Li Xiang originally thought that entering Luoyang City would not be easy. He might need to go through all kinds of notifications and procedures. He did not expect that the guards at the city gate would not have the mood to check him at all. They only set the time for him to enter and exit. The current Luoyang city gate was only open for two hours a day. He came just in time for the opening time, so he could enter smoothly. Li Xiang looked at Mingyue who was tied to the horse's back and felt a pain in his heart. This child was too pitiful. It was all for the sake of the commoners and soldiers that he had to torture his weak body into this state. Therefore, even without General Liu's instructions, Li Xiang would definitely do his best to protect Princess Ming Yue. She deserved to be treated like this.
Auntie Hong also got off her horse and followed Li Xiang. The Imperial City did not allow horses to gallop, so she and Li Xiang got off their horses as soon as they entered. They only let Mingyue lie on the horse's back and feed her water and soft pancakes from time to time.
I'm also strong. Even if my consciousness is blurry, as long as I feel water on my lips, I'll definitely open my mouth. I really want to live!
I didn't notice the scene in Luoyang City. I was already exhausted and could only lie on the horse's back weakly.
Aunt Hong was guiding Li Xiang to Imperial Physician Li's residence. Aunt Hong really did not want the current Emperor to know Ming Yue's whereabouts. Otherwise, even if he was cured, it would be like a sheep entering a tiger's den. Aunt Hong had seen the current Emperor's thoughts. If Sima Yue was not here, she really did not know what Ming Yue would be like now. Therefore, she absolutely could not let the Emperor know that Ming Yue had returned to Luoyang.
Auntie Hong and Li Xiang discussed and decided to go to Imperial Physician Li's residence first, so they sped up their journey. The scene she saw along the way had indeed caused Aunt Hong to panic. There were people in the city who were smashing and robbing other people's things from time to time. There were private fights everywhere. Even when patrolling soldiers passed by, they did not care. They even saw many people who looked like parents exchanging children with other parents…
Auntie Hong looked at these people's strange behavior in confusion. Li Xiang was very clear that this was exchanging children for food. His own children could not bear to eat, so they ate other people's children. Just how serious was the famine in Luoyang?？!!!
Auntie Hong accidentally stepped on a corpse and was shocked. This corpse should have died not long ago because it had not emitted a foul smell yet. However, if one looked carefully at its buttocks, or any part of its flesh that had been cut off, Auntie Hong wanted to vomit on the spot. She held back her urge to cover her mouth, and her face was very pale...
Li Xiang's brows were tightly knitted together because more than ten people were blocking their way. Their eyes were all red as they slowly approached Li Xiang and the others...
Li Xiang pulled out his sword and stood in front of Auntie Hong in a flash. Auntie Hong held the reins of the horse beside her tightly. I had already fallen asleep and didn't know anything.
Li Xiang pointed his sword at them and shouted,""How dare you! Who the f * ck dares to take another step closer!"
These people seemed to be shocked by Li Xiang's aura. They didn't move forward for a while. They just looked at each other, but their eyes on the horses became more and more passionate.
Li Xiang was familiar with these eyes. They were extremely hungry, and judging from the way they looked at people, they must have eaten a lot of human flesh…Since they were afraid of the sword in his hand, should he abandon his horse and leave this place as soon as possible? Just as Li Xiang was about to give up on the horse,
The horse also sensed danger. It kept stomping its hooves and blowing air out of its nostrils. The horse's restlessness and restlessness made Aunt Hong very painful. She could not hold the horse's reins at all. Li Xiang saw that it was not good and turned around to comfort the horse. What if Mingyue fell down? However, this turn also gave these starving people an opportunity to rush forward.
Auntie Hong screamed in fear. She grabbed onto Ming Yue tightly, hoping to carry her down. However, she was afraid that Ming Yue would fall off the horse, so she had already tied Ming Yue to the horse. In this panic, how could she get Ming Yue down immediately? Li Xiang was also swinging his sword to kill these lunatics while controlling the horse. He could not use his martial arts at all. Suddenly, a few more groups of the same people appeared out of nowhere and began to surround Li Xiang and the others.
Li Xiang cut off the rope that bound Mingyue with his sword. If I didn't untie the rope, Mingyue would be tortured to death by the horse. Auntie Hong saw my body tilt and was about to fall, but she was already blocked by these lunatics. The horse felt pain and kicked and kicked at those who wanted to hurt it. I still fell off the horse. The scene was very chaotic.
I was in great pain from the fall. Fortunately, I wasn't too high off the ground. I tried my best to open my eyes. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw these people pouncing on the horses like madmen. Some of them even bit the horses. Dozens of people pushed the horses down and ate them raw. The horses 'eyes were filled with tears...
Li Xiang killed another two lunatics, but he was entangled by even more people. Auntie Hong's eyes were fixed on You Mingyue on the ground. She screamed as she crawled toward the place where I fell.
Many people couldn't get the horse meat, so they started to look in my direction. In the eyes of these people who had eaten human flesh and were about to starve to death, I was also delicious food...
