Chapter Fifty-Six: What Dali Sees and Hears (I)

"As long as there are five spirit beads, Bai Miao will definitely be able to revive the scenery of the past and rebuild the rich and peaceful Nanshao Guowei in the past!"

Feng Jie said coldly: "Aren't Bai Miao and Hei Miao separated from you here in Dali?" ”

Anu snorted, "Sooner or later, we will have to come back together." Of course, it is after our white seedlings have taught the black seedlings enough lessons and let them know how good we are. ”

Li Xiaoyao said: "I also got a bead in the Phoenix Nest before, can you see if it is a water spirit bead?" ”

After finishing speaking, Li Xiaoyao took out a cyan bead, Anu took it and looked at it, and said regretfully: "No, this is a wind spirit bead." ”

Li Xiaoyao saw Anu's disappointed expression, and couldn't help but comfort: "Anu, don't worry, I will definitely help you find the Water Spirit Bead." ”

Anu Xi said, "Really? Don't just talk about it. ”

Li Xiaoyao said: "The eldest husband has a promise!" You have taken such a hard risk to save the Miao people, can I not help you? Besides, my wife is also a Miao person! ”

Anu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take you back to Dali now, and let you get the unicorn horn first, so that you can save your wife." ”

Anu led the three of them all the way to Dali noisily, Dali City is a few days away from here, accompanied by Anu along the way, she always has that sweet smile on her face, hearty laughter, coquettish and gratifying words, it seems that she is always so innocent and cheerful, and let Feng Jie and Li Xiaoyao also relax their mood, and they are not bored at all on the way with her. Before I knew it, I had come to the outside of Dali.

The beautiful scenery of Dali in Yunnan has always been famous, the so-called "Shangguan wind blows down the flowers, Erhai Moon reflects the snow of Cangshan Mountain", it is the four famous scenery of Nanshao "wind, flowers, snow and moon".

However, the closer they got to Dali, Feng Jie and Li Xiaoyao only felt the hot wind blowing on their faces, the sand and dust covered the sky, and there was a kind of dry air in the air, which made people feel a slight tingling pain even when they breathed. Moreover, as far as the eye can see, apart from the large areas of withered yellow and intermittent greenery, it is so lifeless that it is hard to imagine that such a place can be inhabited.

Even Anu, who always had a smile on his face, had a heavy meaning in his eyes, and at this time, Li Xiaoyao knew that the drought was true.

Anu couldn't help but look up at the blue sky and muttered, "Alas...... Don't know when it will rain? ”

Li Xiaoyao said: "I heard that Yunnan is not only rainy, but also has many rivers and rivers, even if it does not rain for a long time, there is still snow on the mountains, and surging wells, how can it become like this?" ”

Anu said: "When the snow on the mountain melts halfway, it melts into the ground; The rivers were still flowing two years ago, but they have gradually dried up recently, and there has been no rain for nine years, and no matter how much water there is, it will run out! ”

"That'...... How can I plant without water? ”

Anu smiled bitterly: "Who cares about planting, if you don't even have water to drink, then everyone will die." ”

Anu sighed and said, "Now there is still a well with water left in Dali City, and my mother has prescribed the method of distribution, and everyone can hold on for a while." When the well is dry, you will either die here, or you will abandon your home and flee to another place, and you will become homeless. ”

Anu's sweet and childish voice said such pitiful words, which made Li Xiaoyao very unbearable, and he didn't know how to comfort her.

Anu said again: "I heard Tang Yu say ......"

"Who is Tang Yu?"

Anu said: "He is a Han man, he has lived with us for a long time, he has read a lot of Han books, and it is very interesting to talk to him." ”

"Well, what did he say?"

