Chapter 6: The Slaughter of the City (1)
"Today. Other.. I.."
Feichen was lying on the ground weakly at the moment, muttering this name in his mouth, but he couldn't remember who the owner of this name was, and he didn't know what had happened before.
He couldn't help but be a little stunned, hesitated for a while, and then stretched out his hand, thinking about picking up the book and reading it, but he didn't want to hear a trivial footstep in the grass nearby, so frightened that Feichen hurriedly put the book in his hand into his arms, without saying a word, he drew his sword and prepared to attack, but he didn't want to make this action before it was complete, and a call came from the grass.
"Is it Brother Feichen? I'm the head of a panda?"
Hearing this voice and this name, Feichen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, hurriedly put down the sword in his hand, and then looked at the grass with a puzzled expression and said:
"Why are you still here? Didn't you take the trail to inform the towns?!!
Fei Chen's tone was a little hurried, he had already thought that something bad was going to happen, but he didn't dare to think about it, he could only wait for the panda head to say it himself, but this panda head was a little tiptoeing at the moment, and it took a long time to crawl out of the grass, his whole face looked pale, and he was obviously frightened a lot, as soon as he saw Fei Chen, he cried out, Fei Chen saw this situation, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked:
"Why are you crying? What's going on in town? Why are you here?"
Hearing Feichen's question, the panda head was still able to speak, and kept crying to himself, and after a while, he could say two words:
"Dead!"
Hearing the words of the panda head, Fei Chen was suddenly startled, hurriedly grabbed the panda head's clothes, pulled him over, and shouted:
"What? Dead? Who's dead?"
But at this moment, the panda head said those two words but did not continue, just crying in place, even if Feichen threatened with a sword, the panda head still ignored it, but for a while he didn't say who died tragically in what place. None of the bodies were found..
Fei Chen couldn't help but be a little flustered at the moment, his right hand holding the sword couldn't help but clench, grabbed the shoulder of the panda's head, and then said:
"I have to go back to the town, don't cry now, go to the state capital, find an official in the state capital, you must go to the official, just say that the people of Longyang Town have been washed in the town by bandits, and the people in the town are basically dead, let them send troops to suppress the bandits!
Seeing that the panda head was still crying vigorously despite his own persuasion, Fei Chen remembered slapping it, and then said viciously:
"What's the use of crying? Can your father come back alive? Ah! Hurry up, if you want to avenge your father, go to the state capital to report to the official!"
The panda head who was slapped by Feichen was a little aggrieved on his face, but he didn't sob, but he just looked like this on his face, but he just held on, after all, a teenage child couldn't stand it when he saw the Shura scene, and his relatives were dismembered and replaced.
"Hurry up, don't bother, if you go one step later, maybe the next town will suffer!
Hearing Fei Chen's words at this moment, the panda head nodded, but the tears were still rolling in his eyes.
Hearing the panda head's words, Fei Chen couldn't help lowering his head, then turned around and said solemnly:
"I'm going to the town to see if my mother is still alive, you just said that there are so many people in the town, but I haven't heard my mother, I think maybe my mother was not killed by bandits, I have to go and see, otherwise I don't worry."
After saying this, Fei Chen turned around and walked towards the town, but the panda head behind him chased after him, and hurriedly took Fei Chen's hand and said:
"You can't go, if those bandits are still in town, you go!
Before the panda head could finish speaking, Fei Chen slapped his hand down, and then shouted:
"My mother's life and death are uncertain, how can you let me feel at ease? Even if I die, I have to go back to see, the big deal is to die with my mother! It's better than now, you hurry up and report to the official, annoy me when you come back, be careful that I cut you with a sword, let you go to accompany your father now!
After saying that, Fei Chen also waved the sword in his hand as a threat. Panda Head was a little frightened when he saw Fei Chen like this, and hurriedly dodged to the side, and replied weakly:
"Then Brother Feichen, you must not die! There may be only two of us alive in the town, and my father and mother are dead... You are now my only "relative"..."
