Everyone lay motionless in the reeds and did not dare to move, but fortunately it was downwind here, and the reeds were high and dense, completely blocking the traces of the four people.

On the river beach, Shi Tian, the lord of the mining city, and a large number of guards were surrounded by black-clothed warriors.

Shi Tian said angrily: "Lord Qiu, what do you mean by this? Didn't you mean to invite me to Qicheng as a guest? Why do you want to trap us and wait for us?"

Opposite him, a thin middle-aged man in his forties stroked a burnt goate's goat and said:

"Brother Shitian, how old are you, why are you still so naïve when you speak?

Shi Tian's face turned blue, and Qiu Caibee, the city lord of Qicheng, said:

"Packing up a small mining city, I didn't have to come in person. However, in order not to affect the operation of your mine and support the new city lord to appease the people as soon as possible, the old man took time out of his busy schedule to come here, do you really think I am giving you face?"

Shi Tian nodded: "Yes, the city lord Qiu personally came to the mining city as a special envoy, which is a bit strange in itself. Hehe, it turns out that you are trying to get rid of me and support the puppet to come to power? Who is he?"

Qiu Caibee frowned and said, "You can't even guess who betrayed you now, and you, the city lord, have really done enough." Well, the old man told you so much that it can be regarded as a blind eye. ”

Qiu Caibee slowly took a step back, raised his hand and said, "Kill them all, not a single one will be left!"

"Yes!"

More than a dozen black-clothed warriors around him immediately swung their swords and slashed!

Although there are many guards in the mining city, it is a pity that their martial arts are much worse than those of the black-clothed warriors, and they can't resist it with their bare hands, and a one-sided massacre was staged on the river beach!

Ji Longjun and the others were terrified, they were just teenagers, where had they ever seen such a bloody scene?

What's more, it was the city lord and elite guards of their mining city who were slaughtered!

Ji Longjun's eyes were sharp, and he saw a familiar back in the fallen figures one by one.

"Ah, third uncle......!"

Ji Longjun let out a scream, which alerted the black-clothed samurai on the other side of the river.

Qiu Caibee said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze, don't let one go, kill them all!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, two black-clothed warriors waded over, their machetes in their hands stained with blood and expressionless on their faces.

Ji Longjun, Ji Kai, and Ji are not directly stupid.

Who would have thought that the family members who had just said goodbye when they went out in the morning would die directly in front of them at this moment?

Especially Ji Ye, he also recognized that the person who was killed was his father.

Ji Bu's slender eyes were wide open, his face was pale, and his whole body trembled violently.

Shi Dalei looked at the black-clothed warrior who was rushing quickly, and said hurriedly: "Hey......! What are you shouting, Longjun!"

It's too late to escape, how can a few children outrun a super killer with strong martial arts even if they run fast?

Shi Dalei was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and his eyes were full of panic.

Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he hurriedly pushed the three brothers of Ji Longjun into the puddle next to him, and covered them with dense reeds.

Shi Dalei gasped and said, "Longjun, you ...... You must live well! Don't be impulsive!"

Shi Dalei glanced back at the two black-clothed warriors who had already run to the middle of the river, gritted his teeth and said:

"Longjun, good luck to us!"

Shi Dalei threw the iron sword into the puddle, plucked up the courage to jump up and ran in the opposite direction!

He shouted loudly as he ran, immediately attracting the attention of the two black-clad warriors. The samurai immediately performed a supreme light feat, and the black figure quickly disappeared into the willow forest.

"Ah......h

After a few breaths, a child's scream was heard from the willow forest......

Ji Longjun's pale little face was bloodless, and he covered the mouths of his two younger brothers tightly, forcibly holding back not to make a single sound.

Ji Longjun almost bit his lips alive......

On the opposite side of the river beach, the city lord of Shitian and a large number of his guards had been slaughtered, Qiu Caifeng said coldly: "Deal with this place immediately, don't leave a trace!"

"Yes!"

The black-clothed warriors automatically split into two groups, one group returned to the mining city with Qiu Caibee, and the other group dragged the body to a distant place to bury it.

The samurai all left, and Ji Longjun's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he lay limp in the puddle.

The sky was getting dark, the breeze was blowing, and the reeds were gently swaying.

"Quack...... Wail...... Quack ......"

The surrounding frogs chirped, and even a frog jumped on Ji Kai's head.

But Ji Kai didn't realize it.

Ji Longjun slowly crawled out of the puddle and pulled his two younger brothers out.

"Dakai, don't ...... either" Ji Longjun snorted, "Let's ......"

Seeing his father killed, Ji has already collapsed into a log.

