guard one person

The extremes of things will be reversed, and the extremes of joy beget sorrow.

Ouyang Xuanning was defeated and suffered heavy losses. The barracks, which originally had less than 1000 people, became much deserted.

Logically speaking, with Xiao Gu's blessing, it shouldn't be like this - but Xiao Gu noticed that Ouyang Xuanning was out of shape all day today.

He is also absent-minded when commanding troops.

Xiao Gu wanted to know what was going on.However, he didn't ask, Ouyang Xuanning first proposed to go out to relax together.

The two entered the forest, found a quiet place, and sat down.

Xiao Gu was dressed in green clothes, throwing away the cumbersome robes, looking very youthful and energetic.Then he sprang up to the tree sensitively according to the image, sat on a branch that protruded, thought for a while, and opened his mouth——

"General...do you have a dream?" He swayed his legs mischievously and said with a smile, "Has it come true?"

"This..." Ouyang Xuanning was sitting under the tree, staring at the ground, as if he was thinking about something.

"I was ignorant when I was a child, and I expected to use my sword to conquer the world in the future. It is really stupid."

"Now...Thinking about it now, I feel that the safety of my family is enough. In this chaotic world, I don't even try to change anything."

"My family..." Xiao Gu stopped shaking his legs, jumped down from the tree, sat cross-legged beside Ouyang Xuanning, propped his chin and said, "It seems quite far away to me. The general's dream is more realistic than Lingchun's. I see—"

"Not far away." Ouyang Xuanning interrupted.This surprised Xiao Gu a little - Ouyang Xuanning interrupted him for the first time, and listened with great interest.Looking at Ouyang Xuanning's slightly flushed cheeks, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.This person...is still so cute.He only heard him say, "That's all. After spending such a long time together outside of Xia, Lingchun...Mr. Lingchun has already regarded this... as a family."

lonely?right?Xiao Gu heard the loneliness from Ouyang Xuanning's tone?He approached Ouyang Xuanning sideways in astonishment, grabbed Ouyang Xuanning's shoulder with a hint of haste and couldn't hide his hope, and asked, "What about the general? Does the general regard Lingchun as his family?" The truth is that it is more appropriate to say that it is a young man of the same age as Ouyang Xuanning rather than a young man.However, Xiao Gu at this time—his expression—is no different from the boy Ouyang Xuanning knew before.He couldn't help nodding, thinking about it, he thought it was wrong, and added, "It's been since the day I brought you back to the barracks."

"Has it ever changed?"

"It hasn't changed."

"..."

Ouyang Xuanning didn't hear a reply for a long time, and the gray sky gradually fell with light rain.As soon as he turned his head - he saw Xiao Gu with his head bowed, his messy long hair lifted a few strands by the wind from time to time.

He cried.

Seeing Ouyang Xuanning turned around, Xiao Gu held Ouyang Xuanning in a tight hug, despising his resilience and willpower.

Since then, I don't want to let go.

Ouyang Xuanning roughly guessed some reasons for Xiao Gu's emotional outburst, but one was not sure, and the other was that he couldn't tell, so he had to hug Xiao Gu and pat him on the back.

"...Thank you, General..."

Hearing his words, Ouyang Xuanning was inexplicably sad -- a little bit bitter.

The trees above their heads were very lush and made umbrellas for them, but not a single drop of rain fell on them.

And Xiao Gu and Ouyang Xuanning also kept this posture until the rain stopped.

Xiao Gu also had enough crying, raised his head, and sat up again, his red eyes filled with gratitude, surprise, disbelief...but he was also so dazed.

If Xiao Gu could see his expression at this moment, he would probably understand that the reason why so many similar or contradictory emotions can be revealed in people's eyes is because they are indeed the reflection of the heart; What can perfectly interpret them than being indifferent.

He took a deep breath, and suddenly said seriously, "General, Lingchun...has a name."
