Major General Through the Upper Gate

"Don't get excited." Li Li waved his hand, he tilted his head and said, "Old Wu, tell me about this."

"Brother Wei, sit down first." Li Zheng, who was called, sighed, tapped his cigarette rod on the edge of the table, and then said slowly: "Aren't your father and little father dead? Instead, he was captured by the people of Yunjing Country."

That year there was great chaos in the north, and the Yunjing Kingdom led troops to attack from two directions. Seeing that the border of the country was about to be broken, Fuzhou in the south ordered the conscription.When people come to the town, they come with a notice, one ding per household, and those who are single can pay ten taels of silver to be exempted.

Apart from his father, Cheng Wei's family is about sixteen, and he read the announcement that the conscripts were compensated by the official family with five taels of silver per person, and he thought of his younger brother who was suffering from illness.

A brother like him can't pretend to be a kid, even if he can hide it for a while, when the armor is issued before the whole team sets off, everyone has to take off their clothes for a body check.

At that time, if they are convicted of deception, their family may have to be exiled into the army.

Cheng Wei was stubborn in the end, and after being rejected by Li Zheng, he secretly took his father's paperwork and went to see the pavilion chief in the middle of the night.At that time, the pavilion chief who came down to supervise the conscription lived in Liu's house, and Cheng Wei was stopped by the guards, so he couldn't afford to kneel outside the door.

Seeing his filial piety and knowledge of some herbal medicines, the pavilion chief fulfilled his affection after much consideration, and recruited him to the army doctor's subordinates.Therefore, Cheng Wei became the only brother who served in the army in ten miles and eight villages that year.

But it was precisely because of this that after Cheng Wei's father found out, he begged Li Zheng and the village chief several times to no avail, and the pavilion chief personally approved it, so there was no room for maneuver.

"Not long after you left, your younger brother became ill. Your father sold the field to your uncle and borrowed 20 taels from the Liu family. After taking the money, he took your younger brother to the county medical center. It was cold at that time The ground freeze is in the middle of the night again, and the medical center will let you prepare for the funeral." Li Zheng was smoking a cigarette, talking about the past, he couldn't help but feel heavy.

On the way back from the hospital, something was wrong with Cheng Wei's little father. Cheng Er was over-thinking because of the family accident, and he had a high fever after returning.Burned all night in a daze, only to wake up the next day to find that Cheng Wei's little father was gone.

Cheng Er was going crazy at that moment, and he searched for dozens of days without seeing anyone. At that time, gossip slowly began to spread in the village, and Cheng Wei's young father, seeing the high debts and the family's disappearance, might have run away early. .

Cheng Er naturally didn't believe it. He used the ginseng brought back from the medical clinic to continue the life of his youngest son, and went from village to village to inquire about his brother's whereabouts.But more than half a month, the person is thin and out of shape.

Cheng Wei's little father came back at that time, but he didn't come back alone, Hu Yu and Lan Huo were behind him.

In the second half of the night of the twelfth lunar month, Cheng Er, who was sleeping drowsily, heard his Qidi's voice calling the door, and rushed out in a jerk.He was also unprepared, and was knocked to the ground by Hu Yu's claw the moment he opened the door.

Lan Huo was only an adult at that time, and he grabbed the frost leaf and covered his mouth by the way to prevent him from screaming.That is, that night, these two people overturned his thoughts all along.

After Hu Yu gave Cheng Er a paw, she stepped forward and kicked him. Seeing that the person was lying on the ground without moving, she went into the house and carried the child out.

With only one breath left, Cheng Xiaodi squinted his eyes and saw Cheng Xiaopai beside him, then struggled and stretched out his hand, whimpering and calling "Little Daddy".

Shuangye's tears came down all at once.

Hu Yu slapped the child on the buttocks, he glanced at the little one with contempt and said threateningly: "Little waste, be honest, or I will kill you!"

At this time, Cheng Er, who was lying on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, staggered and stood up again. Hu Yu slapped him in the face when he entered the door, and the blood on his head and face at this moment looked very scary.

He rushed towards Hu Yu, trying to get his child back.

Shuang Ye shook her head desperately with red eyes. When he was caught stealing animal stones from the Hui tribe, he was imprisoned for such a long time just to fight for his life.

In the end, the clan agreed to his request, except that the beast stone could be given, but the cub had to return to the clan, and he had to return to the tribe to bear the responsibility of multiplying the clan.

Shuang Ye finally compromised, he had no choice, his only request was to hope that Cheng Er would live.

