Chapter 5: Murderous Intent
Tear...... The dry food was torn in half and sprinkled on the ground, and the two people competing for the bag took two steps back violently under the force of inertia. When people saw this, they pounced. Yichen's body was originally small, and his movements were also agile, and he was the first to pounce under the dry food, holding the food in front of him with both hands, and at this moment he felt that his body was pressed by a thousand catties of weight, and the crowd was like a hill.
Yichen screamed with his hands pressed, but he still didn't let go, lying on the ground, and crawled out with his feet in the crowd, and the crowd was still fighting for food in the crowd.
He didn't eat the food in his hand, but took off the tattered fabric on his upper body, and then wrapped the food in the tattered clothes and ran desperately.
Yichen returned to a dilapidated grass hut, which was very spacious, but the roof was close to nothing, and calculated that He Xinran should come here to feed at this time. This is the place where the Wu family feeds the livestock, and the Wu family's livestock are all in charge of feeding by He Xinran, and Wu Changde felt that feeding these livestock in this yard was too undignified, so he built another wall on the side of the backyard, which was regarded as dividing up a small piece of land for feeding livestock.
There is a wooden door on the inside of the hut that does not have any workmanship leading to the backyard of the Wu family. A middle-aged woman slowly walked out of the wooden door with the miscellaneous grains for feeding livestock in her hand, and saw Yichen in front of her at a glance, He Xinran looked Yichen up and down, his clothes at this time were not only more gray than yesterday, but also opened a few more openings, and he was annoyed for no reason, and asked: "Yichen, I ran there again, didn't cause any trouble, right?"
"Mother.." Yichen trotted to He Xinran's side, his face covered with dust showing his white teeth, and he smiled and clasped his hands, but the dirty boy had a bit of a cute feeling at the moment.
"Look at you, you went out to fight with people again?Why is your hand swollen like this!?" And Yichen originally wanted to surprise He Xinran, but this mood was instantly erased, and then he took out the food and was about to let his mother eat it, when a chubby man followed by a large group of people with guys and walked into the backyard. This person is naturally Wu Changde, his luxurious clothes are conspicuously stained with a few drops of blood, he can keep his family in this lifeless and angry village, and he is naturally a lawless bully here, who is talking about his rights and wrongs behind his back, or hitting his attention, as long as it reaches his ears, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.
Wu Changde's face was tense, it seemed that the arrogance in his heart had not yet dissipated, he walked quickly and grabbed the food in Yichen's hand and slammed it on the ground, then turned around and slapped He Xinran, and said angrily: "Look at you, it's been so long!!I haven't cleaned it up yet, it's good for Lao Tzu to adopt you!!How many times have I said it, don't bring this wild boy into the yard, look at him!Bring these dirty things to the house again!." Yichen's eyes showed anger, but he just quietly watched this scene at this time.
He Xinran bent down desperately and bowed, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry!
Wu Changde snorted coldly, pointed at He Xinran and said, "You really don't want to stay, right, today's and tomorrow's food is gone, if you don't accept it, get out of me!" Wu Changde withdrew his fingers, stood with his hands on his back, turned to leave, and the group of people behind him followed closely.
He Xinran touched his red and swollen face with his right hand and choked twice, then turned his head and said: "Yichen, don't do such a dangerous thing in the future, we still have something to eat here, if you have an accident, what should I do?"
Yichen lowered his head and stopped talking, looking at Wu Changde who was far away from the corner of his eyes.
In the evening, in the grass hut, the sound of crickets was complicated, as if it was their world at night, Yichen slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
In the dark night, the deathly silence of the streets is terrifying, let alone such a desolate place.
"Hey!" Yichen suddenly stopped, and looked at a collapsed house in the distance, saying that it was a house, let alone a broken ground full of stones, bricks and tiles, and the houses in the inner circle were flawed under the wind and sand, and the best way was to search for the bricks and tiles from these abandoned houses that looked at Huaqi from the periphery, and in this way, a house was half collapsed by the wind, and half of it was dismantled, and it became such a pile of rubble.
One stood up, and beside him sat six young men in their twenties. The person standing looked at Yichen with a bit of interrogation on his face, and said, "Have you found the Wu family's property?"
Yichen said: "No, I can't enter his house at all." ”
The young man was even more annoyed when he heard this, and asked, "Ahh ”
Yichen hesitated, looked at the young men behind him, and said, "I'll open the gate tomorrow night, don't you have guys, kill them, and we'll look for them slowly." ”
"Kill..."The young man was shocked, in this kind of place, it is common to see people who are starved to death, and who will have nothing to do for others, let alone in this desert place, but Wu Changde's subordinates, I am afraid that all the people in the village will rush up, and they will not be able to bargain.
"That's all there is to it. A man behind the young man suddenly stood up and said, the young man was stunned when he heard this, and quickly turned to the man and yelled, "Are you crazy?"
The man ignored the young man beside him, turned his gaze to Yichen, and said, "Tomorrow you go and open the door, let's go in at night, those who don't have the guts don't come, and the people who participate in the things they get tomorrow will be divided equally." ”
Yichen nodded, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked back.
The sun was still rising, and the temperature of the desert was rising rapidly, but the smell of gunpowder wafted faintly from nowhere, but the people here seemed to smell it often, and no one cared.
As usual, Yichen walked towards the outside of the village again, the hot breath like sand burning the ground, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger.
The surroundings were suddenly much darker, and Yichen looked up, and a huge cloud moved slowly, obscuring the sunlight that overlooked the heavens and the earth.
"Brother Yichen!"
Yichen was startled and turned to look.
He saw a girl dressed in blue facing him, the girl was holding a camel in her right hand that was two heads taller than her, her long, black hair covered her forehead, her blue clothes were covered with white square lines, and a dark blue jade pendant hung between her collar.
