Chapter 771: Water Realm
The next day, black clouds overwhelmed the city.
It was early in the morning, but it was as dark as night, and the sword banner on the city wall was frantically torn by the wind.
People from outside the city entered the city one after another, and the people inside the city gathered in the streets and alleys, but they did not dare to raise their voices, so there was a kind of tranquility in the city.
Suddenly, there was a shouting sound from the street corner, and the Yangzhou Chaobao, which was just born yesterday, is now selling again.
The difference is that today's Yangzhou Chaobao has only one theme: the army of dry corpses is coming soon.
The north gate of Yangzhou City has been opened, and those who flee are advised to flee north as soon as possible, and at the same time, the court newspaper is also recruiting strong laborers to resist the dry corpses together with the Jinyi guards on the city wall.
Almost as soon as the newspaper was issued, the solemn atmosphere was broken.
Many people who fled from the Southern Wilderness came out of shacks, street corners, and broken temples, packed their bags and prepared to embark on the road of escape again.
But there were also refugees who did not move, and a young man said to his father, "Dad, I'm not leaving." ”
The father, who was packing up the last bed, raised his head and was furious: "What are you doing if you don't leave, you will die here!?"
"It's better to die than to be scared, Dad, I'm homesick, I don't want to live this life of wandering and eating the last meal and not the next. The young man said.
"Home is gone!" the father roared, calmed down, and grabbed the young man, "Go, your brother, your mother is dead, I can't let you die too." ”
"What a difference!" the young man broke free from his father, "they are all dead, what is the point of us living again, is it better to live than to die?"
"Dad, you go", the young man turned around, "I'm tired, I don't want to run anymore, I'm going to make them pay." ”
"You!" the father said angrily as he watched the young man's figure disappear into the corner of the street, "Stay! ”
After that, he threw away the backpack on his body, "It's all dead, everyone is a hundred!"
"Simon's house", the people on the street corner are shouting about the demon hunting master who is lying in the thatched pile, who has sold swords and the rest of his life.
"What's the matter?" Simon's family lifted the hat covering his face, "What time is it, what is the noise, so that people can't sleep." ”
"What to sleep, if it weren't for the gloomy weather, the sun would have sunburned the Lord's buttocks. And this man came and took up Simon's house.
"Hey, I heard that the army of dried corpses is about to descend on the city, Ximen's family, what should we do, let's continue to escape?" the man asked.
Ximenjia threw away the hat, "I said can you have a little luck, what to escape, and also, don't call me Ximen's family, please call me Ximen Blowing Snow." ”
Since the last time I heard this name in the rest of my life, the Simon family thought it was good, so they changed it to this name.
"Don't say I'm sorry for my family and this name, or even sorry for that kid's trust in me. Simon's family flicked his sword, "Let's go, kill the enemy." ”
"Wait, the corpse hasn't arrived yet. Someone came and grabbed him.
"If you don't say it sooner, then I'll sleep for a while. Simon's house was about to go to sleep with his sword in his hand.
"But now the Jinyi guards in the city are recruiting masters to kill the enemy together, and they are still in charge of food. "Someone said.
When Simon's family heard this, they got up and left.
"Hey, what are you doing?" the visitor asked.
"Go to dinner. Simon's family never returned, and since the refugees fled to the city, prices have risen sharply, and the little money given for the rest of his life has quickly been spent.
"Hey, when you hear that there is something to eat, you run fast, wait for me. The man came after him.
The city is as dark as ink, and if it weren't for the lights of the shops along the street, you probably wouldn't be able to see your fingers.
But all the people woke up, and they were shouting and shouting in the streets, some of them were pulling their relatives and friends to flee north, and some of them were calling for their friends to go.
Especially the aborigines in Yangzhou, almost all young people have gone into battle, for them, behind them is their hometown, everything.
Upstairs in Bayong, Yu Sheng got up quietly, the two of them tossed last night, and the city lord fell asleep on the fourth watch.
After making an exquisite breakfast and leaving it for the city lord, the rest of his life stood on the Eight Wing Tower and enjoyed his share alone, looking at the distance to the south.
When he fell asleep, something was faintly calling to him.
The city lord was still asleep, and he didn't tell him about this feeling for the rest of his life, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, and studied the page of the book in his hand.
After yesterday's banquet, with the help of the maid of the City Lord's Mansion and the Jinyi Guard, who shouted "The King of the Eastern Wilderness is the most beautiful in the world", the word "Water Realm" appeared on one page of the book for the rest of his life.
The rest of his life was puzzled, so he could only put a page of the book in his arms, took off the oil-paper umbrella left by his mother, left the city lord's mansion, and walked alone on the street.
The rain fell quickly, pouring down, and it seemed to flood the entire city of Yangzhou.
The people around him hurriedly ran past the rest of their lives with their heads in their hands, and many people took shelter from the rain under the eaves on both sides of the street, looking at the dark sky in a daze.
The weather was so abnormal, in the past, even the dark sky was bright, but now it is darker than the night.
Under the illumination of the lights of the shops on both sides, Yu Sheng held an oil-paper umbrella and walked alone on the street, but his body was clean and clean, which attracted people's attention.
The water falls into the river, but the river gives way to itself at the feet of the rest of its life.
The people knew that the man in front of them was their only hope against the army of dried corpses.
Soon, there were few people on the road, but at the recruiting place under the stone statue of the city lord, many people were lining up in the rain.
Zhou Jiufeng was busy in the crowd, and the surrounding brocade guards worked hard to protect the lanterns from getting wet by the rain.
Yu Sheng smiled, opened the oil-paper umbrella, and went straight south out of the city gate.
For the rest of his life, he loved rainy days, and the rain made him kind.
When you are in the rain, all the pores on your body are open, and you greedily breathe the humidity of the rainy day, just like the pleasure of a fish breathing in the water.
Not only that, it seems that wherever there is rain and water in the heavens and the earth, you can feel it for the rest of your life, but this feeling is a little hazy.
While passing the stone bridge outside the south gate of the city, Yu Sheng stopped.
He leaned down and looked under the bridge, which was silent, and although his eyes could not see, he could clearly feel countless fish swimming in the water with his kindness to the rain.
He whistled lightly, "Boom", and there was a sound of breaking water, and countless fish jumped out of the water, breaking the silence of the water.
Yu Sheng looked back again, and the city wall of Yangzhou was no longer visible.
He lit the lantern and wanted to light the way, but at the moment when the lamp was lit, a gust of wind blew, and the rain went straight into the umbrella and extinguished the lamp.
"Hey", the rest of his life was surprised, the rain listened to his orders, and the sun didn't fall on him on weekdays, so why did an evil wind let them extinguish the lights today.
For the rest of his life, he couldn't figure it out, so he simply abandoned the lantern and smeared forward with an oil-paper umbrella.
Fortunately, there is rain, and with the help of rain for the rest of my life, I try to extend the perception of my body, where there are pits, where there are steps, I actually "see" clearly.
Water became a part of his body, and even after immersion and continuous trying, the feeling of the rest of his life extended longer and farther.
With the help of the rain "lighting", the rest of the life walked and walked, and met many monsters on the way, and they fled north in a hurry, ignoring the rest of their lives.
Only a demon beast with a yellow figure stopped after seeing Yu Sheng heading south, blinking his big black eyes and looking up and down Yu Sheng, cute and cute.
Yu Sheng was also stunned when he saw it, "Yo, aren't you running fast, why are you here?"
