The sleepy little village wakes up again as it welcomes overnight guests.
With the help of the elders in the village, two rooms were quickly vacated for them to live in. At the same time, the women brought in enough bedding and prepared hot porridge.
"Your movements are so fast." Huya Soldiers exclaimed in surprise, "Everything looks like they have been trained."
The old man laughed and said, "I have indeed been trained. It was taught by officials in the city." He looked at him again and said, "It is said that it was first introduced in Dou County."
Huya Bing smiled: "Yes, we are all in Dou County, and you have actually learned it. The spread is really far."
The old man said: "Not far away, not far away, we are all under the rule of Mrs. Chu. Everyone is the same."
The barking dogs were wagging their tails and darting through the crowd. The sleepy children were lying on the shoulders of the adults and trying to look at the strangers with their eyes open. The young girls and their wives were cleaning up and talking about these soldiers in low voices. Soldiers
They seemed to be very shy, with their heads lowered and holding bowls in their hands while they ate and drank.
"Sorry for bothering the folks." Hu Yabing finished his porridge and thanked him gratefully, "Everyone, take a rest. I have been busy with the autumn harvest recently, so I have to get up early tomorrow."
The old man stopped being polite: "There won't be much harvest this year. The government said that Mrs. Chu will distribute relief grains. We can't just wait for food and drink. We should prepare more dry firewood and withered grass to survive the winter. All soldiers should also have a good rest."
.”
Huya Soldier smiled and nodded: "Okay, we have to go on a journey tomorrow, so we should have a good rest."
The old man and the villagers quickly dispersed, and the soldiers lay down to rest neatly. The bright lights gradually went out, and the village fell into a deep sleep again.
The fragrance lingers all night.
The Tiger Tooth Soldier was snoring cutely one moment, but the next moment he opened his eyes and woke up. He stood up looking at the misty blue light in front of his eyes.
As he stood up, everyone else also woke up and quickly put on their armor.
The Huya soldiers were only wearing black robes, moving around in the yard, punching slowly.
"Are you all asleep?" he asked.
The soldiers standing in front of them responded yes.
The tiger fang soldier raised his hands above his head, stretched his body, and his voice became longer: "Then let's work."
The soldiers responded and walked out. The old man from last night was walking in: "You are all up? It's so early."
Seeing the Huya Soldier's signal, the other soldiers passed him without speaking.
"Yes." Huya Bing looked at the old man and said with a smile, "Dad, why do you get up so early too?"
The old man said: "I feel young when I am old. I am going to the county town today..."
Huya Bing asked out of curiosity: "What are you doing in the county town, my father-in-law?" He smiled again, "Could it be to report the news that we were passing by and staying overnight?"
The old man said: "Of course, don't you know? Everyone who passes by must be reported to the county government regularly..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the voice of the Tiger Tooth Soldier ringing in his ears.
"Then let me speak for you, husband."
The old man smiled: "How is that possible? I..."
His mouth was covered, and at the same time, with a pop, a fist appeared in front of his chest and passed through from behind...
The pain came so suddenly and intensely that the old man seemed not to feel the pain. He lowered his head and looked at his chest, where a bloody hand was holding a bloody heart, which was still beating.
What's going on?
The old man raised his head and saw curved tiger teeth in his sight. The tiger teeth were no longer white, but covered with blood.
"As for you, just have a good rest. You don't have to run back and forth."
The tiger fang soldier said with a smile, and took another bite of the heart he took out.
Monsters and ghosts... The old man's last thought flashed across his mind and he fell to the ground. Short and sharp screams sounded from behind him. The screams flashed by, and there were more strange sounds, like a hammer hitting walnuts, like a hammer hitting a walnut.
The wooden mallet cuts into the rice cake, like a tree being cut down, like a fish being slapped with the back of a knife...
The Tiger Tooth Soldier dropped his heart and continued to slowly wave his hands and feet, stepping on the blood on the ground and stretching his body in the misty blue light.
When daylight dawned, the strange noises disappeared in the village. The village in the early morning fell into a deep sleep like at night, and soldiers covered in blood and smelling of fish gathered in front of the Huya soldiers.
