5 The black-robed monster
Marching to fight with a newborn baby is simply playing with your life.
But let the eldest Wei leave this child, he can't do it.
With the sound of gunfire, the night sky was like a Lantern Festival, stray bullets whistled past the ears, and the machine guns in the opposite bunker spewed out tongues of fire again, and the soldiers who rushed to the front immediately drank the bullets and died.
"Elder Wei, you hurry up and make up your mind, we don't have time, the wounded soldiers are still waiting for me to rescue them!" Xiao Xu's young face was full of anxiety, and the screams of her comrades-in-arms who were injured came and went, endlessly, tugging at her heart.
The elder Wei was holding the baby in his arms and was at a loss.
"Xiao Xu, what are you still rubbing, hurry up and save the injured comrades!" Ye Xintian urged Xiao Xu in a hoarse voice.
Xiao Xu, the hygienist, hurriedly stepped on the medicine box and suggested to the elder Wei: "Hurry up and take the children to the village to hide, they will come to pick you up!" So saying, he hurried towards the river.
The baby in his arms let out a crisp cry, and Da Lao Wei closed his eyes, how could he, an unmarried man, take care of a newborn baby?
At this time, the voice of the old sect leader Ah Sili sounded in his ears: "This child's fate, he will not give up his life easily!" ”
Not a baby is willing to give up his life, how can he, a highly educated revolutionary, give up so easily!
The eldest elder Wei held the child in his arms, kept wandering, and when the gunshots were sparse, he came to the riverside.
The calm river emitted this thick bloody gas, and the opposite side was lit with fires, and only sporadic gunshots rang out from time to time.
He closed his eyes again and looked across the river, his comrades should have crossed the river, although the enemy was outnumbered, but far less brave than his comrades.
The surface of the river sparkled, and countless black shadows surfaced from beneath the water.
He could see more clearly, some people with black cloth bags in their hands, all the black shadows wandering on the river, and then they were ready to go downstream.
"Can I see something from another world? Or do you see a different side of the world yourself? ”
Elder Wei hurriedly stretched out his right hand and waved at these black shadows.
The person closest to him threw a black thing into the cloth bag and was about to leave, but Old Wei couldn't help but shout: "Hey, who are you?" ”
These people couldn't see the beckoning of Elder Wei, but they heard his shout.
The man closest to him turned his head to reveal a strange face. The man walked slowly towards him from the river.
Da Lao Wei has been wandering in the mountainous areas inhabited by ethnic minorities for more than a year, and has encountered all kinds of ethnic minority compatriots, some of whom have painted their faces very terrifyingly, such as the god stick of the Qili tribe, but the face of the black-robed man in front of him is only half smeared.
The other party's miserable white hand clenched the black cloth bag tightly, and asked him, "Are you asking me?" ”
The voice was a little hoarse and a little desolate.
Elder Wei said: "Of course, is there anyone else here?" ”
The other party looked curiously at the baby in his arms, and when Mo Yin met this person, he stopped crying.
The black-robed strange man replied unhurriedly: "You are the same as my robe, but you are not the same kind as us, who are you?" ”
The elder Wei changed the baby in his arms into a comfortable position and hugged him, and replied unhurriedly: "Me? It doesn't matter who I am, who you are, what's in the bag? ”
The other party laughed twice, then stretched out his white hand and touched the baby in the arms of the elder Wei, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated.
But a golden light emanated from the baby, brushing the man's fingers away.
"Are you from the Ghost Sect?"
Elder Wei nodded in response and said, "I'm not, but he is!" ”
The other party looked at the child in his arms and said, "Since you can see me, then I don't have to hide my identity from you, we are ghosts in the underworld, but there is a war in the mortal world, we are responsible for collecting these souls after the death of the war." ”
The black-robed strange man opened the cloth bag in his hand, and the elder Wei hurriedly looked into the cloth bag, only to see that there was a bag of fresh fish inside, and some of the fish were still struggling.
Elder Wei wanted to ask in more detail, but the other party had already closed the bag, and instead asked him: "Where are you going to go with this child?" ”
He said: "I am not a disciple of the Ghost Sect, so naturally I want to be with my comrades-in-arms, I will go wherever they go, and I will participate in the battle with them!" ”
The black-robed weird man couldn't help but sneer: "Do you think you are Changshan Zhao Zilong, you can take Adou out of death and into life, from Cao Ying seven in and seven out?" ”
The elder Wei said again: "I will never leave this child behind, I promised the old sect master's entrustment, I must take this child to a safe place, but I can't leave my comrades-in-arms, I am a revolutionary soldier, I must not be left behind, absolutely not!" ”
The other party nodded and said, "It turned out to be the entrustment of the old sect master of the Ghost Sect, then I can give you a skill to defend yourself!" ”
"What self-defense?"
"You close one eye and look at me!" The other party said.
Elder Wei closed his right eye and looked at the man.
Half of the black-robed stranger's face was as white as paper, and half of his face was covered with texture, like a scar. A golden light shot out from his left eye, piercing directly into the right eye of the Great Elder Wei.
When Elder Wei was surprised, the other party signaled that he didn't need to panic.
