Chapter 37: Arriving at the county

Vasheene.

Ye Tong took a silver crystal to absorb and refine, restoring the vitality consumed in his body, he regretted that he didn't refine a few blood-forming pills before he came, because of the two and a half bowls of blood, he was very weak now, and there was no blood on his face.

"Yan'er ......"

On the bed against the wall, the middle-aged woman was not awake, but she had already shouted her daughter's name no less than twenty times, and the pain between her eyebrows had not diminished by half a point.

The medicine slave leaned on the side of the bed and fell asleep, occasionally opening his cloudy eyes and glancing at the cold corpse of the little girl, he would ask himself in his heart whether it was right or wrong to save the middle-aged woman.

Life is better than death.

The medicine slave has felt this way physically, but has not been crushed mentally.

"Ang ......"

The loud cry of the dragon lion eagle broke the dull atmosphere of the camp, and as a dragon lion eagle descended from the sky, the doors of the tile house were pushed open, and all of them, including Ye Tong and the medicine slave, walked out of the tile house.

"What's going on?" a strong man jumped down from the dragon lion eagle first, looking at the blood stains on the wet ground and a dozen scarred people, and hurled to meet Monga.

"I don't know what's going on!" Mengjia said with a wry smile: "I have been hit by a small beast tide twice in a row, especially the second time, if it weren't for a little brother who poisoned a large number of black lions with poisonous blood, I'm afraid this camp would no longer exist." ”

"What??Two beast tides?!"

Hearing Mengjia's words, a shocked look appeared on the face of the elite man, he knew that the black lion was a kind of group beast, and the weakest were all second-level fierce beasts, and when they appeared, they were all dozens, hundreds, and maybe even hundreds.

This camp ...... Is it a small beast tide? And a small beast tide with a large black lion?

Although the elite man had not seen the battle here with his own eyes, the imagination made him shudder, and he said with a happy face: "You are really lucky to survive." ”

Menga shook his head and sighed, "Yes! I was very lucky, I almost died." ”

Thinking of the critical moment, his idea of "a dead horse as a live horse doctor", and the right choice made by mistake when he was helpless, Mengjia was really happy.

After negotiations, Ye Tong and Jin Qiusheng and the others who participated in the battle could leave first by dragon and lion eagle, and the group of people who had just arrived, except for a few people, the others were waiting for the dragon and lion eagle behind, but if Ye Tong and the others wanted to leave, they still had to wait until early tomorrow morning.

"Camp Officer Monga. ”

The surviving Baishun Merchant House guards came to Mengjia and reported: "The profits obtained by the second small beast tide have been counted, according to the old rules, half of them are used as pensions for brothers killed in battle, and the remaining half is divided into sixteen parts, and each member who participates in the battle gets one. ”

"According to the market price, it is all paid in blue silver. ”

"Yes!"

Vasheene.

Ye Tong was woken up by the guards of Baishun Commercial Bank, looking at the stack of silver tickets handed over by the other party, he understood the situation and accepted it directly, although he and the medicine slave contributed a lot, they still received sixteen average prices, a total of 325,400 taels of blue and silver silver tickets.

Ye Tong didn't expect that after a fight, he would get such a big gain, and he didn't expect that the people of the Baishun caravan would be so arrogant and fair, originally Ye Tong thought that they would just compensate themselves a little.

"Ye Tong, this is the silver ticket that their mother and daughter should get, a total of 284,000 taels, and I hope that after she wakes up, you will hand it over to her. The guard looked at the middle-aged woman in a coma with complicated eyes, and this number made him very excited, but he didn't dare to hide it.

"Okay!" Ye Tong motioned for the medicine slave to accept it.

As the guard left, Ye Tong stuffed the silver ticket into his arms and said, "Baishun Firm, not bad." ”

"Well, with this reputation, it's no wonder that it can develop. ”

Yao Nu nodded and said: "Baishun Commercial Bank has always had a good reputation, which is also one of the reasons why their commercial firm can continue to grow, and now, Baishun Commercial Bank has become the top three commercial houses in the Skynet Empire, with strong financial resources and strong people." ”

While the two were talking, suddenly, the middle-aged woman in a coma moved her fingers lightly a few times, and then her eyes slowly opened.

Ye Tong said calmly: "Are you awake?"

The middle-aged woman sat up slowly, her face was not bloody, her tears were like beads with broken threads, big drops and big drops, she got out of bed and came to the other side, knelt on the edge of the bed on her knees, and gently held her daughter's cold cheeks with trembling hands.

There is a kind of wound called heart-rending.

There is a kind of pain called life is worse than death.

Scenes from the past kept coming back to her mind, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the feeling of fainting hit again.

Ye Tong's eyes were quick, he helped her shoulder, and said bitterly: "People can't be resurrected after death, and the mourning is smooth." ”

The middle-aged woman raised her arm, wiped the blood on her lips, and waited until the fainting feeling disappeared before slowly turning her head, she remembered this young man, a bowl of hot tea, two salted cakes, at the moment of life and death crisis, he was still with his old slave, when he fought with the beast, he tried his best to protect his daughter.

