Li Kuo exclaimed for a moment and took a step to meet him.
"Third Brother!" Li Kuo's mouth twitched slightly, his body leaned forward, and said tremblingly. Happiness came too suddenly. The boy was really afraid that it was just a dream, and he kept staring wide, for fear that the person in front of him would follow the wind.
And die.
In Li Kuo's opinion, the young man was Li Zigu. He shook his head, stepped forward and hugged Li Kuo directly: "Seventh boy, I haven't seen him for so long, I've grown so tall. I remember you just now
When I was in the army, I kept pestering me to teach you the art of shooting. Now you can easily pull out the two-stone hard bow, right?"
"Third brother, I have been in the army for so many years, and I think of you the most! How is my mother's health, but it's okay? Sister-in-law, Xiao Liu said that she just gave birth to a big fat boy for you, and she looked so beautiful
Are you handsome or not?”
After asking so many questions in a row, Li Zigu did not answer at all.
"Third Brother?" Li Kuo's voice trembled and he frowned subconsciously. The person in front of him was clearly the third brother. That voice, in addition to the third brother, there were also other people who matched it? But he felt that it was.
Something was wrong, but I couldn't say it at all.
Li Kuo carefully looked at the third brother's body, from his bun to his toes, from his left palm to his right arm. He checked Li Zigu's whole body, but he just couldn't tell what the problem was.
Suddenly, the boy's eyes moved to Li Zigu's cheeks, and his face was pale. It turned out that Li Zigu's cheeks were blurred and chaotic, not only did he have no mouth, nose, eyes, but also his basic bone contours could not be seen clearly.
"Third brother, you, what are you?"
The boy subconsciously took a step back, and his instinct drove him to escape from danger, and the person in front of him was obviously the danger.
"You are not the third brother! Who are you!"
Li Kuo's right hand had already clenched the horizontal knife around his waist. As long as the opponent had a slight change, he could draw the knife out to defend himself.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is why you think of me." The man gently waved his head and sighed: "If I expected it to be good, there are aunts, Du Jingtian and others in front of you.
An extremely important person.”
After being told through everything that the person who was suspected of being a third brother, Li Kuo felt his cheeks turn red and argued: "What's the matter with you? Since you are not my third brother, why did you suddenly appear in front of me again?"
He tried his best to spit out his voice crisply, making him confident. But every time he finished a sentence, the last word would be put on a final note, revealing his guilt.
"Because you are afraid to face it, and you are afraid to take responsibility!" The man's voice suddenly became ruthless and he stepped towards Li Kuo: "You were defeated in the Battle of Talas. Although you did not have direct responsibility, you were always guilty.
It is your lack that led to the failure of Tang Jun. It is the biggest mistake you think that Gao Xianzhi did not take you to the front battlefield."
"No, it's not like that. I never complained about Gao Shuai from beginning to end. He is the head coach and of course he has the right to arrange troops. As for me, I have only ten thousand people under my command. If I dig out the brothers who Shuoye Shoucheng, the remaining one is only five thousand.
Let me stand up. I have no guilt, no!"
For some reason, the man seemed to be able to see through his own thoughts and dig out all the secrets buried deep in his heart, and it ended up under the moonlight. Who is he? If he is not the third brother, then who is he and why he would
Do you know yourself so clearly?
"You feel guilty, so you think about making as much compensation as possible. But you didn't expect that Gao Xianzhi was so unsophisticated and was addicted to women and left behind the scenes of gathering the defeated troops and reorganizing the army. You have nowhere to do anything about your strength
Only when you perform, you will be so angry and think of us.”
"Ah!" Li Kuo felt that he had been stripped of the other party and was watched in public by people. The boy couldn't help but exclaim, shrank his neck and looked around, but he did not find anyone nearby.
"You first think of A Tian, then you think of aunt, and then you think of me. If you can't get out of your guilt, then you will think of Captain Sun, Secretary Gao and other people who have taken care of you.
.You are afraid, afraid of taking on your own responsibilities alone. Only cowards, only cowards, will hope to seek protection from others. To put it bluntly, you are still a child, a child who never grows up!”
The other party's voice was very cold, without any emotion. The boy was poured with a basin of cold water on his head, and he felt his whole body tremble.
"You're talking nonsense, I'm not a coward. I led my brothers to conquer Thunderbolt City and calm down the civil strife. After receiving the request for help from Gao Shuai, I rushed to Talas City without stopping. Brothers can do this.
Testify. This is not my fault. When I arrived, the battle was over."
Li Kuo's voice became weaker and weaker, and in the end it was already fainter. But the man didn't want to let Li Kuo go, and another spark of sparks was raised on a pile of dry firewood.
"Oh? It doesn't matter if you say so? Then why do you think of me and your relatives?"
"It doesn't matter who said it. I am a soldier of the Tang Dynasty. My blood debt only needs blood to be paid! One day I will make the great cannibal pay the price!"
Li Kuo clenched his fists and waved his strength.
"That's it." The man sighed and said, "It doesn't matter whether I am your third brother or not. It doesn't matter whether you can help you. What matters is how you think about this matter and whether you have the courage to face it head-on!"
After a slight pause, the man suddenly laughed and said, "Boy Seven, do you remember climbing a locust tree in the old house in Chongrenfang when you were eight years old? It's funny to say that you just took it off for the Seventeenth Sister to show off.
The kite with falling branches risked its life to climb up the locust tree that was several people tall. In the end, you took the kite but fell down accidentally and fainted for two days and two nights. Later, my uncle endured the pain in his heart and used the clan rules.
I have punished you so much that you can't get out of bed for more than ten days."
Li Kuo was even more confused. Could this person be really the third brother? Why did he know such a secret thing?
"Do you know what question I asked you at that time?" A wrinkle suddenly flashed on the man's vague and chaotic cheeks, as if he was waiting for the boy to answer.
“Yes, what is it?”
"Why did we fall?"
The man spread his hands and said slowly.
"How did you answer at that time?"
"Because you have to, learn to stand up?" Li Kuo's voice was already trembling slightly, and the vague memories of childhood emerged into his mind again, constantly slapping the embankment of the sea of memory.
"Boy Seven, you are not a coward from beginning to end. I did not read you wrong." The man nodded and said slowly.
"San brother, it's really you, is it really you? Don't leave, don't leave!"
At this point, Li Kuo was completely sure that the person in front of him was Li Zigu. He never wanted his third brother to stay by his side as he is now. The third brother was in the army early, experienced and scheming, and with him being around to give advice, he himself
It became much more stable.
"Since you've found the answer, I don't need to show up here again."
Li Zigu shook his head and turned around without hesitation.
ps: Let me talk about why I wrote this passage, but I really put myself in my shoes. With Qiluo's personality, I can't turn it around, so I can only rely on the comfort of my relatives! Hehe, it may be a bit mysterious, but it's just for the plot.
