Su Lie walked all the way, afraid that Huang Zhao would not be able to control it and lose face on the way, but he didn't think that his words still inspired him.

Hey, cry, cry, Huang Zhao's heart is bitter, I'm afraid that he has been holding back for many years, and he can't drink him on the street again for the sake of face. And his words of self-reproach are all facts, and they come from the sincerity of him, the supreme commander of the guards, even if the whole world listens to it, there is no need to feel ashamed.

Su Lie stood upright, put his big hand on Huang Zhao's shoulder, and kept patting it, like coaxing the youngest student in the school, the five-year-old Xiaoxiao. It is comforting that no one on the road laughed out loud at this time, and their expressions changed to sympathy.

The story of the Great Wall Guards, even if the young people have not experienced it personally, have heard a lot from the older generation, and the storytellers of the teahouse often spit on wonderful speeches, and the key points can always get a full house. Now that the characters in that legendary army are standing alive in front of them, how can they not be moved?

"Are you really, the Great Wall Guards?" The clear children's voice sounded, Huang Zhaowu cried to himself, and Su Lie hurriedly looked down.

A dusty child raised his little head with curiosity and asked.

Su Lie didn't answer, only nodded heavily.

The child laughed innocently, jumping and cheering: "Oh oh ~ I have grown up, I want to join too!" Standing on top of the Great Wall...... he struck a sword-dancing pose.

Su Lie also imagined that Huang Zhao cried loudly, he began to envy the adjutant for his open-mindedness in letting go of everything, but why couldn't he do it?

"No, you're wrong...... "He wanted to tell the child, to all the people watching them on the street. He was disappointed, why he was still alive, unable to protect the things he cherished and longed for since he was a teenager, but he still lived so cheekily. He Su Lie, he doesn't deserve this name!

"Child, don't be sad, stop crying with your head down. Tears will only blindfold your eyes and make you unable to see the distance. Keeping your head down can hinder your thinking and make you think that the world is just a piece of land, not a blue sky. ”

This time, it was an incomparably old voice. The child's childish laughter disappeared, but he didn't run far, but hid behind the old man, who should have been his grandfather or grandfather.

Su Lie looked at it again, and the speaker was a dry and thin little old man, dressed in a short cyan soap suit, and carrying a bottle of osmanthus wine in his hand, it seemed that he had brought his little grandson to the camel wine shop to sell wine.

Hearing the old man's philosophical words, Huang Zhao suddenly stopped crying, looked up in amazement, and looked at him with red eyes.

"Mr. Su, our neighbors all know your origins, you are a big man in the guards, and a cannon barrel can smash the head of the Great Wall, and a single shot can scare a large group of enemies to death. As for this one, you don't need to look at this shirt, you can also know that you are a general just by your temperament, and the little old man can imagine how sad it is that after the guards were disbanded by the imperial court, your hero was useless. That's it, the little old man is a cloth cloth, I can't help anything, when the enemy attacks, I have to count on you to help me save the lives of my children and grandchildren, it's really unrespectable, this altar of worthless wine, just give it to the general, the right to express a little respect, I hope you can drink this wine, you can abandon the past, and revive the former majesty! ”

The old man's condolences played a leading role in Shen Xiang, what he said led everyone's sorrow and resonated among them, so whether it was a stall on the street or a passerby, they all gathered around, some stuffed cabbage eggs into Huang Zhao's arms, some stuffed apples and bananas, and even directly stuffed silver taels.

Huang Zhao was stunned by the sudden enthusiasm of the people, and he didn't dare to move, so he only looked at Su Lie stupidly and asked him for help.

Su Lie has lived in Chang'an for so many years, and some people come to visit after knowing his past experience, and when he comes with a generous gift, he naturally never accepts it, let alone a generous gift, even if it is a stitch and a thread, although people are stuffing it into Huang Zhao's arms, he can't see Huang Zhao's collection, so he stopped everyone: "Neighbors, your condolences to me and the two of you understand it, I am really grateful!" However, take these things back, although the Great Wall Guards are temporarily disbanded, the soul of the army will always remain, so military discipline still exists, I hope you don't embarrass us, make us bear the responsibility for violating military discipline! ”

"This ......"

The old man's wine bottle that mentioned osmanthus wine couldn't fit into Huang Zhao's hand, and he was in a hurry, and when he heard Su Lie's words, his movements stopped.

Violation of military discipline is a major matter, and General Su is justified. And he seems to have something in his words, saying that the Great Wall Guards who have become people's memories will return to the Great Wall one day?

"Everyone, everyone listen to what the little old man says!" The old man waved his withered arm and called, and the chaotic crowd immediately fell silent.

"Since Mr. Su, no, it was General Su who said that these small gifts can't be accepted, let's not force it, otherwise it will not be a condolence, but a difficult thing for the two generals!"

"Ah, that's it, then these things really can't be delivered!"

The neighbors were quite reasonable, and they gave the old man a little clarity, and each of them retreated, surrounding Su Lie and Huang Zhao in a circle.

The old man was hunched over, only as tall as Su Lie's arm, and he trembled and tried to straighten his waist and asked, "Listening to what the general said just now, it seems that the Great Wall guards can come back and continue to keep our Chang'an City safe?" When will that be? At that time, our entire Chang'an City, from the East City to the West Market, I am afraid that we will kill chickens and cattle and celebrate well! ”

"That's right!"

"Not really!"

"When?"

……

Dozens of pairs of eager eyes fell on Su Lie, but they pierced his heart like steel needles. He cried out in his heart: "I want to know when!" ”

But can he answer like that?

"Old man, I can't tell you the time, everything depends on the arrangement of the imperial court. The only thing I can promise you, to you, is that this will not be too long, and I will do everything I can to urge the Holy Lords today to rebuild their armies and reopen the outer gates! ”

"Ah, that's good, that's good!"

The old man was so excited that he burst into tears. Although his generation did not face the war directly, he had personally experienced the tense atmosphere in the whole city when Cheduguo attacked, and later thought about what a terrible and devastating disaster it would be if the enemy really broke through the city gates and broke in, burned and looted everywhere...... In a peaceful and prosperous world, the court officials could not do it, but the rotten body of the common people was worried all the time.

Huang Zhao's mood calmed down, and there was no resentment and hatred in his heart, and he was full of emotion at this time. How he regretted the drunken nonsense, and almost wanted to apologize for his sins with death.

When the crowd dispersed, Su Lie said to him in a deep voice: "We all have a sullen breath in our chests, but the target of venting is not these lovely people, but the enemy. ”
