In the southwest corner of Heyu City, the young people left with nearly a hundred people holding torches, and darkness and silence returned to the shack.
The girl slowly squatted down, buried her head in her arms, then shook her head, stood up and looked at the two men in front of the shack, only to see the first of the two, a young man with mud on his body and face looking away.
In the direction of the center of Heyu City, his brows were furrowed, as if he was worried, while another ugly-looking man in rough cloth lowered his head and peeked at her. After hesitating for a moment, he asked aloud, "You...you don't have any...
Got a place to stay?”
The young man ignored her and didn't even look at her.
When the young man didn't reply, the man in rough cloth nodded and whispered, "When we saw that there was no one here, we found a shed to stay temporarily. I will go in later to pack our things and return the shed."
you."
The girl waved her hands and said, "It doesn't matter. Since we don't have a place to live, you can stay here first." She looked around, "The city is quite chaotic now. There are a lot of empty places here. I can go anywhere. Anyway, we are here."
It’s all the same if you provide money.”
The rough man looked at the girl and asked, "The token you gave to that person just now...is it a beloved thing?"
The girl shook her head, and then nodded again. She lowered her head and spoke in a very small voice, as if she was just telling herself, "That was what dad left when he came back last time. They all said he was dead."
, that token became the only thing he left me...now..."
The rough-clothed man glanced at Luochuan, who still seemed to be deep in thought, and said to the girl, "
I'll go get it back for you later."
The girl waved her hands quickly, "No, no, no, Yang Si is the leader here, with more than a hundred people under his command. You saw it just now. If you don't come back at all, and if you offend him, you won't be able to continue living here.
, He is a very cruel person, very, very cruel." Seeing the expressionless expression on the rough man's face, she raised her head and said with a bright smile, "And he has wanted my token for a long time. There was Uncle Luo before.
Protecting me, he doesn’t dare to rob. There is a lot of chaos in the city now. People are rushing into other people’s houses like crazy, grabbing things, and even killing people. Sooner or later, I have to give him what he wants. Now I can use this token to pay for it.
It’s a very good deal for two people.”
The man in coarse cloth lowered his head, and Luo Chuan, who had been looking at the distant and thoughtful Luo Chuan, suddenly asked, "Is your father a member of the Mountain Shaking Army?"
The girl looked at Luo Chuan's muddy face with wide eyes, and nodded heavily, "Yeah!"
Luo Chuan asked, "Looking at the old condition of your clothes, you should have been here only a few months. A few months ago, the Shashan Army fought under Yicheng, and your father died in that battle."
?”
The corners of the girl's mouth involuntarily pressed down, and then she nodded slightly.
Luo Chuan asked again, "Where is your mother?"
The girl looked at the dark ground in front of her and said in a very low voice, "My mother is dead too..."
Luo Chuan's eyes fell on the girl's face for the second time, he paused and said, "It has been a few months since your father died in the battle, and the people from the Shanshan Army did not take your father's belongings and pension.
Bring it back to you?"
The girl shook her head, this time
The second time he spoke louder, "They said that my father was a deserter and was beheaded by the general in front of the battle. Nothing was left. Not long after, my mother also died of illness. They moved the things in the house and I had no place.
Stay here, just come here..."
Luo Chuan's eyes were a little heavy, and he looked into the distance again, "Your father may not be dead yet."
"Really?!" The girl's eyes immediately lit up, but then she became timid again. She held her hands in front of her chest and stared at Luo Chuan's eyes without blinking. There was a clear distinction between black and white in her eyes.
, with a complicated expression, "Really...?"
Luochuan nodded and said to Tushan, who was dressed in coarse cloth behind him, "Tushan, go clean up in the shack, we are leaving."
Tushan responded with a yes, turned around and returned to the shack, and came out again after a while.
The girl probably felt that the two people in front of her were no longer so strange. She walked up to Luo Chuan in a few steps, pulled his sleeves and looked up anxiously and asked, "Brother, you want to leave? The city gates are all sealed now. How can you escape to Luo Chuan?"
Everywhere in the city is dangerous, but there are not many people here, so it is safer. You should stay here first, and even if you want to leave, wait until dawn, otherwise you will be in trouble if you run into those lunatics outside!"
"There won't be any lunatics where I'm going," Luo Chuan looked at the sky above the central area of Heyu City, and his eyes couldn't help but condense slightly. There, there was a blue sky-reaching sword light and a magma-like red and black light.
They collided together, blooming with dazzling light. Under the light, a huge mushroom cloud slowly rose, with a cold feeling like doomsday, "Get down!!"
Luochuan pressed the girl in front of him
He fell to the ground, stretched out his hand, and was about to pull a broken wooden board from a distance to cover the two of them, when he saw a mountain of earth suddenly flying towards the two of them, and there was a flash of khaki light around them, and the three of them
They had fallen into a pit five or six feet deep, and the surrounding soil was rolling like water, sealing the top of their heads.
“Boom, boom…!!”
The huge sound was accompanied by the sound of broken boards, earth and rocks flying, and it swept past with terrifying power!
The earth shook, making everyone's hearts tremble.
It took a long time for the world to become quiet again.
A kind of unusual silence, not even the chirping of insects or birds.
Tu Shan waved his hand, and the starry sky reappeared above the heads of the three of them. Luo Chuan was the first to stand up, and saw that the originally dense shack area was no longer alive. It was a doomsday scene, in disarray, and a mushroom cloud rose in the distance.
The lights of various colors gathered again and criss-crossed.
"Time is running out..." Luochuan murmured to himself, then turned to the girl who slowly climbed up from the pit with a confused and horrified face, "Man Keer, what I am saying now
You have to keep it in mind."
The girl named Man Keer opened her mouth, and finally turned her dull gaze from the devastated doomsday scene to Luo Chuan's face. Seeing the seriousness on the latter's face, she closed her mouth and nodded in confusion.
"I will ask Tushan to find some food for you later. It won't be a lot, but it will be enough for you to go out of the city and eat north to Weiming City." Luo Chuan looked at Tushan and waved his hand, and Tushan had disappeared.
On the spot, he stared at the girl's somewhat shocked eyes and said quickly, "Note
Listen! After arriving at Weiming City, you find the officers and soldiers and find a man named Yao Sanlang. When you see Yao Sanlang himself, tell him that he is a young Wangchuan swordsman and ask him to take good care of you. Now you say it again.
I listen."
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then basically repeated what Luo Chuan said completely.
"Very good, remember, later tonight, the gates of Heyu City should be opened. As for which gate will be opened, I can't say. You should be smarter and follow the flow of people," Luo Chuan looked into the distance.
, there was some anxiety in his tone, and he was very fast, "We are going to Weiming City for nearly a hundred miles. The journey is long and must be difficult. You have to be careful along the way and don't trust anyone. Maybe...that's it.
.”
When Luo Chuan finished speaking, Tu Shan had already returned with a bundle and hung the bundle around the girl's neck. Luo Chuan took one last look at the girl and only said "take care" before pulling Tu Shan toward the center of the city.
Walk away.
Before I had gone too far, I heard the crying voice of the girl behind me shouting, "Brother... thank you!"
Luochuan did not look back, but Tushan couldn't help but look back.
Then he saw a long-browed Taoist wearing a robe, holding a white Taoist boy, running towards him quickly!
