1226 No Bright Future in Sight
When Chu Feng escaped from the prison of Fengming Villa, his expression was even more angry and withdrawn than this woman's.
Chu Feng was silent for a long time, sighed, and then said, "Girl, what do you want me to do to believe me?"
The woman looked at Chu Feng and was silent.
She didn't know how she would trust the person in front of her, a person who wanted to deceive her trust, of course she would do anything to win her trust, wouldn't she?
Chu Feng looked at the woman, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "At least please tell the girl, is the place where the refugees are taking refuge safe?"
The woman pursed her lips slightly, feeling that such a thing was not important, even if the other party was an enemy, she actually knew about it, so she said, "There is no danger for the time being." β
Chu Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "If you go south from here, if you go more than thirty miles, there will be no more monks from the Six Realms. There are refugees from the ghost country within a radius of 100 miles, and I will continue to clear some monks nearby who cannot go, and ask the girl to organize people who can still move to contain the refugees. β
The woman hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "I'm sorry for you." β
Chu Feng hesitated for a moment, then took out another piece of jade, stretched out his hand and gestured on the jade for a while, depicting the next golden light, and then handed it to the woman and said: "Girl, if you are still in danger, please stimulate this piece of jade with your true qi, it should be able to support it for a while, and I will arrive as soon as possible." β
Chu Feng paused, took some pills and handed them over: "There are also these pills, although they are a drop in the bucket, but if a pill is dissolved with three catties of water, and each person drinks one or two taels, as long as it is not too seriously injured, it should be able to survive, but the external injuries are ever-changing, and it cannot be generalized after all." β
The woman frowned slightly, a little hesitant to take it.
Chu Feng knew that the woman was still suspicious, so he could only smile and say: "This area is not a secret place, if I want to harm people, I don't have to spend so much thought." β
The woman thought about it, even if this jade bi could track her breath, as long as she didn't move to the shelter, it should be fine, so she also took the jade bi in Chu Feng's hand and said softly: "Thank you so much." β
Chu Feng nodded and said, "Girl, please be more careful." β
After saying that, Chu Feng immediately stopped hesitating and continued to sweep towards the periphery.
The woman looked at Chu Feng's figure in the distance, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the three children behind her and said, "Let's go." β
"Sister, what's your name?" asked the eldest boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, carrying the younger girl, who was no more than three or four years old, and holding another little boy of seven or eight years old in one hand.
"My name is Mingzhu. The woman smiled slightly, tore a piece of cloth from her dress, and wrapped the wound on the severed arm of her left hand.
Mingzhu took the three children and headed towards the south, although the three children were all civilians, but they were also demon clansmen, even if they had not practiced, their foot strength was not slow, but they entered the area that Chu Feng said in more than a quarter of an hour.
Along the way, Mingzhu can see the ghost country refugees supporting each other, rummaging in the ruins one after another, as if they want to rescue something, and there are also many refugees who sit on the side of the road and hide their faces and cry bitterly, and there is no figure around them.
"Child, child......" A cry of surprise suddenly pierced the night sky, and a woman cried and pounced on the side of the road, "My child, my child......"
Mingzhu took her eyes in front of her, only to see a woman holding the boy and the boy led by the boy crying bitterly, and the boy who had been stubborn and tenacious and the boy he was holding couldn't hold back anymore, hugging the woman and crying.
"Mother...... Mother...... Hug...... Daddy hugs ......" the child behind the boy stretched out his arms and muttered unworldly.
The child's whispering caused the mother's cry to burst into the middle of the cry, and after a moment of silence, it suddenly erupted into a cry of more grief and despair.
Mingzhu stared slightly, let out a long sigh, and walked away silently.
"The seriously wounded are all carried to the center, concentrated on treatment, and they all have the strength to look around to see if there are any other wounded!" a voice suddenly sounded, gradually approaching from a distance.
Mingzhu was slightly stunned, only to see the figure of a slightly chubby middle-aged man appear in the night, and shouted loudly while looking around.
"Captain!" Mingzhu exclaimed.
The slightly chubby middle-aged man was also stunned, and immediately found Mingzhu's blood and wrist-to-wrist broken left arm, his eyes became a little sad, and he stepped forward and said, "Mingzhu, it's great that you're still alive." β
Mingzhu smiled helplessly and said, "Captain...... It's not a pity for me to die......"
