Chapter 422 The Past Is Like Smoke 】

"I don't drink." Zhao Pingtian said.

"I'll drink it." Ye Xiao said: "Meeting is fate, and we must celebrate with wine; besides, listening to Brother Zhao's story without drinking, I always feel that something is missing, and it is inevitable."

Zhao Pingtian was stunned when he heard the words, and then he said after a while, "That's not bad, so I'll drink it too."

Immediately, he picked up a jar of wine, raised his head, and gurgled... unexpectedly, half of the jar of wine went down in the blink of an eye.

Ye Xiao's eyebrows twitched wildly, crap, this is also called not drinking, if this is also called not drinking, there are not many people who drink in this world.

Zhao Pingtian put down the wine jar after binge drinking, looked at Ye Xiao with fixed eyes, and said, "Feng Junzuo, let me ask you, can you really see Rou'er, my Rou'er?"

Ye Xiao couldn't help but cast his yin and yang eyes again, and looked around him.

I saw the girl with a gentle aura, still in that cloud of gray fog, looking at herself with some expectation.

"I don't know if she is your Rou'er, but I did see a pretty girl with a cinnabar mole between her eyebrows, and she is by your side now." Ye Xiao nodded affirmatively.

Zhao Pingtian looked up to the sky and smiled: "Really? Rou'er, have you been by my side all the time? I don't know it all the time, God treats me well!"

Hearing the words, the girl in the gray mist sighed softly and stared at him with tearful eyes.

Ye Xiao said: "Brother Zhao, dare to ask what's going on? I believe that after knowing the whole story, I can give you...you more assistance!"

Zhao Pingtian was obviously very emotional, grabbed the wine jar and took another two sips, said: "Even if you don't ask about this matter, I will still say, you... hey... this is really a regret in my life... for a while, I don't know where to start..."

He sighed deeply, and his eyes became clouded; it seemed that at this moment, he had returned to the long past, to the unforgettable past...

...

"Rou'er, she is my fiancée..." Zhao Pingtian took a long breath, his eyes became extremely gentle.

"At that time, I was a granary student. I only knew how to read and write every day. I hoped that one day, I would be named on the gold list... and Rou'er was a girl from the village next to my house. We were two childhood sweethearts when we were young. The two adults saw us together. We hit it off, so we arranged a marriage for us..."

"By the time I turned eighteen and Rou'er was seventeen, we had already started preparing for marriage..." Zhao Pingtian smiled bitterly, deep in his eyes, there was a heartbroken tenderness: "...we are rural children , not so particular, when I was young, I played together every day; when I was fourteen or five years old, everyone became sensible, and occasionally reserved a bit, but then played together again, without any grievances... and I didn't feel anything wrong OK..."

"The two of us have always been very good, our hearts are as one, Rou'er is at home, and we have already made a wedding dress..."

"However, for a while, I went to the small river in the neighboring village... that was the place where Rou'er and I dated in private. We would deliberately avoid other people and meet alone there, but during that time, I went to For more than ten days, Rou'er didn't go, this is something that has never happened before..."

"At first, I thought it was because the marriage date was approaching. My daughter's family was reserved and avoided seeing each other for the time being. I tried my best to hold back my temper. After a few days, I finally couldn't bear the desire to see Rou'er anymore, so I went to my father-in-law with the cheek At home, I think everyone will get married soon, even if she doesn't let me see, I can take a sneak peek at her..."

Zhao Pingtian sighed sadly, staring blankly ahead.

I was silent for a while.

Ye Xiao didn't rush, poured himself a drink, and sighed in his heart after two glasses of wine; I'm afraid, the turning point of the story is this meeting, right?

He looked up at the girl in the gray mist, who was staring at Zhao Pingtian with eyes full of sorrow and love, her gaze never blinking.

"On that day... I met Rou'er as I wished. Rou'er was smiling all over her face, happily holding hands with a young son; her expression was very intimate, and she was with me and had never seen him before. The intimacy and joy... When she saw me, Rou'er's face instantly turned pale..."

"You should be able to understand how I felt at the time, I..." Zhao Pingtian lowered his head in pain: "...At that time, I stepped forward to question in anger, asking who is that man? What's your relationship?"

"Rou'er looked at me indifferently at the time, and said that she had always regarded me as an older brother, not...not as a lover, and, and..." Zhao Pingtian said: "At that time, Rou'er said, Together, there is no sense of security. She didn't know what the person she really liked was like until this person came. I... I am just a passer-by in her life, a person who has no destiny! "

"What she really likes is the strong, the unrivaled heroes... She said, in troubled times, what's the use of reading only? If there is a fight, should you use books to fight with others? A scholar who doesn't work hard is just The purest weak!"

"She repeatedly emphasized that what a woman needs most is a sense of security, and the man next to him has the strength of the peak of the human realm... But I am just a poor boy who not only has no money, but also no strength, and I am even proud of it." Literary talent is nothing more than a dry student, not even a scholar..."

"All in all, it's just that if you can't make it, you can't make it, you have no future, and you can't see the future at all."

"She said, Brother Tian, ​​I won't make things difficult for you; if you are a master of martial arts, then it doesn't matter if you marry; but...the problem is that you are not..."

"She said, if you're not a master, it's okay if you have money, and money can pass through your mind; if you don't have money, it's okay if you have a future, and if you have a future, you have a future. Even if you have neither money nor future, it's okay if you have strength. But now you have nothing, how can I follow you? Dare to follow you? Really follow you, to drink the northwest wind? Even if there is love, it is difficult to drink enough water, let alone ruthless!"

When Zhao Pingtian said this, he was a little self-deprecating and a little sentimental, but there was no anger like being looked down upon by his sweetheart.

Ye Xiao was not surprised when he saw this situation. Considering the situation of these two people, it would be really weird if there was nothing strange about them!

"I was desperate at that time, so I asked her, is she really determined to go with that man? Is everything in the past like a cloud?"

Zhao Pingtian smiled bitterly: "Rou'er said...the man next to her has three years to go down the mountain, and three years later, it will be the day when they get married...She said, Brother Tian, ​​if you are in three years, you can If you defeat him, I will still marry you."
