Chapter 35: The Living Bodhisattva
Several people supported each other to continue to hurry, the road behind them was too bumpy, and the road ahead must be very rugged, only the perseverance and support between the companions was the greatest strength support. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I walked more than ten miles of mountain roads with a smile and came to the avenue, this road will definitely be the main road for the Japanese army to attack in the future, and it would be great if it was destroyed now, but a few people were exhausted and could not do anything.
Take a break, drink water, adjust and adjust, and walk ten miles along the avenue to enter the city, Zhang Ersil and Wu Ting were overjoyed, and accidentally saw the grief of Liao Changsheng and A Feng, so they put away their happy emotions and walked to the front to be relieved.
"Let's keep going! Fight to get out of the city and fight the villagers before it gets dark! Wu Ting stood up and said.
After walking for about half a mile, I saw a desolate scene, the village next to the road only stood with cold houses, the crops in the fields were not managed, some were dried up, some grew of different heights, it was a scene of autumn harvest full of vitality, which looked very ugly.
Without the shouts of men, without the sound of women's weaving feet, without the sound of firewood for cooking, where can you see the smoke curling up? No one is looking at the land, and all this can only be blamed on the ruthless war.
A group of large families, young and old, passed by Liao Changsheng and them, looking in a hurry, and they didn't have time to say a few words to Wu Ting and them, in the eyes of this family, they were just passers-by who were eager to flee for their lives.
Wu Ting walked over to a young woman and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
The young woman shook her head, with a reluctant expression, and said, "As I said, the devil is coming, let's run quickly!" ”
"Where are you going?" Wu Ting continued to ask.
"Of course it's going to the city, many people have already run away, it's important to save your life!"
"Can there be so many people in the city?"
"It's okay, we used to do business in the city, we have a house, it's not big, but we can live, I don't know about other people." When the woman had finished speaking, she hastened to follow.
After hearing this, Wu Ting was not only emotional, but also a little worried, how to settle such a large-scale population migration? This will make it more difficult to defend the city in the war of resistance.
I can't care so much about it first, those are the affairs of the local government, I am a soldier, in addition to the things of the war, I can only do my best, a few people continue to hurry, and occasionally there will be a lot of passers-by walking by.
When I arrived at a place with a dense bamboo forest, I stopped to cool off, and saw a woman dressed as a Taoist priest set up a short stool and a small table here, and a white flag was erected next to it, and the three big characters on the white flag were clearly visible: Heaven is destined!
Wu Ting has seen these warlocks, many of them are nonsense, for a scholar who has stayed abroad, he doesn't believe this set at all, but what makes Wu Ting feel strange is that everyone is busy running for their lives, why is she still sitting there calmly, showing a virtuous appearance, enjoying a fresh breeze.
Wu Ting couldn't help but move forward and asked, "This master, the devil is coming, why don't you find a place to hide?" ”
The Taoist priest opened one eye and said with satisfaction, "The poor Dao originally came from the sky, and after a while, he will naturally return to the sky, what to hide, the little woman looks extraordinary, can you let the poor Dao count a hexagram?" ”
Wu Ting can be said to have a clear understanding of this kind of charlatan's tricks, and she despises it in her heart, but out of the quality of a soldier to protect the public, she didn't say anything too ugly, "No need, thank you!" ”
The Taoist priest laughed, and when Wu Ting retreated, she heard a sentence, "I hope this master will count a hexagram for me!" From Liao Changsheng's mouth, Liao Changsheng knew that everything in this world had cause and effect, this was what Su Maosheng told him, and he desperately wanted to know why his fate was so bumpy? Even if it's an answer from the mouth of a fortune teller.
At this time, Wu Ting was a little excited, and hurriedly dissuaded Liao Changsheng, "Don't listen to her, it's all nonsense" and I don't know why I was in a hurry for no reason, isn't it a fate? In fact, Wu Ting has a knot in her heart, she doesn't want to untie that knot too early, because this war has completely changed her fate, even if the fortune-telling nonsense will bring her more or less psychological pressure, he doesn't want to go to the battlefield with pressure to kill devils.
