Tao is impermanent

When guns and horses massacred horse thieves' dens, it was widely spread.

After the county magistrate knew that Luo Yitan had not acted according to the plan, he severely criticized Luo Yitan. Luo Yitan accepted it obediently, without a hint of anger on his indifferent face, and just listened calmly. As if the criticism he heard had nothing to do with him.

Although the county magistrate knew that he had such a temperament before, he was sensitive to the fact that his current appearance was more serious than the previous indifference.The county magistrate lost his anger for a while, but felt that it was meaningless to scold him like this now, so he waved his hand and asked him to go back and have a good rest and reflect.

Luo Yitan's heart moved slightly, he stood up to say goodbye, and then walked to his new home.

The new home was prepared by the county magistrate for the two brothers. It was an abandoned log cabin, dilapidated, but fortunately it was still rainproof.He is really grateful for what the county magistrate has done for him, and the warmth given to them by the people of Jinke County, but for some reason, he can't grow a root in his heart. Everything in his life was cut off, and the only bond left was his younger brother who was only eighteen years old.

The mediocre life he dreamed of a few days ago is absolutely impossible, and he also understands that in this age of wars, there is no stability at all.

He kept walking, and finally returned to this new home.As soon as they entered the door, they saw Mrs. Li's wife standing at the square table, taking out today's food from the food box. Although it was just some greens and cabbage, it was enough for them to eat.

Luo Yitan hurried forward to help Dr. Li's wife arrange the dishes.

Mrs. Li smiled, crow's feet spread around her eye sockets. "Today, your younger brother finally spoke."

Luo Yitan was stunned, and he was also overjoyed.His younger brother woke up on the third day, but he didn't say a word to others, and he was also busy cleaning up the group of horse thieves. After cleaning up the horse thieves, he dealt with some aftermath, and he never cared about Wen Mojue's emotions , Now that I think about it, it's wrong.He was annoyed, his brows furrowed together.

"Your younger brother seems to have stood up, you don't have to worry." Mrs. Li was relieved, covered the food box again, held it in her hand, and said before leaving: "Your younger brother is very strong and very good. You don't need anything Say, he will get better on his own, then I will leave first, and I will come back tomorrow to get the used bowls and chopsticks." After she finished speaking, she smiled and helped him close the door, and left with the food box.

Luo Yitan stood where he was, a little embarrassed.He has already received so much care from the Li family, and if this continues, he really doesn't know how to repay him.He silently remembered this kindness in his heart, and vowed to repay their family for their care.

Afterwards, he walked into the bedroom and walked to the bed, only to see the young man who was supposed to be lying on the bed standing by the window, looking at the beautiful scenery outside.When he walked in, the young man immediately noticed something, and when he turned around, there was a hint of warmth in his eyes. At that moment, Luo Yitan felt that the young man in front of him seemed to have grown up, as if his heart had become stronger.

He walked to his side, grabbed his warm palm, and said dissatisfied: "You are not fully recovered, how can you get out of bed?"

The young man smiled, his eyes almost narrowed, "It's alright, if I don't get up again, the muscles in my body will be exhausted by me. I said that one day I must be as good as Brother Yi Tan."

He was silent, thinking to himself that the little guy had a pretty good memory.He had no choice but to say, "Okay, let's eat first."

"okay!"

He answered with high spirits, but Luo Yitan's heart was deeply hurt.Why does this little guy refuse to show his fragile appearance whenever and wherever?

Instead of talking about those painful past events, the two began to chat about interesting things about their childhood and their future prospects.Wen Mojue kept smiling, as if he really got away from that painful past.

That night, Luo Yitan and Wen Mojue fell asleep again as they did when they were children.

At night, pain can breed.

Although Luo Yitan has always acted calmly, in fact, the more indifferent he looks, the more he cares in his heart. The pain floods like a river. If he is unwilling, his whole body will fall into an abyss of pain. .

There was a little guy sleeping beside him, although that person was an adult, but to him, he was still the boy in his memory, so he had no choice but to suppress his sobs and let the tears run down his cheeks.He just thought, let him vent a bit, and then he will return to his original state tomorrow.

But he didn't want to, but the people around him didn't fall asleep, but felt his sadness.The young man beside him moved, and then began to pat Luo Yitan's back softly and clumsily, but said nothing.

The moment he was discovered, Luo Yitan was embarrassed, but under Wen Mojue's gentle movements, he couldn't stop crying.He cried for a long time before he finally stopped crying.He felt extremely ashamed when he stopped, and couldn't help but stiffen all over.

The little guy behind him seemed to chuckle in the dark, which made him even more ashamed and angry.Could there be anything more tragic than having a child discover his own vulnerability?He had no choice but to act as if nothing had happened, but the people behind him refused to let him go.

"Hey, Brother Yi Tan, I didn't expect you to be a crybaby!" His tone was slightly excited.

Luo Yitan didn't understand why the little guy suddenly became excited, but his self-esteem as an adult still made him choose to pretend to be asleep!

Wen Mojue must have known what he was thinking at the moment, and his smile became even more exaggerated, holding Luo Yitan's shoulder and trying to turn his body around.

His strength is indeed so powerful that Luo Yitan accidentally let him succeed.

Luo Yitan was extremely ashamed and indignant, he didn't expect that the perfect image he had built for many years would be broken by a child.He closed his eyes hopelessly, but he didn't want the man to reach out and wipe away the tears that hadn't dried up on his cheeks.

"Brother Yi Tan, don't be sad, don't you still have me? I won't leave you." His comfort was a bit clumsy, but his tone was extremely firm and sincere.

Luo Yitan couldn't help grieving.He was stunned for a long time. In the darkness, he couldn't see Wen Mojue's expression clearly, but he could guess that the man's face must be serious and determined.For some reason, his chest was overflowing with an indescribable warmth, sweet and warm, like gurgling spring water, ding dong ding dong directly hitting his heart.

