romeo and fourier

Luo Yuting told him about the legend about the falling soul lock.

At that time, Luo Yuting had just been caught, and that guy was still a tough guy. No matter how much he tried to persuade him, he would never bow his head. He repeated the same sentence over and over again: "At worst, kill me. It's impossible to make me surrender! It's impossible in this life!"

Fu Li was also really in a dilemma. Although this guy was stupid, but to be honest, after fighting for so long, he felt a little sympathy for this man.This person is a fierce general, a sharp knife, as long as it is used in the right hands, it will definitely help their future ambitions.

However, this stupid bandit with a brain, for the sake of such a little face, won't get involved, if he is really killed... it would be a pity.

When he was in a dilemma, God gave him an opportunity.

"How many people died?!"

"Back to Commander, two... 270 and three people..."

The remnants of Tsarist Russia attacked a village in the north. All the men in the village were slaughtered, and all the women and children were taken away. What is the purpose of it...you don't need to guess.

"What are they doing with the kids!"

The person who came to report the letter gritted his teeth: "There are a few perverts in that group of remnants who like to treat children... Anyway, the situation is urgent, we must rescue them all!"

Without talking nonsense, he immediately led a battalion of troops and got on his horse.However, before he could go far, the guards who stayed at the headquarters chased after him, and said anxiously, "Fu Shuai! It's not good, Luo Yuting ran away!"

"What?!" He gritted his teeth violently, stared in the direction of the prison with anger, and finally raised his whip and shouted, "Leave him alone, saving people is the most important thing, the whole army obeys orders! Let's go—!"

That battle was a bit difficult, and it was not difficult to win, but it was really too tricky to rescue all the captives without any injuries.The other party naturally knew their purpose, so they held captives in their hands to block their swords and guns. The soldiers hesitated, but the other party turned and killed them.Of course Fu Li knew how to wipe out this group of vicious gangsters, but if he really did that, he would not be able to save those women and children.

At this time, Luo Yuting brought hundreds of people and killed them in a mighty way.

He fought against this group of people for half a month, but he never imagined that he would fight side by side with this group of bandits just a few days after he tortured their coach.

But just as he expected, Luo Yuting's bandits were stronger than other bandits by more than 01:30. Fu Li led the regular army to attack the remnants of Tsarist Russia from the front, and Luo Yuting led his men to outflank the remnants of Tsarist Russia. The group of people had no way to retreat, they could block the front and ignore the back, and not long after, they were all wiped out.

Fighting against this guy requires racking his brains, and working together...to be so seamless. Although he had expected it, it really exceeded his expectations.

After getting off the horse, I was still thinking about being a little embarrassed. I just whipped this guy all over, and then turned around and fought side by side... Now?Could it be that they are going to fight each other just after the war together?

To catch or not to catch?

He was struggling with it, but the stupid thing rolled off the horse by himself, scratched his head, hesitated for a long time, and choked out a sentence: "I heard...you are here to save people."

nonsense.Fu Li silently rolled his eyes.

"Then... what are you trying to do by arresting people everywhere during this time?"

After all, he wanted to recruit this idiot, so he asked with a good attitude: "There are bandit dens everywhere in the Northeast, how do you want the common people to live a good life?"

The man groaned for a long time, then asked again: "So you really want to lead the people to live a good life?"

"Ah."

After talking for a long time, I actually said: "If you really think so, I... I won't make things difficult for you."

Fu Li was taken aback.

The big fool struggled for a while, and finally threw the gun in his hand to the ground, and stretched out his arms towards him: "Come on, I won't run away, you catch me."

"……Are you dumb?"

"Well... Although your methods are really despicable, if you catch it, you will catch it. If I lose, I will lose. From now on, I will be yours."

Why does this sound strange.

Fu Li was helpless: "I have said it several times, as long as you work for us, the benefits will be indispensable to you..."

"I don't want benefits."

"Then what do you want?"

The man tilted his head and grinned: "I want us ordinary people to stand upright with our backs upright! No longer be bullied by those bastards!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at him fixedly: "If you promise to do it, I will follow you in the future!"

