This time, Zhuge Liang gambled with his life and considered many aspects, just to kill Chen Xu here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"You're looking for death!"

Dian Wei was furious, and he was about to step forward and kill Zhuge Liang to vent his hatred.

Chen Xu hurriedly grabbed Dian Wei, coughed violently a few times, and watched more and more soldiers unable to support it and fell to the ground due to the thick smoke, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

But for some reason, even if he was calculated by Zhuge Liang to this extent, Chen Xu still couldn't have a trace of hatred in his heart.

Maybe Chen Xu has been fighting in Changsha for many years and is used to seeing life and death, or maybe he has a trace of guilt in his heart for Huang Yueying, who has never been masked.

He turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang and said, "Well, if I deserve to be here, the past grudges will disappear." ”

"To be able to go to Huangquan with Kong Ming, to be able to make a name for himself in this troubled era, this life is enough."

When he said this, Chen Xu couldn't help laughing at himself, there was freedom in his smile, helplessness, and regret.

When Zhuge Liang saw this, he was silent.

Zhuge Liang can predict that if Chen Xu is really burned here, there will be chaos in Guanzhong, and the princes who have been suppressed will definitely become ready to move again.

At that time, the chaotic times, which had already seen the hope of reunification, would eventually become full of smoke again, and the people who had been affected by the war and died did not know how many more people would die.

"I'm sorry."

Zhuge Liang sighed slightly in his heart, and then muttered softly, when death is imminent, any grudge can also be dissipated with the wind.

Chen Xu smiled freely when he heard this, and said: "In the troubled times, each is his master, although in the process of conquering the world, I also used a lot of subordinate means. ”

"But for the sake of victory, for the sake of the people with fewer casualties, Lone has never regretted it."

Zhuge Liang stared at Chen Xu and asked, "King Qin's conquest of the world is really for the people of the Han Dynasty, not for personal ambitions?" ”

Chen Xu was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said: "At first, Lone was just a peasant in the countryside, only seeking to survive in the troubled times, not to be heard by the princes. ”

"It's just that in this environment, Lone was forced to be helpless, and he embarked on the road of conquering the world step by step."

"I have killed countless people in my life, but I just want to live, I want those soldiers who follow me to survive, I want my family to live in peace, and I want the people in the territory to live a better life."

Speaking of this, Chen Xu paused for a while, and then said: "I don't deny it, as the power in my hands grows, my ambitions are also expanding. ”

"However, I can assure you that I am so eager to pacify the world, not to satisfy my own ambitions, but to end the war in my lifetime, so as to preserve a little more vitality for the Great Han."

Zhuge Liang was stunned on the spot, and after a long time, he said astringently: "Do you dare to swear to the sky that you will never usurp the imperial power in your lifetime?" ”

Zhuge Liang said this, not that he is really stupid and loyal to the Han family, but to test whether Chen Xu is really for the sake of the people of the world.

When Chen Xu heard this, he fell silent.

Holding the authority of the world and being on the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Chen Xu does have this thought, which is also the wish that many men and careerists dare not say.

But thinking of himself, now that he can't even save his life, what can he do even if he is ambitious?

And compared with the rest of the careerists, Chen Xu came from later generations, and he didn't covet the imperial power too much, so many years of fighting in Changsha, Chen Xu also felt a little tired.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

The fire was still burning, mixed with dust and smoke, enveloping the entire valley.

I felt a little suffocated in my chest, but the soldiers outside the valley still failed to clear the obstacles, and Chen Xu knew that if no miracle happened, he would probably die here.

Shaking his head, Chen Xu smiled freely, then raised his left hand and said, "I can swear to heaven that I will never usurp the imperial power in my lifetime!" ”

"Ahem, ahem!"

Zhuge Liang coughed violently, tears couldn't help but flow, his face turned red, and his body was a little shaky.

At this time, no one knew what was going on in his mind.

"Ahem, cough, Kong Ming, are you okay?"

Chen Xu stepped forward to support Zhuge Liang, and asked with some concern, even if the two sides were in the opposite position, even if they fell to this point, it was because of Zhuge Liang's design.

But in Chen Xu's heart, he didn't hate Zhuge Liang at all.

Maybe both sides are going to die, and in the face of such a big thing as death, any hatred will eventually disappear.

"Ahem, ahem."

There was more and more smoke, Chen Xu's eyes couldn't open a little, and the tears couldn't be held back at all, and they flowed down.

At this time, Chen Xu suddenly thought of a lot.

He thought of the three wives in the family, thought of his children, and remembered the foundation of Guanzhong, and he didn't know where to go.

