The hero has an unworthy disciple

Duan Ganzhuo hunched over and stood still for a while, squinting his eyes and looking not far away, he saw the herbal tea stand in his memory, his heart thumped to the ground, he finally found the right place.If you really accidentally find the wrong one, you probably don't have the strength to leave.

Duan Ganzhuo's good half of his lips were dry and chapped a few times. When he thought of the herbal tea stand, he couldn't help sticking out half of his tongue and licking it.But Duan Ganzhuo stood there blankly for a while and didn't have the courage to walk over. He thought that it would be too unfair to be beaten to death by someone who pretended to be a ghost after he got here, so let's bear with it.Then he rolled his throat dryly, and he didn't even squeeze out half a mouthful of saliva from his smoldering throat.

Before he was about to leave, Duan Ganzhuo wanted to go around, but suddenly he heard the horse in the stable sneezing, so he moved his mind carefully, and moved to the side of the stable.

Duan Ganzhuo carefully leaned his crutches aside first, and then slowly sat on the ground while supporting the wooden pillars beside the stable.Duan Ganzhuo leaned half of his body on the stable, stretched one arm into the manger enough, and sure enough, his fingers felt a bit of coolness on the bottom of the manger.Duan Ganzhuo excitedly arched his body again, carefully brought out a few drops of water with his fingers that were not close together, then impatiently pulled the kerchief to face his mouth, and after doing this several times, his mouth was moist some.

Duan Ganzhuo leaned against the stable with a satisfied face, feeling that he had never drank such sweet water.After sitting reluctantly for a while, Duan Ganzhuo wanted to get up, and suddenly saw a person walking in front of him, so he lowered his head and covered his face.

"Hey, sit here." The man seemed to put a bench next to him and patted it, then put a tea bowl beside him, "Drink a bowl of herbal tea to quench your thirst, so you can hurry on your way."

Duan Ganzhuo was grateful and nodded slightly, but he struggled on the ground for a while but couldn't stand up, so he stretched out a hand and took the tea bowl carefully and impatiently.

Father Xue simply sat next to him, "Look at you... Did you also escape from the military service?"

Duan Ganzhuo just took off his scarf, he was stunned when he heard his words, and lowered his head guiltily.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Father Xue said to himself: "It's not the place you escaped from. Didn't you hear what they said just now? There is a chicken cage slope to the north of our place. There are many soldiers there. Don't go there." ... Do you think what I just said is right? What good is there in war? My Fuguan was conscripted by them two years ago, and I still don't know whether it is dead or alive. His mother thinks about him very closely, Crying every day, I cried myself to death. The day before yesterday, I just buried her a half-inch coffin, which cost ten taels of silver! These days, only the coffin boards are valuable, and when I die... only I'm afraid I don't even have anyone to wrap me in a mat... It's only been a few years of peace, and you're fighting again, you foreigners see a lot of things, when do you think this battle will be over?"

Duan Ganzhuo thought of the bleakness he saw along the way, and the two years of war, he couldn't help feeling bitter in his heart, did he do something wrong?Was saving Yuanke right or wrong?Is this situation in the world my fault...

"I said that Duan Ganzhuo will definitely not come!" A man drinking tea at the tea stand slapped the table heavily and yelled loudly, which made Duan Ganzhuo's hand holding the tea bowl tremble in fright, and he could not help but prick his ears to listen. his words.

The man said anxiously, "Zhan Yuan made it clear that he used General Ping Rong's body as a bait. How could Duan Zhuo be so stupid? Besides, Zhan Yuan has been stationed here for three days without fighting the Tartars." It's been a month, and that Duan Ganzhuo would have come long ago if he wanted to."

Another person said: "Guang Chong Duan Ganzhuo's friendship with General Rong, can he not come? You have seen all the notices posted a few days ago. Zhan Yuan clearly said that he was going to find the magic medicine for Duan Ganzhuo." I can detoxify him, I don't want to kill him at all, but I want to save him..."

"Hey! Fooling Duan Ganzhuo, Zhan Yuan is so cunning, he must be coaxed away and he will be chopped off. Who in the world doesn't know that the secret Duan Ganzhuo holds can kill Jiuding? In Zhan Yuan's hands Just having the military power is not at ease, only when Duan Ganzhuo is completely eliminated can the world's mouths be blocked, and his throne can be safely seated..."

"No, no, you didn't read what the notice said. Who can find Duan Ganzhuo and reward him with a thousand pieces of gold to seal Houlu. Ten notices have been issued in seven days, repeating that he cannot hurt Duan Ganzhuo. Whoever dares to hurt him will implicate the nine clans. Zhan Yuan really wants to It is enough to kill him and put a reward on his head, why is it so troublesome? I think the rumors in the rivers and lakes are true in all likelihood, that Zhanyuan is a good Longyang, and Duan Ganzhuo is his forbidden son, the two of them are the ones... ..."

"No, that's not the case at all. You can believe this kind of nonsense. No matter what you say, Duan Ganzhuo is also a well-known hero in the world. It is impossible for him to do such a thing. Besides, if you don't tell me Duan Ganzhuo is Zhan Yuan's master, their masters and apprentices can still do this upside-down thing..."

Before he finished listening, Duan Ganzhuo felt ashamed and ashamed, his head almost fell into his crotch.It turns out...that he and himself are so unbearable in the eyes of the world...