He couldn't help laughing, and raised his hand to pat the boy's soft black hair, "Okay, I won't be sad anymore."

The young man happily agreed, the arms supported on both sides suddenly withdrew their strength, and lay on Luo Yitan's body rascally.Luo Yitan was so stressed that he almost spit out the food he ate today.He pushed Wen Mojue, and said weakly, "Hey, don't lie on me."

"No, I really want to lie on you today!" He cheated, even using his legs.

Luo Yitan finally lost the battle, acquiesced to his rogue skills, hugged his waist resignedly, turned slightly sideways, and closed his eyes.

The boy found a comfortable position, hugged him tightly and fell asleep deeply.

Sadness will eventually pass, whether it is a month or a year, as long as there is hope and warmth around you, the pain will be replaced.

After that, life in Jinke County was considered peaceful, but soon, the flames of war spread throughout the country and spread to every corner of the country.The scramble between countries has caused grass bandits to spring up one by one like mushrooms after rain.In just two years, the flames of war in the Jingdong area spread to this small Jinke County with a turbulent momentum.

The magistrate of Jin Ke County was appointed by his superiors as the temporary border guard general to guard the border city gate not far from Jin Ke County.It was reported from above that the reinforcements would arrive within three months to make peace with their rebels.

It was originally a small Jinke County, with a radius of only a hundred miles, and the so-called rebels were just talking nicely, so how could they have any righteousness?

The army, if it is said that the rebel army can only choose from the fast and strong men, and force them to go to the battlefield to fight bloody for the country.

In the summer of that year, Wen Mojue finally turned [-], and Luo Yitan was also in his twenties, nearly thirty years old.If it is an ordinary family, they have already established marriages, what's more, they already have a group of children, but the two of them are lonely, and no good parents are willing to marry their daughters to live a hard life.Furthermore, even if some girls from poor families are willing to marry over, Luo Yitan is unwilling. He can't say why. He just thinks that there is still a younger brother in his family who needs to be taken care of, and having multiple girls is just causing some trouble. Besides, he himself doesn't have a girl he particularly likes, and more importantly, now that the war is worrying, who knows what will happen in the future, will he flee with his family and daughter?Or leave your family and go to war alone?

Oh, isn't this just a little more trouble?And what Luo Yitan is most afraid of, trouble is one of them.

As he expected, the county magistrate of Jin Ke issued a notice requiring all families with young men to come to the yamen to register in the roster in order to be drafted into the army in the future.Naturally, the arrests in their yamen are the first to bear the brunt, and Luo Yitan's younger brother Wen Mojue is already full. Although he is not from Jinke County, but now that the war is tense, one more person is more protection.

Luo Yitan was unwilling to let his younger brother go to the battlefield. Now that his younger brother is teaching well in the local college, going to the battlefield means death and parting.He was unwilling in every possible way, but he was a commoner, so he had no right to argue with the people above.Although he was full of reluctance, he still wrote down the name of his younger brother Wen Mojue heavily.

But that night, Wen Mojue's face was full of joy. While eating, he asked Luo Yitan: "Brother Yitan, I heard outside the school today that the yamen is registering a family with a young man at home. Bro, can you help me?" Write your name on it?"

When Luo Yitan heard about this incident, he felt displeased, so he picked up the white rice in a muffled voice and looked coldly at the young man who was beaming and talking excitedly.I thought silently in my heart: This guy is taller than me, why is he still so clueless?Is war really a child's play?

He frowned and ignored him.

Wen Mojue didn't hear his answer, looked sideways, and immediately understood, put his head on his head, put his hand on his cheek, and said with a smile: "Brother Yi Tan, don't you want me to go?"

He continued to eat, nonsense, really think the battlefield is safe?

Wen Mojue put down the bowl and chopsticks, a trace of leisurely tenderness glowed on his tough cheeks in the candlelight. "Brother, I have had great strength since I was a child, and I often keep fit. Ordinary people can't hurt me." He paused, then smiled slightly, "Brother, don't think that I'm just a mediocre poor schoolteacher. Look down on me."

Wen Mojue was naturally telling a joke, but the speaker did not mean the listener, but the listener did not necessarily mean it.Luo Yitan immediately opened his mouth to explain. "I don't think so." He sneezed, but he didn't know how to explain it.

Wen Mojue laughed, his laughter was no longer the childishness of a few years ago, but a hoarse and rough voice, different from Luo Yitan's clear and clean voice, his voice was deeper, more honest and powerful.

Luo Yitan immediately realized that he had overreacted, but he calmed down immediately. Looking at Wen Mojue's slightly smiling eyes, he explained worriedly: "If we accidentally lose, then we will all die in hell."

Wen Mojue sat up slowly, and said seriously: "We will not fail."

Against the flickering orange candlelight, Luo Yitan stared closely at the other's handsome nose, then raised his head slightly, staring at his firm eyes, an uncontrollable shock and surprise welled up deep in his heart, he finally realized that it turned out that the grown-up It's not just Wen Mojue's body, but also his heart that has grown.His heart has been tougher than ordinary children since he was a child, and he even knows how to hide his weakness better than some adults, but now, he seems to be more naturally free and easy than before.

With that flying look, who dares to say that he is not just an inconspicuous little man on the frontier?If it were him, he would definitely use his perseverance to carry the broken rivers and mountains.After all, he would read the pictures of mountains and rivers every night, and search for news outside the city wall every day.At that time, he thought that maybe he was just a child's curiosity about the outside world, but now it seems that Wen Mojue is really different from himself.

He stared at the splendor and made up his mind. "We must be fine."

"Okay." Wen Mojue replied confidently.
