27. Marry you when you grow up

Three days ago, when Wang Lin was just about to leave Broken Water City and return to his hometown.

On the mountain road north of the broken mountain, several soldiers were leading Wang Lin's hometown, all the people who had survived the horse thieves' rebellion, and slowly marched towards the bottom of the mountain with difficulty. They will climb over the Broken Mountains and then travel all the way north to the great city that Xixia Prefecture has been building in full force for several years: Nghe Ann City.

"Aunt Chen, slow down, you have bad legs, Qin'er is holding you. The girl who spoke had a pair of shining eyes, clear and clear, as bright as the stars, and a few hairs were slightly curled in the mountain breeze, and then scattered in front of her eyes, which made people feel pity.

The girl tied her messy hair behind her ears at will, and her long fine black hair was draped over her shoulders, which was slightly feminine, showing a different style, some charming and delicate.

Along the way, the eyes of several young soldiers have been looking at the girl at every turn, and their eyes exude the passionate pursuit and love of mature men for the opposite sex, so the people in the village often see these young soldiers finding topics to talk to the girl when they have nothing to do.

As for the girl, she didn't seem to be able to see the thoughts of these young soldiers, and often treated the soldiers beside her in a daze, making her unhappy.

The old and young people in the village watched such scenes happen to different young soldiers again and again, and they all secretly felt sorry for the girl, and their eyes showed pity.

Even Uncle Liang, who loves to talk about the world the most in the village and calls these young soldiers brothers and sisters in a few days, every time he sees a girl like this, he will rarely fall silent and sigh. Occasionally, I would say to those soldiers: "Little brother, the girl's sweetheart is gone, and I don't have the heart to play with you in a short time, you have no hope, don't there be a few girls in our village who are very smart, let's find them." ”

After a few days, when the soldiers realized that they really had no hope with the girl, they lost interest and resigned to talking to some other girls who had responded enthusiastically to them.

The only young soldier who can make the girl show some enthusiasm is called Chen Shouli, who is a good friend of the girl from childhood to adulthood, joined the army half a month ago, and the first task is to leave his hometown with his relatives in his hometown, cross the broken mountain, and go to the north of the broken mountain in Xixiazhou City and County, Yi'an City, and settle down.

The border is in an emergency, and this time the border army seems to remember this dilapidated town that has been ignored by the imperial court for five years, and they must have moved them away.

"Sister Qin'er, don't worry, the boss will be fine, when you get to Nghe An City, you will live first, and then I will return to the border army to work hard, strive to become an official as soon as possible, and then help you inquire about the location of the leader, as soon as I find him, I will bring him to see you." Chen Shouli saw Qin'er supporting Aunt Chen, and ran to the other side of Aunt Chen to help Aunt Chen up.

Zheng Qin'er's little face was a little pale, and when she heard Chen Shouli talking about Wang Lin, she seemed to think of something, her eyes immediately turned red, and her little nose began to twitch again and again.

Aunt Chen patted Chen Shouli's head vigorously, glared at Chen Shouli, and reprimanded: "Shouli, why don't you open which pot!"

Qin'er whispered: "Aunt Chen, don't blame him, it's me who is too fragile and can only be protected by Wang Lin, when we were together before, as long as I cried and made trouble, he would follow me for any request, woo, Aunt Chen said that he would always be by my side to protect me, but now I only want him to come back, but he didn't, where is he?"

Aunt Chen sighed, hugged Qin'er, gently stroked her back, smoothed her breath, looked at Qin'er, who had lost a lot of weight, and murmured: "Silly girl, how can anyone be by your side all the time." ”

Saying that, Aunt Chen looked back at the direction of her hometown, her eyes were filled with tears, and she continued softly: "Qin'er, Aunt Chen's husband also said before that he would always protect Aunt Chen, but he really saved me five years ago, but what about him, he left by himself, how I hoped that he would not save me, don't leave me, let me accompany him to death, how good it would be." But those men are like that, they would rather leave us alone in the world than die with them. But since we survived, even for the sake of those stupid men, we have to live strongly, you know. ”

Qin'er looked at Aunt Chen with some red and swollen eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Wang Lin and Uncle Chen are not good people, they are too bad!" The surrounding villagers all looked over, and some of the girls also cried when they saw Qin'er crying.