"You're a good boy. ”

The middle-aged woman's voice was a little hoarse, and after struggling to stand up, she stopped Ye Tong from reaching out again, kneeling on her knees like this, kowtowing three times, the middle-aged woman looked up at Ye Tong and said: "Let's meet in Pingshui, but the grace of protection is unforgettable, the slave family begs you for the last thing, I hope you can promise." ”

Ye Tong asked calmly: "Do you want to say that when I do it, I will be rewarded with a lot of money?"

"Yes!"

The middle-aged woman nodded heavily.

Ye Tong shook his head and said: "I won't take the two corpses with me for a few days, let alone appear outside the gate of the county city with the two corpses, I understand, you don't think you have the face to see your husband again, you want to go with your daughter, and you are a hundred dead, but, let me tell you, you are very wrong in this idea." ”

"Is there something wrong?"

Middle-aged women's tears flow faster.

Ye Tong said: "If it was you who died before, what do you hope for most?"

The middle-aged woman said, "Pray, let my daughter live well." ”

Ye Tong asked: "Didn't your daughter's last smile want to comfort you? Why doesn't she want you to live well? That smile, that comfort, that prayer that you didn't have time to say is her last wish, can't you even fulfill her last wish for her?"

"I ......" the middle-aged woman was speechless.

Ye Tong said again: "Your daughter died, I know you are in pain, but I believe that there are other people who are as painful as you, that person should be your husband, he lost a daughter, if he loses his wife again, then he is not more pitiful, do you want him to follow you too? Or spend the rest of your life in pain?"

The middle-aged woman was silent.

If it weren't for the sudden disaster a few years ago, and the husband led the army to fight against the enemy on the frontier, their mother and daughter would not have appeared here, let alone the tragic death of their daughter.

Ye Tong took out the dark dagger and threw it directly in front of the middle-aged woman, and then said: "People live to be tested in purgatory, a hundred flavors of life, ups and downs, after tasting it all, when you grow old, you will not leave regrets, and you are worthy of living in this life! If you insist on committing suicide, the knife is in front of you, and we will not stop it, but I hope that before you commit suicide, think about the poor man who has lost his daughter and will lose his wife." ”

The middle-aged woman's white teeth, biting her purple lips, blood dripping down, she seemed to be unknown.

Time passed, and she didn't pick up the swarthy dagger, like a puppet, and fell silent.

After a long time.

Ye Tong took the silver ticket handed by the medicine slave, grabbed the middle-aged woman's hand, put it in her hand, and said: "There is a saying in my hometown, called: It is better to die than to live, as long as people are still alive, even if they will lose some, but they will also gain more, the meaning of life lies in the fact that there are still concerns in life, and there is hope, these silver tickets are the pension given by Baishun Commercial Bank, and the harvest after the war, the child is gone, but you are still young, and you can still have children and grandchildren in the future, mother and son filial piety." ”

"Really?" said the middle-aged woman's eyes were full of pain and confusion.

---

In the morning, the sun shines on the earth, dispelling the cold of the night.

With the loud hooves of the dragon lion eagle, the transparent light mask enveloped the people on their backs, and flew towards the direction of the county seat of Zifu County, the middle-aged woman was still alive, and she insisted on taking her daughter's body, even if she paid a thousand taels of blue silver for it.

"Alas!"

Ye Tong sat cross-legged, before he firmly refused the middle-aged woman's intention to give him all the silver tickets.

On the last day of March, the dragon lion eagle landed on the edge of the woods, ten miles away from the south gate of the county, a small market separated from the main city of the county by an open area of four miles.

At the South City Gate.

Hundreds of officers and soldiers wearing armor and exuding a solemn atmosphere of defending the city, in the simple wooden shed, Fu Tianlong sat on a chair, his eyes were like torches, scanning the direction of the bazaar, if you look closely, you can find that his eyes have a little expectant look, he is the brave and good war dragon general of Zifu County, and he is also the first fierce general under the command of the king of Zifu County.

Five days ago, Fu Tianlong led 20,000 elite soldiers to defeat the wolf soldiers on the border of the Falling Flame Empire, and returned triumphantly.

However, early in the morning of the second day, he changed into the armor of the city guard general and appeared at the south gate of the city, and everyone couldn't figure out why the dignified Zifu County's first fierce general, General Zhan Long, would become a gatekeeper?

"Smack......

The tea bowl that Fu Tianlong had just picked up fell to the ground and shattered, and his burly body suddenly stood up, and his eyes burst with incredible light.

In his field of vision, the middle-aged woman covered in blood was his wife, and the middle-aged woman was holding his daughter.

The low roar of "Junlan ......" came out of Fu Tianlong's mouth, and he, holding the hilt of the sword, turned into a sharp arrow, and rushed towards his wife and daughter hundreds of meters away when the hundred elite soldiers defending the city drew their swords together.

"Alas!"

A faint sigh came from the mouth of the medicine slave.

Ye Tong stood dozens of meters behind the middle-aged woman, quietly watching the scene of the reunion of the husband and wife in front of him, his heart was faintly sour, his steps stepped forward again, and in Fu Tianlong's roar, he passed by a few people, and entered the south gate of the county with the flow of people.

Faintly.

The shouts of iron-blooded men and the cries of women still lingered in my ears.

Ye Tong took a deep breath, drove out the distracting thoughts in his heart, looked at this magnificent city from afar, and muttered to himself: "Here, is this the county seat?"
