Chapter 112 To the North
When Xiang Ling'er opened her eyes, she saw Ah Xiu holding her head crooked by the bed, her eyebrows were frowning, her eyes were confused, her face changed from jade white to pale, and the whole person had lost her three souls. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She didn't have time to think about what she had seen in her dream just now, so she hurriedly sat up and pulled Ah Xiu and said, "How is it, girl, what do you see?" ”
Ah Xiu came back from his trance, nodded, shook his head again, looked at Xiangling'er and said, "Are you okay?" ”
"Me." Xianglinger remembered the dream she had just had, and her face flushed, what is this, did she see her future? Or is it just a dream after fainting?
Ah Xiu was surprised, she had never seen Xiang Ling'er's shy girl, and thought that she was blushing because she was still unconscious, so she hurriedly covered her forehead and said with concern: "What's wrong?" Did you just come across the Yin-Yang Stone? But the qi of yin and yang hurt you? ”
Xiang Ling'er bit her lip, the red glow on her face was still there, and she finally raised her head and asked seriously: "Sister, that Yin Yang Stone, if you touch it, you can see the past and the future?" ”
Ah Xiu fell into that kind of dazed again: "I don't know, just now after I poured my true qi into the Yin Yang Stone, I only felt that I ignored everything around me unconsciously, and a white light surrounded me, and the true qi was endless, and I couldn't stop, as if I was going to drain my whole person!" Later, as if I had touched something, my true qi was suddenly interrupted, and the white light was shining, and I fainted. But I saw ......."
"What do you see?" Xiang Ling'er asked impatiently.
"Fire." Ah Xiu spat out the word from the depths of his chest, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort.
After speaking, he gasped twice, and the cold sweat on his back was blown by the wind, and it was a little colder, and he couldn't help but turn sideways in.
Why fire again? Why is it still fire!
When she thought of that scene, she couldn't help but tremble slightly, the taste of suffering in the fire, she knew best, she couldn't live, she couldn't die, the taste of life and death tossing and turning, and the eternal fire of Shura Hell was nothing more than that!
But what she saw was not the fire on the high platform, it seemed that in a big garden, the flowers and trees and houses, all shrouded in the sea of fire in the night, and the ears were full of desperate cries and painful screams, which were more terrifying and tragic than when she was alone on the high platform to bear the fire!
What is that? Is that the answer she wants?
"Sister?" Xiang Ling'er saw that Ah Xiu's eyes were unfocused, revealing deep helplessness and grief, and hurriedly pulled her sleeves and called, "Sister! You okay? ”
Ah Xiu nodded blankly in response, and held Xiangling'er's hand with his backhand: "It's okay, it's just, I can't really see it, I don't know if it's a dream or what?" ”
Xiang Ling'er also felt the same way, the dream was too tiring, she now had a sense of exhaustion after a dramatic battle, her body was weak and weak, thinking of the moment when the white light bloomed, she couldn't help but be a little afraid, if she was shrouded in the white light for a long time, she was afraid that she would be broken, and the power of the Yin and Yang Stone was really extraordinary.
She shook her head, suppressed what she had seen in her dream, and said in a full voice, "Then where are we going next?" ”
"To the north." Ah Xiu blurted out, and after finishing speaking, she was a little flustered, there was a mess in the hexagram she started, and what she saw through the Yin Yang Stone was another fire, why did she subconsciously say to the north?
Is there a guide in the dark?
She thought about it carefully, but the thought of going north became clearer and clearer.
Xiang Ling'er believed her words without doubt, and lay down on the bed with peace of mind: "Sister, rest early, tomorrow morning, let's go north." ”
The next day was about to dawn, and the gray-blue clouds had not yet dispersed from the sky, and as soon as the city gate was opened, two horses went out of the north gate.
The city of Jinzhou was broken by the Japanese slaves as early as a year ago, and the guards in the city had already been completely removed by the imperial court.
If the slaves came few, they would kill a few, and if they came, they would let out wolf smoke and call for help.
After a few defeats in which the slaves fled with their tails between their legs, they no longer dared to fight hard, but only made harassing gestures, stealing to the shore from time to time, and leaving after snatching things.
The Wan'an army could not hold the entire coastline, so they gathered the ordinary people of nearby villages and towns and set up guard posts with each other, while the army marched all the way south to recover the cities that were still under the control of the Japanese slaves on the southern coastal road.
It was a good way to use the people as soldiers to fight when they came, and to farm and live when they didn't come.