This frightened these young soldiers, and they couldn't persuade or scold, so they had to order the team to stop and rest.

Uncle Liang patted a young soldier beside him who was hurriedly comforting the girl next to him, and said helplessly: "Don't worry, just let them cry for a while, these old ladies cried much worse than this five years ago, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it won't delay the trip." ”

After Wang Lin was beaten by Niu Zhen to faint, he was covered in blood, and his mouth kept foaming at the blood, as if he was dead and lifeless, and was finally snatched away by a young Taoist priest on the battlefield, life and death are unknown, but Wang Lin's broken appearance, no one will think that the young man still has any hope of survival, in fact, everyone gave up on Wang Lin, but Qin'er is still fantasizing that Wang Lin will come back one day, and he is struggling to hold on.

In this era of war and chaos, life is never precious or tenacious.

Since the day Wang Lin disappeared, Qin'er has never laughed again, the little girl never dared to imagine that one day Wang Lin would leave her, and she never dared to imagine how to live without Wang Lin by her side.

These days, I have been following Aunt Chen aimlessly, not daring to leave Aunt Chen, probably because I am afraid that Aunt Chen will disappear into her life one day like Wang Lin. Zheng Qin'er, who is already petite, doesn't think about tea and dinner every day because of Wang Lin's affairs, and the weight loss is very great, if it weren't for Aunt Chen taking care of her all the time, the little girl might not be able to hold on.

Five years ago, the war raged in Xiushui Town, Zheng Qin'er's father spontaneously formed a militia team to resist, but in the face of the strong iron hooves of the Yilan cavalry, without supporting a stick of incense, the entire militia team was crushed, instantly drowned in the torrent of iron armor, ashes, Zheng Qin'er's father and brother were trampled to pieces by tens of thousands of heavily armored war horses, and there were no corpses.

Because Cao Yuanpeng ascended to the sky and angrily beheaded the two Eland archangels, in exchange for the Ylang Pope: Jesus Christ attacked Xixia Prefecture with the power of the whole country for his crazy revenge, and the cavalry harvested the people in the town who did not have time to hide in their homes like locusts, regardless of men, women and children, everyone who saw it was killed.

Worried about her husband and son, Qin'er's mother called her husband and son's names on the street, and then their heads were ruthlessly confiscated by the rushing cavalry.

Zheng Qin'er, who was only ten years old at the time, was desperately covered by her sister with her hand, hid at home, and watched the earthquake-like Yilan Iron Horse pass through Xiushui Town without the slightest slowdown, but at the same time, it also destroyed Xiushui Town in an instant without the slightest hindrance.

But the disaster was not over, and it was the infantry regiments of Elam who followed the Iron Horsemen of Elam and killed everyone who did not have time to hide in the mountains. It was at this time that Qin'er's sister was raped and then killed by a rough ylang infantryman.

Xiao Qin'er lifted a stone at that time and threw it at the beast-like Elan infantry with all her strength, but there was no effect at all, the beast was still ravaging her sister, Xiao Qin'er rushed up crying, and bit the arm of the Yilan infantry desperately, the Yilan infantry screamed, and with a flick of the arm, Qin'er was easily thrown away and fell to the ground.

Then I looked back and saw that Qin'er's sister was already motionless and out of breath, and the Yilan soldier slapped Qin'er's sister again, spitting at the mouth, and scolding: "Damn, this is dead, it's really unlucky." After saying and thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Qin'er, who was just ten years old, and suddenly laughed, slowly got up from Qin'er's sister, and began to walk slowly towards her.

Qin'er's face was full of sluggishness, so she looked straight at the Yilan infantry walking towards her, her eyes were gloomy, there was no fear, some were sluggish and desperate.

