Chapter 147
Chapter 147
Yuelai Inn lobby.
The candle flame is dim.
The tables and chairs were overturned, and the dishes and chopsticks were spilled on the floor.
Li Hongyuan, wearing an apron, sat on the steps of the stairs, smoking dry cigarettes one after another.
The palm on his knee trembled slightly, proving that the man’s heart was not as calm as it seemed.
“What’s going on, what’s going on?”
The hostess Si Wen panicked and paced back and forth in the lobby.
“Daddy, the shouting of killing is getting closer and closer, you should think of a way!”
“How about we run away too?!”
Li Hongyuan put down the dry cigarette stick, and his voice was slightly deformed: “Escape? Where to escape? Conjure a pair of wings and fly out of Dragon City? Standing
at the door of the inn, Li Ting, who had a firewood knife in one hand and a kitchen knife in the other, turned around, gritted his teeth and said, “Dad, fight with them!” ”
Fight? What to spell? A firewood knife that can only chop firewood and a kitchen knife that can only kill chickens and fish?
Li Hongyuan pondered for a short while and said, “Son, go upstairs to the room and take down our savings over the years.”
“Alas~” The
proprietress sighed lightly and asked, “How much to take?”
Li Hongyuan: “All!”
Li Tingqing’s thin body suddenly trembled, as if remembering something, and turned and ran to the backyard.
“Ting’er, don’t run around, come back!”
——
The backyard of Yuelai Inn.
On the roof of the small courtyard.
Cang Xue analyzed: “In one to three years of Fuling, the Great Wei Dynasty was almost in a national drought, especially in the seven northern states, the rivers dried up, the grass and trees decayed, the land was thousands of miles, and hunger was everywhere. ”
There is no rooster crowing in a thousand miles, and the people are left behind.”
“Mo said that in eleven years, even if it is twenty-one or thirty-one, it will be difficult for the Wei Kingdom to restore its vitality to the period of Emperor Wenjing.”
“Now the eastern border of the Wei Kingdom has left the country, and the Qing State in the south has broken through Jialing Pass and occupied more than a dozen cities large and small.”
“The imperial court can’t provide too many pawns, food and grass for Dragon City.”
“That’s why that Wang Ye made this decision, he would rather bear the infamy of Wangu and order the slaughter of the city.”
“The people of Dragon City are innocent.”
“The reason why that Wang Ye ordered the slaughter of the city was because there was no food and grass.”
“The reason why the imperial court did not allocate grain and grass was because the treasury was empty, because of the great drought that lasted for three years and could almost be called a disaster.”
“So, is it God’s fault~”
The girl who vainly tried to trace the origin frowned.
Xueniang yawned and said speechlessly: “I said girl, why do you always think about these things?”
“Don’t you carry other people’s coffins to their own homes and cry?”
“You should care about when your two knives are delivered, what tactics the 100,000 pawns of Revenge Dragon City should formulate, and how to carry out the rest of your life after revenge.”
“You should care about yourself, your master, your Sister Feng, Uncle Pig Emperor, and me.”
“Alas~”
The girl sighed: “Sister Xue, Mr. Qiqi, a small-town school, taught me, and a gentleman is cautious when he sees people’s evils.
Xueniang was stunned, “What do you mean?” The
girl explained: “When a gentleman sees that people are in distress and misfortune, he should not gloat, but have compassion. Xue
Niang: “Your master also taught you to be a ghost of Yin Cao and take care of the affairs of the world.”
“Why don’t you listen to your master?”
The girl said helplessly: “Sister Xue, I don’t want to either, but I can’t control my cranky thoughts.” ”
Hurried footsteps came from far and near.
The girl and the snow lady turned their heads condescendingly and looked away.
But I saw the teenager hurriedly running into the backyard.
Run to the small courtyard built and bang on the courtyard door.
”
Knock knock~” “Sister Wang Zhi, open the door, I’m Li Ting.”
“Don’t knock, we’re here.”
Snow Niang reminded loudly.
The young man took two steps back, raised his eyes, and couldn’t help but lose his mind.
Sister Wang Zhi, who was plain white and dancing with green silk, suddenly wanted to ride the wind.
“Hey, young man from the Li family, don’t be in a daze, what’s the matter?”
Snow Niang asked.
The young man came back to his senses and hurriedly said, “Sister Wang Zhi, the group of pawns in the big camp outside the city don’t know what happened, they are killing people everywhere.”
