On the banks of the canal, the deserted village is filled with thick fog in the early morning.

The dilapidated wooden door of the thatched house creaked open from the inside, and the little girl carried the straw basket and led the little yellow dog out, wearing old clothes and old pants and straw shoes, and wearing a slightly shabby straw hat.

The fog was heavy in the early morning, and it was a hot and sunny day by noon.

A straw hat is required for sun protection.

The little yellow dog ran happily before and after, the green weeds on the side of the road were heavy and dewy, and the yellow dog hair was wet and knotted.

The thin little girl has to do what she can for the livelihood of the family, there is a kind of pigweed in the riverside water, which was dug home in the past to be washed and chopped and fed to the pigs, humming and chirping is very interesting, but the little sow at home was snatched away by the grain collection team, saying that it was to make up the difference between taxes and grain, and the girl cried sadly, that was the pig she dug the pigweed and fed the pigs with her own hands......

Civilians are suffering, and no one cares about the little girl's miss of the little pig.

Even in the future, future generations and even thousands of years from now do not care, they only yearn for princes, generals, poets, rich people and even famous prostitutes.

After walking for a while, I bent down and pulled up my dew-soaked trouser legs, and my little feet were cool.

The white mist was filled and I couldn't see too far clearly, quietly, I heard my father and mother say that the monsters in the north were besieging the capital, and we discussed taking a boat along the canal to the south in a few days, maybe ...... No one in the south will come to the house to rob pigs, right?

The little yellow dog ran back with a fat frog in his mouth.

"Rhubarb is good~"

The girl was very happy, took the frog and pulled a grass skillfully tied and threw it into the grass basket, the fat frog was cooked and tasted fragrant, more than the thick dough cake, and the little friends in the village liked to eat it the most.

Continue to dig pigweed by the river, the pigs are gone, but the food is gone, the pigweed can fill the stomach, and the taste of starvation is really uncomfortable.

There is no wind, there is no sound to be heard, and a vast white mist rises on the surface of the canal, it is very strange why there is no big ship passing by today, Xu is staying in the county and has not yet sailed.

Suddenly, the little yellow dog barked!

"Wang!Wang~!"

"What's wrong with Rhubarb?"

The girl saw the little yellow dog barking at the canal, and the river was foggy and she couldn't see anything.

The green meadows, the calm river, the little girl in a straw hat and the little yellow dog in the vast fog look small, standing by the river and staring at the ancient canal with wide eyes......

Gradually, I heard the sound of a boat, which sounded different from the usual boat.

I didn't wait too long to find that there was a huge black shadow in the dense fog that was becoming more and more obvious, the girl was stunned, the yellow dog clamped his tail, and the black shadow became clearer and clearer, it was a strange big ship, and the flag on the bow seemed to be the dragon god......

The big boat slowly landed on the shore and lowered the gangplank, and the girl saw many very tall and good-looking big sisters getting off the boat.

Xiao Yezi jumped to the grass on the shore in a light military uniform, saw the thin yellow-haired girl trembling and didn't dare to move, walked up and squatted down to look at the dirty little face, remembering that she was also so sick when she was a child.

"Don't be afraid, look at your skinny skinny and eat an egg. ”

Peel off the egg skin and hand it to the little girl.

Food will always pull into the distance between people, just now was very scared of the little girl grunted and swallowed saliva, the eggs were white and soft, the fragrance reminded her of the New Year, the eggs at home to exchange money to buy salt to subsidize the family can only eat eggs during the New Year, take the eggs and stuff them into the mouth.

"Eat slowly, my sister has a lot~"

When Qiao Jin got off the boat, he saw Xiao Yezi coaxing the child there, and he didn't bother, he stepped on the demon horse of the Southern Wilderness and began to beckon the army to get off the boat, some distance from the capital of Yanguo, he could only take the official road, and the front of the canal was artificially blocked and impassable.

