Chapter 286: Lanterns

Chen Qiubai actually knew that this monk was not very simple, but he didn't expect that this monk, who looked a little sick and limped when he walked, would be so fast with his light exercises. So much so that Chen Qiubai felt as if this person was flying!

So Chen Qiubai used his strength to eat milk and followed behind the monk.

But I felt that I couldn't keep up at all, and in a few blinks of an eye, I was left behind by the selection of the monk of the clear space. All of a sudden, he was thrown out of a good distance!

Gradually, Chen Qiubai was already so tired that he couldn't breathe, and the distance between him and the great monk was getting farther and farther. From a distance, even the faint candlelight of the lantern in the hand of the great monk became more and more blurred.

However, just when Chen Qiubai was about to give up and continue to follow the monk, the great monk stopped by himself!

I have to say that this is probably what God meant, telling him to continue to follow this pure space monk!

Therefore, Chen Qiubai did not intend to disobey the will of heaven, and gradually caught up again......

At this time, the monk of the clear sky ran all the way and flew to a village. Then he stopped in this village, but this monk seemed to be a little late.

Because it's as if the village has just been ransacked.

I saw that several houses in this village, which were still intact, were "crackling" and burning at this time, and they must have been set on fire! But fortunately, there are no people in these houses.

Because, people are out there! These people are out there...... The most conspicuous ones are the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law, who are lying in the middle of the village in disheveled clothes at this moment, one by one, with empty eyes and blank expressions, as if they are dead ashes, lifeless. It looks like he's still alive, but it's almost like he's dead.

Obviously, these are still young and beautiful women, one of them is counted as one, and they have just been raped!

And not far from these young women, there were some young men lying on their sides in twos and threes, these men were lying on the ground weakly, looking like they had no breath, and they should be considered dead.

This is quite understandable, their wives or daughters were pulled out of the village and forced, as men, of course they want to resist, but helplessly, the other party's force is too strong, and the resistance is ineffective. Instead, he attracted the scourge of killing, so these people died one by one!

As for the remaining few, they are still alive, basically some old people and children, or people with weak personalities and no wives and no daughters!

"Amitabha! Good, good, good! Seeing the scene in front of him, a tragic scene like hell, the monk couldn't help but recite a Buddha name. Then the monk grabbed an old man who was still in good condition and asked, "Old man, may I ask what happened in the village?" It's going to be like this. ”

The old man sighed and said, "What else can there be, isn't it just the ghosts of those Mongolian soldiers, every time these Mongolian soldiers attack Xiangyang, they often go around grabbing money and food, and then ...... Then these people robbed the money and food, not counting, but they still raped women, of course, the young and middle-aged people in our village stopped doing it, and one by one they went up to fight with the Mongolian Tatars. But those Mongolian Tatars have knives and guns in their hands, and those young men in our village are bare-handed and empty-handed! How could it be an opponent, in a few rounds, these people were killed by the Mongolian Tatars! Miserable...... It's miserable! As for me, I am just a lonely old man, my wife died early, a son died a few years ago because of the war, and I have a daughter, I let her marry far away to the south. So I was the only one who lived here, and when I saw the Mongols coming, I fled far away, so that I could survive. ”

"I see! These Mongolian soldiers, not to mention the siege of the city for the time being, actually kill people everywhere, set fires, and kidnap women, which is really hateful! Tell me, how many of the Mongol soldiers who have plundered here are there, and where are they now? The monk said angrily, it seems that no matter how good the monk is, there are times when he gets angry.

The old man said, "Those Mongol soldiers...... They had entered the village just an hour earlier, when it had just darkened, and had left only half an hour earlier, heading northwest. Why, great monk, are you going to settle accounts with these Mongolian Tatars? This is absolutely unacceptable, their group of Mongolians wearing armor and knives, there are also forty or fifty people, you are an old and frail monk master, if you go, it will be a dead end, you can't beat them at all, don't do stupid things. ”

Then, the monk continued: "It's a pity that I have something important to do now, and I really can't pull away. Otherwise, I will definitely go and meet these Mongols for a while. ”

"Master, dealing with a group of Mongols, why do you need to go in person, I, Chen Qiubai, am willing to do it for you!!" Just when the monk was a little hesitant and undecided. But suddenly I heard such a voice coming from behind, there is no doubt that the person who said this must be Chen Qiubai.

It turned out that Chen Qiubai was far behind the monk of the clear space, and he was about to lose it, Chen Qiubai regretted that he couldn't learn the secret of this old monk, and was about to give up. On the way, the monk saw a village with fire in many places, and thought about this village...... Is something wrong, please? So I went over to take a look, but I didn't expect to encounter the tragic situation after the Mongolian Tatars killed people and slaughtered the village.

Therefore, the monk planned to personally take action and destroy this small group of Mongolian soldiers. But right now, the Pure Space Monk is the first to have an appointment with someone, and the person who has an appointment with the Clear Space Monk is not trivial. If you go late, I'm afraid it will bring some trouble! But if we don't catch up with that group of Mongol soldiers and kill them all now, when they return to the Mongol camp, it will probably become a needle in a haystack, and it will not be so simple to find them again.

Just didn't expect that at this time. A Chen Qiubai actually appeared from behind, and this Chen Qiubai also said that he was willing to replace the monk and kill this group of Mongolian Tatars.

The monk turned around, looked at Chen Qiubai, and then said with some surprise: "You...... You came here with me? ”

Chen Qiubai nodded and said: "I was wandering around the temple, but I didn't expect to meet a lantern shining in the darkness, so I followed this lantern and came here!" Then I saw the scene just now, so I volunteered to come and explain to the great monk that I was willing to go and destroy that group of Mongol soldiers to avenge the Han people who died in this village. ”
