"Master Lu, everything you arranged has been done. ”

"Well, here's a bounty for you. ”

"Ahh......h

"Go in peace. ”

Among the ruined temples on the outskirts of the city, Lu Zheng walked out, looked left and right, and then disappeared into the night, there are almost no people in this place, even if someone is dead, it is difficult to be found, it is simply an excellent place to destroy the corpse.

The night sky is dotted with stars, and there is no moon tonight, so it is a little dark, and Li Bai and Qi Qi are still in a hurry.

"The moon is dark and the wind is high, it's a good time to kill. ”

Qi Qi walked staggeringly, because he had the memory of Zhu Da, so he still had the culture of lifting people, and now he began to drag the text.

"What are you talking about!

Li Bai wanted to pat him on the head, but his hand was raised in the air and put it down, after all, the "Zhu Da" standing in front of him was a man taller than himself, although his soul was a little child, he really couldn't do it.

"Hehe, according to the memory in my head, we are almost to Zhu Village. ”

Poor Qi patted his thigh.

"We've been walking non-stop for three hours, we're so tired!"

"Come on, let's go, I've always thought this place was a little weird. ”

"Wow wow. ”

Suddenly a flock of crows chirped, and then flapped their wings and flew up.

"It's bad luck, let's go. ”

Li Bai wrote another poem of galloping war, and took Qiqi to walk like a fly, and only after a while did he see a village, but there was no light in the whole village, and it seemed extraordinarily quiet.

"This is a paradise, the sun rises, the sun sets, I really want to live here. ”

Li Bai looked at this village, no wonder the more than a dozen brothers of the Zhu family are very simple, this quiet place seems to be isolated from the world, can the children who go out from this kind of place not be simple?

"Brothers......"

Qi Qi on the side was suddenly depressed, after all, he inherited Zhu Da's memory, and in his subconscious, the Zhu family brothers were his brothers, and this was his home.

Li Bai opened his mouth when he saw this, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only silently pat Qi Qi's shoulder.

"Let's go, it's getting late, hurry up and find a family to rest. ”

"Well, I'll take you to my house. ”

The two walked towards the village, the whole village was dark, all the farmhouses were like black cats, crawling on the ground, looking at Li Bai and Qi Qi coldly, a flag at the head of the village was fluttering in the evening breeze, and the word "Zhu" was written on it.

"Don't you think it's scary to be quiet in this place?"

Li Bai subconsciously tightened his coat and shrunk his neck.

"Hey, Zhujia Village is like this, now that everyone is sleeping at this point, don't be suspicious, my house is in front. ”

Qi Qi walked in front of Li Bai, and the two walked in the alley, flanked by the courtyards of each family, but the courtyard doors were tightly closed.

Da-da-da-da!

The whole village was only the sound of feet stepping on bluestone slabs.

"Boom!"

"Hell!"

Li Bai jumped high.

"Isn't it just a door blown open by the wind? ”

Qi Qi pointed to the door of a courtyard next to him, and looked at Li Bai helplessly, he didn't expect Li Bai to be so bold.

"Wasn't I a little nervous? ”

Seeing this, Li Bai breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and walked forward, hiding the embarrassment just now.

"Whew. ”

The evening breeze was blowing constantly, Li Bai's nerves were a little nervous, seeing these scenes, he couldn't help but think of the ghost movies he saw in his previous life, he was originally afraid of walking at night, and now there is nothing in this world, what if there is really a ghost?

"I didn't expect you to be so big that you were afraid to walk at night, hahaha!"

Qi Qi grabbed Li Bai's pigtails and kept laughing at Li Bai all the way.

The two walked all the way, and the whole village was really quiet, there was no sound at all, was there really anyone living here?

"Anyway, there isn't even a dog in such a big village, why haven't you heard a dog bark after walking for so long?"

Li Bai recalled that in his previous life, a dog would generally be raised in the countryside to take care of the home, if there was a dog, the two of them should have barked for so long, but no.

I still remember one year when there was a drought, the villagers ate all the trees inside and outside the village, and all the bark and roots were completely gone, and there was not a single grass left on the ground, and even some mold and moss in the corners of the walls were eaten up. ”

Qi Qi recalled the hardships and hardships in the past, and was a little stunned, but Li Bai was shocked when he heard this, and it was hard to imagine what kind of difficult life Zhu Da and they had when they were children, and Li Bai believed that there was definitely more than one place in the entire Tang Dynasty where life was difficult.

"Didn't the imperial court provide disaster relief?"

Li Bai suddenly thought that when he used to watch TV series, if there was a disaster in the world, the imperial court would open the treasury for disaster relief.

"Disaster relief is relief, but almost all the money and food went to the hands of corrupt officials, and those corrupt officials paid homage to our prime minister Lu Cheng, who was sensitive to the people's feelings. ”

Qi Qi's tone was a little cold, if it weren't for the corruption of these corrupt officials and their inaction, where would the villagers have had such a hard time? How could so many of them join the army? Just to find a way to live, they just had enough to eat.

