Chapter 79: The Aftermath

Fear spreads like a contagious disease, and tens of thousands of people are like flies without heads, scurrying around, and people keep falling down, and they can't get up again.

In a hurry, the lantern was knocked to the ground and turned into a spark that spread rapidly. There was a crackling sound in the houses on both sides, black smoke billowed out, irritating the nostrils, and Tang Yi was choked and coughed continuously.

"You, are you alright?" The girl asked anxiously in her ear in a low voice.

"You can't die yet, listen, hug my neck, I'll carry you out!"

"How's that going to work! Your foot is not sprained, it will aggravate ......"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Tang Yi suddenly became hideous, he knew very well how terrible it was for a large number of people to gather together, even in later generations, stampedes happened from time to time, often with heavy casualties, not to mention in Daming. Stay a little longer, and the danger will be more!

"Don't rub it, you can still live if your foot is broken, if your head is gone, you will die!"

Although the girl was a little reluctant, she didn't dare to refute the angry Tang Yi, and obediently climbed onto his back, wrapping her hands tightly around Tang Yi's neck.

Although the girl is not heavy, Tang Yi sprained her ankle just now in order to save her, and it is difficult to walk, and it is difficult to carry another person on her back.

He gritted his teeth and observed the mess, everyone was running towards the outside of the City God Temple, and you pushed me and I pushed you in the square, and it became a pot of porridge, which was not the best route to escape for your life at all. As soon as he turned around, it happened to be the stage of the riddle, holding the stage with one hand, and supporting the girl's waist with the other, limping forward, with every step, there was a piercing pain from his feet, and within a few steps Tang Yi's forehead was a bean-sized cold sweat. The girl couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw Tang Yi's painful expression. The two of them have never known each other, and when they just guessed the lantern riddle, they were still squeezing him, and now they are in danger, and people are saving themselves regardless of their lives, if they don't know how to be grateful, they are simply beasts.

"I, I'd better come down!"

"Down? Even if I have one leg left, I'm stronger than your three-inch golden lotus! Tang Yi said angrily.

"You!" The girl is so angry that her cheeks are bulging, this guy is really a stinky mouth, and you deserve to be unlucky. She simply lay on Tang Yi's back and was so angry that she didn't speak.

At this time, Tang Yi had already gone around to the edge of the platform, fortunately there was a bamboo pole here, which was originally used to hang lanterns, Tang Yi held it in his hand, and with an extra crutch, the burden on his feet was lighter.

He did not run with the crowd, but along the wall, in the opposite direction. Along the way, he encountered people running around from time to time, Tang Yi had been hit several times, and whenever he was hit, he used a bamboo pole to support the ground or the corner of the wall, and would rather be injured than fall down.

For several months, Zamabu practiced hard kung fu every day, and the effect finally came out, Tang Yi's lower plate was very stable, and he miraculously survived the repeated tests, they stumbled and fled into the City God Temple, and went around to the back of the main hall, without anyone else, they could finally take a breath, Tang Yi's clothes were already soaked, and even the girl's clothes were wet with sweat.

I've never been in contact with a strange man, and now I get the smell of teenager's sweat, which is really ashamed. The more the girl thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, her head lowered, her fingers clenched tightly into her fists, showing the tension in her heart. Tang Yi was a little more relaxed, and asked casually: "Hey, if we escape, do you think Wang Shimao will thank me?" ”

"Nonsense, I'll give you 10,000 taels of gold!"

Really!

Just now, Tang Yi was still praying that this girl and Wang Shimao just knew each other, and most of them were old relatives and friends, but listening to the tone, the two of them definitely had a good relationship.

Tang Yi is not a pedantic person, but in this era, he pays attention to the words of his parents and matchmakers, if people have already made a marriage, it will not be good for him to mix with anyone. There is no grass at the end of the world, only the original love was stillborn, anyway, Wang Shimao's character and appearance are not bad, so it should be regarded as a beautiful marriage!

As a human being in two lives, Tang Yi can afford to let go, and the top priority is how to get out of the chaotic crowd.

He also heard it, and said that there were Japanese robbers who killed them.

Tang Yi did not believe this statement, Taicang was still far away from the island where the Japanese bandits gathered at sea, and there was no special target worth attacking.

Even if the Japanese invaders kill them, at most they will attack and disturb them, and no matter how wasteful the officers and soldiers in Taicang are, they will be able to block them for a while. The real thing is panic, and there is a saying that it is only fear itself that makes us afraid!

The out-of-control crowd is like a frenzied herd of buffaloes, capable of trampling lions into mud. Thinking of this, Tang Yi was even more worried, Shen Lin, Wang Shaozhou, Wang Shimao, and Cao Dazhang who came with him, they couldn't make a mistake.

