Therefore, to put it bluntly, these acts of the government are just fools. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fu Jiayue said disdainfully: "The old trick, in order to appease the people, he came up with strange and chaotic rhetoric to prevaricate. ”

Xie Bai glanced at her, did not deny it, only said: "It doesn't matter if it's strange or not, the important thing is that the people believe it, the dynasty is stable, and the lake will no longer flood." ”

Hum!

Although she was very disdainful of this kind of thing, she had a point. In this era of power and power, if the powerless people no longer have this kind of unwarranted spiritual sustenance, I am afraid that many people will no longer have the belief to live in this world.

She also got the benefit of having a good baby, and she shouldn't judge them too much.

She didn't bother about it anymore and asked, "Has the lake been diverted?"

"No, in order to cater to that rhetoric, only culverts were dug in the land in all directions to divert the water channels of the lake. ”

"So, on the surface, it is the credit of the broken temple, and thanks to the fact that the people save money and land every month and take out a lot of oil and water to worship it, it really has peace of mind. ”

In addition to the daily expenses of the temple, most of them were used to expand the treasury, and the imperial court spent a lot of money to build culverts for them, solving the problem of flooding for decades. ”

Xie Bai slowed down the word "tax" and deliberately emphasized it, and then looked at her without changing his face, as if waiting for her next step.

To argue with him is to smash your fist on the cotton, which is useless and makes you unhappy.

Fu Jiayue glanced at him and continued to ask: "So, the water here is a branch of the culvert back then. How long does it usually take to get high tide?"

"Two pillars of incense. ”

Fu Jiayue said with a smile: "We can all swim, and it is not difficult to have two pillars of incense." ”

"It's not a problem for the tide to drown a cow in half a column of incense. ”

"But didn't you say it's just a branch?"

"A hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff. You hugged me tight, I'll take you, ahem, I'll take you out. ”

Suddenly, Xie Bai coughed a few times, although it was not much, but the sound it made was like that of a dying old man, which made her feel a little palpitating.

Fu Jiayue was faintly relieved to see that his complexion was as moderate as usual, not ruddy and not pale, but still asked tentatively, "Are you okay?"

Xie Bai shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”

"Really?"

"No ......"

Fu Jiayue pursed her lips, interrupted him, shrugged her shoulders and smiled: "I'd better swim by myself, when I was a child, I was often thrown into the river by my brother and not allowed to come up for half an hour, and the water is probably better than you." ”

But he only heard Xie Bai say: "If you want to be washed away by the lake, just follow you." ”

After a few words, she heard his cough again, and although he forced himself to let out only a muffled cough, she could clearly feel that his condition was getting worse. When she raised her eyes to look at him again, you could already see his slightly pale face beneath his frowning brow.

Fu Jiayue hesitated for a moment, but asked again: "Your face looks pale, it can't be that the cold poison is about to attack, right?"

"No problem. ”

With just a faint reply, Xie Bai took his eyes off her and went to investigate the structure in the narrow stone cave again. She stared at his back silently for a long time, and no longer insisted, but also looked away, and searched around the stone cave.

From time to time, the sound of his muffled cough came to her ears, and she knew that he didn't want her to worry.

The two of them didn't have many fire folds with them, but after a stick of incense, only the last one remained, and it could be seen from the dim light it emitted that it was about to burn out of life.

However, when they arrived, they would be faced with an almost overwhelming flood of water, and it was naturally unnecessary to leave one for emergencies.

The structure of the cave is very simple, but it makes it impossible for anyone who falls down to climb it, and when her fingers touch the wall, it is as smooth as touching porcelain, and the finer the touch, the more uncomfortable she feels. Can he do this for the sake of his sister's happiness? It is unbelievable that he should avoid people's eyes and ears in the midst of this cliff.

If she were a victim, she would still admire him.

After all, the brother and sister can be so close, except for herself, they are the first couple she has met in this world.

The light of the fire became smaller and smaller, and just as she withdrew her hand and wanted to approach Xie Bai's side, she suddenly felt a faint wind, gently blowing the hem of her clothes.

