Efforts to kill the enemy is not as good as the full level of tea art

When Guan Ximing said vaguely that Zhang Laohei was not in good condition, Zhuo Yue thought he was sick, but he didn't expect the condition to be so serious.

"Brother Zhuo, don't provoke him when you go in later." Guan Ximing tugged on Zhuo Yue's sleeve, frowned and said, "Brother Hei has a very bad temper these days, last time when Brother Fu Wang came to visit, the two had a big argument. Fu Wang was so angry that he walked away and never came again. Sigh, just wait a little longer..."

Zhuo Yue was a little funny: "I don't know what kind of dog temper he is, so I don't need you to tell me."

"No, oh...you don't know." Guan Ximing sighed, "Let's go, let's go in."

Zhang Laohei lived in a small courtyard with three or four other families. They lived in a wing room on the west side. It was a very cold day and the sun could not find the west side. The room looked gloomy and gloomy.

"Why don't you change the place?" Zhuo Yue looked around, the yard was also very dilapidated, and the other two neighbors didn't seem to be neat people, "Did A Danzhu give birth just now? Live in this kind of place How to do it."

Guan Ximing patted his thigh: "Brother Fu Wang and I both said that we wanted to change places for him, but he didn't want to! No, I won't say anything if I'm so angry, go in and see for yourself..."

Zhuo Yue pushed open the door of the west wing, and as soon as he entered, he was staggered by the damp and putrid smell, like a pile of rags that hadn't been washed for a long time.Zhuo Yue wrinkled his nose, always feeling that there was something familiar and disgusting in this rotten air, but he couldn't remember what it was at the moment.

There was no sunlight in the room, and it was very dark. The square hut was divided into two halves by a cloth curtain, and a dim oil lamp was lit in the half inside.As soon as Zhuo Yue came in, he brought a gust of cold wind, which made the curtains shake, alarming the people inside.

"Close the door! Who is it—Old Zhuo?"

Zhuo Yue looked at the person running out in shock.I haven't seen him for nearly two months, but the eight-foot man has lost a lot of weight, his cheekbones have protruded, his eye sockets have sunken, and his unkempt hair has not been washed for an unknown amount of time. overhead.The waist of the jacket was loose, and he no longer had the strong and mighty appearance of the past.

"Old Hei...you—" Zhuo Yue was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly, "You, why did you make yourself like this?"

Zhang Laohei went over and pulled him in, and closed the door behind him: "Come in quickly."

As soon as the door was closed, the smell in the room became stronger.Zhang Laohei looked at him up and down with his hands, and forced a smile: "When did you come back? I thought you never came back once you went to the grassland."

"What nonsense, didn't I promise that Adanzhu would come back when she gave birth?" Zhuo Yue frowned, "Don't talk about it. Where is Adanzhu? Has the child been born yet?"

Zhang Laohei is very thoughtful, if there is anything that can make him undergo such a drastic physical and mental change, it can only be A Danzhu.

Sure enough, after Zhang Laohei was silent for a while, he dragged Zhuo Yue to behind the curtain.

The couch was messy, piled up with thick bedding and clothes, and Adanzhu was lying on it with her eyes closed, her lips turned white, as if she had fallen asleep.And her arm was tightly wrapped around a cloth bag, as if a hen was protecting her cubs.

Zhang Laohei stroked Adanzhu's hair soothingly, and gently picked up the cloth bag from her arms. When Zhuo Yue looked at her, he was startled for a moment, and almost took a step back.

The baby who was wrapped in five or six layers had a head as big as a bucket, eyelids drooping, and most importantly - a lip like a rabbit.

He was born with a deformity!

Zhuo Yue was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time, and countless chaotic thoughts flashed quickly.

how come?The child of A Danzhu and Zhang Laohei in the previous life was obviously a healthy white and fat boy. He even hugged it with his own hands. The baby had a ruddy complexion and a loud cry. It was extremely healthy, and he could never remember it wrong!

Why—why in this world...

A Danzhu on the couch suddenly struggled, as if caught by some nightmare.Zhang Laohei hurriedly put the child back into her arms, and took Zhuo Yue to the outside room.

Zhuo Yue was still immersed in shock, and grabbed Zhang Laohei with his backhand and asked urgently: "Why is this happening? Is it natural, or..."

Zhang Laohei pulled a saddle for Zhuo Yue to sit on, squatted beside him, and said with a wry smile: "It was supposed to give birth in the middle of this month, but a cold wave came at the end of last month. She was uncomfortable at first, and then she was about to give birth." ...But where can I find a midwife? Later, anyway, her own body is broken, and the child is also like that..."

Zhuo Yue frowned, unconsciously rubbing his middle finger and thumb, a little anxious: "Can I see a doctor? I have to find a way to cure it."

Zhang Laohei snorted softly: "The doctor here has a fart!"

He gritted his teeth and said with a sneer: "The quack doctors who came here said after reading it that she was suffering from a blood loss and that she couldn't take care of her health. She also said that a child like this should not be born. Since the month is not very old, it's fine to find a chamber pot and drown her." mercy."