I thought that recruiting this person would give you gold and silver, but I didn't expect that the only thing this person wanted was a promise that was heavier than gold and silver.

Let the common people stand upright with their backs upright... He and he, and even the people of the whole era, have struggled for a lifetime, isn't it just for this sentence?

"Okay, I promise you."

Since then, for 20 years, we have shared weal and woe, honor and disgrace, that person is still so stupid that it gives him a headache, but most of the time, he is his most steadfast and most reassuring pillar.

"This thing is for you."

Of course... Since then, I have always received many strange things.

"What is this..." My heart was very tired.

"Falling soul lock," the man rubbed over as if offering a treasure, "I just drove away a bunch of little devils, and the villagers are grateful to me, they gave me a treasure."

The two padlocks, made of black jade, looked nothing special.

"The quality of jade is average, but the name is interesting."

"It's not only interesting, but there's also a story!" Luo Yuting sat next to him and touched his shoulder, "It's a legend in their village. I don't know if it's true or not. It's very interesting."

At that time, Xiao Jinzhi got out of Fu Li's arms and said in a daze, "What legend? I want to hear it!"

This little guy was one of the children rescued from the Tsarist Russian army. He was a very pretty boy with powder puffs. His parents were both dead, so Fu Li adopted him. Fortunately, he was rescued in time, otherwise his fate would have been unimaginable.

Luo Yuting hugged the little guy and teased him: "Call me Daddy and I'll tell you a story."

"No! Jin'er only has one father, big smelly bear! Let me go!"

"...a big bear? I...cough cough, I, why did I become a big bear!"

"Big Bear! Smelly! Daddy, Daddy save me!"

The two idiots, one big and one small, confronted each other for a long time, but Fu Li had no choice but to bring the child over, and smiled kindly at the older one next to him: "Hurry up and tell me, what are you serious about with the child?"

That's what's good about the big one, just give him a casual smile, any awkwardness, anger, and grievances can disappear, and immediately return him with a bigger smile, answering every question, being terribly obedient.

So Luo Yuting began to tell the story in a serious manner.

"A long time ago in their village, there was a general. The general had a childhood sweetheart and a wife. The two were very affectionate. Every time the general went to war, the wife would go to the Buddhist temple to pray for him. The two lived happily until one day, The general died in battle."

"My wife is in pain every day. The abbot of the Buddhist temple couldn't bear it, so he gave her a magic weapon called the falling soul lock. He said that if he made a wish on this soul lock, he would cut blood to nourish it every day, and the wish would come true. "

"My wife really did this. She made a wish for it, 'I hope that person can come back to me again'. After that, she cut blood and raised it every day, day after day, for many years. Until a certain day God, I don't know why, people in the village suddenly started to go crazy one after another. The government searched for a long time but couldn't find out the reason, only found out the day the first person went crazy, a new family came to the village with a Four or five-year-old children, there are no other clues. So after a while, the whole family of the new family died in an accident, and only the child survived. The wife felt sorry for him. , took the child home for adoption, and from that day on, those who got mad gradually recovered inexplicably."

"My wife still provided for the two soul locks every day, and guarded the general's solitary grave until she died, and the child she adopted was the child she adopted after her death. The child was the same as her, She guarded her tomb for the rest of her life, never married, and was finally buried next to the tomb where she and the general were buried together. Before she died, she entrusted the soul lock to the village chief, leaving a sentence: Nourish with blood, give people what they want .”

After Luo Yuting finished speaking, he looked sideways at the indifferent man beside him: "People in the village told me that that child may be the reincarnation of the general, but he has no memory, and they have missed it for the rest of their lives."

Fu Li didn't respond, but Luo Jinzhi tilted his head and asked, "Since they have no memory, how do they know that he is the reincarnation of the general?"

"It is said that the child and the general have many similarities. They have similar personalities, similar habits, and similar physical skills. Moreover, they both love the same person deeply, and even love the wife in exactly the same way. And, ah, they all said, It was because the child was adopted by his wife that the people in the village stopped going crazy, because the wife's wish was fulfilled, and the mana of the falling soul lock dissipated."