Chen Xu turned his head, looked at Dian Wei, who had been loyally guarding beside him, and said with some guilt: "Originally, I thought that after this war ended, let my brother An enjoy his old age. ”

Dian Wei has reached the age of sixties, which can be regarded as a long life in this era, and his body has already begun to decline.

"I never thought that this time I would even cause my brother and me to die here."

Speaking of this, Chen Xu seemed a little emotional, and his tears became more and more unstoppable, I don't know if it was because of fear, guilt, or because he couldn't bear the smoke.

Dian Wei has always wanted to take Chen Xu out of the valley, but he has tried many times but has not been able to do so, and now he is a little dead.

Dian Wei shook his head and said: "If it weren't for the heavy weapon of the lord, a certain outlaw who was wanted by the government might have died in the mountains long ago, and his body was taken away by fierce beasts." ”

"After following the lord, I realized that this life was not in vain, even if I died here, I have no regrets in my heart."

"It's just that I'm the commander of the lord's own army, but I can't protect the lord's safety, but I am derelict in my duty, and I am ashamed of the lord and the world."

Speaking of this, Dian Wei felt guilty and cried.

Suddenly, Chen Xu remembered that in history, Sima Yi was introduced into the valley by Zhuge Liang, and he almost died by setting fire to the valley, but suddenly it rained heavily.

He immediately comforted Dian Wei and said, "Maybe I am the one who is destined for heaven, and suddenly there will be a heavy rain in the sky, so that we can live." ”

Although Chen Xu spoke like this, even he felt a little unreliable.

It's just that when Dian Wei heard this, his eyes lit up.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem."

Zhuge Liang coughed a few times, and said weakly: "There has been a drought here for more than half a month, and today is the sun is shining, and it will not rain anyway." ”

"Boom!"

However, just as Zhuge Liang's words fell, a bolt of lightning pierced the thick smoke in the valley, and thunder rolled down, and the thunder kept echoing in the valley.

"Whoa!"

As soon as the thunder fell, the downpour suddenly whistled down, and the fire in the valley was extinguished in an instant.

The smoke that had filled the air also disappeared in an instant under the heavy rain.

This sudden change made everyone stunned, and Sergeant Guan, who was not in a coma in the valley, couldn't help but cheer loudly.

Their cheers were so loud that they even had to drown out the thunder.

After Chen Xu was stunned, he suddenly felt the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe fill his chest, and he couldn't help but open his arms to embrace the sky, and laughed regardless of his image.

"Heaven will not kill me, God bless Great Qin!"

When the rest of the soldiers heard Chen Xu's shout, they were also shocked, and then looked at Chen Xu very enthusiastically and shouted in unison.

"God bless the lord, God bless the Great Qin!"

"God bless the lord, God bless the Great Qin!"

"God bless the lord, God bless the Great Qin!"

The entire valley reverberated with exciting shouts, even those who were outside the valley heard the voice.

Before that, Sergeant Guan, who stayed outside the valley, saw that the valley was blocked by boulders and the smoke was billowing in the valley, so he knew that something was wrong.

The few Guanzhong generals who stayed behind all became anxious.

The generals sent soldiers to carry the valley mouth stones, but they never thought that the huge rocks on the mountain kept rolling down, and the stones were very huge, and the soldiers moved for a long time, but they did not finish cleaning all the stones.

The generals knew that if the Jingzhou ambush on the cliff was not cleared, it would be impossible to empty the boulders at the mouth of the valley.

Therefore, the Guanzhong generals outside divided half of their troops and began to climb the cliff, preparing to wipe out the Jingzhou army on the cliff first, and the other half of the soldiers were still tirelessly carrying stones.

However, the cliff was too steep, hundreds of sergeants climbed the cliff, and most of them had been killed by Jingzhou soldiers with arrows before they could climb up.

Seeing that there was more and more smoke in the valley, but the gravel at the mouth of the valley had not been completely removed, the general of Guanzhong couldn't help but become anxious.

He had no doubt that if he continued like this, his lord would definitely die in the valley.

As for himself, there will be no good fruit to eat.

Just when the general of Guanzhong outside the valley was as anxious as ants in a hot pot, the pouring rain immediately fell from the sky.

It didn't take long for the earth-shattering cheers to be heard in the valley, and everyone outside the valley was shaken.

"The lord is the son of destiny, and he has the protection of God!"

The general of the Guanzhong outside the valley roared loudly, and the soldiers once again boosted their morale, braving the heavy rain and began to carry the Gukou mountain stones.

At this time, Gao Shun led the soldiers of the trapped camp to this place.