His face was already thin and thin, but when he talked about the excitement, his veins twitched and his eyes shone like a white rainbow, which made Zhuo Yue startled.

"If you don't seek a doctor, what's the use of being here by yourself?" Zhuo Yue said in a deep voice, "Those bastard quack doctors can't explain why, but there are always good doctors. Just wait, I will ask General Lou for sure." Find a good doctor."

"Fart!" Zhang Laohei suddenly roared, "I don't want to ask others!"

Zhuo Yue was taken aback, and said in disbelief, "No, why do you care about such a big event? What face do you want? Is it important for A Danzhu and the child, or your face?"

Zhang Laohei clenched his fists and gave him a cold look: "It has nothing to do with my face... the doctors here are useless."

The fire in Zhuo Yue's heart burst into flames.Although Zhang Laohei had a bad temper in the past, he was straightforward and not a person who said nothing.But now he seems to be covered with a thick layer of armor, huddled in the shell, oil and salt can't get in.

"Can you fucking listen to other people's suggestions?" Zhuo Yue was furious, stood up and kicked the stool away, "This one is useless and that one is useless. You are so capable, which one would you fucking say is useful?"

He was just saying something angry.But Zhang Laohei's jaw suddenly twitched, and he slowly raised his face with bags under his eyes and sunken cheeks, a deep anger flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, you are all capable, but I am not capable." He slowly stood up and looked down at Zhuo Yue, "You, Xiaoguan, and that surname Fu are all capable and capable. Just me Zhang Laohei is a trash who can't even take care of his wife and children."

Zhuo Yue stared at him dumbfounded: "You, have you been possessed by a ghost! Did I fucking mean that—"

Zhang Laohei pushed him violently, pulled the door to push him out, and slammed the door shut with a bang: "I don't have any skills, and I don't need you to come to my house to tell me what to do!"

Zhuo Yue's nose was almost knocked out, and he was so angry that he slammed the door until the ground shook: "My surname is Zhang, you don't want to be so fucking messy here! I've stunned you! Come out and make it clear! It's just you who broke the wall and broke the door!" I can kick a piece of shit with one kick!"

"Brother Zhuo, Brother Zhuo!" Guan Ximing, who had been waiting outside, rushed forward and pulled Zhuo Yue aside, "I knew you two would be ruined if you collided with each other. Don't be angry."

Zhuo Yue pointed at the door in disbelief and said angrily: "Guan Ximing, do you think he is possessed? Or is he crazy? Was his brain kicked by a donkey or the door was squeezed?"

Guan Ximing dragged Zhuo Yue out again, and sighed helplessly: "Don't be angry, Brother Zhuo, actually it's not Brother Hei... Do you mean to ask the general to help Brother Hei find a doctor?"

"Yeah, could it be that I'm fucking wrong too?"

"It's because I didn't remind you, you can't say that." Guan Ximing sighed, his eyes were a little sad, "Brother Hei and Brother Fu Wang have been venting their anger because of this."

He lowered his voice, and quickly told Zhuo Yue all the things that happened in the past two months, which made Zhuo Yue frown again and again.

It turned out that Zhang Laohei had begged Fu Wang to find his midwife since A Danzhu felt unwell for the first time.The best midwife in the whole city was a woman surnamed Zhang. Women with a little family background in the city loved to ask her to serve them during childbirth, and the gift money they received was naturally not cheap.Zhang Laohei's money bag was empty, and he went all out for the smooth delivery of A Danzhu. He asked Guan Ximing, Xiao Ga and Fu Wang to pool some money together, and finally settled the midwife.

Unfortunately.A Danzhu suddenly gave birth prematurely before the full month, and that day coincided with the birth of an official's wife in the city, so the days collided.Zhang Laohei was sweating profusely taking care of A Danzhu, so he asked Fu Wang to go to the midwife to see if he could say something nice and add some money to invite the midwife to them.But Fu Wang went, not only did not invite the chattel mother, but also sent her to the mansion of the official family.

"Brother Fu Wang didn't do it on purpose." Guan Ximing said bitterly, "The wife who gave birth happened to be in charge of ordnance in the army, and she was in charge of Brother Fu Wang. Brother Fu Wang said that there will be no more wars in the future. The steward can't afford to offend, otherwise the brothers will have a hard time."

Zhuo Yue's heart was heavy, but he couldn't refute it.

Although the war is cruel, it is the best time for these soldiers with no background to be promoted.As long as you can fight and kill, you can be reused by the general, and you will have a bright future.

But in peaceful times, what you look at is relationships, contacts, and who is the most powerful.If he was still fighting, Zhang Laohei could still fight the official, but now he dare not offend.

But Fu Wang could see this clearly, but Zhang Laohei didn't necessarily understand it.

Sure enough, Guan Ximing sighed: "Zhang Laohei felt that Brother Fu Wang and the official's family had harmed his sister-in-law and children, so he came to make trouble... Originally, the adults of that family wanted to punish them by military law, but General Lou himself came forward The matter was settled. Brother Fu Wang was transferred from the Ordnance Department to write documents in the tent of the Chinese Army, and Brother Hei was dismissed from his post and stayed at home all the time."

