Qi Kuo

Everyone pestered Zhao Jun again to tell him what he did or what he saw.

Zhao Jun smiled happily, gestured with his hands and feet and said, let me tell you...

Time flowed slowly through the smell of roast chicken and strong wine. Everyone was very happy when they heard the excitement, sometimes holding their breath, sometimes inhaling, it was so lively.

Someone said, then you stayed in Huaining and didn't go out?

Zhao Jun waved his hand and raised his voice, how is that possible? !Of course I won't just stay in Huaining, is that my style?I also sneaked to Huai'an...

He happily bragged to everyone about what he had seen and heard along the way for a long time, and everyone who said it praised him again and again. What does the place ruled by the barbarians look like!

Someone said nonchalantly, don't worry, if Huaining can escape this time, Huai'an will definitely be taken back. If you want to go, only now...

The man blew his beard and stared and said, why not!If not, I can still go to Khanba King City!

Some people think that he is simply whimsical, and said, then you can do it!

"Go, go, whoever is afraid!"

Zhao Jun listened quietly, holding a chicken bone in his hand.This is what someone said, Zhao Jun, do you think so?

Zhao Jun nodded with a smile, and gave a soft "hmm".As if he had received some kind of golden order, he put his arm around Zhao Jun's shoulder and pointed to the man who said he was going to Khanba King City and said, did you see it, did you see it!We, Zhao Xiaojun, have already said that, and we still want to go to Wangcheng, why don't you go to the capital! !

Zhao Jun just laughed and didn't say a word. After waiting for a while, he said, what Zhao Xiaojun, where did Zhao Xiaojun come from!

That person patted him on the shoulder symbolically, and said earnestly, hey, you don't understand this, Zhao Xiaojun, hey!That's our pet name for you!

Zhao Jun was stunned for a second, and laughed the next moment.

After eating and bragging, Zhao Jun packed up and went to bed with a group of people.

He was lying on the hard, crumbling wooden bed, slightly rubbing the dagger in his hand with his fingers.

Hard and cold.

He touched the scabbard outside the dagger, and something slightly scratched his hand at the joint.

He gently sat up from the bed, moved closer to the window, and the half-bloomed peach blossom carved on the scabbard came into his sight just like that.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and the soft feeling of his fingers passing through Chen Ke's hair came up again, and he refused to let go for a long time.

He lay down again holding the dagger, closed his eyes, and a deep exhaustion slowly hugged him tightly.

It was pitch black all around, and the sound of swords rubbing against each other in the distance was very ear-piercing, and even the sound of fighters swinging their knives through the air quickly and vigorously could be heard.

Gradually he couldn't tell the direction, and he could only see the faint light occasionally reflected by the white jade.

He became impatient, and the sound of swords and swords in the air gradually became slow, and he could tell that someone was about to lose their hold.

He slowly moved over there, trying to see the situation clearly through the hazy moonlight. As soon as he approached, he heard an unfamiliar chuckle and the crisp sound of a sword touching the ground.

His heart skipped a beat as he watched the man in black raise the sword that was already stained with a lot of blood.

He couldn't control so much anymore, he rushed over subconsciously, and hugged the man who was kneeling in embarrassment by relying on the dagger in his hand.

He thought he was sure to die this time, and he seemed to be able to estimate the strength of that person's sword swing.

But he grinned silently, he thought, this is actually pretty good, at least I can die well...

He was not perfect by himself, the person he was holding suddenly rubbed against him, and turned around abruptly while holding him, and then a muffled groan resounded clearly in his ears.

He froze, and before he could finish, a stream of warm stuff flowed down and wet his collar.

The person on the opposite side didn't seem to have expected such a result. He was speechless for a while, looked at it, sneered, turned and left, and slowly disappeared into the darkness, just like when he came, going from dark place to dark place.

He was still holding the person in his arms, the sticky patch on his neck made him a little annoyed.

He wanted to do something, but there was nothing he could do.

The scene changed suddenly, the man was sitting on the bed facing him, the blood from the corner of his mouth couldn't be stopped no matter what.

He panicked and wiped the blood overflowing from his lips with his hand.

Hot, with the temperature of his master.

He withdrew his hand suddenly.

Seeing the person on the bed thinning out so slowly, he wanted to reach out and grab him, but he couldn't, the person's hand just gradually became smaller and shriveled in his palm.

He cried, he said, no...

No way, no way!

He yelled, Chen Ke!

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and the room was already brightly lit.

The sentence he yelled out in surprise still echoed in the small room, Chen Ke.

The people in the house had already gone out, leaving him alone inside.His expression was dazed for a while, and he staggered to the edge of the pool, took a handful of cold water and splashed it on his face.

After he tried his best to calm himself down, he picked up the clothes beside the pillow, tidied them hastily and went out.

When he rushed to the kitchen, it wasn't too busy inside, so Zhao Jun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that fortunately he didn't get up too late, otherwise he was going to scold him.

