please come back

Before I knew it, autumn had passed and the weather gradually became colder.Although Wanzhou City is located in the south, there is a light snowfall now.The sky is dim, and thin clouds sprinkle some snow showers, hiding infinite silence.

Jiang Linyuan was wearing a thick robe hanging down to the floor, with a piece of soft sable fur wrapped around his hands, leaning on the porch, yawning lazily, enjoying the comfort of this world greedily, because he knew that in the past In a few days, they will march again.

Xia Heyu came to the barracks tent early in the morning, only to see Zhang Ling and Xiao Sha mumbling about something.When Xiaosha saw Xia Heyu coming in, she lowered her head and slipped out from the side.Xia Heyu was a little strange, always feeling that Xiaosha was very afraid of him.

"Where's Yuan Wendong?" Xia Heyu asked Zhang Ling while touching the teapot to warm his hands.

"He went to the tomb, and he should be back in a while," Zhang Ling said.

Ever since he knew that his wife and children had died in the capital, Yuan Wendong had become exceptionally taciturn.A few days ago, he set up a clothes tomb for his wife and children in a quiet place outside Wanzhou City. He said that the clothes tomb was actually empty and empty, but it was just a place for Yuan Wendong to entrust his lovesickness.

Xia Heyu sighed, thinking of Yuan Wendong's wife. He had actually met her before. She was a very cheerful and beautiful girl who loved talking and laughing. It was really sad to end up like this.

"General, when are we leaving?" Zhang Ling asked, interrupting Xia Heyu's thoughts.

Xia Heyu put his fingertips on the sheepskin map on the desk, and said, "I'm leaving in two days. How long can the food be used?"

"Less than 20 days." Zhang Ling said.

Xia Heyu nodded, and tapped a place on the map with his index finger. It was a rich place, Yizhou.But this time the march will not be easy, not to mention the cold winter, the food is not enough, and Yizhou is far away from Wanzhou, if you want to reach it, you have to climb over a mountain, and the history of Yizhou is famous Li Su is pro-party and will not surrender easily. This battle may not be easy to fight.

The cold wind blew in along the loose camp tent, making Xia Heyu tighten his clothes, and said, "There is some food left in the city, and we will take the rest away."

"Okay." Zhang Ling said, "But General, do you want Bu Chengsi to guard these three cities?"

"How is it possible." Xia Heyu took a sip of the tea ceremony, these three cities were considered the rear camp of Xia Heyu's army, and they must not be carelessly handed over to Bu Chengsi, so Xia Heyu said: "My father will stay here."

"Old general?" Zhang Ling asked in surprise.

Xia Heyu nodded. In fact, he didn't want to leave his father in Wanzhou. Jiang Linyuan told him that the old general was over [-] years old and was no longer suitable for marching. However, the old general's prestige and courage are still there. Couldn't be a better choice.

Another gust of cold wind blew into the tent, and the heavy curtain was pulled open. Yuan Wendong walked in from outside the tent, saw Xia Heyu there, and bowed and called "General".

Xia Heyu nodded, and found that Yuan Wendong's shoulders were a little slumped, but his eyes were energetic, showing a bit of ferocity of a beast.Xia Heyu knew that after this incident, Yuan Wendong was still the same Yuan Wendong he used to be, a fierce general who could hold an iron halberd and mount a war horse.

Xia Heyu picked up the teapot and poured a cup of hot tea to Yuan Wendong, "It's cold, warm yourself up first."

Yuan Wendong took the teacup and held it in his white hands with cold, without thanking him. He stared straight at the sheepskin map on the desk, as if he was going to get into it.

On the porch, after Jiang Linyuan yawned a few times, he still felt cold, so he went back to the house to light a pot of charcoal fire.Xia Heyu also wanted to ask him to go to the barracks to help out with ideas, but Jiang Linyuan was lazy and thought that Xia Heyu could handle this matter by himself, so he pushed him away, and listened to the "bibo" of the charcoal fire in the room , quite comfortable.

The room was warm, Jiang Linyuan was shrunk in his big robe, and after a while, he became a little hazy. He obviously had enough sleep last night, but today he fell asleep on the charcoal fire.

While sleeping, Jiang Linyuan could clearly see a little boy running along the bank of the river covered with tender grass in spring. When he was tired from running, he would soak his feet in the river water. A fish swam past his feet, its tail flicking and itching.

The strange thing is that Jiang Linyuan just watched from the sidelines, but he could also feel the temperature of the river water and the smooth scales of the fish.

"Yuan'er, come back, mother has cooked delicious food." A woman's voice sounded in the distance, the voice was soft and extremely pleasant.

Jiang Linyuan looked up, but couldn't see the woman's face clearly, even the figure of the little boy in front of him gradually faded away, the green grass was no longer there, the river changed its course, Jiang Linyuan's eyes were no longer the sweet and sunny spring It is not a view, but a beautifully decorated room.