But there are indeed a lot fewer people, and the old and young are missing, and most of them are young and middle-aged.
The two walked along the north for a while, until they rode their horses to a small fishing village in the northeast of Jinzhou, named Chenjiao Village, which was only ten miles from the sea.
Ah Xiu didn't know what was going on here, who was there, but he only relied on his spiritual sense and galloped on his horse. When I arrived at the village, I could already feel that the smell of the wind was quite different, with a salty and wet fishy smell, blowing on my face, slightly sticky.
A Xiu felt that something was wrong in his heart, and the breath of the sea breeze was very uncalm.
When he came to the outside of the village, he vaguely felt that there were many people in the village, so he slowed down his horse and paced over.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I heard someone shouting, "Who is it?" ”
Ah Xiu turned his head and saw that it was the head of the wall of an earthen courtyard at the head of the village, and two bows and arrows were facing the full moon, facing himself and Xiang Ling'er.
Xiang Ling'er said in a clear voice: "Who are you?" We're looking for someone! ”
"The Japanese slaves are coming in and out here, who are the two girls looking for here?" A deep voice came from the village, and a middle-aged man in a cyan military uniform walked out of the house.
The person who came was burly, the beard on his face was only slightly sparse than Meng Qianqiu's black face, bypassing the two cheeks and connecting the temples, his eyes were sharp, and there was a red scar at the corner of his left eye, which fell straight into the black beard, which was obviously a new injury, making people look more heroic and terrifying.
Ah Xiu dismounted and hugged his fists and said, "This military master is Wan'an Army?" We are here to inquire about private matters, and I don't know if there are any local villagers in this village. ”
The military master heard that it was a private matter, and knew that the other party did not want to explain, and listened to the accent, not a local, so he ruled out the suspicion of spies, ordered the sergeants on both sides to put down their bows and arrows, and said: "We are the Wan'an Army, and the villagers here have them, but this is not a normal time, and the girl should not stay for a long time." If you want to inquire about anything, you should first ask the sergeants, most of whom are locals. ”
He pointed to a row of soldiers behind him and said:
"After inquiring, leave quickly, the Japanese slaves will come at any time."
"Yes!"
No wonder they hid here, waiting for the Japanese slaves to come ashore.
Ah Xiu didn't want to delay the military situation, so he made a long story short: "I don't know if the villagers here have heard that twenty years ago, there was a family that lost a girl. ”
Ah Xiu didn't know how to find the answer she wanted, since Lingjue asked her to come here, she thought, there should be some clues, just ask directly, like a blind cat rambling, to see if she can hit a dead mouse.
The military master and the surrounding generals were all stunned, twenty years ago, those who had to be old only knew.
A thin soldier said, "The old people in our village have gone up to the mountains to hide, but I am afraid that the girl will ask them to find out." But. ”
He scratched his head: "I haven't heard my grandmother talk about which family lost a girl." Erniu, have you heard of it? ”
He turned to the other soldier beside him.
The man shook his head, and the others behind him shook their heads as well.
The military master clenched his fists and said: "If the girl wants to find such a person, I can help you ask in the army, in addition to Chenjiao Village, there are also several villages to the south, I can help you ask." But for now, the girl should leave first! ”
Ah Xiu was a little disappointed, but looking for this answer was like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it was difficult to find it, so he still smiled and replied: "Thank you, Master Jun!" ”
Xiang Ling'er treated Wan Anjun like his own family, and said earnestly: "Why is this general waiting for the Japanese slaves here, is it because Xin'er knows that they are going to land from here?" The whereabouts of the Japanese slaves are not so easy to grasp. ”
The military master said confidently: "This time, we finally caught the tail of the Japanese slaves, and learned that they were going to land from here today, so we waited here for the rabbits." Let's go, two girls, when the Japanese slaves come, we're afraid we won't be able to take care of you! ”
Xiang Ling'er smiled slightly, turned her head to Ah Xiu and said, "In that case, why don't we catch a few rabbits too?" Hey, sister. ”
Her hands were itchy, she hadn't killed a thief for a long time, her heart was moved, and she was afraid that she would miss Ah Xiu's matter, so she asked her opinion. saw Ah Xiu looking up at the sky, his mouth slightly open, his eyes burning and flashing.
Ah Xiu didn't answer Xiang Ling'er, her face was heavy, but she said to the military master: "General, I'm afraid that I will fall for the plan of the Japanese slaves!" ”
