Chapter 23 Weinan

Because of this episode, Zhao Jiuye no longer dared to leave Ah Sen alone by Fu Tingyun's side. In this way, he couldn't go to explore the road alone, and it was inconvenient to take Fu Tingyun and Ah Sen with him, so he had to change the distance and try to follow the post road.

If Fu Tingyun felt what a thousand miles of barrenness was before, then now, she has seen with her own eyes what it is to be full of corpses.

"Don't look!" Zhao Jiuye blocked in front of her: "Didn't you bring a handkerchief?" Tie the veil to your face, the smell of corpses is permeated, and be careful of the epidemic. ”

Fu Tingyun let out a soft "um", took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and tied it to his face.

The weather was hot, because of the frequent wiping of sweat, and there was no place to wash, and the veil was full of sweat, but compared to the possibility of being infected with the epidemic, these became insignificant.

Her gaze couldn't help but drift to the side of the road again.

Under the scorching midday sun, the barkless tree had long since died, and the bare brown branches stretched out to the sky as if for help, and seven or eight shriveled corpses lay lying under the trees. The elder looked no more than forty-five or six years old, his sunken eyes were wide open, and his expression was unwilling; The young one was still held in his mother's arms, naked, his limbs were like reed sticks, the ribs on his chest were visible, and his big head hung weakly from his mother's arms, and his mother's clothes were stripped off by whom, revealing a body tied only to a belly pocket...... There is no dignity at all!

Fu Tingyun felt a chill in his heart, buried his head in the small cart and found a straw mat, no matter whose it was, handed it to Ah Sen: "Help that sister-in-law take it!" ”

Ah Sen took it in his hand and didn't move: "Miss Fu, we put it on her with the front foot, and someone came to pick it up on the back foot......"

"If you want to go, you will go!" It was Zhao Jiuye who spoke, "What are you talking so much about!" ”

Arsen immediately ran over.

Zhao Jiuye sighed and said, "Let's go!" ”

Fu Tingyun nodded sluggishly, sat on the small cart, and never dared to look up again.

At night, she couldn't sleep.

When I closed my eyes, the woman's image came to mind.

In just two or three days, Fu Tingyun lost a full circle.

Zhao Jiuye glanced at her and said, "I can get to Weinan in three days at most." ”

Fu Tingyun was overjoyed when he heard this. Thinking of my uncle's spacious house that is warm in winter and cool in summer, the bath water sprinkled with rose dew, and the clothes smoked with lily incense, my spirit is lifted a lot.

After walking like this for another three days, Fu Tingyun didn't even see the shadow of the city wall of Weinan County. Only then did she suddenly realize: "It turned out that Wangmei quenched her thirst!" ”

Zhao Jiuye smiled.

The smile softened his facial features and added a bit of kindness.

"How many days are there before we get to Weinan?" Fu Tingyun looked bold, and his tone couldn't help but be a little straightforward.

"Three days to go!" Zhao Jiuye said.

"Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much!" Fu Tingyun was having fun in pain, pretending to sigh helplessly, and joking with him.

Zhao Jiuye laughed, his bright eyes were like the morning stars in the sky, flashing with dazzling light, making his eyebrows and eyes fly.

Fu Tingyun was stunned.

On weekdays, Zhao Jiuye always has a straight face, gloomy, I didn't expect him to look so good when he smiled.

"There are really three days left to arrive this time!" Zhao Jiuye said, the smile still in his eyes was like a sparkling lake at sunset, and it was a little dazzling, which made Fu Tingyun's tense heartstrings suddenly relax.

It's just that the further they go, the more refugees they encounter.

Men can still push cars, children can still walk, women and children can still sit straight, at first glance, they are full of food and drink, Zhao Jiuye, Ah Sen and Fu Tingyun are so conspicuous in a group of yellow-faced and thin-skinny refugees, from time to time someone throws surprise, jealousy and even greedy glances at them, as if they are hiding some priceless treasure that people covet, which makes Fu Tingyun feel uneasy like sitting on pins and needles, and always feels that something dangerous will happen.

One day at noon, they were resting on the side of the road, and sure enough, something happened.

First four or five men in the prime of life rushed towards the cart from all sides, and then seven or eight more men in the prime of life followed...... Zhao Jiuye's Qi Mei stick danced vigorously, but those people followed one after another as if they didn't want to die, and after they were knocked down, someone pounced on them, and even surrounded them in the middle.

With so many men, looking at them with eyes as fierce as hungry wolves that saw food, Fu Tingyun's calves trembled.

Zhao Jiuye snorted coldly and instructed Ah Sen: "You protect the girl, let's go north." ”

To the north, it is the direction leading to Weicheng.

Ah Sen answered, holding the eyebrow stick to his chest.

Fu Tingyun hurriedly pushed the small cart.

Ah Sen was in front, Zhao Jiuye was behind, and they went north.

Those people knew how powerful Zhao Jiuye was, and they only attacked Ah Sen and Fu Tingyun.

Zhao Jiuye seemed to have back eyes, and whoever stepped forward hit him with a stick, and immediately hit the person to the ground and couldn't move.

After a few rounds, those people did not dare to step forward, and they did not want to give up, so they surrounded them in the middle and walked north for most of the hour, and some people began to get impatient and pounced fiercely.

Zhao Jiuye's eyebrows rose sharply, and at some point, two thin scimitars the size of willow leaves were sandwiched between his fingers, and they flew out and flew back like a lightning speed.

One of the people who pounced fell to the ground, and the bright red blood flowed out of his neck and gradually soaked into the earth, leaving a dark red.

The men froze.