Just when the infantry walked to Qin'er's side, lowered his head and looked at Zheng Qin'er with a look at the goods, a firewood knife suddenly slashed at the neck of the Yilan soldier like the first light that broke through the night, cutting a huge and bright red wound, blood gushed out like a spring, the Yilan soldier covered his neck incredulously, staggered back and looked back, only to see a boy who was only half the height of the Yilan soldier, his eyes were full of indifference, and he was holding a firewood knife larger than his own small body.

"How... But," exclaimed the Ilan soldier in horror, he felt his body grow heavy, and knew that his life was passing quickly, but he didn't want to die yet, he didn't deserve to die here, to die so badly.

At this moment, the boy, whose hand held the knife without the slightest tremble, lifted the huge chapel above his head and slashed it vertically at the tall ylan soldier, and the chapel sank deep into the soldier's skull and shattered*, so that the soldier fell on the spot and lost his breath.

Qin'er staggered to her sister's side, hugged her sister's body, cried loudly, and shook her sister's arm vigorously, but her sister never responded, with big eyes open, and she couldn't blink a blind eye.

For a little girl who is only ten years old, the experience of these few days is enough to make her break down in despair, and she will forever and forever cut a wound in the girl's heart that will never heal.

Qin'er was tired of crying, and after tidying up her sister's clothes, she curled up beside her sister, her body trembled, her eyes closed, and she whispered: "Just let me die like this, so that my family should be able to reunite in the world over there." There is a great father, a virtuous mother, a mischievous brother and a gentle sister in the world. Qin'er's world is so cold, Qin'er is afraid of the cold, and Qin'er is the only one, I'm so scared, Mom and Dad, I'm so scared. ”

Tears flowed down again, and Qin'er hugged her sister's body in vain, sobbing, trembling, and despairing.

"That, you... Do you want to come with me?" an unfamiliar voice came from Qin'er's side, a little childish, a little nervous.

Qin'er slowly opened her swollen eyes and saw a boy slightly older than herself, walking briskly, it was the boy who had just killed the soldier, and the boy had already hidden the soldier's body in the house.

The boy approached, crouched beside her, and held out a hand toward her.

The boy probably didn't think Qin'er heard, so he said again: "Well, don't be afraid, I mean if you want to come with me, I'll take you to a safe place." “

"Why did you save me, my whole family is dead, can't you let me die too!" Qin'er no longer had the strength to speak loudly, otherwise she would have scolded the nosy boy now.

"That, don't be confused, I'm also an orphan, I understand your mood now, but I know that the dead must still want to come back to life, you are a big living person, don't think about dying. I know you're sad now, but no matter what, you have to get through this time, I can accompany you, don't be afraid, I'll be your brother in the future, okay, you won't be alone. ”

"I don't want you to be my brother, I want my own brother!" Qin'er cried again, whimpering.

The boy saw that he had cried the little girl in front of him again, and he didn't know what to do, seeing Qin'er moving and distancing himself from the boy a little bit, he grabbed his hair hard, and said regardless of it: "Your relatives only hope that you can live well, and are willing to pay any price to let you live, in this case, although you are in pain now, but for the sake of those who love you, please live strongly!" The boy closed his eyes and shouted, his face flushed.

Qin'er continued to cry, but it seemed to be a little different. The boy held on to his last hope and looked at the girl who was holding her back to him and her sister's corpse.

The sunlight seemed to have finally broken through the blockade of the gunsmoke, and a ray of sunlight shone directly into the courtyard of Qin'er's house, like a beam of shining gold thread, which not only illuminated the yard, but also illuminated the boy's appearance.

Although the boy's face was not clean, he had a pair of clear and transparent eyes, and he was looking at Qin'er sincerely, with concern and warmth in his eyes.

Qin'er suddenly felt that the boy in front of him gave him a trace of family-like warmth, and she asked with a crying voice, "You won't die in the future, right?"

The boy was stunned for a moment, then nodded confidently, "Well, I won't die in the future." ”

Qin'er also nodded very seriously, and then timidly reached out to the boy's hand, and then the boy held her hard first, Qin'er felt really warm.

Because of fright and fatigue, Qin'er found that it was difficult to stand up independently, and her whole body was trembling, the boy didn't laugh, just turned around, carried her under Qin'er's exclamation, and said to another very strong young man looking at the door: "Chen Shouli, let's go!"

