Chapter 458: Instead
The fires around Taiyuan City have not been completely extinguished, but the people and soldiers in the city can't wait to flee outside the city. The moment the gates opened, crowds swarmed out.
In an instant, the sound of help mixed with the crying of women and children was endless, resounding between heaven and earth, like a politeness from hell. Everyone's faces were gray-headed, and they couldn't distinguish even the most basic facial features. Most people are also poorly dressed and dressed in revealing clothes. In the face of such a sudden blow, who would have the heart to care about this.
At this time, Wang Xunyi gathered with Nan Ke Lin after completing the task, but directly entered Taiyuan City.
The tragic situation in the city cannot be described in basic words. The charred corpses were all over the place, the expressions of the faces were extremely distorted, the mouths were infinitely expanded, the eyes were as open as copper bells, and the limbs were extremely stiff. Some have even been burned to the ground, leaving only a black skeleton. Just by looking at it, you can feel how painful those people were at that time.
"It's all because of ......"
"What ...... me," Wang Xunyi looked at the tragic scene in front of him and couldn't help but ask himself.
"Ah......h Wang Xunyi and his party immediately became vigilant.
A "person" suddenly sprang out of the wreckage of the house that had not yet been extinguished, and the "person" was burning with flames all over his body, his hands were scratching his face frantically, and his expression was as if he had seen a ghost, and he was very frightened. The horror was followed by infinite pain, the heart-piercing pain of the flames eating at the bones. The clothes on his body were of course gone, and he acted like a madman.
The screams kept echoing in Wang Xunyi's ears, constantly questioning Wang Xunyi's heart.
Behind the man was a woman, who seemed to be his wife. Compared with her husband's crazy actions, the wife is at a loss and follows her husband in a hurry. Her mouth kept reading her husband's name, and cloudy tears kept sliding down her dark cheeks. How helpless the wife is, her inner struggle at the moment is not much more comfortable than her husband.
Next to the woman were two charred bones. One could clearly see the wrinkled skin and a little gray hair, while the other was very young. It seems that it should be their mother and child. But all this was burned because of this fire.
Unconsciously, her husband's screams disappeared, and Wang Xunyi looked back, but saw a scene that he could never forget in his life.
The husband was on his knees, his mouth covered with blood, while his wife hugged him tightly. The two of them just hugged and hugged each other all the time. Even though his wife's body is already on fire, the hearts of the two have never changed.
The two of them bit each other's shoulders to relieve the burning pain on their bodies. Their bodies were still shaking, and they let out a low moan ......of "mmmmmmmmmmm
The scene in front of him really shocked Wang Xunyi and his party, and this kind of scene is now happening vividly in front of him. Although both of them were in great pain, their clasped hands never let go. Their eyes were so unwavering. It seems that they have already made up their minds to die.
Gradually, both of them let go of their mouths and fell to the ground in unison. Until they died, their hands were not loosened in the slightest. The two men closed their eyes and hugged each other's bones, but in the end they couldn't get one last look at each other.
“...... Let's go, go and ...... with the monarch," Wang Xunyi said listlessly, the scene that happened in front of his eyes just now was enough to shock his heart like never before, so that he was now a little powerless. And this scene just now is like a "gift" from the couple to Wang Xunyi at the last moment of their lives.
Passing through the entire Taiyuan City, I don't know how many "fire men" appeared in front of Wang Xunyi, went crazy and finally died. But Wang Xunyi always endured the unbearable in his heart and chose indifference. He still remembered what Nan Ke Lin had said to him, he understood that the world was the law of the jungle, how to be fair, compassion and mercy do not allow a person to get what he wants.
And now Wang Xunyi has only one thing he wants most - to help Nan Ke Lin unify this troubled world. Therefore, he has only one choice, which is to embark on this ruthless path of Shura with Nan Ke Lian.
After going down the mountain, Wang Xunyi and Nan Ke joined forces. At this time, the Qu Wei army and some of the people who had fled earlier had all been concentrated on the plain. No one dared to make unnecessary resistance, and Qu Wei was tied up in a tent.
All of them seemed so weak at this time, if Nan Ke Lin wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as killing a swarm of ants.
But Nan Ke Lin didn't do that. I saw him riding his horse and standing in front of everyone, the wind howled, blowing his clothes up, the military flag of the Southern Dynasty swayed wildly in the wind, and Nan Ke Lone's long hair also moved with the wind. At this moment, there is an endless king and heroic spirit. Looming over all those present. Nan Ke Lin is like a god, ruling the lives of this group of people.
"I'll give you two choices now, one is to follow me, I will rebuild Taiyuan City, but leave. The choice is yours. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, wavering in front of these two choices.
And Wang Xunyi was still happy when he heard Nan Kelin's words, and the condemnation and guilt in his heart finally decreased, and Wang Xunyi couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
It didn't take long for everyone to split into two camps.
"Okay, in that case, those who choose to follow me will set off now and return to Shangdang with my troops, and I will naturally compensate you when you get to Shangdang, so that you can improve your own situation. Speaking of this, many people on the other side were shaken and wanted to go to Shangdang City for those compensation. But it was rejected by Nan Ke Lone.
"No, it's too late to regret it now, I'll naturally give you other "compensation", don't worry! It was only then that they gradually settled down.
After waiting for a while, the troops and civilians who had left Shangdang first had already begun to go, leaving only the civilian sergeants of the other camp and part of the Southern Korean army.
Their faces were full of anticipation, and they were still very concerned about what Nan Ke Lin said. Although Nan Ke Lin has just destroyed their family, the people in this troubled world can't manage so much, they will only care about the current things, and the things that are beneficial to them at the moment.
Nan Ke Lin did not speak, but motioned for Wang Xunyi to enter the tent together. At the same time, he nodded at the pawn on the side.
As soon as he stepped out of two or three steps, there was another scream behind him. The crying of women, the insults of men, the calls of children, the voices of parents all erupted again at this moment. Wang Xunyi's heart trembled again, and his face was embarrassed, while Nan Ke Lin was calm and indifferent throughout the whole process.
Wang Xunyi never looked back, and silently followed behind Nan Ke Lian.
In the moments before stepping into the tent, the screams ceased, replaced by silence and the howling of the wind. The wind swept across Wang Xunyi and Nan Ke Lin's cheeks like a sharp knife through their hearts. But those were just two bleeding hearts.
"You know what you've done! Today's events will definitely make you spurned by the world, phew!" Qu Wei roared angrily at Nan Ke.
At this time, Nan Ke looked at the teacup in his hand with an indifferent look on his face and drank it all. said coldly: "Ambition is a good thing, he can motivate people to keep working hard." But everyone's ambition is different, and in troubled times, you have to find an ambition as big as your appetite. If you drink too much, you will vomit it all like drinking too much tea, and you will even get yourself wet. With that, Nan Ke squatted in front of Qu Wei, two eyes staring at him.
"You know, huh?" Then he said: "You must know that the current situation is all caused by you, if you don't listen to my father's instigation of rebellion, if you don't plant trees around Taiyuan City, if you abandon Taiyuan and go to the West River of the Shallow Dynasty, etc., you can have different results." If ......" Nan Ke Lin paused, turned his back and said again: "If you hadn't killed your father, then your sister wouldn't hate you so much. ”。
Nan Ke Lin turned his back to Qu Wei, nodded to the figure opposite him, pulled out the accessories of the guards on the side, handed them to the thin figure, and said two words softly: "Go......." ,
And this person is Nan Kelin's new wife, Qu Huachong's daughter, and Qu Wei's sister - Qu Huashang......
