a lifetime

Chapter Twelve

Bamboo Horse (Safuji)

Saeki knew that he would definitely meet him in this martial arts meeting, the famous Fujitsu Shusuke, but he didn't expect to see him like this.He had conceived countless opening remarks, but at this moment, there was only one soft call left.

Fortunately, Buer doesn't mind.

They are the same as before.

No, not anymore.

There are so many people around me.

It turns out that sometimes the rumors in the rivers and lakes are true, and Fuji and Tezuka are really close.

There is also Echizen, there is also Kanyue, and Kikumaru.

And birch.

However, Buer still calls him Xiaohu, his voice is gentle and pleasant, although it is not as sweet and glutinous as when he was a child, it is more touching.

And he still called him Zhou Zhu, he had listened carefully, except for sister Yumiko, he was the only one who called him Zhou Zhu.Even Tezuka only called out.

He was suddenly very happy, unusually happy.

Liujiao and Qingmen get along very well, an unexpected hit.So they made an appointment to go to the imperial capital together.

Zuo Bo is not a small and conscientious person, he also likes Qingmen and his party, so they naturally get along well.

However there is only one person, whose nameless feeling is annoying.

It was the man who called himself Sanada.

He was sure that he didn't call Zhou Zhu Xiaozhu because of that person.It was his intuition, which told him that that person was not simple, not only not simple, but also not a fellow.

It is impossible to be afraid of the enemy.

He carefully understood the person's background and found many doubts. He was very curious about how Qingmen trusted him.

Asked Buer, Buer himself was puzzled, as if he asked something strange.Ask Kikumaru, Kikumaru said a bunch of what you asked meow Sanada meow Sanada and Fuji have a good relationship meow.Asked Echizen, Echizen asked why he doubted.Asking Taocheng Taocheng said that if you believe it, you believe it, and then quarreled with Haitang again, so he couldn't ask Haitang.

In the end, he had no choice but to ask Tezuka. Tezuka was polite, but the answer was too simple: "Fujixin."

He reasoned for a long time and finally understood.

Because Yuta trusts Guanyue, Buer trusts Yuta, and they trust Buer.

He had to admire it for a while, and then suddenly remembered that if Guan Yue rebelled...

However, Yuta trusts Guanyue very much.

He suddenly felt scared, that watching the moon hurt Yuta's right hand, although it was not his intention.

After thinking about it, he was still worried, so he kept observing Guanyue secretly.

That Guanyue doesn't have a good temper, he doesn't care about everyone in Qingmen, but just looks at Budu, focusing very deeply.

It turned out that there was no taboo, so persistent.

Then it won't hurt Bu Er.

Thinking of this, he was relieved, as long as Guan Yue did not rebel, there would be no accidents.

However, he still ignored Guanyue's occasional flashes of hatred for Sanada.It's just that this negligence was enough for him to feel guilty and blamed himself for a long time later. He thought that people who loved Buer would not hurt Buer, but he didn't think Guanyue was an exception.

Because of the delay of two days, the journey was even tighter.

Apart from resting for an hour at noon when the scorching sun is strong, he is also on the road at night, and rests for only two hours.

However, when it was only a day or two away from the imperial capital, an accident happened.

It was very late at night, and everyone stayed in a farmhouse.

The farmhouse is not big, Qingmen and Liujiao live in a room each, sleep on the floor in a row, the weather is very hot, so the windows are open, the windows of the two rooms are next to each other, and the night is quiet, so you can Hear each other's breathing.

Zuobo slept very lightly, he could hear Buer's unique breathing, he thought it was a dream, and the dream was not a good one.

Immediately afterwards, Bu Er woke up with a start.He panted for a while, and stopped breathing for a while.

He hurried over to see him.

Bu Er exclaimed: "It turned out to be him." He pushed him away and ran out, he followed, and the rest of the people woke up one after another, startled, and followed.

When he arrived, Fuji was standing blankly in front of Yumiko's bed, his outstretched fingers stopped in mid-air, motionless.

Yuta walked over and tried to call out: "Brother..."

no respond.

He followed Buer's line of sight, and suddenly trembled uncontrollably, and knelt down on the ground with a plop.

Then there was a shrill scream: "Sister!"

The air seemed to be torn apart.

Echizen and Huadi approached first, and they didn't meet Fuji, so they froze a step away, unable to move another half step.

Kikumaru took two steps forward and then stopped, not knowing what to do.

Saeki clenched his fists.Finally turned around and left, but did not see Sanada and Guanyue.He hurriedly asked someone to look for it, but there was no trace until dawn.

Fuji and Yuta have been staying in Yumiko's room.

Yuta has been sobbing, but Fuji has been very quiet.

It was unnaturally quiet.

Saeki is the clearest about the feelings of the three brothers and sisters.It was a kind of ultimate protection without self. He still remembered that the little Fujigo was in front of Yuta, and suffered violent kicks and beatings, and then he lay down for two months to recover.

He also remembered the little Yumiko carrying the little Shusuke on his back, getting up after falling down, getting up after falling down.

He remembered that the three siblings always protected each other regardless of themselves.He remembered Zhou Zhu saying goodbye to him that year, saying that he was going to study martial arts far away, and entrusting him to take care of his elder sister and younger brother.

He knew that he wanted to become stronger and protect them, so he happily agreed and sent him away encouragingly.But he didn't keep his promise. In just two months, his mother died of illness, and he moved to the mortal land with his father.

