Three hundred and fiftieth chapters [the far back](2/3)

What bothered Du Wei was that all drugs had lost their effect on old Raymond, but this ice berry still had an effect... It was just that the pure analgesic anesthetic drug could only relieve his father's pain, and it was not effective for him.

It has no effect at all on the disease.

In the days that followed, Du Wei finished all his work, but did not leave as planned. He stayed at home and began to guard his father's bedside all day long. Although his mother secretly shed tears every day, Gabri was still like his.

They are the same age and a little panicked, but at this time, Du Wei showed the temperament of being the pillar of the family. He calmly comforted his sad mother and took care of his panicked brother...

What no one knew was that the young Duke sat in front of his father's bed every night, frowning. For many days in a row, he did not sleep for a minute, and did not even meditate. All his time,

They all stayed by his father's side. Even when old Raymond fell asleep, he stared at his father with eyes full of affection.

Maybe... take one look, just one less look.

In order to save his father, Du Wei even took out the "Fountain of Youth", hoping to use this magical spring water that was said to be able to heal any injury to save his father's life... But in the end, he was disappointed again.

Obviously, my father's illness had nothing to do with his injuries, but an old man who finally exhausted his vitality!

Du Wei has never been so depressed. He has always been successful in everything he does and is almost always unfavorable. But when faced with his dying father, all his methods have failed. Although he is a magician, he can "create"

"Miracle" man, but after all, he is not a god! He is a human being!!

He once hid in his study and read through all the books he could find, trying to find any way to rejuvenate people's vitality. But where could such a way be found in books?

Old Raymond seemed to understand that his body was hopeless. As long as he woke up, he endured the pain, still had a forced smile on his face, and talked to his son in front of the bed.

At the beginning, old Raymond would ask Du Wei some military and political affairs in the family, and then he would use his own experience to give his son some valuable advice. But as his illness became serious, old Raymond seemed to have more and more questions about the family.

I no longer care about family affairs.

All his concern was placed on Du Wei. The content of the father-son chat no longer involved any official business. Old Raymond would ask Du Wei to talk about some interesting things about his time in the Northwest, such as three months.

Building a city, having a great food harvest, and those dangerous things, such as the Northwestern Army's siege in Loulan City, the bloody battle in Gilliat City, etc... Moreover, old Raymond was just like a father. Listening to his son's glorious achievements outside

He just listens quietly and does not express his own opinions. When he hears the wonderful things, his face will be filled with a proud smile.

In order to make his father happy, Du Wei tried his best to describe these things as wonderfully as possible. After talking about the events in the Northwest, he also talked about his experiences when he was exiled back to the Luolin Plain, such as making footballs and hot air balloons.

Then the wonderful adventure in the frozen forest...and so on.

Of course, in order not to worry his father, Du Wei hid everything about the Dragon Clan, Hussein, the guilty people, and Semel.

Finally, in the middle of the second month after Du Wei returned to Luolin Plain...

On this day, Du Wei gave his father some ice berries... Although he was still smiling and comforting his father, mother and younger brother, his heart kept sinking.

He has been responsible for his father's medication, and he knows very well that in recent days, his father's demand for ice berries has become greater and greater, and the effect of ice berries on his father's body has gradually lost its magic. In the past, only a small child

A little bit can save my father from pain, but now, my father's medication has increased several times, but the pain is still unavoidable.

That afternoon, old Raymond refused to eat ice berries. He expressed that he wanted to be sober: "Eating this will make me unable to concentrate. I want to listen to you, son, and I don't want to miss every word."

Du Wei felt that a stream of heat was about to flow out of his eyes. He quickly turned around and wiped it away. Then he silently picked up a glass of water and supported his father to take a few sips.

"So, father, what do you want to hear today?" Although he was hurt in his heart, Du Wei still had a smile on his face: "How about I talk about things in Nanyang. I have blackmailed those Nanyang people miserably."

Old Raymond shook his head weakly: "Nanyang... I have been in Nanyang for many years, and I don't want to hear about Nanyang's affairs."

He raised his skinny hand, gently touched his son's face, and then said slowly: "Actually, I should have a lot to say to you. Maybe I should tell you to take care of your mother and your brother.

...But I know that you are a sensible child. Needless to say, you will do these things well..."

Du Wei was silent for a while, his heart trembled hard, and then he smiled and said: "Father, when you are well, you can go to the northwest with me. We are about to deal with the Northwest Army, plus the personal affairs in the family

Army, we now have an army of 100,000. You are the best commander!"

Old Raymond did not answer this sentence. He looked at his son, with a hint of brilliance in his cloudy eyes.

"Son, go and get my sword." Old Raymond made this strange request.

Du Wei didn't hesitate at all. He immediately turned around and took off the long sword hanging from the wall. This was exactly the sword that old Raymond owned. This sword accompanied old Raymond through most of his military career.

From the northwest to Nanyang!

Although he was too weak to hold the sword, Old Raymond held the sword in his arms and gently stroked the blade with his trembling fingers: "Do you know? The first time I officially led troops on the battlefield was

More than twenty years ago, in the northwest! And this sword has followed me since then."

