Incandescent lightning tore through the night sky, the sky and the earth suddenly brightened, and then fell into deeper darkness. The ear-splitting thunder made a loud noise, as if a huge iron tool in the sky was cracked by the thunder god's hammer, and the long wind howled,
The surging clouds seem to be close to the earth——
Sixteen-year-old Ran Sheng ran eastward along the north bank of Gushu River where he was used to walking. He knew his life experience and believed what Uncle Jing said. Uncle Jing told him this solemnly and could not be deceiving.
He, he was a late talker and didn't learn to speak until he was six years old. But when he was young, he still remembered the experience of Uncle Jing carrying him on his back to flee. There were so many people fleeing from north to south, and some of them had hundreds of people traveling south.
, there were many families, including brothers, sisters, parents and children. He and Uncle Jing were the only two people who fled. Because he couldn't speak clearly, he couldn't ask Uncle Jing about the past, and he didn't understand why he was so well-dressed and well-fed.
Suddenly he had to run for his life day and night, and after several years of wandering around and suffering a lot of hardships, he had forgotten the experience of fleeing. Uncle Jing vaguely said that his parents and relatives were all dead——
Since settling down in Chenjiawu at the age of twelve, Ran Sheng has experienced the warmth of home. Chen's mother, Mrs. Li, is very loving, and the young man is very kind to him. Mrs. Chen in Xilou does not treat him as a human being, and his status is a bit similar.
Chen's disciples both liked and awed Miss Run'er. He felt that Miss Run'er was too beautiful and too smart for him to be worthy of. He was still ignorant and had not yet thought about marrying a wife and having children.
, my thoughts were very vague, and I didn’t pay much attention to it. My days passed happily and easily——
But what Uncle Jing said to him tonight was like a mountain weighing on his head. A few years ago in Jiangbei, Uncle Jing took him to work with the refugees. He had also heard about the deeds of King Ran Min of Wei. Those refugees
There are mixed opinions about Ran Min. Of course, some people admire him, but there are also people who hate Ran Min very much. They think that Ran Min's bellicosity has ruined their family. Uncle Jing will be very angry when he hears this. He often steps forward and kicks the man.
He kicked someone over and pulled him away quickly. At that time, he felt interesting and strange. He asked Uncle Jing why he kicked that person? Uncle Jing said that the person was disrespectful to King Ran. People named Ran in the world are all good people and cannot be abused.
People slander——
Ran Sheng never expected that Ran Min was actually his father. His parents and relatives who had no memory of him suddenly became clear. They were all killed by the Murong family. This shocked him incomparably. He suffered huge injuries.
The pain was heartbreaking, and he ran all the way, turning a deaf ear to the rumbling thunder. Suddenly, in the dark night, he bumped into a tree. The pain was unbearable. He roared, his eyes were red, and he slammed his arms, and hit the tree.
A willow tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl was smashed into pieces, but he still couldn't understand his anger. He picked up the several-foot-long tree trunk and swept it from side to side. However, he heard a constant "clicking" sound, and a large area of the willow forest on the bank of the stream was swept away by him——
Amidst the lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured down, and the majestic and tall Ran Sheng danced on the willow trunks and ran rampant, with a strong murderous intention surging in his chest, just thinking about putting an end to all this.
Chen Caozhi and Jing Nu had arrived at this time. Jing Nu saw Ran Sheng's crazy look and wanted to come forward to persuade him, but Chen Caozhi stopped him. The two of them watched Ran Sheng flatten the willow forest in the heavy rain.
This is where Chen Caozhi and Ran Sheng swam in the evening.
Ran Sheng ran ten miles to get here, and broke down more than a hundred willow trees. He was exhausted, and his body was swaying. A flash of lightning flashed across. He saw Cao Zhixiao Langjun and Uncle Jing not far away, and couldn't help but scream.
: "Little Langjun——Uncle Jing——" He knelt on the ground with a plop.
Chen Caozhi was also soaked, so he came over and said, "Xiao Sheng, come back with me." After that, he turned around and left.
The heavy rain continued, and it was dim. Chen Caozhi's moon-white gauze shirt showed a faint white shadow in the rainy night. Ran Sheng followed the white shadow all the way back and approached the south gate of Gushu City. The rain gradually lightened up.
Bai Ying stopped, and Chen Caozhi said in a calm voice: "Xiao Sheng, when you grow up from now on, you have to follow me back to the city as if nothing has happened. Keep your old grudges buried in your heart, and don't think about revenge. The Murong clan is likely to be destroyed.
At that time, but now, it is not something you can handle alone. Uncle Jing rescued you ten years ago because he wanted to keep the Ran family’s flesh and blood and for you to live well. Now that you have grown up, if you think recklessly
If you want to take revenge and die needlessly, how can you deal with your parents and relatives who are in trouble!"
Jing Nu led the horse over and said, "Young Master is right. He is the smartest man in the world. My lord must listen to your good advice."
Chen Cao said: "Uncle Jing, it's better to call him Xiao Sheng."
Jing Nu hurriedly said: "Yes, yes."
Ran Sheng let the rain drip down his face and remained silent for a long while, then said in a hoarse voice: "Young Master, I want to join the army, and I want to be a corps commander."
Chen Cao said: "Okay, I will take you to see the marching Sima tomorrow. You will start from the lower ranks of the military and work your way up step by step, just like I started from a poor family. I am a civil servant and you are a military officer."