Forget it, I only have a few days to live, so why should I care about these things?It's just pitiful and defiled him for no reason... Duan Ganzhuo couldn't help but smile wryly, his life has really been muddled, he can't tell right from wrong and has harmed countless people, why does he exist in this world?It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous...

Duan Ganzhuo's eyes couldn't help getting wet when he thought about it, thinking that since he was a child, he was timid and afraid of ghosts, but he only cherished his life. With this kind of heart, he should be an ant honestly for the rest of his life. Why did he go into the temple to entrap the people of the world? ?How innocent they are... It doesn't matter if they died in the poisonous cave, or they were eaten to death by humans, it would be considered a sin, but they survived desperately... There is no benefit in this world to survive, but a lot of harm, It's really harmful without knowing it...

Father Xue snorted twice, and said to him: "These people are all local hooligans from nearby villages. They are the most evasive in escaping military service. Whenever they have free time, they just talk nonsense here. What? I don’t know Broken Pole and Zhanyuan, but I have seen General Pingrong! I even served him tea! Just listen to my little old man tell you in detail..."

Only then did Duan Ganzhuo come back to his senses, he poured the herbal tea into his mouth in a panic, and put the bowl aside.He took out another ingot of silver from his pocket and put it into the bowl, then slowly got up from the ground while supporting the stable.

Father Xue stared straight at the ingot of silver, put it in his mouth to bite, and then quickly grabbed his right wrist, "There are too many, I can't find them, this bowl of herbal tea is worthless."

Duan Ganzhuo was startled, afraid that he would see him like this, so he quickly took a step back and struggled for a long time before breaking free.

Feeling his hands were sticky, Father Xue looked down and saw that the hand he had just grabbed was covered with rotten flesh and maggots.Father Xue widened his eyes suspiciously and looked closely at his hand, only to find that his hand was already rotten, only two fingers still had a bit of carrion, and the remaining three fingers were nothing but bones.

Seeing that he was still trembling and staring at his hand, Duan Ganzhuo hurriedly hid it in his sleeve. After thinking for a while, he took out an ingot of silver from his pocket with his left hand and held it up. Niu, struggling to open his mouth and tongue, said: "Trouble old man... please do me a favor... sell me the bullock cart."

Only now did Father Xue see his face clearly, and sat down on the ground in fright.Father Xue was so frightened that he couldn't utter a word, he just collapsed on the ground and waved his hands wildly.

Duan Ganzhuo hurriedly covered his face scarf, panted heavily and took out all the silver and copper coins in his arms, and handed them to Father Xue with both hands, and said earnestly: "Go down... bury him... he is good, no Fighting... bullock carts... can't move..."

"Let's go, let's go..." Father Xue crawled back two steps trembling, touched a stone at once, picked it up without thinking about Sanqi 21, and smashed it on Duan Ganzhuo's head.

Duan Ganzhuo lay down on the ground for a while, and vaguely heard the cry of "catch ghosts", he was so frightened that he woke up, half rolled and half crawled to hide in a panic.

The whole time he hid under the stable in fear, until late at night, Duan Ganzhuo dared to come out, he didn't even bother to find the crutches, so he crawled away in a panic.

The herbal tea stand was only twenty miles away from Zhan Yuan's army, but Duan Ganzhuo walked five steps at a time, and it took three days and three nights to get there.At that time, the sun was very hot, and Duan Ganzhuo didn't get a drop of water, and he passed out when he climbed to the camp not far away.

When he woke up again, he saw a group of soldiers with swords and guns surrounding him in fear.

"Didn't General Qi say that anyone who comes should be reported to him? This person..."

"Human?! How can this be called a human? It's not an evil ghost crawling out of the grave... Hey, he opened his mouth. Go over and listen to what he has to say."

"Why don't you listen?"

"Hey, I'm giving you a good thing. If he is really Duan Ganzhuo, you will make a lot of money. Go and listen..."

"What did you say? Say it again..."

"What did he say?"

The soldier who carefully approached Duan Ganzhuo's mouth blinked blankly, "He said... he is Duan Ganzhuo, and he came to kill and collect the body for Chen Si. Will this... be reported to General Qi?"

"Of course I report it. After waiting for three months, I finally got this thing. Whatever it is, report it to General Qi first!"

Soon, Qi Ming strode over and said loudly, "Where is the man?"

A soldier hurriedly pointed, "That!"

Duan Ganzhuo had already slowed down, slumped on the ground with his body crooked, grinned half of the corner of his mouth at him, and said hoarsely: "Qi Ming."

After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Qi Ming's heart twitched violently, and he quickly squatted over, "Get water quickly! Duan Gan... Are you Mr. Duan Gan?"

Duan Ganzhuo hurriedly nodded, fearing that he would not believe it, he thought for a while and said, "Beijin."

Qi Ming opened his mouth wide and his hands froze. "Beijin" is the secret signal for Zhu Yumen's operation. It was in that operation that Qi Ming missed, and it was thanks to Duan Ganzhuo who came to rescue him personally that he escaped from danger...

Qi Ming never expected to see him like this again, and thought that when he first entered the Zhuyu Sect, he had taken care of him a lot. Grotto... Thinking about these past events, Qi Ming felt sore, his eyes turned red, he sniffed and said: "Sir, you are suffering... I'll go and tell the general."

Qi Ming slowed down again before getting up, "Take good care of it! If you make a mistake, be careful about your lives!" After finishing speaking, he glanced at him before quickly running to Zhanyuan's tent.
