Chapter 428: Promise

The wind on the yellow earth seems to be so dry, which makes people feel a little bored. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The wind stirred the cloth covering the tent, the trees and grass, the clothes of the black-robed old man, and the white hair that appeared next to his hood.

The black-robed old man lowered his head and looked at his hands.

The palms are broad, the fingers are slender, the joints are prominent, and there are calluses of large and small sizes.

This is the hand that used to hold the brush, which was supposed to be delicate, fair-skinned, and the hand whose joints were hidden but not exposed, because of the needs of the family, and later became like this, although it is not ugly, but it is definitely not a beautiful hand.

Regrets?

Maybe.

Do you regret it?

No.

Because this hand has also carried the strongest and purest wine bowl, pulled the most fragrant and tender cattle and sheep, pinched the most beautiful and soft woman, and held the hardest and sharpest sword.

But these things that seem to be glorious, and they all seem to have lost their meaning in the face of time.

The old man in the black robe suddenly remembered an eagle that he had survived when he was a child, which was still taught by Hu Ren at that time, and remembered that he was still young, boiling up the same young eagle, an eagle alone, all crumbling, gritting their teeth and struggling to support ......

Did you win in the end?

I can't remember, I think I won......

But now I suddenly feel that I am the eagle, and that hateful time has been boiling myself, boiling myself from a naΓ―ve child to a heroic young man, and then boiling it into such an old face as it is now.

He once thought that he would be a famous general, but he didn't expect that he had not yet become a famous general, but he was already white-headed.

The black-robed old man took a deep breath, straightened his waist, raised his head high, and strode along the road between the tents to the front of the central tent......

The two Huren guards standing at the door stretched out their hands to intercept them, but they were glared at by the black-robed old man and shouted angrily: "Get out!" The old man's guards in the black robe stepped forward to pull the two guards away, but the Hu guards naturally refused, and they just refused to let them stand in front of the big tent, and the two sides couldn't writhe way.

Suddenly, a few nonsense came from inside the tent, and the guards outside the tent gave way to the side......

The black-robed old man lifted the curtain of the big tent, and when he saw that Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan were both in the big tent, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and he didn't wait for Fuluo to greet him, and went straight to the side of the mat and sat down.

Yu Fuluo glanced at Hu Chuquan.

Hu Chuquan understood, smiled, beckoned the guards and served a plate of mutton to the black-robed old man, then poured a bowl of mare's milk wine, and said, "Ah, what made our distinguished guests so angry?" ”

The black-robed old man's eyes were like goshawks in the sky, staring at Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan sharply and viciously, so that Hu Chuquan's hand pouring wine paused slightly, and a few drops of hops splashed outside the bowl.

"Why?"

The black-robed old man said word by word.

Yu Fuluo blinked, shook his neck, turned to Hu Chuquan, and said with a smile: "What seed?" King Youxian, what seed have you taken from your guest? ”

"No? What seeds? What does it look like? "Hu Chuquan cooperated and dressed stupidly.

The black-robed old man snorted, his voice like rocks on the top of the mountain hitting each other, and said, "I never laugh. ”

"Very well, plough on top," said Yu Fuluo, as briskly as a mountain breeze, "and our sons of China have never liked to joke with anyone. ”

The black-robed old man stared at Yu Fuluo tightly, and his tone was as cold as the ice left in the stone crevices on the top of the mountain: "In the White Wave Valley, if you are not indulgent, how can you escape?" ”

Yu Fuluo cut the mutton's hand for a moment, and then continued to cut it, filling a piece of mutton into his mouth, obviously it tasted good, and motioned to the old man in the black robe to eat it.

The black-robed old man stared at Yu Fuluo and refused to eat.

Yu Fuluo didn't care, with mutton in his mouth, puffing out his cheeks, and invited again, making it clear that if you don't eat it, I won't speak.

The black-robed old man was in a stalemate for a long time, and finally picked up the knife on the table, grabbed the lamb chops, cut a piece, and put it in his mouth.

In the past, the lamb chops were roasted by tender lambs, but this time the lamb chops are old lambs, and the heat is a little excessive, the meat is dry and hard, although the bite is full of mutton fragrance, but the texture of the meat is like a piece of wood silk, drilled between the teeth.

The old man in the black robe did not stop, nor did he pause because the old man stuffed his teeth, chewed a few bites and swallowed it, and then filled his mouth with another knife until the whole roasted lamb chops were eaten cleanly......

"Bell".

The black-robed old man threw the sheep bones and knife into the plate, and then stared silently, waiting for Fuluo's answer.

"Your Excellency has a good appetite," said Yu Fuluo with a smile, "but our son of China has never had a great appetite, and besides...... We have also done what our customers have asked for......"

"You are intent on indulgence, and a hundred horsemen will flee calmly!"

"Ah, that's what you said......" Yu Fuluo smiled and said, "Look, you visit, we won this battle, right?" This person also helped the distinguished guest run away, right? Flee and flee, is it that heavy? ”

"You didn't do what you promised!" The black-robed old man pointed his finger at Fuluo and shouted angrily.

"Hey, hey, hey, hehe, hey!"

Yu Fuluo gently placed the knife on the table, gentle as if soothing the skin of a beauty, "At the beginning of the edict of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, I took seven thousand people to the expedition, and agreed that we would help quell the rebellion, and the Han people would provide grain and grass, and then what?" ”

"Two thousand of our people died in battle, and then there was no one to provide food and grass......"

"Last spring, someone said that it was agreed that we would put down the rebellion against Bai Bo, and then it would help us convey the wish to return home to the Emperor of Han, and then what?"

"Eight hundred of our people died in battle, and then the so-called communication is gone......"

"In the spring of this year, someone said that it was agreed that we would pretend to be Bai Bo, and then they would help us go back to the royal court, and then what?"

"Five hundred of our people died in battle, and then we are ...... now Where is it? ”

"I would like to ask you, which one are you talking about?"

Yu Fuluo didn't shout, but the tone of his voice was calm, and he felt the anger contained in it, like the magma tumbling beneath the earth's crust.

The black-robed old man was silent, and after a long time, he changed his tone and said: "Shan Yu, it's not that we didn't abide by the agreement, but that the imperial court suddenly sent a new county guard at that time, and many things couldn't be done for a while......"

"But it's different now, the imperial court now has the affairs of the imperial court, and it can't control the upper county for the time being, and the east of the river, as long as the county guard here dies, then this entire area will be the same as before, and it belongs to Shan Yu and our grassland......"

"When the time comes, are you still worried that we won't follow the rules? Does Shan Yu still need to worry about such a large piece of land, and there is no strength and grain and grass to support Shan Yu to go north to the royal court? ”

"Don't you believe I've waited?"

Yu Fuluo said with a smile: "Naturally, I believe it, otherwise the descendants of China would not be here, right?" Do you want to have another piece? ”

The black-robed old man thanked him politely, and then took his leave.

Hu Chuquan silently waited for a long time before he said in nonsense: "I still don't believe him......"

"Oh? Why? Yu Fuluo also asked in Hu language.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Because when he eats lamb chops, he is like a bearded bone, obviously very old meat, very stuffed meat, but he still pretends that he is very young, and has a good tooth mouth, and he can eat it in a big gulp......"
