When they walked into Linchun Town, the sky was white.
The streets paved with bluestone slabs were full of fleeing people sleeping in a disorderly manner, some of them still had beds and broken straw mats under them, some of them slept on bluestone slabs like this, and some of them didn't even have any clothes, and they were bare-chested and only wore a pair of bullnose pants, all of them were unkempt, revealing their black hands and feet. Hearing the movement, some people looked up and continued to turn over and sleep, and some people sat up and looked at them as they walked past with blank expressions. A child next to him was awakened and cried "wow", which was particularly loud in the quiet midsummer morning of Linchun Town in Chapter 17. The child's mother immediately picked up the child and coaxed it softly, but the child's crying became louder and louder, and the mother undressed the child and breastfed the child. The child sucked the shriveled ** vigorously, and after a few strokes, he lost his nipple head and cried loudly. The man next to him jumped up violently: "Cry, cry, cry, you cry again, the boss will change you for meat and eat!" The mother's face turned pale, and she pressed the child's head tightly into her bosom, as if in this way the child's crying could be quieter. Then he stood up tremblingly and walked to the corner of the street where there were few people, and while stuffing the ** into the child's mouth, he kept muttering: "Don't cry, don't cry, be careful that your father changes you for meat!" ”
Fu Tingyun lowered his head sadly.
Ah Sen comforted her: "If he wanted to eat easily, he would have changed it a long time ago, and he wouldn't wait until he was only two days away from Xi'an Mansion to make this idea." ”
Walking next to them was one of Mo Yi's subordinates, who Mo Yi introduced as "Xiao Wu", a young man in the firm.
He heard Asen's words and stopped talking.
Ah Sen looked at it and smiled coldly, and said provocatively: "Could it be that I am not right?" ”
Last night, no, it should be said that around midnight this morning, Ah Sen smelled the faint smell of blood in Chapter 17 Linchun Town from a distance on the way back, he thought of the unconscious Zhao Jiuye and Fu Tingyun who had no power to restrain the chicken, his heart became uneasy, and he rushed to the City God Temple. As a result, the closer he got to the City God Temple, the stronger the smell of blood, and when he entered the main hall, he only saw the corpses in the hall, and he was frightened stupid...... If Fu Tingyun hadn't stopped him in time, he would have jumped into the pile of corpses to pick up people.
Knowing that Mo Yi was one of Zhao Jiuye's life-savers, he knelt down and kowtowed to Mo Yi nine times, hugged Zhao Jiuye's leg and cried: "It's all my fault...... If only I had come back sooner! ”
Zhao Jiuye smiled and touched his head: "Why did you come back earlier?" Be a target! The tone was gentle.
He became more and more guilty, lowered his head, and muttered: "As soon as I left the City God Temple, I felt as if someone was following me, and I walked around here several times, and finally threw the person off, and when I returned to the city, the person seemed to be following me again." I couldn't be angry, so I set a trap in the willow forest outside the town and teased him for a long time......" Ah Sen said, looked up at Zhao Jiuye, and reviewed it very seriously, "Jiuye, I won't dare to do it again in the future!" ”
"It's good to be back!" Zhao Jiuye smiled disappreciatively, as if he didn't take this matter to heart, and then said to Mo Yi, "Then it's troublesome to take care of Mo, let's go to Linchun now!" ”
Mo Yi looked fierce, and his expression at that time seemed a little stiff, but everyone didn't go to their hearts, packed up their things, Mo Yi helped Zhao Jiuye to get on the small cart, everyone went out of the City God Temple, Fu Tingyun and others found that Mo Yi still had two "little guys" beside him. The two guys are both ordinary-looking, and they belong to the type that you can't find when you walk in the crowd. One is in his early twenties, named Chen Liu, and the other is fifteen or sixteen years old, called Xiaowu. Both of them were dressed in short brown, but Chen Liu's body was clean, and Xiao Wu's body was dusty, and there was a big smell of feces on his body, which was very bad. Ah Sen's eyes straightened as soon as he saw Xiao Wu, and he was about to say something, but Zhao Liuye had already instructed Ah Sen: "It's almost dawn, if we meet someone from the official office, we can't wash it when we jump into the Yellow River." It's better to hurry up to Linchun Town! ”
Mo Yi also means this.
The group hurried.
, Ah Sen whispered to Fu Tingyun: "The person who followed me was tricked by me into falling into the dirt pit I dug - I pulled a pile of in the dirt pit. ”
Fu Tingyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "You, you ......"
Ah Sen was a little proud: "Who asked him to follow me." I treated him to a good meal! ”
Fu Tingyun endured it so that he didn't laugh out loud, but he also had some doubts in his heart.
But she believes in Zhao Jiuye the most. Such an obvious thing, since Zhao Jiuye didn't ask, there was naturally a reason not to ask.
"We'll talk about that later." Fu Tingyun whispered to Ah Sen, "There are Mo Yi and they are here!" ”
Ah Sen nodded, but he was always a little unhappy with Xiao Wu, from the City God Temple to Linchun Town, he either picked Xiao Wu or Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu's expression was very big, and he didn't look like he was in general with Ah Sen, which made Ah Sen even more annoyed.
This time, I picked a bone in the egg again, and I was embarrassed by Xiao Wu.
