Oracle of Terra

"On this point, I have something in common with General Zuo. When I returned home with injuries, I always had to watch out for the worried faces of my wife and children, so most of the time I went out and recovered before returning home."

"Really? It's a pity that this evil spirit has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, so I had to use the talisman seals prepared by the Tianshi Mansion and the engravings on my body to suppress it. I heard that the emperor's inner guard over Usas, Can all use the power of demons?"

"That's different. That's turning the body into a different world. Under the heavy protective clothing, it's no longer human, but the protective clothing looks like a person."

"It sounds really scary."

Although what he said was terrible, Zuo Xuanliao's hearty smile never dissipated. Telles could tell that this man had achieved his current status after going through a lot of wind and waves, and because of this, his son's face was quite big.

"General Zuo is a bold person, not the same as Young Master."

"That's right, this kid is more like his mother, he's always a little prudent in doing things, but he's still a bit like me in his bones, but unfortunately he's not strong enough."

"Father...."

To be honest, Zuo Le also yearns for a masculine image like his father, but it's a pity that his mother prefers his current appearance, and no matter what she says, she won't let him be shaped like his father.

"I think Mr. Zuo's behavior is quite good, Mr. Pianpian, he seems to be quite popular with girls, right?"

"That's right, this kid is not like me. He's big and thick, and he's as handsome as his mother, but he just doesn't like his uncle."

"Well...."

Zuo Le was a little speechless. It was not so much a treat for himself, but more like the feeling of visiting relatives during the holidays. At the dinner table, his father liked to discuss his matters with his uncles.

"Master Zuo."

"Mr. Cyril."

Mr. Zuo looked at the old gentleman who called him. He was a little surprised when he saw the deceased Su Sheng from the information, but after considering the identity of Telles, he was not surprised at all. I understand why some people in Si Sui Tai are so eager for the power of the incarnation of Sui Beast.

"Actually, I'm more curious about some of your father's combat experience."

"I think father and the old gentleman should get along."

Both my father and this old man have experienced many battles, and they are all veterans in the battlefield. However, after his father retired from the front line due to the erosion of demons, he can only concentrate on training and training some backwards. The more reason why Zuo Le is not liked by his uncle is that he did not participate in the army like his father Zuo Xuanliao. For his father's face, those dissatisfaction only existed in his heart.

"My father reminds me of an old comrade-in-arms, but unfortunately he died in the war with Sargon."

"That's really a pity."

"Yeah, that's an excellent man. Forget it, don't mention the depressing things. It's better to wait for the food to be served."

During the chat, dishes of delicacies were brought to the table one after another, and Zuo Xuanliao probably understood why his son had said something in the study. If it was placed in the past, this person would be Mingzhu, if placed in the current era, he would be a strong enemy, but if Zuo Xuanliao evaluated him, Telles, the natural disaster warlock, is a man who would feel a pity to be an enemy, and from the standpoint of Dayan, standing From the standpoint of a soldier in the army, the ideas and achievements that Telles advocated are indeed very good.

After all, what he did was something that only idealists and people with brain problems in the eyes of most people would work hard for.

Although it is also possible that his ability as an ancient thing gave him an advantage, what does it matter? If he didn't do it sincerely, then how could he have such an achievement?

"Brother Te, it's too late to meet each other today."

"General Zuo is polite. I thought that people from the military would be hostile to me, a natural disaster warlock. Today, it seems that Dayan is really extraordinary."

"Hahaha, as far as Yan Guo dialect is concerned, Brother Te is much more fluent than many foreign people."

The old carp on the side looked at the two people who started to call each other brothers after chatting, and he thought, is this guy Telles surnamed Te?

My little girl, the little devil, calls him Artege Atege.

"Come!"

"drink!"

Zuo Le was also in a delicate mood when he saw the two people who had become brothers. He and his father justly said that they should observe for a while, but his father got into it himself. It was very strange. Dad, can you be more normal.

"Huh? Brother Te's golden seal on his waist?"

"Oh, a brother Jinghuai gave it to me, saying that except for some places that I can't go, I can wander around the whole capital."

"Brother Jinghuai...I see."

"Father, that golden seal is..."

