It didn't take long before Fang Yang and Tieniu were completely shocked.
It wasn't until he was sure that these murderous demons were gone that Fang Yang carefully dragged Wang Tieniu to a large pile of rocks on the roadside.
Fang Yang built a very simple small thatched shed in the gap between two big rocks, using the broken shed of a donkey cart and adding wild grass.
"Ouch... Ouch..." Tieniu kept moaning in pain because of the pain.
Listening to Tieniu's painful groans and feeling the harsh wind and cold rain, Fang Yang's face became increasingly cold.
"This is what the book says about the jungle and the survival of the fittest!"
"Whatever benevolence, justice and morality are bullshit in front of these demons!"
After being soaked in the rain for most of the night, Fang Yang suddenly had an epiphany in his heart.
He kowtowed in the direction of Tulin Village where his home was located.
"Father, mother, the child must stand out!"
"Children, you must continue to grow stronger so that you can live a good life!"
"I don't want to be bullied anymore, I want to become stronger step by step, become stronger..."
"I want to protect my parents, I want to protect my brother and sister, I don't want to be bullied anymore, no matter how hard or tired I am, I will persist...become stronger...become stronger..."
A feeling of exhaustion came over him, and Fang Yang gradually fell asleep.
It rained heavily for most of the night last night, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a sunny day the next day.
When Fang Yang looked at the headless remains that had been soaked in rain all night, he felt sick in his heart.
What worries him even more is that although he hid in a hut under the rocks to avoid the rain yesterday, Tieniu still developed a high fever.
Fang Yang stepped through the mud and bloody water and dug out the luggage brought by the two ruffians from the damaged donkey cart.
Fang Yang found some sesame cakes soaked by the heavy rain, but the silver had long been confiscated by the cavalry.
“Fortunately, there is food!”
Although it was just a cake that was already a little dirty, Fang Yang felt happy in his heart.
After a night of cold and hunger, he only felt weak in his limbs.
Fang Yang fed the relatively clean pancake to Tieniu and swallowed the muddy pancake in big mouthfuls.
"Brother Yang, I can't eat, why don't you eat." Tieniu said weakly.
"Tieniu, if you want to survive, you must eat. Only by eating can you gain strength." Fang Yang advised.
As he spoke, Fang Yang carefully tore the pancake into pieces and fed it bit by bit.
In this way, Fang Yang and Tieniu gradually regained some strength after relying on this thing to satisfy their hunger.
However, Tieniu still had a fever and was very depressed.
"No, Tieniu will die if this continues! He can only be saved in the city! There is only a medical center in the city."
Although Fang Yang was anxious, he still maintained a calmness that was inconsistent with his age.
"It's a hundred miles to go back, and there are bandits on the road, but it's only twenty miles to Dafeng City!"
The smart Fang Yang quickly made a decision.
I saw Fang Yang unloading a wooden board from the broken donkey cart and letting Tieniu lie on the wooden board.
Then the reins that originally held the donkey were removed from the wreckage of the donkey cart and tied to the wooden board.
"Hey~~let's go~~~" Fang Yang put the reins on his shoulders, then pulled the wooden board on which the iron ox lay and walked towards Dafeng City.
"You can only find help in Dafeng City! You must go!"
Although there was a burning pain in his shoulder, Fang Yang gritted his teeth and moved forward step by step.
Although it is in the wilderness, there is a post road leading directly to Dafeng City.
Occasionally they can see some carriages, so it is not difficult to walk along the way.
Coupled with the heavy rain last night, the road was muddy and slippery, which reduced a lot of resistance.
Therefore, Fang Yang could easily pull the wooden board on which the iron ox lay.
The sun was blazing at noon, so the two of them found a place to rest in the shade of a tree.
After eating the only sesame seed cakes, Fang Yang simply dug some wild vegetables and grass roots to satisfy his hunger.
Fortunately, they are all children of the mountains, so they can recognize that the bark of wild vegetables and trees is edible.
For more than twenty miles, Fang Yang took Tieniu for most of the day.
Before evening that day, two thin figures appeared outside the east gate of Dafeng City.
Fengcheng is a small city among the eight major cities in Fanzhou.
But this is a great place for mountain people like Fang Yang, so they call it Dafeng City.
Fang Yang remembered that his family only took him here when he was 7 or 8 years old.
That year the family had a good harvest, and the Fang family's life was relatively easy.
At that time, Fang Yang's grandfather was still alive, and the family happily set out to the city early in the morning to sell food.
Fang Yang still remembers that his grandfather bought him a new dress.
The family also bought a small bowl of Yangchun noodles. Although each person only tasted one bite, the family all praised it as a delicacy in the city.
These memories are undoubtedly beautiful for Fang Yang.
The feeling of returning to Dafeng City today made Fang Yang, who was only 11 years old, feel as if he had eaten a can of rancid condiments. He felt indescribably uncomfortable and unpleasant.
There are more than 80,000 people living in Dafeng City, and all towns within a radius of four to five hundred miles outside the city are under its jurisdiction.
But most places outside the towns are deep mountains, old ravines, and dangerous peaks, so bandits are rampant.
However, despite the disasters this year, it seems that the number of outsiders visiting Dafeng City has not decreased.
Carriages entered and exited the city gate one after another, including wealthy merchants carrying swords and swords, as well as long lines of caravans.
There were even a few crowds outside the city gate, surrounding monkey dancers, ditty singers, and entertainers whose chests were broken.
Nowadays, the sixteen kingdoms in the north are at war, and the Western Shu Kingdom, where Dafeng City is located, has become a paradise because it is located in the dangerous mountains and rivers in the southwest.
This was also one of the reasons why the Fang family fled here in the first place.
It's just that there was a flood a few days ago, so there were many victims like Fang Yang who were covered in dirt in the crowd.
Many of these victims had injuries on their bodies, and they obviously had a narrow escape before escaping outside Dafeng City.
However, the soldiers guarding the city kicked and beat the victims and did not allow them to enter the city.
Some victims who tried to force their way into the city were severely beaten or even directly hacked to death by the defenders.
Therefore, a large number of victims only dared to gather outside the city gate to beg for food.
"Tieniu, we're here, we're finally here!" Fang Yang felt excited.
After a day of hard work, Fang Yang finally arrived outside the gate of Dafeng City.
But before Fang Yang could take a closer look at Dafeng City, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves.
"Drive! Get the fuck out of the way, you blind bastards!"
A large carriage drawn by two tall black horses rushed towards the city gate.
Several victims at the gate of the city were unable to dodge and were scraped by carriages and fell down. Their heads were instantly bruised and bloody.
Through the nanmu car window, a wealthy businessman in his fifties was sitting in the car.
Next to the wealthy businessman is a fat boy of twelve or thirteen years old.
In front of the carriage was a horseman in his thirties, with a fierce look, holding an iron rope whip in his hand, and loudly scolded Fang Yang and the two who were blocking the road.
"Get out of the way, you two bastards!"
The carriage ran very fast and rushed directly towards Fang Yang and the others.
