Chapter 11 Loneliness Comes Suddenly

Li Tianzhao's voice of angrily asking the sky spread far away.

The ten battles who led the way stopped and turned back, silent for a while, and continued to move along the road.

With the sword at his side, the battle seal will mark the life of a warrior.

Whatever a person has done, the memories in the war seal will be obtained by the Warrior King.

Therefore, what is said to the sword is the sword oath.

Then, with the sword by his side, he couldn't do anything disloyal to King Wu in the first place.

Many years ago, this warrior thought the same thing.

But the countless realities that time has made him see is that as long as he doesn't swear a sword oath to the sword, even if he is guilty, he has never been punished by the Martial King.

The sound spread far away.

The mountain birds flew in fright, and the timid birds threw down a lump of dark green when they flapped their wings.

It happened to fall on the axe of a woodcutter.

The axe slashed into the tree, and the back of the axe suddenly had more warmth, and then, under the watchful eye of the woodcutter, it slid to the ground.

The woodcutter sighed and muttered to himself, "It's a new person again." ”

In the village, a child was drawing a grid on the ground, startled by the roar, and looked fixedly, waited for a while, but was silent again, so he turned his head and asked the busy village woman.

"Mother, who is it? ”

"It's okay, nine out of nine are the new Hundred Battle Commanders, and they will go crazy for a while when they first come, and they will be fine in a few days. The calmness of the village woman infected the child, so she continued to draw the lattice, jumping happily.

The sound travels farther and farther away, and finally disappears completely into invisibility.

Mountains are still mountains, forests are still forests, and the people in the village continue to do what they do.

After Li Tianzhao finished yelling, his emotions calmed down a little, and he found that he was still here, and he had to continue to be the leader of a hundred battles after yelling.

"Sue me! We must sue you!" Li Tianzhao made up his mind that things were so strange that there must be something strange, and he absolutely could not stop there.

But...... He doesn't even know the basis of his merits now, how can he file a complaint?

Tell him to leave immediately?

The complaint did not inform him of the basis for the merit reward?

That's not what he's going to sue!

At this moment, he also found that the other party's series of operations were simply 'thoughtful', so that he could only wait for the merit documents to be delivered first.

But when exactly will it come?

Li Tianzhao was angry and irritable, guessing all kinds of nonsense, but there was no conclusion at all.

Suddenly, a child ran in from outside, wearing open crotch pants, snot dripping down, big eyes blinking, and said in a milky voice: "Are you a new hundred generals?"

“...... Be. Li Tianzhao suppressed the irritability in his heart, remembered his duties, and now governed Baishan Town, with a total of eighteen villages. "What's wrong?"

"Yes, yes, my mother asked me to call the mayor for help, something is wrong with our family!" After the child finished speaking, he turned around and ran, and after a few steps, he turned back to Li Tianzhao and urged: "Hurry up, mayor!

Li Tianzhao didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran with the child on the mountain road.

Don't look at the kid's small size, but he runs very fast on the narrow mountain path, and doesn't care about the steep slope on the side.

After running for more than three miles, Li Tianzhao saw a house, and the child ran in and shouted: "A hundred battles are coming!

Li Tianzhao looked over and saw that on the edge of the yard, the shelf for drying corn fell out at one end, and a young woman grabbed the one that had not fallen, sat on the ground, and kicked the stones on the edge of the yard with her feet, her head and face were flushed, and the corn on the shelf was piled up at the other end, as if she would be taken down at any time.

Li Tianzhao hurriedly stepped forward and helped pull up the shelf, the village woman finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she was tired enough, so she sat on the ground and rested, and the child ran to her side to help her, so she heard her say: "I'll rest, I'll rest......

Li Tianzhao set up the shelf, frowned and asked the woman, "Don't you die?"

"How can we have a man here? all year round, a month back for the New Year, and the rest of the time they are outside. The village woman looked at the corn on the shelf and wiped the sweat from her face with her sleeve. "These will be handed over this year, can you let go?"

"Isn't there a lot of corn? As for putting your life on the line?" Li Tianzhao was still puzzled, and the village woman sighed and said, "No matter how much you can't afford to hand in!"

"Isn't it Sancheng?" Li Tianzhao secretly felt strange, shouldn't it be the same everywhere?

The village woman sighed and complained: "In the past, Baishan Town relied on picking mountain spirit grass to make a living, but at that time it was rich! The mountain spirit grass has high merits, and the above likes it, but it is afraid that someone will grow food to be comfortable, so they will provide us with food from outside, and impose heavy taxes on the grain they grow. Thirty percent of the medicinal materials and seventy percent of the grain were handed in, and the fool knew that he should go to collect the medicine. ”

Li Tianzhao understood the reason, so it made sense. "There is food to ensure logistics, and it is good to collect medicine. ”

"At that time, it was good, but later there were fewer and fewer medicines, and I couldn't survive by collecting medicines, so I could only grow food. I have reflected it many times, and the previous hundred generals have also said it for us, and the city chief always said that everyone should wait, and there will be mountain spirit grass picking. The mayor of the city will say, just come and see, there is still a mountain spirit grass on the mountain! No one has seen it for several years! The big guy can't live, and the man can only go outside, but everyone who has made some merit has applied to move out, and now the rest is not able to leave. ”

Li Tianzhao understands that this place has long entered a period of decay, so the question is, how many people are left now?

"How many people are there in the eighteen villages of Baishan Town now?"

The village woman burst into laughter, with a strong smile in her eyes, and felt that the new commander in front of her really didn't know the situation when she first came, and she was stupidly cute, so she said: "What eighteen villages! A few years ago, there was only one title left, and now there are only nine households left, and one household can't make up eighteen villages even if it is counted as one village!"

