Watching the two brothers and sisters eating the mutton happily, although it had no taste, they ate it with gusto. Lin Ye stood aside with a smile and watched the two of them quietly, as if he loved the one who wanted to break through this floor to reach the next level.
I forgot about the first level of cultivation.
In fact, it's not that Lin Ye has forgotten that the content of each level of his cultivation has never been clear. Lin Ye doesn't know how to get through this level, so he has to take it one step at a time. What he is doing now
Who can say that what we are doing is not cultivation?
Maybe it was because he had been hungry for too long, but the two brothers and sisters finished eating a large bowl of mutton in a short time. Seeing the two brothers and sisters chirping, Lin Ye smiled even harder, as if the brothers and sisters were happy.
Just like your own happiness.
"Dong dong dong!"
Suddenly, Lin Ye heard a rapid knock on the door and couldn't help but be shocked. Who on earth would be knocking on the door of a house where only two brothers and sisters were left this late at night?
"You two quickly hide behind the door!"
Hearing this, Tiedan took Hei Niu out of bed and quickly hid behind the door.
"Dong dong dong!"
There was another hurried knock on the door. Lin Ye heard the sound and was about to open the door, but unexpectedly, the wooden door was slammed open. At this time, Lin Ye saw a dozen sallow-looking adults standing in front of him.
At the door, as soon as they saw the door being kicked open, they all rushed in.
"Meat, tell me, there is meat to eat here, right?"
The leader, desperately holding Lin Ye's collar with his hands, shook it vigorously. Lin Ye stood still and let it shake, but never moved. With Lin Ye's strength, those who were about to die from hunger could not stand it.
How can one defeat him?
Originally, Lin Ye wanted to leave, but when he saw children and women following him, Lin Ye suddenly softened his heart. He took out a large piece of mutton from the package, handed it over, and said, "Don't leave too far, lest you get hurt."
If someone else discovers it, you won't be able to eat it."
I don’t know if that person could listen to Lin Ye’s words. He snatched the meat from Lin Ye’s hand and threw it out. I don’t know if they would give the meat to women and children. In short, Lin Ye had a guilty conscience.
Just go.
"Come out, we can't stay here any longer. Take me to the city lord."
Lin Ye thought for a while and decided that the matter could not continue like this, so he called out the brother and sister and asked them to take him to see the city lord.
Hearing this, Tiedan walked out first, while Hei Niu was wearing clothes at the side. It was very cold at night, biting to the bone, but the brother and sister Mingxin didn't have any thick clothes to keep out the cold, so they could only put on a few layers of shabby clothes.
Lin Ye saw it in his eyes and felt heartbroken.
When he went out, the cold wind was blowing. It was only less than seven o'clock in the evening. Lin Ye originally wanted to wait until the next morning to visit the city lord and find a solution to the problem, but if he delayed it any longer, there would be something wrong.
More people died.
Calling Zhufeng, Lin Ye held Hei Niu in front. After he sat on it, he pulled Tiedan up. Then he shook the reins and ran along the road to the city lord's mansion. He thought to himself: This city lord can't leave.
Like Sabi, he is a fool. Otherwise, it would be better not to find him.
On the road, before walking very far, Lin Ye found a group of people gathered together. When he got closer, he discovered that the blood stains on the ground were red and black under the dark night. Looking carefully, it turned out that it was the person who broke in before.
Those people from Tiedan's family gave them a large piece of meat at first, but now they realize that instead of helping them, the meat has become a scourge. These people fought just to grab this piece of meat.
Now he is obviously hungry and thirsty and only has half his life left, but he still spares no effort to fight here.
Shaking his head, Lin Ye had no way to deal with this matter, so he had no choice but to continue running forward. If he wanted to save, he had to save from the root. Just saving some people was not enough.
Under Tie Dan's guidance, Lin Ye quickly ran towards the city lord's palace along the shortest path.
Finally, after a few minutes, we arrived. It wasn't that Tiedan's house was too far away from the city lord's palace, but that the roads were winding and the alleys were circuitous, which delayed a lot of time.
Riding on the back of Zhufeng, Lin Ye looked up and saw a palace-like building. However, the style of the building has changed with the local disaster. Now, it has lost its past majesty.
Looking like a sick person, you can tell at a glance how serious the crisis of this city is!
Before Lin Ye came to Shacheng, Tiedan and Hei Niu would never dare to enter the city. They rarely passed by the City Lord's Mansion and just avoided it in awe. Now they followed Lin Ye and walked towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
The mood of the two brothers and sisters was somewhat excited, but more of a vague anxiety.