"Is the matter done?" Huya Soldier put away his arms and legs and stood up straight.
Everyone responded in unison.
"Sir, the movements of Mrs. Chu have been detected." A soldier pointed in one direction.
The Tiger Tooth Soldier looked over there, spread his hands, and the soldiers on both sides put their armor on him.
"Let's go see the gods."
.......
.......
The sun shines brightly on the earth, birds fly in the sky, hares jump on the road, and the trees sway in the wind, but the whole village is silent.
A shadow lengthened and shortened, as if it was the only living thing here.
The bamboo hat was raised, the wooden staff was on the ground, and the straw sandals stopped in front of a yellow dog lying in the middle of the road. The young monk looked at the twisted dog with a calm and compassionate face.
Monk Mu chanted the Buddha's name to the dog, bent down and tried his best to place it flat, and then he stepped over. But when he turned around the entrance of the village, his footsteps stopped again. What he saw in front of him was not the human world, but hell.
It wasn't just dogs that fell on this street, there were also chickens, ducks, and people.
Men, women, old and young, died in different ways, lying in various directions, with twisted postures, missing arms and legs, and separated heads and heads.
No matter how high you raise your feet, you can't get over the blood and corpses on the ground, and no matter how high you raise your hands, you can't straighten the twisted body and pick up the broken body and limbs.
The wooden monk did not bend down anymore. He held one hand in front of him and held the wooden stick tightly with the other hand, chanting Buddhist scriptures, stepping into the blood with his straw sandals, and walking among the dead bodies.
Under the scorching sun, his voice became louder and louder, and his expression became more and more sad and angry.
.......
.......
At the same time, in front of a mountain road, a guard shook hands with his weapon and looked ahead. His body tensed, his face looked frightened, and he began to retreat...
As a Zhenwu Army member with the word "Guang" on his chest, he has never been afraid since he entered the battlefield, nor has he retreated in the face of battle.
Now there is no fighting in the front, only dead bodies lying on the ground, their flesh and blood are blurred, and their faces cannot be seen clearly. You can recognize the comrades who accompany you day and night without looking at their faces, just by looking at their uniforms.
The guard did not step forward to check on his comrades or cry in grief. He turned around and ran back.
Run quickly, quickly warn about this, he took out a flame from his waist, but at this moment there was a sharp whistling sound behind him, and an arrow penetrated his back...
The running speed and the power of the flying arrow caused the kneeling guard to slide forward. His face rubbed against the ground, and the blood at the corner of his mouth dyed his body red. He looked at a person emerging from the valley behind him out of the corner of his eye.
A ghostly figure...
There are more and more figures, they have various weapons in their hands, they are jumping on the corpses, and they are in front of them in the blink of an eye...
The guard used his last strength and let go of his hand to light up the fireworks at the last moment. At the same time, the knife cut down and the guard's head rolled out.
"It's still a step too late." The man holding the knife said regretfully, looking up at the fireworks exploding in the air.
Another man next to him smiled and also took out a flame, lit it and exploded it in the air.
"It's okay." He said, "We have some too, let's see who has more."
Everyone looked into the sky and could faintly see flames rising and falling in all directions.
.......
.......
Li Minglou stood outside the tent and looked up at the sky. Baobao held up the black umbrella to avoid blocking her sight. He also looked at the sky.
"It's like the Chinese New Year," Li Minglou said.
The bag is clutching the black umbrella tightly. This is not because the sentinels have gone crazy. This is because other people's sentries have gone crazy...
Soldiers and horses galloped through the camp and brought a guard covered in blood. The guard used his last breath to say: "The roads in all directions are cut off, they are coming to kill" and then fainted.
There was an anxious noise from the gathered generals.
These are definitely not Ma Jiang's remnants of troops or Ande Zhong's Zhejiang soldiers. These two groups of rebels are both under their control.
So where did the rebels who suddenly surrounded them come from? How could it happen so silently and suddenly?
"That's what war is like. Either you hit me or I hit you. If I can hit you, you can hit me." Li Minglou's eyes exposed outside the white gauze were calm and calm, "Then let's fight."
