Chapter 120: Helplessness is often the case
The tall woman listened to her eldest sister's sad story about those childhood events, and her face suddenly became gloomy, but as if she had found an opportunity to talk today, she saw that the eldest sister couldn't cry, so she continued.
"At that time, the eldest sister was six years old, I was five years old, and the youngest sister was only four and a half years old...... We couldn't go back to our home, we begged on the road, but we were always looked down upon, and at that time, we three sisters really didn't understand what we had done wrong! It is called that the heavens should not be, and the earth is not spiritual! Should ugliness be ridiculed and bullied? Why! ”
At this point, she looked at Squeak, stretched out her slightly trembling right hand to caress Squeak's white and flawless little face, her eyes were full of endless envy, "We also want such a face, we also want to be naturally beautiful......"
Suddenly, the woman screamed out of control, her eyes full of grief and indignation, "I hate this world!" Hate all the people in this world! ”
As she spoke, she opened her hands and slowly turned in a circle, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, as if she was smiling but not smiling, "Don't they all laugh at us for being dwarves, bent shrimps, and black pockmarks......"
She paused to say something, tilted her head to look at the half of the iron rod that was still buried in the ground, and suddenly laughed with a hideous face: "Hahahahaha! It's better to hide in this wasteland, it's quiet...... Anyone who passes by here is going to kill them! Robbed them of their money! Hahahaha! Look who laughs at us again! ”
Squeaky listened to their words silently, and his heart was inexplicably a little stunned.
At this moment, the three women with deep demons, one was crying heartbreakingly, one was laughing madly, and the other was looking dull as if he had lost his soul.
"Squeak, these three women are really pitiful, or ...... Let them go? ”
Leng Chitong's eyes leaned closer to the squeaky ear, obviously showing compassion.
Squeak frowned, a little wavering in his heart, unable to decide whether to kill or let the three of them go.
But Wang Yun had already been a little frightened by the madness of the dwarf woman and the tall woman, and subconsciously kept falling backwards.
Unexpectedly, just as Squeak and Leng Chitong were distracted, the dwarf woman who had been crying heart-rending suddenly lowered her voice, and a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes.
I saw that the woman moved her hand slightly, and out of nowhere, she felt a handful of powder as white as snow, and squeaked it at lightning speed!
Fortunately, Squeak's reaction was sensitive enough, and he grabbed the cold red pupil next to him, and quickly dodged to the direction behind the woman.
The squeaky heel hit the ground, and a dazzling golden air mass was born in his hand.
"Boom!"
Before everyone could see clearly, a muffled sound came, and a strange golden ball of light slammed into the middle of the head of the dwarf woman who was trying to squeak.
"Poof!"
The woman stared at her eyes, trying her best to endure the discomfort in her body, but in the end, she still couldn't restrain herself, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth!
At this time, she seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and fell obliquely into the arms of the third sister with a black mole on her face.
Surprisingly, in such a bad situation, the corners of the woman's mouth smiled inexplicably.
Faced with this situation, the woman with a black mole on her face hugged her eldest sister who was getting weaker and weaker with one hand, and slapped her cheek with the other, as if her eldest sister could avoid death as long as she did this.
"Big sister! Eldest sister! You know that we are no match for them, so why should you take such a risk, why bother! ”
The tall woman knelt beside her eldest sister, very excited.
The dwarf woman wanted to reach out and touch her two sisters, who had been dependent on her for many years, but when she saw that her hands were already stained with blood, she smiled bitterly and put her hands down again.
"I've been hating for thirty-seven years...... Finally...... It's finally all over. ”
She gritted her teeth, her blank eyes looked up at the blue sky, as if she was looking at her own destiny from afar, and what was revealed in her eyes was an indescribable emotion, and she struggled to say what she wanted to say in her heart.
Even though Squeak has always been smart and icy, it is difficult to understand the complex psychology of these three women, and he does not fully understand the meaning of her words.
Her two sisters seemed to understand, and tears fell from them.
"Little girl, although ...... I don't know who you are, but it's still ...... Thank you so much! Thank...... Thank you. ”
The woman's breathing became more and more difficult, and her voice gradually decreased, and after saying this, she finally fell asleep forever.
Leng Chitong was full of suspicion, and couldn't help muttering, "Kill her and say thank you?" ”
The woman with a black mole on her face sneered, "Heh! The eldest sister often asks, what is beauty? What is ugly? She also often suspects that maybe everyone is wrong, that what everyone thinks is beautiful may actually be ugly, and what everyone thinks is ugly may actually be beautiful...... Scold! Who knows! So the eldest sister often says that we are three beauties, and ...... And not three ugly. ”
She just said unhurriedly, looking sluggish and crazy, saying something that no one could understand.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly quickly pulled out an arrow from her back and stabbed it into her heart!
