Chapter 343 Hong Qi
There are too many things in the world that we can't resist. Even if we already know that this matter must be completed, it will definitely happen, but when this matter happens in front of us, we still don't want to accept it.
He never told me his name, but I feel a little sorry.
Huang Yaoshi also forgot his name, but he was as sorry as me.
We don't know his story, but we all see his future.
He will die.
No matter how high a person's martial arts is, when he no longer has self-confidence, he has no choice but to die.
I once thought about saving him, and I believe Huang Yaoshi also thought about it.
But in the end, we didn't move...
That day.
He suddenly said to me: Can you buy me another bowl of wine?
I looked at him and smiled: Are you so elegant tonight?
He said lightly: I'm afraid I won't have a chance to drink it again tomorrow night.
I think they won't arrive until dawn. I've prepared lanterns for you.
It doesn't matter to me whether there is a lantern or not.
Can't you see anything anymore?
He smiled: I can still see it when the sun is strong. I hope the weather will be better tomorrow. If you don't see me come back after sunset, please find someone for me. His name is Huang Yaoshi. Tell him that there is another person waiting for him in the countryside.
When he spoke, Huang Yaoshi sat on the other table on one side.
After he left, Huang Yaoshi stood up countless times and sat down countless times.
I know how he feels, because I am the same.
We don't want him to die like this, but we can't let him live like this.
This feeling of powerlessness makes us hate it.
We drank a lot of wine that day.
I drank for a day and a night.
It was not until sunset the next day that we stopped drinking.
Huang Yaoshi was stunned and got up.
I believe he has forgotten some things, but some feelings will never be forgotten.
He suddenly shouted at me: Why don't you save him?
I didn't answer because he knew the answer.
Huang Yaoshi left the pub and never came back. I don't think he treats me as a friend anymore.
I found the drunken dream of the half of the jar, and I still didn't drink it after watching it for a long time.
In the following days, I heard that a man appeared in the world who killed all the horse thieves north of the desert. Then call yourself Dongxie.
I think the reason why he called himself Dong Xie is that he often comes from the east.
But after a long time, I remembered one thing. I came all the way to the west. In fact, I also came from the east...
I didn't find that man's body, because the desert is the best burographer.
I don't know how he felt when he died, and I don't want to know.
After Huang Yaoshi didn't come, the land seemed to have returned to its original appearance. It turned out to be desolate.
I thought I would live like this.
But this is actually impossible.
I don't know how long it has been, because in this place, time is meaningless.
One day, a woman came from afar.
She led a donkey, took a long sword, and walked to me from the distant desert. Then he asked: Immortal?
Monster?
Thank you...
I don't know what she's talking about. I guess she doesn't even know what she's talking about.
He tied the donkey to the pillar next to the old hall, and then sat there and began to eat eggs. There was a basket of eggs on his donkey.
I really can't understand what this life is like.
So I just stood there looking at her. She is actually not ugly.
She ate only one egg for three days, and then she was as energetic as delicious as every day.
I don't quite understand what this means. I don't know what she's here for.
I haven't asked her, because I'm not a person who takes the initiative to speak. I also know that the business that you take the initiative to pull in always requires less money.
I think she must have come to me. If she hadn't come to me, how could she be here? She was just thinking about how to open her mouth.
A woman who is so poor that she only brings eggs can't afford to pay.
Since she won't starve to death, I don't care.
After a month, she still didn't say anything.
I can't help but be curious, because I have only seen her eat eggs a few times in a month, but now she is still alive, and I don't find that she has eaten anything else.
I wanted to know the answer, so I had to ask her, "Are you looking for me?"
She nodded: "I want to find someone to avenge my sister."
"What happened to her?"
She looked at me and said, "A group of swordsmen passed by my door a while ago. My brother was young and ignorant and offended one of them, and they killed my sister."
"Did the government not care?"
"Because they have a great origin, the government does not dare to pursue it."
I was a little disappointed, but I still asked her, "How much can you afford?"
She frowned and looked at the donkey and eggs: "My family is very poor and I don't have any extra money. All I have is this basket of eggs and a small donkey. This donkey is the dowry left to me by my mother's death."
