Chapter 656: Counting by Head
In the dark tunnel, there are many shadows, there are a few fires flickering, and in the silence, only the sound of small footsteps can be heard, kicking and stomping, which makes people upset and at the same time, there is also a little fear spreading.
After turning a corner again, someone finally couldn't bear the silent fear, the fat body held a doll in one hand, squeezed them to Jinxiu, and whispered, "Jin Gongzi, you are so familiar with this tunnel, but you are from this village?"
was already anxious in his heart, but because he was afraid of the splendid scenery of the old and weak women and children behind him who deliberately slowed down, he couldn't help but glance at the king when he heard the words, and his heart was impatient, and his tone was not very gentle, "What is it, what is it?"
Wang Yuanwai choked, but he didn't dare to get angry, he knew that now is not as good as before, in the past he was surrounded by servants, sitting on thousands of acres of fertile land, but now he is just a common man who fled to escape the war, and the person in front of him is not only a hero who saved all the people in the town, but also a brother and brother with his parents here.
In the shadow of the torch, Wang Yuanwai smiled, and a very pleasing smile appeared on his white and tender face that was not relaxed because of old age, only to see him shake his head again and again, "No, no, Wang is just afraid because of this tunnel, so he has nothing to talk to Gongzi and find some sense of security..."
His appearance can't make Jinxiu annoying, and his heart is impatient because of his gag, which eases up a little, unprecedented, the corners of Jinxiu's lips flashed a real smile, and comforted, "Don't be afraid, Qingniu Village is now very different from before, you can see it when you arrive, it's almost over, this darkness is almost over......" Under the hazy firelight, everyone only listened to Jinxiu's clear voice saying words like an oath.......
.............................
The red light rising in the east brought new strength to Qingniu Village, and the old village chief breathed a sigh of relief, and the fierceness and anger between his eyebrows dissipated a lot, "Jinxiu is safe, I'm afraid that I will see Fang Cai's signal flare, and I ..... to return home" The old village chief said with an indelible pride between his eyebrows, as if Jinxiu was really his granddaughter.
On the side, Jun Yi's eyes flashed with a touch of almost invisible eagerness, and he answered, "I'm afraid it's not easy for her to come back, it's been a long time since we sent the signal, and she has responded, I'm afraid that as I just said, the Xiliang soldiers have scattered towards the neighboring villages and towns!"
Jun Yi said, his slender white and slightly calloused hands rubbed unconsciously, "I don't know why, they didn't scatter like last time, but they all came to Qingniu Village..."
Although this question is very thought-provoking, Gu Yisheng's eyes are still unconsciously attracted by Jun Yi's small movements, no other, because it is too familiar.
Because every time Jinxiu thinks or hesitates, he will unconsciously rub his fingertips, and even more, he will knock on everything within reach, and Jun Yi, who had no such small actions at all before, looks like this at this time, but it makes Gu Yisheng feel more disgusted that should not exist, this is covetous, this is blasphemy, Gu Yisheng's pale lips pursed into a straight line, and Jun Yi's gaze became colder and colder......
At this moment, there was a sudden shout comparable to a gong below, "Warriors, this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as my Xiliang station in the Northern Regions is no better, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, eating and drinking must not be worried, if you take this place, the great witch will be rewarded, when the time comes, gold and silver, beauties, promotions, you can choose, count the number of heads....."
As soon as the man's voice fell, the Xiliang soldiers who listened to the sound under the surrounding city walls couldn't help but let out a loud roar, the roar was actually more like a beast than a human, a roar seemed to be not enough, they held scimitars, sledgehammers, bows and crossbows, and raised their heads to the sky and roared, which seemed rough and excessive, but in fact it also had a rhythm.....
And the villagers on the city wall who condescendingly took all this in their eyes poured out a cool breath in their hearts, and at the same time, there was a little more anger, some of them were impatient and had already started scolding
"These barbarians!" The scolding man had sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, and his face was honest, his face turned red at this time, and he turned in a circle by the city wall with his hands behind his back, "This is to use us as pigs and sheep, and to count people's heads!"
When he said this, his face was already blue, and he spat on the ground, and then said, "Yaya, it's really beautiful, grandpa doesn't take a look at your head, I'm ...... I..... I am the pig ......" he finished speaking fiercely, but he saw a few familiar people around looking at him, his eyes were already full of smiles, his face turned red, he picked up his bamboo basket, and began to rummage through it.....
After the cheers, the panicked men in Xiliang patted their chests one by one in front of their generals and made military orders, such as how many people must be killed and how much food they brought back, etc., for a while, the city could only hear the hum of talking.
But at this moment, the man who spoke like a gong was beating again, and shouted, "The Great Witch has an order, immediately... Siege !!!!"
At this order, the group of Xiliang soldiers howled like beasts that had opened the gates and rushed towards the moat, the newly cut wood, the section was very new, and the Xiliang soldiers seemed to have become carpenters, knocking and beating at them, and the ropes made of withered grass seemed to turn out flowers in their thick and big hands.
On the side, there was already a sharpshooter wearing iron armor and carrying crossbow arrows on his shoulder, wrapping the rope around one arrow after another, his face was so solemn and cold that it could not help but be intimidating, and the great witch sitting outside his felt tent looked up at the high city wall, his eyes were obscure and gloomy.........
..................
When Jinxiu walked out of the tunnel with a group of old and weak women and children under his control, he heard the terrifying roar, and from time to time, there were a few screams and screams, and the people of Jile Town, who had just experienced life and death, heard this voice, and subconsciously were a trembling. But when they looked up again, they were amazed, surprised, and aftermathed.
But seeing the tunnel they walked out of at this time, the door opened was not far from the east gate, although the shouting of killing seemed to be close to their ears, but the three-zhang high city wall surrounding the houses and farmlands in the village still shocked them, and even, even the shouting and killing sound in their ears was not as scared as Fang Cai.
"This—is this Qingniu Village?" a voice asked with a stammer.
An elegant old man looked around, and replied, "There is no doubt that it must be Qingniu Village, Master Jin, Master Chen, and Master Liang have all said that it will be safe when they get here, but they can't imagine it, but they know that this three-zhang high city wall is really majestic..... " He said, with a little sigh and admiration, and even guessed in his heart, who is the person who blesses here.....
But at this moment, only the huge knocking sound of "bang" sounded in the ears, and the group of old and weak women and children were shocked at the same time, and at the same time, they also opened their mouths and exclaimed, "Bang the door again.....
