Chapter 124 Mengshan Town Sickness continues

Feng Chen's face was full of sadness when he was worried too much, and he was discovered by Mercy at a glance. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Mintian was jumping and coaxing the senior brother to be happy all the way, but the senior brother still had no expression on his face as usual. The road is full of wilderness sand and stones, compared to Meiling, it is really heaven and earth, but the further north you go, the more desolate it becomes, except for the sand and dust in the sky and the weeds that have been swept away by the wind, there are fewer and fewer other living things. Min Tian covered his stomach and shouted that he was hungry, and Feng Chen had no way to deal with him, so he had to let him sit in place and rest, and go to see what he could eat in the surrounding wilderness, and even the birds in the sky were so thin that only bones and feathers remained. Feng Chen sighed as he walked towards the weeds behind him, and suddenly heard a loud noise from the grass, a roar of a fierce beast.

When Feng Chen turned around again, he found that the senior brother was dragging the tails of a tiger towards him. I didn't kill when I was a child, but now in order to solve your hunger problem, I have knocked this beast out of you. Min Tian looked at the fainting tiger, then looked at the blood stains on the palm of his brother's hand, and complained, "Then I might as well find some wild fruits to eat." After saying that, he patted his ass and continued to walk forward. Just didn't take a few steps, suddenly from behind a few big men in animal skins cheered: "The tiger was killed by a strong man! The tiger is dead!" Several strong men danced in front of Min Tian, Feng Chen was suspicious in his heart, this is not Jingyanggang, and he is not Wu Song, how could these hunting tigers appear, should he lift himself up and take him back to the village for a while. As soon as he thought of this, several big men lifted the seal dust, threw it into the air and caught it, shouting: "Hero, hero!" Min Tian hurriedly pushed these people away, grabbed his senior brother's clothes and pulled them down: "Hurry up and put my senior brother down! What are you doing here!" This tiger has lived in my Mengshan Mountain for several years, you look at the desertion in the mountains because this beast occupies the land, provoked no one to pass here, we have to go to Xi'an Mansion and have to detour, now we are hiding here, is afraid that this tiger will hurt the travelers who do not know the danger here. Feng Chen asked suspiciously: "Doesn't the government care?" The hunters put down the long three-pronged knife in their hands, took out the long rope and tied the tiger first, and then the swarthy hunter said: "The government has long been empty, except for a fictitious county office. Another strong man added: "Now that there is another war in the north, and the imperial court has increased its troops, where is there anyone in our small place?" The strong man who lifted the tiger smiled and said, "We are not afraid of death, and it is natural for us to die to defend the country." The old mother, wife and children at home have no one to take care of, if the two strong men don't dislike it, they will go to our Mengshan Town. ”

Finally met a group of hunters who recognized the way in this mountain range, Feng Chen and Min Tian were even more pleased, Feng Chen wanted to know from these hunters whether there was another way to Meiling, and Min Tian was happy that he could eat a full meal, and he no longer had to eat the sour fruits that his senior brother did not know where to pick. But with this line of tiger hunting back to the village only to find that this Mengshan town is actually an abandoned city, although it is far from the border pass, but this place is really big, but the street is very deserted, only a few shops open doors, compared to in Xi'an City, there is nothing here, walking on the street is indeed a few ragged women, the people on the street see the town to come to the guests are all surprised to look. Min Tian quietly asked Senior Brother: "The people in this town are so weird, don't you see us dressed brightly to make them envious?" Feng Chen glared at Min Tian: "You kid thinks of others like this, they should not be hungry and don't even have decent clothes." Squatting on the side of the road sat a scrawny girl, with an infant baby in her arms, and took off her coat and draped it over the girl, who looked frightened and grateful.

The dark-skinned eldest brother pointed to a decent room in front of him and said to Min Tian and Feng Chen: "That's my house in front, almost all the young people in this town are married, it's me who fights singles, and the two heroes don't dislike my simplicity, just come with me!" After speaking, the four hunters behind him carried the tiger to the wooden frame in the square, lit firewood and prepared to roast the tiger. Feng Chen hurriedly stopped: "God has the virtue of a good life, although this beast hurts people, we can't be so cruel!" The four hunters did not give up, and one of the hunters said: "In this guy's belly, I want to see how many human heads are eaten!" Another hunter said: "This beast's skin is peeled and it is just to make a felt mat and send it to the owner of the plum village." The other two stopped the dust and didn't let him get closer.

There is nothing to be done about sealing the dust, who let this tiger hurt a lot of people in the village, such a cause and effect should be so. Min Tian shouted: "Senior brother, come quickly, let's go back to this big brother's house to rest and eat something for a while." Feng Chen followed Min Tian and the dark-skinned hunter back home, just pushed open the wooden door, was shaken off by the dust on the door, Min Tian said angrily: "Where is this where people live, you see this spider web is woven all over the house!" The hunter said comfortably: "I don't go home on weekdays, I go to live in other villagers' houses, and this house has been empty." Feng Chen hurriedly helped the eldest brother move the table and wipe the stool clean. While busy, he asked: "I don't know what this big brother is called?" The dark-skinned strong man suddenly turned his head and smiled: "When I was a child, there was still a private school in our town, and my name was given to me by my mother, Mr. Tuona, called Lu Yi." Min Tian laughed: "The 'one' of one, two, three, four?" The eldest brother nodded: "Because the only son in the family, he is the only descendant of the Lu family." Feng Chen asked suspiciously: "I don't know which Zhongliang queen?" The strong man lowered his head and said with a smile: "It's not a big surname, it's just that the ancestor is the Lu Pheasant family." ”

The house was finally cleaned up, and Brother Lu was about to go out to get some firewood and come back to live and cook, but Feng Chen went out with him: "Brother Lu, I will go with you, and there are still some things I want to ask you." Min Tian's eyes went straight to each other, and he was about to fall asleep on the table sleepily.

The streets were still deserted, except for the occasional emaciated pedestrian or two. Feng Chen pointed to the ruined scene on the street and asked, "Brother Lu, why is your town so depressed and deserted?" Brother Lu glanced around helplessly: "They all say that this tiger is to blame, but this is not the case. Feng Chen then asked: "Big brother, if there is something unspeakable, it is better to say it and see if there is a way to solve it." Brother Lu shook his head and said: "This town is also called 'ghost town' by outsiders, many years ago, there was an epidemic here everywhere, and many infected people died one after another. If one of us is infected with an epidemic, then it will not be a problem for everyone to go to the barracks, so the people here will not leave the town until they die. ”
