Seeing the clouds

Chapter 47 Chapter 46 As bold as a fight
Wei You was born in poverty, so it was not too early to join the army.Fortunately, he was honest and conscientious, and after making several small contributions to exterminating bandits, he was quickly promoted to the position of Yamen General. He was considered a young and promising person in the huge city of Chang'an.

Wei You was originally illiterate. He was born in a peasant family and had not had much interest in studying and literacy since he was a child.Until one time when enforcing the law in the city, there was a conflict with a group of second-generation ancestors who were misbehaving.Originally, this kind of thing is rare and common in today's world, but among them there is a rich lady who is articulate and not very good-looking, but her name is very hard to pronounce.When Wei You introduced Bai Ding, he couldn't even understand her, so how could he say her name fluently.

At this time, a group of second-generation ancestors took the opportunity and ridiculed Wei You for being illiterate. They called him "country guy", "earth dragon", and "blind", which is how they hurt people's self-esteem.Especially the rich girl with a hard-to-pronounce name, and her pronunciation is even more vulgar and unpleasant, and she is totally different from the rest of the ladies.

Although Wei You was born into a peasant family and was honest and kind, he was still a young man in his early twenties and could not bear this insult.But I have never studied or learned calligraphy, so I can't refute these shameless Wuling young people.But he couldn't do anything, so he had to endure these rude words silently.

Although later, with the intervention of the prefect, the matter was resolved satisfactorily, and a group of second-generation ancestors also received the lessons they deserved, but the vulgar comments made by the second-generation ancestors towards Wei You really made it difficult for Wei You to let go, so After a few days, Wei You began to study literature to avoid situations like this happening again in the future.

As a result, as soon as he held the book in his hand, Wei You deeply understood the classic saying that "the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade".The profound knowledge and stories in the book made it difficult for him to put down the book, and he could not put it down.

At this time, he was holding a copy of "Duyi Zhi" and was reading it with concentration. In fact, he had no interest in this kind of book about gods and ghosts, but who knew that this was a gift from the woman he loved.In order not to make the woman I admired sad, I looked at it just to kill time. As a result, I became more and more fascinated by it and often forgot to eat.

This situation is like your friend dragging you to eat at some weird stalls.When you got there, you discovered that the chef at the cooking stall was as fat as a pig and used more cooking oil than he had on his body.You said it was not good, but now you regretted going back on it because it would not give face to your friends and appear to be squeamish, so you had to wait for the master to serve the food with an uneasy mood.But when I finally tasted the food, I couldn't help but say "it's so fragrant".

Wei You, on the other hand, was away on official business and could not see the woman he admired, so he told the woman he admired in a dream the words "really fragrant" to express the weird, interesting and fascinating nature of the book.

And when Wei You was so engrossed in reading that he no longer knew the day and night outside, a garrison soldier ran into the barracks in a panic, interrupting Wei You's concentration.This soldier is tall, has a slightly childish face, and his panicky attitude makes him look like a new recruit who has just joined the army. It is no wonder that he is sent to do this kind of errands.

The young soldier walked up to Wei You and said in a loud voice: "Brother Wei, it's not good, it's not good..."

Wei You raised his head and looked at him, and said with some humor: "How many times have I told you to be calm when doing things, and don't always be so flustered and reckless. What happened in the military camp? Sun Fei's second generation ancestor followed him again. Did someone quarrel?"

The young soldier replied: "It's not Fei, Fei hasn't come back yet."

Wei You frowned: "What happened?"

The young soldier replied: "There is a red-haired boy who wants to see you, Brother Wei."

Wei You thought about it for a while. Although his memory was not very good, his red hair color, which can leave a profound impact upon seeing it, would not be forgotten. Therefore, he and he should not be old acquaintances, so what happened to him? Why do you want to come to the military camp to find yourself?

Wei You asked again: "Did the red-haired young man say anything else?"

The young soldier replied: "No, he just smiled and said he wanted to chat with you, Brother Wei."

The soldier's answer left Monk Wei Youzhang at a loss. He really couldn't figure out the purpose of the red-haired boy's visit: "Does that boy look normal?"

The young soldier scratched his head, frowned and recalled: "It seems quite normal. He speaks quickly and seriously, and there is nothing wrong with his attitude. Use a word to describe what it means to be kind... something like that."

Wei You "follows the good...like a stream."

