"Zhuge ...... Uh, Prime Minister ......" Qin Ke just said a few words, and Gao Changgong, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes.

It was indeed Qin Ke's familiar face, with facial features very similar to his master, a pair of eyes full of worry and wisdom, a wide Confucian robe in the cloak made his tall figure even more majestic, and the cyan scarf spread out with the wind, with a bit of dusty taste.

He stepped over the high threshold, as if because he saw Qin Ke and showed a relieved smile.

However, at this moment, Gao Changgong had already shouted angrily at Zhuge Wanling, and his voice was loud as if a thunderbolt exploded in the temple: "What are you going to do! Go back! I have already said this matter last time, you don't want to mix with it, is it so difficult to listen to me once? Are you having a bad brain or have you drunk too much?"

Qin Ke was shocked by this angry shout, and looked at Gao Changgong with a strange expression, a little puzzled why this person was suddenly so angry.

Could it be because he cares about Zhuge Wanling's body and doesn't want him to come thousands of miles away to wear out? But this attitude is a little different.

That's right...... How did Zhuge Wanling find this place? Qin Ke suddenly realized the problem, to know that he found this place, it all depended on Xiao Hei's superhuman intuition, and Zhuge Wanling was just an ordinary person, how could he ......

No.

An ordinary person walking in the pouring rain, but covered in only cloth shoes stained with rainwater, I am afraid that only a fool would think this is very reasonable.

"You've helped me a lot, but there are some things I can't push you to do. Zhuge Wanling was not angry because of Gao Changgong's angry scolding, but comforted gently, "What's more, this should have been my business." ”

Gao Changgong tried hard to support his body, but he couldn't move because of the injuries on his body, like a weak child.

But even so, he still has to issue his own accusation against Zhuge Wanling: "Pedantic. If Jing Wu collapses because of your selfishness, then you should regret it! Those subordinates and even the people who believe in you should regret it!"

Zhuge Wanling didn't answer, but just took off the cloak on his body to protect him from the cold, and silently draped it on Gao Changgong's body, covering his ragged body and giving him some warmth.

"Don't worry, I don't want to die so soon, there's still a lot of work to be done. Zhuge Wanling said softly.

He was telling the truth. And when he straightened up again and looked through Qin Ke at the blood-like red clothes in the corner, there were countless complicated emotions surging in his eyes.

In fact, Luo Fengyan had already opened his eyes, and his eyes were tightly locked on Zhuge Wanling's body, but he never made a sound.

Now the eyes of the two meet in the air, as if fire and light bloom from the darkness, everything is reversed, and in the ocean of memory, all that emerges is the past.

"Are you finally willing to come to see me?" Luo Fengxiao said coldly, "What should I call you?" Zhuge Wanling, or Zhuge Wolong?"

Qin Ke was still immersed in a kind of shock that had just been revealed, but when this real mystery was suddenly revealed at this time, his mind almost became blank with a buzz.

"Zhuge Wanling is good, since a long time ago, Zhuge Wolong has died, even if I stand in front of you now, I can only be Zhuge Wanling, the prime minister of Jing Wu, not the person before. Zhuge Wanling sighed softly.

"You're pretending to be a ghost, but it's exactly the same as before. Luo Fengyan looked at Zhuge Wanling deeply, as if he wanted to find out the shadow of the past, and finally his eyes dimmed, "If you want to kill me, now is the best time, the broken army is there, and there is nothing to say between us." ”

Although she has never talked to anyone, Luo Fengxiao must have wanted to see this person again, but the real meeting will always be unexpected.

The past has long since dissipated, and even the person in front of him is already different from the person who was wanton and publicized back then, so what can he say?

No. At least she will never admit defeat, even if she dies, she will disappear into the world with that heart of revenge, so that she can truly engrave into the hearts of others.

Because beyond that, she has nothing.

"There's nothing to say. Zhuge Wanling repeated this sentence, and then said with a bit of bitterness, "Actually, before I came, I thought about a lot of words and explanations, but I was always afraid that you didn't want to hear it." ”

Luo Fengxiao looked at him quietly.

"But if I don't say it, maybe I won't have a chance to say it again in this life. ”

"Did you know it from the beginning?" Qin Ke looked at Gao Changgong, who was leaning against the tree and looked weak, and his mood fell to the bottom.

If Qin Ke only had a few unreasonable conjectures in the past, and they were finally overturned by the self-deprecation of "how is this possible", what happened today completely turned the illusion he thought he thought before into reality.

But why, he was not happy at all?

Was it because Master had deceived him? Or was it because Master was no longer the same as he was back then, and had even become a stranger he didn't know at all?

Probably both.

recalled that Zhuge Wanling gently patted him on the shoulder just now, and said in the tone that had made him extremely warm, "Ah Ke, you take Changgong out first, I want to talk to her alone." At that time, Qin Ke could vaguely see the shadow of the year from that body.

Zhuge Wanling never called himself Ah Ke, and the master would always call him Ah Ke affectionately, and taught him to read and write and practice fishing little by little.

Gao Changgong's eyes were blank, and it could be seen that he was very tired now, and he was also very worried about the safety of the person in the old temple.

