the soldiers guarding the border.

In order to alleviate the loneliness of the soldiers who miss their families, the Mid-Autumn Festival in the army every year is a lively and lively event. The atmosphere of the Mid-Autumn Festival is getting stronger and stronger.

After Shen Qiyu came back that day, he had already seen someone discussing whether to buy the mooncake filling or make it himself.

Before Shen Qiyu recovered from the sadness of the whole army being wiped out and coming back alone, he fell into the loneliness of missing his family again.

Mr. Zhao was very understanding, he saw that Shen Qiyu was full of embarrassment that day, and there were many people in the hall, so he didn't say anything. But after dinner, he went to Shen Qiyu's house alone and asked him if he wanted to go back to the imperial city.

Shen Qiyu didn't even arrive in Shangzhou for a month, although he missed Nanwang and them, but he was a little embarrassed to hear Zhao Zongbing's "special concern".

He replied: "All the brothers have been here longer than me, but none of them can go home, not even General Zhao, you are guarding the border during this festival, what reason do I have to go back to the imperial city." It's also a blessing to be able to live with so many people. The person you miss can still be 'thousands of miles together' with him. ”

Seeing that the sages were thinking together, Shen Qiyu thought deeply of this sentence. Although Shen Zeyun acted strangely and was confusing, his swordsmanship was indeed good, at least Shen Qiyu felt so. As for the strategy, I don't see it for the time being.

Since the second day he returned to the barracks, he has either practiced swords or found someone to compete in one day. Most people can't beat him, and he loses after a few moves. If you are defeated, you will no longer be on it. But he dragged people not to leave, so he had to compare and go. The most unlucky of them is the timid Xie Chen, who was pushed around by everyone.

But it was this blind person who benefited Shen Qiyu a lot.

On this day, he put away his sword and lifted Xie Chen, who had just been beaten to the ground by him: "Thank you, brother." ”

Xie Chen stood up easily, and his legs trembled with fright by his words: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's General Xie Chen and Xie Shen." ”

Xie Chen has indeed learned a lot as a sparring partner in the past two days, and although he has no rules when he uses weapons, he is much more accurate and calm. To say that these two people have gained something, and they should thank each other, but these two people thanked each other, and the cycle went back and forth, and Xie Chen was about to kneel down for him: "General Shen, I thank you—"

Shen Qiyu finally had no intention of thanking him again, as if he suddenly remembered something: "What day is today?"

Xie Chen was still in the endless thanks of his boss, and he didn't react for a while: "Ah, ah, August 11." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Shen Qiyu pat his head: "It's been three days, I forgot." ”

But in the next moment, Shen Qiyu was puzzled: "He may have dug a trap for you, why are you still annoyed by this." ”

Xie Chen saw that his expression changed for a while, and asked, "General Shen has an appointment with someone?"

Shen Qiyu thought: "That's right, because this is an agreement with him, no matter who the agreement is, the party who breaks the contract will always feel embarrassed." He replied vaguely, "Well, but I forgot, it should have been yesterday." ”

He waved his hand, leaving only the exhausted Xie Chen standing in place and going back by himself.

Two days ago, the group of people who discussed how to get the moon cake filling did not agree in the end, so they simply divided into two teams, one team made it by itself, and the other team went to buy it.

Everyone happily passed the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance. Someone ran nearly 100 miles in the middle of the night to a place where there was a market, caught up with the door of someone's store, bought most of the stuffing, and had already rushed out a pot before lunch.

A soldier ran towards Shen Qiyu with a bowl: "General Shen, try the moon cakes we made." ”

Shen Qiyu looked at the lumps of things in the bowl and asked, "Did it yourself?"

"The stuffing is bought, and the outer skin is made by ourselves. The soldier smiled sheepishly, "It's ugly, it's ugly, but it's definitely familiar." ”

Shen Qiyu picked up a piece and took a bite with a smile: "It's delicious." It's just that I eat the mooncakes now, what do you eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"When the time comes, I'll buy it and share it with everyone. ”

Shen Qiyu didn't use much money in the palace, and he was a "rich son" who didn't know firewood, rice, oil and salt, but at this time, he didn't know what was going on, so he was blessed to his soul and asked: "Is the money for buying stuffing their own?"

