Chapter 183 Can I come back alive?

Pei Shi'an couldn't ride a horse, and his butt was still sore, although after soaking in black water and applying medicine, the pain was no longer so bad.

Xia Chixiao glanced at him: "You are indeed not worthy of riding a horse!"

He told his soldiers: "Find a rope!"

The soldier quickly brought a long rope thicker than his thumb.

Xia Chixiao took it and went to Pei Shi'an with the rope.

Pei Shi'an backed away: "What are you doing? Are you trying to tie me up?"

This voice immediately attracted many pairs of eyes.

Xia Chixiao was unmoved. He walked up to Pei Shian and tied the rope around his waist very quickly.

Pei Shi'an lowered his head and wanted to untie it, but he didn't know how Xia Chixiao tied the rope. He couldn't untie it, and it seemed to tighten a little more with his movements.

Xia Chixiao got on the horse and held the other end of the rope: "If you start running, if you can't outrun the horse, I will drag you away!"

Pei Shi'an: "Xia Chixiao, I am your ancestor!"

Everyone: "..."

This is really a cruel and crazy person.

One dares to take action, while the other only cares about eating and not fighting!

He had been repaired so badly before, and now he dared to call Xia Chixiao's name in public. How dare he?

However, General Xia went too far. He had a high rank, but he couldn't treat an ordinary soldier like this, right?A man has been beaten so badly. It has only been a few hours, and he is asked to run with a horse. How can a man outrun the horse?No normal person could run away, not to mention that his butt was badly beaten before.

Xia Chixiao didn't pay attention to those looks, nor did he pay attention to Pei Shian's resistance. As soon as he pinched the horse's belly, the horse began to move forward.

Pei Shi'an shouted: "Fuck, fuck, fuck..." But he didn't dare to slow down and ran away in a hurry.

Everyone watched as one horse and two people quickly left the camp one after the other.

Zuo Ying scratched his head: "Pei Shian is running like this, won't the wound on his butt crack?"

"Then if it breaks, won't the blood flow all over the floor?"

"It doesn't matter if blood is spilled on the ground. Guess, can Pei Shi'an come back alive?"

"I bet he'll have to shed his skin even if he doesn't die!"

"I bet he won't come back at all!"

"I bet General Xia wouldn't dare to go so far, and he would definitely spare Pei Shi'an's life!"

"How about a game, and I'll be the banker!"

"What kind of banker is this? What kind of game is this? Have you forgotten why Pei Shi'an was treated like this by General Xia? Isn't it just because he was gambling? Isn't it life-threatening?"

Zuo Ying's voice caused the noisy group of people to roar so hard that their heads drooped. Pei Shian's look was enough to alert everyone.Anyone who mentions gambling in the future will have to consider whether their butt is as thick as Pei Shi'an and whether it can withstand dozens of kicks.

Pei Shi'an was cursing in his mind. He had already sent greetings to Xia Chixiao's ancestors to the 15th generation.

During the training, he was the fastest but laziest, but at this moment, he had to use all his strength.

He didn't dare to run slowly. If he ran too slowly, he would inevitably be dragged down by the horse. Once he fell, he wouldn't be able to get up while the horse was running, and he would have to be dragged along.He might even hit the ground on his face. His handsome face couldn't be damaged like this.

Thanks to the warmth and strength in his body after soaking in the black water, he felt as if he was flying as fast as he ran.

After running for more than two miles in one breath, Pei Shi'an was out of breath, staggering on his feet and panting like an ox.During the drill, he had to march in a hurry, but it was only three miles. Moreover, at this time, his height was stretched, and he was injured again, reaching his limit.

Xia Chixiao slowed down.

Looking at the direction he was going, Pei Shi'an couldn't help but gasp and shout: "Xia Chixiao, where are you taking me? Are you going up the mountain? Are you taking me up the mountain? Do you want to dig a hole and kill me?" Buried?"

Xia Chixiao looked back at him and ignored him at all.

Pei Shi'an quickened his pace and actually ran behind the horse's butt. He was only tied around the waist and his hands and feet were free. As soon as he reached out to grab the horse's tail, the horse was also fierce and kicked it with its hind hooves.

Pei Shi'an had barely learned the Six Arts, and with more than six months of practice, he reacted quickly. He hurriedly stepped aside to avoid the horse's hind legs, and unconsciously loosened his grip.

There are really as many horses as there are people.

Xia Chixiao's horse is just like everyone else, vicious and nasty.

It's strange to say that this horse kicks so fast. Although he has practiced it, hiding this time is really easy!
He thought happily: In fact, he is also a genius. He used to be forced to study in Liyanghou Mansion. What's the point of studying?He knew that his talent was not reading, but martial arts.