It may have been done by a human, or it may not have been a Terran......

Qiao Jin didn't have any sense of belonging to Yanguo, when the scenes became history, she was more accustomed to calling herself a citizen of the new era or a soldier of the new era, and all kinds of strange words were put forward by the mysterious demon emperor.

One after another, large ships docked at the ancient canal road next to the deserted village, snake demon soldiers disembarked with packages and weapons equipped with armor on their backs, assembled and hurried, and hired merchant ships transported horse-drawn carriages full of supplies, breaking the silence under the fog with noise, and the villagers were stunned to watch a group of handsome and slender 'young men' rushing towards the north.

......

The capital of the Yan Kingdom.

The majestic government was busy, and there were flag-planting heralds running in and out one after another, and the fast horses outside the yamen galloped everywhere or returned to the government office.

At this time, this yamen has become the headquarters of the capital, the officials and officials are writing and painting in front of the model of the capital with bloodshot eyes, and the lampstand accumulates a thick layer of wax oil, indicating that this place is working day and night.

There was an official about sixty years old sitting on the innermost seat of the yamen, frowning and discussing with several military generals, and the atmosphere was dull.

Another official in brocade clothes came in outside the gate, and everyone bent down to salute, and the old man waved his hand and went straight to the innermost, walking hurriedly with a look on his face.

"Folding the book. ”

The officials who came in said hello and then looked at a few generals.

The main surname Shangshu nodded, several generals hugged their fists and said goodbye and left the yamen quickly, and a waiter gave the official a cup of hot tea and retreated far away, and the adults could not get too close to the people.

"Old man Dong, this is the first time you have stepped into my yamen, right?"

The official surnamed Dong saw that no one was nearby and sat down and whispered.

"You forgot three years ago, don't talk about this, did you really decide to stay or not? Gao Taishi, the left and right ministers, those people left and right left last night, and also, have you ever seen that person when you entered the palace? I'm afraid you can't even enter the palace gate, right?"

"The old man went there yesterday and didn't see it. ”

Zhe Shangshu's face was gloomy like water, and he had already guessed something bad.

"Of course you can't get in and you can't see it, the palace is empty, and the one who has already gone south a few days ago and ordered to block the palace gate, otherwise do you think Gao Taishi and they dare to run in advance?"

Boom!

The fist slammed on the sandalwood table, and the green muscles were revealed, and his face was hideous.

The old man took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions, sighed, and suddenly stopped hating those who fled at night, yes, who is not afraid of dead corpses, even the immortals of the Pure Yang Palace and the Western Sect can't do anything, and there is no news about the fall of several big cities in a row, and there is no more news about it, and some monks use precious photo stones to record the dead and silent city, and there are no living people......

Survival is instinct, and who doesn't want to live well.

"If you don't leave, you will be the secretary of the military department at the age of sixty, and this life is enough, and you should live and die with the soldiers and people in the city. ”

"You...... Forget it, you were so stubborn back then, and I will stay with you. ”

"Brother Dong doesn't have to be like this. ”

"Actually, I don't want to do that thing of abandoning the whole city and running for my life, besides, I am reluctant to leave after living for most of my life, it doesn't matter if you and I live or die, the family in the house still has to make arrangements for their future lives, and someone will take them out of the city and go south tonight. ”

"Thank you. ”

"Alas, I hope the tide of corpses won't go south......"

The two immersion officials sighed silently, perhaps now the two of them are the highest officials in the capital, and it is because of their persistence that the thousand-year-old city has held on to this day.

While he was sighing, a clerk untied the letter from the pigeon's feet, and after checking it, he panted and ran to Zhe Shangshu.

"My lord, I am in a hurry! The demon army has news!"

The surname Shangshu hurriedly got up and took the small letter, opened it and looked at the back of the tangled.

"The demon army is here, although I don't like to be in the company of beast spirits, but now I am the strongest reinforcement. ”
