Chapter 058: A Long Escape Journey
At midnight, behind a desert sand dune more than 100 miles north of the original Yanjia Village, many villagers sat back to back, squinting and falling asleep.
Some villagers dug a shallow pit in the ground, buried themselves in it, and their heads were exposed, and fell asleep.
In addition to the villagers who took turns to keep vigil, there were four other people who were awake at the moment.
To be exact, these four people were a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, and there were three newborn babies, a girl and two boys.
This is naturally the rain butterfly, the smoke and rain, the king does not meet and the fox charm.
Of course, only Rainbutterfly knows where she is and why she spent the night in this desert.
Because during the day, Tong County ordered to bring people to the village to convey the will of the new emperor, one is to surrender, and the other is to hand over the heavenly maiden Yanyu, otherwise the village will be slaughtered!
The villagers were naturally reluctant to hand over the smoke and rain, but the sudden appearance of dead bodies and lotus lanterns led to the tragic death of five brothers in the village, which completely shocked the villagers, and then Tong County gave the villagers three days to think about it.
In the case of endless arguments among the villagers, or at the suggestion of the old village chief, the whole village decided to abandon Yanjia Village and prepare to go to the ruins of the Misty Lotus Country between the Lotus Country and the Black-tailed Leafhopper Country to rebuild their homes and start a new life.
After all, some of the villagers were old and young, women and children, so the speed of progress was relatively slow, and after several hours of continuous travel, it was midnight again, and the villagers were already exhausted, and the old village chief arranged for several young men to take turns on duty, and everyone fell asleep.
Behind the sand dunes, Yudie and Nalan Qiqing chose a corner with the least relative wind, simply spread a layer of bedding on the ground, and also slept.
It's just that Yudie is pretending to be asleep, because she is still worried about her younger brother Jun not meeting, after all, she knows that when her brother recovers his memory at midnight, she must be surprised, and she would never have imagined that the whole village would spend the night in such a desolate and humble place.
Therefore, she had to quietly tell him everything as soon as Jun Buyu woke up, so that he would not spend these four hours in worry and doubt because he didn't understand what was going on and didn't dare to ask anyone casually.
When Jun Buyu woke up on time and regained his memory, he saw Yudie sitting up with him in his arms, his fingers standing up to his mouth, signaling him not to make a sound.
Jun Buyu nodded slightly, quietly turned his head to look around, and suddenly stared at Yudie with a puzzled expression. Apparently he wondered why the villagers had spent the night in such a strange place.
Yudie glanced around, and then at Nalan Qiqing, who was snoring evenly beside her, and confirmed that no one was paying attention to her and Jun Buyu, so she put her mouth to Jun Buyu's ear, and used the softest voice possible to roughly tell the ins and outs of the future.
It's just that he still concealed Nalan Qiqing and her true identity, but to tell the truth, the reason why the villagers gave up Yanjia Village was to protect the Liansheng Heavenly Maiden Yanyu.
When Jun Buyu heard Yanyu's name, he chuckled inexplicably in his heart, and always felt that there was a trace of indescribable emotion in his heart.
I also inadvertently remembered the experience of last night's ugly time, when I turned into a big monster covered in ice, entered the desert whirlpool, and rescued a little baby girl from the mouth of a big python in a very beautiful cave.
He remembered that the little baby girl introduced herself and said that she was Yanyu, obviously she should be the lotus born heavenly girl that his sister Yudie said.
It's just that he doesn't understand why the new emperor ascended the throne and wanted to kill this cute-looking Liansheng Heavenly Maiden, and the entire Yanjia Village actually dared to go against the royal family for the sake of this Heavenly Maiden, and also gave up the home where his ancestors had lived for generations, and left his hometown to live in a so-called ruins.
Although he wanted to ask for an explanation, it was late at night, and there were other villagers sleeping around, in case his voice was heard by a villager, it would reveal the fact that he had recovered his adult memory and thinking after midnight, and then he would not be able to explain all this clearly, maybe he would be regarded as a demon and cause panic among the villagers, and even if the villagers with extreme ideas strongly demanded that he be executed.
At that time, it will inevitably put the mother and sister in a dangerous and dilemma.
Therefore, Jun Buyu wisely chose to be patient, and decided to wait until the villagers arrived at the destination of the Liansheng Kingdom Ruins, and then look for a suitable opportunity to ask his sister clearly.
And Yu Die, in the case of high nervous tension, used an extremely subtle voice, and a cautious demeanor and tone, and probably explained what had happened, and saw that Jun Buyu nodded thoughtfully to indicate that he probably understood, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that she was also keenly aware of the many doubts that flashed in Jun Buyu's eyes, and she also saw that he actually wanted to ask, but when she still couldn't help but ask, she naturally understood that Jun Buyu was worried about the surrounding environment at the moment, and thought that it was not suitable for a deep chat, so she just gave up.
Subsequently, Yudie felt very sleepy, so she hugged Jun Buyu and lay down again, and soon fell asleep.
