Chapter 1262: Dead Branches on the Poplar Tree

It's just the first time I've seen thousands of dead bodies neatly arranged like this.

There are only a few trees in Xiutong City, and at this time the leaves are almost gone, and there are no fallen leaves to sweep in the autumn wind, but at this moment, the people who come to the front of the building are like dead leaves in the autumn wind, shivering, and if they are not careful, they will be swept up by the ruthless autumn wind and turned into dust.

The wind in Xiutong City stopped, but the soldiers with knives and guns outside the crowd were still there, and every breath seemed to be able to converge into a storm that was colder and more intense than the autumn wind.

The front of the soldiers was a handsome young man, with a plain expression, no sorrow or joy, and no murderous intentions, but no one dared to underestimate this young general, needless to say, the corpse in front of the building was the reason for this person.

Li Luo calmly looked at the people in the city, some of these people were innocent, some were innocent, some were old and young, some were men and women, all of them glanced at the young generals with trepidation, and then they hurriedly lowered their heads, carefully pondering the expressions on the faces of the Qingxiu generals, maybe the next look or the next action of the Qingxiu generals will determine the life and death of everyone in the field, at most it is just to add a few more corpses to the pile of dead people in front of them.

Li Luo quietly looked at the people of Xiutong who came to the front of the building, and there was indeed pity in his heart, but since he decided to lead his soldiers to enter the Longtan Tiger's Den in the sea of grass alone, the compassion in his heart would be received in the deepest part of his heart, even if he was cruel and murderous, he could not have the slightest hesitation and retreat, and the lives of the 40,000 soldiers behind him had been all on Li Luo's shoulders at this time, and there was no room for sloppiness.

In the crowd, Li Luo also recognized a few old people who were on the same side, and the fast knife Pang Xiang of the Four Seas Casino, who was defeated by Li Luo's gambler in three moves, was also among them, I don't know if it was because of the fiasco in Li Luo's hands, the fast knife Pang Xiang when he said goodbye was no longer the indispensable life of the day, and he was just an ordinary down-and-out middle-aged man who could no longer be ordinary.

Li Luo's three moves not only defeated Pang Xiang, but also destroyed Pang Xiang's confidence and his position of power in Xiu Tongcheng's painstaking management, maybe after Pang Xiang woke up, the money and power around him came to naught, Xiu Tongcheng is not short of casinos, and there is no shortage of people like Pang Xiang, there is one less four-sea casino, and soon there will be other casinos to take advantage of the situation, squeeze everything that originally belonged to Pang Xiang, and still be alive, even if it is a great luck in misfortune. However, living like this is not much better than dying, so Pang Xiang in the crowd is much more indifferent than others, so he will be recognized by Li Luo from the crowd at a glance. If you lose a lot, you will slowly become numb, even if it is your own life.

Pang Xiang didn't recognize that the beautiful general in front of him was a mysterious gambler who had a dispute with him, and even if he did, he was afraid that he would not surprise this down-and-out hero.

"Let's borrow food." Li Luo said flatly.

The people in the city suppressed the fear in their hearts, looked up at the young general in amazement, and did not understand for a moment what Li Luo meant by borrowing grain.

Yuan Jun took a step forward and said without a trace of emotion: "Whoever has surplus food at home can take as much as he can, regardless of the amount." ”

Everyone suddenly realized that these soldiers came to loot grain and grass, and the entire Xiutong city fell into the hands of these soldiers.

"If we come back to Xiutong City one day, the grain and grass we borrowed today will be returned to you."

No one took it seriously, they just thought that this was just a casual remark by the soldiers in front of them, and those with a little vision had recognized the origin of these generals from the armor and weapons on General Li Luozhong's body, not Caohai soldiers, but Dagan's soldiers and horses. Caohai and Dagan are in dispute, when Xiu Tongcheng almost buried the members of Dagan's noble mission, this time there was no slaughter of the city, it was a rare favor, not to mention these cold corpses, no one dared to say whether the next person lying on the corpse pile would be himself.

Li Luo didn't speak again, and there was no need to say more, the dead body in front of the building had already made everything clear. It was this indifferent look that shattered the last trace of composure of the people in the field, and the entire city was filled with suppressed fear. Sometimes indifference is more terrifying than rage.

No one asked out loud, and no one dared to refute, the people in the city naturally followed behind the Dagan soldiers, returned home and took out the already small surplus grain, no matter what, they had to live first, and after sending away these fierce gods, even if they ate the loess on the corner of the street, it was better than dying in the moment.

Li Luo's mood did not change in the slightest, and he was as calm as ever, as if he was a cold-eyed bystander, not the initiator of all this.

There was no shortage of soldiers in the camp who looked unbearable, but after a few more experiences, these soldiers should also become numb after getting acquainted with them. Li Luo didn't know whether this numbness was good or bad, but if he wanted to let these military robes live, it didn't matter how unscrupulous he was.

Li Luo has understood these truths since he was born, but he rarely has the opportunity to do so. Hu Cha Dong Cicada quietly peeked at Li Luo, and he really couldn't imagine how many burdens Li Luo was carrying in his heart that were difficult for ordinary people to see.

When the first Xiutong people brought food, Li Luo left the front of the building alone.

Xiutongcheng is still the original Xiutongcheng, but Li Luo always feels that something is missing here, and it has not become as complete as before. Walking and walking, Li Luo came to an inconspicuous courtyard during his walk.

Li Luo looked at this courtyard in a daze, and he also felt a little inexplicable, and he didn't know why he came here.

The door of the courtyard is locked, but naturally it is difficult for a light master like Li Luo. Jumping over the wall, the yard was full of yellow sand and dead branches, dilapidated, and it looked like no one had lived here for a long time.

There is a poplar tree on the west side of the yard, and now the leaves of the tree have already fallen almost this season, and only one or two pieces are still hanging tenaciously on the branches.

Li Luo took two steps forward, unconsciously standing in the position where she was standing when she first saw Mo Qing, learning from Mo Qing's appearance, recalling the place where Mo Qing looked up at that time. It's just a messy branch of the poplar tree, which is ordinary, and Li Luo doesn't think it's good-looking, it's just the same plain.

After looking at it for a long time, Li Luo decided to withdraw his gaze, but at the moment of retracting his gaze, Li Luo suddenly paused, raised his head suddenly, turned his gaze out a little, and carefully looked at the dead branches on the poplar tree.
