Volume 1: Elm Maple Blue Chapter 67: Elm Maple Blue (15)
"Well, it's getting dark too. This king sees you as loyal. You must know that everything today is due to your deposed monarch, and if he had not rebelled, you would not have become a lowly slave, let alone go to the Death Islands to defend the islands. β
The hour was dark. Snow Blue's toughest day came into the evening. From the south and the abyss to the north and the abyss, from the Buting Mountain in the west to the Elda Salt Lake in the southeast, the land of the Yufeng and Gezhi tribes is full of swords and swords, and war horses are vertical and horizontal.
The new Yufeng King, the eldest son of the 18th Emperor of the Great Hui Dynasty, who had only been in office for one day, broke the peace of Snow Blue City and provoked the fuse of the war in the west with a vigorous and resolute attitude.
It's just that at this time, everyone didn't realize the consequences of arresting all the men of the Yufeng and Gezhi tribes and openly insulting their deposed monarch in front of them.
As the general and think-tank strategist of Shantai Ruide, Lieshan Yungui is submissive and respectful to Shantai Ruide.
The lights by the blood salt pool were bright, and in the sky-high firelight, the roaring lion flag was half-clouded and half-bright.
Determined to destroy all the gods in the hearts of the people of Snow Blue City in one day, including the subconscious reverence of these lowly slaves for their deposed monarch, and establish his supreme imperial authority.
In the firelight, the blood salt pool was crowded, and people kept falling into the water, and the edge of the pool was full of crying.
Removing the sludge from his boots with a horsewhip made of the finest manatee skins from the Kadanlan savannah, he looked up at the unclaimed orphans in the Blood Salt Pools and the terrified slaves. Q: "Does anyone else want to come up?" β
Among these orphans, there is Arrow, who has always been outstanding and has always wanted to return to the flea nest.
Arrow climbed up from the pool of blood salt, carried a body of sewage, and knelt down in front of the Rainbow, and before he could speak, another ragged slave with black front teeth quickly climbed up to the edge of the pool, rushed in front of him, and knelt in front of the Rainbow:
"General, my lord, Your Highness, my child is only seven years old, he is still young, and he can't go to defend the island yet, the general is gracious!"
He squatted down and stared at the black front teeth: "Where is your child?" β
The man with black front teeth timidly pointed to a thin boy lying on the edge of the blood salt pool, the boy was too thin, less than seven feet five inches tall (note (1)), it was estimated that he had been soaked in the blood salt pool for too long, and his small body was constantly trembling.
He nodded at the skinny boy, "Come on." β
The thin boy shivered and tried to climb up the edge of the pool, but because the edge of the pool was soaked in sewage, he could not grasp his small hands steadily, and fell into the pool of blood and salt halfway through.
The many Tianwei troops by the pool laughed.
The man with black front teeth cautiously kneeled to the edge of the blood salt pool, looked at the face of Yutai Ruide, and reached out to pull his son in fear. The skinny boy got up from the pool again, put it in the palm of his father's hand, and was pulled into the pool of blood salt.
The thin boy sensibly knelt next to his father, ticking with sewage on his body.
"All your calamities are given by those two. Go, spit on him, and go home to you! Ryder said to the skinny boy with a smile.
The skinny boy looked at his father's face.
His father was still kneeling on the wet hard ground by the pool, his unkempt and dirty head trembling in the flickering light of the evening fire.
The thin boy staggered a little as he walked, his face was bloodless, and he slowly walked towards Yu Fengguang.
Yu Fenghong opened his mouth wide.
All of them watched as the thin boy's feet approached Yu Fengguang step by step.
Yu Fengguang's eyes looked indifferently at the gloomy front, even though there was nothing in front of him except the spear heads of the Tianwei army. His wife, the living dead Zhi Yilu, was leaning against a white stone pillar next to her, her eyes were blank and her face was expressionless.
The thin boy walked up to Yu Fengguang and made a strange sound in his throat.
Perhaps, he didn't know who Yu Fengguang was, but obviously, his black front tooth father knew.
At this moment, his ragged black front tooth father got up, stood in front of his son, and said with tears in his eyes: "Son, you can't spit on him, he is our sovereign, even if he is deposed, you can't spit on him!" β
The skinny boy spits on the wet hard ground next to him.
Yutai Ruide walked up to Yu Fengguang, looked at him, and pointed to the thick white stone pillar leaning on with the fingers of the whip, and his tone was extremely frivolous and mocking:
"I heard that the Gezhi clan reveres the white stone god the most. This pillar is the pillar you erected for your beloved wife before the wedding, right? Now, I want to see if your gods, the gods of your Yufeng and Gezhi, can save you, and if you can save your beloved wife. β
Yu Fengguang said calmly: "Great gods are everywhere, and the gods are concerned about all living beings. The god of the mountain, the god of stone, the god of the river, the god of the stove, the gods in our hearts protect us. If I can't be blessed by the gods today, it's because I'm not sincere enough. β
Yutai Ruide sneered, turned to the black front tooth man and said:
"You can bring back your son, but you and your son will have to spit not only on this rebel, but also on his wife. Is it not because of their wicked deeds that you have become slaves? β
The man with the black front teeth shook his head: "Your Excellency, General, Your Highness, you can do whatever you want me to do." But I can't spit on him. He's my sovereign, I can't do that! Otherwise, the gods will punish my descendants! β
He looked around and laughed, "Who is your god?" Not those useless white stones, not those dark mountains or trees that can't speak! It's me, His Royal Highness the Great Hui Dynasty. Now, I command you to draw a line with the rebels. β
Two Tianwei soldiers stepped forward, picked up the thin boy, and threw him back into the pool of blood salt.