After the panda head said this, he turned around firmly and walked towards the official road of the state capital, Feichen turned his head to look at the figure of the panda head, and couldn't help but sigh a little, but he didn't dare to say it, so he could only read silently in his heart:
"Panda head, live well. ”
Feichen did not hesitate at all, running wildly from the trail along the way, this road was the ancient road in their town, and later the government came to lay the official road to facilitate the merchants to collect goods, so this difficult ancient road gradually no one to walk, usually a few young men in the town will walk twice when they come out to play, but it is really boring and there is no place to play, so they take this pastime, but Feichen and Panda Head are different, these two people are poor, although Feichen's father is a butcher, but the family actually does not raise pigs, can only buy piglets to sell, in exchange for some hard-earned money, the family is quite solid, but a few years ago it was stained with gambling, and the whole family was hollowed out, but also owed a lot of foreign debts for this, his mother Lu is also because of this often by the butcher father abused, life is miserable, and although the father of the panda head family is a blacksmith, but can not stand up to a virtue with Feichen's father, not like gambling but like prostitution, so come and go, the family has no money to spare, so these two brothers have been working hard since childhood, there are no conditions for ordinary people, so they can only go to this mountain, water for fun..
It didn't take long for the outline of the town to gradually emerge in front of Feichen's eyes, compared to the peace and tranquility of the town in the past, the town at the moment was full of devastation and embarrassment, only to see that the high-rise building of the Gu family was burning by everyone at the moment, and the relatively wealthy places nearby, many of them were also on fire, and some corpses outside the town were lying on the ground in disorder, most of the limbs could not be found, at most one body was lying there, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
Fei Chen couldn't help but want to vomit when he saw the scene in front of him, but he swallowed it back, he clenched the sword in his hand, and ran cautiously in the direction of his home, constantly observing the surroundings along the way, in order to prevent the bandits who were still cleaning up their loot from finding themselves, but when he ran for a while, he just arrived at the largest restaurant in the town, but he heard someone in the restaurant calling for help, Fei Chen suddenly stopped moving, and hid his breath in his chest, not daring to spit it out.
"Don't, don't, don't, Daddy, Daddy, where are you?!Daddy!"
A little girl is constantly calling for help above the restaurant, this voice is very familiar, she is one of the largest families in the town, Li Yuanwai's only daughter, obviously he has fallen into the hands of bandits at this moment, and the situation is critical.
Feichen suddenly wanted to draw his sword and rush to the second floor to save people, but he didn't want this person to be grabbed by his arm by a hand before he could start moving, and only heard one sentence:
"Don't worry, follow me!"
Before Feichen could react, there was a strong force in his hand, but he directly dragged Feichen into a family's house, and the middle-aged man who grabbed Feichen kept scanning the street, and was relieved to be sure that no one noticed the move just now, turned around and came to Feichen, and said softly:
"Can't be saved! There are five or six thieves above, and it is not only Li Yuanwai's beloved daughter who was arrested at the beginning, but also some daughters of other people's families.
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Feichen couldn't help but put down the sword in his hand, and then said with a sad and indignant face:
"Uncle Zhang, all the people in our town are dead? What about my mother? Is my mother too?"
Hearing Feichen's words, the person called Uncle Zhang looked a little struggling, and he didn't know how to persuade Feichen for a while, so he could only be silent.
Seeing the appearance of the person he called Uncle Zhang at this moment, Feichen's heart couldn't help sinking, and a sense of sadness came to his heart, the middle-aged man in front of him was none other than Uncle Panda Toudi, the militia captain of Longyang Town, Zhang Mouchang...
"This gang of bandits is not like an ordinary bandit, most of the bandits encountered before are scattered, the attack is not organized at all, and there is a lot less threat to us, but this time the bandits are not only well-equipped, but also the attack is very targeted, most of our militia brothers are croppers, and their training is limited, which is not enough to resist this kind of attack, and they are almost all dead.. Only a few of my brothers and I remained, and there were less than a dozen people.."
Hearing Zhang Mouchang's words, Feichen couldn't help but have a trace of despair in his heart, if even he couldn't solve these bandits, then this town would really be finished...
It's just that before Feichen could slow down, the inn's cry sounded again, but this time it was a different voice, it was none other than the classmate in Feichen's private school, Gu Suhang.
