Chapter 5 Strange Jade Pendant

Jiang Li listened to the two women's stories, and his heart gradually understood. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that this group of people was a thief in the Tianhu Mountain, and since the war, they have been entrenched here, robbing houses and houses on weekdays, and grabbing some money and food.

Now that there are more people fleeing in this area, there are naturally fewer things to rob, so the bandits have plundered some able-bodied victims up the mountain for them to drive.

It's just that this gang of bandits is even more concerned about teenage children, and looking at this kind of formation, even if they leave the victims alone, they have to catch a few children up the mountain.

The two women did not know why, but they knew that every other day the bandits would bring some children, and they would wash them and take care of them for a while.

As for where he was taken by the bandits, he didn't know, but he brought them all back, and they were trained by the bandits, but they became ignorant, as if he couldn't remember the previous events very clearly.

Jiang Li couldn't figure it out, after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that when he was gone, there were occasionally some old and weak women and children, and they disappeared overnight, and a chill arose in his heart.

But if you think about it carefully, the reason is not so simple, anyway, if you stay for a few days, you have to see what is going on, so you don't care about him.

Jiang Li asked about the situation in the cottage again, and the two women picked out some important ones and told Jiang Li one by one.

The bearded three masters, named Xiong Biao, was originally a butcher who killed pigs and sold meat, and he was used to seeing bloody scenes on weekdays.

There is also the middle-aged man who looks like a chivalrous man, called Song Chenfei, who is the second leader in this Tianhu Village.

This person learned some kung fu when he was young, and he was good at swordsmanship, and he also wanted to fight the sword world, in addition to helping the strong and the weak, but he only knew that this hero was not good, so he went to a martial arts hall and became a coach.

Later, when the Anchuan War began, the martial arts hall had no livelihood, and Song Chenfei could live a comfortable life with his kung fu. Unexpectedly, his wife and children were infected with a serious disease, and there was no cure for it, so he became a lonely person from then on, so he simply went to Tianhu Mountain to fall into the grass and become a coward, relying on his kung fu to sit firmly in the second place in this cottage.

The big boss in Tianhu Village, named Yang Yuancheng, is said to have been a lieutenant colonel in the army, and he lost the battle at the beginning of the war, and his men and horses were almost wiped out, only he and a few personal soldiers fought out of the encirclement, this person was afraid of being dealt with by military law after going back, so he fled with a few subordinates pretending to be disaster victims.

Soon after, Yang Yuancheng recruited more than a dozen people, went to Tianhu Mountain, and became a bandit since then.

After all, Yang Yuancheng was born in the army, and now it is a troubled era, just two or three years of operation, now there are nearly 100 bandits in the tiger village, and there are as many as 100 civilians who loot the mountain, which is also quite powerful in this area.

"Do you have any relatives at home?" Jiang Li asked.

The two of them heard this, but they were speechless, their faces darkened, and they hid their faces and wept, "Woo woo woo......

When Jiang Li saw this scene, he knew that his own questioning was too redundant, and these two wanted to fall into the cottage, and they were also lonely people like himself, and they couldn't help but feel sympathy in their hearts, but now they are not much better, let alone help.

"Then I don't know if anyone has escaped from this cottage?" Jiang Li thought that this Tianhu Cottage is not an impregnable wall, so many people have been caught, there will always be people who will try to escape, and the left and right here are just meat on the bandit board, if there is such a way, Jiang Li also wants to give it a try.

One of the women replied, "When I first came, many people tried to escape, but the thief who had slain a thousand knives sent men to patrol day and night, and those who tried to escape were caught, beaten half to death, and hung on the gatehouse. ”

"Is there really no way?" Jiang said secretly.

After the two women retreated, Jiang Li lay on the bed, recalling everything that happened today, which caught him off guard, and originally wanted to escape farther away from Lao Li, avoid the war, and find a stable life, not wanting Lao Li to die in the mountains and wilderness like this, and even the corpse could not be buried in the ground.

Jiang Li took out the jade pendant, took a closer look, and found no abnormality, Xu has experienced too much this day, Jiang Li is also very sleepy at the moment, put away the jade pendant, and fell asleep after a while.

The jade pendant was in front of Jiang Li's chest, and there seemed to be ripples in the cloud patterns, fading the original dull color, becoming warm and translucent, and then the light became brighter and brighter, and suddenly turned into a streamer and shot into Jiang Li's eyebrows.

Jiang Li woke up instantly, his heart was panicked, but he found that he was not in the room, the surrounding fog was vast, he didn't know where he was at the moment, he was a little scared in his heart, and shouted: "But someone is here?

After waiting for a long time and seeing no response, Jiang Li cautiously probed the broken steps under his feet, trying to get out of this fog.

After walking for more than ten steps, the fog gradually faded, and he could see a little that there was a courtyard in front of him, and Jiang Li still had some familiar feelings.

He hurried to find himself standing in a courtyard, a young man pacing back and forth outside the door, his face full of anxiety, and the screams of women could be heard from time to time in the room.

"Father!" Jiang Li saw that this person was his father Jiang Xingluo, but he looked a little younger.

Jiang Li rushed towards Jiang Xingluo with an arrow step, trying to hug him, his hands were ringed, but there was nothing in his arms, Jiang Li was stunned for a while, and waved his hand a few times in front of Jiang Xingluo, but Jiang Xingluo couldn't see him at all, still pacing back and forth.

