"I'm not going back! You just want to bring this stinky Taoist priest to claim credit, but have you ever thought about the misery of these ordinary people's families being destroyed by you?”Jing Zhi's every word was filled with anger, and what made Shi Wanbao feel strange was that the aura of a little kid could actually make him nervous.
However, Shi Wanbao was a warrior who had been through the battlefield. He adjusted himself slightly and said,"Those who achieve great things do not care about trifles. The young master is still young, so I won't say much. I only ask for the Young Master's permission to return.”For Shi Wanbao, it was naturally convenient to kidnap him directly. However, he was afraid that this child would cause trouble for him when he returned. Moreover, he was not in a hurry, so it was better to resolve it as soon as possible.
"That's naturally not a problem." Shi Wanbao replied straightforwardly. After all, he was just bringing an extra girl. Moreover, this girl was born peerless. The lord is still young and strong, perhaps bringing him back would be a meritorious service.
"Second, you must immediately dig the grave and bury the girl's father. You can only do it alone.”Jing Zhi said coldly.
At this moment, Shi Wanbao frowned and thought for a moment. Thinking about it, although he had wasted some time, he was skilled and did not lack time. "No problem, but do you have any other requests?"”
Jing Zhi ignored Shi Wanbao's dissatisfaction and replied coldly,""This is the last bit. Third, when Hong Chang wakes up, you must kowtow in front of Hong Chang's father's grave and admit your mistake! Kowtow until Hongchang forgives you!"
At this moment, the veins on Shi Wanbao's temples were already bulging. kowtowing to a commoner? Even if it was a dead man, it was still impossible for the arrogant Shi Wanbao. After a mental struggle, Shi Wanbao immediately said,"A real man is born in this world and should make contributions. How can you lose your gold because of a commoner? Forgive me for not being able to comply!"
"Then don't expect me to go back with you. If you insist, I'll sue you for killing the innocent. My brother will forgive you. I'm afraid that General Zhu won't tolerate you either. If you do as I say, I can let bygones be bygones!”Jing Zhi obviously had no intention of backing down.
At this moment, the veins on Shi Wanbao's temples could already be described as coiling dragons and crouching dragons. After thinking about it, Shi Wanbao said slowly,""I think twice. The most important thing now is to bury the dead.”，"Alright, you guys. Prepare some towels and hot water for me." Jing Zhi ordered Zhu Rong's soldiers.
These soldiers were already subservient to Shi Wanbao, and Shi Wanbao also called this child young master. It was likely that some illustrious family naturally did not dare to disobey and hurriedly prepared. Jing Zhi carried Hong Chang into the house and used a towel to wipe off the blood on Hong Chang's body. A six-year-old child somehow had the strength to carry a twelve-year-old girl, and somehow had the courage to envelop Shi Wanbao. His every move and the gentleness between his brows were completely unlike a child.
As the saying goes, the children of the poor are the masters of the family early. Perhaps it was because of the difference in experience, although the time was not long. However, what he experienced was something that ordinary people could not experience in their entire lives. It was as if fate was calling for him, and everything was urging Jing Zhi to grow.
"Pa!" After Hong Chang woke up, he was stunned when he saw the exhausted Jing Zhi, but he immediately gave him a slap. Jing Zhi's face turned red from the slap, but he did not explain much. He only said weakly,"I'm sorry…"
Hong Chang naturally couldn't just remove the fog of hatred in his heart like this. He roared with tears in his eyes,""It's useless! No matter what he said or did, it was useless! My father has passed away! I can't come back…"
As he spoke, Hong Chang cried as he opened the drawer and picked up the knife inside. He picked up the knife and stabbed at Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi did not dodge and just knelt in front of Hong Chang like a saint who was determined to atone for his sins. As the knife approached, Hong Chang thought of the helpless child who was also lying on this bed. The child who listened to him and wiped his tears was right in front of him…Driven by the hatred of his father's death, Hong Chang hesitated.
It was during this moment of hesitation that a flying stone knocked the knife in Hong Chang's hand away. The stone hit the knife accurately, but it did not hurt Hong Chang at all. Shi Wanbao did not act rashly. He quickly approached and kicked the knife away. He knelt on one knee and said,"Miss Ren, the death of your father because of me has nothing to do with Young Master. It was because I was eager to capture the thief and accidentally killed your father.”
