Fantasy: Starting From Being In A Desperate Situation And Running Around As Escorts

Zhang San bit the wooden stick to prevent biting his tongue due to the severe pain.

Li Changshou picked out the arrow and asked, "What are you going to do next?"

Zhang San spit out the stick and said, "I don't believe those people's nonsense. They will arrive in the capital soon."

So after a night's rest, the two men and two horses set off again and rode away.

Zhang San said he didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything else along the way.

They took a small road, and it was already five days before they reached Liguo's capital.

.......

The capital city in the distance looked like a giant beast, crawling there quietly.

Zhang San stood in the bushes and looked south, motionless, like a sculpture.

The battle flag fluttered over Kyoto.

Under the fiery red sky, the sunlight falls from the sky over the vast land, forming beautiful and delicate spots of light.

Li Changshou didn't ask about the result. He knew it by looking at Zhang San's expression.

He chewed a leaf, which he recognized.

It tastes bitter, removes dampness, and relieves heart fire.

Li Changshou chewed several pieces in a row, and did not forget to reach out to support Zhang San who was about to fall.

“This...impossible...impossible...how could Liguo be destroyed?

The jade seal is still there, and the destiny of the country is still there...Li Guo will not perish..."

His eyes widened and he kept talking.

As we talked, I burst into tears at the end.

Crying about this miserable life.

The family is poor and cannot afford to raise three children.

He could only go out to serve as a soldier.

The young man leaves home and the eldest brother returns home.

After a life of wandering, the Tang Dynasty regarded their soldiers who left the country as human beings.

Withholding military pay and making them dead soldiers.

The dream of establishing a successful career has been shattered long ago, and in the end, all he wanted to do was follow the prince and fight for a way out.

Friends around him died one after another, leaving him alone.

I was lucky enough to return to my hometown, but I never thought it would end like this.

He cried so hard that his nose and tears flowed profusely.

It was as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances he had suffered in his life.

Li Changshou didn't know how to comfort him.

How could his fate be any better than Zhang San's?

After crying for a while, Zhang San seemed to have dried up his tears and turned into slight sobs.

"...Who knows, I can still find your family." Li Changshou said softly.

"Ahem!"

Zhang San coughed violently and coughed up a pool of blood.

The general's arrow failed to kill Li Changshou, but Zhang San's weak body could not withstand such a serious injury.

Zhang San finally stopped sobbing, and he tremblingly took out the jade seal hidden in his chest.

Staring at his cloudy eyes, he looked at it carefully for a long time.

"A year ago, the prince secretly returned to China, and when he came back, he had this thing.

The prince told me that the jade seal is the destiny of the country, and the jade seal will not perish if it stays in the country..."

He rolled his cloudy eyes, glanced at the expressionless Li Changshou, and suddenly smiled.

"I am miserable, but you are even worse than me. Without you, I wouldn't be able to get here."

Li Changshou pondered for a moment.

Maybe... maybe Zhang San didn't get here, but it was a good ending for him. "

Zhang San continued: "I only gave you a deposit, and it seems that I can't give you the subsequent escort money now.

Of all the valuable things on my body, this was the only thing left. "

He handed the jade seal to Li Changshou.

"I don't know if this thing is worth anything, but it's a jade seal anyway, so it can be used as escort money."

"Forget it, this trip is not bad, let's waive the escort fee." Li Changshou said, "If you really have no choice, just come with me. Ping An Escort Agency in Northern Liaoning. Are you interested in becoming an escort?"

"I can't live much longer. If I don't go to Datang, I will die.

I also want to die at home and cannot be a lonely ghost. "

Zhang San insisted on handing him the jade seal.

"Take it, there's no use leaving this thing to me."

Before Li Changshou could refuse again, he said again.

"Otherwise, I will be found out by the Anguo people, and I will feel sorry for the prince."

Li Changshou hesitated for a moment, but finally took the treasure that Zhang San had hidden all the way.

Made of jade, no more than a few inches in diameter.

It felt heavy to the touch, and a cold feeling spread to my hand.

"Okay, there's no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever, so let's just go here."

Zhang San's face was pale and his chest was heaving.

"You really don't want to leave?" Li Changshou looked at him.

"I'm not leaving, I'm tired."

Zhang San closed his eyes.

After a moment of silence, Li Changshou stood up and reached out to hold the reins.

After taking two steps, he turned back.

"You really don't want to leave?"

Zhang San silently waved his hand.

Li Changshou took off the wine Calabash from his waist and placed it next to him.

"gone."

Li Changshou rode away, then suddenly paused.

"If my parents are still alive, take care of them for me.

If you find out how many sons your Little Brother has had, remember to write me a letter.

And who did your childhood sweetheart marry? Is your Little Sister married to Song Laosan at the entrance of the village?

After listening to what you said, even I became curious.

Liaobei Ping An Escort Bureau, don’t forget..."

Zhang Sanyi smiled, "Okay!"

.........

Golden glow filled the sky, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red.

The black horse's hooves fell on the meadow and stood on the top of the hill.

Li Changshou narrowed his eyes slightly, and the breeze blew by his ears.

He was about to turn around and leave when suddenly there was a loud shout in the distance and he looked back.

Under the setting sun, the big flag fluttered in the wind.

The people on the horse were constantly swaying in the wind, like candles on a winter night that could be extinguished at any time.

The soldiers on the city saw only one man and one horse, and they ran towards them holding high the flag of Li Guo.

Suddenly, the alarm bells in my heart rang loudly, and my bowstring was fully drawn.

"who!?"

The blood-red flag fluttered in the wind, like a dead soul nailed to the flagpole.

Zhang San seemed to be galloping amidst the sound of the majestic horn, riding his horse over the ravines, ravines and obstacles set up outside the wall one after another, and rushed towards the huge and magnificent capital not far away.

Under the illumination of the setting sun, a long black shadow stretched out on the ground, like a dividing line.

At this moment, the long-lost blood in his chest ignited again.

This time, there were no thousands of troops.

The once arrogant Liguo Wolf Guard was now the only one left.

"Li Guo Royal Camp Soldiers Riding School, Zhang San!!"

The voice was hoarse, but firm and powerful.

"Li Guo is dead, lying on the ground without killing!"

"Li Guo is not dead, kill him!!"

As soon as the word "kill" was spoken, a strong smell of blood seemed to fill the air.

In a daze, it seemed like I was back to the time when thousands of troops were charging.

Arrows flew like rain, and flags fluttered in the wind.

The ancient ballads carried far away in the wind, seeming to commemorate the soul of this soldier in his life, and also seemed to whisper that period of history.

........

A remote village thirty miles away from the capital city.

The village has long been deserted, not to mention inhabited by people, and not even a wild dog can be seen.

There are only countless lonely graves.

Li Changshou saw several of the tombstones.

The name above, he heard Zhang San read it all the way through, couldn't be more familiar.

His parents, brother, Little Sister, nephew...

Looking further down, one of the tombstones has four large, crooked characters written on it.

Tomb of Zhang San.