"Okay, boss!"

Qin'er lay on the boy's back, put her hands around the boy's neck, rested her head on his shoulder, and whispered, "That, what's your name?"

"My name is Wang Lin, what about you?"

"My name is Zheng Qin'er. ”

The boy who was carrying her in front of him nodded slightly, and continued to walk forward, or walked in a hurry, sweating slightly on his forehead.

Jean kindly wiped his sleeve for him, and the boy did not speak, but his steps suddenly became a little hurried.

After a while, the little girl's eyes were a little red again

"Wang Lin, how should I live in the future?" asked Zheng Qin'er, who was crying.

"Huh?"

"I said, how will I live in the future?" Zheng Qin'er put snot and tears on Wang Lin's shoulders and sobbed.

Before Wang Lin could speak, Chen Shouli, who was following behind, said quietly: "How will you live in the future? ”

Qin'er cried even louder, and then said: "But I don't know anything, only crying nose"

Wang Lin smiled silently, and said softly to the girl on his back: "No matter what, you have to live worthy of your tears!"

Qin'er didn't speak, and gradually quieted down on Wang Lin's back.

After walking for a while, Zheng Qin'er suddenly said to Wang Lin: "Wang Lin!"

"What's wrong?"

Zheng Qin'er hugged Wang Lin's neck hard and said, "You really won't die, right?"

"Well, it won't"

"You're not going to die!"

"Hmm!"

"You can't die!"

"Good"

"That girl will recognize you as a brother for the time being!"

"Good"

"You're my last relative!"

"Hmm"

"In the future, you will protect me like Daddy!"

"Good"

"In the future, you have to spoil me like a brother!"

"Good"

"You'll have to let me do everything in the future!"

"Good"

"Then you will marry me too!"

"Good"

Wang Lin paused, "What?"

"So we can be together forever, talk about it!"

Qin'er, who hadn't laughed for an unknown amount of time, finally broke into tears for the first time, and looked at the golden mountain road in front of her, the girl finally let down all her guard, rested her head on the boy's shoulder, and slept peacefully.

The boy with the girl on his back felt the sound of steady breathing behind him, slowed down his pace and speed, and walked steadily into the mountain step by step.

Qin'er's world was originally bright and full of hope, she had a happy home, there were mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters at home, the war five years ago destroyed the little girl's world, in that world was about to fall apart, collapse and destruction, it was Wang Lin's appearance, carrying her, supporting her world, making her feel that even if all her relatives are gone, there are people to rely on, and she can live happily.

Qin'er has always been the most fragile and strongest girl, as long as Wang Lin is there, she feels that there is nothing difficult in this world, even if there is, there is Wang Lin to help him bear it, and when Wang Lin is not there, for Qin'er, her world is gone.

Exquisite dice An red beans, into the bone lovesickness does not know. Since then, in the eyes of the little girl, there is only Wang Lin, Wang Lin is all in her timid and humble but extremely cherished little world, they are orphans and lonely, but when the two of them are together, Qin'er feels that she has the whole world.

And now, once again, fate seems to be dramatically about shattering the world that Qin has worked so hard to maintain.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

In the camp of the broken mountain, Cao Yuanpeng stood in the camp tent, his face was full of iron, and in the center of the big tent sat a young man with a bandage on his stomach, but it seemed that this young man wanted to show his injuries and deliberately wore his clothes open.

This person is none other than Xie An.

Xie An sat in Cao Yuanpeng's position at this time, crossed Erlang's legs, and said with the appearance of a second ancestor: "Cao Yuanpeng, 100,000 standard weapons, don't think about it, the price negotiated in the previous letter, I thought, at most 50,000 pieces." ”

Lu Yao's face was full of anger, and he pointed at Xie An and said, "How can you go back on your word, don't think that your Xie family has a great fortune and a great cause, so you can wantonly squeeze our Xixia border army!"