After going up the mountain, Xia Chixiao stopped riding. He rolled down and walked to Pei Shi'an. He stretched out his hand and pulled. Pei Shi'an untied the rope several times. The tighter the rope became, the easier it was to loosen it.

He put the rope on the saddle and picked up a bundle from beside the horse's neck.Then he patted the horse's head gently, and the horse snorted and slowly walked to the mountains to eat grass.

Xia Chixiao glanced at Pei Shi'an: "Follow me!"

What a joke, he can keep up with a galloping horse, but how can he keep up with Xia Chixiao when he walks?
The two of them walked up the mountain one after another. Pei Shi'an had all kinds of doubts in his mind and talked gibberingly. Xia Chixiao ignored them the whole time and showed no expression on his face.In the end, Pei Shian realized that it was boring and shut up.

Walking to a mountainside, there is a cemetery. On the periphery of the cemetery, there is a tomb.The grass on the grave was sparse, so it was obviously not an old grave, but it wasn't a new grave either.

Pei Shian was shocked: "Xia Chixiao, do you really want to bury me?"

Was Xia Chixiao also buried in that grave?
Xia Chixiao walked over and untied the baggage. Inside, there was a pot of wine, several cups, fresh fruits and offerings.

He stepped forward with a solemn expression, laid out the offerings, poured three more glasses of wine, and placed them one by one in front of the grave.

Then he knelt down.

Pei Shian was puzzled. He came to visit the grave. Why did he bring him here?
He asked: "Who is in the grave?"

Xia Chixiao said: "My parents' tomb!"

Pei Shi'an looked around: "Don't you know how to erect a monument to your parents' tomb?"

Xia Chixiao ignored him and knelt down to kowtow.

Pei Shi'an was stunned for a moment and suddenly thought that Xia Chixiao was talking about his adoptive parents, who might also be his own parents.Even if they are not his parents, they are already dead. As a junior, he seems to have to kneel down when he comes.

So, he knelt down.

Kneeling, his legs felt sore, and the injury on his back and hip made him take a breath.

He kowtowed three times and started talking to the tomb very familiarly: "Xia Chixiao's parents, right? It's not me who complained. Do you know that your son is very cruel? Look, he beat me like this. I The old man is miserable and his butt is smashed. You give him a dream at night and punish him severely. I will come to see you when I have time and bring you good wine and food!"

Xia Chixiao: "..."

He looked at Pei Shi'an without saying anything.

Pei Shian silenced his voice and squatted aside honestly.

It wasn't that he didn't want to sit down, it was just that he didn't dare to sit down because his butt hurt and he had been running for so long. If he sat down again, his butt would definitely bleed.

Xia Chixiao sat in silence for a while. He obviously didn't say or do anything, but Pei Shi'an felt an overwhelming sadness that surrounded the entire place.

Normally he would dare to curse loudly, and he would dare to directly curse his Japanese ancestors in front of Xia Chixiao, but now in front of this tomb, he did not dare to curse even though he knew it was just a tomb of clothes.

After a long time, Xia Chixiao said, "How many times did I kick you today? Do you still remember?"

Pei Shi'an said: "49!"

Probably because Xia Chixiao looked downcast and a little sad, he couldn't help but said: "Actually, it looks like the kick was heavy and it didn't hurt. It's just that he looked a little ugly when he fell."

Xia Chixiao said slowly: "I was practicing martial arts when I was six years old. My master kicked me one hundred and eight times every day, just like I kicked you today! I couldn't stand it on the first day, so I ran back crying and told my father, I don’t want to learn from Master anymore, it hurts too much and I can’t stand it.”

"Damn it, you're six years old, how can you do this?"

Xia Chixiao ignored him and continued: "My father told me at the time that he learned martial arts this way when he was a child. He asked me if I felt pain at first after being kicked, but then my body felt warm and there was no pain. Did you feel like you were running faster, and you didn’t feel any pain on your body when you were running?”

Pei Shian opened his eyes wide.

Xia Chixiao added: "This is a set of methods for opening tendons and loosening collaterals unique to our sect. It can also be said to be a threshold for entry." He glanced at the shocked peer in front of him and said calmly: "You have only suffered 49 I can't stand it anymore. You're really weak!"

Pei Shi'an was dissatisfied: "I, didn't I think you were kicking me? Who could fall for that? In fact, I can take a few more hits!"

He felt a little regretful and looked at him eagerly: "How about you kick me again? This time, I guarantee that I can take a hundred... no, two hundred blows!"

