Chapter 2 Beihu
"Hey!" In the crowded crowd, Lin Yixiao tripped and didn't stand firmly, and fell heavily on the ground on all fours.
The thick snow on the stiff mud has not yet melted, the snowflakes mixed with muddy water and blood water are all over Lin Yixiao's face, and the unpleasant smell infiltrates every cell in the body, Lin Yixiao is uncomfortable and retching, but there is nothing around, he looked at his dirty sleeves, and then looked at the white snow that could be reached not far away, and then stretched out his slender little hand and scratched it on the ground and wiped it on his face, and the moment the snow touched his cheek, the slightest chill instantly invaded, causing Lin Yixiao's body to tremble, The snow ball was cold and biting, extremely cold, and the unpleasant fishy smell still remained on his cheeks, looking at the snow ball remaining in his hand, he really wanted to cry without tears.
"Hey, girl, hurry up, I'll help you up." An old woman's voice sounded in her ears, Lin Yixiao seemed to have returned to the world, feeling very cordial, she raised her head gratefully to look at the other party's old face, and couldn't say a word.
The temperature from the old woman's palm made Lin Yixiao's nose sour, and while running away with the crowd, she missed her parents, looking at the more and more flustered situation, and she didn't know if the second elder was safe and sound, if they had three long and two short...... Lin Yixiao didn't dare to think about this anymore, at such an instant, she experienced a huge transformation from heaven to hell, just now she was a happy bride with joy and stars holding the moon, but now she is an unkempt refugee, and even the groom's official and parents don't know where they went.
The violent impact of multiple emotions was intertwined, Lin Yixiao only felt that there was something blocked in her chest, from great joy to great sorrow, she seemed to be unable to distinguish what it was like in her heart.
Suddenly, people's footsteps stopped, and the crowd became even more noisy, as if something had changed, but there were too many people, covering Lin Yixiao's sight, she was trying to see what was happening, when she heard a middle-aged man not far from her shouting excitedly: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I still have an old mother, and a young and ignorant child, I can't die!"
"Stinging !!" The piercing sound of the sword thrust into the flesh and blood, "Poof! The steaming blood spurted out and splashed everywhere, Lin Yixiao only felt the hot blood flowing down her cheeks, as if it was her own blood, her soul was frightened, her facial features were instinctively closed, her whole body was empty, she couldn't scream, she couldn't move, she only vaguely saw that the man who was shouting just now, and the man who was alive and well instantly fell down like a paralyzed mollusk.
"Iniquity!" The old woman's face was also stained with blood, and her voice trembled, don't look away, she can't bear to look at such a scene again.
The crowd was instantly stunned and silent, and even the baby in the woman's swaddling clothes seemed to feel the danger and remained silent.
"Kill all the men, and catch all the women in the carriage!" The red-eyed Beihu people surrounded this group of ordinary people in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yixiao came back to her senses now and understood what was happening, they were surrounded by the fierce and vicious Beihu people, she closed her eyes in despair, it seemed that she would not be able to escape her doom in the end.
......
The snow finally stopped, Lin Yixiao curled up and squeezed on the carriage with a group of women, because there were more people carrying, the carriage seemed to be overwhelmed, making a "creaking, creaking" sound, the front and back were Beihu's troops, through the cold wooden frame, Lin Yixiao looked at the city coldly, she never felt that the city was so strange and so terrifying.
At night, Lin Yixiao, who had not eaten or drunk for a day, was as tired as others, she felt that her head was very heavy, and she wanted to lean against the wooden prison behind her, and suddenly a pair of eyes with big copper bells stared at Lin Yixiao, those eyes were lifeless, like dead fish, Lin Yixiao was excited, and after a closer look, she could no longer control the soft "ah", and the last bit of tiredness was swept away.
It was clearly a head, just so naked, hanging naked from the outside of the carriage, dripping with blood, pulling out blood-colored marks in the snow.
"You see it everywhere." A girl next to her gently tugged the corner of Lin Yixiao's clothes, the timid Nunu mouth, her eyes were full of fear, and Lin Yixiao quickly blocked her mouth with her hand.
The girl sighed and continued in despair: "I'd rather die like them, you know our fate will be worse than this."
How could Lin Yixiao not understand the meaning of the girl's words, she clenched her fists tightly, her nails were deeply embedded in her palms, and at this time she remembered Xiang Jiayan, where is he? Is he alive?
Lin Yixiao couldn't help but feel funny, when he heard that the Beihu people were attacking the city, he himself fled first, and now he is unable to protect himself, what do you want him to do, but why is he unwilling to escape with him? Is the alliance fake......
A crumbling teardrop hung on the corner of his eye, telling the pain of the moment.
......
The camp of the Beihu people was brightly lit, and Lin Yixiao followed behind a group of women to the designated location.
Perhaps because of the snow, Lin Yixiao felt that the night was extremely cold, and after arriving at the camp of the Beihu people, the Beihu people placed them in a dark and damp camp, although she was already sleepy, she did not dare to sleep.
In the silent night, even the sound of breathing was amplified, and the people who listened were frightened, under them was a damp and dilapidated bedding, Lin Yixiao was lying on it, her eyes closed, what was she waiting for, for a long time, the fantasy did not happen, the curtain of the camp tent was not opened, maybe it was because it was too late and the Beihu people were not interested? Lin Yixiao was a little puzzled, she waited patiently to see the changes, but she heard the girl's voice next to her crying slightly, and said tremblingly: "The Beihu people won't do anything to us, right?"
"You're so stupid, if the Beihu people really won't do anything to us, why do you arrest us back? Is it offering? I guess they killed us a long time ago! The other girl's voice was a little sad and angry, and it was very real to hear in the silence of the night.
"No, I'd rather die!" The girl seemed to think of something, crying heartbreakingly, causing the girls around her to cry sadly, crying about their tragic fate, crying about their powerlessness, this miserable voice made Lin Yixiao's already torn heart more painful and broken. Lin Yixiao was already gray at the moment, and the feeling of suffocation came to her face, but she didn't cry like other girls, she slowly opened her eyes, her long eyelashes were covered with a layer of mist, and her clear eyes were no longer bright, but with a hint of firmness. If something like that really happens, he can only bite his tongue and commit suicide. After thinking about it, Lin Yixiao made up her mind in her heart, and she was a little relieved in the face of what was about to happen.
Time passed bit by bit, the expected scene did not happen, and I don't know when, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the tent, as well as the sound of fighting with blades, which made Lin Yixiao, who was already a little sleepy, wake up, she sat up softly, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of fighting getting stronger and stronger, and the already dull heart flashed a glimmer of light.
Could it be that there are officers and soldiers who come to the rescue? It is impossible, Huaibei City was breached in less than a day, it was nothing more than because of the cowardice and incompetence of the officers and soldiers, why did they dare to lead troops to attack Beihu's camp now.
Unable to resist the curiosity in her heart, she rubbed her slightly stiff legs, clubbed her hands on the ground, propped herself up, and slowly walked towards the door curtain.
