The Master of Hundred Skeletons paused. At this moment, he didn't know whether he should say something. He didn't know whether Lord Shuangyue knew the reincarnation of his enemy in this life. This person has been reincarnated as a human being, but this time is particularly special...
…Forget it, don’t mention it now
Okay, this has nothing to do with what was going to be discussed. The air was quiet for a while, and the two of them stopped talking. Shuangyue Jun didn't know if it was still daylight in this world. It was almost dusk when she came. She just lowered her eyes and sat quietly,
When your mouth is dry, drink another cup of tea.
"By the way," Master Bai Skeleton suddenly said, "You haven't said yet, that girl named Xue Miyin..."
Shuangyue Jun's hand that had just picked up the cup stopped in mid-air, but it didn't look like she had forgotten to say it. She didn't say anything, put the cup that had been hovering for a while on the table again, and took a deep breath.
"That child... no, she is no longer a child. I actually forgot such an important thing."
She put her hands together, closed her eyes, and rubbed her face, as if to relieve fatigue. But how could this heavy layer of fatigue be easily dispelled? She held her breath until her hands slowly moved to her chin, holding it
She lowered her head and relaxed slowly. However, she did not feel much relieved.
She said that she found the child before going to Death Shadow Pavilion - or even on the day she received the complaint.
It was already late at night, and Lord Kuchugetsu had just left. The valley returned to silence, leaving only the traces of the fight. She also used the power of the Tengu to extinguish the demonic fire she had caused. This is her only shikigami now.
After all, she had let them go in front of Lord Shigetsuki a long time ago. When she met Lord Kuchugetsu again this time, he turned into the appearance of a green girl, which made Lord Shigetsuki extremely angry. It seemed that he wanted to
It was as if the other party did this to deliberately stimulate her fighting spirit.
"You don't deserve her look!"
"Speaking as if you are familiar with each other."
This conversation lingered in her mind for a long time. Now that Lord Kotsutsuki was gone, she let out a deep sigh. What he said was right. She knew nothing about the real Red Mysterious Blue Girl. After all, she had already been fragrant.
Xiao Yu died. She had heard about the goddess from other seniors. She was the first to learn of her existence, and she was not yet the Six Paths Impermanence.
She originally had a name.
She had stopped thinking about this for a long time.
She didn't care who her surname was since she changed her identity from the beginning. But there was one thing: the two friends she met occasionally would make the same decision - even if they were in different places, there was no need to discuss it.
That is, no matter Lin Tianshi or Bai Skeleton Master, no matter Lin Shanhai or Shi Wuqi, like today, when they mention each other in the conversation... they never call each other's name.
This is a very special kind of tenderness.
She has always, always wanted to be a gentle person. It does not mean the kind of personality that is gentle and kind to others, but a very special quality. She doesn't know if she can do it, at least it must meet her own standards. At least.
, she is not like the previous Shuangyue Lord who allowed the Demon-Sealing Blade to spread in the world, but carefully protects it by her side.
"You are really a kind person. But, who can you protect like this?"
This is what the new Yingyue Lord said to her in her dream... This new Yingyue Lord is very beautiful, and her beauty changes in many ways. The other impermanent people know her origin, but it is difficult to judge her position.
.Although she is not as annoying as the last kid, she sometimes says some unpleasant things, like the sentence just now.
She really couldn't protect anyone, and in the end, she would be hurt by the person she protected. She originally thought that in terms of her long life, she would treat the suffering people like Jiyue Lord - even though his situation was somewhat special,
But it is not difficult to take care of someone a little bit. Speaking of which, it is the girl named Xue Miyin.
Yes, deep valley, in the deep valley. The black businessman who bought the resentment did all the things that lacked virtue. The escorts his caravan transported this time were particularly special - they were a group of children. The harvest of those years
It’s not good, it’s very bad... Disasters happen frequently.
The territory is unstable, and there is no satisfactory thing everywhere inside and outside heaven. At that time, the Six Paths of Impermanence were also extremely busy. The tragic situation of starving people everywhere was numb, and Lord Shuangyue had been used to facing corpses earlier.
Facing death.
This time it was different. Those children did not starve to death... nor did they just fall to death.
There were three carriages in total, each of which could only be pulled by four or five horses. The carriages were not simple carriages, but a huge cage covered with rags, with more than a dozen children crammed into each cage.
They were all sallow and thin, and could not stand firmly. No one cleaned them, and they ate, drank, and pooped in big cages. You could smell the odor coming from inside without opening the rags.
The stench makes no one want to get close. They tell outsiders that the food here is all "game" - diseased and dead game. If it is healthy, alive, and hungry people will immediately ignore the unpleasant smell.
