Ghost Tour Chapter 57, the gentleman in danger does not save him
Qingyangcheng.
The sky was dark, and the last remnants of the sun fell to the ground, and the devastated earth gave people a unique beauty at this time.
The streets that were already in tatters at sunset were full of people, and some sturdy men began to search for the dusty "treasures" under the bricks and tiles. ”
There are a lot of gold diggers, but most of them are still homeless, although the city guard Liu Yi arranged for a lot of temporary wooden houses to be built at the first time, but how can the temporary houses compare with those old houses that have lived for more than ten years.
Liu Yiguo, the city guard, wore the official uniform issued by Long Zhou to organize soldiers on the streets of the past, Liu Yiguo looked at him secretly not far behind him, looking at the broken tiles all over the ground, and then looking at the restaurant where he used to frequent, he suddenly had a feeling of being in a different world, and this rich son who was indispensable in the past couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.
The cries in the city are even more one after another, Rao is a big city with a large population, but more people died in this battle, the son lost his father, the mother lost his son, and even became the only seedling in the family.
Some big families in the city have begun to set up tents and porridge shops to start disaster relief.
"Here, pick it up. The young man who was decorated with a second decorating shouted, picked up the big spoon in the cauldron and filled a bowl to the man in front of him.
Put back the big spoon and stir it in the pot again, serving about a dozen bowls, Xiao Er hurriedly picked up the scarf around his neck and wiped his sweat, looked up at the front and muttered: "There are a few people left, this world is not very bad!"
But in winter, how much cold can a wooden house withstand? How many people will freeze to death due to hunger and cold this winter when they are killed by youkai?
"Ahhh
"Your Excellency. The guard in front of him was visibly panicked, and shouted loudly to get up and pull the woman away.
"Don't. ”
Liu Yi waved his hand with difficulty, and at this time he was actually lifted up by this woman with one hand.
"Child, you give me back my child. The woman's cry was piercing.
"I... I.. I didn't kill your child. A few words were squeezed out of his throat with difficulty by Levio.
"Where are you?.... Where are you? My child was choked by the yokai little by little..."
Liu Yi didn't hear the latter words, because the woman's hand became stronger and stronger as he spoke, and in the end he was directly pinched and deaf, and the quick-eyed guards saw it and rushed forward regardless of his order, broke the woman's hand, and pulled him down.
"Ahem!"
The woman's hand was too strong, and Liu Yi lay on the ground and coughed up a pool of blood, and slowly stood up with the support of his subordinates.
The people around also gathered together because of this incident, and the noise suddenly came and went.
A few rotten cabbages smashed on Liu Yi, and for some reason he remembered what Mr. used to say when he was a child studying in the county town, "If someone falls into the water, you will be in danger if you go to save him, what do you do?"
The students gave different answers.
In the end, Mr. made a final decision on the coffin.
"You remember, the gentleman does not save. ”
....
Outside the city.
In a half-stepped grass hut, a boy is holding the woman's corpse and weeping bitterly.
"Mother, don't leave me! Mother, wake up!"
A young Taoist priest came out of thin air beside him.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"
"Who?"
The boy turned his head with a golden light, and his small eyes flashed with thunder and lightning.
The young Taoist priest frowned, and soon smiled with satisfaction.
"Boom!"
A bolt of lightning struck the grass hut and soon a raging fire broke out.
The boy never thought that he was still cheating meat to make a living during the day, and he experienced the pain of losing his mother at night. What if I suddenly have the power? It's a great pleasure to help my mother take revenge, but my mother has been forever... I'll never wake up.
There are no more ups and downs in life than this.
......
Suizhou Northland.
In the scuffle, in order to resist the demon clan, this place was assigned to the King of Sui by Longzhou, of course, it was not that the dynasty in the north was not strong enough, and Longzhou's intention was to fight the enemy together. Therefore, there are four countries that extend to the Northland, and the major dynasties have invested a lot of manpower and material resources on the border every year, and have been fighting with the Northland for thousands of years.
The ancients had a cloud that "prosperous, the people suffer." Death, the people suffer. "Now that Longzhou is weak, the demons in the north are troubled, and without the pressure of Longzhou, the kings have also begun to draw salaries, so that the people are not happy.
In the improvised camp, several men are warming themselves around the fire, and the men at the head are holding their sleeves with their hands on their cuffs.
More than a dozen horses were tied to the trunks of trees on the side, and as if they were afraid of frostbite from the horses, they also surrounded several fires.
The night was surprisingly quiet, the neighing of the horses, the cracking of the fire-roasted wood, and the whispering of a group of men, as if these were the only people left in the world.
