Chapter 200: Mountain Fire Arson & Dust Settled
The night was hazy, the curfew in the county capital had arrived, and a few remote young students who were hurrying home after the market suddenly paused, and one pointed to a mountain in the distance and shouted: "There is a fire!" ”
The old man in the same village slapped the young young man on the shoulder, and said dissatisfiedly: "What shouting, what time - what fire?" ”
When a few people looked up, they were about to jump up, it was really fire!
The mountain is full of fire, faintly there is a tendency to burn the prairie in the dark, in the gray mountain forest, the fire is pressing, several young people born under the crutches of the old man in the same company, even running back to the city gate, while knocking on the door and shouting: "There is a fire!" There's a wildfire! Open the door! There are wildfires! Cangxi Mountain is on fire! ”
The guard poked his head out of the city gate, confused, looked up, the knife in his hand was almost not steady, and immediately kicked a lazy companion awake, several people should report to report, the gate should continue to guard the door, should pacify the people to pacify, busy in a mess.
And on Cangxi Mountain, the fire does not decrease by half, even if the rainy season is not long over, even if the mountain is full of lush trees and no dead branches and dead grass to burn, it is also burning happily at this time.
The place where the fire was most likely to burn was the Bodhisattva Temple.
The winding path was a mess, and the huge pine trees burned and snapped, mingled with the sizzling corpses in the center of the fire, spread far away, and gradually disappeared into the dense forest.
A group of warriors who fought bloodily for two hours, few of them still had the strength left, they should all go to rest, drink saliva, and then go down the mountain to bathe and sleep, but after saying it a few times, few people moved.
The firelight reflected on the people's faces, but it seemed that the scenes they had seen not long ago seemed to reappear in the firelight, hideous human faces, dripping blood, twisted bones, and crazy and demented women and scrawny men.
At this point, there is no doubt why they should be exterminated, because in the depths of the wing room where they have stepped at will several times, batch after batch of people, men, women, children, countless people have been imprisoned.
Among them, few of the bruised and unclothed women were sane, and few of the emaciated and yellowish men remembered who they were, and the children who seemed to be doing their best, a dozen or so infant toddlers, all of them white and fat, and their cradles were hung with wooden signs with the names of their future parents, and the names of the parents who had spent a lot of money to ask for children.
They even found a lot of dry bones, and in the hollow Buddha statues, the most compassionate appearance, containing the most innocent bones, hiding the most filthy crimes.
There are so many that I can't clean them up.
When the night was dark, it was finally decided to end everything with a fire.
The bones of the tortured and tragic deaths, the wicked who did evil, and the beasts in monk's robes will all be turned to ashes in the firelight, and then the bones and blood will be used to nourish this Cangxi Mountain, which has been forced to carry too much filth, and become the nourishment of this lush pine forest.
I don't know how long it took, but the light of the fire gradually faded, thanks to the recent rainy season and the blessing of this pine forest, the ground was muddy, and the fire was difficult to burn, and the influence of manpower did not burn many trees.
"Dust to dust, soil to earth, at least Cangxi Mountain is peaceful, you have hit each other hard, next, be careful." Ye Qing's face was unexpectedly soft against the firelight, standing under the tree not far away, and said to the girl who was playing with pine cones.
"Not necessarily ......" Li Yuchu caught the pine cone, glanced at the crowd not far away, and whispered.
"What?"
"It's nothing, I said, it's time for the other party to escape."
"......"
"If you don't run for your life, it will be miserable, at least you will have to punish the nine clans!" Li Yuchu smiled faintly, but unfortunately, it was too late, and if he wanted to escape, he had to ask the prince of Youxi if he was willing.
Looking at the white figure standing motionless there from beginning to end, Li Yuchu leaned back slightly, and wanted to laugh.
They are dead, things are settled in Nishihara, and then, it's time to ......
It was she who underestimated Murong Jin.
can make a plan in just two days and implement it perfectly, even if there is an uncertain factor for her, there are solutions one after another in the face of the unexpected situations she brings. Lidong said that when she met Yuan Ji, Yuan Ji and the others just quietly solved a group of "mountain guards", and happened to meet Li Dong, who took a shortcut.
So, even without her, this would be the result today.
This time it was not an unprepared battle as Ye Qing said, nor was it a tight arrangement as she thought, but it had been planned for a long time.
The only thing that may be unexpected is estimated to be only her, she will go up the mountain, she will help, she hasn't helped yet.
Li Yuchu recalled Murong Jin, who was discussing Buddhist scriptures with the abbot at that time, and thought about it, it may not have been to the point of being well-read, but premeditated......
"You should leave, Mu Yuanshan will definitely die, as long as you leave Mu Xiaogongzi, I will watch him die for you, how about it?"
Li Yuchu looked at Ye Qing, who had a soft face on his side, strange and natural, as if this was the original Mrs. Ye, not the Ye shopkeeper who was forced to take charge of the Ye family.
"What? Leave? Where am I going? Niangniang, I'm from Xiyuan, how can I leave? Ye Qing turned around and said with a smile, "Niangniang, this is looking at me and driving people away?" ”
“…… Follow them down the mountain. Li Yuchu didn't persuade again, Ye Qing's deceased husband is in Xiyuan, the child who died early is also in Xiyuan, the enemy is also in Xiyuan, and the child who died early has been explained, but the grievances of the deceased husband are not clear after all, not to mention, the enemy is not dead, it is not impossible to wait, it's just ......
"Little Master Mu, when do you plan to release him?"
"What little boy? The mother laughed, I don't know. ”
“…… Mrs. Ye. Li Yuchu frowned.
Ye Qing no longer denied it, but said, "Niangniang shouldn't say that the child is innocent, right?" If they are innocent, why don't I see my mother come to them when my children die tragically!? ”
"Gu Huan, it's not worth it to dirty your hands for this, Ye Gongzi won't want to see you like this......" Before Li Yuchu finished speaking, Ye Qing brushed his sleeves and left.
Looking at Ye Qing's thin back, Li Yuchu turned his head to look at the cremation site where the fire was getting smaller, and slowly closed his eyes in the disgusting smell.
"Homecoming......"
Li Yuchu noticed the sound, twisted his eyebrows and opened his eyes, but it was Murong Jin who was not stained with dust.
His white clothes are chic, and he can't even touch the slightest bit of blood splashed, and he doesn't know what kind of strange fabric it is......
Thinking about it, there was an extra hand in front of her, with distinct joints and slightly dusty, but it looked extremely reassuring.
Li Yuchu thought about it, "handed" the whole person, hooked the neck of the person in front of him, and threw himself into his arms.
