"I..." Geng Shu moved his lips and took a step towards Jiang Heng.
Jiang Heng was trembling, and kept backing away, subconsciously trying to avoid him.
"Heng'er!" Geng Shu said, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Heng finally started to cry, his shoulders twitched, Geng Shu chased after him, pulling on his sleeve, trying to pull him into his arms. Jiang Heng struggled out, showing fearful eyes, and stumbled away a little.
Geng Shu: "Heng'er... brother!"
Jiang Heng cried and cried, and when he heard the name, he gradually stopped. Geng Shu sighed and said, "I'm in a hurry, it's my brother's fault, let me see?"
Jiang Heng still wanted to hide, but Geng Shu couldn't help but drag him over and hold him in his arms. The meat and eggs he bought fell to the ground. The two children were dumbfounded, just holding him in the smoke .
"The food... the food fell off!" Jiang Heng wiped his tears and quickly reminded Geng Shu, but Geng Shu ignored the things all over the floor.
In the end, Geng Shu kissed Jiang Heng's forehead, Jiang Heng finally broke free, roughly understood what Geng Shu meant to apologize, wiped away his tears, squatted on the ground and picked up something, Geng Shu stared blankly for a while, and said : "Don't pick it up, it's all dirty."
The egg was broken, but the meat was still edible. Geng Shu held a little bacon that he finally bought in one hand, and held Jiang Heng tightly in the other hand to go home.
"When will mother come back?" Jiang Heng Shaoqing recovered a little and asked anxiously, "Is there a dead person outside?"
Geng Shu was asked several times by Jiang Heng before he regained his senses, and replied, "I didn't leave the city, I don't know." Immediately, he realized something and changed his words: "No dead people, just the house burned down."
When there was war in the city, there were many thugs who murdered, set fire, and committed crimes. Geng Shu saved a few people along the way, but he couldn't control too much. He also thought about Jiang Heng at home, so he came back in a hurry.
But he didn't say anything to Jiang Heng, turned away and said, "Let's cook the bacon and rice together later..."
Halfway through the conversation, when they reached the door of the house, the two suddenly became silent at the same time.
Geng Shu was about to take Jiang Heng to climb the wall to go home, but he saw that the gate of Jiang's house was open, and the left door was half-open.
"Mother!" Jiang Heng immediately shouted, "Mother Wei!"
"Don't go!" Geng Shu caught a glimpse of the broken copper lock, and immediately pulled Jiang Heng behind him.
Jiang Heng: "???"
The man's laughter came from the house, Geng Shu took a stride and rushed in. When Jiang Heng caught up to see it, he was instantly dumbfounded.
The inside of the Jiang family's mansion was in a mess, and all valuables and things were turned out. The courtyard was covered with curtains, silverware, money, Mrs. Zhao's jewelry, Jiang Heng's inkstones, furs, silk, silk, bronze mirrors, Even the candlesticks in the wife's room were thrown on the curtain.
A scooter was parked on the side.
Of the three men, one of them tried his best to carry Geng Yuan's black sword and swiped it around a few times. He was taken a little bit unsteadily, and the other two were trying to roll up the Jiang family and throw them on the trolley.
"There are thieves!"
Jiang Heng was no longer familiar with the world, and he knew that the family was a thief. His first thought was to go out and report to the officials immediately.
Seeing this scene, Geng Shu immediately got angry, put down his things, and let Jiang Heng stand aside.
"Don't come forward," Geng Shu said in a deep voice, "No matter what happens, don't come forward."
The three were still laughing and laughing, and turned to look at Jiang Heng and Geng Shu.
"Where's your mother?" The local ruffian at the head recognized Jiang Heng and said, "Quickly call her back, go, this is a mess, your family doesn't even have a man, let her go with the grandfathers."
Geng Shu was trembling with anger, he just walked forward slowly, Jiang Heng stepped back half a step, opened his mouth, and said, "Brother."
"Yo?"
The three looked at each other, and one said, "Are there any survivors in the Jiang family?"
"I haven't seen it." Another said with a smile, "Could it be that this kid wants to fight with us?"
The three of them laughed again, and the two who packed their bags didn't even look at Geng Shu. The one in the lead held the sword in his left hand and pressed Geng Shu's shoulder with his right hand, trying to push him out.
Immediately afterwards, Geng Shu grabbed the man's wrist with one hand, dragged him towards him, put his left hand under his right arm, held his body and pushed him, and then pushed him hard!
In an instant, the local ruffian let out a scream that was beyond the reach of ordinary people, accompanied by the sound of his arm being severely broken by Geng Shu!
Jiang Heng jumped in shock and shouted, "Brother!"
