Chapter 5: Under the Yellow Sand
Besides, Huang Xian, who was looking for his family, suddenly heard the sound of continuous collision of weapons in front of him, turned a slope, and saw that next to the forest on the right, a group of Hu people surrounded more than a dozen Han people to fight, the ground was full of corpses, a carriage with more than a dozen arrows inserted, dumped on the side, the curtain was full of blood, it seems that the owner has suffered an accident.
The Hu people are overwhelming, and they have the upper hand, but the Han people can no longer support it, and in the blink of an eye, there are only a few people left, and they are still struggling to resist.
Huang Xian touched the scene, thinking that his separated family members might have been killed by the Hu people, a fire of hatred rose, took off the iron rod, shouted to enter the encirclement, and all Zhuang Ding also flocked up.
Hu Ren was killed by surprise, lost most of them in an instant, did not dare to fight, whistled, and retreated in defeat.
was saddled off the horse by the rescued Han people, and thanked him for saving his life. Huang Xian scrutinized it carefully, there were five people, all about 20 years old, one of them, purple and red skin, beard, eyes flashing, quite powerful, so he asked his state origin. The man did not dare to slack off, and told the truth.
It turned out that this person's surname was Liu Mingjian, the son of Liu Xi, the Yanmen Taishou of the Jin Dynasty, during the rebellion of the Eight Kings, the imperial power was subverted, Liu Xi lived in the city to defend himself, and was broken by Shile, Liu Xi died in battle, Liu Jian was rescued by his father's cronies, and since then he has been living among the people, and has come to Xingyang County. Speaking of sadness, Liu Jian burst into tears, and a man of iron and stone actually sobbed.
Huang Xian comforted him, and then told him a little about what happened to him, and then asked Liu Jian and others to go along, and the five of them happily agreed, Liu Jian said: "Lord Lingzun may have taken a secluded path to avoid robbery, it is better to return to the place of separation, and look separately at the fork in the road, or you can find traces." Huang Xian felt reasonable, so he led the crowd to go back.
All the way 100 miles, the scene along the way is unbearable, men, women and children blood loess, dead bodies everywhere, 200,000 people, almost dead. Everyone was filled with anger, gritted their teeth, and their blood was boiling, and they wanted to eat their flesh and skin, and their bones and ashes were scattered. When he met the person who was lucky enough to save his life, whether old or young, Huang Xian took him in, and ordered someone to share some dry food with them to satisfy their hunger, and the team soon increased to more than 200 people.
At ten o'clock at noon, when he arrived at the place of separation, Huang Xian asked people to look for them separately at the fork in the road, and sure enough, he found the car his parents were riding in more than ten miles northeast, but he didn't see his family, and he thought that his parents had been killed, and he couldn't help crying.
Liu Jian and others persuaded: "The damage to the car does not mean that people have suffered, and it is not known that Ling Zun and others abandon the car and walk, the good luck is undecided, and the son should not be too sad." Everyone woke up Huang Xian with a word, he stopped his tears, and led everyone to continue to search nearby.
After looking for an hour, there was still no trace of his family, Huang Xian was a little impatient, led people to look in the direction of the vehicle, walked more than ten miles, and saw a village in the woods on the left side of the road, so he led everyone into the village to visit.
Before entering the entrance of the village, a bloody breath came to the face, which made people shudder, the streets were dead and empty, and the courtyards facing the street were mostly open, which added to the tension. The two sturdy Zhuang Ding had the courage to enter the hospital to investigate, and as soon as they entered the door, they returned, their faces were purple, their expressions were strange, and they said: "There are dead bodies inside." ”
Huang Xian was shocked in his heart, and secretly thought: Could it be that the Hu people also washed this village in blood. Hurriedly dismounted and admitted to the hospital for inspection, if you don't look at it, you can see it, and when you look at it, you are angry and fight the bull, it is really angry and even the liver and lungs are broken and the teeth in the mouth are broken.
There were dozens of corpses of young girls piled up in the courtyard, all naked and naked, with flesh and blood on their lower bodies, and their chests pierced by sharp blades. These girls were obviously taken captive by the Hu people, and were brutally murdered by many people.
Huang Xian was secretly resentful, and suddenly someone came in and said: The body of the girl was also found in other courtyards. When Huang Xian heard this, the anger in his heart was unbearable, and he stomped three feet on the locust tree in the courtyard, only to hear a click, the locust tree was broken at the waist, the crown was upside down and erected on the wall, and the branches kept shaking above his head, he did not dodge, he took a deep and shallow breath, and his anger was still unstoppable.
Everyone was furious, and they all wanted to find Hu Ren desperately. Suddenly, a cold wind arose, and clouds were closed, and snow began to fall in the sky. The snow fell heavier and heavier, and in a moment it covered the ground, blurring the outlines of the maidens' corpses, and the earth was silent.
The crowd stood motionless in the snow, and although they were wearing summer clothes, they did not feel cold. Goose feather-like snowflakes flew all over the sky, like paper money to pay tribute to the dead, and the howling cold wind was just like the grieving souls of the deceased crying to their loved ones, and the whole village was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere of grief.
After a while, the snow began to lighten, then stopped, and the sky cleared again, and the afternoon sun shone on the snow, piercing everyone's eyes.
Huang Xian said loudly to everyone: "Folks, the snow is flying in June, and God also knows the grievances of the death of our Chinese people! At present, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty is weak, and he has gone to the Central Plains in all directions, robbed my land, killed my people, and my dignified Chinese sons and daughters were arbitrarily slaughtered. There is no way out of escape, and forbearance is connivance at the murderous Hu people. In the first year of the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu were in trouble for the frontier, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty worked hard to enrich the country and strengthen the army. Now we are being bullied by the Hu people because we are too cowardly. We must be strong, work together, eliminate the four yi, use the blood of the Hu people to pay tribute to the souls of these innocent victims, regain the land left by our ancestors, help the Jin Dynasty restore the Central Plains, and revive the majesty of our well-dressed Chinese people. ”
Huang Xian's words were impassioned, exciting, and excited, and everyone said in unison: "Eliminate Siyi and revitalize the majesty!"
A white-haired old man hesitated and said: "Now in the Central Plains, the thieves are numerous, the four are combined, not to mention the millions, we and others have been hit hard, hungry and weak, and unable to fight with the thieves. As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but sigh, and they all frowned, not knowing where to stay.
Liu Jian said: "Huang Gongzi, fellow villagers, I heard rumors that one hundred and ten miles away, there is an iron fence mountain in the south, and there is a killing Hu village on the mountain, and the owner of the village is named He Kui. Ten years ago, He Kui led the tribesmen to move south, was robbed by the Hu thieves, most of the dead and wounded, then escaped to Tielan Mountain with his people, set up a village in the mountains, farming and hunting for a living, and the Hu people were enemies on weekdays, a radius of 100 miles, the Hu people were frightened, because the Tielan Mountain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Hu people had no way to take him. Why don't we go and take refuge, we can not only settle down and die, but also kill the thief to take revenge. The crowd agreed.
Huang Xian was hesitating, and Liu Jian said again: "Huang Gongzi, Tielan Mountain is not far from here, and it is convenient to listen to Ling Zun's whereabouts." ”
Huang Xian hesitated to find his family, and after listening to Liu Jian's words, he said: "Only in this way, when we bury these girls, we will go to He Kui." ”
Huang Xian ordered someone to dig a big pit at the head of the village to bury the dead girl, and then led everyone to Tielan Mountain.