The man frowned slightly, and said, "What do you say, the city lord has already punished you, then it will naturally be fine, you don't have to worry about it all the time." β
Mingzhu pretended to smile lightly and said, "Why is the captain here?"
The man was just about to speak, as if he remembered something, and said, "Come with me, talk as you go, and now we need every ounce of our strength." β
Mingzhu nodded, walked side by side with the man, and continued to move towards the south.
As she moved further south, Mingzhu saw more and more people moving in an organized manner, constantly gathering refugees, searching for the wounded, clearing the burning forest and burning ashes, and searching for all the supplies that could be used.
"After the city lord died in battle, the young city lord and the deputy city lord went to the place entrusted by the city lord, and before that, the young city lord ordered a few of us to leave Blackwater City and escort the retreat of the refugees who had fled from Blackwater City. After that, after Blackwater City blew itself up, a while later, a monk killed him. Unfortunately, we were outnumbered, and I was defeated in Linghe, so I escaped with great difficulty. β
"When I woke up, I had already drifted down the Ling River to here, and when I climbed ashore, I realized that the monks had been cleared by a very powerful figure. I saw that the scene was really chaotic, and I was afraid that many people who could have been saved would be dragged to death if it was delayed like this, so I began to come forward to organize. Now I have just had the scale of the organization, but there is a shortage of manpower, and I met you, God really helped me. β
The more the man spoke, the happier he became, but he sighed again, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to see the true face of that master, if I let me see him, I must thank him for his great kindness." β
Mingzhu smiled in agreement, but was noncommittal.
The two of them advanced for a while, and then they saw a clearing that had been cleared, and on the clearing lay figures one after another, the figures blurred by the solidified blood and the night, each of them constantly moaning in pain.
"Those who know how to heal come here, come here!" shouted in the distance.
"There are lightly wounded people over there, and there is almost no danger to their lives with a simple bandage. I want to recruit some people who know medical skills from the lightly injured to save the lives here, but ......" the man said and sighed, with a look of helplessness and sadness, "There are people who know some medical skills, but they ...... Now I can't find so many medicinal herbs at all. β
Mingzhu watched as several men and women struggled to move among the seriously wounded all over the place, trying to alleviate the pain they had endured.
"This one has been ...... Passed away. A man raised his head and shouted at the darkness on the other side, and as soon as he finished speaking, several people rushed out and lifted the wounded man, who had died of serious injuries, into the darkness, not knowing where he had finally gone.
"Water ......" A comatose seriously injured man in front of the two of them was covered in strips of cloth, all soaked in blood, but he was still muttering to himself.
"Those who fetch water, where are all the water fetching dead!" the man roared angrily, "Isn't it clear that the water can't be broken, don't you know! Ling He is behind him, is his leg broken!"
"Captain Zhu, it's not easy for them, they don't practice, running around like this, where can they stand it......" A healer looked up and smiled bitterly, "Ah Qing has already fallen ill, and the other people are already too tired to do it, if they continue to do it, they are afraid that they will overwork and die violently......"
"Kill me, please kill me......" The man's roar woke up a man who had fallen into a coma, and as soon as he woke up, he let out a terrible wail, "I'd rather die now than live and suffer like this...... I'm like this...... What's the point of being alive, what's the point!"
Mingzhu couldn't help but look at the man when he heard the sound, the man's arms and legs had been cut off by Qi Gen, and the wound was extremely round, obviously cut off by someone.
Such a serious injury, even if you live, will be a painful life...... Even a life that is worse than death.
"It's all the sins of those beasts. Zhu Captain gritted his teeth fiercely, "Give him a good time." β
"Captain......" Mingzhu was stunned.
"Such a wounded man who lives with nothing but pain...... As long as they have such a request, we will let them go on the road and suffer less. The man had been in a coma before...... That's why it's been delayed until now. β
As he spoke, Captain Zhu grabbed a waist knife, walked to the man's side, squatted down, blocked the man's eyes with one hand, and put the knife against the man's neck with the other.
"Let's go, brother. β
"Thank you very much, I wish the captain ......"
"Clickβ"
The sharp knife slashed through the man's neck, and hot blood splattered Captain Zhu's face, staining the whole world in his eyes scarlet.
They had survived the persecution of the monks, but their suffering had not diminished.
Mingzhu can imagine that even if the ghost country survives this catastrophe, the future of the ghost country still can't see the light.
There was darkness ahead, and everything was destroyed.
Where is there any hope?
