C39

The village entrance of Niu Village was very spacious. The white moonlight scattered a field of simple and unadorned beauty, and the person Qimu was looking for was still sitting on the tree stump at the village entrance. After a long time, he looked at the winding, rugged path that led to the outside of the village.

What was different from that morning was that the person was not drinking with the pot in his hand. He looked lonely and lonely, as if he was waiting for her to come out of his trance.

Qimu stood not far away and took a deep breath, raising her smile slightly, then walked over. She also found a tree stump next to Doctor Faang and sat down, took out the last 'burning knife' from the basket, took out the two bowls she brought back from home, filled them to the brim, held them with both hands and said to Doctor Faang:

"Doctor Faang, after you."

Doctor Faang did not stand on ceremony. After accepting it, he heroically raised his head and drank a mouthful, before slowly exhaling a mouthful of impure air. His eyes seemed to look through the mountains in front of him and looked at something else.

"You're early. I thought you'd be here in a few days."

"Doctor Faang is joking. I'm afraid you've already guessed that I would be here tonight. Otherwise, wouldn't it be fun to sit alone without wine?" "It doesn't suit your personality."

Qimu smiled and revealed it without any hesitation.

"Little girl, you don't have your mother's temper at all. You have sharp teeth and a sharp tongue. You don't spare anyone!"

Only then did Doctor Faang turn his head and look at Qimu with a smile. However, there was an indescribable sadness and heavy emotions that flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Qimu watched him attentively and took in everything before lowering her head to pour herself a small bowl of wine. She took a small sip, yet her tongue was stuck out as if to let the breeze carry away the taste of the wine.

She was silent and her expression was calm. She accompanied Doctor Faang as they looked at the path in front of the village entrance. Thinking back to what had happened in a single day, she said in her heart, life really is like a play, a play in life.

After a long time, the moon in the sky was covered by a cloud. As the sky darkened, Doctor Faang took a sip of wine and started to reminisce about the events that happened many years ago in a low voice.

"More than ten years ago, when I was at the end of my rope, I was in a moment of despair. I don't know how I managed to reach the river's edge, but I saw the sparkling river. It looked like I was in a dream, and my legs couldn't control themselves and I wanted to jump in …"

"At that time, I had already taken a step forward, and the bottomless river water beneath my feet, was just a little bit away from me. I suddenly heard someone yell, 'Kid, stop!', and that was when I suddenly woke up and retreated, leaving behind my worthless life …"

Doctor Faang had a rare look of tenderness on his face. He looked at Qimu and said slowly:

"Do you know who it was?"

Qimu shook her head while secretly guessing. Doctor Faang didn't mind and continued:

"It's normal that you don't know. At that time, even your mother was still a young lady raised in a room. That person is your grandfather, your mother's true father."

He suddenly stood up with an air of admiration and pride on his usually indifferent face. When Qimu saw this, she stood up as well to show her respect, quietly watching and feeling Doctor Faang's emotions …

"That mother of yours is now speaking of that mother of his. How can she be considered a dog shit of a mother? Back then, he was only one of the soldiers …"

"Ye Qimu!" Listen! Listen to me carefully! Your grandfather, whose name is Yang Tian, is an indomitable hero! He's a battlefield genius that my Donghua Empire has only met once in a hundred years! He made an impressive military achievement and deterred the Wilderness for how many years for Donghua! He's our grand First General of Donghua University! "

After he finished speaking, after a long time, Doctor Faang finally stood up with his hands behind his back and walked towards the Niu Village, which was a small three points area. His expression started to ease up, as if he had returned to the scene where he was saved by the river and asked to die, in a low voice:

"He said that you are a young and strong man, and that there are troubles outside the country. You don't want to be loyal to your country, but you actually have the face to go live a light life …" He said, "If you go there, will your heart be at peace?" I'm afraid even the King of Hell would not be willing to accept a weak and useless kid like you … "Come with me!"

Doctor Faang looked back at Qimu with a smile. There was happiness, sadness, and hatred … It was so complicated that it caused Qimu's heart to palpitate slightly. She actually felt an indescribable discomfort. She only heard him say,

"Back then, I was just like that. Stupid, clueless, he tricked me into going to the battlefield in the borderlands. This time, I'll be gone for life …"

"There, I still don't have a family, but I have brothers who live and die together. I have a home called the 'military camp', and a general called 'Yang Tian'. He will always be at the forefront when fighting, always taking care of us when we eat and drink …"

"Originally, everything was fine and everything was fine. The imperial government wanted to reward the general and let him choose a day to return to the imperial court. When the general heard the news, he rushed back the next day with dozens of his janissaries. I may not be a janitor, but as the general's trusted aide, I also followed him back …" "I'm really happy for the general from the bottom of my heart …"

When we were in the military camp, the general would often talk about his wife and daughter. He said that they were good anywhere in the military camp, but that it was just not good to be away from home for too long, and that he often thought of his wife and his lovely daughter. At night, he would often look at the sky and think about them.

Doctor Faang smiled gently. His smile revealed a strange distortion and weirdness. He asked in a serious tone, one word at a time:

"General, he's a very good person, but why isn't there a good reward for good people?"

"Why, why does the general have to sacrifice himself for this country, while the country he is protecting with all his might wants to take his life after his family is destroyed?"

Qimu looked at the abnormal Doctor Faang. Her eyes were slightly red and her lips were trembling. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it out loud. She was not in that era. Even though she could understand him, she couldn't answer him.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time. Finally, Doctor Faang let out a light sigh, then sat back down on the short, ancient tree stump of Niu Village again, and said indifferently:

"That's all I can tell you. No matter how young you are, you might not understand. Even if you can understand, what can you do?"

Doctor Faang gave Qimu a sidelong glance, as if he disdained her thin and weak body, but also as if he was ridiculing his useless self for more than ten years.

Qimu didn't reply. Her eyes were calm, and even her smile was the same as usual. However, her trembling fingertips betrayed her.

"If there comes a day when you have the ability to fight back against Zhaoxue for the general, come find me again."

Doctor Faang said with an expressionless face and a cold tone.

However, Qimu suddenly smiled. Her eyes were as bright as the new moon. She said softly,

"I will definitely come back."
