Chapter 27: Dream of the Great Good Man
In a disaster year, it is not safe.
The group of people in the ark who walked all the way to Linsu along the official road, and just as they were about to reach their destination, they were surrounded by a group of bandits with fierce appearances and muscles. Scarface, the leader, shook the machete in his hand and laughed
"Oh! A flock of fat sheep delivered to the door. ”
Their vanguard did not carry much luggage on them, and they were forcibly divided into two teams by Shanshi. The days of the Ark and their group were even more difficult. I didn't have much dry food with me, and I didn't have much left by this time. I still have some silver on my body, and I don't know if I can temporarily settle down in Linsu.
Several big men who were originally strong were all tortured by hunger and lost weight twice.
"I'll give you two options. The first! Keep all the valuable stuff on you! The second! It's to leave yourselves to work for your brothers! ”
Scarface's proposal caused an uproar among everyone. If you don't have money, you can't live in Linsu. But let them fall into the grass, naturally they are unwilling.
"I'll give you five seconds, five, four, three......"
The people in the team were frightened by the countdown and handed over all the few coins they had. Scarface gave a look to the little brother next to him to go up and count.
"How much?"
"Twenty bucks in total?"
Scarface frowned, and said displeasedly, "That's it? If you don't want to stay, don't stay. ”
The understatement made Ark feel bad, and his master Hong Dacheng also felt the same. Hong Dacheng moved his steps silently, blocking the ark behind him.
It didn't take long for them to hear Scarface's younger brother laughing, brandishing a machete at the villagers who had no backhand.
Exclamations, blunt slashing of knife contact, warm blood gushing out, staining the already wet ground.
"Run!"
Hong Dacheng pulled the ark and ran for his life in the direction that no one was surrounding.
"Oh?" Scarface flicked his machete and looked playfully at Hong Dacheng and Fang Zhou who were fleeing, "Want to run?" Catch up, chop. ”
Hong Dacheng and Fang Zhou, who had not been able to eat for a few days, did not run particularly fast, and they ran out of breath after running a distance. It didn't take long for him to be chased by Scarface's younger brother.
Two men came, both with machetes in their hands.
At this distance, Scarface and the villagers are no longer visible. Hong Dacheng gasped and blocked the ark behind him again.
"Run!"
On this day and night, Li Jiangwei, who was in Yuanning, suddenly opened her eyes.
In order not to let her spirit affect the arrangement of the second day, Li Jiangwei went to bed very early. She still remembered that after Yu Yongyi asked for the futon from the guy, she never left the room.
However, now, there is only a futon on the ground, and there is no figure of Yu Yongyi. At this moment, Li Jiangwei heard a flute sound.
There was no light in the house, and the light in the room depended only on the moon hanging high outside. On a night like this, there is an unusual blue color, as if a blue filter has been added.
The strange and strange scene did not make Li Jiangwei feel afraid.
"Dreams?" Li Jiangwei muttered softly, put on her clothes and shoes, and walked to the window. As soon as I touched the window, the window and the wall rippled.
Even Li Jiangwei, who is used to seeing peculiarities, can't help frowning in the face of this strange wave.
Li Jiangwei hesitated, and finally chose to go back to bed and fall asleep.
When the information is incomplete, don't die trying to find something beyond what is currently known.
This is a phrase that circulates in the game.
Li Jiangwei felt that this sentence was very right, so she chose not to die.
Early the next morning, Li Jiangwei opened her eyes again and saw the back of Yu Yongyi lying on the ground.
That weird dark blue filter, all faded and disappeared without a trace. It was as if last night's experience was just a dream of my own, a dream with a memory deep enough to recall everything.
"What's wrong?" Yu Yongyi, who was packing his bags, asked with concern: "You are not quite right." ”
"I heard the flute last night."
"Flute?"
Li Jiangwei nodded and said, "I don't know if I really heard it, or if I heard it in a dream." ”
"Looks like you're still too tired. Otherwise, how could you dream of such a strange thing? Yu Yongyi smiled: "Do you want to rest for a while?" It's too late to see it later. ”
"How tired can I be when I'm on the road and don't drive?" Li Jiangwei smiled at him, "Let's go see Fan Gang." By the way, see how the child is recovering. Then go and see the rich merchant. ”
"It's fine."
The child was fine, and the fever subsided overnight, so Chu Yongyi and the others let go out with their hearts.
The news of the arrival of the wealthy merchants in Linsu soon spread throughout Yuanning, and before the soup kitchen shed was erected, many refugees flocked to it. They seemed to have expected that before the shed was erected, they arranged for people to stand guard on the side and direct the victims to line up.
Not far from the porridge shed there is another shed, and the words "aid station" hang outside the shed. In this aid station, Li Jiangwei actually saw the doctor yesterday.
The doctor also noticed Li Jiangwei and Yu Yongyi, and greeted them cordially.
"Two, how is the child doing?"
"The fever is gone." Li Jiangwei replied: "Thanks to the doctor's help. ”
"Anyway, it's the two who are kind." After that, the doctor happily pointed to the shed and said, "When I heard people say that Master Meng of Linsu is a great good person, I also said that they are too exaggerated. When I saw it today, I realized that I was short-sighted. ”
"Where does this begin?"
"Yesterday I came back from the two of you, and the descendants of this dream master came to me. Hopefully I will help these victims. If they have a pain or something, they can help take a look, and all the expenses will be borne by Master Meng. Not only me, but also the famous doctors in the city have been searched by Master Meng. ”
"It's just a pity." Speaking of this, the doctor sighed softly, "It's Master Meng's steward who came back this time, and it's a pity that I didn't see this great good man with my own eyes." Maybe this dream master is in charge of the overall situation in Linsu...... I heard that there are many more victims in Linsu than this. ”
Li Jiangwei and Chu Yongyi glanced at each other and didn't say much.
"The two of you came here to see Master Meng?"
Li Jiangwei shook her head, her face bitter: "Lang Jun and I are looking for relatives." Originally, our husband and wife were doing business in Xiangqu, and when we heard the news of the flooding of the Luojiang River, we were really relieved. When I heard that there was a porridge shack here, I wondered if I would have the opportunity to meet my relatives here. ”
"I see." The doctor comforted: "Master Wang and Mrs. Ji are both good people, and your family will definitely be auspicious!" ”
"I hope so."
"Yesterday, I heard the steward of Mengfu mention that he wanted to count the refugees who defected to Yuanning."
"Really?"
"I heard them say that Linsu has already done this. However, there are many things that the government wants to help with, and I don't know how the dream manager and the government are talking? ”
