"Actually, no matter who planned this robbery, it doesn't matter now. It's good that the relics were not lost." Xue Ruitian thought for a while, "For us, the tragedy of Bailu Academy is important. Not the result, but the whole process.”

"Yes!" Shen Cha nodded, agreeing with Xue Ruitian's opinion, "As long as we make sure that the bandits were not led here by Lu Yicheng and the people behind him, we also need to make sure whether they are using this to threaten Mr. Shen."

"They definitely did not bring the bandits. This can be confirmed now." Liang Jieque looked at Shen Cha and said, "No matter how unscrupulous Lu Yicheng or the people behind him are, they will never do such a thing. This method is too radical. If it fails, the whole army will be wiped out. Lu Yicheng seems to be their more important person. If he loses his life, they will have no place to cry. "

"That's right." Shen Haolin also agreed with this statement, "Conspiracy with rogue bandits is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. Rogue bandits are inhumane. There is no way to determine what happened during the whole process. Even if they made three chapters in advance, they would not abide by it. If something unexpected happens, they will definitely protect their own interests and put themselves first.”

"Brother is right." Shen Cha nodded, "Then are they using this to blackmail Mr. Shen?"

"Then I don't know." Liang Jieque thought for a while, "In my impression, the second brother has never mentioned it to me. It's just that after this incident, his relationship with the second brother became better. He later followed It was also after this incident when I got up at home. But..." she paused, "I didn't see any particularly mysterious or quiet conversations between the two of them. Lu Yicheng's behavior at home was also very normal. Like an ordinary kid, nothing special at all.”

"No walking around or anything?"

"No." Liang Jieque shook her head slightly, "He may be a little shy, he always follows his second brother. If his second brother is not here, he will sit in a corner and read a book without going anywhere. My impression of him is still Very good, although a little shy, but still very good at taking care of others. ”

"It can be seen that you have no ill intentions towards him."

"Yeah, if he really didn't seduce the second brother, I really have no problem with him. He is the only person I have ever met. Apart from his own family, the second brother is the most attentive person to make friends with."

"Aunt Liang is right." Shen Zhonghe nodded, "Although the second uncle seems to have many friends on the surface, in fact he has almost no close friends. If Lu Yicheng didn't do anything to him and had no ulterior motives, he might be the second uncle The only confidant."

"What a pity." Shen Cha sighed softly and said, "Aunt Liang, did Master Shen ever tell you about the whole fighting process?"

"This is what I said." Liang Jieque glanced at Shen Cha and continued, "Because many days after the incident, he didn't sleep particularly well. He said that every time he closed his eyes, he would dream of those scenes. "If he didn't tell someone, he might go crazy because of this. But he didn't dare to tell his adoptive father, and he didn't dare to tell his eldest brother. The only person around him who could tell him was me." She thought for a moment. Said, "I don't know if his state is normal, but in order to comfort him, I just listened to what he said very carefully."

"His condition is very normal."

Xue Ruitian, Shen Jiu, Shen Zhong and He said in unison. After finishing speaking, the three of them looked at each other.

"Normal?" Liang Jieque looked at Shen Zhonghe, "You're not like this, are you?"

"Everyone who has been on the battlefield and killed enemies with his own hands basically goes through this process. I am also a human being, and it is impossible to avoid it. It just depends on the length of the process. Some people are longer, and some are shorter. "

"Then which one are you?"

"I'm okay, I'll get used to it in two or three days." Seeing Liang Jieque's distressed expression, Shen Zhonghe smiled, pointed at Xue Ruitian, then looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Shen Jiu, and finally at He looked at Jin Jing and Jin Miaomiao and said, "Except for you, this process should be experienced by everyone. Moreover, I am very lucky that my situation may be better than theirs. After all, I am I was already seventeen or eighteen years old when I went to the battlefield, and I no longer had any fear of those scenes. But they were different. They were probably much younger than me when they experienced those scenes, and the scenes they saw were... We will never see it in this life." He looked at Xue Ruitian, raised the bar slightly, and asked, "That's what happened, right?"

