Speaking of this, the eyes of Qiu Jin, the son of Tianluo's former general, gradually turned red, feeling a little unsustainable and unable to continue.
Ling Zhen's ability to empathize is not weak, and he is not feeling well at this time.
It turns out that deep down in Brother Qiu's heart, there is also an acne that is difficult to heal and is always bleeding with pus and blood.
Seeing how uncomfortable he was, Huang Ding, a tall and handsome man, patiently patted Qiu Jin on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Brother Qiu, your father is a great hero who stands upright and is the incarnation of the leaf-winged bird of Naga Tower."
Qiu Jin gathered some strength, took a few deep breaths, an excited look burst out in his eyes, and said in a loud voice: "My second major task is to return to the Western Region Tianluo, kill the enemy Kou Ye Shenji, and save my father's life." Qiu Yu takes revenge!"
Lift the wine jar, raise your head and drink it all in one gulp.
Ling Zhen understood the many purposes of Qiu Jin's trip, shared the same hatred, and raised his head to drink from the jar of wine.
I vow to live and die together with my friends!
Huang Ding also took a sip of wine and smacked his lips, "Brother Qiu, since you don't hide anything from me, then as a brother, I have nothing to hide. Look at this -"
His appearance was very different from that of the Central Plains people. He also turned around, allowing Qiu Jin to look at his back.
Ling Zhen stared at it.
On Huang Ding's back, there is a tattoo of a green wolf head with bared teeth.
The appearance is very ferocious, terrifying and lifelike.
"Our Langxiao country is close to icebergs and has many grasslands within its borders. Since ancient times, the 'wolf' has been respected. Civilians are not allowed to embroider patterns related to wolves on their bodies. This is an iron rule."
Huang Ding said slowly and in a deep voice, "The wolf head on my back was made for me by the best tattoo master in the country when I was canonized as the 'King of the North Campus'."
Qiu Jin was startled, raised his eyebrows and said: "The King of the North Campus?!"
Huang Ding nodded and said solemnly: "My real surname is 'Huangfu', and I have the blood of a century-old noble of Langxiao Kingdom. I changed my surname to Huang after I fled to the Central Plains."
"Escape? How could..."
Qiu Jin frowned and said in confusion.
"Twelve years ago, I was falsely accused of treason because of my disagreement with the political leader Gao Miao. Shan Yu was stupid and listened to Gao Miao's slander and sentenced me to death. All the ministers wrote to me one after another and asked for a settlement on my behalf. Life, in the end, I was deprived of both legs, demoted from the dignified king of the North Courtyard to a commoner with a complete loss of cultivation."
Huang Ding said solemnly, "After being demoted, I knew that life in the north was no longer safe, so I planned to go to the Central Plains for refuge. On the way to escape with my family, my newborn daughter unfortunately died of malaria. Her mother My dear couldn't bear the blow and hanged himself while I was sleeping..."
"Your daughter?"
Qiu Jin wondered, "Isn't Xiaojun still alive?"
Huang Ding smiled and shook his head gently.
Next, this man, who was once the king of the First Academy and was born in the northern grassland, slowly revealed the truth in his words.
————
Huang Ding raised his head and took a sip of Tianlang wine, moistened his throat, and continued to tell the story of the past: "I scattered the ashes of my wife and daughter in the canyon of Yanlingguan, and then I was alone in the snowy night, alone. He entered the territory of Longshu alone."
Hearing this, Qiu Jin couldn't help but think of the "Wolf King Looking North" hanging on the west wall of the lobby, and felt a sigh of relief in his heart.
Ling Zhen naturally understood the meaning behind that giant painting and was extremely sad.
"The geese can still return north, but I can never go back to my hometown."
Huang Ding's eyes were filled with overwhelming sadness, and he said in a deep voice, "After coming to the Central Plains, I once had the idea of surrendering to the Longshu court, but after all, I was born in the northern grasslands, and I was asked to lead troops to kill myself. How can this be done, my clansmen? When I was most confused in my life, it was you, Brother Qiu, who showed me a clear path."
"Oh? What do you say?"
Qiu Jin was aroused and couldn't help but ask questions in a hurry.
"I heard that there is a Huangshan Mountain in the Central Plains. It is said to be the 'most amazing mountain in the world' that you don't need to see when you come back. At that time, I happened to change my surname to 'Huang' and was bored, so I decided to go up the mountain to enjoy the scenery to relieve my boredom. ."