The lighting in the room is dim, and the breeze blows in through the window lattice, making the curtains all over the room shake slightly.The room was obviously empty, but there were voices of human voices, um, ah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

"Jiang Xiaoer, why are you standing there, why don't you come to my bed to have fun?"

Jiang Linyuan's steps suddenly stopped, he was too familiar with this voice, it was the voice that haunted him every night for the past 13 years, the people who played with him every night.

Jiang Linyuan turned around, but almost screamed out. In the middle of the empty room stood a man who looked like a bear. It happened to be Yang Pei, but he was not a complete Yang Pei. He was missing one arm and one arm. Blood was flowing between the legs and the crotch, and a piece of intestine slowly hung down and rested on the ground.

"Jiang Xiaoer, what are you looking at? Come here, don't ask for another beating." Yang Pei said, spurting blood from his mouth as he spoke.

Jiang Linyuan stepped back step by step, his eyes terrified.Yang Pei used his only remaining leg to jump towards Jiang Linyuan. He wasn't too close, but Yang Pei jumped to him in two steps. He grabbed Jiang Linyuan's right arm and twisted it vigorously.

With the sound of "click", Jiang Linyuan knew that his arm was broken again, but this time there was no pain at all when it was broken, but a burst of cold feeling came from Jiang Linyuan's right hand. Looking at Yang Pei again, he was already lying down It turned into a puddle of blood on the ground, with a soaring stench.

Jiang Linyuan quickly covered his mouth and nose, he was about to be vomited by the soaring stench.Suddenly, I saw that the originally gorgeous house had turned into a high city wall, and the top of the wall could not be seen at a glance.

Just when Jiang Linyuan was still wondering how there was such a high city wall, a few "swish" sounds whizzed past his ears, and a few cold arrows grazed his ears and nailed to the solid city wall.Turning around was actually a blood-red battlefield.

Jiang Linyuan didn't know where he was, but when he started to walk, he found that his feet were deeply sunk in the mud. The ground was soaked with puddles of blood, which were dark red and sticky. It caught Jiang Linyuan's eyes.

Looking up again, the battlefield where they were still fighting just now was silent, and the bones were piled up into a small mountain bag. A flag was planted on this "mountain bag", floating feebly with the breeze.

Suddenly, the pile of bones moved. First, the top bone slid down and stood up, followed by the lower layer of bones, and then the lower layer of bones.But in the blink of an eye, the "mountain bag" just now disappeared, and in front of Jiang Linyuan was a mighty group of corpses.

Some of these bones were beyond recognition, with bones exposed from wounds, while others were relatively intact, with only a deep scar on the throat or chest.Even though their faces and postures were different, these corpses all had one target, and that was Jiang Linyuan.

Jiang Linyuan was a little scared at the moment, but he saw the bones moving towards him bit by bit, but he couldn't move.But among this group of corpses, Jiang Linyuan saw a man in a yellow robe. His eyes were black and his seven orifices were bleeding. He knew at a glance that he died of poisoning.

Jiang Linyuan suddenly understood that these people were all killed by him, from the emperor's officials to the soldiers who died in these wars, the disaster spread to the whole world, and all these people wanted to demand his life.

Jiang Linyuan chuckled, and didn't move anymore, just quietly watching the bones move towards him, slowly clamping his neck, biting his arms and thighs.Until Jiang Linyuan coughed suddenly and woke up.

Following Jiang Linyuan's cough, the chair made a "clucking" sound, and Jiang Linyuan's robe fell off, almost falling into the brazier.

"Huh? Had a nightmare?" Xia Heyu had just entered, and was patting some light ash on his body, took off his coat, and put it aside.

Jiang Linyuan bent down to pick up the robe on the ground, looked out the window, and found that it was already evening, the light snow outside had stopped, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of snowflakes, the light white was beautiful.

"What did you dream about? Look at your sweaty head." Xia Heyu walked to Jiang Linyuan's side, touched his forehead and asked.

Jiang Linyuan blankly recalled the scene in his dream just now, and he was really in a daze. Although he is not a saint, he has no desire to save the world, but he still admits that he is a sinner, but he has no choice. Want him to use the rest of his life to redeem his sins?

Xia Heyu saw Jiang Linyuan's confused expression and said nothing, bent down to face him, and said, "Are you probably thinking wildly again?"

Jiang Linyuan turned back to God, shook his head slightly, raised his eyes and asked, "Is everything in the barracks arranged?"

Xia Heyu nodded, reached out and pulled Jiang Linyuan's hand on his lap, and held it in his hand naturally.Because they had just come back, Xia Heyu's hands were a little cold, while Jiang Linyuan's hands were very warm because they were kept on the fire. It was as cold as fire, but it became the same temperature after a while.

"Two days later, I will set off with [-] soldiers. You can follow me to say goodbye to my father tomorrow." Xia Heyu said.

Jiang Linyuan stood up, put his robe on the chair, and said, "Okay."

Xia Heyu raised the corners of his lips, the charcoal fire inside the house was still burning, occasionally making some slight noises, the fire light was warm yellow, reflecting the sunset pouring down from the window.
