Wu Fang was about to turn around and walk towards the city with the old, weak, sick and disabled, when Liu Yu suddenly said, "Wait a minute. Guys, please find some cloth to cover your mouths and noses, and then you have to build a few pyres here, light a fire, and if the corpse is already rotten, it is better to burn it and bury it deeply. ”

Wu Fangzheng was slightly stunned, and turned to look at Liu Yu: "Lord Abbas, why is this?" ”

Liu Yu Zhengse said: "If the corpse can't be buried in the ground, the heavens will be furious, and the plague god will descend on these corpses to punish the living. These corpses have been rotting here for more than a month, it is best to burn them directly and then bury them deeply, if you don't want the plague god to come up, then it is better to do what I say. ”

Wu Fangzheng and the others' faces changed greatly, and they nodded their heads again and again, and many people directly ripped off the corner of their tattered clothes and covered their mouths and noses, Wang Rui looked at Liu Yu and said, "Lord Abbas, let's go to the forest on the side to find branches, keep them and make a big fire." ”

Liu Yu nodded: "Also, gather all the food that can be found in the city, and after burying these corpses, we will discuss where to go and how to go." ”

An hour later, Liu Yu wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, held a shovel, stood on the ground, looked at the Xingyang people who were filling in the moat dozens of steps away, the fire on one side had gradually begun to go out, and the ashes were floating everywhere along the wind, mixed with dust, many people who had just buried their relatives and friends were kneeling on the ground, crying at the moat that had just been filled, and Wang Rui brothers and Liu Zhong also felt the same way, and followed them, calling the sky and grabbing the earth, although there were less than 100 people, But this mournful cry fluttered in the wind in this wilderness, like a thousand armies wailing.

Murong Lan stood silently beside Liu Yu and sighed softly: "Wars are always so cruel, the most bitter thing is these people, before we came, they didn't even dare to come out to collect the corpses, today with us, they can finally bury these dead villagers, crying so sadly, probably knowing that they will not return to this city that has made them experience such a catastrophe." ”

Liu Yu nodded calmly: "Since the Yongjia Rebellion, there has been no peace in the world, the city has changed the king's flag, the north has been constantly at war, changing the overlord, and it is only these people who suffer." Therefore, only by ending the war as soon as possible can we restore peace in the world. Murong Lan, I hope that our trip will go smoothly, and in the future, the Great Jin will recover these places and be safe forever. ”

Murong Lan hooked the corners of her mouth: "I hope so." But now the question is, do you want them to go back to Pengcheng, but can they walk this two thousand miles? We have encountered bandits along the way, just these old, weak, sick and disabled, only relying on the Wang brothers, can we survive to Pengcheng? ”

Liu Yu's eyes sparkled: "When I was working just now, I was also thinking about this problem, these people are weak when the army is in chaos, they are like lambs to be slaughtered, they stay to wait for death, and they are afraid that they will die faster if they are forced to go on the road." Perhaps, we should escort them back to Pengcheng and let them get to a safe place. ”

Murong Lan's face changed: "Are you crazy?" Take them back to Pengcheng again? Aren't you going to Chang'an? This time it is two or three thousand miles back and forth, but I am afraid that when you arrive in Pengcheng, Chang'an will be captured by Murong Chong. ”

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "No, I can't watch these people die, Murong Lan, you can go to Chang'an to grab the jade seal first, and I will quickly go to Chang'an to find you after I finish my work." ”

Murong Lan shook her head: "If I can get the jade seal myself, then do I need to do more and go to the Jin Kingdom to find you to help?" Liu Yu, don't say stupid things, we have done our best to be benevolent and righteous, and we can't spoil our business because of them. ”

Liu Yu looked at the people of Xingyang who were still crying in the distance, and raised his eyebrows: "By the way, where is the Huan family army now?" If it is a little too far back to Pengcheng, maybe, perhaps, we can find a way to march southwest, join up with the army of the Huan clan, hand over these people to them, and we can go on our way. ”

Murong Lan pondered for a moment and shook her head: "I'm just afraid, the Huan family army doesn't know about your and my mission this time, if we are detained, then all the plans will not be realized." Besides, Huan Xuan is only afraid that he will say bad things about you, if you really reveal your identity, then Huan Chong's two sons will not let you go. If you can't use it for them, it's better to get rid of it as soon as possible, so as not to become your own trouble. ”

Liu Yu's eyes widened: "How is it possible, after all, the Huan family is also an important minister of the Great Jin, how can they kill the soldiers of the imperial court for no reason?" ”

Murong Lan sneered: "You see how many of these people in the power wing are plotting to get rid of my eldest brother, you will know that this kind of internal struggle is far more intense than the outside. The Huan clan in Jingzhou was originally the strongest in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it was precisely because of this that Huan Wen dared to do something that usurped and rebelled. Now Xie Xuan has made a Beifu army, the first war shocked the world, the strongest in the south has changed from the Jingzhou Huanjia army to the Beifu army, and you are a famous hero of the Beifu army, if you can't be used by them, you must find an excuse to get rid of it early. Now that the war is in chaos, you have been ordered to go to Chang'an again, and the Huan family can completely punish you for the crime of desertion and kill you. If you don't reveal your true identity, now with the faces of our two Hu people, it is enough to be killed as spies. ”

Liu Yu's brows gradually furrowed, he thought carefully about Murong Lan's words, judging the gains and losses, Murong Lan looked at Liu Yu and sighed: "Liu Yu, I know that you have a good heart and can't bear to see the people suffering, but along the way, there are too many such poor people, if you see one, you have to save one, and if you see one, you have to save one, then I'm afraid we don't have to rush to Chang'an." What's more, the Northern Expedition of the Huan family also regarded the people of the Central Plains as thieves, and they did a lot of things to plunder, burn and kill, if you really want to pity these people, there is only one way, which is to take them to Luoyang and hand them over to Fu Hui, maybe this is the only feasible choice for them. ”

Liu Yu said categorically: "No, they are Han, I can't hand them over to Hu Lu again, Murong Lan, don't worry, we will definitely have a way." ”

As he was talking, Wang Rui suddenly shouted loudly: "Oh no, two heroes, there are cavalry attacking!" ”
