Chapter 203: Trying to get into the city
In fact, this journey can be said to be hard work for the servants, but for those slaves, it is just a walk through the ghost gate! Over the years, how many bones have been devoured by this desert, I am afraid that even the desert itself has long been unable to count.
When Yang Xiaotian looked back at the slaves squatting under the corner of the wall, they were all gray-faced, squatting against the wall in tattered clothes, their hands were still tied to the horizontal wood, and some people's hands were festering, and the rope was deeply sunk into the flesh, which made people feel heartache when they looked at it.
At this time, Yang Xiaotian saw a person the same size as himself, staring at Yang Xiaotian with blank eyes, his eyes seemed to be full of something, perhaps thinking that he was as big as himself, but he could enjoy life freely, while he could only become a slave of others and be slaughtered by others.
But one of the slave's actions completely subverted Yang Xiaotian's cognition, only to see the man's neck Adam's apple moving up and down, he realized that the man was looking at the meat in his hand and swallowed his saliva, it turned out that he didn't have the strength to complain about God's injustice at all, but looked at the meat on the plate with envy.
So, Yang Xiaotian moved the food to another table against the corner of a half-person-high wall, crossed the half-person-high wall one by one, and handed it to the young man's mouth.
Seeing this, the young man stared greedily at the piece of meat, stretching his neck to eat the dish in Yang Xiaotian's hand.
It didn't matter if he moved, the other slaves in front of him and behind him felt the shaking of the crosswood, and they all looked up and saw that there was something to eat, and they all hugged me and squeezed me, wanting a piece of the pie, and suddenly there was a lot of movement.
"Shhhh......h
"If you do this, you will not be able to eat a single piece when you are seen by those men. Yang Xiaotian glanced at the servants not far away and shouted in a low voice.
At this time, the servants were also a little drunk, and when they saw some noise behind them, they turned around and saw a young man eating and drinking in a corner by himself, and the slaves in the corner next to him bowed their heads one by one, looking like they were about to die, so they relaxed and continued to drink.
Yang Xiaotian was frightened into a cold sweat, if they found out, his plan would probably be ruined, seeing that the messenger continued to drink, he whispered again: "As long as you are obedient, I promise to let each of you eat meat." ”
The slaves nodded one after another, this is a bodhisattva!
So Yang Xiaotian handed the meat on the plate to the slaves on the other side of the wall one by one, after eating a plate, and asked the guy for several plates, the guy had already seen it, but he didn't talk much, after all, he was also from a poor background, looking at those slaves who were unclothed and struggling on the verge of death, his heart was not a taste, and now there were kind-hearted people who were willing to help them and give them a bite to eat, he just couldn't see it, and even added a few dishes in the back, put a little more meat, maybe this is the best good deed he can do.
After Yang Xiaotian finished feeding the meat, the servants were almost drunk, and they fell asleep on the table one after another. Yang Xiaotian simply asked the man to bring a basket of steamed buns and the like, and then distributed it to those slaves, and after they were full, he finished the account and left, leaving only a bunch of grateful slaves there to watch him leave.
"Bodhisattva's heart!" a slave looked at Yang Xiaotian's small figure, as if he felt extremely huge, and said sincerely.
When the four servants woke up, it was already dark, and after they had paid the soul coins, they reprimanded the slaves and walked forward, and after walking a hundred meters, they came to a small alley, which led directly to the only inn in the town, the desert oasis.
"You settle them down, and I'll go in and open the house. One of the errand bosses was so sleepy that he yawned and stepped straight into the inn.
When the other three officers saw this, they thought to themselves, "No one dares to touch the slaves of the court in this place, and that is a capital crime!" So they randomly found a corner in the courtyard and settled them, and then they also stepped into the inn.
Although this desert oasis is just an ordinary hotel in the town, it is a place where countless people in the desert think about day and night, because after rushing all the way, the body and mind have reached the limit of exhaustion, when touching the desert oasis wooden bed, all the hard work will be forgotten, and begin to have a feeling of fluttering immortals, so as to deeply enter the wonderful dreamland.
By the second half of the night, everyone had already fallen asleep
Township, suddenly a figure appeared in the small alley of the hotel, this person is not tall, wearing a night suit, and covered his face with a black cloth, leaving only a pair of eyes *** outside, but the eyes are blazing, like a black cat in the middle of the night.
I saw him tiptoe into the alley, and then threw a few pills into the courtyard inside, and after a while, the pills volatilized into gas and mixed into the air.
Seeing that the pill had evaporated, the man in black came to the courtyard, picked up a teenage boy, and then the two disappeared into the courtyard.