God......

Li Tianzhao suddenly remembered the box left by the Hundred Battle Commander who left, no wonder the information of the Eighteen Villages was all packed in such a box.

It turned out that the eighteen villages had long been reduced to titles!

There are ten village captains under the hands of the hundred battle chiefs, even if they are all like Wangtian Village, at least there are a few soldiers in each village team, a few young people, a few teenagers and girls, and there are always more than a dozen people who are transferred from abroad, and there are more than 100 people in the ten teams.

What about him?

Not to mention the head of the hundred battles, there are a total of nine households under the jurisdiction, and they are all trying to move away!

Perhaps, in two or three years, all the people in this place will be gone.

When the time comes, he will be the only one left to be with the mountains.

Li Tianzhao soon discovered that it was wrong for him to think so!

Because in the fourth month of his coming, a dozen men who had gone out of the village returned.

They fought collectively, made meritorious deeds, and were allowed to move out of all nine families.

Everyone in the family happily ran to Li Tianzhao to get their identity certificates, and then made an appointment to go down the mountain and leave together.

Two or three years?

It didn't take that long at all, just four months, and the last nine families were clean.

Baishan Town, eighteen villages, there is only one hundred generals left in Li Tianzhao.

"What is there to guard in this place! Hunt wild boars!" When Li Tianzhao was angry, he roared at the mountains.

The merit papers haven't been delivered yet, and he can't help but sue if he wants to.

But in such a place, there are patches of mountains and forests across the border with the enemy, and there are no good things here, so the enemy's brain is broken, so he will work tirelessly to climb over the mountains and come from here!

What is this place?

Li Tianzhao felt that he couldn't continue to waste his time here, so he wrote a letter and personally traveled more than 100 miles to send it to the city.

Each time, the mayor said that he would apply upwards, but there was no response.

When Li Tianzhao went for the third time, he was told that he didn't need to go anymore, it was useless to go, and that if the establishment of Baishan Town was canceled, there would be one less ration of supplies, and the mayor of the city would be guilty of ineffective jurisdiction and the demise of the entire town.

The girl saw that Li Tianzhao was indignant, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't make trouble! I told you this with good intentions, and I would be miserable if the city chief knew about me." Besides, what can you do? If you push the mayor of the city into a hurry, he will put the matter on your head, saying that if you come, Baishan Town will be gone, and he will not escape the responsibility, and you will have to bear the main responsibility, and in the end, he will not transfer you to another border, and he will have to punish you for guarding for several more years?"

"Of course I won't bother you! The city mayor wants merit and is afraid of taking responsibility, but the situation in Baishan Town is not anyone's fault, the mountain spirit grass is gone, and the people in the mountain village will have to leave sooner or later, why can't they truthfully report and explain?"

"What is truthful? Could it be that the ten thousand battle generals are invited to come to Baishan Town in their busy schedules and run all over the mountains to verify whether there is any mountain spirit grass? Is it truthful, in the final analysis, it is not all dependent on layers of reports? You say yours, the city chief says his, it is impossible for the people above to run down to see, what is the use of sending someone to come? The benefits given by the city chief, do you give them? Why should people truthfully reflect for you, a hundred battle generals, and let the city chief's benefits go, and offend a thousand war generals? Who would do this stupid thing? After all, you want to keep a few years less and suffer less, but in the end you have to go elsewhere for more years. You say you're just making things worse, can that be a good thing?"

Li Tianzhao wondered if this girl was assigned by the city mayor's faction, but seeing the cautious appearance of the girl whispering this and looking around, it didn't look like it.

But the most important thing is that he found that there was no way to refute it, just like his situation at the moment, he hadn't even gotten the merit papers.

The world is not what he imagined, should he blindly understand the things in the world according to his imagination, or should he think calmly and try to re-understand these things?

"Why did you help me?" Li Tianzhao felt that he should choose the latter, he didn't want to be so passive and futile all the time, he wanted to come out and use a truly meaningful way.

"You're good-looking, and you look like. The girl smiled, saw someone coming, quickly changed her usual solemn appearance, pretended to have just finished pouring him tea, and left.

Li Tianzhao also got up and said goodbye.

On the way back, he wondered what was the real way for him to break free from the current quagmire.

Trouble, as the girl's persuasion, is tantamount to putting him and the mayor on the opposite side of the conflict, how can he win?

Li Tianzhao thought about this, and was upset for a while.

He has always felt that the future should be like what his parents mentioned, to be a soldier and to bravely kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

The future he originally envisioned was to continue to kill enemies and make meritorious contributions until he stepped into the Martial King Palace and resurrected his parents.

But the reality is not like this, if he wants to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, he must first get rid of the current situation.

Otherwise, he would have to stay with the mountains.

Can he listen to the birds singing and watch the stream flow here?

If you look at it like that, you won't be able to enter the Martial King Hall for a hundred years!

When he got old, he was unlucky enough to have amnesia or something, and he couldn't even remember what his parents looked like, and he couldn't resurrect his parents when he was sent to the Wuwang Palace!

Li Tianzhao thought about this, while swinging his sword to practice moves, and moved away in the mountains and forests at will.

In the past, he used to patrol the eighteen villages of nine households every day, but now he doesn't even have to do this.

Practicing like this, moving away, I looked up coldly and saw the woodcutter cutting down trees there.

The woodcutter is a strange man, who often appears out of nowhere and disappears suddenly.

He doesn't talk much, and he is very focused when he cuts down trees.

Li Tianzhao went over, and when he watched the woodcutter cut down a tree, he asked him curiously: "I have long wondered, what are you doing with cutting so many trees?"