The woman didn't have time to say anything about this stab, she lost her breath in an instant, and fell dead on her eldest sister's body.
Faced with this sudden thrilling scene, Leng Chitong, Squeak and Wang Yun were suddenly stunned.
"Big sister! Third sister! Yes! ”
The only woman who was alive could not face such an outcome, and in the face of the loss of two of her most important sisters in her life at the same time, she shouted hoarsely, almost as if she was about to roar her vocal cords out of the hole.
Before a few people could come to their senses, the tall woman somehow took out an arrow from her third sister and stabbed it into her chest without hesitation.
"I can't forgive, I can't let go, probably, death is really a relief...... Big sister, I know...... You're really tired......"
The tall woman fell headlong on top of her two sisters, muttering to herself as she lay dying words that perhaps no one could even hear.
"They, they're dead?"
Wang Yun shrunk his neck, almost unable to believe everything that had just happened in front of his eyes.
"Actually, not all people laugh at them and hurt them because of their appearance. It's just a pity that they can't choose who they meet, just as they can't choose what they look like......"
A deep sadness suddenly appeared in the squeaky eyes, which looked particularly desolate in such a season and in such a scene.
It was probably the impermanence of the world that fell on these three women that inadvertently touched a corner of Squeak's heart and made her sad.
Leng Chitong's gaze couldn't take his eyes off these three women who met in Pingshui for a long time, he didn't understand why they were so good-natured, he didn't understand why they had such deep resentment in their hearts, and he didn't understand why he was so uncomfortable in his heart at this time.
"Squeak...... They ......"
Leng Chitong didn't know what was wrong with him, and suddenly couldn't say a complete word.
However, even though Leng Chitong couldn't speak clearly, Squeak could see his thoughts in his eyes.
After a few people had calmed down, they buried the three sisters together on the side of the dirt road, and then prepared to leave the place and walk to the next city.
Perhaps, this is the best ending, the deep hatred in their hearts is too deep to be cut off, if they are kept, many innocent people will surely die at their hands. It's just that..... Who is the cause of all this......"
Squeak knew that he couldn't decisively kill these three women, and looked back at their burial place again, with mixed feelings in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh.
Although Wang Yun was a little away from the fallen horse, he could see that something was wrong with it at a glance.
However, when Wang Yun stepped forward and took a closer look, he found that the horse was indeed dead!
Wang Yun was expecting to wake up the horse and hurry, but now he panicked.
Looking at Wang Yun's strange expression, Leng Chitong and Squeak also walked over.
"I didn't expect the ecstasy in their hands to poison such a strong horse?"
Squeak was also startled, and as she spoke, she looked at the place where the three women were buried.
"No, how could this ecstasy poison a horse?"
Squeak stroked his chin with one hand, frowning and curious.
At this moment, Squeak only felt a lot of doubts in his heart.
She crouched down and gently placed her fingers on the horse's body, smearing some of the white powder that remained on the horse's hair to her fingertips.
It's a pity that Squeak only knows a little about some of the more common drugs on the rivers and lakes, and I can't see the reason for it for a long time.
"Could it be...... What other ingredient has been added to this ecstasy? ”
Even though Squeak couldn't see anything special about this powder, he still couldn't help but suspect it in his heart.
Odd...... Since these three women are just poor people who have been wandering since childhood, why do their eldest sisters have such a powerful poison in their hands? Why does the third sister have such an amazing archery skill?
Squeak half-crouched, and one question after another kept popping up in his mind.
"The host ......"
Squeak couldn't figure it out, and just opened his mouth to discuss a few words, but he seemed to remember something else, and suddenly stopped talking.
"Huh?"
Seeing that Squeak suddenly stopped talking, Leng Chitong was puzzled, and looked at her suspiciously, just waiting for her to continue.
"Forget it, people are dead, and I can't ask anything...... If the horse is dead, it will die, and we must hurry on! ”
Squeak suddenly changed his words, smiled reluctantly, and deliberately pretended to be fine.
"Yes, yes, yes! What Squeaky said was that when we got to the next city, we had to hurry up and buy another carriage, and let's go! ”
Wang Yun continued to speak with his squeaky words, but before he finished speaking, the person had already taken the first step.
"Buy, buy, buy, buy things without money, huh? I don't know if it cost me twenty gold beads to buy a carriage before? ”
Leng Chitong listened to Wang Yun's words, and his heart became inexplicably irritable.
"I didn't expect that I had just gone out, and the gold beads had already spent nearly half of them, mother, you were still too stingy to give me such a little gold beads, but how did you last until the end! It's really a pearl to use when you hate less......"
Leng Chitong walked dejectedly, muttering to himself with a bitter face.