“My father is going to use the money he has accumulated over the years to sell his life to protect the inn.”
“Don’t run around.”
Xueniang: “Young man of the Li family, my sister and I know.”
Looking at the young man who turned around and ran away quickly, Xueniang said softly: “It’s a kind child of Wendun.”
Cang Xue: “Sister Xue, have you forgotten that your master taught you that it is difficult to draw cats and tigers, and you know people without knowing their hearts?” Snow
Maiden: “…”
–
when the boy just ran back to the lobby.
It happened that a group of about a dozen pawns broke into the inn.
A steel knife dripping blood, a disgusting smell of blood.
The bold men who used to come to the inn to drink and eat meat are now covered in blood and staring at the beast-like eyes, which frightened the young man’s hands holding wood knives and kitchen knives and could not stop trembling.
“Are you… Xiao Chengjing, Master Xiao!
Li Hongyuan looked at the man in armor at the leader and said in surprise: “Master Xiao, do you remember, I once invited you to dinner.” ”
Oh, is it~”
The man’s eyes narrowed slightly, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
Li Hongyuan was cold and excited, and hurriedly handed over a large bag of broken silver.
“Master Xiao, this… This is the money we have for our family of three.
“Please show mercy to your subordinates, spare our family, and the inn.”
Xiao Chengjing’s blood-stained palm took the heavy money bag.
After weighing it slightly, the sound of broken silver colliding is particularly pleasant, and there is no doped copper plate.
“Boss Li, you are a good person.”
“Wait for Ming’er, I’ll bring my brothers to take care of your business.”
Xiao Chengjing smiled meaningfully, “Brothers, the next family.” ”
Master Xiao, a few adults, go slowly.”
Watching the backs of the soldiers disappear into the night, Li Hongyuan and his wife, as well as Li Ting, all breathed a sigh of relief.
Unfortunately, before the family of three could calm their beating hearts, another team of centaurs broke in.
Li Hongyuan’s face changed, and he sighed in his heart.
Immediately, he felt a money bag from his sleeve again.
However, it is much smaller than the one given to Xiao Chengjing.
“A few adults, small care, not respect.”
“This is our family’s money, and I ask the adults to laugh.”
The leader grabbed the money bag and smiled wickedly.
“Silver, we laughed.”
“To apologize, Treasurer Li, the brothers will give you couple a pain.”
“Do it!”
Soon, Li Hongyuan and his wife were tied up by five flowers.
Shi Chang swept over his pawns and asked, “This way to kill, which other knife is unsheathed?” Several
pawns brushed their eyes in unison.
Shi Chang frowned, “Zhang Qingrong, what, are you going to get out of the mud and not clean?”
The man named Zhang Qingrong shook his head, “No, it’s long.”
“There is no best!”
Shi Changma Jindao sat down on the bench, and while dividing the money, he ordered: “These two people belong to you.”
Zhang Qingrong came to Li Hongyuan and his wife.
The couple on their knees were already frightened and dumbfounded.
There are no desperate screams and screams before death, and there is no heart-wrenching bridge of mutual narration and last words.
Only uncontrolled trembling.
Gong ~
steel knife out of the sheath.
Zhang Qingrong first stood beside the boss lady Si Wen.
Aim for the neck position.
A knife fell.
Bang.
Heads fall to the ground.
The blood column that splattered from the broken neck hit the beam directly, splashing into a curtain of blood.
Li Hongyuan simply fainted.
Zhang Qingrong stepped on the man’s chest.
Hands up and down.
“The big head was taken by Lord Xiao.”
“There are twenty-eight two or seven dollars of silver in this purse.”
“Among them, I want to give Lord Xiao ten taels, and our brothers will divide the rest…”
Grabbed everyone’s attention.
The pawns looked into the corner of the lobby.
In the darkness, the boy’s thin body trembled like a sieve.
“There is actually a fish that slipped through the net~”
was another bang.
Wood knives and kitchen knives are on the ground.
Take a hard bite and bite your tongue to bleed.
After severe pain barely suppressed fear.
The teenager turned and ran towards the backyard with difficulty.
‘Hurry, hurry! ‘
‘Let Sister Wang Zhi run for her life!” ’
……
PS: There are no military families in Dragon City, why is there a short comment from Taoist friends at the end of the previous chapter that is unreasonable.
Chapter 2 Around two o’clock in the morning, I couldn’t change this routine, and I felt uncomfortable.
