Chapter 9 Something More Precious Than Life

Hearing the shouting outside, Yan Chi shook his head helplessly, and seemed to be very familiar with the people shouting outside.

"A friend of mine, who has a bit of a straight temperament, makes you laugh. ”

"What's funny about this, but it can be seen that his relationship with Brother Yan is very good. ”

Yun Que shook his head and looked out of the window of the inn, only to see that five or six people had gathered outside at the moment, led by a big man with a beard.

It was this big man with a beard who had just shouted, his face was rough, his eyes were bright, he was wearing a coarse cloth coat, and he was carrying a long knife with a black handle on his back, and he looked like a powerful man.

"I was thinking of entertaining you two well, but now it seems that it can't be done, which is really rude. ”

Yan Chi glanced out the window, stood up and said to Yun Que and the others, and prepared to go outside to see what was going on.

"Brother Yan said this to see the outside, it was my brother and sister who came here to disturb me, and I haven't thanked you for your generosity, how can I be rude?"

Seeing that Yan Chi wanted to salute, Yun Que hurriedly got up to avoid it, waved his hand at Yan Chi, and then said: "I have nothing to do with Xiaoyi, why don't I go out with Brother Yan to have a look, if there is anything that needs help, the two of us can also help." ”

"It's not necessary to help, it's nothing more than something caused by those displaced people, so I'll come forward and persuade it. ”

Yan Chi saw that Yun Que wanted to go out with him to have a look, and he didn't object, turned around and walked outside with Yun Que and the others, but what he said made Yun Que a little curious.

"Wanderers, are they people from outside Jiangnan?"

Hearing what Yan Chi said, Yun Que and Le Qingyi glanced at each other, both remembering the things they encountered on the way to Jiangnan, thinking of this, Yun Que hurriedly asked.

"Have you met it too? It's those people, the sudden changes in the heavens and the earth, which have led to the emergence of evil demons and frequent disasters in various places, but they have taken pity on these ordinary people. ”

Yan Chi heard Yun Que's question, turned his head to look at him, and asked a rhetorical question, with sympathy for those homeless people and sighs for what happened to them.

Yun Que didn't say anything when he heard this, where is the word pitiful for those ordinary people, Yun Que has seen many dead bodies along the way, and the scene along the way is as if there had been a war, showing desolation.

When the three of them came outside, before Yan Chi could speak, the bearded man stepped forward and put his arms around Yan Chi's neck, "You guy, why did you close the store today, did you know that my Lao Guan was coming to you and deliberately avoided me?"

Wrapped around his neck by the beard, Yan Chi showed a wry smile on his face, he reached out and broke the beard's hand, and said helplessly: "Where am I hiding from you! Isn't this a friend, I want to treat them well, so I closed the door early." ”

"What friend? I closed the door early in the morning, but I've never seen you treat me like this. ”

When the bearded man heard Yan Chi's words, he squinted at Yun Que and the others, and looked at Yan Chi with some teasing.

"Okay, it's my fault, I'll make it up to you another day, now you can talk about what happened to me. ”

Yan Chi listened to the teasing words of the beard, and also shook his head a little funny, and asked after agreeing to it.

"What else can happen, it's going to be a mess again!"

The beard reached out and plucked his nostrils, as if he had become accustomed to what was in his mouth.

"Alas, they're all miserable, what are they for?"

When Yan Chi heard this, he sighed a little helplessly, although the people in the town are not all good people, but they are not very mean, I am afraid that those people among the displaced people have done something excessive.

It's not that Yan Chi is prejudiced against them, it's actually that since these homeless people came here, a lot of such things have happened.

Because he was hungry, he went to steal other people's money to buy food, went to the inn to eat overlord meals together, robbed children's snacks on the road, and even robbed the butcher's raw meat to eat, in order to survive, he would do almost anything.

"What else could it be, a woman stole the Ganoderma lucidum from the pharmacy, and now the shopkeeper of the pharmacy is grabbing people and beating them. ”

The bearded man stretched out his hand and pointed in one direction, and said a little flatly.

"What? Why don't you stop it, if someone dies, you'll be in trouble. ”

The beard said plainly, but Yan Chi couldn't calm down at all when he heard it, and hurriedly ran in the direction that the beard was pointing.

Yun Que and Le Qingyi glanced at each other, and hurriedly caught up with Yan Chi's footsteps.

"Hey, Lao Yan, it's not that I'm not righteous, the pharmacy is Lejia's, I can't manage it, you can do it yourself!"

Yun Que and the others caught up with Yan Chi's footsteps, and they heard the bearded man shouting behind him to explain.

"Rokuja!?"

Yun Que heard the words of the beard, and glanced back at Le Qingyi behind him, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Is it my drugstore?"

