Chapter 169: Oath of the Wilderness (I)
After listening to Lin Shaoge's words, he was empowered.
Yesterday, she had been struggling, not knowing whether to leave those people's lives behind.
Now that she understands, before making a decision, she will naturally understand what to do by looking at her heart clearly.
She looked at him quietly, looking him into her heart, and she knew that no matter what happened in the future, he would always be the pure land in the depths of her heart, a blue sky, a little sun that was the brightest.
Finally, she sighed in satisfaction and rested her head on his shoulder.
The two held hands and stared at the wasteland.
The night was deep, and the sky was indeed like a cauldron lid, covering the whole land. In the distance, there were a few crooked dead trees. In this way, it seems that the heart of man has become empty, and even the calf lies quietly, neither sleeping nor moving. The night breeze was slightly cool, because of the troubles, they did not make a fire, and the two of them and a cow were in a safe corner, enjoying this gift of nature.
A few flashes of fire suddenly appeared in the distance, quickly approaching them.
Bang Yue was a little nervous and quietly held her breath.
The group rode horses and soon came not far away.
The leader lowered his voice a little and was talking about things: "I didn't expect that the people in a village are all hard bones, and they won't spit out half a word like that." I think eighty percent of this was done by the old man's people. ”
A person next to him sighed: "Brother Zhang Yue, Master Long sent a few of our brothers to chase people, this is clearly pushing us into the fire pit, I told you early in the morning, Master Long can't trust the people in our village." You see, in the past two months, the dead are the brothers in the village. ”
The leader who was called Brother Zhang Yue sighed heavily: "What can you do?" Who told Wu Erxiong to pretend to be obedient, but in fact, he was holding his breath to avenge his daughter-in-law? Long Ye was almost castrated into a female dragon by him, can he not hold a grudge against our village? Don't mention this matter again, Master Long is kind to me......"
After a pause, he confessed: "If you catch up with people for a while, be smart, don't let them know what we do." In case it's really the old man's person, let's just say that it's the nearby farmers, and just give them the money. The old man only wants money, but he has never heard of harming the people. ”
"Brother Zhang Yue, otherwise, let's go to the old man and get ......"
There was a terrible silence.
Because they found that the hoof prints of the cow that had followed all the way had come to an abrupt end.
A few torches moved very slowly, very slowly, to the side of the road.
“***!” The man at the head burst into a foul language, jumped to his feet and scolded: "With the wrong person!" ”
A harmless-looking peasant couple leaned on the cow, looking at them with a blank face.
"You, you two!" He pointed his torch at the two.
"Hey, big brother, what's the matter?" The man stood up.
"Have you seen ......" scratched his head, "a cow, several people, with swords on their bodies...... Well...... Tall and mighty, at first glance, he is a practitioner? ”
"How many people? Eldest brother. Lin Shaoge's face was simple.
"How do I know a few people! Just ask if you see it! ”
"Big brother, you don't know how many people there are, how do I know if I see it?" Lin Shaoge spread his hands innocently.
"Poof!" Bang Yue and the people next to her couldn't help but snicker together.
"Bad luck!" The leader spat on the head.
"Big brother, what do you say, maybe I can give you an idea?" Lin Shaoge leaned forward.
The leader waved his hand: "Open up, open up." The soldiers are in chaos, there is nothing to wade into the muddy waters, don't you think your life is long? I didn't see anyone, did I? ”
Shaoge was silent for a moment, smiled lightly, and left the hilt of the sword with his hand.
"I didn't see it."
The man nodded, and commanded the group to turn around and leave.
When the few points of firelight were far away, Bang Yue exhaled softly and leaned on Shaoge.
"So you're soft-hearted." She looked at him with a smile. In fact, when I heard the last sentence of this person named Zhang Yue just now, Bang Yue also had a little affection for him.
"The way of the world forces people into ghosts." He smiled coldly, "The emperor doesn't like to listen to the truth, and the officials deceive the superiors and subordinates, Jiangdong ...... Now it has become hell, and people are ghosts, and ghosts are people. If they are all cut off, there will be nothing left......"
Bang Yue sighed long: "Shaoge, you are ready to cross the common people in Jiangdong, are you?" ”
"That's a monk's business." His eyes were dark.
"Shaoge......" Bang Yue lowered her eyes, "What is Xuanyuan Zhenyu going to do...... Will it turn the whole world into hell? ”
His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he didn't answer.
"You can't see anything like that. Shaoge, you are a good person. ”
Lin Shaoge smiled: "Wrong." I'm not a good person. ”
She gently took his hand: "I don't want to see this world turn into hell." Shaoge, what I have seen and heard in the past few days has made my heart blocked and very uncomfortable. If it weren't for this flood...... For example, that Hong Sanniang is just an ordinary woman who can't get married and serves her old mother wholeheartedly, at most, she is lonely and lonely when no one is there at night, and scolding men in the world is not a good thing, for a lifetime, that's all. She is like this, and the rest of the people are not like that. ”
She paused, "But it's not the flood that's happening. There is nothing wrong with natural disasters, Shaoge, you said that there is no good or evil in water, and there is no good or evil in the Tao. The way of heaven is ruthless, and it is the human heart that is wrong. If the emperor is not such a happy character, if the officials in Jiangdong are not so concerned about their own black hats, regardless of the lives of the people, if they are willing to face this disaster, work together to provide disaster relief, one side is in trouble and all sides are supportive, where will Jiangdong become hell? Shaoge, that day, when I saw those tragic things, I hated, I couldn't wait to burn the people of Hong Sanniang to ashes, and now, I saw more things, in my heart, the red lotus karmic fire was not extinguished, but I couldn't do anything. ”
She raised her hands and put them in front of her eyes to look: "I'm so weak, if it weren't for you, I'd just be a duckweed, and if that kind of disaster befell me, I wouldn't have the ability to resist fate at all." Seeing those who have been swept up in the maelstrom, I know that I am just luckier than them. Peace, peace. Shaoge, am I ridiculous? is obviously incapable, but he still wants to be a savior. ”
She choked up suddenly. Cover your face with your hands and slowly lower your head to your knees.
"Little Er, what do you want?" His voice was slightly moved.
Her voice came weakly from between her fingers: "I want this world to become peaceful and prosperous, and I want everyone to be treated gently by fate." ”
"Okay." His voice was low and solemn.
His warm palms wrapped around her shoulders and forced her to lift her eyes and make eye contact with him.
There was a smile on his lips and two stars in his eyes.
He grabbed her shoulders and looked deep into her eyes.
His voice was solemn and fiery: "I will call you the world you want." ”
Bang Yue took a deep breath and looked at him in shock. Her lips twitched slightly, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
And he said to her in such a barren field,
If you want the world, I'll call you......
