Chapter 10: A Hundred Horsemen
When Li Changan came to Yushan again, it was already the solar term in May, and he walked to the depths of Yushan, unlike usual, this time Guan Wu was not sitting in front of his door.
Slightly curious, he stepped forward and pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and with the creak of sour teeth, the sound of the room also came out.
"Is the stinky boy here? Half-lying on the bed, Guan Wu's face was pale, and the whole person was a little unable to breathe, and he struggled to sit up when he heard the sound of the door opening.
"Can't you just talk well? Unable to hear the joy, anger and sorrow in a word, Li Changan stepped forward and helped Guan Wu sit up.
Seeing Li Changan coming, Guan Wu's expression was much better, and he didn't pay attention to Li Changan's words at all, and said with a smile: "I still have a fat duck on the stove, go and help me pluck the feathers." ”
Obviously, he didn't expect that there was still a duck hidden in this stove, Li Changan walked over to take a look, where is there still a bit of a duck, it is all rotten, the rancid smell is covered by the pot lid and cannot be smelled, this opening is simply not able to treat people.
"I'll go, Lao Guan, you've been leaving this duck for a few days, can you still eat it!"
The smell of rancid smell came down the air into Guan Wu's nose, and this cheeky old Guan Wu all his life turned red in the end.
"Who knows when your kid will come, wait to eat your duck, I won't live until then. ”
Listening to the old man's angry voice, Li Changan laughed, and said continuously: "You can eat it, you can eat it, don't you see that I brought it to you, but it's okay, you pluck the feathers and I'll cook the duck." ”
"You brought the duck?!Okay, okay, I'll pull it out!" There is wine and meat to talk about, hearing that Li Changan brought the duck, Guan Wu hurriedly asked him to carry himself out of the room, this rotten duck smell is really unbearable for Lord Yama.
Sitting at the gate of the courtyard, Guan Wu touched the fat duck brought by Li Changan, plucked the feathers and kept chanting in his mouth: "Your kid is not small, I still remember that such a fat osmanthus duck was only eaten once the night before the capture of Daming Palace, and I didn't have this mouth blessing later, and I didn't think that I would have the opportunity to eat it once before I died." ”
didn't speak, lowered his head and boiled the water, the hair was plucked, the water was also boiled, and it didn't take long for a fragrance to waft out, sitting in front of the stone pier, nibbling on the greasy duck leg in his mouth, Li Changan said: "I'm leaving." ”
"Let's go, let's go, just stay with the ducks. didn't care about Li Changan's words, Guan Wu was still holding the duck leg in his hand and eating a greasy mouthful.
"Leave Chang'an. He stopped the movement in his mouth and said again, causing Guan Wu to ignore the duck leg in his hand.
"Leaving again? I remember that you didn't come the year before last, otherwise you would have gone out. ”
Hmm, he ate the duck leg in his hand again, and his voice was a little vague: "This time is different from the year before." ”
"There are things that are different, they are all going out, and young people are better to break through more, and it is better to break through more. ”
I don't know why, hearing the news that Li Changan was leaving, Guan Wu didn't seem to have much appetite, threw the remaining half of the duck leg into the bowl, and licked his hands.
was silent for a while, and finally Guan Wu spoke: "Stinky boy, I don't know why you went out, and I don't know which kid you are, but there are some things you should know, and it doesn't matter if I tell you." ”
"In my life, my father died at the age of ten, and I planted the land in the village for three years, and then His Majesty recruited troops, followed His Majesty to the Eastern Expedition to the North, fought the Great Liang, fought the Turks, killed Tuyuhun, this life is also worth it, and then I told me that Your Majesty still needs me, let me live in this jade mountain, I haven't said anything, don't want military merits, the girl who wants to marry me doesn't want it, and the little ant I picked up in Dasui lives in this jade mountain, I still remember that the lady stood at the door of my house and scolded me for being a bad seed, I didn't reply, always thinking about helping Your Majesty do things to be worthy of this Tang Dynasty scolded me and I also admitted, delayed the girl's life, I'm sorry for the family, it should be. ”
Speaking of this, Guan Wu paused, rubbed his palms, and looked indescribably uncomfortable, but he didn't find that Li Changan, who was sitting on the side, had already cried silently.
"But ah, the little ant disappeared later, at that time I was really sorry, I was the granddaughter in my life, all said that it was picked up, but it was the same as my own granddaughter, I still remember saying that I wanted to save a dowry for her, I gave her the dowry has not been saved, but why is it gone, at that time, I don't know what to think about rushed into the nest of the West Bridge, people didn't find themselves, but they became the virtue they are now, I feel sorry for the Tang Dynasty, and I'm sorry for the little ant who died, but I don't know how, and I didn't die. ”
A little thirsty, he picked up the drunken flower carving on the side and took a sip, Guan Wu laughed loudly.
"Others say that I am stupid, I am stupid! But it doesn't mean that I don't understand, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World went down to wash the filthy people's nest, that is what idle eggs will do, my Lao Guan knows that His Majesty has not forgotten me, I am not sorry for Datang in this life, but I am sorry for the little granddaughter I picked up, stinky boy, you are an understanding person, can you tell me, did I do the right thing. ”
The voice was a little trembling, Guan Wu's hand kept groping, wanting to touch Li Changan's body, but in the end he touched a back that was shaking, at this moment Li Changan bowed his body and didn't want to cry, but the tears kept falling from his eyes, covering his mouth, his whole body kept shaking, and his voice was choked and speechless.
His hand stiffened for a moment, and then patted Li Changan's back, and the whole person leaned against the table and looked up at the sky, with no eyeballs in his empty eyes, but he looked straight at the sky.
"My Lao Guan can only go so far, and that's the only thing I can do for Datang, stinky boy, my Lao Guan doesn't have any requirements, remember for me that it's not easy to beat down this Datang, we old guys have got it for you, if you lose it for me again, don't come underground to see us!"
"I don't know if Your Majesty will blame me for what happened at the beginning, a soldier who doesn't obey military orders is not a good soldier. ”
At this time, Li Changan suddenly stood up, his expression was much calmer, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and came to Guan Wu's ear and whispered.
"I won't blame you, not only Your Majesty, but Datang won't blame you either, Lao Guan, I, Li Changan, have lied to you all my life, and now I'll tell you a true thing, little ant, she is in my house, and she is still my personal maid. ”
After speaking, he patted Guan Wu on the shoulder, Li Changan left the dilapidated house, leaving the sluggish Guan Wu to sit there alone.
"Your Highness, hahaha, yes, yes, I've been deceiving people all my life, and I didn't expect that in the end, the eagle was pecked by the eagle, the little ant followed you, and the Tang Dynasty followed you......"
It was like the last breath of relaxation, and after a word, there was no longer any sound in the whole courtyard.
100 riding dragons, a total of 18,453 people, Zhenguan 74 years, 13,422 people left.
In the depths of the Jade Mountain, the old soldiers of the hundred horsemen closed their eyes.
