a lifetime

Chapter Thirteen

Pursue

It's autumn, the weather has turned cooler, and the leaves along the way have also begun to turn yellow. They are not as crystal clear and moist as before, and have withered and broken one after another.

Echizen walked all the way to the south, and what he saw was ever-changing.

However, he has something on his mind, so he doesn't have the mood to watch the changes in the scenery.It's just that when he finally stopped, everything was already as it was in front of him.

The old man disappeared.

He has no clues, just looking south with his bestial sense of smell and intuition, it's all God's will.

Although he does not believe in heaven.

But there was very little he could do.

When Senior Bu Er was heartbroken, he lost him.He once swore to stay by his side, but this time, he broke his promise.

When he knew that Guanyue sent a letter to Fuji, he followed him, but facing Fuji's deep blue eyes, he compromised.

Those eyes were too complicated and decisive, and he couldn't ignore them.

What's more, he knew in his heart that even if Guanyue rebelled, no one else could get in between them. It's just that Guanyue didn't see clearly, nor did he admit it.

If it is really a bystander, he has seen it thoroughly.But he couldn't see Guanyue himself clearly, otherwise this tragedy might not have happened.

Fuji-senpai's dearest and beloved older sister, Fuji-yumiko, died.

Her death is inseparably related to Guanyue's betrayal.

He definitely hated Guanyue, he would kill Guanyue to avenge his sister.

But Guanyue is also Yuta's heart, and Yuta is his dearest and favorite brother.

What's more, he really ignored Guanyue.

He couldn't imagine what would happen between them.

He doesn't care either.He just wanted to find him quickly.

Along the way, the further south he went, seeing the turmoil of the people, listening to the flames of war, feeling the changes in the sky, the more uneasy he felt.

By early winter, he was already a short distance away from Yuncheng.I shot a few foxes with fine fur and went into the city, where I changed into cotton-wool gowns and prepared a few more.Then he found a place to live.However, he continued to inquire for several days, but could not find Bu Er's whereabouts, so he had to go further south.

It's just that the further I walked, the more I felt that we were far away, so I turned back to Yuncheng.

At this time, the end of the year has come.When it snowed, it was a vast expanse of whiteness, and there was no prosperity at all.

Echizen picked up an inn to live in, and there were almost no other guests in the inn, so he sat in the lobby by himself.I ordered a bowl of noodle soup and ate it.

The waiter and waiter who were gathered together over there hugged a heater next to the counter, discussing in low voices.

"You said that this Chinese New Year is not like Chinese New Year. What kind of crime did you do?"

"You, just be content. Anyway, we are still alive with enough food and clothing. I heard that several small cities in the west of Ganglan have been breached. The red dogs are like crazy. They eat whatever they find, even Human flesh and bones are all chewed to pieces." The waiter shuddered a few times while talking.The waiter was also frightened and his legs trembled.

"Hey, then you said that Gang Lan was in trouble, will it implicate us in Yuncheng?"

"That's hard to say, after all, it's a little closer."

"Oh, what should we do? Why don't we run away?"

"Run? Where can you go? Isn't there a war now? Oh, there is no east side, but the east side is flooded, and you can't live..." Seeing the waiter's face ashamed as if he was about to cry, the shop waiter Only then did he continue to speak slowly, but now he was much more airy. "But you don't have to be afraid. I heard that the imperial court has sent a new guard to Ganglan. It is Mr. Gan, the military adviser who followed General Tezuka in Longchuan, and the pioneer General Haitang. Hey, you know Longchuan, right? General Tezuka, you know, the general who took back the lost town of Longchuan and blocked the Beibang army at Heishanba. Chigou drives out Ganglan, what are we afraid of?"

"Really? Then when will the military adviser arrive in Ganglan?" At this moment, the waiter also swept away the gloom and was elated, as if he had seen the defeat of Chidan.

"It should be soon. I set off from Longchuan last month. It's time to arrive now that the new year is over. Hey, we have a stable year anyway, so let him go."

The two started talking about trivial things again, Echizen didn't listen anymore, took the long sword in hand and went upstairs, lay on the wooden bed, the window was open, the cold wind blew in, and occasionally brought some fine snow.

It was bitingly cold, but Echizen ignored it, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

He had heard a lot of what the waiter of Caidian had said, but he didn't know that it was more serious than he imagined. Senior Gan was also transferred away from the side of the sect master. It seemed that Xingcun really lacked the talents of a general.

If Senior Bu Er is in...

Wu opened his eyes and closed them again.

For several days in a row, he traveled all over the corners of Yuncheng, but he still couldn't ask any news about Senior Fuji, but his intuition told him that Buer was in Yuncheng, so he had to search inch by inch, day after day. .

Years later, the heavy snow stopped, and the city gradually became lively. Gang Lan fled to Yuncheng with some wealth, and Yuncheng became more prosperous and chaotic.

And he began to search outside the city, searching for small mountain villages and other places within a radius of a hundred miles.Still didn't find Buer, but met Huadi.

A simple person, on the other hand, came to Yuncheng based on intuition. If he thinks about it, he can't go wrong in Yuncheng.So they exchanged information with Huadi, made an appointment to meet, and went to find each other.

That day, Echizen was still asleep when the wind came, and he was shocked, and took a small knife, with a note tied on the tip of the knife, which looked like an address, written in unfamiliar handwriting.

writes.

A valley twenty miles southeast of the outskirts of Yuncheng.

The author has something to say:

Well, Echimae, I will make it up to you