Coming to a desert, the man in black took out an antidote to wake up the young slave.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, saw a masked man staring at him, knelt on the ground in fright, and begged for mercy: "Spare your life!"
Seeing this, the man in black took off the black cloth and looked at the young slave with a smile.
"I don't want to look at you, I won't live if I see you!" the young man said, closing his eyes.
"Look at it! I promise you won't die. The man in black laughed and said. But in my heart, I thought it was interesting, it seemed that this young slave was quite clever, so it was better.
When the young man heard the voice, he felt a little familiar, and he listened to the man's promise to himself, so he slowly opened his eyes, which startled him a lot, and said, "You are the Bodhisattva who fed us food today!"
That's right, this man in black is Yang Xiaotian, and he pretended to leave just to be safe, because he heard that they were going to rest here for the night, and they would definitely live in the desert oasis.
Therefore, he went out of the town first, towards the desert, but in fact he hid in the low-lying places near the town, waiting for the night.
Finally, late at night, he changed into his night clothes and headed towards the desert oasis, and then there was the next thing.
"Let's go!" Yang Xiaotian said.
The young man knelt down on the sand with a puff and said, "Bodhisattva, you risked your life to save me, great kindness, I will never forget it in my life, dare to ask the Bodhisattva's name, and in the coming day, I will stand a statue for the Bodhisattva, and bow down day and night." ”
Yang Xiaotian stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "That's not necessary, it's just a gesture, just live by yourself." ”
"The villain dares to ask why the Bodhisattva wants to save me!" the young man raised his head and looked at Yang Xiaotian and asked.
Yang Xiaotian smiled slightly and said, "You and I have fate, when I saw your longing eyes in the wine shop, I made up my mind to save you from fire and water." ”
Yang Xiaotian casually made up an excuse and said, he would not be stupid enough to tell him the true purpose, and besides, it would be useless for him to know.
The boy nodded heavily, thanked him again, and then turned and walked towards the depths of the desert.
"Wait......" Yang Xiaotian stretched out his hand and shouted, seeing that the young man stopped, turned to look at him suspiciously, and continued: "Are you going to leave like this? ”
The young man's original heart was put down, indeed as the Bodhisattva said, if you want to cross this desert with such a dress, it is not easy to talk about it, besides, even if you get out by luck, looking at his appearance, you will definitely be reported and recaptured, but if you don't leave like this, how can you leave! He looked at Yang Xiaotian with a puzzled expression again.
"Take off that garment and put on mine. After Yang Xiaotian finished speaking, he took out the clothes that had been prepared from the baggage and handed them to the young man.
The young man's eyes were moist, and he gratefully took the new clothes and began to change them.
"Change your clothes, get on my horse again, head east, and never come back. Yang Xiaotian tied the burden to the horse's back again and continued: "There are still hundreds of soul coins in the baggage, which is enough for you to live for a few years, remember to live well." ”
The young man had already changed his clothes at this time, and knelt on the ground again with a pop, kowtowing his head constantly, tears had already flowed uncontrollably, and his voice was choked and speechless.
It's been more than ten years since he came to this world, and no one has ever been so good to him, not only to save him from fire and water, but also to think so thoughtfully for him, just because of his own eyes today, how can this not make the young man grateful,
"You gave me the horse, how do you go?" the boy seemed to remember something.
Yang Xiaotian said with a smile: "I'll buy another one in the town tomorrow." ”
"Okay
Let's go!" Seeing that the young man still wanted to kowtow to himself, Yang Xiaotian pulled him up and said.
Only then did the young man get on the horse and gallop towards the east by the moonlight, looking back at Yang Xiaotian from time to time while running, maybe the speed of the horses was too fast, or maybe the night was not very bright, and after a while, he lost Yang Xiaotian's figure.
It turned out that at this time, Yang Xiaotian was bending down, quickly changing the clothes that the young man had just taken off, and then smearing the disguise paint that had been prepared on his face.
After everything was ready, Yang Xiaotian flew towards the desert oasis.
Early the next morning, the four servants walked out of the hotel very lazily.
"Oh, it's so comfortable!" exclaimed one of the officers.
"yes! If only I could sleep one more night. The other officer said as he stretched his back, stepping forward with a very reluctant step.
"Alright, let's go and count the number of people, escort to the Dark City, and it's not too late for us to come back for a few days after we finish our errands. An officer, who looked like an elder, interrupted them.
Seeing this, the other three had to obediently count the number of people.
"That's the right number!" said one of them.
"Let's go!" the boss-like officer ordered.
