502: Creation makes people
An Shi heard her words clearly but didn't move, but asked uncertainly: "What do you want the oil for?"
"It's burned. "Those who are controlled by this Gu worm will not die, but they can be burned to ashes. This is what her father told her, as long as she can't control it, she must do it.
"Sir......" An Shi was a little incredulous, these people were willing to die at the beginning, and they were going to burn them after repelling the Beiyan people? There were his comrades-in-arms here, and he always felt that it was too cruel.
"Go!" Nalan Jinxiu's fingers hurt so much that she couldn't do it, but she could hold on. She was worried that the sound of the piano would not be able to control them for long, and if she didn't take advantage of this time to burn, she was afraid that she would not have a chance later.
"Mr. ......"
"Anshi, if you don't move, the consequences are not something you and I can bear. ”
An Shi looked at the person who was playing the piano, and there was only coldness in her eyes. It was the first time he had discovered that the county lord was still so indifferent. He clenched his fists tightly and finally asked people to fetch the oil for it.
Ji Hongye is also looking at Nalan Jinxiu, he is a transparent and sensitive person, and he can always see things that others can't see. At this moment, I was also a little confused.
What confused him was not their decision, but the fact that this young man who was as cold as a rakshasa was really the one who had just made tea for himself?
One moment it was as soft as a spring breeze, and the next moment it was as ruthless as a ghost. These are obviously the two extremes of people, why can they be such a weak teenager now?
When the oil was fetched and poured into the net, the soldiers were sobbing. It is not someone else who they are going to be burned to death now, but former comrades-in-arms, people who want to sacrifice their lives in exchange for their survival.
It is such a feeling of guilt that makes them cry one by one, and finally turn into crying. They are men who stand up to the sky, warriors who fight bloodily, and they are all-powerful Xuanjia soldiers......
Why are they being treated like this?
When the torch was thrown at the Gu man, a painful hiss sounded. Finally, someone couldn't help it, pointed at Nalan Jinxiu and said, "Do you have any humanity? Have you forgotten the scene when they wrote down the life and death at the beginning?"
There were many eyes in the crowd that began to look at her, some angry, some tangled, some sympathetic. She didn't move, and the melody on her fingers didn't stop.
At this time, someone beside him couldn't control it and stepped forward to push her. She fell to the ground, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and the Gu Man began to move. They are very fierce, and even if they have flames burning on their bodies, they can easily tear apart others.
Ji Hongye saw her fall, and subconsciously wanted to go over, but she had already seen the black-clothed young man behind her, kicked down the person who pushed her, and said coldly: "Stand back!"
"Sir, it's okay!" An Shi went over to help Nalan Jinxiu, and the entanglement in his heart had dissipated, and he was more regretful.
Nalan Jinxiu didn't have time to care about the person who pushed her, as soon as she saw the Gu people rioting, she quickly sat down in front of the piano, and as soon as her fingers moved the piano, the Gu people lost their ability to attack again and began to hiss.
The Gu people were very fierce, and they didn't stop until they turned into a handful of ashes. Nalan Jinxiu was already sick, and she was already weak after tossing for so long. When she saw that the Gu man had finally disappeared, she was relieved and fainted.
Mu Li picked her up and whispered worriedly, "Sir, can you hear me?"
As soon as An Shi saw Nalan Jinxiu fainting, he was even more anxious, and said loudly to Mu Li: "Take Mr. back first, and I'll go and ask someone to invite Chen Xing." ”
At this time, there are still people crying, and there are also people talking about iniquity, and they are talking about conscience.
An Shi pulled over the person who had pushed down Nalan Jinxiu just now, pointed to the corpse on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Look for yourself the good things you did, they died because of your impulse, do you want to be responsible for them!"
The man was also impulsive at the time, and he really couldn't see the scene at that time. He also realized now that he was too reckless and caused so many tragic deaths, and it was only his responsibility. He could only hug his head and cry, unable to say a word of rebuttal.
An Shi threw him aside, his face full of anger: "What's the use of you talking about this here? When the soldiers came to the city, if it weren't for Mr., would you still have your life now? The most unqualified person in the world to accuse her is you!"
After Anshi's roar, the crowd finally fell silent. He took a few steps back and muttered, "I'm not qualified to question it, you see what her fingers have become, how can we blame her?"
He didn't know if he was saying this to anyone else or to himself. He thinks he has a unique vision and can always see things that others can't, but he has just questioned the county lord and even imagined her as a bad person.
He can't accept it himself, that's why he blames himself so much, and his emotional reaction is so big.
Ji Hongye calmly looked at everything in front of him, watching those tall men sweat and cry. Not desperate to a certain extent, they categorically could not have been. Northern Xinjiang is really devastated this time.
