Volume 2 A New Beginning Chapter 46 The Scarlet Grave
"Senior sister, are you okay? I haven't slept all night, or you go and find a place to rest, and I'll just stay here." β
Seeing that Zhen Siqi's face was not very good, Hu Yueling said with concern.
"Yes, Senior Sister, you see a little raindrop falling from time to time this day, it is estimated that it will rain quickly, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first. β
Zhen Siqi shook his head, tried not to think about Dacheng anymore, and commanded: "Since it has happened, let's go and worship these poor people, if there is an afterlife, I hope they can stay away from the war and live happily." β
After saying that, he took the lead and knelt down, bowed to the corpses, and prayed silently in his heart.
"Senior sister, let's go over and persuade them, Hu Yu has been kneeling there all night, and he hasn't seen him eat the dry food he gave him before, I'm worried that he will exhaust himself like this. β
After the worship, Hu Yueling asked Zhen Siqi that since they arrived at Yaoling Village yesterday evening, they found that Hu Yu had been kneeling there, and his hands and feet were still bleeding, no matter how the two persuaded him, Hu Yu was unmoved, seeing that the rainstorm was coming, Hu Yueling was even more worried about Hu Yu.
"Let's go, let's go together. β
Looking at Ning Lei, who had already broken his scalp, looking at Qiao Yin and Lai Bawen who were crying loudly, and then looking at Hu Yu, who was kneeling there motionless, as if he was a statue, Zhen Siqi shouted loudly: "Do you only cry? Can they wake up if you cry here for a day? I don't know if you have ever heard of going to the ground for peace, since it has happened, can you bear to let them be exposed to the streets like this?"
"Senior sister, what are you doing!"
Hu Yueling grabbed Zhen Siqi's arm, with a slight hint of anger in her tone, she didn't expect the senior sister to loudly reprimand Hu Yu and the others as soon as she came, but in the eyes of Qi Yun and others, what was even more incredible was the tone in which Hu Yueling spoke to Zhen Siqi, usually Hu Yueling admired Zhen Siqi the most, and the relationship between the two was also the best among the senior sisters, it seems that the power of love is really wonderful, and it can make a person's change happen so quickly.
Zhen Siqi broke free of Hu Yueling's hand, ignored her blame, and continued to speak: "Hu Yu, isn't your mouth very good, are you stupid now? I'm scolding you for being a fool, did you hear that?"
"Who are you kneeling here for? Don't you want to know what it's all for? Don't you want to avenge them? Or are you just a cowardly coward who only complains here, but doesn't dare to get justice for their dead? If that's the case, I misjudged you, and you don't deserve me to do anything more for you. β
Zhen Siqi's drink echoed above the ruins, Hu Yueling looked at Hu Yu with a sad face, she couldn't imagine that the senior sister would say such a thing, Hu Yu, who had already experienced the most cruel blow in the world, didn't know if she could survive it.
"Haha, hahaha, hahahaha!!"
Hoarse laughter rang out, but whoever heard it would not feel like it was laughing, because it sounded so desolate, so sad, how desperate.
Ning Lei stopped kowtowing, his stray hair covering his blood-covered face.
Qiao Yin and Lai Bawen also stopped crying, their red and swollen eyes, and their confused eyes couldn't express the sadness in their hearts.
"Go, go, there is a dream, may you all get what you want, good fortune and good health, there is heaven, may you have no more sorrow from now on. Hu Yu said sadly at the corpses all over the ground.
After finishing speaking, Hu Yu knocked his head on the ground three times, and then dug up on the ground with his hands that were burned by char and had just begun to scarre.
Ning Lei also stood up, opened his legs and came to Hu Yu's side, and like him, he used his big hands to dig up on the ground.
Lai Bawen and Qiao Yin also leaned over and dug up on the ground with their hands.
The four of them did not communicate verbally, but they did the same thing very tacitly.
After discovering what the four of them were doing, everyone in Yuexia Palace couldn't bear it and wanted to find tools to help, but Hu Yu just glanced at them lightly and said, "No need for you, it's a matter for the four of us." After that, he paid no attention to the crowd and continued to dig with his hands in the dirt.
"Senior sister, this?"
Everyone couldn't make up their minds and asked Zhen Siqi one after another.
"Let them go, as long as they can vent the grief and anger in their hearts. β
The hands of the four were already bloody and blurred, but none of them exhaled in pain, even the thin Qiao Yin was gritting his teeth and insisting.
Time passed little by little, and the dripping rain fell down, and the blood, drawing a red trajectory on the wet land, stained the earth red, and a blood-red pit appeared in the center of the four people.
One by one, the charred corpses were neatly placed in the deep pit by the four people, and with the handfuls of dirt sprinkled down, it represented the official farewell of the four people to their relatives, the official farewell to the past of this village, and the formal farewell to their previous lives.
A stone tablet blackened by smoke and fire stood in front of the earthen bag, this stone tablet stood at the entrance of the village before, which recorded the story of a Taoist who once refined an elixir here, and it is also the origin of the name Yaoling Village, and at this time, the stone tablet was engraved with one name after another by Hu Yu with his knife, these names belong to the people who were buried in the soil, it is the name of the charred corpse, at the end, Hu Yu also engraved the names of his four people on it, and then stroked them one by one with both hands, donated blood, dyed every name, every person, and also deeply engraved in Hu Yu's heartγ
This tombstone remembers a human tragedy that happened here, and this tombstone also marks a footnote to Hu Yu's life, which is the starting point of a legend, and will also be the end of countless people, and the final grave of those executioners.
A blood-colored tomb stood in the middle of the ruins, after doing all this, Hu Yu led the four people to bow to the tombstone three times and knock nine times, after saying the last thoughts, he resolutely turned around, turned his back to the tombstone and walked away, and never looked back again, he wanted to figure out what was going on, he wanted to find the person who slaughtered the villagers, he wanted to see the tombstone next time, he could sacrifice the heads of those people, he wanted revenge!
Zhen Siqi led the women to follow behind Hu Yu silently, no one spoke, Hu Yueling looked at Hu Yu's sad back, looked at the bloody hands, the blood was still dripping drop by drop, and the tears in her eyes were also spilling drop by drop.
Yaoling Village gradually disappeared, until it finally disappeared, Hu Yu stopped, not that he was tired of walking, but that he knew that here, he would no longer be able to see Yaoling Village, no longer see the home that made him happy, and no longer see the cemetery that made him sad.
"Sister Lily, can you wake him up?"
This time, Liu Lili was not angry at Hu Yu calling her sister again, although she did not enter the village, but she also saw the village in ruins, and later heard the senior sisters talk about the tragic situation in the village, and naturally sympathized with Hu Yu, and his senses changed a lot.
"Why are you going to wake him up, this person is short of qi and blood, although the wound has healed, but he still needs to recuperate, otherwise he will fall ill. β
Then he glanced at Hu Yu's hands and continued: "If these hands of yours are not treated, I am afraid that they will be wasted in the future, even if you don't care about yourself, but you don't care about the hands of the three of them? β
Hearing this, Hu Yu raised his hands, looking at these bloody hands, Hu Yu frowned slightly.
It's not that he likes to hurt himself, but these hands have already lost consciousness in pain, and along the way, he has been thinking about things, so he forgot about the injuries on his hands, and then looked at Ning Lei's hands of the three of them, they were all blood-red, and he forgot it, but the three of them also forgot it?
