Han Xiang

Chapter 65
Hua Tuo's fame at this time was far less exaggerated than later generations, and it was only spread among states and counties.

In later generations, Hua Tuo was not only lured by various medicines, but also frequently appeared in novels written by him, and the word "green bag" was almost described as a fairy method.

Long Xiang believed that Hua Tuo's medical skills were superb, but he didn't believe that there was a magic shot that would work as described in the novel.

Qiao Rui's trauma happened to match Hua Tuo's major, but it was a pity that Xu Ding's cold answer wiped it out.

"Do you have any news about him?" Long Xiang still didn't give up.

Xu Ding shook his head: "About two years ago, he came to the village once, and he never heard from him again. Now that the army is in turmoil, it is not easy to find him. It is better to feed your general some wine, forget the pain when he is drunk "

"My general," Long Xiang hesitated to speak.

Xu Ding sighed: "Based on Xu's experience over the years, the situation is already very bad, I'm afraid there is not much time left."

"General."

Long Xiang's eyes were bloodshot immediately, his body wobbled and he couldn't stand up.

Without Qiao Rui's care, a low-level pawn like him would have long been cannon fodder on the battlefield.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on, and the child wants to support but the kiss does not wait.

Before Long Xiang had time to repay, Qiao Rui just fell in front of him, fate is always so unpredictable.

Tang Yu quickly supported Long Xiang with his eyes and hands, and comforted him in a deep voice:
"Yunqi, cheer up, we might as well listen to Xu Zhuangshi and feed General Qiao some wine."

"Oh, right."

Long Xiang hurriedly squatted down with the jug in hand, Tang Yu gently lifted Qiao Rui who was lying on his stomach, and the two cooperated to 'fill wine' to the patient.

As soon as the mouth of the jug reached Qiao Rui's lips, Long Xiang choked up and said, "General, please drink up."

Qiao Rui's lowered hand suddenly rested on Long Xiang's wrist, pulling Long Xiang's hand holding the jug down.

When Long Xiang was feeling surprised, Qiao Rui said with an air of gossamer:
"I just... just heard that I should die a few days ago, and it is enough to live these days."

"Shut up, general, drink quickly"

Long Xiang persuaded with a trembling voice, and at the same time lifted the jug up.

Qiao Rui's sick body was originally weak, but suddenly the strength in his hands increased, and Long Xiang, who was astonished, had to stop moving.

"I can't go back. The children in the family are still young like clouds. I have enough energy. Please take care of them for me."

With a crying voice, Long Xiang nodded violently in response.

"General, don't worry, the last general will live up to his trust."

"That's good. I'm thirsty. Wine."

Qiao Rui reached out and snatched the jug, gulping down her throat, her actions didn't look like a dying person at all.

Even the aftermath has been explained, Long Xiang knew that it was a flashback.

as predicted.

Qiao Rui had just taken a few sips when the flagon fell from his hand and fell to the ground.

The wine was broken all over the place.

Qiao Rui, who was lying in Tang Yu's arms, suddenly went limp.

Xu Ding, who was standing beside him, hurriedly probed his nose with his hand, only to find that his breath had been cut off.

Tang Yu was used to seeing life and death. Although Qiao Rui died in front of him, he was sad, but not as strong as Long Xiang.

"Yun Qi, the general has gone."

"I know I know"

Long Xiang stood motionless, as quiet as the beams and pillars in the room.

"I didn't help, so the deal agreed before doesn't exist. The ten horses are tied to the barn at the head of the village. Remember to take them away tomorrow morning."

Xu Ding patted Long Xiang on the shoulder to comfort him. In fact, since he invited him into the village, he never planned to keep a horse.

In addition to the jar of old wine just now, Xu Ding also asked someone to cook more than a dozen pots of rice, and more than a hundred soldiers finally had a full meal.

Heroes cherish heroes, that's probably the case.

Xu Ding thought that Long Xiang would feel better, but unexpectedly the other party turned his head and looked serious.

"Since we made an exception to invite us into the village, the previous agreement still counts. The soldiers under my command have spent a lot of money. Let's not eat for nothing."