"When you close your right eye, your right eye can see a stone's throw away, and if there's an obstacle in front of you, your vision can penetrate the obstacle."
The elder Wei couldn't believe it, and hurriedly turned around to look across the river, he saw that a red flag had been planted on the enemy's command post, his comrades-in-arms were cleaning the battlefield and gathering the enemy's corpses together, the hygienist Xiao Xu was busy rescuing the injured comrades-in-arms, and Ye Xintian had already arranged for some soldiers to return to the river by boat.
"I can really see from afar!" The elder Wei was a little excited, but the black-robed strange man said: "I gave you this skill to let you detect the danger early, and then dodge it early, and you must not fight with a strong enemy!" ”
Elder Wei nodded in response, and the other party bit his index finger again and pointed at his eyebrows.
Such a move was the same as the old sect master's treatment of Mo Yin, so the eldest elder Wei did not refuse, he felt that a little chill had penetrated his skull and entered his head.
"I have left the mark of our clan in the center of your eyebrows, and if you meet my accomplices in the future, they will not embarrass you!" The black-robed weirdo said.
The morning star rose in the night sky in the east, and the black-robed strange man said to the elder Wei: "The sky is about to dawn, and your companion is about to come back to pick you up, I have to go!" ”
The elder Wei was still a little reluctant to give up on this black-robed weird man he had just met, but the other party had already stepped on the river, went down the river, and was soon submerged by the river.
He held the baby tightly in his arms, and his wide black robe blocked the night breeze on the river.
A group of fighters rocked the boat and leaned against the shore, leaving one man to watch the boat, and the rest jumped out of the boat and landed on the shore.
"Comrade Elder Wei, why are you still by the river?" A fighter asked him.
Elder Wei knew this warrior, Tong Wanjie, the most clever member of the team, who came from Jiangxi with him.
"There is no boat, I am still holding the child, how can I cross the river?"
Tong Wanjie said: "You get on the boat first and wait, we have to pick up other comrades, and then we will cross the river by boat together." ”
The elder Wei responded, and then took the child to the boat, and in this flat boat, he rested his head on the oars for a short rest.
The boat is like a cradle, drifting in the wind.
Leaving to watch the ship was another warrior, who didn't know him very well, but when he saw him holding a baby in his arms, he couldn't help but ask.
"I picked it up on the road." The elder Wei still said this, and then asked the soldier about the battle situation on the other side of the river.
The little soldier's eyes were red, but he still introduced in good spirits: "Fortunately, our artillery took out the enemy's bunker in advance, and we only encountered a small group of enemy resistance, and these hateful reactionaries turned around and fled as soon as they saw our large force landing on the shore, but our soldiers also suffered a small number of casualties. ”
Elder Wei was very relieved when he heard this, so he closed his eyes and asked, "Then where is our main force?" ”
The little warrior stared at him and said, "How do I know, it should be right behind us!" ”
At dawn, Tong Wanjie and his comrades-in-arms covered a group of women and children to rush to the river, and then boarded the boat, Tong Wanjie kicked Da Lao Wei's shoulder with his foot, waking him up: "Da Lao Wei, it's time to get up!" ”
Da Lao Wei opened his eyes, and the first thing he looked at was the baby in his arms, perhaps he was woken up by the people on the boat, and the baby cried again.
A woman with a baby in her arms sat down across from him, and Mo Yin's cry caused the child in the woman's arms to cry as well.
Both of them coaxed the child at the same time.
"Comrade, can you see if the child is peeing or hungry?" The woman, who was carrying a baby in her arms and had a lot of experience, proposed to the elder Wei.
Da Lao Wei's hand reached into the baby's swaddling clothes, touched something sticky, and immediately understood that the child was squirming.
Tong Wanjie and his comrades-in-arms rocked the boat, the elder Wei was a little at a loss, and the woman opposite took out her handkerchief and handed it to him: "You put my handkerchief on the child first, what about the child's mother?" ”
Da Lao Wei said: "I picked up this child on the side of the road, so I don't have a father. ”
Tong Wanjie introduced to the elder Wei: "This comrade is Chen Tiemu's lover Gong Qingzhi, Comrade Tiemu is responsible for reconnaissance of the enemy, although it is very inconvenient to bring his family, but after all, it is safer. ”
Elder Wei hurriedly nodded to Gong Qing's diagnosis.
Gong Qingzhi put his child in his arms to breastfeed, and the eldest elder Wei hurriedly twisted his head to the side again, and at this time the boat had reached the center of the river, and the red flag on the opposite side was still fluttering in the wind.
Tong Wanjie continued to introduce while being in charge of vigilance: "This is Comrade Wei, the elder, who just came to meet us yesterday. ”
Elder Wei also introduced himself: "I was instructed by my superiors to do the work of ethnic minority compatriots in the mountainous areas, and when I heard your news, I hurriedly came and picked up this child on the way. ”
Gong Qingzhi changed his child's diaper, wrapped it, handed it to Tong Wanjie to hug, and then picked up the child in the arms of the elder Wei, saying: "This child is so pitiful, he must be hungry!" ”
