Master of the rivers and lakes

Chapter 14 Don't ask, don't watch, don't feel sad

"Why worry? There will be a way for the car to reach the mountain, not to mention me and us."

Gu Zhen didn't know whether Wen Qing noticed his temporary change of words, but it seemed that he didn't notice.

"I don't know if it's right to involve you in this matter." Wen Qing felt a little disappointed.

"You can't say that. We did it voluntarily. Miss Wen, you pay and we contribute. Don't mind."

Wen Qing did not answer Gu Zhen's words, but fell silent. Gu Zhen didn't know what to say for a while.

The sound of the river flowing slowly into the distance was particularly clear in this quiet night. One of them stared at the river, and the other looked up at the sky. Gu Zhen coughed lightly, wanting to say something to break the current silence. Awkward.

"I say."

"you know"

The two people started at the same time, and then found that the other party also had something to say, so they motioned for the other party to speak first.

But in this situation, the two of them didn't speak, and then they fell into a situation where they didn't know what to say. After a while, the evening wind blew up a little hurriedly. Gu Zhen touched his nose, turned his head to look at the warmth and said, "You just wanted to say what?"

Wen Qing was no longer silent, picked up his sword, got up and walked to the stones by the river, letting the splash of the river soak his shoes and socks.

"Do you know, my mother died early, and she died of dystocia when she gave birth to me. My elder brother told my father that he wanted to keep the older one, but my mother weakly warned my father that if he kept her, she would hate him for the rest of his life, so My mother was gone and I was born.

No matter how much trouble I caused since I was a child, my father would settle it for me, and my eldest brother would always stand up for me, so I lived a very free and willful life.

My father and elder brother are supporting me at home, so I don't need to worry about anything.You only need to think about where to play today, what clothes to wear tomorrow, and what cakes to eat the day after tomorrow, even martial arts are neglected.

When I was 14 years old, my father went on a escort trip, but in the end he lost the escort, was injured, and ended up with hidden diseases.From then on, Changfeng Escort Agency began to deteriorate day by day.

During those days, I watched my elder brother go out in the morning and return drunk at night. I didn't understand my elder brother's depravity. I followed him.

I saw him posting money to invite those sons to drink, just to let them go to the Changfeng Escort. My father's temper is also getting worse. He always gets angry with the people in the Escort because of some small things, and he treats me and my elder brother a lot more. scold.

Five years later, the eldest brother and father still did not give up, but the Changfeng Escort still faded out of people's sight.

The Qi family... The Qi family and our Wen family have long been feuds. That day when the Qi family came to our door, my father was going to shoot it out, but the Qi family told my father that they had a dart worth 1 taels of silver and needed our Changfeng Escort. In the future, enduring the grievances of the world feud, we took over the dart.

That night, the father and elder brother drank happily and got very drunk, but the next day they went to the ancestral hall and knelt for a day.

We all know that the Qi family is not so kind, but my father still took it, because this is an opportunity to bring Changfeng Escort back to life. My father told me that even if there is a glass of wine with dove poison in front of him, he will drink it. .

After my father left, I was very uneasy until I heard the news that they were all dead. At that moment, I felt that the sky was falling.

I don't know how I survived the past few days, but I always remember what my father and elder brother said that day when they were drunk, and I always remember that they went to the ancestral hall to kneel for a day.

I don't know if it's right for me to do this, but I know my father wants me to do it.

Maybe, maybe the process is the same, but the children of the Wen family will not shrink back because of danger. If they retreat, the Changfeng Escort Bureau will never turn around, never.

And I don't know if I can avenge my father, elder brother and Changfeng Escort with my own hands.

And continue to go on this dart, even if there is only a slight chance of success, as long as it succeeds, the Changfeng Escort will turn around, and father's wish will come true.

This is the result I hoped for. "

Wen Qing's tone has always been that kind of very calm, very flat tone, without any emotional fluctuations, and after speaking, he shook his head with a wry smile.

Then he suddenly pulled out his sword and vented his emotions by the river. The edge of the sword he swung cut off the reeds by the river. After venting, Wen Qing watched the broken reeds flow down the river.

"I lost my temper and made you laugh."

Gu Zhen knew that her heart was very painful, and the burden was too heavy.

After getting along these few days, Gu Zhen knew that Wen Qing was a person who didn't like to tell others everything, but liked to keep things in his heart.