He also blames himself, blames him for not being strong enough to support Northern Xinjiang against public opinion. Now that he thinks about it, the people of the common people have to rely on a young man to take the evil path to protect him, and he will feel ashamed.
When Nalan Jinxiu woke up, it was already the second half of the night, and as soon as she moved, she felt a heart-piercing pain in her fingers. She put her palms in front of her eyes and saw that her fingers were wrapped in gauze.
"Are you feeling better?" asked Mu Li, who was sitting on the edge of her bed, in a dumb voice.
Nalan Jinxiu saw him sitting there neatly dressed, knowing that he had been guarding her, so she smiled at him and said, "It's the second half of the night, why don't you go to sleep for a while?"
"I'm worried about you. ”
"Fool, I'm just a cold that hasn't healed, it's fine. As soon as she finished speaking, she coughed again.
Mu Li got up and poured her a cup of water, and when he walked to the bed to hand it to her, he found that the water might be cold. He asked someone to bring boiling water again, and then poured one glass, probably because he thought it was too hot again, so he poured out half another cup and mixed some cold one in it.
Nalan Jinxiu took it and took a sip and found that the temperature was just right. Thinking of the toss he had just made, a burst of warmth rippled in his heart.
She has been a human being in two lives, and it is difficult for Zong Xuanyi to treat her sincerely in the first life. In this life, the third brother is a very stable person, and the care and love given to her is always at ease.
She had never been treated with such care. She looked at Mu Li and felt a little distressed in her heart. He is a cold person on the surface, but in fact, he is pure and kind in his heart.
He doesn't have any friends, but he has a special relationship with her, so he holds a true heart in front of her. Follow her without regrets, love what she loves, hate what she hates.
"Mu Li, thank you. ”
Mu Li's hand on his knee gradually bent, and he didn't know how to take the word "thank you". He felt that he was willing to be good to her and protect her.
"Do your fingers still hurt?" he squeezed for a long time, and then squeezed out such a sentence.
"It doesn't hurt anymore. Nalan Jinxiu said something against his will.
Mu Li probably knew that she was afraid that he would worry, but he didn't continue to dwell on this topic. just pulled the quilt on the net for her, and said in a low voice: "It's still early, you can sleep for a while." ”
"I'm a little hungry. ”
There was no food at this time, Mu Li was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"I don't have anything to eat now! ”
"Yes. ”
"Did you do it?"
"Hmm. ”
Nalan Jinxiu glanced at him suspiciously: "Will you?"
"You can try. ”
"Then you can cook me a bowl of porridge, a few days ago I saw that there was sugar cane in the room, put some when cooking. ”
Nalan Jinxiu actually just wanted to eat something sweet, because she was also bitter in her heart. The way others looked at her and what they said to her, she couldn't have been completely unconcerned.
What's more, now even her brother is blaming her. No matter how sad she was, there was no one to say. She remembers that when she cried when she was a child, Daddy would coax her with candy. Something sweet will make people happy.
After Mu left, she still couldn't sleep, so she simply wrapped herself in a big coat and unconsciously walked to the place where the Gu people were burned. The wailing sound is still in her ears, and those faces she can't remember clearly say that she is willing to sacrifice herself for the northern frontier!
The words are still in my ears, but the people are no longer there.
She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that it was all true. If you close your eyes, if you open your eyes, the world will become a surging sea of suffering, which is uncomfortable.
Her cold and hard-hearted heart is really dampening!
Ji Hongye also couldn't sleep, he didn't worry about anyone, but he was unreasonably melancholy in his heart, there were too many things in the world that he couldn't handle.
Nalan Jinxiu was in a daze at the land, and he was in a daze at her back. I don't know how long it took to see her suddenly cover her chest and bend down slightly.
Ji Hongye came back to his senses, walked slowly to her side, and asked calmly, "What's wrong with you?"
"It hurts. Nalan Jinxiu closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembled, she frowned and said, "My conscience hurts......"
Ji Hongye didn't expect such a cold-faced person to have such a fragile time. He slowly raised his hand, made a gesture of embrace, and took her into his arms.
He didn't have much thought in his heart, he just felt that this young man was really pitiful now. It is said that all living beings are suffering, and he wants to share some of her suffering. He didn't think about it, he just felt that people in the world should do their part for the world.
A familiar embrace, a familiar breath. Nalan Jinxiu tentatively reached out and put her arms around his waist, buried her cheek in his shoulder, and wept.
She could actually hold back her tears, but she couldn't help it when she saw him. It's not that she wants to be strong, she doesn't want to be cold, she just wants this embrace, this person, she doesn't have to grow by his side, she doesn't have to take on such a heavy responsibility.
Ji Hongye felt that the young man in front of him should be extremely sad, otherwise he wouldn't have cried so much. He gave him his arms, hoping to make him feel better.
No one is born to want to be an executioner, let alone such a thin and quiet teenager......