The skinny boy floated in the sewage of the blood salt pool, blood streaming down his forehead as he resurfaced.
The thin boy cried miserably, "Daddy, Daddy, help me, help me!" β
The man with black front teeth lay on his knees on the edge of the blood salt pool again, tears were in his eyes, and he reached out to hold the small hand of the thin boy who was soaked in salt water: "Son, dad can't do it!" Daddy is here with you, here with you! β
The blood on the thin boy's forehead confused his eyes, and his small hands tightly grasped his father's hand, and his whole body trembled: "Dad, I listened to you, I didn't spit on the monarch, I remember you said that our monarch will come to save us one day, right?!" β
The man with the black front teeth smiled with tears: "Yes, he will come to our rescue one day, we will be free people, no longer untouchables." We're going to hold on until that day. β
"I'll insistβDaddy, I'll insistβ" The thin boy's voice gradually lowered, and slowly became silent again, his body lying limply on the edge of the blood salt pool, his head hanging in the palm of his father's hand.
"Son!" The man with black front teeth screamed miserably, jumped into the pool of blood salt, and hugged his son's cold little body. Blood and sewage soaked the father and son.
The thief king of the flea nest, Ari, immediately understood the rules of the game, and said loudly: "Your Highness, I am willing to serve you, I am willing to go to the Death Islands, as long as you let me go back to find my brother, I am willing to take my brother to guard the island with me, really, I will bring my brother." β
He was very interested and said, "Okay, what do you think I should do now before I let you go back to your brother?" β
Arrow stood up and walked towards Yu Fengguang.
Yu Fenghong also stood up and yelled at Arrow: "Arrow from the flea nest, you can't spit. You can't! β
The salty mud mother-in-law on Chasi Street grabbed Yu Fenghong's arm stiffly.
Arrow from the flea nest looked back and smiled awkwardly: "But I'm going back to my brother?" β
"Flea nest - what's your name?" β
Arrow smiled: "My name is Arrow, or thief, whatever you want to call it." β
He thought that the thief in the flea nest was called Ari, or something like that, and he wouldn't care what the name of a slave and thief was anyway.
"The smartest man in the world is an animal that is both a thief and a slave." He nodded in agreement.
Arrow walked up to Yu Fengguang, smiled at him, snapped, and spit on him with a mouthful of thick phlegm.
Everyone was silent, and the crying pariahs and children in the pool of blood and salt fell silent.
Yu Fengguang remained motionless.
Arrow shrugged his shoulders and explained, "I wasn't a cheap slave in the first place, and I became a cheap slave because of your treason. β
Yu Fenghong broke free from the dirty black and blue hands of the salty mud mother-in-law on Cha 4th Street, and rushed towards Ah Rui to grab him: "You can't vomit!" You can't spit on him!! He is your sovereign! β
The spears of the two Tianwei Army soldiers opened Yu Fenghong, and the salty mud mother-in-law on Chasi Street rushed up again and grabbed Yu Fenghong, and scolded eagerly: "Bad boy, you are sick again, you must have burned your brain." You bad boy! Always don't listen to me! β
Yu Fenghong gasped and stared at Arrow hatefully.
Ryder smiled as if he were watching a play, looked at Arrow, and twisted his head at him.
Arrow looked at Gezhi Yilu and said in embarrassment: "No, she is just a living dead, or a woman!" β
Tantai Ruide said simply: "Yes, there are also female pirates in the Death Islands, can you not kill them?" β
Arrow let out a long breath and turned to spit at Gezhi Yilu.
When Arrow's saliva came out, Yu Fengguang had already moved in front of Gezhi Yilu, and Arrow's thick phlegm spat on Yu Fengguang's face.
The phlegm staggered on Yu Fengguang's face, and then salivated slowly.
Yu Fenghong screamed in despair, broke free from the salt mud mother-in-law on Chasi Street, and stood in front of Ge Zhiyilu: "My mother has never said a word, she has never hurt you, you are not allowed to spit on her, you are not allowed to spit on him again!" β
Arrow was stunned, turned around and wanted to walk out, but with a flick of his horsewhip, he swept him into the pool of blood salt while he wasn't paying attention.
"Hey, you agreed to let me go. You can't be so dishonest! Arrow shouted.
Tantai Ruide turned around and gave him another whip: "You cheap slave, do you have the qualifications to talk to His Highness?" β
There was a scream in the pool of blood salt, and Arrow jumped away, dodging the whip of Yutai Ruide, staring back at him hatefully, muttering, "You don't tell your credit!" β
He shouted to the crowd by the pool, "Who else are you looking for your own child?" Or come and collect the body tomorrow morning. β
Crowds of frantic parents rushed to jump into the pool of blood salt to catch their children.
A pair of teenage siblings were fished up, soaked in salt water for a long time, their skin wrinkled, their legs trembled, and they were brought to Yu Fengguang by their obscene and terrified parents.
"I'm sorry - the monarch!" The lewd couple from the flea nest closed their eyes and spat at Yufeng.
The sister and brother walked up to Yu Fengguang, sniffed, and spit out one after another.
Yu Fenghong stretched out his arm and caught the spittle of the two siblings in front of his father.
The siblings walked up to Gezhi Yilu again, sniffed, and spat again.
Yu Feng rose vertically, like a sharp arrow whizzing in front of Gezhi Yilu, blocking the saliva for his mother, and then landing steadily.
Spit with an unpleasant smell spit on the placket of his chest.