"It's true. Our General Shen is not yet sixteen years old and has been fighting for three or four years." Xue Ruitian looked at Shen Jiu who was lying on the table again, and then at Shen Haolin who was sitting next to him. Shen Cha, "The general over there will only be eighteen years old at the end of this year, but he has been leading troops for five or six years."

"So..." Liang Jieque couldn't believe her ears, "You are so young, why..."

"The northern border and the southern border are different, Aunt Liang, you can't use our home to see this." Shen Zhonghe sighed heavily, "Jiaping Pass is the real border guard. We can't fight more than a few times a year. Large-scale battles are more often about maintaining maritime security. But in the north, almost only the winter is the truce period, and the rest of the time is spent in flames of war. "

“Master Shen is right.” Such a leisurely chat here. In fact, not only those of us who are from the army, but also the people here have seen these scenes since they were young. "

"The border means that the whole city is armed. At the most critical moment, all the people will go to the battlefield, no matter how old they are." Shen Zhonghe looked at Liang Jieque, "Of the four major borders, only the northern border is the most difficult and difficult. This is also the reason why none of those unlucky censors dared to visit the Zhen Guogong Mansion and the Wuding Marquis Mansion."

"Master Shen, this is wrong." Xue Ruitian waved his hand, "We are also interfered with by them, but His Majesty is too wise to bother with them."

"You guys..." Liang Jieque looked at this and that, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to say it. In the end, she could only sigh, "I thought that my second brother was already very... ...It’s unacceptable, but I didn’t expect that you would be even more..."

"Is it better?" Xue Ruitian waved his hand, "There is no pain or difficulty. We enjoy rights that most people cannot enjoy, so we have to shoulder the responsibility of guarding the territory."

"Now that I look at it, my second brother is nothing compared to you. He is not on the same level at all." Liang Jieque sighed softly, "However, he is a scholar. Although he practices martial arts, it is only to strengthen his body. It was a spur of the moment thing to keep fit and take the martial arts exam, so he never thought that one day he would actually..."

"Cut a living person with a knife, right?" "Yes!" Liang Jieque looked at Shen Zhonghe, nodded, and said, "He said that feeling was not good at all. If he could, he would never I don’t want to have another experience. Unfortunately, his second and last experience was with his own family.”

"Aunt Liang, there is a destiny in the dark. This is the fate of the second uncle. It should be impossible to escape, so you can only accept it." Shen Zhonghe shook his head helplessly, "You should continue to talk about what happened at that time. The guards of Bailu Academy probably didn't stop those evil spirits from rushing into the academy, right?"

"This is for sure. The most tragic scene happened in the academy. Just when the guards came to report the siege by rogue bandits, the dean, the mountain chief and the students hid the gentlemen. The gate of Bailu Academy had already been breached. The bandits marched straight into the front yard."

"The yard at the front? What is it for?"

"The front yard of Bailu Academy is the school hall for literary examination students. Through the atrium, behind is the place for martial arts examinations. Because martial arts examinations are mostly outdoors, the backyard is more suitable. After that, there is the dean. It’s the private property of the mountain chief and gentlemen, and the legendary relic is on the last floor of the courtyard.”

"The target is at the end?" Shen Zhonghe sneered, "They have to flatten the entire academy to get the relics! They are so brave. Did they really not think that anyone would stop them?"

"Mainly, the so-called insiders and bandits have never thought that the group of people from Bailu Academy, who look like they are well-educated, are actually quite capable of fighting. They originally wanted to fight quickly, but they didn't expect that they just broke into the front "The dean, the mountain chief, and the older students originally thought that Lu Yicheng and his second brother were too young and needed their protection." , so we blocked them at the end to ensure their temporary safety. But when the bandits really came in, these two people were very scared, but they still followed the teacher and these brothers and rushed forward. "

"Rush to the front?"

"Well!" Liang Jieque picked up the tea cup, took two sips, and continued, "Did you not expect that? They would just run forward at such a young age? Are they not afraid at all?"

"Are you really not afraid?"

"I guess not. I was just infected by the atmosphere at the time. I thought I was not afraid, but in fact I was still afraid without knowing it."