"When the Wei family heard the movement, your father was dying, and your uncle's leg was also broken at that time." Li Zheng continued with a long sigh.

After Wei Dongliang rang the gong as a warning, he took a knife and went into the yard of Cheng Wei's house. At that time, Cheng Da also lived in Cheng Er's house.Cheng Fa originally thought that his own brother's family had undergone changes, but the only remaining child was dying, so he came to help keep watch for a few days and nights.

When Huyu went in to hold the child, he had already heard the movement and touched a knife in his hand, and when Huyu entered the door, there was a burst of chopping.Unexpectedly, Hu Yu, who had been scratched, was furious, turned into a beast shape, and broke his leg with one foot.

That night now seems like a nightmare.

"Don't hit me, don't hit me anymore! Let him go, please let him go! I promise you everything, I promise everything!" Shuangye, who broke free from Lanhuo's palm, knelt down on the ground, whimpering and crying. Hu Yu was lifting Cheng Er and throwing it hard towards the partition wall in the courtyard.

This is what Wei Dongliang saw when he entered the yard. Cheng Er was lying on the corner of the wall soaked in blood, and Cheng Da was crawling out of the main room with one leg, holding a kitchen knife in his hand.

"Later we all arrived. Your little father and the two orcs from Yunjing Kingdom took your little brother and your father and left together."

Li was putting down the cigarette stick, he looked at Cheng Wei and said guiltily: "Brother Wei, I am the one who is sorry for your Cheng family."

There are so many people in the village who really want to stop the two orcs, they can definitely stop them.It's just that Hu Yu pinched Cheng Xiaodi's neck and said angrily, "Although you stop me, I won't be able to return to the tribe before dawn. Tomorrow is the day you will destroy the village!"

"Village chief, don't stop them, you can't stop them, don't die for me anymore. I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you!" Shuang Ye knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately to everyone, and finally he was killed by Lan Huo. Pulled up, while carrying Cheng Er on his back, he dragged him, who was already unconscious, and left Tonghua Village.

That night, it was Li Zheng who let them go.A year later, Hu Yu came to retaliate and took away Cheng Da's third son, Cheng Ying, who was about the same age as Cheng Wei.

As the head of a mile, he cannot bet on the life of the entire village.In theory, no one dared to say that he did something wrong, but in emotion, he owed the Cheng family a lot.

Later, news came that Cheng Wei had also died on the front line. He stayed up all night and his hair suddenly became gray.On the second day, he discussed with the villagers and set up a tomb for his family. He even went to offer incense in person during the Ching Ming Festival.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Wei came back again, Cheng Dali came to him immediately, and kept the matter from that year a secret.At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and they only knew a little about it. They only knew that Yun Jingguo might be eyeing his Cheng family.

If Cheng Wei lived in the village, it might be bad luck, so Cheng Da wanted Cheng Wei to marry sooner, and the farther away the better.

Now it seems that it is too late.Yun Jingguo knew that Cheng did not still exist, and Gu Xijiao was in the same situation.Li Zheng closed his eyes, not daring to think any further.

Gu Xijiao didn't see Cheng Wei when he came out, he glanced at the people sitting there, Li Li sighed and pointed out.Gu Xizheng looked in the direction he pointed, and only had time to see Cheng Wei's back.

"Boy Gu, look at Brother Wei, go." Li Zheng waved his hand at him, with a vicissitudes of voice as if he had aged several years all of a sudden.

Gu Xijiao didn't care to ask any more questions, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Cheng Wei!" Gu Xizheng grabbed his hand in the small bamboo grove next to Liu's house, and Fang shouted several times behind him, but Cheng Wei seemed to be unable to hear him, and instead walked faster and faster.

Gu Xicheng held him by the shoulders and made him turn around. Before he could ask what happened, he saw Cheng Wei's red eyes.

"They made things difficult for you?" Gu Xizhen frowned. If a group of old guys made things difficult, they should make things difficult for him. Why did he only leave for a while, and Cheng Wei's eyes turned red.

"No." Cheng Wei shook his head, he frantically raised his hand to wipe his tears, but wiped more and more.He turned around in embarrassment and wanted to leave.

But Gu Xicheng pulled him back, put his hands on the back of Cheng Wei's neck, hugged him and pressed him to his chest.Cheng Wei struggled for a while and did not break away, and then there was a low sobbing sound.

"Gu Xijiao, they said that my little father may still be alive." The person buried in his arms said with a sob.