Du Wei immediately said: "Believe me, father, in the next Northwest War, you will still take this sword and lead the army to fight! That guy Lu Gao is definitely no match for you!"

Old Raymond smiled, he smiled very complicatedly, then put down his hand and stared at Du Wei: "Son. I know that you can do a great job without me... you are my best son.

You are also the most outstanding talent in the history of the Luo Lin family. I know that no matter what you do, you can accomplish it very well..."

Du Wei finally couldn't bear it anymore and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes: "Father..."

"Why are you crying?" Old Raymond's eyes suddenly burst into light. At this moment, the style of the once glorious imperial general returned to him: "I have lived for so many years and have been glorious. Even if I die,

It's already worth it. We are members of the Luo Lin family, the Wuxun family. Death is nothing terrible for us Luo Lin family members."

Then, Old Raymond took a deep breath... Although his voice was weak, the firmness and decisiveness in his tone still sounded like that of a general: "Son, go and call your mother and brother.

Well, I have something to say!"

Du Wei took a deep look at his father, and suddenly he guessed something...

Could it be that it’s time?

A few minutes later, the countess and Gabri were standing beside Raymond's bed. To everyone's surprise, old Raymond seemed to be full of life. He even felt much better. He worked hard by himself without anyone's help.

He sat up and leaned on the bed. Then, the family patriarch looked at his wife and son quietly.

"Gabri. Come here." He raised his head and waved to his younger son. Gabri, whose face was already full of tears, walked to his father's side. Old Raymond gently stroked his younger son's head and said softly: "I know.

, these days, I only let Du Wei accompany me, but I don’t let you stay in my room... Oh, my son, it’s not that I don’t love you. I love you very much. But, do you know? I just

I want to make up for your brother. I have been bad to him since he was very young. I just want to compensate him more in the last time and spend more time with him. I believe that your smart child

, can understand my painstaking efforts.”

"I...I understand..." Gabri cried, but bit his lip hard.

Then, old Raymond turned his head to his wife. His eyes showed deep tenderness: "Alice...my dear Alice...you are the love of my life, the happiest in my life."

The thing is that you are by my side. But I'm sorry, dear, from now on, our children will be entrusted to you."

The Countess, who had always been weak, seemed to have become stronger at this moment. With a charming smile on her face, she looked at her husband tenderly... But miraculously, she did not shed tears. Then, she slowly

She walked over, gently held her husband's hand, and using all her strength, she only said a very brief sentence: "I...understand!"

After years of mutual affection, the Countess expressed her emotions with just her eyes.

"My life is very exciting. I have had glory, glory, victory, and failure...I am very satisfied to have such a life." Old Raymond sighed, then coughed again, his face

With a satisfied expression on his face, he said slowly: "Originally, I thought I would die with my sins, but fortunately, I have an outstanding son who helped me atone for my sins, saved my family, and allowed me to

Even if you die, it will be a lot easier. Du Wei, come here."

This famous general of the empire finally called his eldest son.

The father and son looked at each other for a long time. The two men's eyes intertwined for a long time before old Raymond spoke. The general's voice was also choked with sobs at this moment.

"The person I'm most sorry for in my life is you, my son. I really want to make it up to you, but my time doesn't allow me to do so much... It's a pity that I have to continue to apologize to you.

, my son. Because I can no longer bear the burden of the family. I have handed such a burden to you, my young son... I feel really guilty for you. But I know that you will definitely do it.

Very good, right?"

Du Wei looked into his father's eyes, and then he took a deep breath: "As long as I, Du Wei, are here, the glory of the family will not be destroyed! Father, this is my, Du Wei Luolin's promise to you!"

Raymond was relieved. With trembling hands, he handed over the long sword in his arms and placed it in Du Wei's hand.

As the sword was handed over, the color of life in old Raymond's eyes quickly passed away. He seemed to be unable to hold on any longer and lay down gently.

"Duwei...my son...the person I'm most sorry for in my life...is you. And the thing I...the most regretful...is...is..."

At this point, his voice gradually became fainter, and Du Wei quickly took two steps forward and put his ear to his father's mouth.

This once all-powerful general finally revealed the biggest regret in his life.

It was not that he made a mistake in the coup, nor was it that his family was almost ruined because of his own sins.

The last words he said, the biggest regret in his life, were:

"...Yes, when you were born, I was thousands of miles away. As...a father, I couldn't watch you. My first son...was born!"

Then, he closed his eyes...forever.

This once famous general in the history of the Augustinian Dynasty finally finished his life of hard work and merit. When he was dying, he was lying on the bed with his dear family members seeing him off. It can be said that for a general, he should

It's an extremely happy ending.

Du Wei held his father's long sword in his arms and it felt heavy. His younger brother Gabri was crying bitterly, but Du Wei seemed to feel that his heart was empty, so empty that he didn't even have the desire to shed tears.

"I sent you to Luo Lin's hometown to wish you well!"

"Yes, the person who killed you was sent by me."

"You are a magician and a member of the Luo Lin family!!"

"He is no longer a member of my Luo Lin family!"

"Son, you are better than me..."

"I just want to hug you, my son..."