Wind?

Her footsteps paused, and she suddenly turned around and looked towards the source of the wind, only to see a little light floating in the middle of the narrow stone cave, and when she saw what kind of species it was, she looked at Xie Bai and said, "How can there be fireflies now?"

At this moment, the fire fold had been thrown aside by Xie Bai, he had already approached, stared at the fireflies flying by Shi Shiran, and said: "The lake water is very easy to store heat, and it is still underground, and the temperature is much higher than the ground, but it has only been about half a month in autumn, and it is not surprising that there are still fireflies." ”

In a short time, the number of fireflies became more and more, from three to two by two, to more than a dozen, and it was still increasing, and the small space was instantly illuminated.

Fu Jiayue looked along the source, and suddenly saw a two-meter-long crack at the top corner, and exclaimed: "There, there is a crack, and they flew in from there." ”

Without waiting for Xie Bai's response, Fu Jiayue was about to look back at him when she suddenly heard him shout, "Wait a minute, something is wrong." ”

Hearing this, Fu Jiayue was shocked, turned her head suddenly, and saw Xie Bai frowning, as if thinking about something, so she asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Xie Bai still didn't reply to her as if she hadn't heard it, and she was about to ask another question strangely, when she suddenly heard a noise of wings waving and animal chirping from outside, so she frowned and said, "What is that sound?"

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a loud bang, and countless dark bats swarmed in through the gap, instantly breaking through the hard stone wall and bringing down countless pieces of rubble. The rubble crackled and splashed, hitting the walls and the ground, and then falling apart again, spilling through the air with a little blood from the bats, and the small but neat stone cave was instantly in shambles.

"Squat!"

"Ahh

"Be careful!"

In a panic, Xie Bai pressed her shoulder, stretched out his robe to protect her in his arms, and after rolling on the ground several times to avoid the deadly sharp stone attack, the two were taken away to the corner.

The black bats poured in like a flood, screaming and crashing around in this small and messy space, the sharp sound with the never-ending sound of flesh hitting the wall resounded in the ears of the two, Fu Jiayue's eardrums were shaken and hurt, gasped, and hurriedly reached out to cover his ears.

Suddenly, several bats discovered the existence of the two of them, their dark eyes seemed to glow at this moment, and after hissing a few times louder and louder, they waved their wings vigorously and attacked the two of them with greed for real things.

Xie Bai quickly pulled out the short knife pinned to his waist and struck them with the hilt of the knife so hard that the black feathers were knocked off their bodies one by one, however, they were like hungry people who only wanted to repay a meal before they died, and they didn't know the pain, and after a more hoarse roar, they attacked him with a more fierce attack than before.

Fu Jiayue's face was buried in Xie Bai's sleeve, although she couldn't see what was going on outside, but she was entangled in her ears by this terrible voice, and in her heart, time seemed incomparably long at this moment, she didn't do anything, it felt like she was waiting for Baibai to wait for the end of the death bell.

She hesitated for a moment, then moved to poke her head out to see what was going on outside.

But I only heard Xie Bai say sharply: "Don't move!"

As he spoke, he domineeringly pressed her back into place, his eyes still resting on the bats that seemed to never stop attacking him with all his strength, waving the only short knife in his hand, and knocking them to the ground one by one without sparing.

Not far away, the ground was now covered with the corpses of bats, and there was clear, sticky ascites gushing from the huge impact, but not a drop of their blood.

However, the place where Xie Bai was holding was only a centimeter away from the blade, and when he swung and hit, he would inevitably touch the blade, and a large section of blood marks appeared in his palm, and the depth of the knife seemed to be able to see the white bones of Sensen. The blood, which flowed like water, fell to the ground with a clatter, drowning in a cacophony of sounds.

The moon-white sleeves were already stained with blood, and on the moon-white dress stained with countless dust, it looked like a bright red mandala, as if it was about to take his life in the enchantment.

Fu Jiayue clearly smelled the smell of blood, and didn't hear Xie Bai's muffled snort, she didn't know whose blood it was, whether it was the bats, or his......

