He entered the house without saying a word, and a moment later, he took out two long swords and a package.
Di Yun and she had been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and now they were husband and wife. How could he not know what she was thinking? He shook his head.
He took a long sword and a bundle and said gently, "Junior sister, you are already pregnant. I can go alone to repay this debt of gratitude."
You stay at home and raise our child well.
When the child grows up, tell him that although his father was very ordinary and unremarkable, he was at least grateful and not a coward who clung to life…!
finished,
He looked at Qi Fang with boundless tenderness, then gently touched her slightly protruding belly.
He gritted his teeth, turned around, and strode away!
Qi Fang was stunned for several moments after he left.
Then she took a few quick steps, leaned against the door frame, and looked at Di Yun's back with tears streaming down her face. She murmured softly, "Senior brother, senior brother, you have never been ordinary or extraordinary. In my heart, you are a great hero who stands tall and upright, a true hero!"
You can rest assured...
If you don't come back, I... I will definitely take good care of the child. Once he's grown up and settled, I... I'll come down to find you right away..."
…………
Northern Song Dynasty.
At the foot of Shaolin Temple, there is a farmhouse.
At this moment, wisps of smoke are rising from the farmhouse...
The lady of the farmhouse is cooking a delicious meal in the kitchen.
The owner was killing a chicken.
The two would occasionally glance at each other through the kitchen door, their eyes filled with happiness.
suddenly.
The woman who was cooking smelled a burnt smell, exclaimed in surprise, and scolded, "Oh dear, the food is burnt! It's all your fault, Brother Qiao. You keep glancing at me all the time. I'm all old and haggard now, what's there to look at?"
The man killing the chicken laughed loudly: "A'Zhu, even if you're a haggard old woman, in my heart, Qiao Feng, you're still the most beautiful haggard old woman in the world."
Then, glancing at the path outside, he continued with a smile, "And don't worry, your second and third brothers aren't picky eaters. Even if your cooking is burnt, they won't mind..."
Relieved by her husband, Azhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief...
It has to be said that environment and mood can really change a person.
At this time, Qiao Feng would also say a few sweet and witty things to A'Zhu.
And at this time, A'Zhu would also say a few coquettish words and act cute...
On that day,
As they left Qixia Town, Qiao Feng was filled with rage, wishing he could grind the mastermind, Murong Bo, to dust...
Then, much like in the original story, Qiao Feng reunited with his father and encountered the Sweeper Monk, resolving their past grievances.
Qiao Feng took A'Zhu back to the farmhouse where his adoptive parents had lived when he was a child, and they began their idyllic rural life...
Then, as if bound by fate, he, Xu Zhu, and Duan Yu became sworn brothers by chance.
Nowadays,
Qiao Feng had invited Duan Yu and Xu Zhu to his home, which is why he killed a chicken to prepare a grand welcome for his two sworn brothers...
"Judging by the time, my two sworn brothers should have arrived by now..."
At this moment, Qiao Feng looked up at the path outside the door.
Just as he was eagerly anticipating what was to come, two people rushed in from outside.
One of them was dressed as a bald monk, and the other was dressed as a scholar.
The scholar-like young man, holding a notice in his hand, strode into the courtyard, shouting, "Brother! Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"
Qiao Feng was taken aback.
He smiled wryly: "Third brother, what's all the fuss about? Don't worry, your eldest and second brothers are both capable enough to hold up the sky for you even if it falls down."
"Brother, I'm afraid we can't handle this..."
Although Xu Zhu was no longer a monk, he still habitually kept his head shaved and shook his head with a bitter expression.
Qiao Feng was taken aback.
Duan Yu handed over the notice.
At this moment, A'Zhu heard her brother Duan Yu's exclamation and also came out of the kitchen, stood next to Qiao Feng, and looked at the notice.
Qiao Feng was considerably taller than A'Zhu, and being considerate of his wife, he held the notice very low so that A'Zhu could easily see it...
When the husband and wife saw everything on the notice, their expressions changed drastically.
Qiao Feng was even more shocked, his eyes filled with a bitter smile: "Second brother is right, this matter, I, Qiao Feng, really cannot bear it..."
A'Zhu was also stunned for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Qiao Feng's hand.
Haven't spoken yet.
Qiao Feng understood what she meant as if by telepathy, and nodded emphatically: "A'Zhu, Master Chen has done us, my husband and I, a great favor. Even if it costs me my life, I will do my part."
"Let's go together!"
"Let's go together!"
Xu Zhu and Duan Yu both spoke in high-pitched voices, their blood boiling with excitement!
Azhu shook her head: "Brother Qiao, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean for you to go to Qixia Town to help Master Chen. Rather, I want to go with you all...!"
"A'Zhu, your martial arts skills..."
Qiao Feng was taken aback.
A'Zhu smiled and held Qiao Feng's hand tightly: "If you are gone, there is no meaning in my life."
Besides, Master Chen has also done me a great favor.
The phrase "sacrifice one's life for righteousness" isn't just for men; we women can do it too…
"A'Zhu..."
Qiao Feng was moved and held A'Zhu's hand tightly.
Then he burst into laughter. To have such a brother, to have such a wife... that was enough for him in this life. He had no fear, no regrets!
Xu Zhu and Duan Yu also laughed loudly.
The four of them strode out of the courtyard.
Just before leaving.
Qiao Feng and A'Zhu both took a deep look at the farmhouse where they had lived for several months.
They spent the happiest time of their lives here, and they don't know if they will ever have the chance to return.
Think of this.
Qiao Feng suddenly turned around, knelt down in front of the courtyard, and bowed three times.
Azhu was taken aback, then realized what was happening and knelt down to bow three times as well.
They were not paying homage to the courtyard itself, but to Qiao Feng's adoptive parents, his mentor Xuan Ci, and his father Xiao Yuanshan.
I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to fulfill my filial duties and pay respects to my ancestors again in this lifetime.
Let these three bows be my final act of filial piety...
Chapter 218 Shi Feixuan's Night Visit: A Transaction!
Southern Song Dynasty.
Xiangyang City.
The sun was already setting.
The two fast horses took advantage of the setting sun's glow and sped out of the city, kicking up clouds of yellow sand.
Unless there's something urgent, in this era without streetlights, no one would go out near dusk.
One of the two riders was handsome and had bright eyes; he was none other than the great hero Guo Jing.
The other person was much younger, with sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and an extraordinary and handsome appearance; he was the young Yang Guo.
The two of them rushed to Qixia Town to help after seeing the notice from Tianmen.
Although they didn't know if it would work, true men value loyalty over life and death, and Chen Yan had been kind to them, so how could they not repay him...
"Guo'er, you are still young, and you have a long road ahead of you. You don't have to go."
Sitting on his horse, Guo Jing turned to Yang Guo and said solemnly.
Yang Guo smiled wryly: "Uncle Guo, loyalty has nothing to do with age or ability, just do your best..."
Guo Jing was taken aback.
Then he burst into laughter, feeling genuinely gratified by Yang Guo's chivalry.