The other two got up immediately, not realizing what had happened, they just rushed towards Geng Shu together, but Geng Shu had already grabbed the black sword, turned and swept away, the sword body hit one of them, making a muffled sound of flesh and iron colliding, The man spewed blood in the air and fell to the ground.
In the end, the man was startled, and immediately knew that the child in front of him was not something he could provoke. He didn't know whether he stepped forward to check the injury of his companion or turned and ran away. In this short moment, Geng Shu flew forward again and struck the last man's chest with a sword. , The man immediately broke his ribs, shouted wildly, fell to the ground, and kept coughing.
In the blink of an eye, Geng Shu settled the three in front of Jiang Heng, and with another swing of his sword, Jiang Heng retreated subconsciously and closed his eyes. Geng Shu heard the sound of inhalation coming from behind, turned his head and saw that Jiang Heng was frightened, and the sword could not be cut with a single thought.
Geng Shu's first murder was on the day his mother hanged himself after his father, Geng Yuan, died. When King Liang died, Anyang City was in chaos, and a neighbor butcher had already attacked Geng Shu's mother's idea and came to defile her body after her death.
That day, Geng Shu turned into a wild beast and slashed the butcher more than ten times, until he was covered in blood. Along the way, he had also killed homeless people and robbery bandits. He clearly knew that killing was to see Blood, there is a lot of blood in the human body, more than imagined, when someone cuts off someone's head, the blood will spray everywhere.
He will never forget the day he killed the first person, thinking that today's sword cut, Jiang Heng will be like himself, unforgettable for the rest of his life.
"roll!"
In the end, Geng Shu didn't want to see Jiang Heng's frightened eyes, so he let them go with a single thought.
Jiang Heng gasped violently and looked at Geng Shu, until the three local ruffians limped away from Jiang's house, and Jiang Heng walked up slowly.
When Geng Shu was about to turn around to close the door, Jiang Heng suddenly hugged his waist from behind and leaned his head on his back.
The two brothers stood silently for a while, and Jiang Heng suddenly said, "Fortunately, you can use the sword, I was scared to death."
Geng Shu said, "It's alright, don't be afraid."
Jiang Heng suffered too many shocks this afternoon, but he quickly regained his composure. For him, the three thieves who broke through the door were not as scary as the slap that Geng Shu slapped him.
Geng Shu walked outside the door and tried to re-lock the door with the broken copper lock.
Jiang Heng dragged the things he found out into the main room again.
Geng Shu knocked on the copper lock a few times, twisted Duan Tiezhen, and reluctantly locked the door again. After entering the room, he sat down on the case, slightly stretched his legs, and looked at Jiang Heng busy with an indifferent face.
Jiang Heng counted the things in the house, walked around, and restored the valuable furnishings. Geng Shu just didn't speak, and finally said: "Don't mess with it, just leave it alone."
"Mother will ask when she comes back." Jiang Heng said.
Jiang Heng was afraid that his mother would find out.
"It's just that I'm afraid that they won't come back, so I pack my belongings and want to take you away." Geng Shu said casually, "Come here, Heng'er."
Geng Shu suddenly changed his name, which made Jiang Heng feel a little weird. In fact, even when Geng Shu said the word "Heng'er", it was a little unnatural—
They get along day and night, one speaks to the other, and it is natural to know that the other is calling him without addressing them. Jiang Heng would occasionally call Geng Shu "brother", but when Geng Shu wanted to find Jiang Heng, he just called "people", and Jiang Heng naturally came over.
"Here, you are wearing this." Geng Shu untied the jade on his neck and handed it to Jiang Heng.
Jiang Heng just didn't answer, and Geng Shu said, "Be obedient, it can keep you safe."
"You won't leave," Jiang Heng hesitated, "Why give it to me?"
Geng Shu said impatiently: "If you want to wear it, you can wear it, I won't leave."
Geng Shu pondered for an afternoon, for fear that Jiang Heng would make another incident on the street outside. He only went out for two hours, and both of them were frightened enough. From now on, he must keep an eye on him. Mother said that if this jade can protect her life, it is safer to put it on Jiang Heng.
When Jiang Heng heard that he couldn't leave, he took it over. Geng Shu patted the ashes on his knees and body, as if a major event in his life had occurred, and said, "I'm going to cook."
At night, Geng Shu cooked a pot of bacon and rice, and from time to time, he probed and heard that Jiang Heng was sitting in the study and playing the piano after packing his things.
The city gradually quieted down, and the world outside was completely silent. Whether it was dead silence or serenity lurking in it, they could not tell.
After a while, it started to snow again, and the two children devoured a whole pot of rice. Jiang Heng touched his stomach and finally ended the state of being half hungry and half full these days.
"It's so cold." Jiang Heng raised a new life dilemma.
