Chapter 5: The Return of the Mourning Song
Chapter 5: The Return of the Mourning Song
The next day, Xiao Huang was helped out of the room, and Lian Mama and Xiaoxiang each carried a burden and followed on both sides.
Although the carriage was escorted when he fell to the bottom of the cliff, which slowed down the impact of the fall, the body rolled down the cliff and hit the sharp rocks on the cliff wall, and the continuous rotation and rupture also caused the person sitting in the carriage to have injuries of varying severity.
What's more, it fell in a deep pool, although it was a shallow place, but it also choked on a lot of sewage, and there was a mild lung infection, these words, Dr. Xu did not say to Xiao Huang, but privately told the general and his wife.
If it was Jimo Xiaohuang, who didn't know the art of medicine stones before, he naturally wouldn't know it, but now he ...... Who can hide from her so easily?
After walking through the ghost gate, it is fortunate to be alive, but Lian Huaying is still very cautious about her daughter.
"Xiao'er, for my mother, I have to go with your father to lead the army, and if there is anything, let people call my mother." Before getting into the carriage, she told her.
Turning around to leave, she seemed to remember her daughter's previous lively nature, and Lian Huaying couldn't help but instruct again: "Stay in the carriage obediently, don't be naughty, you know?" ”
"Hmm." Xiao Huang smiled back.
Perhaps it was the inexplicable warmth of her mother's embrace, and she found that she had no previous rejection of this sudden family affection.
In just a quarter of an hour, the sound of horseshoe palms on the ground, the sound of marching footsteps, and the sound of wheels turning could be heard outside the car window.
"Miss, are Kyoto and the border the same? Xiang has never been to Kyoto. As she got closer to her destination, Xiao Xiang's curiosity began to bubble up.
"Ten years have passed, Miss, where do I remember." The person leaning on the cushion prevaricated with his eyes slightly closed.
Suddenly, a short exclamation sounded in my ears.
Xiao Huang looked up, and she didn't know when Xiao Xiang opened the car window - anyway, she wasn't a person who could be idle.
But the "scenery" outside the carriage does have the ability to make people frightened!
I saw an army marching mightily on the official road, obviously separated from the team with the carriage.
What may be different from before crossing the Qisheng Cliff is that the horses of the cavalry are not carrying heroic soldiers, but white cloths that are constantly lined up, and the infantry are not holding tough and powerful spears, but a pair of temporary stretchers......
Such a stark contrast that even those with a little intellect could see that those who were carrying them immediately and carrying them on stretchers were corpses wrapped in white cloth.
However, after a short break, Xiao Huang already understood that I am afraid that under the cloth are all short-lived people who have broken the Strange Life Cliff.
Mama Lian reacted and hurriedly reprimanded: "You dead girl, don't hurry up and close the car window!" Don't let the young lady get dirty. ”
"Huh?! Oh good, okay! Xiao Xiang came back to her senses and immediately closed the window, and sat down beside Xiao Huang with palpitations.
"Hehe, it's fine." The latter tugged at the corners of his mouth, looking at Mama Lian's expression, he must have known about today's arrangement.
The dim light in the carriage made people drowsy, but Xiao Huang couldn't sleep at all, and the intention of the general and his wife not to bury those sacrificed soldiers on the spot was actually not difficult to guess.
One is to return to the roots.
Since ancient times, soldiers who died on the battlefield could only be buried on the battlefield, because they were too far from home, and they could only pray that the souls of the dead would find their way home, which was an extremely sad situation.
The soldiers died on the cliff of Qisheng, just a day's walk from the Imperial City, and the generals and his wife wanted to return their remains to their loved ones.
The second is the cause of death of these soldiers.
Qisheng cliff strange rocks, dangerous to fall, easy to defend and not easy to attack, and from a distance to see a side arch bridge, with a hugging posture will be Kyoto around the protection, so as a natural barrier of Xia Yu Imperial City.
Since it is such an important "city wall", how can the highest commander in the imperial city not pay attention to it and not control it?
But if you pay attention to it, why did such a disaster happen when the sons and daughters who defended the country returned to the court?
If it is a natural disaster, why did it happen on that day?
If it is said to be a man-made disaster, I am afraid that it is the speculation and temptation of the superiors.
The more I think about it, the more inextricably linked, and the cutting is still messy, I'm afraid that this time they want to seek justice, but it is difficult......