"I know some, but not much more than you know. ”

"I am about the same age as Wanling, we almost grew up together, my fathers interact with each other, the relationship is naturally good, or even more than good, when I was a child, if I went to peek at the widow taking a bath, then Wanling was often stepped on by me. ”

He chuckled: "It's funny, isn't it? After all, he was very honest at that time, and the elders said he was sensible." ”

"When I grew up, I was dissatisfied with the discipline at home, so I traveled around to increase my knowledge, and my martial arts cultivation was also smooth, and I reached the realm of a grandmaster. ”

"Then one day he sent someone to find me and asked if I could help him with a big thing. ”

At that time, he was already the core figure of the Jingchu Gang, the gang leader was seriously ill and his time was short, he was in charge of all things, he had to bow down to everything, dominate the rivers and lakes of Wu State, and the resources he mastered were even enough to create a small vassal state. ”

But he said that he did not want to just be the master of a small vassal state and enjoy all the glory and wealth, but wanted to put the entire Wu kingdom back together, establish a new Wu kingdom, and give peace to the people of this land. ”

"I was young and vigorous at that time, and I was disgusted with those outdated families, and after traveling all the way, I also knew how hard the people of Wu had been, so no matter how ridiculous such a thing was, I joined him in this crazy business, recruiting, training, buying horses, making armor, ......."

"I almost didn't pay attention to what was going on outside the window, and I was only concerned with training him, thinking that one day after training the soldiers, maybe I might be able to see the new country he was talking about. But just when I was immersed in such a thing, a letter came from the gang, saying that Wanling was seriously ill and that time was running out. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Changgong's tone suddenly became heavy: "When I arrived, I found that Wanling was still fine, and the person lying in front of the bed had a similar face to Wanling, but he was already withered and about to die. ”

"I could naturally guess that the person lying on the bed was Wanling's younger brother Wolong, but what Wanling said to me next made me unable to understand it at all. ”

He said that if he wanted to save his brother, he would have to trade his own life for it. ”

"What?" When Qin Ke heard this, he felt more and more that things were beyond imagination.

"The one surnamed Lu, remember?" Gao Changgong squinted his eyes and said with a bit of sarcasm, "It's a good idea that guy came up with, in order to save a younger brother who is already in the dead realm, he actually has to exchange his brother's flesh and blood with his younger brother, it's really the same as shit." ”

"I am naturally against such a thing, but Wanling's attitude is very resolute, and he also thinks that his wisdom is not as good as that of his younger brother, although he can develop the Jingchu Gang to such a scale, it is still out of reach to establish a new country. ”

"If he can keep his brother alive, maybe this will be possible. ”

"I didn't care about the new country at that time, I just knew that my best friend, my sibling, must not die because of such a thing. ”

"But I couldn't stop him in the end. Gao Changgong clenched his fists, and his voice was like a stone stuffed in his throat, "From now on, there is no Wanling in this world, but the Jingchu Gang has another Wanling." ”

There is no Wanling in the world, and the Jingchu Gang has another Wanling. This sentence sounded very tongue-twisting, but when Qin Ke heard this, he was speechless at all.

What is a terrible thing about a living person being quietly replaced in this world, and everyone is kept in the dark, even thinking that this person has never changed?

Gao Changgong's expression was gloomy, he lowered his head and continued: "Wanling is right, his younger brother Wolong is indeed better than him, even dozens of times better, and it is precisely because of this that the Jingchu Gang can occupy the lifeblood of the scholars in an orderly manner, and use this as a foundation to persuade Sun Zhong and these old men to set up the brand of Jing Wu." ”

"Then we blocked the Tang Kingdom, and from then on, no one could easily shake the foundation of Jingwu, even if we looked at the world, we also had a place. ”

But Wanling was buried in the ground along with a wordless stele, and no one knew his name since. ”

"I used to hate your master, but then I also understood Wanling's thoughts, maybe the reason why he was able to do things so decisively was because he was originally that kind of person. ”

"As I said, he has been obedient since he was a child, and he has always been able to do what his elders want him to do. His homework was the best of all the children in the school, his words were not even comparable to my father, who loved words, and his rhythm could make many so-called 'masters' ashamed to move the strings again. ”

And when he resigned because of Wu Guo's disappointment, he had already decided to do everything to change all this, even if he burned himself as firewood, maybe for his brother's life was simply an excuse, he just wanted this Jing Wu now, and this Jing Wu was indeed as he thought. ”

"He's just a selfish bastard. ”

Gao Changgong snorted and made a judgment, although it sounded like he was scolding, but Qin Ke only heard the thick thoughts in it, yes, how could he not miss it?

The friend who used to grow up together, play together, and work hard with ideals, the person who is not a brother is better than a brother, I don't know how many times he has appeared in a dream, and disappeared like a bubble.

"That's it, don't talk about that. Gao Changgong looked at Qin Ke with a strange expression, and said with a smile, "Do you think you know Wolong?"

"Huh?" Qin Ke didn't expect Gao Changgong to suddenly ask, and after thinking about it, he said with a low expression, "It used to be, but now I feel that I don't understand it more and more." ”

"It's right if I don't know, even if it's hard for me to really guess him. Since he became Wanling, his temperament has changed a lot, but in the past few years, I have become more and more aware that what he is pursuing is far from being obtained, so he will continue to move forward, and even this Jing Wu is just one of the stops on his way. ”

Gao Changgong said this, but sighed slightly: "It's also hard for you, in fact, there are many things that you don't have to bear." ”

At this time, Zhuge Wanling in the old temple walked out, and it didn't seem to be damaged, but he was holding the broken army with both hands, not only the part of the sword hilt, but even the part of the tip of the sword.

Qin Ke clearly heard Gao Changgong let out a sigh, and then said sarcastically: "What, you have pacified the girl? What kind of rhetoric did you say that worked so well? Let her even hand over the other half of the broken army to you? Say it and let us listen and learn?"

Zhuge Wanling could see that Gao Changgong was dissatisfied, and he was not angry, but just smiled and said, "I just made a deal with her." ”

"Deal?" Qin Ke looked at Zhuge Wanling.

"Yes, deal. Zhuge Wanling said, "I promised her that when I finished everything, I would give her this life." ”