"Yes. ”

Shen Qiyu frowned, the treatment in the army was not bad, but it was definitely not rich. Many soldiers are the only laborers in the family, relying on this military salary to support the family.

Shen Qiyu said, "Why don't you take me with you?" He took out a money bag from his arms, took it out of it, and finally took out a small piece of broken silver for him: "Take it, remember to bring my share if you buy it later." ”

The soldier hurriedly said, "General Shen, you have given too much. It is enough for each of our brothers to take two or three copper plates. ”

Shen Qiyu suddenly learned to be dead-skinned: "You don't treat me as a brother?"

"Thank you, General. Take a few more ......," he said, leaning the bowl in front of his face.

Shen Qiyu smiled and waved the mooncake that he had only bitten in his hand: "I haven't finished eating it yet, there are many brothers in front of me, go and surprise them." ”

With that, he took a bite of the moon cake and strode forward.

Shen Qiyu chewed on this extremely rough mooncake, thinking of the exquisite pastries in the palace, his eyes suddenly bent and smiled. This smile added a little childishness to him, more like a son-in-law.

In the past, at this time, the people in Li Du had already added clothes, but now in Shangzhou, when they don't wear armor, everyone still only wears a single coat and doesn't feel cold.

It was night, Shen Qiyu stood outside the door, watching the moonlight through the leaves left mottled on the ground. I don't know why, it's obviously bedtime, he is still wearing a suit of armor, a sword at his waist, and the cold moonlight is like a layer of frost on his body, but he doesn't feel cold.

He took two steps forward, as if he hesitated, as if there was some flood beast in front of him, and stopped again. He thought, "He only said two days later, and he didn't say what the hour was, maybe I wouldn't have been able to meet him if I went, and if he had asked me why I wasn't going, I could have said the same." ”

He muttered, "Well, yes......" and turned around and went back into the house.

He didn't light the lamp, unmounted his armor, and climbed into bed by moonlight. He thought that he would not be able to sleep, and he would dwell on this matter for a while, but he had practiced sword practice all morning in the morning, and he was already too tired to do it, and his consciousness was blurred after lying down for a while.

But before he could sleep well, he heard the sound of the door opening and closing, as if there were footsteps. He suddenly sobered up, relying on his high art, he was not afraid, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, wanting to see what the visitor wanted to do.

The next moment, the man came to Shen Qiyu's bedside.

His nerves stretched to the extreme, and he felt the quilt covering his body, and suddenly forgot to breathe.

The visitor chuckled: "Awake?" or not asleep?"

Shen Qiyu opened his eyes suddenly, facing Shen Zeyun's eyes. Obviously, it is not himself who is the thief, but Shen Qiyu is very weak-hearted. Fortunately, it was night, and I couldn't see his face clearly.

"How did you get in?"

"Came in through the door. Shen Qiyu could imagine the innocence when he said this.

Before Shen Qiyu could ask again, Shen Zeyun began to chatter: "The door is not locked at night, what if some thieves enter?"

Shen Qiyu thought to himself: "That's not you." ”

"It's been so long since the beginning of autumn, and I still sleep with my clothes when I sleep at night. It's not hot in the first half of the night, and it's very cold in the second half of the night, so it's easy to ...... without a quilt."

Shen Qiyu interrupted him loudly: "How did you get into our military camp?" He brushed off the quilt that had just been covered, sat up, and looked directly at Shen Qiyu, "How many people have you brought with you, and what are you doing here?" ”

"I'm the only one, you don't trust your patrol so much, if I bring a group of people, I'm afraid you'll warn you before you enter the city. But it can't stand me up to my martial arts and quick response, hehe. He laughed twice, his voice was a little indescribably hoarse, like a pair of calloused hands caressing Shen Qiyu's heart, making his whole body tremble, "What are you doing here? ”

Shen Zeyun himself sat on the edge of the bed, and now stood up, as if he had picked up something from the ground and threw it to Shen Qiyu.

