Syndicate Growth Manual

Zhao Chen held his son's small face in both hands, looked at him firmly, and said in a low voice, "If anything happens in the future, you can't hide it from Father. You should tell me as soon as possible, you know?"

"Even if you murder and set fire, you must be the first to tell me!"

Hearing his father's words, a great sense of security envelops Zhao Yuan like the other's strong hands. That feeling may be like a bird in an eggshell, or he was once in his mother's womb... He doesn't know, But really it feels like it should be the same.No one else in the world can give him this sense of security, only his father, only Zhao Chen.

Zhao Yuan nodded, it was rare for him to lie quietly in a certain father's arms.

After Zhao Chen's mood fluctuated, he was caught in a contradiction while holding his son.When his son has grown up, he is no longer like when he was a child, he only needs to ensure that his son is safe and sound, and now there is a marriage that can guarantee his son's life, but this little thing actually tells himself that he does not want to get married...

Is he doting on Anu too much?Zhao Chen questioned himself suspiciously in his heart.Because of Anu's background, their family is really not normal. He always feels that Anu is in danger, so he is always worried about Anu, and he is unavoidably overprotective of his son... But while Anu is relying on him, why doesn't he actually The same is true, strange way Lu Hui said that their father and son depend on each other for life.

It is because they have always depended on each other, and when Anu was about to leave him, there was indeed a time when he was extremely disappointed and even angry.

Zhao Chen secretly sighed, a frown appeared between his brows.

When Wu Heng and others saw Zhao Yuan again, he was no different from usual.Wu Heng walked around Zhao Yuan twice, looking him up and down, Zhao Yuan was still calm and let him watch with his arms akimbo, Cui Ming looked back and forth between the two of them inexplicably.

"Ah Heng, why are you staring at Da Lang?" Cui Ming asked suspiciously.

Zhao Yuan immediately stared at Wu Heng calmly, and the latter patted his head obediently and mumbled.

"It's nothing, I just think that Da Lang is extraordinarily energetic today." He laughed twice, and put Cui Ming's shoulders on his shoulders and walked towards the school yard, "Let's go quickly, or we will be caught if we are late... I heard that today In the evening, there is roasted roe deer meat and wild vegetable soup..."

A few people were fighting all the way, and when they approached the school grounds along the thorn net, there were several soldiers patrolling back and forth outside the net.There seemed to be a tearing tension in the air, reaching its apogee when one of the soldiers yelled "Get the doctor!"

Zhao Yuan and Wu Heng looked at each other and ran outside without saying a word.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Ring the head, you go to the doctor!"

"I'm going right now!!"

Zhao Yuan passed by the soldier who was going to call the doctor, and he smelled blood.He hurried to the people around him, held his breath, and couldn't believe it.

The shepherd—

"Uncle Xianyu!" Zhao Yuan yelled, ran over a few steps, kneeled down and sat down.

Xian Yucen, the herdsman who had gone to Zhao Chen to inform him, fell to the ground covered in blood. Not far away was a horse with a bloody human head tied to it!The moment Zhao Yuan recognized the human head, his whole body trembled.That is Uncle Xianyu's youngest daughter, Xianyu Aman!Sister Ah Man who is going to have a family this fall!

"Uncle... Uncle, what's going on?" He lowered his head, tears dripped onto Xianyu Cen's face, and rolled down on the dry scab like blood, "Who did it?!"

Xianyu Cen seemed to be out of breath, spitting blood, he stretched out his rough hand to grab Zhao Yuan's arm, his voice was so hoarse and so muddy that it was almost indistinguishable: "...Bai..."

Zhao Yuan hurriedly leaned down and put his ear to Xian Yucen's mouth: "What are you talking about?"

"...White Wolf... Disk..."

Zhao Yuan suddenly raised his head to look at him, gritted his teeth and said, "Pan Cheng? Is it Pan Cheng?!"

Xianyu Cen moved his eyelids with difficulty, and then coughed violently, bleeding out. Zhao Yuan lifted his clothes and saw bruises all over his body, the ribs were the most and the largest, and his expression was distorted by anger stand up.This was caused by someone beating him with a blunt object... It must have broken a rib and stabbed a lung!

"Da Lang... in this situation..." The soldiers next to them looked sad, because they often started to have a fever after a day or two after suffering such a serious internal injury, and it was generally difficult to get over it.

Xian Yucen's hand slipped down, and he held Zhao Yuan's hand weakly. He looked at Zhao Yuan, and tried to open his mouth: "Look for... General!"

"Go and see if the doctor is here!" Zhao Yuan's voice was cold, but the ending trembled violently, "Find someone to report to the general, and ask him to come over, saying that he has important news."

"Yes!" The soldiers all dispersed.

Zhao Yuan heard the footsteps of Wu Heng and the others, but his mind went blank. Deep remorse and self-blame gripped his heart, making him almost unable to breathe.He grabbed Xian Yucen's big hand, looked at him and hissed: "...It's my fault... Otherwise, Quan Rong wouldn't have caught you, I was the one who killed Sister Ah Man..."

Xianyu Cen didn't breathe once, like a huge bellows being pulled, but he looked at Zhao Yuan with soft eyes.