Tang Yi frowned, thinking intently, Xiao Bai's face was covered with sweat and black ash, one by one, looking very embarrassed. Solemnity and humor appear in a person at the same time, which is very funny.

"Huh." The girl couldn't help but laugh.

"What, schadenfreude?"

"Hmph, I'm laughing at you for being stupid." The girl held her chin and said, "Haven't you heard, it's the Japanese who are coming, why don't you run quickly, you want to die?" ”

"Look for death, run around to die faster!" Tang Yi laughed: "Girl, your cleverness is only enough to guess riddles, and you are 108,000 miles away from major events." ”

Damn, being ridiculed again, this guy won't say anything nice. The girl's face was gloomy, her pink fists were clenched, she raised her little face unconvinced, and asked: "The Japanese robbers burned, killed and looted along the coast, and the bad things were done, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court were defeated repeatedly, and a bunch of wrecks were wasted, isn't it true, now that the Japanese have killed Taicang, you have a good look." "The girl patronized and forgot that the Japanese were killed, and she would be unlucky.

Tang Yi was speechless for a while, and his heart said that he was brainless, which was really a wise saying.

"My aunt and grandmother, if the Japanese invaders, they would have been in flames a long time ago, and all they saw was chaos caused by panic. Of course, it's also possible that they will change their makeup and mix into the crowd to make trouble, yes, just like you. ”

"Reveal it again!" The girl pouted angrily, today was her most unlucky day, she turned her head and didn't bother to look at Tang Yi. Just ran in a hurry, the headscarf was long gone, the long black hair hung down like waves, and the clothes on the body were also torn in a few places, but fortunately, there was no big problem, gently pulled the sleeves, hugged the shoulders, and shivered when the cold wind came.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the cold wind was still cold, and she had just sweated so much, and when she was blown by the wind, the girl couldn't help but sneeze. Sitting under the corridor of the main hall, it became more and more pitiful.

Pity and cherish jade is a man's good character, Tang Yi walked to the girl's side with a bamboo pole and stretched out his hand.

"Enough rest, let's go."

The girl lowered her head and slowly stretched out her little hand, Tang Yi grabbed it, and the two of them walked quickly through the main hall, until they reached the corner gate, Tang Yi lay on the wall, and after listening for a while, the noise outside seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

"Alright, let's get out."

Push the corner door open, an alley appeared in front of him, and from time to time there were frightened crowds running on the road, Tang Yi pulled the girl to walk forward cautiously, at this time the houses on both sides of the road were already on fire, and the tongue of fire flew wildly by the wind, so frightened that the girl grabbed Tang Yi's arm, pursed her mouth, and didn't dare to scream.

Tang Yi protected the girl with his arm, and at the same time his heart was hanging, under the chaos, there will be some bad people who will fish in troubled waters, if they do, they will be in trouble, regardless of the sharp pain in the ankle, walk quickly through the streets and alleys, and the more they walk, the more familiar they feel.

By the way, as soon as I entered Taicang, the rented yard was nearby, and after Tang Yi and his son moved back to the old house, the rented yard belonged to Wu Tiancheng, and it was more important to find a place to settle down as soon as possible. After having an idea, Tang Yi led the way in front, ran to the front of the small courtyard, and knocked on the door. After a while, a hoarse voice came from the crack in the door, "Who?" ”

"I'm not going to open the door yet!"

"Ah, it's the master!" Wu Tiancheng hurriedly opened the door, Tang Yi stepped forward, his body did not stand firm, he fell to the ground, and the girl also lay on his body.

"Master, this, this ......" Wu Tiancheng saw that the master had brought a woman over, and men and women could not kiss him, he spread his hands and stood stupidly and didn't know what to do.

Tang Yi rolled his eyes angrily, when did he pay attention to this. He endured the pain and got up, and scolded: "Seeing that your master is unlucky, I'm glad that I'm not happy, hurry up and prepare a bone-setting medicine and wine for me." Also, hurry up to my house, tell my father, and ask him to find a way to find Shen Lin and his cousin, don't make a mistake! ”

"Ming, understood!" Wu Tiancheng panicked, called two guys from the paper shop, and went separately. After a while, a doctor with a bone correction was invited to check Tang Yi's ankle, which was almost as swollen as a bucket.

"Fortunately, I didn't hurt my bones, remember to follow the medicine I prescribed, take it internally and externally, and it will recover in half a month."

This was the first good news tonight, and Tang Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh. Wu Tiancheng arranged for someone to decoct Tang Yi's medicine, and less than half an hour passed.

There was a big chaos outside the door, Tang Xiucai ran over with a large group of people, and when he saw Tang Yi sitting on the edge of the bed, a room full of medicinal smells, Tang Xiucai's face turned white with fright. Pounced, hugged his son, and kept shaking.

"Yi'er, are you alright?"
