Chapter 035: Remorse
Lu Tianqi hurried to the Mo family's house, the house was made of wood and plaster, and it had been burned by the fire, even if there were people in the house, I was afraid that they would not survive.
Lu Tianqi's clenched fists trembled slightly, he looked carefully first, there was no Mo Yao among the hostages held by the man in black in the peach blossom forest, could it be that Mo Yao was burned to death by fire or killed by thieves?
Lu Tianqi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, the dampness under his eyes was evaporated by the scorching fire, and Lu Tianqi said to Chen Feng, who had been following him, "Let's go save the Mo family." ”
"Master, the peach blossom forest is too dangerous, I don't know if there is an ambush, I'll go." Chen Feng hugged his fists.
Lu Tianqi shook his head and said sadly, "No, I owe it to the Mo family and the people of the entire Lizhuang Village." ”
Tonight's incident was that he was careless, but he didn't expect the thief to use the next three kinds of drugs to stun the guards he placed around the fence......
It is said that after Lu Tianqi rode his horse away, Ye Tingyao and Mo Dongzi both fell into deep despair.
There was a heart-wrenching cry from the other side of the river, Ye Tingyao turned his head, and saw the man in black lifting the little gourd high, and a sharp blade was inserted under the small gourd.
"No......" Ye Tingyao got up and wanted to run towards the other side of the river, but Mo Dongzi covered his mouth and hugged him tightly.
"Yaoyao, I know martial arts, I'll save my father and mother's little gourd, you hide it here, don't come out." Mo Dongzi's voice trembled violently because of anger and fear of death.
Ye Tingyao kept struggling, where does Mo Dongzi know any martial arts, isn't it just one move and two styles that Lu Tianqi occasionally teaches, even a three-legged cat is not as good, Mo Dongzi is also sent to death, it is better for her to go together, otherwise she will feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Mo Dongzi understood that Ye Tingyao refused to listen to him, gritted his teeth, and slashed at Ye Tingyao's neck with a knife, Ye Tingyao's eyes darkened, and he fainted to the ground.
Mo Dongzi gently covered Ye Tingyao with the basket beside him, and after entrusting the heavy responsibility of protecting Ye Tingyao to Dumb, he ran to the Anqu River while the shadows of the trees were thick......
……
I don't know how long it has been, Ye Tingyao opened her eyes with difficulty, Brother Dong Zi's hand was really heavy, and her neck was still hurting.
Ye Tingyao pushed away the basket covering her, and Dumb kept lying motionless beside her, and saw that Ye Tingyao woke up, so he staggered away from Ye Tingyao's body.
The original fresh and clean Lizhuang Village is gone, and the peach blossom forest like smoke and fog has also disappeared......
Ye Tingyao was sure that there was no one around, so she hugged Dumb and got up.
This is probably the so-called 'the most unretained in the world', after all, Lizhuang Village was once so beautiful that she didn't even think it was real.
As far as the eye can see, there are ruins and broken walls, the village is scattered with white smoke and dust, the sunlight is scattered by the smoke and dust again and again, and the circle of confused white halo makes the village more empty and sad.
Ye Tingyao tried to raise his head, judging from the position of the sun, it was the middle of the hour, in the past, there should have been a soft chirping of kingfishers and the naughty laughter of children, but now except for the occasional ugly crow call, it was a dead silence.
Uncle Mo, Aunt Mo, Brother Dongzi, Xiao Yue, Xiao Hulu, what happened to them, why didn't anyone come to her, were they really thieves......
Ye Tingyao's tears fell down her eyes, and Lu Tianqi could clearly save Uncle Mo and them...... In order to suppress the trembling of her body, Ye Tingyao bit her lip fiercely, it was all her fault, if she hadn't rescued Lu Tianqi, the cold-blooded disaster star, how could there be anything wrong with the Mo family and Lizhuang Village?
If she is disgusted and disgusted with the Ye family's stepmother and stepsister, and her purpose is only to fight for the original owner and seek a place to rely on, then at this moment, she is really angry and hateful to herself and Lu Tianqi.
It was Lu Tianqi and her who shattered the beauty of this life.
Ye Tingyao rubbed her eyes with her fists, hugged Dumb, and limped towards the ruins of the Mo family, the outer wall of the Mo family was almost burned out, leaving only a few broken inner walls and a few loose supporting wooden beams.
Ye Tingyao was not worried that the house would collapse or the wooden beams would fall down, so she walked into the house with empty eyes.
The money Lu Tianqi left to Uncle Mo was still there, and the gold silk money bag was burned to ashes, but only the outer layer of gold leaf and broken silver inside was blackened.
Ye Tingyao put away the silver money and some surviving household items, and then took out two coarse cloth clothes that had not been burned by the fire from the cage and changed them on, and then took Dumb to the courtyard.
The mandarin fish hanging in the small courtyard are all called smoke and smoked, Ye Tingyao took off the dried mandarin fish, took it to the Anqu River, washed off the black smoke on the surface of the dried mandarin fish, tore off a piece of meat, handed it to Dumb, stuffed a piece into his mouth, and filled his stomach with the water of the Anqu River.
Dumb jumped into the Anqu River, stretched his feathers, shook the ashes a few times, and then smoothed out the feathers with a flat beak dipped in water.
Ye Tingyao also washed her face, seeing that the sun was rising, Ye Tingyao planned to go all the way out to have a look.
There were very few people in the village, and only a few figures were in front of their burned houses along the way, picking up the farm tools that had survived the fire.
Ye Tingyao walked for a while, and finally saw an acquaintance, walked two steps quickly to Aunt Jiang, and saw Aunt Jiang's face full of sadness, Ye Tingyao was also uncomfortable.
"Aunt Jiang, Aunt Jiang?"
Aunt Jiang couldn't give up, and Ye Tingyao called Aunt Jiang twice before raising her head.
Seeing Ye Tingyao, Aunt Jiang was stunned, "Are you Yaoyao of the Mo family?" ”
Ye Tingyao nodded again and again, and asked with hope, "I'm Mo Yao, why is Aunt Jiang here alone, Uncle Jiang and Brother Jiang?" Has Aunt Jiang ever seen Uncle Mo and them? ”
Aunt Jiang's eyes turned red, "Your Uncle Jiang and Brother Jiang have gone to Zhuangzi next door, where there is the old house of the Jiang family, which is also my daughter-in-law's mother's house." I came back to look for it again in the house, there are no old clothes that have not been burned by the fire, and I will take them to the village next door to give my poor daughter-in-law a body to wear, hey, it is really broken......" Aunt Jiang sighed as she spoke, and old tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
"Aunt Jiang, what's wrong with sister-in-law?" Ye Tingyao's lips turned pale, the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family is pregnant, and the month is quite old, is it ......
Aunt Jiang shook her head sadly, "It's almost time to give birth, I was scared by the fire and the thieves who killed a thousand knives, and I pity my formed grandson...... I don't know what happened to the fence village, and it attracted such a fierce bandit. ”
Ye Tingyao muttered sorry.
Aunt Jiang didn't hear what Ye Tingyao said, sighed and wiped away the old tears, and said to Ye Tingyao, "Hey, I'll go first, I have to go back before the sun sets, as for the Mo family, I haven't seen it, maybe it's all safe." If Yaoyao is separated from the Mo family and has nowhere to go for the time being, she can go to the town to find Lord Ye Sima Ye, this time I really want to thank Lord Ye, if it weren't for Lord Ye who led the officials to arrive in time, I'm afraid no one in the village would be able to stay......"
