There is no way to go to the capital, and there are wild and deserted villages.

After staring at the old monk in the meditation room, the old monk finally spoke, "The female benefactor has been bothering in this temple for many days, and it is really not suitable to continue. ”

, this is to make people, Zhu Yifei is extremely sad, and she is so mixed up that she doesn't even accept the monk.

"It's not that the old man is not compassionate, it's just that it's inappropriate for you to stay in the temple with a monster, why don't you return to the mountains and forests, and one day you can cultivate to achieve positive results and correct the Fa. ”

"Master, I'm really not a monster, you have to believe me, I never know how many years later, I'm really human, hey, I guess you can't understand the master, I heard Huitong say that your old mana is boundless, I don't know if you can guide the maze." Zhu Yifei looked at the old monk with a non-negotiable face, and knew that this temple was afraid that he would not be able to stay, so he could only retreat and seek some ways to go back. Also, a woman living in a monk's temple can't say anything.

"There is a way to do right and wrong, there must be a life back and forth, I can only send the female benefactor two words "capital", and the rest of the old men can't do anything. The old monk's sunken eye sockets seemed to shimmer with golden light.

"The capital? Isn't this the era of Yanwu? There is also a capital? Zhu Yifei asked, although she was confused, but she was a little impressed by the old monk, since the old man could give her two words, he must still know something about her life experience, but because of that what kind of natural opportunity cannot be revealed, she also knows that everything has to rely on herself, and it is not a very wise choice to embarrass others if she is too embarrassed.

Seeing the old monk rolling a rosary without speaking for a long time, Zhu Yifei knew that it was time for her to leave, but she didn't want to go back to the mountains, but went directly to the capital according to what the old monk said, although she was also confused about what to do.

Cleaning the fallen leaves in the courtyard is regarded as a return for the grace of the acceptance, and I worshiped the Buddha statue, and left a few crooked words on the wall for the little monk, which is nothing more than what I will miss you when I leave, and then embarked on the journey alone.

The afternoon sun was even more intense, and her mind was dizzy and her limbs were weak, and at last she saw a few emaciated peasants with hoes working the almost dry fields.

Along the way, almost all of them were large areas of death, and even the crows' crows were so hoarse and weak, as if they were complaining about the injustice of heaven.

Hey, no wonder the temple doesn't take the next meal, dare to love is a famine year, although it rained heavily a few days ago, but it looks like it's almost September, the damn ones are dead, and how many afterthoughts are useless. She has lived in the city since she was a child, and in fact, she doesn't have much feeling about these, only knowing that in the era of famine, farmers are not happy, especially in ancient times when science and technology were not developed and completely depended on the sky for food.

A few rows of willow trees stood listlessly at the entrance of the village, the leaves were all half-withered, and a broken stone tablet faintly appeared between the fluttering willow branches, the handwriting on it was extremely blurry, but the scratches of the naughty children were particularly clear.

Entering the village, it is even more depressed, there are only five or six dilapidated grass houses, how can there be any yards, there is not even a woman crying, let alone chickens, ducks and geese, etc., a gust of wind skips by, and the dust raised by the flat ground pushes it into the distance, which makes it extremely depressed and desolate.

As he was about to leave the village, he saw a young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing only a pair of shabby trousers, but much stronger than the peasants before him, carrying a hollowed bamboo basket in front of him, in which lay a rabbit still dripping with blood, and a bow and arrows and a rusty trap hanging from his waist, and looked like a hunter.

"Hey, I've seen someone. Zhu Yifei suddenly ran forward and greeted him with a hundred times more energy, "Hey, do you know how to go to the capital?"

The young man was stunned when he saw Zhu Yifei, and then his dark face turned red, during the famine, many people starved to death, especially women, originally women in this village have become extinct, and suddenly such a cool young woman appeared, for him, who has always thought that women are just legendary myths, it is tantamount to seeing a fairy.

"I ..... I...... I...... He and I didn't say a reason for a long time, Zhu Yifei was a little anxious to see him so nervous, seeing that it was not early, she didn't want to sleep in the wilderness, holding the young man with both hands and shaking "Hey, big brother, don't let me go, you are talking." ”

The young man was even more nervous by her shaking, and this time his whole body began to redden, "Auntie, girl." ”

"Say, how to get to the capital. Zhu Yifei didn't ask at all when she saw him like this, let go of her hand and continued to walk forward.

"Girl, I know. The lad finally held back a word.

Zhu Yifei stopped, crossed her hands on her hips and turned back and asked, "You know what you said." ”

The young man took a deep breath: "It is about more than two thousand kilometers from here to the capital. ”

"It's so far, it takes more than ten hours to do the high-speed rail, my mother, how can the eleventh road take on the burden." With a long roar from the sky, Zhu Yifei was a little deflated.

"Well, girl, it's getting late, haven't you eaten yet......" the young man asked shyly and silently.

"Ennabai, I'm going to be tired to death, anyway, the little monk came to the mountain to turn into fate, why haven't I met him after I walked for so long, it's really a shallow fate, and he died far away. Zhu Yifei turned around and walked back, drooling over the dead rabbit in the basket.

"Sao Nian, are you hunting?"

"Well, that's what my father did, and today's harvest is not very good, only a rabbit, I'm afraid Uncle Li and they will starve again." The young man said worriedly.

Uncle Li, they are probably the farmers they met in the village, hey, it's really pitiful, "Didn't the government give you benefits?"

"Hmmm, what?" the young man scratched his head.

"Ah, this is ancient times, how did I forget, it's the imperial court, the imperial court didn't send you some porridge, steamed buns and the like?"

"The military rations for the imperial court are not enough, who cares about the life and death of the people. ”

Seeing the young man's lost look, Zhu Yifei couldn't bear to comfort him, "Forget it, don't talk about this, by the way, why are there so few people in your village, I see that many houses are empty, where have all the people gone." ”

"It's not a secret, in addition to the famine, there were monsters in the front of our village, and a lot of children died, all of whom were dug out of their hearts, and then many women died one after another, and then some relatives went to relatives, leaving only a few of us singles. ”

"Since there is a war, why don't you go to join the army, so that you don't starve to death. ＇

"Uncle Li, they are old, even if they go to the army, I didn't leave to take care of them, if I leave, they will starve to death. The boy smiled when he said this.

The two talked and walked, and when they came to the young man's house, Zhu Yifei helped to cook, in fact, she was just adding to the chaos, and after a while, the water was sprinkled, extinguishing the fire that was finally raised, and then the dishes and chopsticks were overturned, and the young man looked at them one by one, but he didn't blame her, and Zhu Yifei was even more embarrassed.

After Uncle Li and the others came back, the young man sent most of the rabbits over, and they looked at Zhu Yifei with fear on their faces, Zhu Yifei knew that he looked like this, and he appeared in the village in the wilderness, and he would definitely be recognized as a monster.

After eating, the two sat in front of the campfire, and the young man suddenly said, "Why did the girl go to the capital?"

"Hey, it's a long story, I was kicked out by the old monk in the temple on the mountain. Zhu Yifei said with emotion.

"There are no temples in a hundred miles around here. The young man was surprised.

"How is it possible, I ran to that temple in the heavy rain, ah, by the way, what is that temple called?" Zhu Yifei found that her language was a little pale, and she didn't know the name of that temple at all.

"Hey, I don't know how to read, but I really came out of the temple, there is a blind old monk in that temple, and an old monk named Huitong who is five or six years old, really, I didn't lie to you, please believe me." Zhu Yifei was a little anxious, she didn't want to be regarded as a madman full of nonsense.