The breath even felt sweet. Moreover, the children no longer had the strength to speak. Even if anyone dared to resist, they were beaten black and blue.
Therefore, no one will check it.
The turf has almost been removed by people, and the horses are not full of food. The dozen or so horses are all as skinny as firewood. Anyway, these children are not heavy, and they can only pull them. They just need a few people to push them uphill.
They used all kinds of tricks to deceive and kidnap the children. Almost all of them are children of poor people. Here
At such a time of material scarcity, even if someone lost their child, they would not have the energy to look for it. After all, it is difficult to protect themselves. These evil people understood this and even beat the cage and told them like a joke, "Your
Your parents don't want you anymore. They are very happy because you have one less person and less food to eat.
At first, the children cried loudly until their voices became hoarse and they no longer had any strength. The youngest among these children was only three or four years old. If they were particularly energetic and could not stop crying no matter how hard they cried, they would be executed in public and dragged to death.
Let's go and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. The oldest girl is seventeen years old because of inconvenience in her legs and feet.
Abducted. Although she was thin, she was beautiful. She was taken away by the gangsters and never came back. Maybe she was dead. There were three cars, one with boys, one with girls, and the other was very quiet. Some children said
I saw it myself, the cage was filled with scarlet meat... They would all be hung there in the end.
Because they are transported as "food" goods.
In such chaotic times, especially in the poorest areas, this kind of thing can no longer be common. No one wants to be starved to death, nor does he want to be starved to death - by Guanyin. This is an era of price but no market, even if
Rich people with a little money had nowhere to buy food. Therefore, human flesh became the largest and endless resource. In the beginning, it was corpses.
Then the fetus, and then the woman and child. As long as the party is considered weak in comparison, it may become the exploited at any time. This kind of thing has not happened in decades, but
The word "repeat the same mistakes" has never been a decoration. Human flesh was sold to those high-ranking officials, and sometimes, the meat dealers even exchanged favors from monsters.
Shuangyue-kun knew about these things, and she couldn't interfere - because the adult wouldn't let them.
She is no longer the young and energetic ordinary person she was a few hundred years ago. Naturally, like her colleagues, she is well versed in the truth. They all understand that there are tens of thousands of victims, and they simply cannot control them. In ancient times, the enemy was captured in battles.
There are countless cases where Fang surrendered his troops and were killed on the spot. The reason is simple: they cannot be fed, they cannot be raised, and they cannot be saved. It is not inhumane, but it is a helpless act.
Xue Miyin is one of many "foods". She later told Lord Shuangyue about the caravan.
In the car, she met a friend. Although she was only six years old, she was very optimistic. She only had a nickname, Miaomiao. Along the way, she kept comforting everyone and telling interesting things to divert attention. She was a group of people.
It was a tiny light, but some people always found it dazzling. Some extremely pessimistic girls sneered at her words and kept mocking her. But overall, she still brought a less painful time to her companions.
At first, Miyin was one of the pessimists. She was too thin and could not compete with the stronger children in the face of pitiful food. Her body was deteriorating and she was just waiting to die. One day in the middle of the night, Miaomiao suddenly screamed.
He woke her up and gave her a ball of dirty steamed buns, which were as hard as a rock. But Miyin knew that this was what happened when the food was handed out.
"The sisters over there took care of me and left some for me. I see you haven't eaten for a long time, so I'll share some with you."
She grabbed the steamed bun, but her attitude was extremely bad: "What time has it been? Stop playing with this nonsense. Divide me? I'll starve you to death!"
"We won't die, we want to live. Only my mother is left in the family. If we get lost, my mother will be sad, so I want to live for my mother."
"Didn't you listen to the man with the knife? Your parents don't want you anymore. They will only be happy if you are dead."
Miyin felt that she was really a fool. Silly Miaomiao looked at her chewing viciously with her face raised, and asked her:
"We got lost and got caught. How did you get caught?"
As the saying goes, eating people is soft-spoken, not to mention that this child does not mean any harm. After two bites of steamed buns, Miyin felt a little more at ease and her anger was not so bad. She honestly confessed:
"I really envy you. My parents lied to me, took me to eat meat, and ended up selling me to human traffickers. I was taken away crying, and when I finally saw my father busy counting money, my mother only said to the traffickers, give me a knife.
When I made a fuss, I was knocked unconscious and I woke up in the car."
Until the end, they neither apologized nor said goodbye.
"Oh..." The young Miaomiao nodded, not sure if she understood.
The two children just hugged their knees and leaned against the cage together in the silent night.
