"The third brother and the seventh brother have gone... My eldest brother and I can't lose anyone anymore... No one will forget about revenge! They will never die in vain! But - don't force it! Qingzhi, you

Do you understand?" The sixth brother Gu Ren's eyes were red at this time, and he was saying words to dissuade Chao Lian, but the veins in his hands holding Chao Lian's were bulging, and he used his whole life to suppress his hatred.

Chao Lian almost went crazy and said: "I don't understand!"

He raised his hand and shook off Brother Six's arm.

But when he saw Gu Ren's appearance, he stopped in place as he stepped forward, filled with hatred rushing through his chest. The unprecedented thoughts of killing made him want to abandon all reason and kill people. However, in the end, he could only vent his anger by roaring.

Hatred.

Using only a pair of fists, he smashed the stone wall into pieces.

“Ahhhhh——”

The howl of pain finally turned into a cry.

winter!

Chao Lian bent his knees and knelt in front of the corpses of his two surrogate brothers. He held his head and beat the ground, blaming himself until tears filled his eyes with blood. After an unknown amount of time, a pair of boots appeared in front of him. A hand pinched his shoulder.

, lift him up.

It turned out to be the eldest brother Gu Ren.

Chao Lian had never seen Gu Ren like this.

They have been brothers for so many years, and the eldest brother Gu Ren is like a brother and a father, caring about everyone's life matters in every detail. From quarrels and conflicts to as small as food, clothing, housing and transportation. Sometimes he is too strict, and even makes the third brother roll his eyes and complain.

complain.

Chao Lian was puzzled: [Isn’t this bad?]

The third brother smacked his mouth, pinched his naturally curly plush beard, and held his shoulder with one hand. The two brothers were like mice hiding from the eldest brother who was arresting people everywhere, and hid in the corner to drink wine secretly. The third brother was mysterious.

: [Oh, so you are still too young at Twelve, unmarried and have no mother-in-law, so I don’t understand.]

The question mark on Chao Lian's forehead: [What does this matter about eldest brother... have to do with getting married, starting a family, and having a mother-in-law...? 】

The third brother sighed and said: [When you marry your mother-in-law, your mother-in-law will also take care of what you eat and drink, and also worry about what you wear.]

Chao Lian fell into an eerie silence after hearing this.

The third brother said quietly: [Sometimes I wonder if I have a brother or if I invite a mother-in-law back. 】

Chao Lian suddenly shuddered.

Asked: [Why not invite a father back?]

After all, an elder brother is like a father.

The third brother smiled and said: [Have you ever seen a father who worries about trivial matters? How about being a father and having fun, but being a mother who worries about things?]

Chao Lian: [Then why not invite a mother back? 】

Although the eldest brother's appearance is not bad, he is very different from the beautiful girl. Just thinking about it will give me nightmares in the middle of the night.

The third brother took a sip of wine and said: [Why am I so short?]

It’s enough to be someone’s younger brother, but why should you act like someone else’s son?

The two brothers had just had a few sips of wine when a head peeked out from above the low wall behind them: [What did you two say?]

The head owner's face was full of evil.

【Pfft——Big brother!】X2

Gu Ren climbed over the wall with a dark face: [If I had a son as careless as you, I would have strangled him to death! Do you still dare to run? 】

The third brother's family was killed in Zheng Qiao's army massacre.

Without a father or a mother, without a wife or a son, he was alone and put his feelings on his other sworn brothers. In order to avenge his family, if he could say "We are idiots, we also have the heart to slay the dragon", he is here.

Zheng Qiao died, but he didn't have the opportunity to go to the grave and tell the good news of revenge in person. He didn't even have time to drink and celebrate...

Then he died in the aftermath.

Brother Seven went to snatch his body and was fatally injured.

"Brother--" Chao Lian was grabbed by Gu Ren with one hand, and faced the determination brewing in the latter's dark eyes. The elder brother, who had always had a kind face and eyes, was like a god of murder at this moment, and his tears rolled down unsatisfactorily.

, "It's my younger brother who is incompetent."