Tang Yu was overjoyed at first, but after hearing Long Xiang's answer, he put down Qiao Rui and slapped himself on the forehead, thinking that he had misheard just now?

Could it be that Yun Qi dislikes our horses?Otherwise, why are you so focused on pushing it out?

After all, this child is young and has never been a family man. Do you know how much food can be exchanged for ten horses?
"A little bit of food is not worth mentioning. I see General Long as a loyal man. How can he take advantage of inviting friends to dinner?" Xu Ding smiled heartily.

Long Xiang shook his head slightly, clasped his fists and explained: "The reason why Long wants to keep ten horses is actually a presumptuous request."

"Please try to say it." Xu Ding frowned slightly.

"Because we have military affairs, we have to travel far tomorrow. It is inconvenient to carry the general's body. I wonder if we can be buried here? After finishing our military affairs some other day, we will come to Guicun to relocate the grave."

Long Xiang guessed that he was in the territory under the jurisdiction of Cao Jun, so he couldn't take Qiaorui's body on the road. Although he promised to come to move the grave and change the grave, he didn't know when he would come. He wanted to ask Xu Dingfan to pay homage to him by leaving ten horses behind. .

"This" Xu Ding stroked his beard noncommittally.

Seeing this, Long Xiang added: "I know that there are local rules in different places. My general is not from your village. It may not be proper to be buried in your village, but I promise to come and move away. The ten horses will be used as a funeral How's the pay?"

"How much space can a grave occupy? Since I agree with you, why are you talking about remuneration?

Since General Long is in a hurry, I will take people to find a place, and we will bury him at night and say goodbye."

Xu Ding turned around and waved his hands, striding across the threshold into the darkness.

"May"

Before Long Xiang continued to fight, Xu Ding was no longer seen outside the door.

Tang Yuxin said that this man is so rich that he deserves to be the leader of such a big village.

Tang Xi approached Long Xiang and asked for instructions: "Yunqi, since the burial is going to be tonight, do you want to call all the soldiers to express their condolences?"

"Uncle Xi, let's figure it out."

Long Xiang nodded lightly, then lamented sadly: "It's a pity that I was in a hurry that day and couldn't collect the bodies of the brothers who died in the battle in the forest. I'm sorry for their trust."

Tang Yu hurriedly comforted: "Serving as a soldier in troubled times, everyone has long been aware of death. Yun Qi can properly settle down their families. I believe that although the brothers die without regret, when they are buried for the general, they can call their names , and everyone sacrificed at a distance."

"Very good, Uncle Xi reminded me to remember every brother who died in battle. When we arrive in Hefei, we will erect a monument to them so that their relatives and colleagues can pay their respects by the monument." Long Xiang looked serious.

"The Monument to Heroes? Very good, very good, I'm going to call someone now"

"Go."

After Tang Yu left, Long Xiang sat down on the edge of the couch, and accompanied Qiao Rui, whose body temperature was slowly dropping.

When the soldiers entered the house one by one to express their condolences, Long Xiang nodded his head like a mourner.

The burial of Qiao Rui was completed at Haishi, and it began to rain continuously at midnight, and the new tomb suddenly became an old tomb.

Xu Ding asked someone to clear out several cowsheds, so that the funeral soldiers could shelter from the wind and rain at night.

Long Xiang originally planned to stay in the cowshed, but because of Xu Ding's invitation, he followed him to the other party's house.

Xu Ding was tall and broad, Tang Yu was worried about Long Xiang's loss, so he had to guard him closely when he said anything, so when he arrived at Xu Ding's house, he guarded the door.

"I have something important to do with General Long." Xu Ding's implication made Tang Yu avoid it.

Tang Yu kept his eyes on Long Xiang, and said seriously: "You can talk casually, I won't talk to you, and I won't spread the word."

"Xu Zhuangshi, please tell me, I have no secrets with Uncle Xi."

Long Xiang looked at Xu Ding and shook his head slightly.

"General Long's loyalty is unparalleled, and the soldiers under his command are also so loyal. It's really amazing."

Xu Ding suddenly changed the subject after boasting, and asked meaningfully: "If Xu's prediction is correct, you are not Cao Cao's soldiers at all, but Yuan Shu's team in Huainan, right?"
