The sun is like fire.

The government officials hid under the shade of the trees, lazily watching the figures of the farmers moving with difficulty under the scorching sun.

Xuchang Tun was the earliest farming land in the Wei Dynasty and also the most complete.

A farm visitor's day is clearly arranged.

There are fixed times for when to eat, when to drink water, when to defecate, and when to sleep.

In addition to completing the labor services set by the government, the farmers were sometimes dragged into the fields of powerful military leaders of the gentry to continue working.

Ma Long was not used to it at first, feeling like an ox or a horse, but after staying there for a month, he suddenly found that he was somewhat used to it.

I'm used to the crowds of zombies around me, and I'm used to being so tired every day that I don't have to think about it.

But if a person can endure one day in the mud, he can endure it for a month, a year, and then a lifetime...

Every night, the numbness and despair penetrate deeply into my bones.

Occasionally, you can hear cries coming from the wild, whether it is the ashes of wild ghosts or the roar of wind and owl.

There are more and more "green cows".

Since Sima and his son came to power, they ordered hundreds of officials to recommend talents, rectify the discipline, and make them have their respective responsibilities, so that the government and the public could be solemn and clear.

But this clarity does not belong to the people in the mud.

Rather, it belongs to the gentry, officials, celebrities, and Confucian scholars.

One general's success will destroy ten thousand bones.

When a wealthy family rises, there are also thousands of people, and all the people are stepped into the abyss of darkness.

The fields were taken away, wives and children became slaves, the young and strong became farmers, and the old and weak were driven into the wilderness, left to fend for themselves and no one cared about them.

"Heh, heh, you want to leave?" Sui Shiyi said, staring at Ma Long.

The eyes were like a ghost staring at another person who was about to become a ghost.

Ma Long frowned. No one wants to stay in this hellish place for the rest of his life. His hands secretly worked hard, and his veins were bulging. His whole body was slightly arched like a leopard. He could cut off Sui Shiyi's neck in the shortest time.

neck.

There is an order in the garrison that anyone who reports a fugitive will, upon verification, be rewarded with an ox bone and rest for three days.

Those who are caught running away will be nailed to wooden stakes in the fields and left to die in the wind and sun for three days. Their broken bodies will be eaten by snakes, insects, rats, and ants until they are turned into black bones.

Sui Shiyi chuckled, which was especially scary in the middle of the night. He was not afraid of Ma Long's eyes at all. A few sparse yellow teeth supported his big black hole-like mouth, and he supported him tremblingly with a wooden stick.

"Five years ago, I had the same idea, but I didn't have the guts at the time."

His voice was unusually low, as if he had used all his strength to say these words.

"You are still a human being, and we have become ghosts." Sui Shiyi cried again.

The cry seemed to be contagious, causing other people to cry.

"Why are you crying! You lazy, damned people are disturbing grandpa's sleep."

Bang, bang, bang...

The guards' wooden sticks hit the barracks hard.

The crying stopped suddenly.

All sounds disappeared.

The guard walked away satisfied, not even bothering to look.

Ma Long turned around and saw a pair of eyes behind him glowing dimly in the moonlight.

"Run away, run away...Before you die, you must do one or two decent things." Sui Shiyi's voice suddenly became excited, with a little bit of the breath of a living person, and then his eyes glanced at the pair of expectant people.

eyes.

As more and more Qingniu join, they will become less and less useful.

There are more and more black skeletons in the fields.

"Tou Sui, I, I'm going to take a pee." One person walked out of the camp.

Before he had taken two steps, Sui Shiyi grabbed his arm, stared at him with ghostly eyes, and said with a smile: "Wang Heifu, are you going to report us? There are so many people, enough to get you out of slavery."

Wang Heifu's whole body trembled, and he forced out an ugly smile, "Suitou'er is joking..."

Halfway through his words, a black shadow suddenly struck down, and there was a muffled sound in the darkness.

Wang Heifu's whole body froze.

Then, Sui Shiyi struck the wooden staff with his right hand for the second time and the third time on his head...

Until Wang Heifu collapsed softly.

Sui Shiyi opened a secret door in the corner and said hoarsely: "Run away, run away!"

Farmers flocked in.

Ma Long helped Sui Shi go down and looked back at the body on the ground, but there were already a dozen farmers surrounding him like crows.

A smell of blood spreads...

You can't see your fingers in the dark passage, and the smell of putrid smell floats in the breeze.

The villagers couldn't see anything and struggled to crawl forward in the narrow corridor.

I don’t know how long it took, but I finally saw a ray of bright white moonlight floating above my head.

Climbing out of the tunnel, Malone suddenly found himself standing in a mass grave.

The green phosphorus fire illuminated the surroundings like ghosts.

The garrison camp not far away was silent in the night.

The farmers cheered and dispersed.

Ma Long was about to help Sui Shiyi walk, but Sui Shiyi grabbed his hand and shook his head, "It's not time yet, lie down!"

Suishi had been lying upright among the rotting bones.

Ma Long was stunned and also lay down.

His whole body was wrapped in the strong rotten stench around him.

After lying down for less than half a stick of incense, there was a cry from the barracks: "Run away! The farmers have escaped!"

Just like a stone thrown into the lake, the sound of dogs barking, horses hooves, and roaring sounded from far to near.

Footsteps also sounded in the tunnel, and more than a dozen soldiers came out, stepping on corpses and walking past Ma Long.

"They're in front!"

The barking of dogs became louder and louder, and the horses also neighed.

Then the desperate screams of the farmers tore through the night.

Malone simply closed his eyes.

But Sui Shiyi beside him had his eyes open, looking at the night sky full of stars, muttering something unknown in his mouth.

At dawn, everything returned to silence.

"Let's go, let's go..." Sui Shiyi's voice was trembling.

But it's not the excitement of escaping.

Ma Long protected him and continued to escape into the darkness.

Sui Shiyi seemed to be quite familiar with this place. He pointed to the path in the dense forest and repeatedly escaped the pursuit of cavalry and hunting dogs.

But his voice became weaker and weaker.

After walking for who knows how many hours, the sun finally rose, dispelling the coldness and death from their bodies.

A small river, an abandoned field, and a collapsed house that had been covered in cobwebs and fallen leaves for countless years.

Sui Shiyi threw himself on the field like crazy, grabbed a pile of soil mixed with stones and stuffed it into his mouth.

Malone was stunned.

This is not a good piece of land. Less than a dozen steps away from the collapsed house is the wall of a large manor.

The laughter of men and women could be heard faintly within the wall.

The joys and sorrows in the world are not the same.

After a while, Sui Shiyi's crazy behavior gradually subsided, and he crawled towards the back of the collapsed house, where there were five small earthen mounds that were raised high and low.

He crawled into the dirt bag, a strange look of tranquility appeared on his face.

"Young man, I beg you one thing, bury me here..."

"You've already come out, why are you still seeking death?" Great sadness enveloped Ma Long's heart.

"I should have died a long time ago... I can't live anymore. It's enough to die with them, enough..." As she spoke, Sui Shiyi slowly closed her eyes, her face becoming calmer and calmer. , as if asleep...
