Volume 1 Catechumens Chapter 14 Responsibility
Wu Xie did not indulge in grief and self-blame for a long time.
The victims of the disaster in Nanping County are living like a year, looking forward to the delivery of relief food through the autumn water. For every minute of delay, one or two people may fall.
They have already been hindered and wasted at least two days and have no time to drag on any longer!
But if you want to move forward, you have to break through the obstacles in front of you - the unknown armies that stand in front of you.
When Wu Xie stood up, the grief on his face did not decrease, but there was more killing intent.
"Shen Daxia, can you lend me the Water Cutting Sword?" He looked at the army that had already set up the battle formation with a chilling gaze, "Killing people is faster with a sword than with a fist. ”
He tried to calm his voice, but there was an irrepressible ferocity in it; He wanted to look at his enemies like the protagonists of some of the novels he had read, as if he were looking at a dead man, but the anger in his chest involuntarily flowed from his eyes and mouth.
He remembered that Lao Bai had said more than once before his death that this was the last dart in his life, and it was also the most meaningful dart in his life. He would not allow the old man's last wish to be tarnished by a scheming bastard!
Those people want to stop them, they want to let the victims die. If they succeed, Nanping County is only afraid that it will starve everywhere and even cannibalize Yizi...... Wu Xie would never allow that kind of thing to happen.
Since you don't give others a way to live, then don't blame me for not giving you a way to live!
"Master! You have the momentum you had now! Jasmine shouted excitedly, "That's the momentum!" Kill all those who stand in your way! Not a single one to stay! ”
"I've known you for so long, and this is the first time I've endorsed your unreliable suggestion—hopefully the last." Wu Xie smiled bitterly in his heart, took the water cutting sword handed by Shen Yi, and took a deep breath.
In the next moment, he injected the pure yang true fire into the sword, and the sword that was as clear as water turned red in an instant, and there was a gorgeous golden-red sword that extended out with the rolling heat wave, turning the three-foot green blade into a five-foot long blade.
"Watch out for arrows." Shen Yi was not a mother-in-law's person, but he just took the lead in rushing to the enemy formation after just one word of advice, Wu Xie laughed viciously and followed.
One of these two people is a congenital master, and the other has just killed a congenital master, and the two join forces, even if they are thousands of troops, they can kill seven in and seven out, and by the way, they will kill a general and take a military flag or something. At this moment, the opponent is only more than 300 people, and it is not like chopping melons and vegetables!
Seeing the two of them approaching violently, the person who was in the lead, who might be an officer, was not frightened, but raised his head and shouted towards the cliff: "Do it!" ”
He only shouted, and his throat was cut off by Shen Yi's sword qi. And his shouts were like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response.
This was a matter of course, because a hundred archers who were lying in ambush on the cliff had already turned into a hundred cold and shriveled corpses in the night.
They were indeed brave enough to climb the steep cliffs without fear, and to ambush them on the cold cliffs despite the cold. But their bravery was meaningless, because they couldn't see Du Ruo as a ghost at all.
A hundred archers were silently drained of blood and anger before they knew it, and they didn't even let out the slightest scream.
Determined that they could not be supported by archers, and that the chief and deputy leaders were dead, the soldiers did not break up and fled, but attacked.
Heavily armored pikemen, lightly armed cavalry, rushed desperately. Although most of them died under the hands of Shen Yi and Wu Jie, some of them still rushed into the convoy and fought with everyone in the convoy.
The sound of weapons colliding and the roar of people in battle, mixed with the neighing of war horses and the screams of dying, are like a terrifying Shura field.
Gradually, all kinds of noises disappeared one after another, and the battlefield slowly returned to quiet, leaving only the restless snorts of the war horses and the heavy breathing of the people after their hard work, which slowly dissipated in the cold wind.
"This group of rammers rushing to reincarnate! I've got a lot of food! Guan Xiong looked at the blood-stained grain carts angrily, and anger almost erupted from his nose.
When he said this, he had to cover his stomach with one hand to prevent his intestines from coming out of the wound.
"Just bask in the sun...... If there is no sun, it should be okay to blow, and the weather is quite dry these days. Xu Hai, who had a terrible wound on his face, tied his right arm with a white cloth, and the serious injury that could not be seen in the bone could not move him in the slightest, "Thank you for your hard work!" But we still have to get on our way as soon as possible, and we're going to leave after a little rest. ”
"Understood!"
"Don't worry!"
"It's a trivial matter!"
The responses came and went, but they seemed a little sparse.
At the time of departure, the convoy of nearly 200 people had already lost more than 50 people, and at least 30 people were seriously injured and could not travel long distances, plus those who needed to stay behind to take care of the wounded, the entire convoy was afraid that the manpower of the entire convoy would be reduced by half!
"What the hell! It's just a disaster relief, how could such a thing happen! Guan Xiong muttered dissatisfiedly, sitting on the ground leaning on the carriage and panting, "Old Xu, I'm afraid I won't be able to go on the road with you." What a shame! ”
"Don't worry, with Shen Daxia and Wu Shaoxia together, there won't be any big deals." The wound on Xu Hai's face made his smile look a little hideous, "This time it's really thanks to Wu Shaoxia!" If it weren't for him......"
Everyone nodded secretly when they heard this, this time the convoy was able to save the day, and Wu Xie was the most well-deserved hero!