The young soldier patted his head: "That's right, that's right...just do what is good."

Wei You asked again: "Besides chatting with me, did he talk about anything else?"

The young soldier shook his head: "I guess there is nothing else to say."

As soon as Wei You heard that there was nothing else to do, he stopped paying attention to the young man in red. He was probably a wild boy who came from nowhere and was missing a muscle.Although this kind of thing is rare, it still happens, at least Wei You has encountered it.

Wei You said: "Since there is nothing important, tell him that the military camp is an important place, not a place for chatting, and let him leave quickly."

The young soldier said with a bitter look on his face: "Old Lu has said this a long time ago, but it doesn't work... Xiao Zhao even fought with him for this reason."

When Wei You heard the word "action", he suddenly put down the book in his hand, his expression changed, he quickly stood up and asked: "Who made the move first?"

The young soldier replied: "Xiao Zhao."

When he heard that it was his own Pao Ze who made the first move, Wei You breathed a sigh of relief.If the unknown red-haired boy took the initiative, it would be a crime of attacking the army, and the matter would be much more troublesome.Although the red-haired boy was missing something to cause trouble in the military camp, I didn't think there was anything out of the ordinary in his behavior.If something happened to him because of this little thing, his parents who raised him would be so sad.

Thinking of this, Wei You couldn't help but think of his mother in the countryside.

Wei You's father suffered from illness in his early years and was unable to do heavy work, so the burden of the family fell on his mother's shoulders since childhood.However, the plain-looking mother did not become discouraged or give up on herself because of the heavy burden at home. Instead, she taught Wei You more carefully and patiently many principles of life and doing things, which laid a lot for Wei You's relatively smooth military career. Foundation.

In his memory, except for seeing him off when he joined the army and left the village, his strong mother never cried. Even when the family couldn't afford to eat, his mother's warm smile was still the gentlest in the day in Wei You's eyes. The sunshine, or the Big Dipper that guides the way in the sky at night.

Although I usually have someone send me letters and money back, I haven't gone back for many years.Fortunately, thanks to my grandfather, my mother knew some words, and the letter she sent back told Wei Youzhong that everything was fine.

The garrisonmen looked at the side with a sad look on their faces as they thought about returning home.After coming back to his senses, Wei You remembered that the matter at hand was still unresolved and asked again: "Xiao Zhao often strikes lightly or harshly. Is the red-haired boy not injured?"

The young soldier's slightly immature face suddenly turned into pig liver, and he hesitated to speak.

Wei Youxin said that's too bad, Xiao Zhao, a bastard, doesn't care about anything during sparring. He won't injure or cripple others, right?

"What's going on, you tell me?" Wei You was a little anxious. "Brother Wei, you said the opposite. That red-haired boy is so lively and has nothing to do with him. Xiao Zhao, on the other hand, I guess he won't be able to get out of bed in ten days and a half."

"What?!" Wei You looked shocked, "Although Xiao Zhao has not been in the army for a long time, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Although he has not become a peerless master. But with his skills, he is considered to be the best in the entire military camp, you say I can’t believe he lost.”

Wei You touched his chin and said hesitantly: "Xiao Li! It's broad daylight, are you looking for fun with Brother Wei and me?"

The young soldier had a bitter look on his face: "Brother Wei, look at my face. Even if there are flowers embroidered on it, my honest and pockmarked face doesn't look like material for lying."

Although this group of soldiers had not been in the army for a long time, they had been training with Wei You from the first day they came to the military camp.Therefore, Wei You already knew which recruit had a bad temper and which one was quick with his hands.Li Yue was the only one in the entire military camp who was stupid and couldn't tell lies. Wei You didn't doubt him, but just couldn't believe the results he described.

But the matter was done, and Wei You knew that he could not change the situation now, so he could only go back to this uninvited guest.

Wei You patted Li Yue's heavy shoulder, said only one word, and walked out of the tent. Li Yue quickly followed.

The other side of the military camp was much more lively. A red-haired boy was sitting alone on a thick branch facing a dozen soldiers, his legs swinging freely, contentedly.

The red-haired boy has a lean body, and his limbs appear to be slightly longer than ordinary people. If he added two more touches of red to his face, coupled with his strange head-scratching posture, he would really look like a red-haired monkey.