"He told me that the books of the Han people say: If it does not rain for a long time, or if there is some natural disaster, it is the punishment of God for the bad deeds done by the people in the upper position. Do you Han Chinese really say that in your books? ”

Li Xiaoyao didn't read much, and he wasn't very sure, but he had also heard a lot of such sayings, so he nodded and said, "It seems to ...... Yes. ”

Feng Jie said: "That's not necessarily...... Do you know that there is a saying that when a vision falls from heaven, the kingdom will perish, and there will be demons. There was a nine-year drought in Miaojiang, but I remember that ten years ago, Miaojiang was hit by a major flood that had not been encountered in a century, and the climate was capricious, and there must be demons. ”

Anu didn't seem to understand when he heard it, but then he flicked his braid again: "That must be the black seedling!" We Bai Miao are united, my mother is the patriarch, and she has never done anything to be sorry for any clansmen. It must be that the witch king of the black seedling is bad and has made some evil that makes the sky not rain for so long. ”

Feng Jie was speechless, he originally wanted to turn around and remind Anu of the Water Demon Beast, but then he thought about it, how old is Anu this year, he was still breastfeeding ten years ago, and he wouldn't know about the Water Demon Beast.

At this time, several women with water urns on their backs came to the avenue, and when they saw Anu, they retreated to the side of the road, and called Anu a few times with a smile, and Anu also responded to them. They are haggard and have loose hair, which shows that life is hard, but they are still smiling, which shows that the people here are gentle and kind, and they will fight a decisive battle with outsiders, which must be a last resort.

As soon as the women spoke, it was in Chinese: "Miss Anu, you are back, the king wants to scold you!" ”

"These two sons are your friends?"

Anu said: "Yes, they are all my friends, I brought them to Dali to take a look, are they all okay in the city?" ”

One of the women said: "It's all good, the black seedlings haven't moved recently, and it's rare to have a few quiet days!" ”

Another woman also said: "But then Tang Yu ran outside the city every day, looking through his eyes." Now that you're back, he doesn't have to run so tired! ”

Anu smiled and said, "You guys are talking nonsense, he is so weak that the wind blows and he breaks, how can he run?" You're better than him! In case the black seedling comes, you will have to carry him into the city for refuge! ”

The women laughed and made noise for a while before saying goodbye to Anu, and Li Xiaoyao heard one of the women say:

"It's really thanks to the Bai Miao people, there is only one well left and is willing to divide water for our Han people......"

"Yes, it would be nice if the black seedlings were defeated by the white seedlings."

"I told my mouth to join the army too! Help the white seedlings fight the black seedlings......"

Li Xiaoyao asked curiously, "Are they Han?" ”

Anu said: "Some Han people live nearby, and Hei Miao often robs and plunders them, and then they all gather here. ”

The Bai Miao people can make the Han people get along with them, but the Black Miao people are completely different, Li Xiaoyao recalled the Miao people who lived in his inn in the past, cruel and cunning, if the people of the Black Miao were like that, then it was no wonder that Anu would want to destroy them.

Only Feng Jie said: "Actually, the fifty-six nationalities are all one family......

Neither Anu nor Li Xiaoyao understood the meaning of Feng Jie's words......

In front of the road, you can see a large city with high walls, and under the blue sky, the gray city walls are even more dangerous and majestic, and the huge gate in it is more than ten feet high, and you can see it clearly from a distance.

Under the city gate, the track on the stone road is in order, but no one enters or leaves, only the gray wall and black door, standing quietly, looking extremely solemn.

The more he stepped forward, the more he saw a lot of people lying crookedly under the city wall, and when he got closer, Li Xiaoyao saw that they were all dead people!

Those people were lying under the city walls, some wearing soldiers' clothes, some ordinary people's clothes, the blood on their bodies was black, and their skin had long since dried up, and they could not give people the feeling of "people" at all, just like some kind of inconsequential animal corpses.

Although the corpses were decomposed to varying degrees, at first glance, it was clear that they were all young men. This point more or less aroused Li Xiaoyao's doubts, but looking at Anu's expressionless face, he didn't know whether to ask or not.

Feng Jie is different from Li Xiaoyao, he has personally experienced the battlefield, and the blood stained in his hands is enough to flood the Dali City in front of him. Right now, this white seedling and black seedling are at war, these corpses are disposed of here at will, naturally there is only one possibility, these people are all black seedlings.

It's just that no matter how many times he has seen the cruelty of this war, Feng Jie still has a sense of pathos from the heart......

There is a tiger in the heart, sniffing the rose.