"It's useless. How much you can bear the first time will be the same after that. Besides, it's only useful when you don't know. You already know, so why are you kicking me?"

Pei Shian: "..."

Xia Chixiao seemed to be explaining, but also seemed to be saying to himself: "If you want to lead the army stick, I will do it myself. I can control the force so that you only suffer flesh wounds. I don't trust those executioners!"

Pei Shian glanced at him suspiciously, then looked at the tomb.

After hesitating, he asked, "Did you find out that your adoptive parents are my parents?"

"I don't know, but I don't think you are like it! You are not worthy of them!" Xia Chixiao glanced at him lightly.

Pei Shi'an was angry: "What did you say? What do you mean I'm not worthy? I grew up in Beijing after all. Am I not worthy of being the son of a country man and a country woman?"

"Do you look down on the village men and women?" Xia Chixiao's eyes dimmed a bit: "The village men and women work at sunrise and rest at sunset. At least they are diligent, down-to-earth, and eat with their own hands!"

Pei Shian didn't say anything. He just said it casually and didn't mean to belittle anyone.

However, Xia Chixiao's words indirectly prove that his parents are really village men and women, right?

Looking at the tomb, Pei Shian had a complicated expression.

Either he dislikes it, or he has never seen it before, and the feeling in his heart cannot be described. It is complicated, sad, sad, confused, and disappointed...

Xia Chixiao added: "There is also that medicine, which allows you to soak in the water to absorb the medicinal properties. First, it is to consolidate the meridians of the body that the previous 49 kicks helped you open. Second, it can help your wounds recover early and allow you to run after the horse. , also allows your body to absorb the medicinal properties as quickly as possible. This medicine is also a gift from my master, 300 taels of silver each, it is marketable but priceless, remember to pay it back!"

Pei Shi'an, who was feeling moved in his heart: "..."

He said: "Do you know how much salary I get per month now? One tael, only one tael. Do you want me to save for three hundred months? 28 years?"

Xia Chixiao glanced at him, his eyes full of disdain and contempt: "So you decided to be a soldier in the army in 28 years?"

Pei Shian was choked.

Xia Chixiao was even more contemptuous: "If that's the case, you might as well kneel down here and die."

"Why?" Pei Shi'an muttered, "The richer you are, the more stingy you become. When I have money in the future, I won't be so stingy!"

Xia Chixiao ignored Pei Shi'an and drank by himself. He held the wine jar and clinked glasses with the wine glasses in front of the tomb. His tone was low and sad: "Father, mother, the north is now safe. The people can live a stable life for a few years. What do you think?" , as frontier soldiers, with flesh and blood as the wall, and sinews and bones as the city, as long as you are here, the people in the north will be here! You guard the people in the north, and you will never stop for a moment while you are alive. You have a clear conscience! My son will remember your teachings and be determined to Do your part to protect the people!"

The more Pei Shian listened, the more wrong he became: "Are you sure you are talking about your parents?"

Aren’t you a village man and a village woman?Why did the village man and woman become a frontier soldier again?And he still died on the battlefield?
Xia Chixiao rambled on about the past.

How bloody and bloody the battlefield is, how the swords are shining, how fast the soldiers are, and how horses trample the enemy camp; when it comes to defeating the enemy in front of the battle, we also talk about holding on to the city; when it comes to the lack of food and clothing in the bitter cold, how to kill horses to satisfy hunger and survive Difficulties...

Life in the north is not that easy. It is bitterly cold, water and grass are not sealed, and food is difficult to grow. We almost have to rely on allocating food, grass and winter clothes from various places to maintain what we need.

The people in the north lived a very hard life, especially the soldiers who defended the city, who were shouldering heavy responsibilities.

The general's mansion in the north only has two old servants and a rough envoy woman. It is far from the crowds of servants in the capital, who are well-dressed and well-fed.

Mrs. Pei also often went to the battlefield.

Therefore, the couple does not spend much time with their son, and every time they spend together is a precious memory.

Xia Chixiao's voice was low, and each one of them was his own experience on the battlefield.It was as if Pei Zhang was opposite him at this moment, and father and son had a heart-to-heart talk for two months.

No one paid attention to Pei Shi'an. Xia Chixiao brought him here just to let him take this trip and absorb the power of the medicine.

Pei Shi'an was still very dissatisfied at first. He felt that Xia Chixiao was quite a mother-in-law. Why did he say this to a grave?As if he could understand.

But listening to it, he seemed to have arrived in the north. In Xia Chixiao's description, he experienced those swords, swords, and bloody storms with him.

Is the battlefield like that?