Goodbye now...

Fuji Yumiko is dead.

Such a beautiful woman died like this.

How could Zhou Zhu bear it?

People cannot be resurrected after death, not to mention that the temperature is extremely high, and there is no delay.The funeral book told Qianhua, while helping to prepare some funeral affairs.

I can faintly smell something, but Buer is still locked in the room, and no one else can get close.

Kikumaru jumped up and down, almost crying.

In this way, he remembered some things, things they all forgot that day.It turned out that after listening to the sound of Sanada's piano, he was completely confused and changed his memory.

Speaking of this, Taocheng even thought of those few days when they heard the sound of the piano and the conversation of the person who captured them. That person was not called Sanada at all, but his name was Yukimura Seichi. He is also Lihai's real sect master, he wants to control the Jianghu.

It turns out that this is the case, it really makes sense.

But it's too late, it's over.

It turned out that Guan Yue really betrayed him.

When Qianhua's people arrived, it was midnight, and the Yin Qi was so thick that everyone couldn't breathe.

Emperor Wu broke into the house, stumbled out with Yumiko in his arms, walked in the empty yard, stopped suddenly, and then fell to his knees, the moonlight shone on Yumiko's face, pale and pale.

Buer chased him out and stopped at the gate.Huadi stood beside him, and he couldn't stand, so he leaned on Huadi's shoulder.

The water-blue eyes were covered with a layer of gray, staring at Yumiko for a long time, the line of sight moved slowly, round and round, without focus from the beginning.Saeki was flustered in pain, met Fuji's eyes, and called softly: "Zhou Zhu."

Buer's gaze stopped, but he was at a loss.

He blinked hard, and suddenly spoke: "Xiaohu? Where's Yutai? Where's sister?"

Still confused.

"Brother!" Yutai pounced on him and hugged him tightly, as if she couldn't control herself, she burst into tears.

He hugged him too much, and it took him a while to react. Tears kept falling silently, but he didn't cry out in the end.

The smell was getting stronger and stronger. Although they couldn't persuade them, everyone prepared firewood. When the sky was about to dawn, the fire burned through half of the night sky.In the afternoon, Qian Hua left with their wife's ashes.

In the evening, Buer received a letter from Guanyue, asking Saeki to take care of Yuta, and went out alone.Huadi and Echizen, who followed closely, came back quickly. Huadi stood at the door, looking at the direction he left, with a gentle body and firm eyes.

Echizen was sitting in the courtyard with his long sword in his arms, his expression was expressionless, but the atmosphere was low, vaguely filled with uneasiness and hesitation.

After a long time, I didn't see Bu Er come back, and the atmosphere became restless.

Saeki couldn't sit still, got up and walked several times, but returned to the original place, looking at Yuta with red eyes.

Tezuka stood beside him with arms folded, even more depressed, no one dared to step out of the courtyard door.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and there was still no movement.

Echizen got up and walked out, and Huadi followed after a while.

Saeki also wants to go, but he can't, he has a responsibility that must be shouldered, Liujiao.What's more, he promised to take care of Yuta.

He looked up and looked around, there were more than [-] people from Qingmen, Liujiao, crowded in this small courtyard, it was weird at first, but now they all showed gloomy and irritable faces, it was even more weird.

He turned around and went into the house, brought a bucket of well water to boil bitter tea, and poured a bowl for everyone.

Can't wait for Bu Er to come back tonight, who can sleep.

However, Bu Er did not come back.

They waited for several days, but they didn't come back, and Huadi didn't come back either.Only Echizen came back, said goodbye to Tezuka and left.

Yuta left without knowing when, without saying goodbye.

He searched for a week without a clue.

In the end, he had no choice but to leave with Liujiao, and he once again failed Bu Er's entrustment.

The martial arts meeting started long ago, but when they arrived at the imperial capital, it stopped again.

Sudden heavy rains fell in Shanqiu City in the southeast, and tens of thousands of people were left homeless.

At the same time, the Chidan, Beibang, and Agou tribes jointly attacked, and war broke out in the northwest, northeast, and southwest.At the beginning, nearly 10 people were ruined and reduced to fish.

The imperial court sent hundreds of thousands of troops to fight against the enemy, but the hungry soldiers from outside the land were like wolves and tigers, not human at all.Although Sanada is brave, he can only protect Mengxi in the north.

In the remaining cities, although there are a large number of soldiers, Nai He Liang will be scarce and can't resist at all.

In the end, Xingcun had no choice but to call together famous people in the martial arts world, and after a long time of lobbying in person, he selected talented soldiers to go to various places to defend against the enemy.

Baishi has an advantage in terrain, so he took Sitianbao Temple to the southeast for disaster relief.

Tezuka took Qingmen and others to Longchuan in the northeast.

Saeki and Liujiao went to Nishimaru, which is a snowy area in the northwest, very cold.For people like Liujiao who have lived in the south for a long time, it takes a long time to get used to it.However, the situation did not allow them to adapt, and just set foot, they began to fight day and night.

And this war will last for a long time.

Looking at the white snow and the scarlet blood, he would sometimes think of Yukimura's face at that time, and he really wanted to ask him, what is it like for him to be so desperate and tricky, but in the end, the sky is turned upside down?

But he finally held back, that person, I'm afraid he will get retribution.

All living beings suffer, and there is no escape.

The author has something to say:

Wow...I'm sorry for you, Fuji...
