"Yes." Liu Ce took out the saber from his waist and handed it to Li Luo, his hand shaking slightly.
Li Luo took the knife, picked up the horse's reins, and ran towards the two women. Liu Ce hurriedly followed behind. The woman who was digging in the soil heard the sound of horse hooves and looked up. Two horses were rushing towards them in the distance.
The woman quickly stood up and protected the woman who was staying under the tree.
Li Luo approached, jumped off his horse, and strode over with a knife in hand.
The woman asked extremely vigilantly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?" Her voice was clear and clear, like an oriole singing willow.
Without saying anything, Li Luo walked straight to the place where the woman was digging, pulled out a long knife, and helped the woman dig. Liu Ce, who followed him, let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that he was helping the woman dig her grave. He thought Li Luo was coming to silence her, so he immediately
Smiling bitterly, this Hundred-War Sword followed him through many battles in the north and south, resulting in countless bloodshed. This was the first time he had used it to repair a tomb today.
Liu Ce jumped off his horse and said, "Master, let me do it."
Li Luo didn't respond, but kept digging. Liu Ce couldn't intervene, so he had to stand up and glanced at the two women. The standing woman had bright eyes and a sweet smile on her face.
, but the pear blossoms sitting under the tree are as beautiful as the rain, and they are all in the prime of life.
Liu Ce nodded slightly, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. There was also a young woman on the ground, but her face was green and she seemed to have been strangled to death. There were still fingerprints on her neck, and her clothes were in a mess.
What's more, the woman was wearing a piece of clothing, and the wind blew gently, lifting the corners of the woman's clothes, revealing her pale body underneath.
The standing woman saw that the two people were here to help her, she smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, uncle and this young man."
Liu Ce was stunned and asked, "Why do you want to thank us?"
The woman chuckled and said, "Thank you for helping us."
Liu Ce opened his mouth, but was really speechless. He walked over, picked up the woman's body, and placed it next to the tomb. The standing woman suddenly said: "Wait, uncle, I will help her put on her clothes."
After walking to the body, his face suddenly turned red and he said: "Well, uncle, can you help me carry her behind the tree, and I will help her adjust her clothes."
Liu Ce nodded and carried the woman's body behind the tree. The woman thanked her again and ran behind the tree to tidy up her clothes.
After a while, the woman came out and said slightly embarrassed: "Uncle, can you help me take her out again?"
"Yeah." Liu Ce turned behind the tree and took the body out.
Li Luo had already dug most of it. Liu Ce wanted to help Li Luo, but Li Luo kept silent.
The woman stood by the tomb and took a look and said: "Thank you, Master. If I were the only one, I don't know how long it would take to practice." Suddenly she remembered something and whispered: "Sir, uncle, we are not bad people.
One of our sisters got sick and died, and we didn’t know where she lived, so we had to bury her first, and then move her back to her hometown when her family was found.”
"Yes, we know." Li Luo responded.
"Huh?" The woman was surprised. Seeing that Li Luo didn't mean to raise his head, she started talking to Liu Ce and asked Liu Ce where he came from and where he was going. She didn't seem to see any sadness and asked
Liu Ce just answered whatever he asked. If he couldn't answer, the woman didn't ask any questions. Soon, it was already more than two feet deep, and the woman hurriedly said: "Master, it's deep enough, it's deep enough."
Li Luo looked at it, picked up the stones inside, and jumped out. Liu Ce put the body into the tomb and covered it with a straw mat. The woman knelt beside the tomb and looked at it. There was no trace of the trace of emotion on her face anymore.
His expression was full of sadness.
After a while, the woman groaned, stood up embarrassedly, and said, "Thank you, I buried her."
"No need." Li Luo stepped forward, put the knife flat, and used his inner strength secretly. After a few strokes, most of it was buried. The woman let out a cry, and Li Luo paused and asked, "Do you want to see it again?"
"No, just bury it." the woman whispered.
After a while, they were all buried. The woman found some stones from the side and piled them together to make a mark.
He sighed and said: "It's a pity that I only know her surname is Zhang, but I don't even know her name. I can't even write it on a tombstone. After some time, unfortunately, if we both pass away, there will be no more in this world."
Others remember her."
"Her name is Zhang Qiaoer." A voice came from behind. The woman who had been sitting under the tree just now stood up holding the tree and looked at the grave.
"Xiaoying, how are you? You haven't spoken a word just now. It scared me to death." The woman hurriedly walked over, grabbed the woman named Xiaoying and asked.
Xiaoying shook her head and forced a smile: "I'm fine."