Li Xiang tried very hard to get close to me, but not only was he entangled, but his body was also bitten a few times. The pain was unbearable.
Suddenly, an intense pain spread throughout my entire body. One of them seemed to be afraid that I would escape, so he stepped on my arm. I felt as if my arm had been broken, and then my leg had been stepped on. Auntie Hong saw my miserable scream, and I didn't know where she got her strength from. She pushed the crowd around me away and pounced on the person who stepped on me. She hugged me in her arms and protected me. I was already unconscious because of the intense pain...
Li Xiang finally reached Auntie Hong's side and slowly retreated with her. The people who were killed by Li Xiang were quickly pounced on by others to eat their flesh. This scene was as disgusting and terrifying as the zombies in modern TV dramas. Where was humanity? What was the difference between them and the living dead?？？If he wasn't a walking corpse, then what was he?!？？？
Luoyang had been short of food for a long time. When Sima Yue left, he took away a large amount of surplus food. The Hu Krupp continued to plunder. The transportation to Luoyang from all over the world had long been cut off. It was difficult to transport food from outside. The scarce food in the city had been hoarded by the rich and powerful. The poverty and hunger of the common people were getting worse by the day. They had already reached the point where they were killing each other to eat. This was true, not fabricated.
Li Xiang held his sword and protected me and Auntie Hong as we escaped from this place. For a moment, I couldn't tell which direction was which. I could only hide in a dilapidated house and check on my injuries.
My left hand and left leg were broken, and blood was flowing out. Auntie Hong's tears never stopped, and her hands and body were covered in my blood. Li Xiang quickly tore off his clothes to help me bandage my wounds. He also bandaged his own wounds and fixed my broken bones. However, this way, I became a burden and could no longer move.
My high fever was getting worse. If this continued, my brain might be burnt. Aunt Hong looked at my appearance and was at a loss for what to do. Li Xiang looked at Ming Yue and knew that he couldn't drag it out any longer. He gritted his teeth and asked Aunt Hong to tell him about Imperial Physician Li's residence. Although the current situation in Luoyang was so terrible, perhaps Imperial Physician Li's residence was already in a bad situation, but at this point, he still had to give it a try.
The sky gradually darkened. After Li Xiang finished the pancake that Auntie Hong handed over, he slowly waited for the sky to completely darken.
Li Xiang left his dagger to Auntie Hong. After Auntie Hong silently put it away, Li Xiang began to observe the situation at the door of the dilapidated house. After confirming that there were no strangers, Li Xiang went out to find Imperial Physician Li.
Li residence
Imperial Physician Li's residence had long been emptied out. There was no living person in the messy room. Li Xiang had a feeling of hope being shattered. He searched around the residence but didn't find anything particularly useful. He only found some medicines, but he didn't know if they were useful. He took them all away. When Li Xiang left the Li residence, a sound made him stop.
Li Xiang slowly approached the place where the sound came from, but there was no sound. When he turned around to leave, he suddenly felt a hand covering his mouth. Then, he felt a pain in his stomach and his body slowly went limp. He didn't even make a sound when he died...
A black-clothed man quickly stabbed the dead Li Xiang a few times with his sword. He searched his body but found nothing. He spat out a mouthful of phlegm. He had ambushed here to inquire about the news of Luoyang City so that he could report it to Zhang Bin at any time. He did not want anyone to hear his movements. Naturally, he would not let you go back alive. God knows what you saw.
This person was a spy sent by Zhang Bin. He was very skilled. Li Xiang was a man who had been in the military for a lifetime. However, he was still killed by a sword. Moreover, Li Xiang did not notice any signs. It could be seen how terrifying this person was...
hovel
Aunt Hong didn't know that Li Xiang was already dead. She was still eagerly hoping that Li Xiang could find Imperial Physician Li and bring him back to treat Mingyue. How could Mingyue's small body withstand the bumps along the way? His arms and legs were broken by someone else. If this continued, he would really lose this child. Fortunately, he did not let Little Green come. Otherwise, he really did not know what would happen. When did Luoyang become so terrifying?
I slowly woke up. The pain in my legs and feet made me unable to sleep peacefully. I no longer had the vitality I had before. My big eyes had also become dry. My illness was really serious. I gently opened my mouth and called out Auntie Hong's name.
I couldn't see anything in the pitch-black shabby house. When Auntie Hong heard my call, she immediately looked at me carefully with the help of the moonlight that seeped through the roof of the shabby house.
"Mother…am I going to die soon?”
Auntie Hong burst into tears when she heard this. The pain and worry she had been holding back could no longer be suppressed, and tears flowed out of her eyes.
" Mother, don't cry. Mingyue hurts…"
"Good Ming Yue, your Uncle Li Xiang has already gone to look for Imperial Physician Li. He will definitely bring Imperial Physician Li back to treat you. Mother will always be by your side, so don't speak nonsense."
Just as I was about to say something to comfort Aunty Hong, I suddenly heard the footsteps of many people. It seemed like they were about to barge in from outside…
