Chapter 256: Fortunately
The people had not reacted at first, but they had been silenced by the woman's screams, thinking that something serious was happening ahead, so they all hesitated in place, stretched their necks to look, and the woman pushed the people around her, stumbled out, screaming and calling for whose name.
"Suzae River!" Someone shouted.
The majestic Yangtze River, one of the best in this big week, everyone has an impression when the name is spoken, and Wang Chengnan's heart is even tighter.
I saw those ghost walkers walking forward without pause, and the people walking in front stepped into the water step by step, at this time, the people around Wang Chengnan suddenly realized, and one by one they showed panicked expressions and began to pull their legs and run forward, one hand at a time stretched out from all directions to push Wang Chengnan and Rong Li'er.
Wang Chengnan took Rong Lian'er into his arms and dispersed to the edge of the crowd with all his might. Countless people's faces passed by them, countless expressions, countless pains surging up, they shouted loudly the names of their loved ones, fathers, children, husbands and wives, hoarse, as if they had been sent to the bank of the Sansheng River, but regretted not letting their relatives go into the underworld.
Wang Chengnan could barely stand still, and was carried by the crowd to stagger, but fortunately, no one cared about them in the pain, and ran towards the Suzhi River without stopping.
A terrible scream erupted in front of him, and Wang Chengnan reluctantly looked up to see that the woman who ran out first had already waded into the water.
"Yuanyuan!" She almost vomited her heart and lungs and shouted, "Yuanyuan! Come back to my mother! Come back here! Mother's Yuanyuan------! ”
She clutched her hands in the water, her eyes full of panic. Su Zhi Jiang Chao slapped her on the shore, slapped her head and covered her face, and her whole body was soaked in an instant, and the whole person was like a withered grass, dry, wet, gray, yellow and dull plant, seeing that it was about to give birth to insects, her heart was eaten up little by little, and blood was dripping down empty.
Before she could go deeper into the water to find her child, the crowd of ghosts following behind her had already pressed up, like countless boulders, and the woman could not even make a sound, and was trampled into the water, and disappeared.
She may have been able to reunite with her children.
A large number of people in the back pulled each other on the bank of the river, and soon a large number of them were pulled closer to the river, and some did not dare to go into the water, but just stood on the bank and cried.
The mournful cry gathered on the shore and spread far away, Wang Chengnan went to cover Rong Li'er's expression, and lowered his head to see Rong Li'er looking at the miserable beings in front of him without blinking.
"Don't look at it," Wang Chengnan said, "Don't look at these." ”
Rong Li'er reached out and grabbed her hand softly, looked at it for a while, blinked slowly, and said softly, "What made them like this?" ”
She raised her head and looked at Wang Chengnan, with emotions in her eyes that Wang Chengnan couldn't understand, and said, "Are all Da Zhou people like this?" ”
Wang Chengnan said: "This is not something that is under our control, and it is not something that we can understand. She took Rong Li'er to the side and said, "Let's stay away."
They didn't walk a few steps, and soon they heard the sound of horses' hooves trampling from far and near, the sound was so loud that it covered the sound of the waves flowing in the river, and the ground shook, Rong Li'er subconsciously shrank to her side, and the two of them raised their heads at the same time to find the direction from which the sound came.
The people present were more or less shocked by the sound of horses' hooves, and someone in front of them shouted loudly: "It's Feng Ziqi!" It's the army, it's General Feng's team! ”
"It's General Feng!"
"Are you here to save people?! Is the general here to save us? ”
Wang Chengnan's eyes widened, the sand on the opposite side of the river bank shook and flew, and the cavalry showed their figures in rows, the horses neighed, and the battle flags were flying, and because of the terrain, Wang Chengnan could see that it was Feng Xiwen who was at the forefront.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, just from the momentum of the leader riding the horse, and the dress that was passed down by the people, Wang Chengnan could roughly guess the identity of the leader.
Except for Feng Xiwen, no one dared to play the Feng Ziqi anymore.
The frightened crowd seemed to have the backbone of their hearts, and quieted down a little, and looked eagerly at the stopped army on the opposite side, although everyone did not know how the opposing troops were going to cross the wide river to the opposite side to stop the demons, but they still stopped.
Rong Li'er stood on tiptoe and looked at it for a while, and said softly, "Will they come?" ”
Wang Chengnan didn't speak, a group of people came out of the army on the opposite side, Wang Chengnan couldn't see the specific situation on the other side clearly, Wang Chengnan was stunned, and then saw what the soldiers on the opposite side were holding high in their hands, and they jumped into the Suzai River one by one!