This time, Xiao Wu didn't smile like he had done a few times before, but he didn't have a strong tongue with Ah Sen, but said to Fu Tingyun with a straight face: "Everyone thinks it's good to go to Xi'an Mansion, but in fact, Xi'an Mansion is not as good as this Linchun Town!" Linchun Town still has a place to sleep, Xi'an Mansion sealed the city gate half a month ago, only allowed to go out and not allowed to enter, the official palace sent people to patrol every day, the city wall of fifty zhang and the like are not allowed to rest, violators are all beaten to death. Countless people starved to death, and the Jiuligou in the south of the city was about to become a mass grave. ”
Ah Sen and Ah Wu are fighting: "Xi'an Mansion is Shaanxi Mansion, is there no one who comes out to set up a porridge shed?" "Half-convinced.
Ah Wu snorted coldly: "If the official mansion doesn't come forward, who dares to set up a porridge shed privately?" ”
Fu Tingyun frowned: "Don't Lord Dong care?" ”
"Master Dong?" Ah Wu was quite disapproving, "He is now only thinking about how to tie up with his boss and the supervisor of the pen, and how to settle the prince Jian who took refuge in Xi'an Mansion, the emperor blames that there are good people to help speak, and he can shirk the responsibility, where is he still thinking about whether the surname of Shaanxi is dead or alive!" ”
Fu Tingyun and Ah Sen were silent thinking about what they had seen and heard on this.
Two teenage boys suddenly rushed out from the side: "Big Lord, Big Sister!" We haven't eaten all night, so please be good and eat your food! "A pair of eyes are very flexible.
Chen Liu, who was pushing the small cart, glanced at Mo Yi who was walking next to him with some hesitation, and Mo Yi shook his head gently.
There was a "coaxing" sound, and seven or eight children came running from nowhere, all of them in ragged clothes and skinny, shouting "Big Lord, big sister, good work" and surrounded them in the middle and stretched out their hands to ask for them, and some of them put their hands into the small cart.
"Get out of here!" Mo Yi shouted like thunder, grabbed one of the children and threw it onto the bluestone paved surface.
For a while, the whole street was quiet, and everyone looked at Mo Yi with a little fear in their eyes.
"Don't let the old man get out yet!" Mo Yi shouted again, and the children ran away as if they had been woken up.
Because of this, they successfully occupied the ownerless bunk.
Zhao Jiuye rested in the inner room upstairs with the help of Mo Yi and Chen Liu, and Fu Tingyun lived in the ear room next door.
"Please also ask Steward Mo to rest downstairs with Chen Liu and Ah Wu." Zhao Jiuye said apologetically, "I have a female dependent...... here"
Mo Yi was very simple: "Then if you have anything, just call me!" ”
"Thank you!" Zhao Jiuye clasped his fists at Mo Yi and saluted, instructed Fu Tingyun to clean the room, and asked Ah Sen to send Mo Yi and the others downstairs.
When the footsteps of Mo Yi and the others disappeared on the stairs, Zhao Jiuye said to Fu Tingyun, who was looking for rags all over the house: "You take a break, these things will be done when Ah Sen comes back!" ”
Didn't you ask her to clean the house?
Why do you say that you will wait for Assen to come back?
Fu Tingyun was a little puzzled.
Zhao Jiuye lay on the bed without a curtain with a pale face, and smiled at her: "I have something to tell you." ”
Rare mildness.
Do people become very weak when they are sick?
Fu Tingyun thought about it, and sat on a bench at the head of the bed: "Are you worried about Mo Yi and them?" So let them go downstairs and live. ”
There are four or five more rooms upstairs, and downstairs is where business is done, with only a shop and a small transept for stockpiling.
Zhao Jiuye nodded slightly, Ah Sen turned back, and when he saw Fu Tingyun sitting at the head of the bed, he immediately said, "Master, I'll go find a bucket of water!" ”
"I'll do it later!" Zhao Jiuye said: "You stay at the door, and if someone comes, let me know." He said to Fu Tingyun again, "You find out the name of the sixteenth master." ”
Ah Sen answered the call and stood guard in front of the door, Fu Tingyun found a post and handed it to him, because there was no bedding in the house, he put the burden wrapped in clothes behind his back, wanted him to see more clearly, and pushed open the window.
Outside the window is a dead forest, and you can see the post road of Lantian County in the distance, and there is a hot wind through the window.
This made Fu Tingyun very emotional: "There has been no wind for many days. And he said, "If this is a good year, I don't know how good the scenery will be!" ”
Zhao Jiuye smiled and didn't make a sound, and looked carefully at the name card in his hand.
Fu Tingyun looked at Zhao Jiuye.
He had a broad forehead and a straight nose, and he looked very intelligent. The lips are a little thin, and when you purse it, there is a kind of indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away, and when you smile, the corners of your mouth are slightly upturned, and your eyebrows reveal a bold and bold free and easy...... It still looks good when you laugh.
Perhaps sensing her gaze, or seeing the name card in his hand clearly, Zhao Jiuye suddenly raised his head and met Fu Tingyun's gaze staring at him.
Zhao Jiuye was slightly stunned: "What's wrong?" ”
Look at him this way...... It's not taboo at all...... They don't seem to have such a friendship yet...... I suddenly thought of what she said, "I have no choice but to say that we are an unmarried couple...... I felt a little uncomfortable and coughed softly.
Fu Tingyun's ears were hot.
It's really a ghost, just take a look, how to stare at him. Just stare at him, and let him touch the ...... What if he misunderstood that he was doing things casually...... I thought of her saying in front of the Sixteenth Master and others that they were an unmarried couple...... At that time, the matter was urgent, and we didn't have much to say, but now that we can talk alone, we have to find a chance to explain!!