"Ahem, ahem—"

The internal force in his chest was surging chaoticly, Xie Bai suddenly vomited out a mouthful of blood, spraying it on the bat that was about to attack him again, the bat excitedly hissed again, flapped its wings and flew towards him desperately like a group of dead soldiers who were not afraid of death. Not only these dozen, but also all the bats in the cave, their eyes seemed to be glowing with a ghostly light even more than just now, looking at him greedily with bloodthirsty desire, looking at him with the smell of blood.

His gaze gradually changed from cold to yin, and as soon as he grasped the hilt of the knife, he stabbed the sharp knife into the bat's body again and again, bringing countless blood flying and hissing with the increasing excitement of the bats.

"Xie Bai, you let me out!" Fu Jiayue suddenly ripped off Xie Bai's restraints, and the hair ornaments were all scattered in this pull, and her long black hair was scattered to her shoulders, confusing her eyes.

His eyes instantly moistened, and tears overflowed after seeing the dirty blood red he had never felt before.

Stupid or not, he!

Don't you know if you're sick?

Fu Jiayue grabbed his sleeve with one hand, pulled out the other short knife at his waist with the other, and vigorously killed this group of bats that were beyond his strength. Her eyes were full of resentment, as if what was in front of her was not an animal, but an enemy who did not share the sky.

Blood splattered all over her hair, her clothes, and her face, but it still couldn't stop her belief that she wanted to kill them all, even though countless bats attacked her completely faster than her.

Xie Bai looked at her murderous red eyes, he was a little stunned for a while, and the movements in his hands couldn't help but stop, a warm current flowed in his eyes, he pulled his sleeves, and said, "Don't touch me, dirty!"

"Fool! Now I'm dirty with you!"

The words that came out with a smile and a crying voice made her a little crying and laughing. Her hand clumsily ran around her sleeve and gently grasped the slightly rough palm hidden inside, feeling the warm touch coming out of her palm.

Xie Bai was stunned by what she said again, the depth of his eyes gradually fainted a little bit of joy, he firmly held her with his backhand, and between his eyes, the two of them smiled.

It is like two flowers blooming next to the Nai He Bridge, swaying with the light that only belongs to the two of them.

Perhaps, before waiting for death, they will be afraid, but when death comes to them, even when they are only one step away, their minds are open. Besides, who said that they would die here? As long as they have a little strength in their hands, these animals are scum in their eyes!

The sound of the tip of the knife cutting through the flesh echoed in the stone cave countless times, mixed with the more and more excited bat chirping, here, the echoing sound was like the howl of a terrible ghost in hell being cooked in a pot of oil, with unwillingness, unwillingness with more and more fierce resentment, a vicious circle.

Suddenly, it was like the sound of a clear spring coming from the depths of the desert, and in the midst of this noisy sound, there was a sudden sound of waves crashing against the wall, with the unique fresh and sweet fragrance of clear water, stirring up the smell of blood in the room, and surging towards the two of them.

The fortune teller said that she was born hard and could benefit others, so how could she simply die here? At least, she would not die until she did something great that could go down in history!

Fu Jiayue wiped away the blood stains scraped by the veins of the bat's wings at the corner of her mouth, and said with a smile: "The tide is finally coming!"

Xie Bai coughed, looked ahead with the same hopeful gaze, and muttered, "It's finally here!"

Suddenly, the black pressed a large group of bats like piglets being chased by a butcher, flapping their wings desperately and scurrying away from the approaching water source. One after the other, they kept colliding with the farthest stone wall, as if they wanted to break the stone wall as they had just done. However, it is a pity that it is a glimpse of the wall, and it does not leave them with a crack to live.

The two of them looked at the bats that were already scurrying around in a disorderly manner like clowns watching jumping beams, Fu Jiayue lifted all the messy hair scattered in front of her eyes behind her ears, and also reached out to pick up a strand of Xie Bai's scattered hair. It's like preparing your grooming for the next big thing.

If you don't hurry up, the more dangerous you are, the more you can't mess up your position.

Xie Bai said: "Hold me tight." (To be continued.) )
