Chapter Nine: The Departure of the Iraqi People (Part II)
This side hall is paved with rough and clean wooden boards, and a huge word "sword" is written on the snow-white wall, which is full of domineering and uninhibited brushwork, and there is not a single stain on the wall. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 There are only a few chairs and a table in the middle of the info hall, and there is a set of quaint tea sets on the table, which has exuded a faint tea fragrance without making tea, and it is also the only furniture in the hall, which is simple and does not feel a little home. Suddenly, the small door of the fine house opened, and Liu Shaoqing, who was dressed in white and immaculate, walked out with his hands in his hands. Luo Tianchu got up and said, "Master Liu, has always been good?" Liu Shaoqing looked at him expressionlessly, and said: "You and I have cut off the robe, what are you doing here?" Luo Tianchu said: "The robe can be cut, but the righteousness may not be broken, otherwise Brother Liu will not see me." ”
Liu Shaoqing's eyes were as cold as ice, and he said lightly: "How do you know that I didn't see you to kill you?" Luo Tianchu sighed: "Because Brother Liu has no murderous aura." Liu Shaoqing suddenly said sharply: "Do you know how deeply you hurt Xue'er! If she hadn't forced me to swear not to trouble you, I would have let you go!" Luo Tianchu lowered his head and said, "Yes, she... Is she okay?" Liu Shaoqing smiled contemptuously and said, "Do you still have the face to ask?" Luo Tianchu said ashamedly: "I'm ashamed of Xue'er, I came this time specifically to make amends to her, I don't ask her to forgive me, but I must apologize to her in person." Liu Shaoqing said: "Do you think that apologizing can comfort the conscience of being eaten by dogs? I just won't let you get your wish, I'm Xue'er's husband, let you not see what I said." Luo Tianchu said: "What should I do to allow Xue'er to see me?" Liu Shaoqing sneered: "Any price?" Luo Tianchu said firmly: "Any price." Liu Shaoqing said: "What if I want your life?" Luo Tianchu said without hesitation: "Yes, but please ask the owner to give me a three-month leniency, and when I come back from Lin'an, I will be killed, and I will never break my word." Liu Shaoqing said curiously: "What are you doing in Lin'an?" Luo Tianchu said: "Save Yue Fei." ”
Liu Shaoqing's expression changed, he was silent for a while, and said, "I don't want your life, I will definitely do what I promised Xue'er." Now she is listening to us in that ashram, and if you really want to see her, kneel over there. Luo Tianchu didn't think about it, he knelt directly on his knees, and slowly moved towards the Jingshe with his knees alternately. The man has gold under his knees, such as Luo Tianchu's previous arrogance, when did he kneel to others, his actions made Liu Shaoqing also taken aback, looking at the vicissitudes of life and poor old friends, the dignified overlord of Guanzhong, full of pride, unruly, but in order to save himself, Luo Tianchu, who went to complete the appointment of Yan Li, walked on his knees so humbly, and he didn't feel good in his heart, but Luo Tianchu had let Ling Xue'er live up too much, how could he not be worthy of seeing her.
I finally knelt down and walked to the door of the house, the door was empty, and the smell of sandalwood wafted faintly, and there was no sound quietly. Liu Shaoqing stood behind him and said, "You go in." Luo Tianchu gently pushed open the door, and the scene inside made him tremble as if he had been hit by five thunderbolts, and he sat down on the ground, unable to say a word for a long time. It turned out that the fine house was actually a mourning hall, and the tablet enshrined in the middle of the incense case was written "the spiritual seat of the beloved wife Xue'er", the cigarette curled, the house was like a dream, looking at the dark tablet, Luo Tianchu only felt dizzy, his chest was dull, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and then he howled and cried, knelt down in front of the incense case and pounded his head on the ground, "dong dong" sounded. Liu Shaoqing waited with tears in his eyes to cry before he said slowly: "Xue'er came to the villa with me after leaving in a bad mood, and has been waiting for you to pick her up, but you have never shown up, the engagement between the two of us is actually to provoke you to come, and you still haven't come, and finally Xue'er finally agreed to marry me in a fit of anger, the days of marriage are the happiest in Liu's life, and the gift I gave to Xue'er is my sword, and I don't take a sword anymore, I just want to live a good life and make Xue'er happy." After we got married, we still treated each other politely and never slept together, but it was enough for Liu, as long as I could see Xue'er every day, it was my greatest happiness. Luo Tianchu stopped crying, listened quietly, and asked hoarsely, "How did Xue'er die?"
Liu Shaoqing snorted coldly and said: "Although Xue'er is my wife, I know that she only has you in her heart, she is smiling on the surface, but she is depressed in her heart, I have been trying to find a way to make her forget you, before that, I will not touch a hair of her, and I will never take advantage of others." At that time, Zhu Yushi's letter arrived, saying that you had an internal injury, the seven orifices were bleeding, and your life and death were unknown after being sent to Master Huishan for treatment, and Huishan and you disappeared overnight, and you did not know where to go. Xue'er took the letter and read it, cried for three days and three nights, I had to go to you, I said that the road is far away, I just go to find it myself, but she insisted on going with her, I had to agree, and took her to search the mountains in Guanzhong for a year, but I still can't find you, Xue'er worked hard all day, haggard, died of illness on the way to find you, and she was still a virgin until death, she was born as your person, and died as your ghost, and she didn't do anything sorry for you, so you kneeled in and never did it. ”
Luo Tianchu listened with tears in his eyes, and said sadly: "I really want to exchange my cheap life for Xue'er, I really want to... I really want to... As he spoke, he wept bitterly. Liu Shaoqing said: "Do you know Xue'er's last words to you before she died?" Luo Tianchu turned his head and said, "What?" Liu Shaoqing choked up: "She let you live well, don't think about it." Luo Tianchu's heart was about to break, his chest was depressed, his breathing was not smooth, he really wanted to scream and hurt such a good woman, how could he not make him heartbroken, and regret it, now he doesn't even have a chance to see the last side, and the bitter water in his stomach has nowhere to pour.
Liu Shaoqing said: "You don't have to expect Xue'er to forgive you, because she never hated you at all." If you are willing to come and meet, Xue'er will be pleased in the spirit of heaven, and now you can go. Luo Tianchu said: "Then can I come to worship Xue'er often?" Liu Shaoqing said: "No, you don't care about the living, why do you care about the dead? Luo Tianchu bowed three more times in front of the spirit, got up and walked out of the house, closed the door, and said: "Brother Liu blames me for being grateful for letting me get my wish this time, and I dare not ask for any more extravagance, so I will leave." Liu Shaoqing looked at his back and suddenly said, "Wait a minute." Luo Tianchu turned around and said, "Brother Liu, what other instructions?" Liu Shaoqing looked at him for a while, sighed, and said, "Sit down." ”
Luo Tianchu was flattered, and after the two sat down, Liu Shaoqing was silent for a while before saying, "If it weren't for the fact that I had vowed not to leave Penglai Island for the rest of my life, I would have been willing to accompany you to save Yue Fei." (To be continued.) )