"This old man Lu Hao is really nonsense!"

Li Bai thought of Lu Hao's ugly face again, it was simply for the sake of the dynasty, I am afraid that there is no one in the world who does not want to kill him quickly.

"Okay, I'm here, that's it. ”

The two of them stood at the gate of a courtyard, there was thatch on the gate to protect from the wind and rain, the doors on both sides were still pasted with faded door gods, and the walls were also a little tattered, I don't know how many years it had been washed away by the rain.

"Boom!"

Poor Qi knocked on the door, and then ...... The door fell straight down.

"Peng!"

Qi Qi was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect this door to be so vulnerable.

"This ...... It may be that the door has not been repaired for too long. ”

The two of them walked into the courtyard, which was empty, and there was nothing left except for farm tools such as hoes.

"Who?"

An old voice came from the room, and soon the door opened.

"Mother! It's me!

Qi Qi ran to the door excitedly, and in his memory, Zhu Da had not returned home for three years, that is, he had not seen his mother for three years.

"Zhu Da, is my child back?"

The voice in the room trembled visibly, and the pace quickened to open the door.

"Crunch. ”

The door was opened, and a rickety figure appeared in front of Li Bai and the others, only to see the old woman hunched over, not as high as Li Bai's shoulders, a pair of eyes were a little cloudy, her face was full of traces carved by wind and frost, wrinkles were layered, her white hair was a little thin, her hands were hanging in the air, she trembled with excitement, and she didn't know where to put it for a while.

The most distressing thing is her shabby clothes, it is already late autumn, but she is only wearing a single dress, Li Bai learned from Zhu Dakou before that his father had died a long time ago and was starving to death, it is hard to imagine that such an old man with inconvenient legs and feet can live alone for three years.

"Mother!"

Qi Qi rushed up and hugged Zhu, his eyes were red, and the ghost knew how his mother had suffered in the past few years.

"Kid, it's good to come back!

Li Bai looked at the two people who reunited in front of him, a little distressed, and at the same time made up his mind that he must let his parents live the best life, and when he came to worship those brothers this time, he would take his parents to Chen's mansion to enjoy happiness, and when he had the ability, he must build a big villa according to his own design, so that his parents can enjoy their old age in peace.

"Kid, what is this?"

"Oh, this is my friend, Li Bai. ”

Qi Qi introduced.

"Hello aunt!"

Li Bai greeted politely.

"Hey, okay, let's all go into the room, it's cold outside!"

Zhu Shi let half of his body go, let Li Bai and the others enter the room, and slowly closed the door, Zhu Shi walked step by step in the dark.

"Mother, be careful. ”

Qi Qi hurriedly walked over to support Zhu, and walked to the edge of the bed step by step and sat down.

Li Bai looked at the simple environment in the room, and couldn't help smacking his tongue, he originally thought that his family was poor enough, but he didn't expect that the Zhu family was even poorer, except for a broken pot, there was nothing left, oh, there was also a bed made of firewood, which was covered with thatch.

"Mother, the child is not filial!"

Qi Qi's eyes were moist, he had seen the tatters at home from Zhu Da's memories and thought it was fake, but he didn't expect his mother to really have such a hard time, it was hard to imagine that an old man of sixty or seventy years old only relied on thatch to keep warm in the cold winter, how did he survive these cold winters.

"No, the child went out to join the army, and there is a future, my mother is happy!"

Zhu wiped his tears, and his cloudy eyes became even more cloudy.

"It's not early, rest quickly, I'll make your bed." ”

Zhu stood up and walked to a corner in the dark, Zhu seemed to be familiar with walking in the dark, and it was normal, after all, he couldn't afford candles, and he could indeed do this in the long run.

"Mother, are your legs and feet okay?"

Qi Qi looked at Zhu's walking normally, and remembered that Zhu Da's memory of Zhu's legs and feet had been affected by rheumatism for a long time, and he was limping when he walked.

"Oh, cured, last year a famous doctor passed by our village, I gave him a bowl of water to drink, and he kindly reciprocated me and helped me cure my leg disease. ”

Zhu replied, bending down to pick up a bundle of thatch.

"Auntie, I'll come!"

Li Bai walked over and took the thatch from Zhu's hand, and Qi Qi also ran over to help, and the two quickly laid the floor.

"Rest early, it's getting late. ”

Zhu walked to the side of the bed and lay down. Li Bai and the others also lay on the ground, Li Bai is also used to it, anyway, they sleep on a thatched bed at home, and they are not used to it at all.

Soon, the snoring sounded, and Zhu seemed to be asleep.

"Poor Qi!"

Li Bai lowered his voice and pushed Qi Qi, who was sleeping on the side, again.

"Huh, what are you doing?"

Qiqi rolled over impatiently.

"Don't you think it smells of blood?"