"What's going on, dreams? Why are they so real? ”

Jiang Xuan was a little frightened, and he couldn't figure out what was going on, he was clearly lying on the bed in Tianhu Cottage, why did he come here, this was clearly the Jiang family's mansion, the courtyard where he and his parents lived.

Suddenly, a baby's cry came from the room, and after a while, I saw the door open, and an old woman came out of the room, and said with a happy face: "I have given birth! Mother and child are safe! Congratulations to the young master on getting a son!"

Before Jiang Li could figure out the reason for this, Jiang Xingluo's face was swept away with anxiety when he heard this, and he rushed into the room quickly, Jiang Li also followed in, and saw Jiang Xingluo sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the woman lying on the bed tightly with both hands, and said softly: "Qin'er, you have suffered." ”

This woman is Jiang Li's mother, Han Yunqin, her face is pale at the moment, bloodless, her breath is weak, and her speech is a little intermittent.

Jiang Li had already seen it, this was clearly the scene when he was born, and he didn't look for the reason at this moment, and when he saw his parents again, he was already in tears.

"Husband, let me see our children. ”

The old woman carried the baby in her arms to the two of them, and the baby in the swaddling clothes showed only a small face, closed his eyes, and cried "wow".

The couple looked at the newborn child dotingly, and the dew couldn't help but fall from the corners of their eyes.

Jiang Xingluo took out a jade pendant from his waist and put it in swaddling clothes, Jiang Li could see clearly that this was the one he had been wearing on his body.

Suddenly, things around him became blurred, everything gradually faded away, Jiang Li shouted: "Don't! Don't!" He tried to catch Jiang Xingluo, but he couldn't touch Jiang Xingluo, and after a while, he was in the fog again.

Jiang Li searched everywhere, and then walked into a courtyard, and saw two five or six-year-old children, squatting on the ground.

One of the children looked somewhere and said anxiously: "Leave my brother, the private school will start school soon, if we are late, Mr. will definitely have to play the board again." ”

"Don't be afraid, if Old Man Zhang hits you, you will run. He is old and dizzy, and he will definitely not be able to catch up with you. ”

"Sir can't chase me, my dad must be able to grab me and spank me with a hand!"

"Okay, okay, you see. ”

"Brother Li" stopped in his hand, but in front of him was a little rabbit, injured from nowhere, his hind legs were wrapped in strips of cloth, and blood oozed out, a bright red.

This is a rabbit that Jiang Li picked up with his cousin in his childhood, and his hind leg was injured, and the two tore their clothes to wrap the wound of the rabbit, missed the time for the start of the private school, and were taught a lesson by their parents because of damaged clothes.

After that, the scene changed, but it was in Jiang Xingluo's couple's room.

Jiang Li remembered that his mother was sick and bedridden that year, at this time, "Jiang Li" held a bowl of decoction in his little hand, served his mother to take it, and said that he would protect his mother for the rest of his life, Han Yunqin touched "Jiang Li" head with a look of relief.

The scene changed again, and I saw "Jiang Li" sneaking out of Jiang's mansion, bulging in his arms, as if he was hiding something.

He walked out into the street, stopped in front of a few victims, took out the cloth bag in his arms, but it was a few flatbreads, and the victims all kowtowed to thank them and ate them in large gulps.

The scene turned again, this time it was in front of Jiang's mansion, surrounded by a large number of victims, Jiang Li stood in the middle of the victims, only to hear someone shouting: "Rush in, the Jiang family's animals are delicious and delicious, but let us starve to death on the streets, rush in and there will be a way to live!"

"Rush in!"

"There's definitely food in there!"

Jiang Li's face turned pale at this time, this was the day when Jiang's mansion was broken, he was a little unsteady, he didn't dare to look, turned around and staggered away.

I don't know how long I ran, Jiang Li couldn't stop panting, there were pitch black pieces around him, and there were sporadic fires, this was clearly outside the broken temple, "Jiang Li" and Lao Li fell to the ground, Chen Juncai came from behind, his hand was up and down, and Lao Li was in a different place.

"Phew, the old thing still dares to play tricks!" Chen Juncai spat at Lao Li's corpse and teased.

Jiang Li was already crying at this moment, he knew that this was just his own experience, but the scene of Lao Li's death was so real again, Jiang Li was so grief-stricken that he sat on the ground, and only his own weak cry was in his ears.

This scene gradually faded, Jiang Li was in the fog again, and a voice came from his ear, "Little friend, come here." ”

Jiang Li wanted to find out, stood up, wiped away his tears, and left.

After walking dozens of steps, the front suddenly opened up, but it was an incomparably empty place, a jade pendant hung in the air, dazzling, and there was a person under it, sitting cross-legged on the futon.

Jiang Li looked at it intently, and saw that this person was wearing a green shirt, with his head tied in a bun, his long hair draped on his back, his face was handsome, he was only twenty years old, and he was looking at himself with a smile.

After Jiang Li took a closer look, he found that this person was actually a phantom, like a legendary ghost.

Jiang Li was still a child after all, so he was frightened, and unconsciously took two steps back, and asked in a trembling voice, "Where is this?" You, are you a human or a ghost?"