"...I...have a grudge..."

Zhao Yuan knew what he was talking about.Xianyucen's wife, Gu Youshi, was kidnapped by the dog army soldiers many years ago. A few days later, her body lay disheveled beside Paozi dozens of miles away, dying a painful death!She left a pair of children to the uncle...

He opened his eyes wide, leaned down and asked Xianyu Cen, "Where's Ah Hu? Where is he?"

Xian Yucen didn't speak, a tear trail rolled down the corner of his eyes.

Zhao Yuan straightened up and looked around in a daze.

There is a lot of wind in the grassland. Uncle Xianyu once told him that the northern grassland is the most open-minded and accepts any ethnic group. Even people who have made mistakes can find a place to live here... Uncle gave up for Ah Man and Ah Hu. Revenge, if he hadn't found the uncle and proposed to use horses to lure Quan Rong, if he hadn't led someone to kill Quan Rong——

Why is a group like Quanrong who only knows how to burn, kill and loot be accepted by the North Grassland?

Can a person who is arrogant and has made mistakes like him still stay here.

The soldier who reported the letter couldn't speak clearly, but Zhao Chen's heart skipped a beat, with an extremely ominous premonition.

"You said you are a herdsman, and your head will be hung immediately?" He asked the little soldier as he walked out.

"Back to the general... yes, yes."

Immediately hang people's heads, which is the typical way of the Quan Rong people to treat prisoners of war... Zhao Chen quickened his pace, and when he got out of the tent, he saw a group of subordinates, and said to Jia Xun: "You send a team of eight people, and go along the way the horses come back. After chasing for ten miles, the herdsman was so badly injured that he couldn't control the horse at all, there must be someone following him first!"

Jia Xun let out a snort, turned around and left quickly.

Wei Hong and the others followed Zhao Chen to the outside of the thorn net with heavy faces.What did they fight in Xiguan for several years?Isn't it to protect the people of Zhao State and these ordinary herdsmen around Xiguan?

Such a thing happened.

The attendant doctor arrived before Zhao Chen, he knelt down to carefully examine Xianyu Cen's wound, put it on his chest and listened, then looked up at Zhao Yuan.

Zhao Yuan asked eagerly: "How is it? Will the uncle recover from his injury?"

The attendant shook his head lightly, took a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured some powder into the water bag, then fed it to Xian Yucen to drink, and stuffed a piece of something into his mouth.

"I can only delay for a little time so that he can finish what he wants to say." The doctor's expression and tone were very calm. He had dealt with too many injuries during the war, and he was used to treating himself and others a long time ago. life and death as normal.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuan felt pain and powerlessness besides clenching his hands tightly.In this era, there are no anti-inflammatory drugs, no medical surgery, and the wounded who can be rescued in later generations can only wait to swallow their last breath!

When Zhao Chen came, Xianyu Cen seemed to have erupted with the last burst of vitality, struggling almost to sit up.Zhao Yuan turned pale, stood up and stepped aside.As soon as Zhao Chen recognized Xian Yucen, he guessed the cause and effect. He restrainedly glanced at his son, feeling extremely anxious.

He approached Xianyu Cen, saw Xianyu Cen's eyes kept looking at the side, after a second thought, he said to Zhao Yuan: "You lead the person back, I want to talk to him alone."

Zhao Yuan opened his mouth, finally lowered his head, and gestured to Wu Heng and the others, and they retreated a few meters away together.Seeing this, Wei Hong also stopped others.

Xian Yucen seemed to be relieved, he looked at Zhao Chen eagerly, and said in an airy voice: "Pan...Cheng, let me speak! He...will take... Dalang Sacrifice... Sacrifice—"

Zhao Chen clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes became extremely frightening.

"General...bring back...my son!"

Zhao Chen took a few deep breaths, and when he saw the human head, he solemnly looked into Xian Yucen's eyes and said, "I will bring your son back! I will definitely avenge you and Ah Man!"

The corner of Xian Yucen's mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to laugh, but he didn't succeed.The color of life has almost faded from his face and eyes, and he is still trying to say the last sentence.

"... Be careful... Da Lang..."

Zhao Chen looked at him silently, chewing on Xian Yucen's last words.Xian Yucen was reminding him that young people are impulsive and might be desperate for revenge, maybe Xian Yucen told him Pan Cheng's words alone because he was worried that Anu would fall into the trap.

Thank you for everything you have done for my son and what I promise will be done.

Zhao Chen gently put his hands on Xianyu Cen's frozen face, and carefully closed his eyelids.

"Where's the shelf?" He stood up and asked with his head tilted.

Two soldiers came over carrying the shelf, and carefully moved Xianyu Cen's body onto the shelf.Zhao Chen walked up to the kneeling horse, drew out his dagger and cut the rope, took the girl's head and gently placed her on her father's chest, letting Xianyu Cen hold it tightly with his hands.

"General, how to deal with it?"

Zhao Chen looked at Zhao Yuan, and said, "Choose an auspicious day, choose a place where they used to graze and bury them, and don't put up a tombstone." Putting up a tombstone will easily be destroyed by others. , Everywhere is home, let Xianyu Cen rest in a place he is familiar with.
