Chapter 56
When the general woke up again, the black cloth on his eyes had been removed, and a slightly emaciated woman with a covered face saw him wake up, handed him a glass of water, and he twisted her head to the side, and the woman was like a silent puppet, and when she saw that he didn't drink, she put down the cup, and watched over him so upright and silently.
The general knew that he was still valuable to them, and he would definitely not let him go like that, he wanted to go like that, but when he thought of the seriously ill lady and young child at home, his heart could not make a decision, but now, if he does not die, what can he do?
The twilight is like sediment suspended in a turbid current, and it gradually settles down when it is still. The sun sets in the west, people return, birds return to the forest, and the moving universe is still, so the twilight begins to precipitate. Just like the sedimentation of sand, there is a clear boundary, and the heavy turbidity is deposited at the bottom of the valley and at the foot of the mountain, so it is dark first.
The thick clouds are as heavy as mountains, and the distant mountains are as light as clouds. Sometimes the wind blows away, and the pines and firs, bamboos and thousands of miscellaneous trees that are full of mountains and mountains will rise and fall, rolling up a wave of rolling black waves, slapping against the eternal cliffs.
A distant, brisk flute sound, echoing in the deep mountains, a slender man in a blue robe, is playing the flute, he stands very tall, the twilight is vast, the evening breeze blows, the autumn leaves of the mountain, drifting with the wind to the ground, in the almost untouched grass path, the butterfly's colorful wings flying, and there is a rare red dragonfly elsewhere.
A masked man in a black silk tights, angry, walked up to the piper and said viciously: "That dead wolf, still doesn't speak, doesn't eat or drink, only when he mentions his wife, he will be stunned, drink a few sips of water, I said simply we use all eighteen means, not afraid that he will not recruit." ”
The piper smiled, was silent for a while, and said leisurely: "The soldier who surrenders without a fight, he must be convinced to do things, and he is willing to do it, that thing is not a mortal thing, there are still a lot of tricks in it, don't be too reckless, since he is a general, he can't be subdued by force." ”
Seeing that the man in black seemed to be a little unconvinced, he smiled, took out a miniature bamboo slip, handed it to the man in black, and said warmly: "This matter can be big, small, and time-consuming, I have a more important matter here, you go and help me handle it." ”
The man in black took the bamboo slip, showing a sense of frustration that he was being despised by others, and the piper patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "When this matter is done, I will give you the tea." ”
The man in black originally looked depressed, but as soon as he heard the tea, his nerves suddenly became excited, and the words popped out involuntarily: "Really give me the tea"
The piper, looking at the mountains, only smiled silently, and the man in black saw his expression, and immediately made a military order to the piper: "I will not live up to the expectations of the sect leader, and I will definitely succeed and handle this matter well." ”
The piper picked up the man in black, with autumn leaves on his body, still smiling, and said, "Then I'll just wait for your good news." ”
After speaking, he began to play the song again, and the beautiful butterflies fluttered along the music, and on the filigree, among the branches and leaves, flocks of colorful butterflies fluttered everywhere in the wind, some of them circled and lingered in the trees, and some of them went forward with the departing man in black.
The sound of the flute is very beautiful, as if the mountains are fascinated, and they are all quietly listening to his flute.
The night was slowly falling, the mountain wind was whining, but the flute still did not stop, what was he going to do, or what was he waiting for?