Geng Shu said, "Let's build a brazier for you."
Jiang Heng said: "You need to save some firewood. Today is a big cold. The birds are ill and the water is strong."
"Well," Geng Shu said, "It's almost the Chinese New Year, so it's fine. I'll go out and look for it tomorrow."
Geng Shu packed the tableware and chopsticks, and his hands were red from the cold after washing. He didn't hear Jiang Heng's voice for a long time. When he came out, he saw that Jiang Heng had already entered Granny Wei's room and moved his quilt to his own room.
Geng Shu didn't say anything. No one knocked on the watch this night, and I didn't know what time it was. The pool in the garden froze. Jiang Heng, wrapped in a quilt, looked at Geng Yuan's black sword under the oil lamp.
"Sleep." Geng Shu only said, put out the oil lamp, took off his coat and went to bed.
"Is it cold?" Geng Shu asked in the dark.
Jiang Heng turned over and said, "It's a little cold."
Geng Shu folded the two quilts together and hugged Jiang Heng into his arms. The two young boys were wearing single clothes. Geng Shu's body temperature immediately warmed Jiang Heng a lot.
"What about now?" Geng Shu asked again.
Jiang Heng rested on Geng Shu's arm and put his legs on his waist, feeling a lot more comfortable, and said, "It's not cold anymore."
Geng Shu stretched out his hand, slightly unbuttoned Jiang Heng's shirt collar, revealing the jade, and touched it with his fingers. Jiang Heng was about to fall asleep, raised his eyes hard, and said, "Wear it for you."
Geng Shu gathered up Jiang Heng's single shirt and said casually, "You wear it, don't lose it." Then he tightened his arms, put his arms around his shoulders, and closed his eyes.
Jiang Heng took a few puffs in his sleep. After all, he had experienced such a thrilling adventure during the day, while Geng Shu was fast asleep. Before I knew it, I felt that the snow had stopped, and the winter nights gradually became warmer again, just like spring flowers blooming.
Geng Shu opened his eyes, while Jiang Heng moved uncomfortably, broke away from his embrace, and wanted to kick the quilt away.
Geng Shu: "!!!"
"Get up!" Geng Shu said anxiously, "Wake up! Brother! Heng'er!"
With sleepy eyes, Jiang Heng was woken up by Geng Shu. He saw a bright light all around, red light and shadows outside, and he still didn't understand what was going on.
"The water is gone!" Geng Shu immediately turned over to stay, grabbed the black sword, kicked the door open, and smoke rolled in from the fire outside.
Jiang Heng suddenly shouted, and hurriedly went to the ground, shouting, "We didn't build a brazier!"
Geng Shu grabbed the quilt and beat him around. The room was full of thick smoke, Jiang Heng couldn't see, his eyes were so smoked that tears were coming from his eyes, he coughed violently, and looked for clothes everywhere.
"Don't worry about your clothes!" Geng Shu shouted, "Cover your nose and mouth... Cough! Cough!"
Geng Shu was choked and coughed wildly. There were flames all around. There was a fire in the house in winter. The fire engulfed the entire Jiang family in an instant due to the strong wind. At this time, Jiang Heng was anxious, pushed open the rear window, and shouted, "Brother... cough!"
Geng Shu wanted to put out the fire, but the fire was too big, so he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Jiang Heng's waist, gritted his teeth and said, "Hold me tight!"
The two rushed out from the back window, Geng Shu was dizzy, and no matter how high his martial arts skills were, he faced the thick smoke, and he was dizzy even if he inhaled.
There was a loud noise behind him, and I don't know what collapsed. When Geng Shu was secretly saying that he was not good, Jiang Heng pushed him hard from the side, and he was pressed down by the window lattice and wooden pillars that collapsed out of the room.
"Heng'er!" Geng Shu roared.
"Leave me alone!" Jiang Heng held back tears in the fire and shouted with all his strength, "Run!"
Geng Shu shouted wildly like a beast, and with a cough after inhaling a lot of smoke, he bent and groped around. Jiang Heng was pinned down on his lower back, and the red-hot wooden pillar scorched his waist, giving off a pungent smell of burnt flesh, but now he couldn't feel the pain, so he couldn't help shouting: "Go away! go!"

Geng Shu finally touched Jiang Heng's hand and realized that if this continued, both of them would be burned to death. He immediately held his breath and used the black sword to move the wooden pillar.
Jiang Heng: "I... I... "
"Don't talk! Climb out!" Geng Shu shouted, and then slammed down with all the strength in his life.
Jiang Heng cried out in pain, desperately trying to get out of the broken wood, Geng Shu immediately grabbed Jiang Heng, put his arm on his shoulder, and stumbled away from Jiang's house.