Not to mention the key event of helping Shen Yi break through to the innate realm with his mysterious kung fu, or the courage he used to kill Wei Shu, just the medicine he took out just now was crucial.
If it weren't for those high-quality medicines, I am afraid that more than half of the wounded in the convoy would be incapacitated, and at least twenty people would have died of serious injuries. And his medicines, many people who know the goods are secretly shocked.
The top-grade gold sore medicine is expensive, and only Shen Yi has prepared a little in the entire fleet, and even Guan Xiong and Xu Hai, the two imperial court officials, are reluctant to buy it. As for the ginseng blood pill...... The kind of treasure that a pill is worth a piece of gold, even the most well-informed people have never seen the real thing, but only heard about it.
The effects of these two drugs were indeed worth their price, and the convoy had only rested for about an hour, and the injuries were not serious, and they were almost recovered, and they could continue to set off.
During this time, Wu Xie and other uninjured people were busy digging pits on the ground, sorting out the relics of the dead in the convoy, and then cremating the bodies and burying bags of ashes.
As for the soldiers of unknown origin, their bodies were also cremated to prevent the plague, but the cremated remains were buried casually - there is no such thing as "humanitarian care" in this world.
Dozens of ashes were buried under a straight cliff, and the cliff was fiercely pressed by Shen Yi with his innate true qi, and even the stainless steel broadsword could only leave extremely shallow traces when cut down, which must be able to withstand years of sun and rain. And on this solid stone wall, there is a foundation carved by Shen Yi with his sword and divine skills.
The text is not long, simple and concise, but it has already made the things here clear. After the text, there are dozens of names and their respective origins and identities, and the first one is Lao Bai - it was not until this time that Wu Xie realized that Lao Bai was not actually surnamed Bai, but a single name with the word "Bai".
After the names of the martyrs in the convoy, there is another line, remembering that it is "forty-two martyrs of the righteous people".
"If I don't die this time, I must find out the names of these heroes one by one and fill them in below." After doing all this, Shen Yi sighed, "They died for disaster relief, and their names should be engraved on this green mountain, with the green mountain!" ”
Wu Xie thought about it, walked to the cliff on the other side, which had not been reinforced by true qi, and carved the eight big characters with his fingers: "The green mountains are fortunate, and the mighty spirit lasts forever".
can let Lao Bai and them be buried here, if there is a spirit in this majestic green mountain, they should be proud of it!
After carving these words, he came to the tomb of Lao Bai and others again and prayed in a low voice.
"Lao Bai, and everyone, don't worry! We will definitely ship the grain to Nanping County! Whoever it is, don't try to stop us! ”
After saying this, he resolutely turned around and walked towards the convoy that was about to set off, which was making the most final preparations.
The chariots, the horses, and the pedestrians, bows and arrows, are all at the waist.
A long convoy of dozens of wagons noisily marched through the narrow valley and slowly on the rugged mountain road.
They didn't want to investigate the origins of the bandits, but now was not the time.
There is a problem with the origin of these guys, that's for sure, even idiots can see it - who has ever heard of a bandit in the world led by an innate martial arts powerhouse? Who has ever heard of a bandit in the world who knows a dead end and still resolutely charges and does not retreat?
Even if it is a strong army of other countries, there are few armies that can do this!
But now is not the time to investigate them.
No matter who is behind these bandits, no matter what the intrigues are, it is only a secondary matter. Their most important task now is to go to disaster relief, because the disaster situation in Nanping County cannot be delayed at all, and if it is delayed for a moment, there will be a few more starvations!
Wu Xie and Shen Yi, the two great masters, as the pioneers of the team, walked at the front of the entire team.
"Do you know the difference between a boy and a man?" Shen Yi asked suddenly.
Wu Xie thought for a while and said, "Do you mean to get married or not?" ”
Shen Yi shook his head.
"Age?"
Shen Yi shook his head again.
"So what is it?"
"Responsibility." Shen Yi looked into the distance and looked into the distance, "When a boy decides to take responsibility, he is no longer a boy, but a man." ”
"When I was sixteen years old, Wei Shu killed his teacher and rebelled. I happened to be shopping with a few junior brothers at the time, and when I rushed back after hearing the news, several teachers were already left with only the most powerful master uncle. He looked at me and said, 'The Nanhua Sword Sect will be handed over to you,' and then closed his eyes - in fact, he was the most poisoned, and the reason why he was able to hold out for so long was just to say this to me. ”
"From that day on, I will no longer be the prodigal sword Shen Erlang, who is known for his youth and dashing in Changning City, but Shen Yi, the head of the Nanhua Sword Sect."
"Since that day, I've learned a lot of things that I didn't want to learn, didn't need to learn, or didn't bother to learn; I practiced with the same hard work I had never done before; I only allow myself to sleep for two hours a day......"
"It's been ten years in a blink of an eye, and before I know it, I have become a chivalrous man in the Great Chu Kingdom, and I have also become a congenital master......"
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Wu Xie with a smile, with the calmness of the elder and the generosity of the predecessor in his eyes.
"From the day you joined the team, I knew you were hidden. But I didn't want you to reveal your identity, because that was your own choice, and I had no right to interfere. ”
"However, I'm glad to see that you've finally grown up and stepped up like I was back then, and taken on the responsibilities that those of us should have."
"Brother Wu, welcome to step into the rivers and lakes and become a real man!"