Huang Ding said leisurely and contentedly, "On Mount Huangshan, I saw the powerful bullying the weak, so I intervened. My legs were crippled, and I barely had 30% of the fighting strength of my heyday. I relied on two iron crutches to desperately resist dozens of people. When I was unable to hold off the enemy's attack on my own and was about to die in battle, Brother Mengqiu, you, gave me a generous helping hand and repelled the enemies."
Ling Zhen sat on the edge of the hot spring bath and thought to himself: "This is too coincidental. In the south of the Jinxiu Dynasty, there is also a mountain named after Huang..."
"It's a small effort, why bother?"
Qiu Jin waved his hand and said with a grin, "Brother Huang, you are the one who uses the crutch to fight against the enemy. Your bravery is really admirable! This is why I insisted on pulling Brother Huang to take over."
"Brother Qiu, your words are too flattering to me!"
Huang Ding, the former king of the North Academy, became excited and said, "You don't mind that I am down and out, and you don't care that I am a foreign barbarian from the North. You are willing to drink sworn wine with me, become sworn brothers with me, and worship me as brothers of life and death. Do you know that I How grateful are you? At that time, I decided that I have only one brother in the Central Plains in this life, and that is you Qiu Jin, brother Qiu!"
Qiu Jin solemnly picked up the wine jar and said loudly: "Brother Huang, you and I are both upright men. Stop saying these pretentious words. They are all in the wine. Drink!"
"drink!"
The two jars collided, and a lot of wine spilled into the spring.
The two heroes raised their heads and drank.
Ling Zhen looked at this scene with blood boiling in his heart.
The young man in green robe secretly sighed: "These are the brothers who truly share the same spirit with each other and have no other intentions!"
"Do you still remember that night? We all drank too much. You touched my fox fur coat and said that my clothes are easy to wear, thick and warm, so you might as well go into the fur business. The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Chapter 2 After we parted two days later, I went to the Liaodong area and resold animal skins with the few assets I had."
Huang Ding said with joy on his face, "After working for five or six years, I became a big fur farmer in Liaodong. I saved a fortune of thousands of dollars by doing business. I will have no worries about food and drink in this life!"
Qiu Jin suddenly understood and couldn't help but punch him, and said with a joyful smile: "Okay, you made a fortune from this!"
Huang Ding, a tall and sturdy northern man, also said with a smile: "Isn't that right? At that time, I had too much money to spend, so I retired from the fur industry and took my baby daughter to Tongzhou. The Wangbei Villa was built on Purple Mountain."
"daughter?"
Qiu Jin asked in confusion.
Huang Ding nodded, with a happy and sweet smile on his face, "I have been working in Liaodong for about half a year. The parents of a poor family suddenly found me and said that they had too many children and asked me if I would do it. Adopt one. I saw that they brought a little girl of two or three years old. Her face was pink and tender, and she was very cute. I couldn’t help but think of my daughter who unfortunately died young, so I adopted her and named her To 'know the man'. It is said that men are afraid of falling into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. I hope that my daughter can keep her eyes open when she marries someone in the future. Don't know someone unknown and fall in love with the wrong man."
"Shijun, Huang Shijun...is that the little girl in yellow clothes?"
Qiu Jin seemed to understand completely.
Huang Ding nodded and said: "Exactly, for the past eleven years, I have raised her as a boy. She is not my biological child, but better than my biological child. Alas, I just doted on her too much, so she got used to this behavior. The stinky problem..."
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" and the door of the wooden shed was kicked open.
Outside the door, a little girl in yellow stood with a sharp knife in her hand.
Besides Huang Ding's daughter Huang Shijun, whom Huang Ding has adopted for more than ten years, who else is there?
"Xiaojun, what are you doing with a knife?!"
Huang Ding shouted sternly, "This is the bathing place for me and my friends. Can you, a girl like you, come here? Close the door quickly!"
It turned out that Huang Shijun was still worried about Qiu Jin's humiliation just now, so he planned to kill him with a sharp knife while he was bathing.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the door of the wooden shed, I listened to all the words of my father Huang Ding, and unexpectedly learned the cruel fact that I was not my biological child.
At this moment, the girl's eyes were red and her whole body was shaking. She said in a trembling voice with infinite sadness: "Dad, this is fake, right? Tell me this is fake, hurry up!"