I don't know how long it took, but someone came back to his senses and let out a scream, shouting "Murder!" Killed", retreated again and again, and some people still did not give up, standing there with their faces looking at each other.

Restlessness began to fill the air.

Zhao Jiuye's eyes became even colder, the lancet flew out of his hand again, and two more people fell.

Then the men began to be afraid, and scattered like birds and beasts.

Zhao Jiuye pushed Fu Tingyun and Ah Sen's footsteps and kept hurrying.

Two more robberies were encountered on the way.

For the first time, there were seven or eight people, and Zhao Jiuye directly used the lancet.

The second time was alone. He staggered to his feet and lunged at them, Arsen's brow-raising stick before he could lift his brow stick, and he fell to the ground weakly.

Fu Tingyun covered his eyes.

They took a path and traveled all night, and only rested by the roadside at dawn.

Fu Tingyun drank the water calmly, and in the morning light, he suddenly noticed that the trees around him were slightly different.

"Ninth Master, Ninth Master, look!" Fu Tingyun pointed to the trees on the side of the road in surprise, "There are green leaves!" ”

Zhao Jiuye and Ah Sen both raised their heads.

Two green leaves emerge from the dusty branches of the tree.

Ah Sen ran over and grabbed the leaves: "Master, look! ”

Zhao Jiuye's expression was grim, and he stood up straight and looked around.

Fu Tingyun looked at it and suddenly burst into his heart: "Ninth Master, isn't it good?" ”

"It shows that the situation here has eased." Zhao Jiuye's expression was grim, "Maybe Weinan County can still have a normal draft." But the more this happens, the more refugees want to be in Weinan County, and the more difficult it is for us to enter the city. ”

"Why are we going into town?" Fu Tingyun smiled, "Are we going to Fengyuan, not to Weinan County?" We can go directly from Lijiawa to Fengyuan! ”

Zhao Jiuye raised her eyebrows and motioned for her to be clear.

"In the past, when I came to visit my uncle, sometimes my mother felt that the gifts she had prepared were too simple and she didn't want my aunts and aunts to gossip, so I would go directly to Weinan from Huayin, and then go to Fengyuan after the gifts to be given to my uncle were ready. If you don't need to prepare too expensive gifts, you will go directly down the post road to the south, taking Lijiawa to Fengyuan. In this way, you can save the day. ”

Zhao Jiuye's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and he was obviously very happy with the news.

Fu Tingyun hurriedly said: "However, I don't know the way, I only know that I can go this way." ”

Zhao Jiuye looked at her with a somewhat strange expression, as if he wanted to laugh and endure it.

Fu Tingyun's face was a little unbearable: "I'm not in a car, where will I pay attention to these ......" looked displeased.

"Just ask someone!" Zhao Jiuye quickly said and told Ah Sen to protect Fu Tingyun carefully, and he went to the post road by himself.

After a while, Zhao Jiuye came back.

"The entrance to Li's house is not far ahead." He urged Fu Tingyun and Ah Sen to eat quickly.

"Won't you take a break?" Fu Tingyun looked at Zhao Jiuye in surprise.

He could have pushed her all night.

"It's better to hurry up and get to Fengyuan." Zhao Jiuye said, "It's too dangerous on the road. ”

Fu Tingyun thought of the fact that they were surrounded and robbed, his fingertips were cold, he hurriedly ate steamed buns and drank some water, and went on the road with Zhao Jiuye.

※※※※※

Lijiawa is a village, the village is inhabited by all the Li clan, and it is named because it is built in a hollow place in the hills.

They walked all the way, did not see a few people, stayed in Lijiawa Village, only to see the entrance to Lijiawa Village tree two people high log fence, several people tall villagers with big knives in front of the fence patrol, it looked very fierce, the wooden fence carried more than a dozen heads, blood dripping on the wooden fence, dried up into black and red.

This place looks like a village, and it is clearly a cottage that occupies the king's land.

Fu Tingyun was shocked and looked at Zhao Jiuye.

Zhao Jiuye's brows frowned slightly, and his expression was awe-inspiring: "It seems that the Li family has water and food." ”

Otherwise, the village would not have been closed to defend itself.

Fortunately, they were just passing by in front of the village.

Fu Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

The people near the wooden fence had already spotted them, and they all flocked to the front of the wooden fence, their big knives in their hands, and they were watching them with fierce eyes.

Zhao Jiuye pushed Fu Tingyun expressionlessly and walked a long way, and Fu Tingyun could still feel those people staring at her back, their eyes like knives.

Two teenagers walked up to him.

One of them wore a green cocoon silk straight, and the other wore a green lotus-colored cocoon silk straight, their hands were empty, their faces were pale, and their expressions were panicked, not like people fleeing.

Zhao Jiuye couldn't help but look back.

I saw the two teenagers walk quickly to the wooden fence in front of Lijiawa Village, and said loudly: "We belong to Aunt Fengyuan's eleventh aunt." Fengyuan was killed and plundered by the homeless, and only a dozen people including me escaped. Please also ask the patriarch to say that the ancestor is old, and he will be supported by his mother and other daughters, and ask the patriarch to send someone to answer the ......."

Fu Tingyun's brain was "buzzing".

Fengyuan was killed and plundered by the outcasts!

She jumped out of the cart and ran as fast as she could for the two teenagers.

But someone rushed ahead of her to the two teenagers.

"Two sons!" Zhao Jiuye's face turned a little blue, "I am a relative of the Fengyuan Xie family, and I went to take refuge in the ...... because of the disaster in my hometown."

Before he finished his words, the young man wearing a green cocoon silk with a tuotou head had already said "oops": "You are a relative of Xie Xiucai's family...... The Xie family has been slaughtered by the homeless! ”

Corrected a typo!