"Hey, Le'er, give it to my father! At your age, you should exercise more to improve your drinking capacity, at least those cousins ​​of yours who have a drinking capacity will be beaten all over the place!"

If Zuo Xuanliao wanted to say that he was dissatisfied with his wife's decision, he was still dissatisfied, but he was more considerate of his wife. His long-sick body was always warning her, making her want to To save his son from this pain.

If he was still a perfect body, his son would probably not be a candle bearer, but a sergeant protecting his country.

Half a moment later, Zuo was overjoyed and lying on the table, while Zuo Xuanliao was blushing and laughing loudly. He was drunk, so drunk that he seemed to forget the pain in his body. Changeable, candle holders use their power to run amok. Although there is a Taifu to check and balance, he still feels that the weather in the court is getting worse day by day, and his son is involved in it. He also wants to get him out of the quagmire as soon as possible, but He felt that if he was just idle, his son's fighting spirit would be too pitiful. In the past, he would have been stared at by his uncle. Isn't the Dali Temple inspector and envoy just an idler who approves notes?

Ten years ago, Zuo Xuanliao would have scolded him for being an official fart, but today, he feels that his vigor is about to be honed by this pain.

"Mr. Lao is here."

"It's okay, I enjoyed my drink today, I hope General Zuo won't be scolded by his wife after he returns."

With a rosy face, Telles looked at the servants of the general's mansion with a smile, and the latter could only smile wryly. After all, the two of them were drunk as hell, and the lady's reproaches would certainly not be less. The master's body... .

The servant who had worked in the general's mansion for a long time could only shake his head.

"Then, I'll take my leave, little one."

"His Majesty."

Seeing the car of the General's Mansion going away, Cyril, who was standing in front of the door of the Star-picking Tower, looked at Telles beside him.

"General Zuo's body is eroded by demons, you should have a solution, right?"

"Why, Cyril, are you a hero and cherish a hero?"

"Not really, I just feel that compared to dying on the battlefield, the feeling of being able to only rely on fighting due to injuries should be uncomfortable."

The same was true for Cyril Linguang in his old age. He was bedridden because of injuries, and he could only watch the family's decline and his son's grievances, and lamented his own incompetence. Although compared with him, Zuo Xuanliao's reputation and glory Both were in the midst of He Dayan's prosperity, and no one would let a well-known general lose his own lintel.

"Dayan is a good country, Your Majesty."

"Yes, this place is indeed a good place, but it is also limited to Terra, Cyril, do you think what we are going to do is right or wrong?"

"For the sake of the future, let the people in the future comment. For now, we can only continue to work, Your Majesty."

"That's true, but it's not impossible to solve the problem of General Zuo's body. It's just that if I sell this favor at will, I'm afraid people will think I have ulterior motives. Let's wait for a while. , not swinging yet."

Looking at the starry sky under the night sky, Telles narrowed his iridescent eyes shining with streamers under the sunglasses.

608. Father and Daughter

"........................."

"and many more."

Chen Qingyuan pushed open the gate, still looking haggard. Today, he planned to go to other places to hide for a while, but he didn't expect his daughter to block him at the gate like this. What she was holding was his penguin Dao Bing.

It was a Taoist soldier he made after an old friend in Longmen, and now it looks like it can't move, which makes people feel sympathetic.

"How long are you going to hide from me?"

"................."

Her eyes were burning, as if he had dreamed of her before, but she was no longer, and he failed to let her come out of Edward's death.

"What do you want?"

"I.........."

The man who used to treat her harshly had such a weak attitude, which made Chen Huijie a little angry, but if she wanted to say something, she couldn't say it, because although this man was related to her by blood, he was almost a stranger .

There is already an invisible thick wall between their father and daughter.

Penguin Taoist left, Chen Huijie remained silent, but Chen Qingyuan could only shake her head.

"There's nothing to say between you and me, Hui Jie, this time you're in Beijing, go back earlier, Jing Huai won't make things difficult for you, what he wants is just Yan Wu's attitude."

After speaking in a soft voice, Chen could hear the weakness in this man's tone, his footsteps were weak, and he seemed to be walking unsteadily, and the resentment in his heart seemed to fade away because of this haggard appearance .

"and many more!"

Chen Huijie still stopped the man.

