Chapter 36
"Cheers!"
Yun Zong looked at the orchid-scented wine in his ceramic bowl and said to Bai Qi speechlessly,
"General, drinking is forbidden in the army. You have already broken the law. If anyone else knows about it, they will definitely take a look at you. Besides, Auntie is strict with you when you drink. You can't hold your liquor and you'll fall after three glasses…"
"Pa!"
Bai Qi slammed the table.
"Ha!"
"…Yes."
Yun Zong finished the orchid wine in one gulp and exhaled a mouthful of alcohol. Bai Qi chuckled and said,
"Hehehe, kid, how long has it been since we last drank together?”
After saying that, he picked up a mustard stem from a clay pot. As if he was showing off, he said proudly,
"That woman doesn't allow me to drink? Humph, humph, today, this old man will eat her pickled vegetables and this Cold Dew Orchid Brew. I want to see what she can do to me!”
Creak, creak, creak. The mustard stem made creaking sounds as Bai Qi chewed on it.
Yun Zong was helpless.
"If only you had the courage to say it in front of Auntie.”
The old man glared.
"You want to do that snitch thing again? Good boy, this old man praised you back then and fished you out of that pile of corpses. Now, you actually changed sides and went to fight with that woman. What a vile person!”
"Yes, yes, yes. I'm a villain, I'm a villain, okay?”
He picked up the clay jar and filled the old man's wine bowl. Yun Zong then plugged the jar with a stopper.
"I can't drink anymore. Just these two bowls.”
"You…"
Bai Qi was dissatisfied, but when he saw Yun Zong clenching his fists tightly, looking as if he was about to break the jar at any moment, the old man turned his head and said childishly,
"Okay, okay, okay. Then keep this wine. We'll drink it when we return to Xianyang!”
As he spoke, he slowly took a sip of the wine in his bowl and smacked his lips.
"Then what do you plan to do, little girl? You sent the last one to the Taoist temple. Where are you going to send this one?”
"I think…"
Yun Zong paused and continued,
"Let her inherit the general's mantle."
Baiqi was stunned.
"You…"
"General, what we did was the business of licking blood on the edge of a knife. General is old and his body is not as good as before. "However, swords and sabers have no eyes on the battlefield, and I can't guarantee that I won't live to see Great Qin unify…General, don't glare at me; I'm telling the truth. Although he didn't know what was going on with the girl's background, the person who was connected to the Network was definitely not simple. And that child's mother…I promised to take care of her. The general and his aunt had no children. Although this child was a woman, she might be able to achieve great things. What do you think?"
After Yun Zong said this, Baiqi's originally happy expression gradually became a little desolate.
" Yes…Swords and swords have no eyes, swords and swords have no eyes…"
He muttered to himself with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
However, he did not immediately agree to Yun Zong's request. Instead, he asked the same question as that day,"
"Yun Zong, let me ask you, are you willing to leave the Breaking Ranks Camp?”
"…General, please don't try to persuade me."
"Ah…you child…sigh. Could it be that you also want to be a butcher whose hands are covered in blood and whose people are afraid of me and want me to die?!”
"General."
Yun Zong interrupted the old man.
"I already am."
"No, I can't! You're not! This old man's heart has long been cold, but you haven't! Yun Zong! You are still young. Back then, you would still lie under the locust tree and slack off. When you met a running child, you would still smile! You still have time!"
For some reason, Baiqi suddenly became excited. However, Yun Zong shook his head.
"General, what's the use of being alone? To the world peace, even if the hands are full of blood, what harm?”
"That's bullsh * t! If one person is uneasy, how can the world be peaceful!"
The old man finished the wine in his bowl in one gulp. Some of the wine stained his beard, but he did not wipe it off. He only looked at Yun Zong with red eyes.
"I don't want the battlefield to destroy you!”
The old man became more and more excited.
"These six countries are like buildings in the air, but their roots have long since decayed. They can't stop Great Qin's cavalry at all! No matter how brave your Breaking Ranks Battalion is, they can only win small battles, not big ones!”
"No small, no big!"
"Stop talking nonsense with me! You're already twenty years old and haven't married yet. Do you want to spend the rest of your life in the army?! Don't you want to bring your wife and children home?! This old man doesn't lack a Breaking Ranks Battalion like you, so why are you so stubborn and refusing to listen?!!”
"General, please calm down."
Seeing that Bai Qi's voice had become a few times louder, Yun Zong knew that he had drunk too much.
"You…"
Seeing how he didn't seem to care, Bai Qi suddenly felt a surge of anger. This evil fire burned more and more vigorously after smelling the blood and medicinal fragrance on the other party's body.
However, he didn't know how to convince Yun Zong, so he let out a long sigh…
"Forget it, forget it. Go back and recuperate.”
After saying that, he was a little dispirited. He stared at the residue in the bowl that had long been emptied, not even looking at Yun Zong.
Seeing this, Yun Zong nodded. After thinking for a moment, he pulled out the silk from his scabbard and placed it in front of Bai Qi's table. He clasped his hands and left.