If he were stronger...

If you are stronger, you can at least save Seventh Brother.

To save the brother who looked evil but was very kind to them, instead of just watching him use his life's martial arts to protect his heart, hold on for a breath, and finally die in the arms of his elder brother. Even if the wound was more serious.

Some would be good too.

"Qingzhi."

Gu Ren put him down.

With Chao Lian's puzzled eyes, he patted his shoulder, his mood was frighteningly calm, and he whispered softly: "Take good care of your nieces and nephews in the future, and give your sister-in-law a message for your eldest brother. She is still young. Find someone who can understand her in the future."

A good home for Leng Zhire. I, Gu Ziyi, have never felt sorry for anyone in my life, except for neglecting her and allowing her to be ridiculed by the outside world."

Gu Ren and his third wife are almost a generation apart. From the time he was recruited by his mentor at the age of fifteen to now, he has married three wives.

The outside world criticized him for "restraining his wife" and marrying a dead wife. Some people also said that he was "hypocritical" and said that he relied on his dead wife to get promoted and make a fortune. Otherwise, with his background, would he still want to have the family fortune he has now? There are even some meddlers.

He said he would lose his wife in ten years.

When he was forty-five years old, he made a bet that this man would also suffer a bloody disaster. These rumors even spread to the inner courtyard and reached the ears of his wife and husband. The father and daughter came to comfort him. Frankly speaking, these numerology theories were nonsense.

talk...

Gu Ren felt guilty that he didn't have much time to spend with her.

Chao Lian felt uneasy in his heart.

Why does my eldest brother's words sound like Tuogu?

"Brother..."

Gu Ren said: "Just remember."

"Brother!"

Gu Ren continued: "I really want to go back to Shangnan, but Huang Xiguang cannot let us go. It is even more impossible for my brother to surrender to the enemy who killed him in order to survive! Therefore, at home,

I can only leave it to you. You are calm and sensible, and you have nothing to worry about as a brother. By the way, there is Thirteen... keep an eye on Thirteen, he is the only one like you."

Chao Lian suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He moved his shoulders to shake Gu Ren away.

Unexpectedly, there was a sudden pain in that place.

In his sight, Gu Ren's expressionless face was instantly swallowed up by darkness, followed by the force of his whole body being forcibly taken away. His knees weakened and he fell forward, but Gu Ren caught him: "

Second brother, fourth brother, is the coffin ready?"

Lao San and Lao Qi had a rough life before death, so after their death they couldn't even get a coffin and bury them hastily in the soil.

"Brother, it's ready."

"That's good."

Gu Ren put the two corpses into a simple coffin. He held the coffin with one hand calmly and gently wiped the blood off their faces with his sleeve. After cleaning it, he and others put the coffin into the already dug coffin.

Good big hole, fill it.

He looked at the two new tombs, which were brand new and located next to each other.

One faces south and one faces north.

It seems that the two brothers are still back to back, protecting each other's blind spots, just like when they were alive. But in fact, they are still looking at the hometown where their blood relatives are buried, which they can no longer return to. Gu Ren poured wine in front of their graves

: "This place has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and is quiet and undisturbed. In addition, the land is high up, so it is a good place to climb up and enjoy the scenery. Lao San Lao Qi, wait a moment, it won't be long before you and I can have another drink under the Yellow Spring.

Cup. This time, Brother Wei will no longer let you drink."

After saying that, Gu Ren smiled freely.

"After drinking, we will go to hell together!"

Behind him stood eight sworn brothers.

Except for the doctor Lao Liu who was in the rear, the eight people were more or less covered in blood, and someone’s flesh scraps could be found among the scales. After Gu Ren toasted, the other eight people also stepped forward with a calm face and said

After a while, the rain did not decrease but increased.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the sixth brother came forward.

"Brother, it's almost time."

Gu Ren looked back at everyone and sighed: "Why bother!"

The second brother laughed and patted Gu Ren's vest. It made a snapping sound. If Gu Ren hadn't been used to it, he would have been unable to stand still.

"What's it like to have no brothers?"