I can only tell her well: "If you really want to avenge your sister, I advise you to raise a sum of money. No one will offend a group of swordsmen for a donkey. There is a price to pay for revenge. If you look ugly, I will persuade you to die. Don't misunderstand what I'm trying to do to you. I just want to tell you that if you want to sell it, you will be more valuable than that donkey. Do you understand what I mean?"
She shook her head: "I won't do this. If you think the money is small, I will always wait here. I think someone will come to help me.
I don't know if she really wants to avenge her sister or has nothing else to do. Everyone will stick to her belief. It's a waste of time in the eyes of others, but she thinks it's very important.
She stayed there, and I often heard her talking to herself. When there are only two people in the whole world, you will always unconsciously notice another person, and I think she will also notice me.
I think she has a mental illness.
But she should also think that my head is sick!
But later, I found that this matter became more and more strange. I finally found out why she can eat only one egg and not be hungry, and finally found the reason why she eats eggs every day.
Whenever I fall asleep at night, she will run to the place where I store food like a different person, eat well, and bring an egg.
I'm not a careful person, and I've never cared about them. If it weren't for one day when I wanted to invite people to eat eggs, I'm afraid I would never have found them.
I didn't say anything, I just smiled.
There is a reason why I want to invite someone to dinner. Because I saw a child who had just grown up, he came from the countryside for the first time.
When I looked at him, I knew that he would definitely become a big man, a real big man in the future.
Because behind him is not only a camel, but also a woman.
I know people who travel around the world, but I don't know people who take women to travel around the world. I believe that since he dares to do this, he must have some ability.
I like him a little, haha. So I invited him to dinner.
Just liking him doesn't mean that he will sympathize with him. People like me never sympathize with others. Because I don't need any sympathy from others!
I watched him finish his meal and asked him with a smile: Do you know why I treat you to dinner?
He looked at me and said: I don't know.
I laughed: Because I know you are hungry. In fact, I have been paying attention to you for a long time. I saw you squatting under the broken wall for a long time and haven't moved. It seems that you don't seem to be sick. I have seen a lot of young people like you. If you know a little martial arts, you will think you can run around the world. In fact, it is very painful to walk around the world. After understanding martial arts, you have a lot of things you can't do. You don't want to farm, do you? It's not ashamed to rob, let alone show up on the street. How do you live? If you are good at martial arts, you also need to eat. In fact, there is a profession that is very suitable for you. It can not only help you earn some money, but also be chivalrous and righteous. I don't know if you are interested. By the way, just think about it, but hurry up, you know, you will be hungry soon.
Not long after Hong Qi came, the last group of horse thieves came back. Before I took him to meet the group of villagers, I bought a pair of shoes for him, because there was a big difference between a knife with shoes and a knife without shoes.
I don't want him to do something, but I want him to understand one thing.
In fact, many people in the world don't understand. When you go to the world, the first person you kill and the first knife you wave will determine what kind of person you are.
I don't want to decide his life, so I asked him seriously again. I asked him what your name is?
He told me that his name was Hong Qi.
I didn't ask any more, because I know that this person is a direct person. It is easy for a direct person to do a thing thoroughly, but it is also easy to go to a dead corner and not look back.
So I decided to be cruel to him.
I know that he will never stay here for too long. I just hope that he can learn something useful before he leaves here. Maybe I'm too bored.
I took Hong Qi to a place.
Hong Qi asked me: Why did you take me to see the corpse?
I told him: Because the dead body can talk. Two days ago, he planned to ambush the horse thieves here, thinking that he could kill them all, but he was the one who died. What killed him was this knife. Obviously, it was different from other scars. From right to left, he had only one knife wound all over his body, that is to say, one of them only had one knife, and the first knife took his life. So when you deal with this group of horse thieves, you should pay attention to one person, a person with a knife in his left hand.
Hong Qi looked at the body carefully, and then said to me seriously: If I die, you don't have to bring someone to see me. I don't want to be a talking corpse.
He didn't understand me, just like I didn't understand my father back then. There are some things you hate, but you can never refuse.