Rong Li'er saw the soldier jumping down, covered his mouth, it has not rained recently, but the speed of the river still does not seem to be slow, and as soon as the person goes, he is rushed forward.
Wang Chengnan saw through the crowd that was scattered from time to time, and saw vaguely that the soldiers seemed to be pulling something behind them, and the soldiers jumped down in an orderly manner, and were pulled by the rope behind them in the turbulent river, so they walked towards the opposite bank with difficulty.
Rows and rows of soldiers built up a human wall, breaking through the river, and to the astonishment, the ranks that were floating in the river did not say a word, and those unstoppable ghosts gradually retreated.
Wang Chengnan's eyes widened in disbelief after seeing it clearly, and he said in a low voice: "They actually came back." ”
The family members who had chased after them retreated, and the ghostly people hesitated to retreat to the bank of the river, the water overflowing their waists, the waves lapping against the mortal flesh, and just opposite them, the silent soldiers raised a hand, and the river was shaken by the river, the river was cold, but they did not have the slightest intention of retreating.
Wang Chengnan's brows furrowed, and he said to himself, "What are they holding in their hands?" ”
The soldiers could no longer move forward, and the soldiers in the front row still had to rely on the water to float in the water, only relying on the ups and downs of the river waves, exposing their heads, and then going forward, the whole person was immersed, and they really had to swim.
The sound of the horse's hooves behind him was only late at this moment, and the team rushed from behind Wang Chengnan and them, looking like the soldiers in Feng Xiwen's hands, shouting loudly to let everyone disperse, the horses' hooves kept moving forward, raising dust, Wang Chengnan immediately reached out to cover Rong Li'er's face and block the dust for her.
Rong Li'er coughed lowly, and the team that arrived moved extremely quickly and neatly, and after dismounting, they began to drag the ghost walkers on the bank of the river to the shore.
Soon, the ghost-walkers were like uncontrollable dolls, unresponsive, and no longer moving forward, and were honestly dragged to the shore.
So the people around who were still normal surrounded the soldiers and the ghosts, and there were joyful cries, mixed with constant words of gratitude and indescribable words, with joy and fear for the rest of their lives.
saved.
The general broke out of the crowd with all his strength, turned over his horse, and shouted: "We are General Feng's soldiers!" I'm here to help you! ”
Sure enough, Wang Chengnan's eyebrows moved, Feng Xiwen's soldiers were full of gangsterism, compared to the regular army, the soldiers under his command, whether they were fierce or desperate, were more like vicious bandits dug from somewhere.
The general of the crowd sighed in gratification, and everyone spoke in support, and the general continued: "Not anyone here is allowed to go!" Follow our team! ------ to the south! ”
The people shouted for salvation with a cry of joy, without regard to the words of the general, whose unequivocal and unhesitating command alone was enough to convince people that they were capable and determined to lead them to a solution to their calamity.
Wang Chengnan frowned at the ecstatic faces of the crowd around him, and subconsciously wanted to retreat.
She passed by the mysterious man, and was always suspicious of unwarranted help.
As soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty and soldiers of the imperial court, it is natural for them to save the people from fire and water.
But...... Wang Chengnan thought hesitantly in his heart, but ......
But if it's so simple, then why did the mysterious people send them to such a ghost team?
Or did the mysterious man really just want to save them, thinking too much about himself?
The general, who was on his horse, leaned over and said something to the soldiers beside him, and immediately a group of soldiers trotted and surrounded them.
"As long as you follow us, we will keep you safe, and then heal your family, so that you can go home one by one!"
Is it protection, or is it ......
"Sister, that's good." Rong Li'er raised her face and said to her innocently: "Fortunately, there is still General Feng." Fortunately, the court still remembers us. ”
Wang Chengnan immediately had nothing to say.
Yes, the imperial court has not been slow to move as people speculated before, it is to abandon these people who have lost their minds and destroyed their families, the imperial court may be just discussing countermeasures, or maybe the order has already been ordered, but they just don't know.
How could the huge Zhou Dynasty shrink because of such a thing and let its people fend for themselves?
The indescribable pimple in Wang Chengnan's heart gradually melted away in Rong Li'er's smiling face.
Maybe that mysterious person has other purposes, but General Feng, the hot red man next to the empress, must be here to help them.
If even the soldiers of the Great Zhou can't help them, what should these people of the Great Zhou who have lost their minds for no reason, encountered flying disasters, and lost their land and relatives?
Wang Chengnan also showed a relieved smile, nodded lightly and said, "Yes, fortunately, they are still there." ”
