Chapter 131: Mine Explosion
"What's up with me? Are you trying to make me sell myself to pay off my debts? ”
Chang Le replied weakly, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable lying down. With his hands on the cushions, he moved up and sat upright.
"I'm just a cornucopia, how can I give it to you for nothing? I have pledged the Lord of the fast for you. ”
King Huai hooked his lips: "What I said, Chengyan is the same as your person." ”
"Almost." Chang Le was very wishful thinking, "By the way, where has the lord been recently, why don't you always see him?" ”
"Something's gone."
Chang Le pondered for a while: "Then I will give you Baguizhai as collateral." ”
"Eight Gui Zhai, that's the king's."
“……”
One deliberately opened the topic and said it out of tune. One said some shameless words along the way, trying to forget the sorrow he had just faced. Although the atmosphere is not as relaxed as usual, it can be regarded as a lot of activity.
In the silent night, the two carriages passed by the doors of every house, crossed the streets and alleys, and made the sound of clattering horses' hooves and wheeling cars.
It seems empty and lonely.
……
In a small back room, the people on the bed gradually woke up, and Zhang Changxiu, who was dressed in a county official robe, couldn't help but be happy, but he didn't show much.
When the fifteen or sixteen-year-old Chang Le opened his eyes and became familiar with the surrounding environment, he looked at him and smiled lightly, and his voice was extremely soft and soft.
"Sure enough, you're not an ordinary person."
"But have you ever thought I'm a bad person?" Zhang Changxiu asked with a smile.
Chang Le smiled slightly: "You don't look like it." ”
"You're too easily deceived. I didn't look like it, so I let me go, and I refused to confess when I was beaten like that. Zhang Changxiu looked at her with pity.
Only then did he kill Qin Zhuang and rescue her from Qin Zhuang, so it was easy to wait until she woke up with a fever.
"I see you." Chang Le suddenly changed his words, looked at him fixedly, moved his lips, and said weakly, "You were outside the door at the time, I saw it." ”
"Then why didn't you recruit at the time?" Zhang Changxiu was surprised, "I watched you being beaten, but I didn't save you, so wolf-hearted, shouldn't you be disappointed to confess to me?" ”
Chang Le shook his head: "I knew you would save me, I can see it." ”
Zhang Changxiu was puzzled: "Where did you see it?" ”
"In your eyes." Chang Le's eyes are bent into a half-crescent, which is very good-looking, "Uncle Shili said, you have to look at people, what mood and thoughts does this person have, good intentions or bad water." As soon as you look at your eyes, you know everything. ”
Zhang Changxiu couldn't help but laugh, undeniable: "This uncle is really transparent." ”
For the first time, Zhang Changxiu was attracted to a girl. Because of her pure and simple heart.
Later, Zhang Changxiu dealt with this uncle many times, and he also knew Shili, and he also saw Changle a few more times.
Because the uncle of Shili has a poisonous mouth, he can't talk more than his brain every time.
It is also unfortunate that he spoke viciously and became a prophecy, and it worked. The other party sued Uncle Shili in court.
Shili and Changle came to listen and plead.
For this kind of unreliable thing, Zhang Changxiu appeased both sides, symbolically punished the Shili uncle a few times, and asked him to go back to reflect.
But within two days, Uncle Shili was accused of going to court again.
Chang Le treats Shili's uncle like his own uncle, and feels that this uncle is always causing trouble for Zhang Changxiu, so he makes some food from time to time and sends it over to make amends.
went back and forth, and the two also had feelings.
Uncle's troubles didn't end until he died of illness.
The relationship between Zhang Changxiu and Chang Le has also stabilized.
After two years of filial piety, the two of them became relatives.
At that time, the whole small county town was full of festivities. Red lights and red silk knot every street, and the county celebrates together.
For their marriage, people from all over the county went to join in the fun and send blessings.
When the bride entered the door, firecrackers rang out, so it was not lively.
……
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
Zhang Changxiu was awakened, and his mind was still immersed in the past with Chang Le.
All the feelings for Changle came up, and I suddenly woke up to the fact that now things are wrong.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
Not only was Zhang Changxiu awakened, but the remote city of the Thirteen Counties had just woken up. Trembling madly at the sudden thunder.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
The thunder continued, and the thirteen counties had begun to panic.
Zhang Changxiu felt the tremor in the room, and instantly reacted that something was wrong. It was just a dream just now, and the roar now is not the sound of firecrackers for weddings.
It was too late to immerse myself in the mud of feelings, so I opened my eyes, turned around and stayed, grabbed a coat and ran out.
The roar came one after another, sometimes far and sometimes near, and the shelves in the room shook a few times and smashed at him.
The door was suddenly opened, and Wu Ze rushed in from the outside, hugged Zhang Changxiu in time, took him out of the door, and stood still in the courtyard.
"Bang bang".
The shelves fell to the ground, and the calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain fell to the ground.
The earth was still trembling, Zhang Changxiu held Wu Ze to stabilize his body easily, and he saw Sun Tou running over.
"What's going on?"
Half of the sound was drowned out in the rumble.
Sun Tou's pace was also unsteady due to the violent shaking of the ground, and it was easy to run close before he anxiously reported the situation.
"Master, it seems that something happened to the mine outside the city!"
Zhang Changxiu's mind was stunned for a moment, and he immediately realized that it must be Yuguo's trick that has begun!
turned around and went back to the house, and with the help of Wuze, he quickly changed into his official uniform.