Ji Longjun was suddenly surprised: "It's not good......! They said they were going back to the mining city, and the father and second uncle ......!"

"Get up, get up! We need to get back and report the news!"

Ji Longjun immediately panicked, quickly pulled up his two younger brothers, and dragged one in one hand to run in the direction of the mining city.

By the time they ran back to the mining city, it was already dark.

The streets, which should have been darkened a long time ago, were filled with sky-high fires, and guards on horseback ran back and forth, cries and screams one after another.

Ji Longjun hurriedly said: "Go home quickly!"

The three brothers ran a few streets, and when they came to the mouth of their own alley, they were immediately stunned.

The three brothers of the Ji family live next to each other, and the courtyard walls of each other are connected, covering a huge area.

But at this moment, all the houses in the Ji family's compound were on fire. The raging flames made it impossible for people to get close, and the fire demon burst into the sky with teeth and claws, taking advantage of the wind to show more power.

Ji Longjun sat on the ground with his butt.

It's late, it's late.

At the same time, Qiu Caibee announced Shi Tian's death sentence on the charges of secretly expanding the guards, assassinating halfway, and attempting to rebel.

Of course, Shakti had already been corrected on the spot when he performed the assassination.

Wang Lun, the deputy city lord, succeeded him as the new city lord of the mining city, continued his allegiance to Qicheng, and assisted the black-clothed warriors of Qicheng to capture a large number of Shi Tian's cronies and take them away for investigation.

What survey?

It was nothing more than to take these guards to a deserted place outside the city and slaughter them again.

In this way, Ji Longjun and his two younger brothers became orphans.

This happened three days ago.

For the past three days, Ji Longjun and his two younger brothers have huddled in the only small brick room left after the fire was extinguished.

This is the only "family property" left by the three of them, but it can still shelter from the wind and rain.

You don't have to go to the academy, and you don't have to go to this life.

There is no money to pay the tuition, and there is no father and mother to force him to study, and he still goes to school?

Eating the leftovers of cold porridge from the neighbors every day, Ji Longjun was silent, Ji Kai's eye sockets were deep, and Ji Bu simply lay on the ground with his eyes open every day, looking at the roof motionlessly.

......

"Hey, second aunt, the old Ji family child is really pitiful! ”

"It's not good, we used to envy the old Ji family, and the three brothers all followed the Lord of Shitian City as guards, and they were promising......!

"Second aunt, be careful when you speak! Now that the sky has changed, that person's name doesn't dare to mention it again!"

"Oh yes yes yes let's go quickly! It's too bad luck here, let's go ...... it."

The chatter outside the door faded away, and finally fell silent again.

Why is Ji Longjun reluctant to take his two younger brothers out?

Because walking on the street, whenever they meet neighbors, they will always point and sigh:

"The old Ji family is too miserable, and the children of the Ji family are too pitiful!"

Ji Longjun couldn't wait to get into the cracks in the ground, he had heard enough of such words, and he didn't want to hear a word anymore!

But he had to listen.

Why?

Because every day at noon and evening, the kind aunts and aunts in the neighborhood will take the leftovers of the family to help them.

Put down the meal, and before leaving, the aunts and aunts will shake their heads and sigh:

"Poor thing!"

Pitiful—— these three words made Ji Longjun have an indescribable impulse.

He wanted to run wild, he wanted to go crazy, he wanted to smash everything he could see and touch!

He wants to howl unbridledly!

But he couldn't.

Because he still has two younger brothers to take care of, he has to be patient, and he needs the cold porridge leftovers from the neighbors to feed his two younger brothers.

After all, Ji Longjun was only twelve years old and had not yet been able to support himself.

Such days lasted for three days.

At noon today, Ji Longjun and his two younger brothers waited for a long time, but no one came to give them a little food.

Ji Kai's stomach ......was "gurgling", he was lying on his side on the ground, one hand gently rubbing his belly, which was full of folds.

Ji Kai said weakly: "Brother, I'm hungry ......"

"Gollum ......"

As if to prove his judgment, Ji Kai's stomach screamed again.

Ji Longjun nodded and did not speak.

"It's time for those days to come to an end. Ji Longjun secretly thought: "Don't say that you will take revenge in the future, in less than three days, I am afraid that we will starve to death at home." ”

"But what if you don't, take the broken bowl and take your two younger brothers to the street to beg for food?"

"And then over and over again, day after day, I listened to others talking behind their backs: so pitiful! so unlucky! So sad!?"

Ji Longjun suddenly grabbed a broken bowl in front of him and threw it on the ground!

"Smack......!"

The porcelain bowl was shattered, and crumbs were scattered everywhere.
