"Oh, my beautiful lady. You, in the village. What are these people doing?" A foreigner with yellow hair and blue eyes, carrying a brown travel bag and dressed in old clothes, staggered to the side of the woman who was leaning against the wall and watching the crowd disappear in the distance.
The woman turned around and was instantly stunned by the foreigner.
He stammered,"Ah! Oh my god! How could there be a beautiful woman like the Virgin Mary in this remote place?”
"And you are?" The young woman looked at this Outsider in astonishment.
She did not expect that such a person would come to her village one day, nor did she expect that the two of them would be involved in this terrible incident that was difficult to turn back.
The foreign man saw the woman's frightened expression and explained," Hello, I'm a traveler. She came from England and was attracted by the beautiful and mysterious China, so she traveled everywhere.”
"Yes! Are you from another city?"
"You can say that! May I ask why everyone in your village is going in that direction?”The foreigner looked at the people walking away and asked in confusion.
"Ah! I can't tell you that. Because I don't know. Do you need food?”The kind-hearted Li Qing looked at this person's sallow and emaciated appearance and didn't seem to be in good spirits. However, she kept looking at him and didn't know what to say. He could only ask softly.
As he spoke, Li Qing took out a black cornbread from his back. He looked at it and hesitated for a moment, but still handed it over.
It was the first time the foreigner had seen such a kind person here. He smiled happily and was too embarrassed to refuse, so he reached out and took it.
However, the foreigner seemed to have thought of something and took off his backpack. After opening it, he took out an army green can and handed it to Li Qing.
"What is this?" Li Qing asked.
"This is meat. Ah! It's just like the bacon you usually make.”
"Oh right, my name is Laken. "Lyken Francis," the foreigner added.
Li Qing looked at the smiling Laken and had some doubts at first. However, when he heard that it was meat, his eyes lit up as he stared at the thing in Lycan's hand. Laiken also saw him and smiled. He took out another one from his backpack and handed it to Li Qing.
Li Qing pursed her lips and happily looked at the two cans in her hands. Lyken continued," I had already finished my supplies. I met a caravan about ten kilometers away from the village and exchanged them with extra film.”
Li Qing raised his head and looked at Laiken, secretly delighted. His eyes turned to the spot where the crowd had disappeared. His originally smiling eyes became melancholic. She whispered,"Brother Song ~"
When Laiken saw this, he looked pitiful and could not help but ask,"Miss, I heard that there was a disaster here. Is it true?"”
"Yes! Yes, many of our people have already left.”
"Oh! Is that so, Miss? I'm also a reporter for a British newspaper. Can I take a photo for you? The people of the world were very concerned about the disaster in Henan.”While Li Qing was still confused, Laken took out his camera. Taking advantage of Li Qing's curious look at the camera, he raised it in front of him and snapped a picture. However, Li Qing was shocked and hurriedly used his hand to block in front of him.
"What is this?" Li Qingyi asked.
"Miss, this is a camera! When the photos are developed, I'll definitely give you one.”As he spoke, Laken adjusted his camera and walked forward. He waved at Li Qing and left with a smile. He walked in the direction of the crowd.
In the 1940s, the Central Plains suffered a severe drought. The area within a hundred miles was barren, and the crops in the fields were almost unharvested.
On the road in the Wilderness that was swept by dust and sand, a caravan of dozens of people stopped behind a few dilapidated yellow walls. This group of people wore dark blue martial master clothes, and their cuffs and pants were all tied with bandages. The leader of the group had a solemn expression. His eyes were like torches, and under his yellow skin, there was a hint of black. His face was rough and wild. At first glance, he was a man who clearly distinguished love and hate and was decisive in killing. He looked through the yellow sand at the village a few miles away. At the same time, he glanced at another caravan not far from the village. There were only a dozen of them. They were wearing black martial master uniforms with their cuffs and pants tied. However, they were driving five to six large carts that were filled with food. There was a flag floating on the mast of the carriage, with the word 'Lin' written in black on a red background. Seeing that they were slowly approaching the village, the rough man slowly said," You guys overestimate yourselves. Do you think you can suppress this matter?”The man's contemptuous tone was as if he did not care about the group of people. After saying that, he turned around and returned to his car.
Before he could sit down, a young man in dark blue clothes quickly ran over from afar. He hurriedly ran to the front of the rough man and knelt on one knee with cupped fists. Moreover, the Lu family had already gathered in the ancestral hall. It seems that they didn't take your words seriously.”
"Alright, you can go back first, scout. You won't be of much use here for what happens next.”The rough man said indifferently.