Zhuo Yue understood why Zhang Laohei was filled with resentment when he heard that he was going to beg Lou Changfeng.

He must be blaming Lou Changfeng for not upholding justice.

But Zhang Laohei didn't care about this matter at all, it's just that the fans of the authorities couldn't see clearly.It is estimated that if it is not for Zhuo Yue's face, Lou Changfeng may not even take care of the affairs of several people, and he will not preside over any "fairness".

Although it seems cruel, it is the truth.

Zhuo Yue let out a long sigh, and rubbed his forehead fiercely: "Damn it, it's only been two months, so many things have happened."

He wanted to complain why Guan Ximing didn't write to inform him.But when I think about it, I was also full of melancholy in Dari Achi at that time, and I might not be able to relax.

"You can't just ignore him like this." Zhuo Yue thought for a while, "I still have to find a doctor, as long as A Danzhu and the child's health can be cured, that idiot will wake up. Let me think of a way, you go ahead go."

He sent Guan Ximing away, and walked back to the station slowly.Li Changxing went to see Lou's father today to discuss the details of the mutual market, and did not follow him to see Zhang Laohei. When he came back in the afternoon and saw his sad face, he couldn't help being stunned: "Brother Zhuo, who upset you?"

Zhuo Yue sighed, and told him everything about today.

Li Changxing couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "I thought it was a big deal. Tomorrow I will send someone to find two capable witch doctors, and it will be over after they are cured."

Zhuo Yue quickly waved his hand: "Forget it, I don't believe in your witch—"

witch doctor?

correct!

Zhuo Yue shuddered and suddenly remembered in horror.

He knew why there was a familiar yet unfamiliar smell in Zhang Laohei's room.

It was clearly the smell of the soot soup that the old man made for him when Li Changxing took him to see the high priest!He had also smelled this smell in Dari Achi's royal tent.

Zhang Laohei is a man from the Central Plains, when did he come into contact with the witch doctor?

Seeing the confusion on Zhuo Yue's face, Li Changxing grimaced and grabbed his hand: "Brother Zhuo, what are you thinking? Tell me?"

Zhuo Yue suppressed the panic in his heart, and slowly told Li Changxing about the matter.

Li Changxing raised his eyebrows after hearing this: "At the border of the Central Plains, the two ethnic groups are mixed, and there are not a few people in the Central Plains who believe in witch doctors. Moreover, A Danzhu is originally from the grasslands. It is estimated that the witch doctor she went to find is not the same. strangeness."

"No, no, it's more than that." Zhuo Yue waved his hands again and again, frowning, "All of this is... too similar to what happened in the previous life."

That's right, it's too similar.

After the great victory at Yulin Pass, Lou's father and Lou Chuyun were safe and sound. Zhuo Yue thought that because of Li Changxing, the fate of his previous life had been completely reversed.Although they have experienced many ups and downs, they are now on a completely different destiny track from their previous life, and they no longer need to fear the shadow of their previous life.

But just when he was rejoicing and full of joy, the fate of the willows and flowers showed a ferocious sneer at him again.

Li Changxing's face darkened: "Past life? Adanzhu also experienced premature birth in his previous life?"

Zhuo Yue rubbed his forehead fiercely: "No, she gave birth to a child very smoothly in her previous life. But when the child was one year old, he was accidentally knocked into a paralyzed man by a dandy on the street, and it couldn't be cured. He and Fu Wang It was also because of this that we had a big fight, and then Adanzhu started to make a mess of witchcraft at home..."

The more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he was terrified, and his whole body felt cold.

Thinking about it now, many things did not happen.It's just ahead of time.

It's like the marriage between Dari Achi and Zhongyuan.Because of the great victory at Yulin Pass, the Zhagan people were defeated nearly a year earlier than in the previous life, which also logically promoted the marriage to happen a year earlier than in the previous life.

And because of the great victory at Yulin Pass, Zhang Laohei, Fu Wang and others lived a life without war nearly a year earlier than in their previous lives.

It is precisely because there is no war, the status of ordinary soldiers has declined, and Fu Wang dare not compete with the wife of the official family for a midwife, which led to the current situation.

Things are linked one after another, and the stones are thrown into the water, and the ripples disappear layer by layer, revealing the unchanging coldness of fate.

Now that I think about it, maybe some things are destined to happen.

For example, the child's injury, Zhang Laohei's downfall, the dispute between Zhang Fu and Zhang Fu, and the weird witchcraft...

And this series of things finally leads to the end point——

Zhuo Yue shivered suddenly.

——It was the battle of Quicksand Nest, his death in battle.

Li Changxing seemed to have thought of this too, and the expression on his face darkened.He took Zhuo Yue's hand, held it tightly in his palm, and said in a deep voice, "No."

This person was obtained by him through untold hardships, and no one can take it away from him.

Not even fate.

Zhuo Yue forced a smile, but the shadow over his heart could not be dissipated.