"Clothes, return yours. When do you try to fit or not, if it doesn't, just throw it away. I don't know if Shen Qiyu heard it wrong, his voice trembled a little.

Shen Qiyu thought that something was wrong with him, felt that this person was quite kind, and couldn't bear to hurt him, so he said, "Thank you." ”

Shen Zeyun said: "Do you want to give it a try? Anyway, there is no one else." ”

Shen Qiyu thought to herself: "You are the one who is the other." He said, "No, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

He put his wrapped bag next to his pillow, put on his shoes, and got out of bed.

"General Shen doesn't have to be so polite, could it be that General Shen made an appointment with me at the bottom of the slope that day just for a piece of clothing?"

"Otherwise, murder you? Sure enough, I thought too much, or why didn't you go. ”

Shen Qiyu was speechless, but his mind turned quickly, and he immediately retorted: "How do you know that I didn't go." The agreement that day did not say a specific time, I may have gone too early, and I waited for a while and saw no one. I thought you were teasing me, so I came back. Maybe it's a miss. ”

"I'll be there around the fifth watch. I'm afraid you won't be able to come out during the day, so I've been there until sunrise today. Shen Qiyu said faintly.

Shen Qiyu's face flushed, but he felt that something was wrong: "What are you trying to do? ”

Shen Zeyun spread his hands, quite helpless: "Then I really don't have anything to say." ”

"As the commander of the first army, you have to personally lead the troops in those small battles? Traveling hundreds of miles back and forth just for a piece of clothing, the other party is still the enemy? Knowing my identity, but deliberately letting me go?"

"What, I still made a mistake to let you go?" Shen Zeyun was a little annoyed when he was forced to hurry, "You are so boring." ”

"What?"

Shen Zeyun sighed and sat back on the bed: "I thought I met a friend, but the other party has always regarded you as an enemy." The first time I saw you, I only thought you were innocent and cute, and it was only a few days, and there was only aggressiveness left. ”

"The two countries of Li and Jiang are hostile, and you and I are also hostile. ”

"Wrong, very wrong. Is the state the same thing as the individual? The border is lonely, and although you and I are hostile on the battlefield, what does it matter if we are friends in private? ”

Shen Qiyu didn't speak, his face was full of "I don't believe it", but he was carrying the moonlight, and Shen Zeyun couldn't see it clearly.

"Hey, speaking of which, I told you to wait, you really waited, what do you think, hahaha......"

Shen Qiyu: ......

"Hey, don't be angry, say it well, what are you doing, don't drive me away!"

"General Shen, whether you are friends or not, so late at night, you still go back to sleep. As he spoke, he pulled out the door, "Did General Shen come on horseback today?"

"Naturally. ”

"Then your horse will be returned another day. He shut Shen Zeyun out of the door, and even feared alarming others, so he closed the door cautiously and spoke: "Please go." ”

The people outside did not speak again, but cautiously looked around, hiding themselves in the darkness.

Shen Qiyu walked to the side of the bed, picked up the burden, and that good-looking face automatically appeared in his mind, as if he was in love, and made himself blush and heartbeat.

He opened the bag and saw what it was, he couldn't tell what color it was, but it was a little light, maybe white. Shen Qiyu was used to wearing black clothes, and felt that light-colored clothes were good-looking but not durable. Especially in this army, it is estimated that it will not look dirty if you can't wear it for a day.

He casually threw the garment on the bed, and felt that it was too much space, so he picked it up and wanted to stuff it in the cupboard, so he lit the lamp and prepared to unlock it.

It's just that where he sees it, it's white.

Shen Qiyu was angry, thinking that this person really just wanted to play tricks on himself. But the devil threw the pink garment into the cupboard.