He opened the curtain and walked in, changed his face, smiled and said to the supervisor, Uncle Liu, sorry, I got up late.

Don't say that you don't reach out and don't hit the smiling person, just such a very handsome person smiles at you in the morning, no matter how angry you are, you don't want to say anything.

So Uncle Liu said, it's all right.After finishing speaking, he pulled him aside, gave him some broken silver, and asked him to go to the street to buy things that were missing.

Zhao Jun took it with a smile, and said briskly, yes!

Uncle Liu was so happy to be teased, he smiled and took him out, saying, hurry up, get busy later, you will suffer.

Zhao Jun walked down the street, and the money turned around and smiled at him.

The sun shone down from behind him, covering the sky and covering the earth, reflecting the smile on his face, the people in the distance, and the green hills in the distance.

Brilliantly eerie.

He tossed the broken silver casually, and walked towards the vegetable market carelessly.It seems to be the days when it has never been invaded by outsiders.

Wanton and fresh.

Slowly watch the sunlight turn from deep red to golden, from soft to harsh.

He looked at the distance, but his thoughts drifted to the distance.

A cry of a child broke Zhao Jun's world.He came back to his senses and looked at the child next to an empty shop.

He walked over, knelt down, looked at the child at the same level, and asked him what's wrong.

The child ignored him and only cared about crying sadly by himself.

Zhao Jun looked around and saw no one else, so he walked around to a store, asked for a square handkerchief, and carefully wiped away the child's tears.

He stretched out his hand to lift the child's chin, let him look at him, and said, what's wrong?

The child glanced at him, lowered his head, looked up at him again, and said, My mother and I were walking, and we wanted to buy buns, but then disappeared...

Seeing that he was about to cry again, Zhao Jun suddenly felt that he had touched a hot potato, so he handed the square handkerchief to the child and said, let's go, I'll take you to find her.

The child didn't listen and cried louder, I don't want it!I want to wait for my mother!I do not want!

Zhao Jun frowned, but didn't say anything else, standing beside him, walking his own way.

Not long after, a woman in coarse clothes came over following the sound of crying, and when she saw the crying child on the ground, she suddenly shed tears, ran over, picked up the child on the ground and said, Xuan'er, don't cry Here comes my mother...

Zhao Jun didn't like children at first. If he had to say it, he would simply hate it. To be able to do this today is already the best he can do.

When Zhao Jun saw this scene, he also knew that he should go. He hadn't finished his work yet.

As soon as he turned around, someone grabbed the corner of his clothes.

He lowered his head, looked at the child looking at him with tears on his face, and said with a twitch, brother, you, uh, your handkerchief.

Zhao Jun squatted down again, took the handkerchief, wiped the child's face, put the handkerchief into the child's dirty hands, and said, don't cry, keep the handkerchief for yourself.Wipe it when you cry.

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and rubbed the top of the child's hair, then turned and left.After a while, as if thinking of something again, he turned around and waved to the mother and son, saying, you should go out of the city, you don't look like the people here... go back quickly...

The woman nodded, looking at his back gradually walking away, the high bundled hair was reflected by the sun into a glowing apricot color.She raised her voice and said, thank you!

Zhao Jun didn't look back, just raised his hand and waved, then turned and entered the vegetable market.

When Zhao Jun returned to the station with big and small bags, he heard the soldiers discussing that General Chen Ke had returned.

Zhao Jun couldn't help but want to laugh. It took so long before they knew that Chen Ke was back.

He took the belt and went to the kitchen again.On the way, he met several soldiers of the National Defense Army. Before he could react, he greeted him. He looked confused and didn't know them after thinking about it.

Zhao Jun rushed back to the kitchen with his belt in his hand, and was accepted by Uncle Liu with a smile.He really didn't understand, and asked, why are you looking at me like this?

He touched his face again and said, there should be nothing on my face...

Uncle Li, who was closest to him, came over, pulled him to sit aside, patted his hand and said, Zhao Xiaojun, how long have you joined the National Defense Army?

Zhao Jun was taken aback by his slap, and his heart turned a thousand times. While struggling to get his hand out of Uncle Li's, he said, what, what?

Uncle Li grasped his hand even more tightly and said, don't lie to us, Mr. Lin came here in person just now and told you to report to the National Defense Army.

Zhao Jun again, huh?

Uncle Li finally couldn't take it anymore, raised his hand and hit him, saying, you boy, play a fool with me again!If you don't want to say it, just say it and don't want to say it, there are so many twists and turns!

Zhao Jun jumped up, ouch, yelled, and said, I didn't!

Everyone laughed.

After Zhao Jun bid farewell to everyone, he hugged Second Uncle Li and said, Second Uncle, I...can you...help me take care of my family...I might...

Uncle Li patted him on the back and said, I know, I know if you don't tell me.

Zhao Jun gave him a firm hug, then let go of his hand, and walked towards the National Defense Army without looking back.

The words of the old conversation last night echoed in his ears again, and he knew that from now on, every word and deed would never turn back.
