Chapter 120: Even if he gave up his life.

The guards approached step by step, and at the moment when the fire light shone, Liu Miaomiao quickly released a fog formation, and the mist spread rapidly, covering the entire city wall in a short time. Within the fog formation, both the guards and the people fell into a coma. unconscious.

The crossbowmen standing on the city wall fell down one after another. At this time, Shen Tuwei couldn't hold back, and without hesitation wanted to rush over to save his relatives hanging on the top, but before he could get out, he was caught by Yun Wan. Pulled back.

"Don't be rash, you don't want to die?"

The mist array contains the grass, which is unbearable for his mortal body.

Shen Tuwei pursed his lips and remained silent, obviously not giving up his thoughts.

Yun Wan stared into the distance.

There was a lot of movement here, and it was estimated that there would be support immediately. She squeezed Shen Tuwei's shoulders tightly, choked him to prevent him from taking any action, and said with a final word: "You wait here, we will go."

Yun Wan didn't give him a chance to refuse at all. After saying this, he immediately killed him single-handedly.

One word, that is reckless!

Shen Tuwei suddenly came back to his senses, "Yun..." Before Wan could utter the word, he was startled by Yun Wan's next move.

The mist slowly dissipated.

Yun Wan was as light as a swallow, jumped to the highest point, easily tore off the rough hemp rope tied around the corpse, carried one on the left and one on the right, and in the blink of an eye, she reappeared in front of several people. The action is so fast that people smack their tongues.

Yun Wan put the rescued two people on the ground without blushing or panting, turned her head and told Chu Lin, "I will leave these people to you, and we will take Shen Tuwei back first."

The effect of the medicine does not last long, and if they are caught, they will die.

It was rare that Chu Lin didn't argue with her, and went to deal with the aftermath with a donkey face drooping.

"Shen Tuwei, we are leaving."

Yun Wan looked at him, but found that he remained motionless as if he had been cast with a holding spell.

Yun Wan couldn't help taking a few steps closer, and lightly patted him on the back: "Shen Tuwei?"

She followed his gaze.

The two had been dead for a long time, and after so long exposure to wind and sun, the surface of the corpses had already become dilapidated, but the kindness of life could be seen from the eyebrows and eyes.

He was obviously stranger to them, but his heart was inexplicably stabbed.

She couldn't help but looked in the direction of Xie Tingyun. The man's face was covered by a mask, so he couldn't see his expression clearly, nor could he guess what was going on in his heart.

Shen Tuwei hadn't had the time to find out where her strength came from, so he approached with stiff legs uncontrollably, lowered his neck, and looked at the two corpses lying side by side on the ground without blinking.

It's them…

He is the most respected father and husband in his life.

Shen Tuwei's knees were weak, as if the entire dark sky was pressing on his shoulders, he couldn't stand still, and finally staggered and fell to the ground.

His cold fingertips caressed the hideous scars on his father's face.

It hurts, it must hurt.

Shen Tuwei didn't dare to think about what kind of mood they closed their eyes, and couldn't bear to think about it, even if it was just a single thought, it would make him so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.

Finally, Shen Tuwei stretched out his hand to smooth his father's messy sideburns and the mud stains on his beard, and said from his chest: "I will take you home right away, my son."

Leaving Buji City and returning to my hometown, where...there is where I belong.

The crowd didn't say anything, they watched him silently as he put Old General Shentu and Mr. Wei on the horses, mounted the spirit horses and followed behind.

There was silence all the way, and the lights of Yangqing Town were lit in the distance.

The fire swayed slowly in the dark night, and when the figures of several people emerged, the crowd shouted joyfully: "The general is back safely—!"

Everyone gathered around, but when they saw the old General Shentu and Mr. Wei who were no longer resting on their horses, the originally relaxed atmosphere seemed to suddenly fall into dead silence.

Shen Tuwei got off his horse and lowered his head to avoid the eyes of everyone.

The head of the mayor's eyes were red, and leaning on a cane, he approached tremblingly, holding back his tears and asked, "Would you like... to make arrangements for Lord Shentu and the others?"

Shen Tuwei shook his head, "Don't bother, lest you leak the news and bring trouble for you."

"That…"

"Let everyone go back and rest, I will take care of it myself."

He remained calm, and the old mayor sighed deeply.