The soldiers inside the military camp gate were also talking about him endlessly.Although this red-haired boy behaves strangely, it is obvious to all that he has a good attitude when talking to the big guys. But if you really want to say that you have a good impression, you can't talk about it. After all, he did hurt his robe, even if It can be said that Xiao Zhao was the one responsible for this matter, but everyone in the army knows how to protect others.

At this time, Wei You was leading Li Yue to the entrance of the military camp. Everyone saw the figure of their boss, and the chatter gradually stopped. Everyone began to consider and adjust the array in unison. This was obviously the result of regular training on weekdays.

The red-haired boy on the tree not far away saw the situation at the entrance of the military camp and guessed what was going on.The young man held up his hands and fell from the branch. His lean figure was like a light cloud, and he walked to the entrance of the military camp.

Wei You was walking through the neat array towards the entrance of the military camp, and finally stopped less than three feet in front of the red-haired boy.

The red-haired boy is not short in stature, but compared with Wei Youxian, he is still slightly shorter.So the young man raised his head, Wei You lowered his head, and their eyes met.

Although Wei You is usually gentle in dealing with people and things, due to his many years of military experience and his relatively tall stature, he can feel oppressive when he is serious.But the reaction of the red-haired boy was beyond Wei You's expectation. The boy did not avoid Wei You's gaze at all. Instead, he smiled slightly, with a calm expression on his face.

The two were in a stalemate for about five breaths, but Wei You couldn't hold his breath and spoke first: "General Wei You is the leader here. I wonder what the purpose of this young hero is in this important place of the military camp?"

The red-haired boy smiled and said: "It's nothing. I just heard that General Wei is heroic and I admire him very much, so I came here to see him and chat with General Wei."

When Wei You heard that this young man seemed to have nothing important to do, he cursed in his heart, "I don't know what to say," and said, "Then what does the young hero want to talk to me about?"

The red-haired boy raised his left eyebrow and said with a smile, "Is it fun to be a soldier?"

Is being a soldier fun?
Wei You was stunned after hearing this.This young man who disrupted the order of the military camp and wasted his own time actually asked such a childish and ridiculous question, as if he was insulting himself, and he suddenly became angry.But with so many people present, it was hard for him to get angry, so he could only suppress his anger, turn around and leave.

When the red-haired boy saw Wei You being silent and turning around to leave, he became a little flustered. He stepped forward with his left foot, stretched out his right hand and grabbed Wei You's right arm, and said, "General Wei, don't leave in a hurry. , is it okay to chat with me for a while?"

Wei You pulled his right arm and found that he couldn't break free from the boy, feeling a little surprised.Although his strength is not one of the best in the military camp, he can definitely be said to be among the best, and the lean red-haired boy behind him has a childish face, and he is obviously not yet old enough to be weak, so how can he have such great strength.

Although he was secretly amazed in his heart, Wei You's expression remained unchanged: "I have nothing to talk about with you. Considering that you are still young, I won't argue with you. I hope, little brother, you can know how to advance and retreat. Don't worry about it anymore." Disturbing the discipline of the military camp, otherwise..."

When the red-haired boy heard this, his face was filled with incomprehensible joy. He interrupted Wei You and said, "What if you don't want to teach me a lesson?"

Wei You was stunned again after hearing the young man's words. Not only was he not timid about causing trouble in the military camp, but his expression seemed to be full of joy?It's so unusual.

Wei You immediately had the answer in his mind: This red-haired boy was either the second-generation ancestor of some family who was confident here, or there was something really wrong with his brain.

But...it's not like that.

Wei You was unsure, but he had neither the time nor the interest to argue with this young boy.Anyway, no matter if he is a second-generation ancestor or a stupid young man, what can he do?
Wei You jerked his hand away and strode towards the camp. He stretched out his hand to signal the robes to stop the red-haired boy. He could no longer hear the shouts behind him and only thought about the unfinished story in "Duyi Zhi" in the camp. .

But before Wei You took a few steps, a figure flew from behind him and hit him hard in front of him.

And this thick figure and young face are obviously the new recruit Li Yue.

For a moment, an ominous premonition emerged from Wei You's heart.

He turned around suddenly and found that the red-haired boy was fighting with many robes.

Suddenly, he remembered the sentence in "Duyi Zhi" "Since the Han general Jiang Wei was dead, he disemboweled him and regarded his courage as fighting."

And the red-haired boy in the distance seems to be... okay?