"Take someone to the mine, hurry up!"
Zhang Changxiu hurriedly ran outside the Taishou Mansion, and on the way, he saw that there was also a mess in the Taishou Mansion, and Aunt Rong and the housekeeper were appeasing the maids.
Zhang Shou and Aunt Rong glanced at Zhang Changxiu, who was in a hurry, and they were very discerning, and they didn't step forward to make trouble, and tried their best to do their jobs.
Hua was taken away, saying that he had committed suicide in prison. There is no hostess in the Taishou Mansion, only these subordinates, who can only be managed by the steward.
"Have you notified King Huai and the other adults?" Zhang Changxiu's breath was very unstable because of his excitement.
Wuze followed him at all times, vigilant about his state.
Sun Tou followed Zhang Changxiu's steps: "I have sent people to see the situation." ”
When they came to the streets, the people were frightened and raging. One by one, he pulled his family members, hugged a simple burden, and ignored Zhang Changxiu and rushed outside the city gate.
The roar was like an urge, making them run more panicked and fast, and their mouths were still shouting loudly.
"Yuguo people are coming, run!"
An elderly man fell to the ground due to immobility. The younger generation immediately pulled him up.
"Dad, if you insist on insisting, the Yuguo people are coming, we have to run away quickly."
The old man immediately staggered with tears in his eyes, and struggled to push away the juniors: "Son, dad can't walk, so I won't drag you down, hurry up and run, ah!" ”
"Dad, don't say such unspeakable things. Hurry up, I'll carry you, let's hurry up. ”
As he spoke, the young man shoved the burden into his wife's arms and threw the child to his daughter-in-law. I squatted down, picked up my skinny father on my back, and ran out with difficulty with my wife and children, and avoided the people who bumped into me.
Such a scene is not uncommon for a while, and those who are filial and responsible, how can they bring their own families, and there is no one left. Selfishly and ruthlessly, he left behind those who dragged his feet, leaving them to collapse on the ground, discouraged and waiting for death. Tramples are even more frequent.
Zhang Changxiu walked all the way, and he didn't have time to stop these crazy people first, and he was still protected from collision under the protection of Wuze and Sun Tou, so he could only wrinkle his eyebrows.
"Is the city gate guarded?"
It is clear that at this time there was an accident at the mine. Not to mention that the people going out of the city would make things more troublesome, and their lives would be more difficult to protect.
Outside the city, there are mines, and only the city is a safe open area.
Sun Tou said: "King Huai asked Du Wei to send more troops last night. As soon as the voice sounded a few times today, the lieutenant led the people to the gate of the city. ”
I have to say that the lieutenant was very foresightful and quick in doing things.
As soon as the lieutenant heard such a loud noise, he immediately thought that the people would riot. When the people had not yet awakened, they rode their horses to the training grounds, pulled the soldiers to gather at the gates of the cities, closed the gates, and formed a siege.
What is even more admirable is King Huai, the prophet of the unknown.
Fortunately, King Huai asked Du Wei to increase his troops yesterday, so he won't be too cramped and passive in defense today.
As soon as Zhang Changxiu arrived at the yamen, the assassin also rushed to the yamen with people. Several teams just took a look.
"It's hard to be troubled, but luckily you woke up. It seems that the enemy has already begun to move. Jiang Congshan's eyebrows were twisted into Chuanhai, "Why didn't King Huai see anyone at this time?" I didn't see it either! Go and urge them to come quickly. ”
At this time, Sun Tou had already gathered the yacha to come out. Zhang Changxiu spoke up and stopped the two people sent out by the Thorn History: "There is no need to come here, let them go directly to Xiaolin Mountain outside the city to meet." ”
The two paused, nodded immediately, and ran away.
"Go to the mines!"
Zhang Changxiu gave an order, and he took his own people separately with Assassin Shi and quickly moved out of the city.
……
Chang Le stayed awake all night, put the pebbles and the little hawthorn in the side room, and prepared to get up early to buy two good coffins to bury them.
She didn't sleep at night, and she didn't let King Huai go.
Liu Chengyan was not there, and there were small hawthorn and small pebbles in the yard, and she was still a little afraid.
Huai Wang had no choice but to stay, but he watched Chang Le read the little yellow book in the small warm pavilion in the front store of Baguizhai, and he was not accosted a few words all night. Even when he said two words boringly, they all fell silent, without the slightest repercussion.
Needless to say, Shili also stayed with him all night.
Outside, it was just dawn, and as if celebrating the arrival of dawn, there were two loud bangs.
The sound shook the sky, one after another, and even the earth began to tremble unbearably. The table shook the cup out, and the cup fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the residual herbal tea flowed all over the floor.
The faces of everyone in the room changed dramatically.
"There was an earthquake!"
Chang Le threw the book away, pulled ten miles and drilled under the table. Outside, there was a loud sound of bookshelves collapsing, accompanied by the muffled sound of books falling to the floor.
"Was there an earthquake?"
Before the people of Shili could react, they had been pulled to the bottom of the table by Chang Le. Chang Le had already put his head in his hands and made a defensive posture. The rumbling sound was still coming, and the screams of the people running on the street were noisy and loud, and individual voices were clearly transmitted into the closed Baguizhai.
Some of the people outside said that it was an earthquake, and some said that it was from Yuguo.