Jun Buyu knew that at midnight in the recent period, he had to endure it, and he must not fly up and go around casually, only after arriving at the ruins of the Lotus Kingdom and settling down, he could continue to fly out at midnight to investigate his life experience.
Extremely bored, he had no choice but to look up at the starry sky, staring at the twinkling stars and falling into deep thought......
Meanwhile, in another leeward corner of the dunes, Ling Fox was staring at the starry sky in the nurse's arms, also lost in thought.
He also recovered his memory punctually at midnight, and when he saw himself in the nurse's arms, and the nurse was sleeping deeply, he wanted to sit up quietly and see where it was.
But as soon as he gently broke free from the nurse's embrace, and when he sat up and looked around, in addition to seeing the old village chief sitting cross-legged next to him and napping, he found that a young man not far away was walking in the direction where he was, and hurriedly lay down again.
Fortunately, the light was extremely dim where he was, and his quick reflexes prevented him from being seen by the man on the night watch, which saved him from any trouble he might have caused.
It's just that he really can't understand why he spent the night in such a simple and desolate wilderness, and what happened during the day.
Just as he was thinking nonsense, he heard the footsteps of the night watchman getting closer and closer to him, and he quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
He quickly pricked up his ears again, squinted slightly, and listened carefully to what the night watchman was doing here.
I saw that when the man came to the old village chief not far from his nurse, he gently called the old village chief, and soon woke up the old village chief.
Later, after listening to the whispered conversation between the two, Ling Fox Mei knew that it was time for the shift change, and it was time for the old village chief to be on duty.
It may be that the old village chief felt that Ling Humei couldn't sleep well with Linghu Mei in the nurse's arms, so he gently took Ling Humei, who pretended to be asleep, away from the nurse's arms.
After all, the long night duty is also a lonely and boring thing, so the old village chief hugged Linghu Mei and came to the position on duty together, which can be regarded as someone to accompany him, during the shift, he observed the vast desert while also falling into contemplation.
At this time, the old doctor in the village woke up and couldn't sleep, so he came to talk to the old village chief, so as not to make the old village chief too bored alone.
And Ling Humei continued to pretend to be asleep, motionless, obediently lying in the arms of the old village chief, in fact, listening carefully to the old village chief and the old doctor chatting.
After listening to it for a while, he understood the general situation, it turned out that the whole village was fleeing.
I also learned that the current Emperor of Liansheng Country is no longer a monarch without regrets, but a person named Li Zheng. And after this person ascended the throne, he actually sent an army of dead corpses and highly poisonous lanterns to force the people of the whole country to submit to him, and he also wanted the whole country to arrest the Son of Heaven and the Heavenly Maiden, obviously to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots.
After learning of this unexpected news, Ling Fox Mei became extremely depressed, after all, all his original plans were based on the premise that Jun Wuregret is the emperor.
That's why he wants to do everything possible to get close to the Heavenly Maiden Yanyu, win her trust, and even help her enter the palace smoothly and become the queen of the world, and he may rely on Yanyu to finally unify the Lotus Kingdom and the Black-tailed Leafhopper Kingdom, and become the only real ruler in this world.
However, Jun Wuregret disappeared, and after inexplicably freezing for ten months, he quietly changed the dynasty!
In this way, Ling Fox Mei knew that his plan might be difficult to implement, in case it didn't take long for the new emperor's army to find the ruins of the Liansheng Kingdom and kill all the villagers of Yanjia Village on the grounds of resisting the decree, he, a baby who had no ability to resist, would naturally be unable to escape death.
But Ling Fox Charm has no choice, because he only recovers his memory at midnight every day, and he is an ordinary baby during the day, so even if he wants to break away from these villagers and return to the Black-tailed Leafhopper Country alone, it is impossible to achieve it, and the ruins of the Lotus Kingdom are still five thousand miles away from the Black-tailed Leafhopper Country.
Although he was able to fly at midnight, it was impossible to fly back to the country of the black-tailed leafhopper in just four hours.
So he had to hurry up and come up with a foolproof plan, he must not sit still, at that moment, he inadvertently remembered that the military advisor was cold and waterless, if he was there, he could directly take him back to the country of the black-tailed leafhopper.
As long as he returns to the country of the black-tailed leafhopper, he will be safe, and when he grows up again, after twenty years of careful preparation, it is not impossible to make a comeback and avenge his father and queen mother.
What's more, this new emperor actually trained the dead corpse to act as a killer, and also used the poisonous lotus lantern to deter the people, such an evil and cruel emperor is bound to fail to win the hearts of the people, so if he brings the black-tailed leafhopper army to the city, destroy this evil new emperor in one fell swoop, and then propose to merge the two countries, implement benevolent government, and finally dominate the world.
Just when Ling Humei fell into deep thought after listening to the conversation of the old village chief and the old doctor, all of a sudden, he found that the old village chief and the old doctor had tilted their heads, fell to the ground and fell asleep.
He flew up in amazement, wondering what was going on, only to see a phantom woman flying away with a baby girl deep into the desert......
