Chapter 113: The Birdcage
When Mr. Yang said this, he raised his cigarette gun and took a big puff.
The battle lasted for seven days, and the walls of this Rui city were very high, and it was originally easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it could not withstand the artillery bombardment outside, and those people outside did not come in, and the people in the city could not stand it just by throwing artillery fire into the city.
Therefore, for the sake of the peace of the people, they could only open the city gate and surrender, but who knows, after those enemy troops came in, they directly cut off the head of the city defender and hung it on the city gate.
As a result, the general's resentment was too heavy, and he turned into a corpse demon, and came to the city every night to do evil, killing many people.
As he said this, he took several puffs of his cigarette and made a very pained expression.
However, I don't think such a smoker can be trusted to say such things, and why don't you just leave here when you have money to smoke a lot of cigarettes? Wouldn't there be nothing to do without this?
"Why don't you go?" Xiao Qingyu actually asked the same thing.
"I'm gone, what will happen to the people here? Ay! They are so pathetic that I can't leave them behind. After Mr. Yang finished speaking, he began to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog again.
I was silent, and Xiao Qingyu also looked at the man silently.
"That's it, since the corpse demon will come out every night to do evil, then, we are waiting here." Liu Yusheng frowned, he couldn't stand the heavy smell of smoke in this room, and he didn't want to stay here.
"What this little brother said is that it doesn't matter what happened before, the important thing is that now you get rid of the corpse demon for me immediately, okay, you go out, I'm tired!" After Mr. Yang finished speaking, he slowly lay down again, but he was still smoking a cigarette gun.
The three of us got up and immediately got out of this smoky room.
After coming out, he saw Lao Xue still standing at the door, and when he saw us coming out, he said let us rest in the next room.
However, Xiao Qingyu said that he wanted to go out for a walk.
Lao Xue was stunned, his eyes rolled slightly, and his eyes seemed to be afraid that something would be discovered by us.
After Xiao Qingyu proposed to go out for a walk, Lao Xue had to go out with us.
What he said was that he was afraid that we would not know the road and that we would get lost and in trouble when the time came.
The three of us are no longer children, and this kind of argument is obviously deliberately trying to follow us.
"Okay then." Xiao Qingyu agreed.
After Lao Xue followed the three of us out of this small building, Xiao Qingyu was about to stretch out his hand and prepare to lift the black cloth hanging at the door, presumably like me, wondering what was covered under this black cloth.
"Eh, it's all some domestic animals, chickens and ducks, I'm afraid that the corpse demon will hurt people, so I specially prepared it for him, hoping that he won't hurt people anymore when he is full." As Lao Xue spoke, he pushed Xiao Qingyu's hand away, saying that he should not touch his dirty hands.
Xiao Qingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his feet and prepared to go to other residents to ask about the situation, but he knocked on several houses in a row, and none of them came to open the door for us.
Lao Xue said that this was all scared by the corpse demon, so no matter day or night, he was closed.
"Lao Xue, we want to walk around at will, you better go back first." Liu Yusheng glanced at Lao Xue, and realized that this Lao Xue was not trying to help us, but deliberately wanted to stare at us.
"You're not familiar with this Ruicheng, me?" Before Lao Xue finished speaking, Liu Yusheng waved his hand and asked Lao Xue to go back to rest very strongly.
Lao Xue didn't go back, and a few of us just stood where we were and didn't leave, Lao Xue could only smile awkwardly when he saw this scene, nodded at a few of us, and turned back.
Before entering, he didn't forget to tell a few of us to come back before dark.
Getting rid of this old Xue's surveillance, the three of us walked all the way out along this small alley, and knocked on the door several times along the way, but no one opened it.
And the black cloth at the door of these houses was lifted by Xiao Qingyu several times in succession.
Under the black cloth, there were indeed large bird cages, and the cages were empty, and there were some blood stains left.
I think it should be used to put poultry as Lao Xue said.
Out of this alley, the three of us began to walk around the street randomly, Xiao Qingyu's purpose should be to find someone to understand the situation here.
However, we didn't see a single figure after walking for half a day, so we had to prepare to go back.
And at this time, I saw a white dove hovering above our heads, and Xiao Qingyu immediately raised his hand when he saw the white dove.
The white dove swooped down and finally stopped on Xiao Qingyu's arm.
Xiao Qingyu took a note from the white pigeon's leg, released the white pigeon again, and deliberately walked forward a few steps quickly before spreading out the note.
Liu Yusheng, who was standing next to me, smiled faintly, and I immediately thought that it should be Liu Yusheng who told me before, and he would find a way to get this Xiao Qingyu away.
And judging from Xiao Qingyu's expression after seeing the note, Liu Yusheng's method should be very effective.
He hurried back after reading the note, and as soon as he reached the mouth of the alley, I heard a "pop" sound, and then a stone hit me.
I turned sideways and looked to the left side of the alley, and when I saw a child, and when I saw that I had spotted him, he immediately turned around and ran.
It's just that his speed is naturally not as fast as Xiao Qingyu's, Xiao Qingyu quickly rushed towards the kid and grabbed his arm.
The child was about seven or eight years old, ragged and very thin.
"Let go of me, you bad people!" He opened his mouth and yelled at us.
"Bad guys? What did we do wrong, why do you say we're bad people? Xiao Qingyu was quite patient with a child, and actually half-squatted down and asked the reason.
"If you live in this alley, you're all bad people!" The child glared at us with resentment in his eyes.
"Oh? Why are all the bad people who live in this alley? Liu Yusheng also interjected and asked.
"The people who live in this alley are all members of the Yang family, if they hadn't opened the city gate for the smoke, how could so many people have died? My eldest brother won't be beheaded either! The boy said, his little eyes already red.
"You're the general's brother?" I looked at the kid and thought that Mr. Yang really lied to us: "Little brother, we have nothing to do with those people, can you tell us what happened here?" ”
"Yes, if you tell us, we can give you some dry rations and money." After Xiao Qingyu finished speaking, he directly took out a money bag from his pocket and handed it to the child.
The child blinked his little eyes, but he still looked at us stubbornly: "You really have nothing to do with the Yang family?" ”
"Well, we came from Beijing, and we just passed by here, and when we found someone here, we parked the car inside." Xiao Qingyu let go of the child as he spoke, and pointed to the car.
The boy seemed to believe something, but he didn't want money, just dry food!