When he arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, out of courtesy, Lin Ye got off his horse, put Zhufeng away, and then briefly explained to the Tiedan brothers and sisters, then led them towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Although due to the dry climate and severe water shortage, there are no guards at the gate of Shacheng, but the city lord's palace is still heavily guarded. No matter how dangerous the outside world is, the city lord's palace appears peaceful.
"Stop, who dares to break into the city lord's mansion at night?"
Lin Ye was stunned by the sudden scolding, and did not feel any fear. In comparison, if he let out his breath, these people would probably wet their pants. Since the Dark Claws, before,
Lin Ye thought that being able to concentrate the breath on his fingertips would be the limit. But later he secretly figured out a method, and now he is able to spread his breath freely.
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, looking at the two guards who were wrapped up tightly, with dry lips and teeth. They seemed to be extremely thirsty, but they still insisted on standing guard here. It was really commendable that Lin Ye did not want to embarrass these brave men.
The soldier pointed at the two brothers and sisters behind him, and said in a gentle manner: "Don't worry, I don't mean any harm. If I wanted to do anything wrong, I wouldn't have brought the two children here. I hope the eldest brother will go in and report, and say: There is a sword."
Sir, when I traveled here, I heard that Shacheng was in danger, so I came to ask about the reason and see if I could help."
When the guard heard that he came because of the crisis in Shacheng, his attitude immediately changed a lot. He took back his stern tone and turned to a gentle attitude, saying: "Little brother, you are not a local? It is already very late now.
, I’m afraid the Lord of the City has already rested!”
"Well, I'm not a local." Lin Ye simply answered the previous question, but after hearing the next sentence, Lin Ye couldn't help but frown, and said sternly: "Shacheng is like this. As a city,
Lord, how could you sleep so peacefully? Aren’t you afraid that your heart will be alienated and your conscience will be disturbed?”
Hearing Lin Ye's harsh words, the guard sighed and explained: "Little brother, you don't know something. The city lord is not what you think. He is worried about the drought in Shacheng. In the city lord's mansion
There is still a water source, but the water is scarce. Every day, the city lord will fetch water and personally look after the refugees along the street. However, these days will not be long ago. The water source in the city lord's palace is about to dry up. The ministers in the city persuade the city lord to let him
Stop giving water to the people, but the city lord is stubborn and says, 'I can't solve the drought, so why should I drink water in the city?'"
After saying this, the guard's face showed a look of reverence. Lin Ye really doubted whether this guy liked the city lord? Yes, he didn't know whether the city lord was a man or a woman, but at least he was sure that the city lord was indeed a man.
Good city lord.
"Go in and let me know, but you are really resting. I will come back tomorrow."
Seeing Lin Ye's persistence, the guard shook his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go take a look..."
After saying that, the guard turned around and left, while Lin Ye waited peacefully outside the door.
"Hey, is your city lord a boy or a girl?" Lin Ye was bored, but still curious about the gender of the city lord, so he asked the two brothers and sisters.
"Male!"
"Female!"
.......
Lin Ye was confused for a moment. Why did the two brothers and sisters sing the opposite tune? Tiedan said he was a boy, and Black Girl said he was a girl. This made Lin Ye dumbfounded and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I still
Identify them for yourself, two brats."
With that said, Lin Ye once again turned his attention to the city lord's mansion, while the brother and sister were still arguing about whether the city lord was a boy or a girl. Children are like this, how happy they are when they are young. However,
Thinking about what happened to them again, Lin Ye didn't dare to continue to look forward to it.
After a while, the guard finally came back. Seeing this, Lin Ye hurriedly stepped forward and asked eagerly: "Brother, how are you?"
Unexpectedly, the guard waved his hand helplessly and said: "Little brother, please go back and come back tomorrow."
"Why?" Lin Ye refused to give up and continued to ask.
"I passed the words to the Lord's personal maid, and she told me that the Lord had rested. After hearing this, I could only bring you a message."
"Oh, thank you."
Lin Ye cupped his hands a little disappointed. It seemed that the city lord was really busy during the day. He rested so early at night and had a personal maid. The city lord's life was really carefree. Lin Ye thought mischievously, and was about to
Turning around to leave, he heard a shout.
"Young hero, please stay!"
"Oh?" Lin Ye was slightly frightened. He turned around and turned back again. His eyes were searching for the shadow of the speaker in the darkness. Because he could tell that the voice was a woman's, and the voice was extremely sweet, Lin Ye
I guess it's not the city lord's personal maid who came to look for me.
After thinking about it, Lin Ye stood still and waited for the other party to arrive.
"My subordinates pay their respects to the Lord of the City!"
Hearing the woman's voice, several guards in front of the city lord's mansion immediately knelt down and worshiped. Lin Ye was secretly shocked when he heard this, because he only saw a figure in the dark. Could it be that this woman was Sha Cheng?
