Cheng Ping's legacy

In the confusion, it seemed that someone let out a long sigh, followed by bursts of severe pain from between the waist and abdomen.

Although Qin Pei was still groggy, he knew in his heart that he might not die this time.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Qin Pei finally woke up slowly.

He tried to sit up, but found that the wound had not healed, and there was nothing he could do.

"It's hard to save you, but you still have to be brave. Why, do you want to die that much?"

An old voice sounded, and Qin Pei struggled to half sit up, only to see an extremely ugly old man leaning against the felt tent with his arms folded and looking at him.

felt tent!

Only then did Qin Pei realize that he was in a simple felt tent, except for the felt on his body, the cotton mattress under his body, and a small charcoal stove, there was almost nothing else.

"Thank you for saving my life, old man!" Qin Pei's throat was swollen and painful, and his voice became hoarse.

The old man approached slowly and sat down beside him, his bottomless black eyes fixed on Qin Pei firmly, there was a strong coercion invisible.

Qin Pei turned his eyes away and said in a low voice, "Thank you, old man, but I don't know when and where did the old man find out?"

The old man smiled softly, "You are really different. If ordinary people are in this situation, they will either ask the old man to stay with you for a while, or be polite and say that they will leave on their own after a few days, like you It's really rare for Fang to get to the bottom of it as soon as he wakes up."

Qin Pei was embarrassed, and was about to exchange pleasantries and plead guilty, when the old man said leisurely, "As expected of a person who has served as the head of the Ministry of Punishment."

Qin Pei fixed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Since your Excellency knows the identity of the subordinate, it should be an old friend, so you might as well report your name. Whether it is an enemy or a friend, you and I have a problem."

"Boy, you're crazy," the old man smiled faintly, "You can't even get off the couch, yet you dare to talk nonsense, aren't you afraid that this old man will take your life?"

Qin Pei laughed at himself, "If I were stingy with my family and life, I'm afraid I wouldn't be in this situation. But if I want to get something from Qin, I'm afraid you are doomed to be happy for nothing. Now that Qin Pei has nothing, No matter in the Turkic or Tianqi Dynasty, I am afraid that he is already a dead person, and has long been worthless."

The old man glanced at him, but didn't say much, he just brought a bowl of fried black medicine in front of him, and said impatiently, "Drink the medicine if you don't want to die."

Qin Pei struggled to hold the medicine, hesitant in his heart, when he was on the boat, he really had the heart of burning jade and stones together, and also thought that he was full of sins, if he died, he would be regarded as paying the debt on behalf of his father, and paid it off with his own body The cause and effect of his father and son in Tianqi Dynasty these years.

But once a person narrowly escapes death, no matter how bad the environment is, he probably won't want to seek death again, right?

Although we can't see each other again, if we can hear about him, we can see this peaceful and prosperous world with our own eyes...

Qin Pei raised his head and drank the medicine without hesitation, his face turned pale instantly.

"What's the matter? Mr. Qin's medicine should be accompanied by cakes?" the old man sneered.

Qin Pei held back the bitterness in his mouth, and couldn't even speak.He sank to the bottom of the river that day with stab wounds on his body, it was obviously not easy for the old man to save him, I don't know how much effort he spent.If it wasn't for the deep involvement, why would the old man bother so much?

But if it's an old friend, why bother to speak sarcasticly to him, without false words?

Qin Pei couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to treat the old man with a weird personality and still respect him.

So Qin Pei dealt with the old man's troubles while recovering from his injury. In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed. Seeing that his injury was recovering and his body was not as weak as usual, the old man sent him to work.

In the beginning, it was the fine work of tidying up the yurt, brewing and pouring tea, and later, as his injury healed, the old man asked him to burn wood and make a fire, and rinse the clothes.Helplessly, Qin Pei was born as a son of everyone. When he was in the academy, he was surrounded by bookboys. Even if he was taken away by the Turkic people later, he was still the honor of the young master. When did he do any rough work?

After destroying two taels of good tea and burning half of the felt tent, the old man finally gave up this idea, threw a sheep whip viciously, and drove Qin Pei out to herd the sheep.

Qin Pei held a sheep whip in his hand, and stood blankly on the pasture in the bleak autumn wind.

After the dawn of the east, the sky is full of red clouds across the endless sky, and there are a few cold stars faintly dotted on the other side of the sky.Lili autumn grass swayed with the new wind, stretching to the foot of Qilian Mountain in the distance.

Looking down at the sheep whip in his hand, Qin Pei chuckled and walked towards the sheepfold next to the felt tent.

Maybe it's a gifted talent, maybe it's the protection of the ancestors, Qin Pei, who can't do anything, has a good look at herding sheep, and can always bring back the flock without falling. When the old man saw it, he felt relieved and even gave it to Qin Pei. Wear an old horse.

So every day just after five o'clock, Qin Pei drove the sheep out, used some dry food at will when the sun was high, and drove the sheep back when the sun was setting.

Another month passed like this, and the old man suddenly brought back a pot of shochu and some cooked vegetables.

As soon as Qin Pei drove the sheep back to the sheepfold, he saw the old man sitting in the tent, who had already poured two glasses of wine and was waiting for him.

Qin Pei saluted and sat down, stretched out his hand to touch it, and found that the wine had been warmed, so he couldn't help but look up at the old man.

The old man looked at him, saw that his amber eyes were rare and clear, and couldn't help sighing, "You are not like him after all."

In the past 20 years, Qin Pei has heard these words no less than a hundred times, and almost every person who is over the age of [-] will always sigh such a sentence when they see him.

Qin Pei murmured, "The old man is as deep as the sea to me, but after all, it was just a chance meeting, and he doesn't know much about my nature. If he knows what I have done, I am afraid that the old man will have to say, 'Shen Xiao is my father. ' is."

The old man took a sip of his wine and said casually, "Why did you do this? Didn't you hesitate?"

Qin Pei was caught off guard when the matter that he deliberately ignored in the past two months was brought up again, and he said calmly after a while, "Everything in the world cannot escape the cause and effect of reincarnation. My father has committed many evils and owes a lot to Tian Qichao. He instigated the two parties and colluded The vassal king, after his death, even left hidden stakes to disturb the court and the family. Even if I really died this time, I’m afraid I still can’t understand the cause and effect, let alone my life? Look at it this way Come on, I still made money after all.”

"If you really want to calculate the cause and effect, I'm afraid it's not that simple," the old man leaned against the table. Although he was living in a felt tent outside the Great Wall and his appearance was horrible, for some reason, his every move was unrestrained and unrestrained. It's hard to feel bad, "You only counted the karma between you and the Tian Family, but others missed it. Let's talk about the Longxi Palace. If it weren't for your father, Zhou Jue's younger brother wouldn't have had so many quarrels with the Longxi King, and eventually Being imprisoned and humiliated, and then having to feign death, hide in the mountains and forests, and spend half of my life empty."

Qin Pei squeezed the wine glass tightly, feeling bitter in his heart.

The old man said again, "You and Zhou Qi are somewhat similar in what happened this time. They both threw themselves into the river at the same time. Why don't you just herd the sheep here with peace of mind and pay back the cause and effect first."

Qin Pei put down his teacup and made a big salute.

"The karma between me and you is over today, you can do it yourself." The old man didn't even look at him, he got up and walked outside the tent.

The Qiang pipes are long and frosty all over the ground, and somewhere someone is playing the [-] beats of blood and tears with Hujia.

The old man paused and listened for a while, and with a clear whistle, he disappeared out of the boundless world in an instant.