An old man also passed by Liao Changsheng with some simple daily necessities, and said by the way, "Young man, listen to it, she is very accurate, and she is called a living bodhisattva!" ”
Wu Ting looked at the Taoist priest in surprise again, she was still smiling, as if she had seen through everyone's hearts.
"Two fools, help me over!" Liao Changsheng propped up his injured body, Ah Feng wiped away some tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and helped Liao Changsheng to sit in front of the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest showed an approachable smile, looked at Liao Changsheng's face, and said, "Heaven is full, the eyes are clear and spiritual, the ears are close to the brain, the nose is plump, the mouth is four characters, the earth pavilion is round, the image of great wealth and nobility, and the face of the general is beautiful" Before he finished speaking, he sighed, "It's a pity, it's a pity!" ”
Liao Changsheng, who was looking forward to it, heard the words "It's a pity" in the back, and fell into a dull mood, thinking forget it, he was originally a picked up child, and it was good to be able to live until now, and when he was about to leave, Ah Feng asked more, "Master, what's a pity?" Can you give me some pointers? ”
"The world is hot and cold, and creation makes people!" The Taoist priest looked at Liao Changsheng again, "The heroes of the troubled times came out of the wilderness, and they were born in this mountain by fate, if you ask where the frightened souls are?" History is famous all over the world! ”
The words fluctuated and buried so deep that it was impossible to understand for a while, and the Living Bodhisattva continued to ask, "Young man, what else do you want to know?" ”
Liao Changsheng's first thought was when will this cruel war end? I wanted to get some hope and comfort from the Taoist priest's mouth, and asked, "Will China defeat Japan and drive them out of China?" ”
"The way of the world is nothing but the difference between good and evil, self-inflicted, not to live, the trend of the times!"
After listening to the Taoist priest's words, Liao Changsheng was a little excited and secretly happy, all his efforts would not be in vain, but Wu Ting was not surprised at all, because she analyzed and reported real-time at home and abroad from a professional military perspective, it is not difficult to analyze that such a large-scale invasion by the Japanese army has been very weak in major battlefields, coupled with the awakening of the domestic people, the soldiers fought bravely to resist the war and international support, the defeat of the Japanese army is inevitable, the only thing that makes Wu Ting distressed is how many years will the war that has clearly been divided into results struggle? How many people and living beings have been killed? I couldn't help but shed two tears.
"What is my fate?" Liao Changsheng then asked.
"Everything is in the verse just now, let's understand it for yourself!"
"What about my background?" This is a secret of Yun Heng hidden in Liao Changsheng's heart, hearing Liao Changsheng ask like this, Jin Pengfei also came closer, who was so ruthless to give up these two hard-working children.
The fortune teller smiled, this smile seemed a little helpless, could it be that she really saw something? Or do you not know anything? After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "The mystery of your life experience is the catastrophe of your life, and the secret of heaven must not be revealed, take care!" After the fortune teller finished speaking, he put away the flag, glanced at Liao Changsheng and Jin Pengfei and left.
Although he couldn't figure it out, the words of the Living Bodhisattva were not nonsense, they were completely unreasonable, at least they gave Liao Changsheng a little relief, and his own life experience, what calamity should be put aside, the most important thing now is to hurry to see how the villagers are?
The fortune-telling was delayed for a while, the sky was getting dark, and I had to hurry by sporadic dots and moonlight, and the firewood candlelight slowly came into view, it must be not far from the county seat, and a few people accelerated their pace, caught up, and maybe they could have dinner with the villagers.
Wu Ting's worried question really came, what should the people scattered outside the county town do? If the Japanese called, they would be the first to be consumed by bullets and artillery fire, so what was the use of giving up everything to flee for their lives in exchange for death? The resettlement of residents has become a problem on the mind, and it is also the biggest problem that needs to be solved urgently.