Xie An shook Erlang's legs and said with a smile: "Then I'm sorry, Xie family, I have the final say." Either take double the money, or grandpa I'll get out of here now, and make sure that it doesn't get in the way of landing Yao Lu ginseng. Of course, you don't want weapons."

Cao Yuanpeng said coldly: "Gongzi Xie, don't you feel that you have insulted the family style of your Xie family in Kyoto?"

Xie An was straightforward, "Hey, Marshal Cao is too much in charge, why should I let me let go of my good days and think about those bad things about the glorious lintel?"

Lu Yao, who had a hot temper, shouted: "The old guys of the Xie family are blind, choose you to be the head of the Xie family!"

Xie An was stunned, then stood up from Cao Yuanpeng's big seat and looked at Lu Yao coldly.

Cao Yuanpeng was silent for a moment, and said to Lu Yao: "Lu Yao, apologize to Gongzi Xie." ”

"Marshal!"

"Apologies!"

Lu Yao snorted angrily and reluctantly said to Xie An: "Rude!"

Xie An walked straight in front of Lu Yao, looking at each other, Xie An did not have the slightest fear in his eyes, and laughed angrily: "Why did I become the head of the family, it is thanks to you!"

"What do you mean!"

"The previous head of the family is my own brother, called Xie Shi. ”

Lu Yao was shocked, and his face was shocked.

Xie An walked towards the outside of the tent, and the words came: "Just die in your border army, how you died, you know." Cao Yuanpeng, those 100,000 standard weapons were used by our Xie family to commemorate my brother, so do you say you can buy them or not?"

Cao Yuanpeng, who stayed in the tent, suddenly sighed and said to Lu Yao, "Go to the treasury and take out twice the gold bars." ”

Lu Yao said bitterly: "Obey, marshal." ”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

A tent in the camp of the Broken Mountain,

Wang Lin was lying on a large bed, covered in bandages, still unconscious.

In front of the bed stood the great Confucian Kong Mengru, who was sighing vigorously.

Cao Yuanpeng appeared in the tent unconsciously, walked to the side of the Great Confucian and said: "Since he worships you as a teacher, why don't you meet him directly and explain the reason, so that you can protect him and help him rise, something as lucky as yesterday will not happen every time." ”

Kong Mengru sighed: "I have also thought about it, but if this child is allowed to understand the life he has to face in advance, I don't know if he has the courage to face it, I dare not fight this bet." ”

Cao Yuanpeng looked at Wang Lin carefully for the first time, glanced up and down twice, and said, "Can he really become your Confucian revival person?" His temperament is good, but in terms of qualifications, he is far inferior to your disciple who has become a half-saint. ”

Kong Mengru looked at Wang Lin kindly, and said gently: "Compared with the number of Buddhas and Heavenly Kings of the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, my Confucianism has only produced three great sages: Confucius Ancestor, my teacher Yasheng, and my disciple Half Sage. This is too little, I have been thinking about it for thousands of years, and finally found that the root cause is that my Confucian teachings are too limited by Confucius, follow the path of Confucius, walk out of a sub-sage, rely on the qualifications against the sky, squeeze out a semi-sage on this road, but after all, it is not my own way, and then it is someone else's, I can't go my own way, and the great sages of Confucianism are naturally worse than the other. ”

"This is the reason why you don't enter the Heavenly Dao Realm and become holy?" Cao Yuanpeng looked at Kong Mengru.

"One of the reasons is just that, so I can tell you directly, Wang Lin, his important task is not only to revive Confucianism, but also to open up new paths for Confucianism. And along the way, it will never be peaceful, blood and sacrifice will always be by his side, which is why I will acquiesce to the toad to hand over his inheritance to Wang Lin. ”

"Old master, Wang Lin should hate you in the future, right?" Cao Yuanpeng sighed.

Kong Mengru smiled faintly: "Then it is very important, I hate it very much in the world, and I will wait for him at the end of the world." As he spoke, he disappeared.

Cao Yuanpeng looked at Wang Lin carefully, and for some reason thought of his own apprentice, a long-lost smile appeared on his serious face, and he said with some relief: "Those who stir up the storm in the future belong to the next generation after all." "After all, it's gone.