The current situation is unstable, Shen Tuwei can't protect himself, and those who stay here are unarmed ordinary people. The only thing they can do now is to be obedient and not cause trouble for Shen Tuwei, even if they want to give old General Shentu and Mr. Wei It's not a good time to hold a funeral.

The old mayor dismissed all the townspeople, leaving only Sang Qi, Yun Wan and others in the end.

"Let's go." Xie Tingyun whispered these three words into her ear.

She glanced at Shen Tuwei worriedly, pursed her lips, and turned to leave while holding Xie Tingyun's hand.

Shen Tuwei came to the back mountain alone.

In the depths of the back mountain, there used to be a stream leading down from the top. In summer, the stream is gurgling and the scenery is very beautiful. Since the drought, the stream has slowly dried up, leaving only a few boulders towering over the sky.

Father loves vastness, so Shen Tuwei deliberately chose a place with a wide view, gripped the flat shovel and began to dig a hole.

Seeing this, Sang Qi dug along, regardless of his unhealed injury.

Apart from the occasional whistling of the wind, there was only the sound of digging the earth.

From the perspective of family custom, Shen Tuwei wanted to bury them in the ancestral grave, but judging from the current situation, burying them here can actually lead to a clean life, so as not to be trampled on by others, disturbing their lives after death.

He shoveled the black soil out one after another, and the sweat quickly soaked the skirt of his clothes. Beads of sweat slid down his forehead into the soil. Can no longer hold a shovel.

"General..." Sang Qi came to the edge of the pit and called him cautiously, "Take a break, I'll come."

Shen Tuwei's Adam's apple rolled, he gritted his teeth and stood up.

After burying the two elders, he placed a few more stones as steles, which were extremely simple and in stark contrast to their achievements in life.

"Sang Qi." Shen Tuwei knelt in front of the tomb, "Let me be alone for a while."

His face was pale, and even his eyelashes were covered with gray. Sang Qi was worried, but he didn't dare to go beyond the rules. He nodded and retreated calmly.

The night sky hangs high overhead, and the two tombs in front of me look somewhat bleak.

"Bones are built in rivers and mountains, lonely souls are buried in barren rivers; emperors and generals meet Zhu Men, and thousands of families are lit by lights..."

He smiled lonely.

They were beloved fathers and husbands, generals of the country, and commanders-in-chief of the army, but they were given the crime of indiscriminate crimes, suffered all kinds of humiliation, and lay scarred all over the land they defended day and night.

how sad.

How ridiculous.

He fell heavily into the narrow pit, curled up into a ball, crying sadly and depressingly.

Shen Tuwei swallowed back the fishy smell in his throat, and when he got up again, his expression was a little more tenacious.

"Sang Qi..."

In the night, Shen Tuwei's voice was unbearably hoarse.

Sang Qi was startled for a moment, and ran to him in a staggering manner: "This subordinate is here."

"Can you still walk?"

Sang Qi was startled by the coldness in his expression for a moment, his lowered hands clenched into fists, and his answer was even more forceful: "This subordinate can!"

Shen Tuwei ordered to him: "I want you to set off immediately and go to Linyan to summon the self-defense army."

"Master... Lord General." Sang Qi's lips and teeth were cold, he couldn't stop fighting, hot tears fell down, "You, you really want to plot rebellion?"

rebellion?

yes.

He wants to make a living for the living and fight against the imperial power for the dead, even if he does everything he can.

Shen Tuwei's eyes were scarlet, and he said every word: "If this city can't protect my home, I will build the city myself; if the emperor can't protect my soldiers, I will call myself emperor. If the world hates me, then hate me, I will always Kill a **** path for the people behind you."

Sang Qi clasped his fingers tightly, "But... but the military power is in the hands of the Tan family, even if we gather our own army, we will..."

Tan Jiuxiang had at least 100,000 troops, not counting the rest of the army, and the emperor was protected by Haosheng in the main city, not to mention the lack of manpower, even if he had manpower, it would be difficult to capture the city of Buji.

Shen Tuwei's expression was cold and silent, the moonlight gathered in his eyes, but there was no warmth at all, "I have a solution."

Looking around, it is full of absurdity.

That being the case, it is better to give it a go.

Even if...

Even if he gave up his life.