Ran Sheng straightened his body and said loudly: "Yes."
Chen Caozhi said to Jing Nu: "Xiao Sheng's identity is special and must not be revealed. He is not well-known now. In the future, he will become famous in the army. And he is so majestic. Some people will inevitably think of King Ran Wei. This pair of Xiao Sheng
Sheng is extremely unfavorable——"
Jing Nu admired Chen Caozhi extremely and knew that Chen Caozhi really cared about Ran Sheng, so he asked, "What should the young man do?"
Chen Cao said: "I thought Xiao Sheng had to change his surname to Chen and call him Chen Yu. From then on, he would be worthy of my brother."
Jing Nu was dumbfounded. Thinking about it carefully, Chen Caozhi was right. Ran Sheng's identity could not be revealed. Moreover, the Chen family of Qiantang was now a noble family, and Chen Caozhi was a talented person from Jiangzuo. It was right to consider Ran Sheng, who was born as a refugee, as his younger brother.
Ran Sheng's kindness immediately looked at Ran Sheng: "Xiao Sheng——"
Ran Sheng was also stunned and said hesitantly: "Young Master is my elder brother?"
Chen Caozhi smiled and said, "Xiao Sheng doesn't want to?"
Ran Sheng fell to the ground and cried out with tears in his eyes: "Brother——"
Chen Cao said: "Okay, from now on, your name is Chen Yu, and your courtesy name is Zi Sheng, which also comes from my Yingchuan family, Chen, and is my distant younger brother."
Chen Caozhi, Ran Sheng, and Jing Nu returned to their residence at the foot of Fenghuang Mountain. Xiaochan, Laide and others were all very anxious. They were relieved when they saw that the three of them had returned safely. Xiaochan quickly prepared water for the three of them to bathe with their servants, and ordered them to take a bath.
The cook cooked brown sugar and ginger soup to help the three of them get rid of the cold. Even though it was midsummer, they still felt cold after being rained on for so long.
Ran Sheng had many bruises on his head and face, his clothes were in tatters, and his arms were red and swollen. Chen Cao ordered Zuo Lang to find the medicine for bruises and bruises that the army always prepared to treat Ran Sheng's injuries. He also told Xiaochan and others that Ran Sheng was his distant relative.
Brother, Jing Nu only learned about it recently.
Xiaochan, Lai Zhen, Lai De and others were all surprised, but since Xiao Langjun Cao Zhi said so, they believed it and all came to congratulate Xiao Langjun and Xiao Sheng.
It was only then that Laizhen sent Lu Weirui's letter. He was so busy talking about Chenjiawu that he forgot to submit the letter written by Miss Lu to the young man.
Chen Caozhi looked at Lu Weirui's letters. A stack of fine jute paper and a small slip in the style of "Huashan Monument" turned out to be a diary written by Lu Weirui. Lu Weirui had written down something he thought was interesting every day since April 16th.
Chen Langjun is also interested in something, and she wants to show it to Chen Langjun one day, because she has not seen Chen Langjun since Gu Kaizhi married Zhang Tongyun, and her second uncle was very strict, so Chen Langjun went there again
Girl, it’s hard to meet each other, but I miss you so much——
Chen Caozhi had been in a state of ups and downs because of Ran Sheng's incident before, but now he was reading Wei Rui's diary one by one, with a smile in his eyes and a calm mind.
The next day, Chen Caozhi went to see Xie Xuan and told him that Ran Sheng was his distant younger brother. Xie Xuan was greatly surprised, but did not doubt him, so he and Chen Caozhi immediately led Ran Sheng to see the marching Sima
, Huan Wen had long ago said that he would give Ran Sheng the post of Army Commander, and Marching Sima immediately registered Ran Sheng as a military official. The registered name was Chen Yu, with the courtesy name Zi Sheng, and he was under the command of Ningyuan General Huan Shiqian.
Huan Shiqian was the son of Huan Wen's younger brother Huan Huo. He had a small character and was capable of suppressing evil. He was extremely brave and agile. Six years ago, he followed his uncle Huan Wen on his second Northern Expedition. Huan Chong was besieged by Fu Jian's army and was unable to break out. Huan Shi Qian jumped out of the siege.
He rushed to rescue his uncle Huan and rushed back among tens of thousands of enemy troops. No one dared to resist. The three armies sighed and intimidated the enemy. At that time, there were children in Guanzhong who were suffering from malaria. They called him "Huan Shi Qian has come" to scare him.
, the sick will recover more often.
After registering their military status and receiving their waist badges, Xie Xuan, Chen Caozhi and Marching Sima took Ran Sheng to see Ningyuan General Huan Shiqian. Huan Shiqian had just come from Jingzhou recently. I heard that the corps commander Chen Yu was newly famous.
The disciple of Chen Yu, who was extremely prosperous and so powerful, immediately asked a tooth soldier under the tent who was about seven feet and five inches to fight with Ran Sheng's horns——
Although Ran Sheng has never learned the art of horn fighting, his victory lies in his great strength. He can defeat ten warriors with one force. Before the tooth soldier could get close, Ran Sheng grabbed him by the chest. With all his strength, he lifted the tooth soldier.
The soldier lifted his feet off the ground and threw him out with a slap.