But now that she has said so much to Gu Zhen, what does it mean? It means that she can't hold it in anymore, the pressure she is under is too great, and she needs someone to talk to.

Gu Zhen didn't lie down anymore, but sat up, looking at Wen Qing's side face standing by the river, I don't know why Gu Zhen suddenly felt that she was just a girl, but she needed to bear a lot of pressure.

Gu Zhen shook his head lightly and said: "I understand you, I used to have a happy family and a woman I loved. But one day I lost everything and lived alone in this world that didn't belong to me."

"Where is your hometown?" Wen Qing turned and looked at Gu Zhen.She didn't know what Gu Zhen meant by 'living alone in this world that doesn't belong to her', she was very curious.

Gu Zhen got up and faced the river, shook his head, threw the stone in his hand into the river forcefully and said: "My hometown is where my heart is at ease."

Wen Qing looked at the open-mindedness of the people beside him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Gu Zhen looked back and saw Wen Qing's expression, and said: "There are many unsatisfactory things in life, and your lord probably doesn't want to see Miss Wen like you.

Now that you have chosen a path, then go on firmly. No matter what ghosts and monsters he is, I will protect you and help you get revenge. "

Wen Qing looked at Gu Zhen's serious face, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was a little fuzzy, but when Wen Qing was still thinking about the meaning of Gu Zhen's last sentence, Gu Zhen went on to say: "I am at ease. "

Wen Qing no longer looked at Gu Zhen, but moved his eyes elsewhere, but nodded at what Gu Zhen said, and then said 'thank you' in a low and imperceptible voice.

Wen Qing didn't know if Gu Zhen heard it or not, but Gu Zhen smiled and sat back on the ground and said, "You're in a bad mood, why don't I teach you how to sing."

After hearing Gu Zhen's words, Wen Qing also sat down, looked at Gu Zhen's side face and said, "Mr. Gu can still sing?"

Gu Zhen nodded and said: "It may be a little different from the song Miss Wen recognizes."

Then Gu Zhen cleared his throat and sang:
"Crying in a low voice, Baixue meets Yangchun, I send you away to ignorant bosom friends.

The high platform stands alone and looks up, the sky is desolate and the universe is open. "

Gu Zhen didn't know why he blurted out and sang this song "Farewell to You", but when Gu Zhen had just sang a few lines and was thinking about why he sang this, Wen Qing said: "Mr. Gu's tune is unusual. "

Gu Zhen looked at the starry sky, smiled softly and said, "It sounds good."

Wen Qing nodded, and Gu Zhen continued to sing with a smile:

"Chariots and horses run wild, geese fly, spring and autumn are impermanent.

Quiet and silent, falling into a dark country, what year and what month is wasted.

Don't ask, don't watch, don't feel melancholy, the mountains, rocks, forests and trees are all the same. "

Lu Dao, who was drinking in the room, opened the window and looked at the river. He couldn't see anything vaguely and muttered, "I wonder if Brother Gu is singing. The singing is really ugly."

However, Zhou Zhuang, who was in the same room with him, was already sound asleep, turned over and talked in his sleep: "Where is the little thief who is listening to the devil's voice, and I will kill you Grandpa Zhou."

And Wen Qing by the river listened to Gu Zhen's song and looked at the passing river, wondering what was going on in his heart.

At this time, Gu Zhen had already sang to the end.Suddenly he stood up and sang the last line loudly: "Don't ask, don't watch, don't feel melancholy, the mountains, rocks, forests and trees are all the same."

After singing, the corners of Gu Zhen's eyes were moist for some reason. He didn't want to be seen by Wen Qing, but he saw Wen Qing staring at him, so Gu Zhen wiped the corners of his eyes with his hands and said, "This damn place is actually quite windy and sandy at night. of."

Wen Qing stood up and handed his handkerchief to Gu Zhen, seeing that Gu Zhen hadn't taken it, so he said, "It's quite big."

After being stunned for a while, Gu Zhen took the handkerchief and didn't say much, falling into the situation of not knowing what to say again.

Fortunately, it was getting cooler at night, and after standing for a while, the two said goodbye to each other and left the river.

The breeze gradually picked up, wrinkled the river water, bent the reeds, and heard the sound of leaves in the distance, the wind was quite strong.