"This is possible." Shen Zhonghe agreed, "But their courage is still very admirable."

"At that time, if they didn't have the courage, it might be impossible to survive. In addition, they felt that they had been practicing martial arts for many years and could live independently. They were now upright men and could not rely on others to protect them. They also felt that they could not rely on others to protect them. They had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting others, so they rushed fiercely. The second brother said that later the older brothers told him that other people saw them rushing forward and tried to stop them but they couldn't. Hold on and watch them rush to the front with their knives."

"Second Uncle and the others were still young at that time, so they didn't know they were actually fighting. It was completely different from their usual martial arts competitions."

"Yes!" Liang Jieque laughed bitterly, "So, they rushed over with enthusiasm, but when they got to the front, they were a little at a loss and didn't know what to do. But those bandits didn't give them any During the moment of hesitation, they saw the two children rushing over without knowing their own strength. Naturally, they would not let them go. The Duke of Guo had also said just now that bandits would not have any humanity, regardless of whether they were men, women, old or young, in the eyes of beasts like them. It’s full of grasshoppers and ants.”

"Their knives were swung at the two children?"

"Yes, the second brother said that my reaction at that time was that it was going to be over and my life was going to be lost here." Liang Jieque sighed softly, "But the body reacted in time and saw a bandit. The knife fell on his head, and the knife in his hand resisted the chopped knife, barely dodging the first knife. However, with this experience, the rest was smooth. Second brother and Lu Yicheng seem to have been inspired by this. Although they are both children and not tall, their skills are indeed good." She glanced at Shen who wanted to say something. Zhonghe waved his hand towards him and said, "Don't look at me like that. This is not what I said, it was said by the people from Bailu Academy. After that time, we hurriedly went to pick up my second brother home, and it must be a visit. The dean and the mountain chief have tried their best to protect these children. As a family member, it would be a bit ungrateful not to visit. "

"That's true." Shen Zhonghe nodded, "So, it was their evaluation?"

"Yes, the dean had already woken up at that time. He told us that he never expected that the second brother could be so good at fighting at such a young age. They could survive until the reinforcements arrived. The two children were also very pregnant. "Liang Jieque smiled helplessly, "The second brother himself said that the details of what happened next are not very clear. From the fear at the beginning, to the loss of consciousness later, his mind was full of thoughts. To stop these gangsters, as long as they blocked them, they would win. Therefore, the knife in his hand kept slashing at the gangsters, and he saw that they were constantly being slashed to the ground by him, and then, there were new ones. The bandits came to fill in. The second brother said that when he was really inspired, he should have seen the dean and the mountain leader struggling to kill the enemy, but when they were seriously injured by the bandits, the anger in his heart was completely ignited, and there was no trace of it at all. Si's sanity was restored. He only remembered that he roared and rushed towards the place where the bandits were the most. He didn't even remember what happened next. It was the mountain leader of his college and others who saw it. He carried a knife and slashed at anyone he saw. His state also angered the bandits. They began to besiege the second brother. Later, Lu Yicheng and several guards rushed in and dragged the people out. Yi Cheng was stabbed in the shoulder by a bandit for saving him, and his arm was almost destroyed. Fortunately, he was treated in time. "

"Is this the life-saving grace I mentioned before?"

"That's right!" Liang Jieque spread his hands, "If Lu Yicheng doesn't block this for him, if this happens to your second uncle, your second uncle will say goodbye to this world completely, and you won't be able to see him at all. ”

"That was indeed a life-saving grace." Shen Zhonghe thought for a moment, "What happened next?"

"When both sides had completely lost their minds and were about to die together, the government soldiers finally broke through the siege and arrived, and then they killed all the bandits in one fell swoop."

"This is not easy!" Shen Zhonghe sighed, "Egret Academy will probably be able to go smoothly after this disaster."

"Indeed." Liang Jieque smiled at Shen Zhonghe, "You are right, after Bailu Academy reopened, nothing happened again. Until now, it has become a very famous academy. ”

"This is good, it's a blessing in disguise."
