Great General [Rebirth]

Zhao Yongzhou was lying on the bed at night, restless.Cuiyu would not go to the capital with him, neither would Bai.He traveled all this way for a long time, and he didn't know why.Although Zhang Yuming was given one day to prepare everything for the wedding, as his natal family, he had to buy a dowry.After driving for a few days, I was really exhausted. I slept until the sun was shining, and I didn't get up until the sun was up.

The Zhang family began to get busy at night, the house was decorated with lights and festoons, and people were busy coming in and out.After Zhao Yongzhou simply washed and washed, he went to invite Bai Shi early, went to see Cuiyu, told Ruan Yan to bring enough money, and the two went out.

The weather was very changeable today, the sun was shining brightly at first, and it was cloudy from time to time.After shopping all morning, I finalized several betrothal gifts and asked them to send them to Zhang's mansion in the afternoon.Walking out of the shop, one can see the dark clouds in the distant sky of this border town, and there is a faint hint of downpour.

"Little General, let's go back quickly." Ruan Yan persuaded.She was also a little worried, what if it rains heavily for Cuiyu's wedding tomorrow, isn't this just to spoil the little general's interest.

But Zhao Yongzhou didn't care about these, he looked at the cloudy clouds and walked in the opposite direction instead.Ruan Yan had no choice but to follow behind, not knowing where he was going.Go to the end of this street and turn onto a riverside corridor.In the center of the river, a house stands far away, with a memorial archway outside.Ruan Yan looked at the place and knew what it was for.She couldn't help but look at the young man in front of her. It was rumored that Bai Wu was born in Goulan, and what kind of mood did he have when he revisited his old place now.

He also said that Zhao Yongzhou always remembered those brothers in need in the Heguan back then, but he came back with the army last time, and time was urgent, so he couldn't allow him to do other things.This time I went back to Sanqing County for the sake of Bai Shi and Cuiyu, and the other was to visit the Heguan.Those people back then, Ziqing, Yan'an, Junzuo, Meiyun, Qiujin... I don't know if they are still safe.

The people and things of the year flashed in my mind, those young ladies in the hook, their frail bodies covered by green clothes and white shirts, the affectionate eyes on the clear faces, every frown and smile seemed to have infinite affection, completely natural.

When he came back to his senses, he had arrived in front of the gate of Heguan.

During the daytime, there was no one in front of the door, and the brightly colored lanterns hung seemed to have just been replaced.Zhao Yongzhou looked up for a moment, then walked in.

Someone in the hall had seen him a long time ago. He was full of nobleness mixed with chilling coldness. Behind him was a woman wearing a veil. Her almond-shaped eyes were beautiful but with a bit of sharpness. She was always scrutinizing and prying Every move around.No one dared to come forward to receive them, and a servant quickly went upstairs to invite someone.

Zhao Yongzhou looked at those teenagers standing in the yard, by the tile vat, under the corridor, and at the top of the stairs. They were all beautiful, with waist-length hair, wearing thin clothes of different colors, looking into his eyes There is a fearful light.

From the right came the sound of a basin falling on the ground and jingling bells, which made some young men startled and jumped aside.Zhao Yongzhou looked up, and saw a man dressed as a clerk in his twenties standing at the arch, with his mouth open, he yelled for a long time: "My lord..."

It's beans.

Zhao Yongzhou curled his lips into a smile.

The river pavilion has changed hands, which makes Zhao Yongzhou's wish to see Liu Bust's wonderful face come to nothing.The person who came down to meet him was a middle-aged man, short and thin, with a shrewd light in his eyes.He kept flattering and making friends, Zhao Yongzhou gently named several people, but he couldn't find any of them.

Douzi, who had been standing by the side, held back his words, Zhao Yongzhou glanced at him, and said to the new bustard: "You go down first, lend me this man for a while, and I will take him out."

It was inconvenient to speak in the river pavilion, so Zhao Yongzhou took Douzi to the river corridor and stopped at the port.The Douzi followed behind him, wiping away his tears and pouring bitter water over and over again.There was an accident in the restaurant about two years ago, Liu Bust ran away with the money, and the creditor came to him and forced the other young men in the restaurant to pay back the money.The new bustard was sent by the creditor.

When Douzi was talking about this, there were lightning flashes and thunder in the sky, and the clouds were turbulent. He had already predicted that it would definitely rain cats and dogs later.

"Liu Bust mortgaged the house in Heguan and the deeds of sale of the little brothers in the black market. We didn't know it at all. Mei Yun was clever. He had already seen that something was wrong with Liu Bust, so when the creditor came to the door, he had already packed his things. , took advantage of the chaos and escaped. Qiu Jin contradicted someone and was beaten half to death on the spot. Everyone had to take out all the hard-earned money they had saved over the years, and they had to be happy with those people, so as not to suffer from the flesh and blood. Bitter... Not long after, Qiu Jin went, and the county government came to investigate. Those people said that he jumped into the river by himself, but we all know it wasn't... brother An was ill a year ago, and he had a chance to go out. , let Jun left. Yan An is dying, Ziqing tried various methods to find Mr. Zhang, but fortunately Mr. Zhang is a nostalgic person, he communicated with the people here, saying that there is no way to save Yan An anyway. It’s better to let him go, and he will pay the money... After Yan’an was picked up, Ziqing fell ill with plum disease not long after, and was dying. Those people threw him into a mass grave..."