"Wow, that's amazing! Does any wish come true?"

"Then how do I know, Jin'er is so interested, please give it a try."

"Huh? Okay, okay..."

"Don't talk to the kids about anything," Fu Li saw that the two of them were talking more and more nonsense, so he quickly interrupted, "These nonsense things are all bluffs, they are all made up by pawnshops to sell them at a high price. You idiots use it, you can trust it, don’t bring bad Jin’er.”

"Ting Li, why don't you be so ruthless, what a bleak story, don't you feel moved?"

"Impressed, why are you moved? Have you finished copying your art of war? Show it to me."

"Uh... suddenly remembered that I haven't pooped today, I'm going to squat in a latrine hahaha..."

At that time, he really didn't believe it.

Reincarnation, it sounds like nonsense at first glance, how could it be true?

But if, the naive person back then was actually me...

If so, that legend is actually true.

[May you finally get the heart of the old man, and never leave the white head in the next life]

Fu Li stared blankly at the line of words, stretched out his hand, and touched it bit by bit.

—Jin'er's handwriting.

He will not admit it wrong, this is the handwriting of his son whom he has loved all his life, Luo Jinzhi.

That child... actually believed in that legend?

But is that really just a legend?

After all, so many people are really crazy...

and many more.

Fu Li was shocked, and suddenly his eyes widened.

If it is said... that this madness is really caused by the mana of the falling soul lock on those who have been to the museum, does that mean that Jin'er's wish has already started to work?

[On the day the first person went crazy, a new family came to the village with a four or five-year-old child...]

【It is because the child was adopted by his wife that the people in the village are no longer crazy, because the wife's wish has been fulfilled...】

【That child may be the general's reincarnation. 】

"Nourishing with blood, granting people's wishes..." Lu Yun beside him suddenly murmured, "Look carefully, there is a vortex of blood flowing in the center of these two pieces of black jade."

"Bloodstain?"

Fu Li was taken aback, and immediately picked up the falling soul lock to look at it.

Indeed, there were bloodstains slowly flowing in Mo Yu, but he clearly remembered that when Luo Yuting gave it to him, the two soul-falling locks were ordinary, they would not emit light, and there were no bloodstains.

Could it be... Is this what started?

"This thing is indeed weird. To be on the safe side, we should report it to the police. Maybe it is really related to it." Lu Yun stared at the bloodstains circulating for a long time, and then said, "But there are several bloodstains in this basement." It's been ten years, but the madness only appeared in this year, it's also strange..."

"One year?"

"what?"

"Those people back then... it was only after that child came to the village that they went crazy, and it was because that person came back... that they went crazy..." Fu Li's voice trembled slightly, and even the hand holding the falling soul lock was shaking. Shaking more and more, "That person came back... a year ago, that person came back..."

"Fu Li? Fu Li, what's wrong with you?"

Luo Ou was worried about him all the way, and finally couldn't help it at this moment, grabbed his arm, and half-forced him to come over: "Look at me, Fuli! Speak up, don't scare me!"

There was a constant buzzing in his ear, and Fu Li was stunned for a long time before he forced himself to come back to his senses slowly.Looking up and seeing Luo Ou's flustered face, my heart felt warm and shivering. It took me a long time to finally calm down, and I slowly shook my head: "I'm fine, don't worry."

"You don't seem to be okay?" Luo Ou stared at the soul lock in his hand, and said, "Give this to me, don't hold it, this thing is very weird, don't hurt you!"

Fu Li didn't move, but grabbed the falling soul lock even tighter, and didn't respond to him. He looked back at Lu Yun and said, "You are right, file a report with the police, just say... find someone, as long as you find him. Madness can be cured."

Lu Yun was annoyed by this matter for several months. Although he didn't quite understand his logic, he immediately cheered up and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Fu Li pursed his lower lip, staring at the small circle of blood, and finally said: "The day the first patient went crazy, the person who came to our museum."

The author has something to say: Lu Yun: How to treat the disease after finding someone?

Fu Li: ...a shot.

Luo Ou:? ? ?
