722. I am a soldier
Wu Fengwan was stunned, it turned out that this person was just a deserter, and his heart suddenly became a little disdainful, but no, he hadn't answered himself yet, why didn't he flee with him?
The man had already entered the house, lit the oil lamp in the house, carried a small stool, wiped the dust on it with his sleeve, and handed it to Wu Fengwan.
Wu Fengwan took it unconsciously, still thinking about the question she had just raised.
"Originally, I planned to be a soldier and live and die with Nantong City, but who knows, but later, I offended the city defense department and was fired. ”
When the man said this, he couldn't help but sigh and glanced at Wu Fengwan again.
Wu Fengwan was stunned, it turned out that she would be wrong, this person was not a deserter, but the situation forced her.
In the end, as a last resort, I returned to my hometown and planted a little thin field to survive. However, I didn't expect a group of blacks to hit here. The people of the city, alas, are really incompetent to our army, and I have no shame to face them. People advised me to leave, but I was a former soldier and couldn't say anything about leaving here. Although I am no longer qualified to fight to the death for a city, I can fight to the death for this village, even if I shed the last drop of blood, I will coexist with this village, and no one can look down on us soldiers!"
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but blush, Wang Chong's later two sentences, as if he was slapping her in the face, were because she underestimated others. However, it is also strange in my heart, this person really has some backbone, he is not a soldier anymore, just because he used to be a soldier, an ordinary soldier, and he still has such patriotic enthusiasm, he can't protect a city, but a village, which is really admirable.
Wang Chong didn't pay attention to the change in Wu Fengwan's expression, but took out an earthen bowl from a tattered wooden cabinet, brought a bowl of cold rice to Wu Fengwan, smiled helplessly and said: "Girl, you must be hungry now, eat this bowl of rice, hurry up! Maybe those black people will be here tomorrow!"
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but be stunned in her heart, it seemed that he didn't believe what he made up, he just regarded himself as a bad woman who cheated and cheated and ate!
Wu Fengwan said, but pushed back the other party's bowl of rice. Even though she was a little hungry now, she still didn't want to eat this man's food.
This man is already surrounded by walls, and his life is not satisfactory, maybe this bowl of rice is kept by him when the enemy comes, and when he is full to fight the enemy, how can he eat his food?
When the man saw that Wu Fengwan didn't eat, he couldn't help but smile and said, "What's the matter?"
Wu Fengwan shook her head, and was about to say something, but her heart was tight, and she felt that someone was coming, and there was more than one person.
Wang Chong was also at this time, suddenly put the bowl in his hand on the ground, and blew out the light at once, it turned out that the door was open at this time, he was facing the door, and saw a torch not far away, like a long dragon coming here.
He suddenly closed the door, pulled Wu Fengwan, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up, there is nothing for you here, and it will be too late if you don't leave." ”
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but sigh and said, "I can't leave anymore!"
"Please come with me!" the man said, pulling Wu Fengwan towards the back wall.
Wu Fengwan's hand was pulled by him, and he instinctively struggled, and the man seemed to realize something, so he couldn't help but let go, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!"
Wu Fengwan didn't speak, but followed behind Wang Chong.
Wang Chong was very familiar with this place, and quickly brought Wu Fengwan to the back wall.
There was a broken bed, unremarkable, as if no one had slept in a long time, covered with a layer of dust. I saw that he pulled the bed board, and a tunnel appeared, turned over and drilled down, and said to Wu Fengwan: "Come, get out from here!"
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but be stunned, this person seemed to have been prepared for a long time, but this village was too small to block the attack of those black-clothed people. However, it is possible to use it as an escape to.
The tunnel is very dark and not wide, and only one person can pass through, but for a cultivator like Wu Fengwan, his eyesight is different from ordinary people, and he can still feel the other party's forward steps, and follow him forward.
About a few dozen meters later, the two of them crawled out of a pile of firewood and grass.
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but be stunned, what is the use of such a small tunnel, it is almost no different from digging a hole in the back wall of the house, or opening a door!
Wang Chong didn't notice Wu Fengwan's disdain, but pointed ahead and said, "Go out from here and turn left to reach the main road, girl, run away!"
As he spoke, he was about to burrow into the grass and into the tunnel.
"Are you really going to stay in this tunnel without leaving?"
Wang Chong nodded: "I must coexist with this village!"
"You have such a small tunnel, it is useless at all, I think, the other party does not need to enter the tunnel at all, as long as a fire burns this village, or rather, ignites the grass here, will you be smoked to death in the tunnel?"
When the man heard Wu Fengwan's bland words, he couldn't help but be stunned, this is the truth, and he couldn't help asking, "Then what do you say?"
"Escape together, we can't hold here, even if we kill all the people in black who came this time, more enemies will arrive soon, and this village will be trampled by the enemy!"
"No, even if I die, I won't leave this village!" Wang Chong looked like he was going home, but instead of entering the tunnel, he took out a bow and arrow from the grass and suddenly headed towards the house in front of him.
Wu Fengwan sighed, and couldn't help but follow, only to see that the man actually climbed a dilapidated earthen wall, climbed to the roof of the room where they were just now, glanced back at Wu Fengwan, and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you leave?"
"For the sake of you once giving me a bowl of rice, I'll help you guard this village!" Wu Fengwan suddenly said lightly.
The man couldn't help but be stunned, and said in a deep voice: "Girl, don't be joking, with you, you can't keep it at all!"
"Isn't there still you, don't you know you can't do it!" Wu Fengwan still said lightly.
Wang Chong said in a deep voice: "You go quickly, you are different, you are just a woman, and I am a soldier!"
Wu Fengwan couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart, what Wang Chong said was too simple and direct, just a sentence I am a soldier. However, it is this simple truth that guides him to do whatever it takes for the sake of this village, regardless of his personal safety.
It seems to be a belief, a belief that was once a soldier!