The leader of the man chattered and looked at the place where the horses were tied from time to time, "If you want to talk about beasts for a hundred miles this winter, I'm afraid these horses are left!" the man thought in his heart.
"Boss!"
The gopher on the side whispered a few times to the man.
"Well, what's wrong?" the man looked back at the gopher.
The gopher seemed to have something on his mind, and smiled awkwardly at the man. "It's okay boss, I don't know whose little lady you're thinking about when you're stunned, I'm idle and come over to call you. ”
"You, you're still so indecent. The man's expression was helpless, "Have all the brothers around us on night duty been arranged?"
"It's arranged, old rules. I also said hello to the two officials who came with us, and in the second half of the night, I still came to the night shift according to the old rules. The gopher laughed.
"Well, I'm sorry for you. The leader patted the gopher on the shoulder and said.
"Unfortunately, bitter. It's the boss, you rest early, and you're going to the Black Mountain Village tomorrow evening, boss, you are our hope, and it's up to you if my family can bring a baby next year. ”
"Okay, tell your family to come to me when they go back. I helped with that. "It's rare for a man to make a joke.
"Boss. The gopher had a resentful expression.
"Alright, let's go on duty. I'll be a minute. ”
"Okay!"
After the gopher had walked a few steps, five or six men gathered around him, each with a large waist and a round waist.
"Everything is done?" The gopher voice is gloomy. Yes, in the end, he still did not resist the temptation, he was fed up with this poor mountain and bad water dog planing life, and he wanted to change.
What about the family, as long as he is in this kind of thing, he can do as much as he wants. He kept brainwashing himself in his heart. Decades of poverty finally prompted him to make up his mind to take a risk, one step to heaven and one step to hell.
"It's all done. The last bit of food was brought to them. There was a fierce medicine in it, and one of them was the poisonous faint tiger from a few years ago, and I sent it to them. The man on the side whispered.
The gopher looked up at the lucky people around him who wanted to change their lives, and said in a low voice: "These medicines are not enough, you send this food again like this, and double the medicine." ”
Saying that, the gopher took out a handful of sealed bacon from his arms and handed it to the strong man in front of him, "Don't steal it because of small losses, think about the outside world, the girls in the city can pinch out the water when they are tender...... Even if you flee to the mountains, you will be full of wild beasts, and the meat of the mountains will be full of life... I can't finish it in ten lifetimes.
The gopher said this not only to the man in front of him, but to all the people around him, and sure enough, the expressions of the people around him turned from greed at the beginning to complex.
It's no wonder that they are in this place where they almost want to eat grass and gnaw tree roots, bacon is food for the New Year, and it is rare to get it. It is someone who is lucky enough to see an animal in the mountains almost unprecedentedly, and after catching it, in order to keep it fresh and dry it into jerky, almost everyone has some at home, but not many are reluctant to eat. Almost no one can do such a luxury thing as a gopher with a lot of money on his body, so the gopher has to be told again and again, constantly drawing a big cake for them and outlining a beautiful blueprint.
Seeing the man nodding firmly, the gopher smiled with relief, patted the man's shoulder, and had an expression of entrusting him with a heavy responsibility, as if entrusting his children, "Go!"
"Hmm. The man nodded firmly, and for a moment it seemed that the bacon in his hand weighed a thousand gold, and he left step by step with his head tilted.
Looking at the back of these men, the gopher smiled. Go ahead. There are many wild beasts in the mountains, but it is not certain who will be the food for whom.....
Some people are like this, once they firmly choose one thing, they will become another person because of this thing. At this moment, your former companions seem to have become stones blocking the way, and even if you don't stand in your way, they are an eyesore on the road.
At this time, the gopher didn't know that on a big tree not far away, a half-grown teenager was sitting on the trunk of the tree shaking his legs, the trunk was extremely high from the ground, and the cold wind kept beating the young man's cheek, and he only heard soft words: "Yes! ”........
Not far away, several men came to a simple thatched hut, and the man swallowed his saliva and raised his courage to shout a few times: "Official, official... Did the official master sleep?"
"Hmm.... What are you yelling in the middle of the night?" asked Ying Tianyi with a lazy expression not far from the grass house.
"That official, our head of the house knows that he is worried that you will not have enough food to eat, so he specially asked us to send you some delicious food for supper. As he spoke, the man took out the crumpled bacon from his arms and handed it to the young man with a flattering face.
Ying Tianyi waved his hand and strode towards the grass house, "That's not necessary, you can keep it and eat it." ”
With that, he gently closed the door of the thatched hut, which was not very secure. Only these strong men were left messy in the cold wind.
This... This plot is not right!