Douzi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Zhao Yongzhou was extremely shocked, and there was a murderous urge in his eyes.He immediately leaned over and whispered: "Master, don't worry, I heard a few days ago that Ziqing is not dead. Some people have seen him and Yan'an in the south of the city, but they don't know exactly where they are hiding, probably You are hiding. This time you come back and have a wedding with the Zhang family, so they must know about such a big move. Maybe they even went to you, but they just didn't dare to show up."

Zhao Yongzhou took a deep breath, his mind was spinning, and he turned around to find someone.Seeing this, Douzi knelt down and hugged his leg.

"Master, please do me a favor. Since I have been with you for a few years, take the villain out of that ghostly place. The villain is willing to be a cow and a horse for the master, please."

Not even a boy is willing to stay in that place, which shows how dark and inhumane it is inside.Thinking of those timid eyes, those twelve or thirteen-year-old children, Zhao Yongzhou lowered his brows, and said to Ruan Xun who had been standing beside him: "There must be something wrong there, you should check it first."

Ruan frowned, she felt that she shouldn't meddle in other people's business, but the little general had already ordered her to do so, so she had no choice but to nod.

Zhao Yongzhou said to Douzi again: "You follow the girl and obey her orders."

Douzi nodded hurriedly.He has been inside for the past four years, and more or less heard something.

"Be careful, if you encounter any trouble, it doesn't matter if you kill a few people." Zhao Yongzhou said to Ruan Xun.

Ruan smiled, "Are you not afraid that I will be in danger?"

Zhao Yongzhou glared at her, turned around and ran towards the south of the city.Just kidding, a person who has served Feng Buran personally for more than ten years, a person who can easily take the knife from his hand, is a weak woman?

Facts have proved that Ruan Yan is indeed an extraordinary woman, this is a later story, let's not mention it for the time being.

The conversation was divided into two sides, Zhao Yongzhou went to Chengnan Town, inquired all the way, asked all the way, no one had seen Ziqing and Yan'an.He was extremely anxious, thinking that Douzi said that Zhang Yuming had operated in it, so he flew back to ask what happened.

Zhang Yuming was arranging tomorrow's seats in the yard and setting up a few tables when he saw the beautiful White Tiger General rush in and drag him into the study.Zhang Yuming is over 50 years old this year, and he can't stand the excitement.Before he could catch his breath, Zhao Yongzhou asked a bunch of questions.Zhang Yuming was confused, but he probably understood what he meant.

"They are in the south of the city? Oh, no wonder. I searched all the other places, but I couldn't find it." Zhang Yuming stroked his beard, recalling something, "I remember. There used to be a Buddhist temple in the south of the city. One master, that is your senior brother, at that time someone died in the river pavilion, and he still went to rescue him."

Zhao Yongzhou's heart moved, and an idea blurted out: "Could it be that they are...!"

"Very likely." Zhang Yuming nodded.

Zhao Yongzhou's eyes were red almost immediately, he forced the pain in his heart, stood up and walked out the door.Seeing the swaying body, Zhang Yuming wanted to follow, but there were so many things at the wedding banquet that he hadn't made any arrangements yet.Fortunately, Zhao Yongzhou recovered when he reached the gate, and ran away like flying.

Zhao Yongzhou actually had a lot of thoughts along the way. For a moment he felt that Ziqing and Yan An were suffering, and he couldn't bear it. At the same time, he thought of his senior brother.At that time, he fled into the army and left his hometown. His senior brother was in Sanqing County, and he had connections with everyone he knew.He is like an ascetic monk walking in the world, constantly helping the world, giving people hope and a way to live.Zhao Yongzhou didn't dare to think about it, every time he remembered his senior brother, he felt a faint pain.

There were few pilgrims in the early years of that Buddhist temple, and now there is no one there all the year round, and it is already dilapidated.When Zhao Yongzhou came to the front of the Buddhist temple, the surrounding area was completely empty, the mountains and birds were silent, and the rain that had been brewing for a long time began to fall with a crackle.

He stood outside the Buddhist temple, not daring to go in.He was afraid that Ziqing and Yan An would not be inside, he was afraid that he would go in and miss Nian Yi, he was afraid that there was no one there.Like the silent nightmare of countless nights, he escaped and feared.As Cuiyu said, he thought he had nothing at first.But later he found out that he was wrong. He didn't have nothing, but he didn't know how to cherish. What he had was kept away little by little. Until the end, he had nothing.

Like sinking into the bottom of the moat, now this Buddhist temple has become his biggest heartbreak.He dared not go in, dare not touch those memories of those years, and even more dare not face them, having the emptiness afterward.

Nothing at all.

Nothing.

Zhao Yongzhou stood in the rain and cried, not knowing who the tears were for.If a person has a soul, will the brother watch him not far away?He smiled wryly, the senior brother told him so many things, but now he can't remember a single word.

Even the senior brother's gentle smiling face and ice-blue eyes were blurred and no longer clear in this heavy rain.

A thin figure walked past the side hall of the Buddhist temple, glanced out, and was immediately stunned.

"Bai'er..."

Ziqing's voice could not be heard through the heavy rain curtain.

Seeing that figure, Zhao Yongzhou cried and laughed, but he couldn't move.Ziqing rushed into the rain, ran over, and hugged him.

Zhao Yongzhou raised his arms to embrace the trembling man in his arms, he was already much taller than Ziqing.He hugged his shoulders tightly and took a deep breath: "Ziqing, I'm back."
