The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 872 Fate
"Zhu Qing, take off his shirt!"

"Agarwood, bring me the needle."

"The rest of you, please get out."

After a few needles fell, a very thin stream of heat flowed along the meridians through the limbs and bones. Xie Zhifei was so excited that his whole body rose into the air and floated leisurely in the air.

When he lowered his head and saw that his body was still on the bed, Xie Zhifei was horrified.

Suddenly, a strong bright light came over him, and he felt that his body was pulled hard by something, and he floated out.

Drifting over mountains and across lakes, he landed quietly outside a city wall.

Looking up, the city wall towers into the clouds, and above the huge city gate, the three words "Heishan City" are vigorous and powerful.

Black Mountain City——the place where the old general and [-] Zheng family troops died in battle.

Xie Zhifei's heart was agitated and he walked towards the city gate regardless.

After crossing the city gate, there was a busy scene in front of us——

Groups of soldiers were carrying huge stones to the city wall;
Dozens of soldiers were planting fire bombs;
There was also a row of soldiers wrapping strips of cloth soaked in grease on the arrowheads...

They were all wearing armor, with solemn expressions, and were making final preparations before the war in an orderly manner.

Xie Zhifei was stunned and reached out to grab a soldier who was close at hand. He wanted to ask where the old general was.

His hands were empty, and everything in front of him seemed to be just his phantom.

The phantom moved forward quickly, and soon night fell, the temperature dropped suddenly, and soldiers lit piles of bonfires in the square.

"The general is here."

The noise receded like a tide, and in silence, a white-haired man strode forward, followed by three majestic attendants.

It's grandfather!
Xie Zhifei's eyes suddenly became hot.

"Are you ready?"

"Ready."

"Eat and rest."

"Yes!"

The rice is naan bread, toasted over a fire and swallowed with hot water.

The night was very long, and I don’t know which boy had eaten enough. He began to miss home and hummed songs from his hometown.

The tune was so touching that some people started humming along with it.

"Gouttail, what are you humming? Mom, you're so silly. Come on, recite a poem for me, be more heroic."

"Old general, can you please stop calling me dog tail? I have a name."

"Jin Shaoyan?"

The old general laughed, "Your family is extremely poor, and you are still wearing crotchless pants at the age of five. How come you, Master Jin, are still called Dog Tail?"

"Hey, old general, you know everything!"

"I also know that when you were 12 years old, you went to spy on a widow taking a bath. The fat widow grabbed you into the house and pressed you against the door. You almost suffocated to death because of her fat body."

"Old General, stop talking, I'm so embarrassed."

"Damn it, I like it when I hear it. What a relief!"

"General, if you want to relieve your boredom, turn to this boy."

"I know, on the day of his eldest brother's wedding, he was hiding under the eaves and eavesdropping. His eldest brother poured a basin of foot-washing water on him. The boy stuck out his tongue, smacked it, and licked it twice. He said that the woman's foot-washing water was so fragrant."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

All the soldiers laughed wildly with joy.

The old general pointed at a soldier who was rolling on the ground laughing and said: "You kid, how dare you laugh at others?"

The soldier sat up and glared at the old general: "Why can't you laugh?"

"You're even worse, Xia Xiaoshui. He plunged into the water with half his head exposed. Your brother deliberately peed on your head. You idiot wiped your face with your eyes closed and said to your brother, hurry up. Come down, n/ma, this water is hot."

"Hahaha……"

Amidst the laughter, someone shouted: "Old general, where is my embarrassing story, do you remember it?"

"You, the one who farts the most in the whole Zheng family army."

"And me?"

"The snoring was so loud that the roof of the tent was lifted off." "What about me?"

"You kid, you use a handgun every day. The calluses on your palms are not from holding a knife properly."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Amidst the laughter, the man's face turned redder than a monkey's butt with shame: "Old general, you won the battle, will you marry me a wife?"

"Marry!"

The old general yelled: "I will be the matchmaker myself and pick a girl with a small waist and big breasts to warm your bed."

"Old General, you keep your word, I'll be waiting."

"Every time I spit on you, I'll trick you. How could I lie to you?"

"Dong dong dong dong..."

The war drums sounded rapidly, and the sentry on the city wall shouted below: "Report to the general, the enemy is still ten miles away from Heishan City."

Almost at the same time, the five thousand soldiers stood up and looked at their general.

The old general stood up holding the hilt of his sword, looked at each other one by one, then smiled brightly and shouted:
"You sons and daughters of the Zheng family army, guard Heishan City, protect our great country, protect my parents, wives and children. You must kill them all for me!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The shouts resounded throughout Black Mountain City and echoed in the canyon for a long time.

The five thousand soldiers surrounding the old general had long since disappeared.

Some of them climbed up the city wall, inspected the boulders, or raised their bows and arrows.

Some rushed to the city gate and built the sandbags filled with soil higher;
Others retreated to their own positions and slowly tightened their grip on the sword in their hands.

In the howling mountain wind, the old general held the copper armor in his hands and looked up at the dark sky. Xie Zhifei couldn't help it anymore and shouted——

"grandfather!"

Zheng Yu was shocked and turned around slowly, the cold light in his eyes suddenly softened.

Their eyes met, Xie Zhifei's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and tears rolled down.

Yes, this is his grandfather.

Wearing armor, white hair, and an old face.

"What are you crying for?"

Zheng Yu looked displeased: "I, the son of the Zheng family, only bleed, not shed tears. Keep your tears for me."

"grandfather."

Xie Zhifei felt aggrieved for him, "Is it worth it?"

"Boy, please remember, the Zheng family doesn't ask whether things are worthwhile or not, only about peace of mind."

Zheng Yu looked a little disgusted, "Practice your calligraphy well, your one stroke is worse than a dog crawling, it's embarrassing."

Xie Zhifei's tears that had just been suppressed burst out again: "You, have you read what I wrote?"

More than just seen it?

Calling the court, Hui Hui brought the names of the two children. Hui Hui slapped the table and cursed, "You brat, you know how to play."

Zheng Yu's eyebrows softened, and the corners of her mouth curved a little.

"From now on, don't eat too fast, learn from your sister, chew carefully and slowly; don't go to bed bare-chested, the night wind is cold, and it's easy to catch a cold if you blow your navel;
When practicing Zhengjia Dao, remember to wrap several layers of gauze on your hands and make them thicker so that the palms of your hands will not easily get blisters;
Also, don't bully your sister all the time, give her more, and protect her for your grandfather; by the way, when you see the bright moon in the future, say sorry to her for your grandfather. "

He put the copper jacket on his head, raised the long knife, and his voice suddenly became very low and deep.

"My child, my grandfather can't forgive you. He has wronged you."

After saying that, there was a little glint in his eyes. When the glimmer was about to fall, he turned around and walked towards the city wall.

He walked steadily, with his back straight, like an iron pillar that would never fall. He walked into the night and walked toward what belonged to him...

The ultimate fate!

Xie Zhifei was heartbroken.

"grandfather--"