Le Qingyi also thought of this when she heard the words of the beard, and couldn't help frowning slightly, if the people in her pharmacy killed someone, then she would definitely not spare the other party.

Thinking of this, a chill appeared on Le Qingyi's beautiful face.

After a while, Yun Que and the three of them came to the pharmacy that the bearded man said.

I saw that the door of the pharmacy was already full of people, some people from the town, and some of the homeless people in Yanchikou, most of the people in the small town were dressed in coarse cloth, and those homeless people were dressed in tatters, and they looked like they were not covered by clothes.

When Yan Chi saw this scene, his brows furrowed, and he eagerly pushed away the crowd in front of him and walked in, and Yun Que, who was following behind Yan Chi, saw this and hurriedly pulled Le Qingyi and squeezed in.

Walking into the crowd, Yun Que and the three of them saw the scene, only to see a thin middle-aged woman holding a rectangular box tightly, lying on the ground, her body was covered with marks of beating with sticks, and the bare skin was covered with scars, some new and some old, and the clothes were stained red with blood.

But in spite of this, the middle-aged woman clung to the rectangular box and refused to let go, as if she were holding her own child, and lay there motionless and tightly, heavily, like a statue.

"You woman, what is the reason why we kindly gave you a bite to eat, but you stole our things? ”

In front of the woman, a brocade-clad man with a whip strode forward, and he pointed to the woman lying on the ground, and said with some anger.

And the black whip in the hand of the brocade man was still slowly dripping with blood, and a drop of blood-red blood fell to the ground and burst out, like blood roses.

The woman lying on the ground did not answer when she heard the words of the man in brocade, but held the box in her arms even harder, as if she was afraid that if she did not exert herself a little, the box would disappear.

When the man in brocade with the blood-dripping whip saw the woman like this, he was even more furious, and he raised his hand and prepared to beat the woman lying on the ground again with the whip.

Seeing this scene, Yan Chi hadn't made a move to stop him, Yun Que who was standing beside him had already made a move, only to see Yun Que pull out the long sword in his hand, throw out the white scabbard, and the white scabbard drew a white line in the air, and hit the brocade man who was about to hit someone.

Bang!

The man in brocade was hit by the white scabbard thrown out by Yun Que, his body was crooked, and he flew out at once, hitting the door of the pharmacy with a loud bang.

"Who?!"

The guys standing next to the pharmacy saw that the shopkeeper was suddenly beaten away, and they were all a little panicked, supporting the shopkeeper and the treasurer, and looking for weapons, and they were in a mess for a while.

"Stop!"

Seeing this scene, Yan Chi stepped forward and yelled with enough internal strength.

Hearing Yan Chi's roar, the guys in those pharmacies were all startled, forgot their movements for a while, and froze there.

"Who are you? Why did you attack me? ”

The brocade-clothed man who was beaten by Yun Que stroked his chest, stood up with the support of the people next to him, looked at Yun Que standing in front of the crowd and asked in a deep voice.

"I asked him to beat him, you don't have to ask him who he is, you just need to know who I am. ”

Hearing the words of the brocade man, Le Qingyi took a step forward, stood in front of Yun Que and looked at the brocade man and replied.

"Ahem, who are you?"

The brocade-clothed man clutched his chest and coughed twice, looking at Le Qingyi standing in front of Yun Que with a gloomy face.

"You just need to know my surname Le, as for my name, you don't need to know. ”

Le Qingyi didn't care about the gloomy face of the man in brocade, and there was a slight chill on his pretty face.

"Surname Le, are you ......?"

When the man in brocade heard Le Qingyi say that her surname was Le, his face couldn't help but froze, and he frowned tightly, and he suddenly had a bad guess.

"Ma'am, are you alright?"

Yan Chi glanced at the man in brocade with a cloudy face, walked up to the woman lying on the ground, and stretched out his hand to help her up.

Syllable!

Unexpectedly, the woman opened Yan Chi's outstretched hand and stared at Yan Chi tightly with a pair of bloodshot eyes, her face full of vigilance.

"Let me do it!"

Seeing this, Le Qingyi no longer paid attention to the man in brocade, ran to the woman quickly, waved his hand at Yan Chi, who was a little embarrassed, and motioned for her to come.

Hearing this, Yan Chi looked at the woman with a vigilant face, put away his hand with some embarrassment, and walked to the side.

Seeing this, Yun Que picked up the scabbard on the ground, walked to Yan Chi's side, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, as if to comfort him.

Yan Chi felt Yun Que's movements, and a wry smile appeared on his face, he didn't feel anything, but after being slapped by Yun Que, he suddenly felt a little sad.