He also stopped, and turned his head to look at his daughter who had grown into a big girl, and at Chen Huijie who already had a bit of her face.

"Why did you leave in the first place?"

"Because my heart is dead, I am a useless person who can't do anything, Yanwu will not stop me, Jinghuai will not deal with me, because they all understand that I am useless, just in this mansion, rotten Smelly, and then just wait to die, the reason why I didn't just die, probably, I still want to see you."

He is a cowardly person, or in other words, he has become a cowardly person. The once high-spirited, once heroic, and once competitive thoughts all disappeared on that day. His wife, he The woman whom she yearned for with all her heart, she sat there, holding the sleeping Hui Jie, and died quietly.

He stayed there for a whole day, until two days later, Wei Yanwu discovered him, and he lost to bury her next to Edward.

He agreed, and he also knew that it was her wish, and that was the ending she should have been looking forward to.

As early as when she met her beloved, he knew that he had no chance, and when Yan Wu asked him to take over, although he looked at her sad face, he also felt the same, but more, he was still happy, he Get the person you like, or with the approval of the person you respect.

But that is not happiness, but suffering, but torture.

Even after Hui Jie was born, she only smiled for a moment.

What she loved was Edward's daughter, and she never paid much attention to Hui Jie, as if she was looking at a stranger.

Why did you just walk away?

He looked at the angry girl in front of him with cloudy eyes, her eyes seemed to be a little bright, she was a strong child, occasionally in these years, Jing Huai would send someone to talk about her, and she became the supervisor of the Guard Bureau Cha, became the Superintendent of the Guards Bureau, just a few words.

Probably because he didn't want to come to this broken place one day and see him hanged on a white silk, that would be too useless.

The master came to see him, but in the end he slammed the door angrily, and his classmates came to see him, but they also broke up unhappy.

He lost everything, but the man who should have hated him the most always paid attention to him.

Chen Qingyuan thought, maybe even for the sake of those who cared about him, he shouldn't just die like that, maybe his rotten life has some effect after all.

Look at her, she is slim, she has become a good girl who can be praised by others, even by Yan Wu's side, she is still a good girl with integrity and kindness.

Just like her.

"What about now, is your heart still dead?"

"Probably, I don't know, like a walking dead, just living here, but not like a living person, but that day, when that girl told me about you, I was still thinking, I still care about you .”

He raised his pale and thin hand, which felt so heavy to him.

"Huijie...do I deserve to die?"

"Don't ask your own daughter such things. Although I hate you, I won't tell my father that you should die."

"I didn't let your mother think about living. I was thinking at that time that maybe her heart was dead too."

"................................"

Looking at the sickly person in front of her, Chen Huijie gritted her teeth.

"Can't you be a little more aggressive?"

"I have lived up to the glory of my ancestors, and the lintel was held high. At that time, I was a man of the hour in the capital, but that didn't change anything. I couldn't change Yanwu's situation. I couldn't change her departure. I was brooding, Hui Jie , I want to go with her, but if a man dies, it is more important than Mount Tai. Even if he dies, he can't die like a feather. Then when you die."

He seemed to be complaining, telling, or saying something incoherently.

"Who cares what you think."

Chen Huijie was too lazy to say anything to this sick man, so she dragged the man up.

Naturally, he had no strength to resist.

"Where are you taking me?"

Leaving the courtyard and walking to the street, the streets of the capital had already been engraved into his memory. The haggard face and the domineering girl attracted the attention of passers-by, but no one wanted to meddle in their own business. After all, the girl The red scabbard behind him looks a little scary.

"see a doctor."

Short and powerful, he was dragged by his daughter to the hospital.

"Doctor, please take a look at him. Is there any way to mend him."

"This... isn't this Master Chen?"

"Zhao Langzhong, isn't Pingyuan on duty today?"

"Pingyuan went to another area for a visit, but you are a rare visitor."

The old man smiled helplessly.

"This girl, you are so enthusiastic about taking Mr. Chen to see a doctor. You can see that she is a warm-hearted person. But let me tell you, Mr. Chen's heart disease must be cured first, otherwise no amount of medicine will be able to cure it. He looks like this."

"It's okay, doctor, just mend his body first, and you can prescribe a prescription."