The woman looked at Xiaoying with a worried look on her face, and Li Luo murmured: "Zhang Qiao'er." Looking up, there happened to be a branch nearly a foot thick above his head. Li Luo raised his sword and rolled it up in a white movement.
, it was more dazzling than the sunlight outside the shade of the tree. The branches broke in response to the light. Liu Ce took a breath of cold air. The Hundred Battles Sword had never been so bright in his hands.
Liu Ce looked at Li Luo, and the branch fell. Li Luo knocked the branch away with a wave of his hand, cut off a three-foot-long wooden stake, and trimmed it. Before the two women could recover, Li Luo had already made a tombstone.
Only Liu Ce felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, which was complicated and difficult to understand.
It was said in Zhuocheng that Li Luo was extraordinary in martial arts. When he saw Li Luo today, Liu Ce thought to himself, where is the superiority? Looking at the martial arts world, I am afraid that not many people can have such sword skills. Even if he is poor, he will never be able to wield the sword just now.
While Liu Ce was surprised, Li Luo had already repaired the wooden tablet, carved the words "Zhang Qiao'er" on it with the tip of a knife, and inserted it in front of the tomb.
The woman pulled Xiaoying over to take a look, and said happily: "Young master's calligraphy is also very beautiful, thank you, and uncle."
Li Luo was silent and suddenly said: "Don't you ask who we are and what we do?"
The woman was stunned and said: "Ah, I won't ask you about this. If the young master is willing to talk, he will tell us naturally. If he is not willing to talk, it will not be good for us to ask."
"Aren't you afraid that we are bad people?"
The woman smiled sweetly and said, "You and uncle don't look alike. There are bad people in this world, but there are also good people. But now there are more bad people and fewer good people. However, both the young master and the uncle are good people."
Li Luo and Liu Ce looked at each other. Li Luo reached out and handed the knife back to Liu Ce and asked, "Where will you two go from now on? Is there a village near here?"
The woman hurriedly said: "Don't worry, there is an inn not far from here. We can return to the city with the passing merchants."
Li Luo looked up at the woman, nodded, and said, "Well, okay." He reached into his arms, took out all the silver coins, and handed them to the woman.
Liu Ce also took out all the money he had, put it together, and added the banknotes, there were six or seventy taels. The woman quickly waved her hands and refused, and Li Luo put it into the woman's hand and said, "You two want to settle down."
, some spare money can make things easier, so don’t refuse.”
The woman was stunned, tears suddenly flowed out, and she choked with sobs: "I thought there were no good people in this world anymore, only poor people like us. Thank you, thank you, sir. Without you, I really don't know what hope I have in life."
After saying that, she couldn't help but burst into tears. Xiaoying walked to the side and took the woman into her arms.
Li Luo stood quietly aside without saying anything. After a while, the woman stopped her tears, raised her head and said with a smile: "Master, uncle, I'm sorry."
Li Luo shook his head and said it was okay. The tears on the woman's face had not dried yet, but she wiped all the tears on Xiaoying's face first. After squeezing the silver in her hand, the woman smiled and said: "Thank you, sir, we will
I will live a good life and live up to the kindness of you and uncle."
Li Luo smiled slightly and said: "Okay, if you live well, I and we will have hope to survive."
The woman was stunned and said: "Sir, you look so beautiful when you smile."
Liu Ce looked at the sky and said, "Sir."
Li Luo nodded, looked at the two women, thought for a while, said take care, and flew on his horse. The woman hurriedly shouted: "Master, what is your name? How can I pay you back in the future?"
Li Luo galloped away without looking back, and a voice came from far away: "No need."
The woman was stunned and looked back, but Xiaoying looked at Li Luo's retreating back infatuatedly and murmured to herself: "That is General Liu, then this young master is the general. General, what are you doing?"
You wouldn't have come to save us sooner." Two lines of tears fell down his face.
Li Luo and Liu Ce were speechless all the way back to the camp gate. The army was already preparing to leave. Ni Qing was waiting at the camp gate. When he saw Li Luo, he hurriedly came over and said, "General, you haven't had lunch, where have you been?"
?”
Li Luo reined in his horse, turned his head and stared at Liu Ce, his face full of anger. Liu Ce was slumped and sighed. Li Luo was about to speak, but suddenly he suppressed it again. His anger dissipated, and his face was filled with silence, and he slowly said: "
It is my fault."
Liu Ce didn't know what to say. Ni Qing looked at the two of them with a confused face, followed Li Luo into the camp, ran to Li Luo and asked: "General, what do you want to eat? I still have some left.
