69. The Salvation of Life

Zhao Tianyou dodged off his horse and walked towards the yellow-haired old dog.

The dog's tail wagged, obviously touching the wound, and he wanted to go forward and kiss Zhao Tianyou's fingers, but after taking two steps, he sat weakly on the ground. The dog is the closest friend of human beings, and it also regards human beings as its masters and dearest companions, and it can feel that Zhao Tianyou, the man with the knife, is not like a demon who has left to harvest human life.

"Uh......h Woo ......" the yellow dog's mouth let out a whining cry because of happiness and excitement, Zhao Tianyou squatted down and stroked its head back and forth, it was very interesting to quiet down and stretched out its tongue, licking Zhao Tianyou's forehead fingers. It then stood again, only to find that it had an arrow shaft on its hind legs, and there were dog hair and blood stains on it, which was probably bitten off by itself after being hit by the arrow.

It walked two steps and turned around, two steps and one turn, looking at Zhao Tianyou who followed it excitedly in his eyes, because this person could understand its meaning and twisted its tail happily, even if it was painful every time it wagged.

It was a courtyard enclosed by a wooden fence, the fence was covered with loofahs and creepers, the simple gate was hidden, and a few black-billed crows stood on the tree at the door, and they quacked a few times when they saw someone coming.

The old yellow dog got into the gate through the crack, looked back at Zhao Tianyou, and barked twice in a little hurry.

"Wang, Wang."

It seems to be urging, and it seems to be trying to say something.

"Squeak." Zhao Tianyou pushed open the gate, and through the dim night, the situation in the courtyard was unobstructed.

A path paved with bluestone slabs leads to the eaves of the porch, and there are piles of corpses lying on the left and right sides, each with a dozen corpses. After taking a few steps forward, you can see the dried blood stains on the bluestone slab, and more than a dozen black-billed birds are standing on the corpse, staring at Zhao Tianyou, an uninvited guest, quacking and chirping.

Zhao Tianyou already had some expectations for this, and when the fishy wind blew, he felt it, and he might see such a scene. But when he really walked into the yard, the indescribable feeling in his heart still made him very uncomfortable.

Fifty or sixty-year-old women, women in their thirties, children of seven or eight or even two or three years old, each corpse maintained their last expression, whether it was fear, anger, helplessness, or tragedy!

The internal organs that flowed from under the corpse, the stumps severed by the sharp scimitar, the neck that was almost cut off, the wide open eyes and closed lips, formed a picture that was better than purgatory.

"Wang, Wang!" The big yellow dog stopped beside several corpses, barked and sniffed with his nose, and stretched out his paws to pull at the already stiff corpses. It was the corpses of two old men and a young woman, intertwined in strange poses, as if they were fighting for something. The young corpse lay on its side, its arms supported until it died, and underneath it was a child's hat.

The big yellow dog seemed to recognize the hat, but the outstretched arms of the two old men were already stiff, and it was not something that the tired old dog could move, and the big yellow dog looked at Zhao Tianyou helplessly, with a desire for his help in his eyes.

Zhao Tianyou walked up to him, and gently moved the body of the white-haired old man on the top, the place where the arrow in his chest and abdomen had begun to swell, and it was about to enter the level of corruption, and it seemed that he had been dead for more than two days.

It took a lot of effort to move the young woman's arm, she seemed to be still holding her arm hard, for fear that her body would press against the hat below after her death, and when Zhao Tianyou completely moved the body, the big yellow dog pounced on it and let out a seeping scream.

"Woo, woo...... Woo......"

It stuck out its tongue with all its strength to add to the little face that was exposed, and behind the hat was the emaciated body of a two- or three-year-old child. The big yellow dog tried hard to add and longed for his little master to respond, and laughed as usual, and stretched out his little tender hands to caress his neck and head.

"Wang, Wang, Wang!" It's a little anxious, and it doesn't get a response for a long time, little master, don't sleep, this is a dangerous world! couldn't help but scream a few times, then turned his head and looked at Zhao Tianyou who was squatting on the side.

Zhao Tianyou's eyes were a little moist, and people who had seen life and death were rarely moved, but the behavior of this old dog made him feel admired. In particular, the wound on the hind leg of the old dog cracked, and a stream of sticky blood flowed out, which fell to the ground and became a black stain in the blink of an eye. The big yellow dog has reached the time when the oil has run out, and it still thinks about its little master, wants to get close to him, protect him, and stay by his side.

"Ahem!" A slight sound sounded, the big yellow dog pricked up his ears excitedly, wagged his tail vigorously, turned his head and grabbed Zhao Tianyou's trouser legs, and dragged him hard towards the corpse.

Zhao Tianyou suddenly understood, and hurriedly reached out to touch the child's neck, sure enough, there was a slight pulse and the body was also warm. It turned out that the big yellow dog had long known that his little master still had breath, but with its own strength, it could not save him from the pile of corpses.

I had to drag my injured body to the middle of the road for help, according to the current situation, the big yellow dog road has been waiting for a long time, but no one has passed until I saw Zhao Tianyou. It may not understand why some of the same human beings, like demons, killed all its friends and relatives, and did not even want to let it go, an ordinary big yellow dog.

Zhao Tianyou picked up the child's body, touched the body and was fine, it was still very warm and there was no fever, and there was no bleeding trauma, but because of fright or other reasons, he fell into a coma for a long time.

Zhao Tianyou picked up the child, rushed into the hall, found a small mattress to put on the table, found a bowl of warm water, and smeared it on the child's lips with chopsticks. Without two children's survival instincts being activated, they opened their dry lips slightly, and looked for their mother's **** up and down.

Zhao Tianyou shook his head, now there are big men around him, especially the few men who came in closely, they have been frightened by the tragic situation in the courtyard, and they can't see which one has experience in taking children.

The guide blinked and said, "General, I'll take the child back to Shanghang, I can't save it if I stay here, and I'm starving to death." ”

Zhao Tianyou glanced at him, asked his subordinates to take out ten taels of silver and handed it to the guide, and instructed: "The child will please leave it to you, you must take good care of it, and when the matter is here, I will take another thirty taels of silver to Shanghang to see you."

In addition, I informed General Du to take precautions and be vigilant, and if there is an accident, please ask them to evacuate first, and I will go to find them. ”

"Don't worry, General, my mother-in-law has raised two children, there is absolutely no problem, then I will rush back overnight, I will be there in a while!" The guide pulled a piece of cloth, wrapped the child and put it on his chest, and said goodbye to Zhao Tianyou and the others.

The big yellow dog watched the little master being taken away very quietly, without barking, just nesting at Zhao Tianyou's feet, closing his eyes very happily and never opening them again.