"Yes, sir!" The man who was kneeling on one knee replied and walked behind the group. From time to time, he would turn back to look at this group of people. It was as if they were parting for life and death as he left reluctantly.
After the scout left, the rough man suddenly became gentle. He looked at the dozens of people around him with deep affection. His lips moved and he was about to speak when he heard someone walk out from beside him and say meaningfully," Lord Marquis, this is the end. That day, when we wrote that letter, weren't we prepared for the worst?”
This person was wearing a long robe and dressed like a scholar. He was holding an Eight Trigrams in his left hand and a horsetail whisk in his right hand. He stroked his green beard and said.
"That's right! Even though he was prepared for the worst. However, we can't just throw away our lives for nothing.”When the rough man saw the long robe in front of him, he looked at the village in the distance and said fiercely.
"Lord Marquis, this time, the Lin family is also participating. There might be some changes.”The long-robed man said seriously when he saw how determined this person was.
"The Lin family? If not for the evil done by the older generation. Since ancient times, there have not been so many people in our residence who have died for no reason. Those were all fresh lives, and behind them were happy families.”The more the rough man spoke, the angrier he became until he cursed.
"Lord Marquis, even though you say this, I'm afraid you'll still be able to do it. However, the Lin family had done their best. Placing the few clansmen in this dangerous place, they had also suffered for hundreds of years. It seemed that this time, it was time to end it.”
"Chang Ning, promise me one thing.”The rough man suddenly changed his tone and pleaded.
"Ping Luo, why are you suddenly so serious? I don't think it's anything good!" Chang Ning saw that this person had suddenly become gentle, and for a moment, he actually became suspicious. He looked at the person in front of him in confusion, but he did not see anything strange.
"I, Li Pingluo, have killed many evil spirits since I started learning martial arts. However, in the end, he could not escape the fate of becoming an Evil. Chang Ning, you should know that after becoming an Evil, the first thing you want to hurt is your loved ones.”Li Pingluo saw that Chang Ning was patiently listening, so he said affectionately.
"Brother Yuanding, you also know that my wife has been pregnant for several months and is about to give birth. I couldn't bear for her to see me become an Evil, and I couldn't bear to become an Evil and harm living beings.”
"So, I beg Chang Ning. The moment I become an evil, use your horsetail whisk to kill me on the spot.”After saying this, the manor master actually knelt down on one knee and cupped his fists at Chang Ning.
At this moment, a handsome man walked over from the side. He held an umbrella made of steel in his hand and his entire body was silver-gray. He also knelt down on one knee and said,"Please, Master Ye, kill us together at that time."”Before these two voices could finish speaking, the remaining dozens of people in the surroundings responded and moved. They knelt down on one knee in unison, cupped their fists, and shouted in unison," I beg Master Ye, I hope that you and I can travel together and fulfill the wishes of our generation."”
Seeing this situation, Ye Chang Ning couldn't bear to refuse. His originally calm eyes slowly rippled. With red eyes, he pulled the two people beside him up and said passionately,"Everyone, you are unafraid of death. You are really my role model." There's no point in talking too much. I'll do my best to fulfill your wishes."
Li Pingluo smiled in relief after Ye Chang Ning agreed, as if he had made arrangements for his funeral. He also looked at the dozens of people around him with relief. They knew that death was an inevitable outcome.
The 'Lin' character that was originally dancing in the wind was now slowly hanging down on the mast. The leader of the group, a lean man, called for everyone to stop when he saw this. The group of people placed some food and drinks under a withered tree and sat there to slowly swallow.
The lean man held a piece of dry food in his hand and sat on a rock under a withered tree. He was facing the village in the distance. Seeing that there was no one in the village in the distance, he looked back and gestured for a skinny young man to come forward. He whispered a few words in his ear and saw the skinny young man running quickly in the direction of the village. Along the way, he tried his best to lower his body as if he did not want to be discovered by others.
The convoy had just stopped when a group of people slowly walked over from another village. The middle-aged man in the lead asked when he saw that the cart was filled with food.
"Sigh! This man, how much is the grain sold for?"
The lean man saw that someone had come to buy grain and called his men to negotiate. Then, he shook his head and smiled. He looked at the village from before.
"You still came here to sell food? All the people in our village have left. I bought some rations, and I'm going to escape. Don't tell me you still want to sell it to the people in that village? Don't even think about it. That village! Let me tell you, I'm so poor! You don't know..." The few of them spoke one after another. After the lean man heard this, he only shook his head. He looked at the village in the distance and could not bear to say,"Little Jiu, Little Jiu." Jiu 'er. Jiu 'er! Brother is here to pick you up."