But said that Zhuge Liang just said that it was impossible to rain, and in the blink of an eye, the heavy rain poured down, and the heavy rain not only extinguished the fire in the valley, but also made Zhuge Liang lose his mind on the spot.

"How is it possible, I have obviously observed the celestial phenomena, and it will definitely not rain today, so how can it suddenly rain heavily?"

Zhuge Liang's clothes were wet from the rain, his hair was wet and scattered on his shoulders, and he no longer had the calmness of the past.

Chen Xu saw Zhuge Liang's stunned expression, so he laughed out loud and said, "The destiny of heaven is mine, when will Kong Ming stay if he doesn't descend at this time?" ”

Zhuge Liang looked a little depressed, letting the rain fall on his cheeks, but he stood there without saying a word.

Chen Xu didn't care about Zhuge Liang at all at this time, and shouted at the guards beside him: "Go quickly and rescue the fainted soldiers, don't let them drown in the rain." ”

"And remember to cut down the trees, otherwise the rain will continue for a while and we will all be drowned."

The drainage system in the valley is very poor, and heavy rain can certainly extinguish the fire, but it will not be long before the whole valley will be filled with water.

At that time, Chen Xu and others, who were trapped in the valley, were likely to be swallowed by the flood.

Fortunately, after the heavy rain, the Jingzhou soldiers on the cliff were also affected, and they had stopped going down the mountain with stones and rolling wood.

Without the threat from the cliff, Chen Xu sent people to collect rolling logs for later use, and on the other hand, he asked people to move boulders from inside, striving to open the valley mouth as soon as possible.

Unlike Chen Xu, who was extremely busy, Zhuge Liang always stood in place and was silent for a long time.

The cold rain hit Zhuge Liang's cheeks, and Zhuge Liang actually murmured softly: "The destiny of heaven is like this, and it can be reversed by non-human beings." ”

At this moment, Zhuge Liang felt mixed in his heart, and he didn't know whether he was happy or regretful.

Zhuge Liang closed his eyes, turned his back to the sky, and let the rain hit his cheeks, but he thought a lot in his heart.

Zhuge Liang's life can be described as ill-fated, he lost his mother at the age of three, lost his father at the age of eight, and later followed his uncle Zhuge Xuan to Jingzhou to escape the scourge of war.

Uncle Zhuge Xuan fell ill on the way to Jingzhou, and then he was in poor health until Zhuge Liang died when he was sixteen years old.

Then Zhuge Liang's family lost their source of income, and Zhuge Liang cultivated the acres while studying and studying.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang had already emerged when he was young, and he was often able to draw inferences from others, so that several mentors invited by his uncle Zhuge Xuan for him felt that they could no longer continue to teach Zhuge Liang.

Later, Zhuge Liang intersected with Jingxiang celebrities, and his knowledge became richer and richer, and he was full of talent and high spirits, ready to show his strength in the troubled times.

But the situation in the world is changing, and Zhuge Liang is a high-minded and arrogant person, and he refuses to go out of the mountain easily.

After Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying became husband and wife, the two respected each other like guests, but Huang Yueying's death made Zhuge Liang suffer a blow.

Zhuge Liang defected to Liu Bei with hatred, spent several years lobbying the princes, led the four kingdoms to attack Chen Xu, killed the Guanzhong army and retreated, and almost defeated the entire Guanzhong.

At that time, Zhuge Liang's reputation shocked all over the world, but he was never happy in his heart, because he knew that the coalition seemed to be strong, but it was easy to fall apart.

Even if Zhuge Liang tried his best to maintain it, the coalition army collapsed after all, and he originally wanted to use himself as bait to die with Chen Xu in this valley.

However, providence made people, and the heavy rain extinguished the fire, and Zhuge Liang lost the hope of killing Chen Xu.

"Providence makes people."

Looking at Chen Xu, who was busy, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but let out a light sigh, letting the rain blind him, he always stood in place and didn't move.

"Maybe Chen Wenzhao's immortality is the best ending for the people of the world."

Zhuge Liang finally looked away, and in the future, his tall body suddenly moved, and he suddenly pulled out the sword of a sergeant next to him and wiped it towards his neck.

Blood and rain mixed together, diluting the red.

Between his deaths, Zhuge Liang recalled the bumpy fate of his childhood, Huang Yueying, and his empty talent, but he couldn't get it to his heart's content.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The sky is long, how thin is it to me." ”

Zhuge Liang left, just like in Wuzhangyuan in history, with unwillingness and regret.

The rain also seems to have gotten heavier.