Unexpectedly, Hong Chang sneered and said,"Failed? Accidentally killed? Stop joking! I watched you kill my father with that broken gun beside you without even blinking. You say it was a mistake? I'm afraid you think it's easy to kill him, right? So that I can save some rations and horses for you…"
At this moment, although Hong Chang still had that peerless appearance, his hair was disheveled and his face was ferocious. His eyes revealed endless hatred. "You nobles are all the same! All crows in the world are as black as crows! " That's right…" Hong Chang's curses did not seem to stop.
Yeah? What else could she do? Kill Shi Wanbao to avenge his father? It was just a fool's dream. All she wanted now was to curse to her heart's content, commit suicide, and leave behind endless hatred to go to the underworld to find these nobles and take their lives!
Shi Wanbao, who was standing at the side, was naturally burning with anger. For a self-centered person like him, making such a big decision to kowtow and apologize to an ordinary citizen was already a huge concession. And this girl didn't know how to appreciate him.
Just as Shi Wanbao was unable to contain himself, Jing Zhi hugged Hong Chang, who was half a head taller than him. Hong Chang lowered his head and saw a child with tears streaming down his face. He did not look like a child like last time.
Jing Zhi sobbed, Hong Chang, I know you hate me…but you have to believe that your father and mother will be watching from the heavens. They definitely want you to live well. Don't take things too hard. If you want to scold me, scold me as much as you can. If you want to hit me, hit me as much as you want! Shi Wanbao will also kowtow to your father and admit his mistake. Don't take things too hard!”
Perhaps a child was a child after all and could not say anything better. But often the innocent words of a child were more convincing than any famous orator in the world.
Perhaps it was because Hong Chang was still a child and his mind was not considered mature. Looking at Jing Zhi like this, Hong Chang's heart suddenly softened and his expression relaxed slightly. However, this was only a fleeting moment.
Seeing Hong Chang's expression ease up, Jing Zhi felt relieved. Jing Zhi didn't say anything else. He immediately wiped his tears and recovered. He said to Shi Wanbao,"General Shi, please bring Miss Hong Chang to her father's grave to pay her respects.”
Seeing that Hong Chang had stopped, Shi Wanbao's anger dissipated. Without any nonsense, he said,"Please, Miss Ren."”，Then, she walked away. Jing Zhi, on the other hand, followed closely behind Hong Chang, who seemed to be in a daze.
After Hong Chang came to his senses, he did not say anything. Jing Zhi naturally couldn't open his mouth to say anything. Moreover, what could he say about a child who didn't manage the world? As for Shi Wanbao, he naturally did not want to talk to him. He was completely indifferent to Hong Chang's condition.
Hong Chang's father's grave was not far away. The village where Hong Chang lived was surrounded by mountains. The back door of Hong Chang's house was about a mile away from the mountain forest. This mountain could only be said to be a hill that was less than 500 meters high. Shi Wanbao was also a gentleman who kept his word. If he promised, he would do it. It was just that he was very perfunctory when it came to this kind of unimportant matter.
Shi Wanbao couldn't wait for the gravestone to be polished and engraved. He found a passable wooden board. He picked up the brush and ink, intending to write his name and tomb, but he remembered that he didn't even know the name. He was also too lazy to ask, so he simply wrote "Ren Gong" and thought to himself,"This Li scoundrel is lucky."”In short, everything was done perfunctorily. But what could he hope for?
Hong Chang followed them all the way and looked at the desolate grave. However, he did not complain. What could he hope for in this chaotic world? It would be good if he could find a place for his father to rest in peace. In fact, she wanted to complain. Why didn't she take care of her father's mausoleum herself?
Jing Zhi glared at Shi Wanbao when he saw this scene. However, Shi Wanbao pretended not to see it. After making some preparations, he knelt on the ground in an extremely exaggerated manner and said,"Miss Ren, I accidentally killed your father. I apologize here!”After saying that, he kowtowed loudly.
After kowtowing, he waited for Hong Chang to speak. Unexpectedly, Hong Chang was also crying on his own, completely ignoring Shi Wanbao. This made Shi Wanbao's anger rise again, but he still held it in and raised his voice."Miss Ren, I apologize to you!”
……
After a long silence, Hong Chang still did not speak. This made Shi Wanbao unable to take it anymore. Hong Chang said with a sobbing tone and hatred,"Not to apologize to me! To my father!" After saying that, he fell silent again. Shi Wanbao was furious when he heard that. He kowtowed again without hesitation and said,"Ren Gong, I was eager to capture the thief and save the country. I accidentally killed you.”
The mountain was not high, so he could see it clearly up close. Shi Wanbao saw the smoke and dust at the entrance of the village and the disorderly march. "Not good!" he shouted.
