MTL - Super Dimensional Martial Immortal-Chapter 386 swallow

  Chapter 386 Whale Swallow

  The north wind mixed with goose feathers swept across the land, and the huge Luzhou was covered with a layer of pure white overnight.

  The beautiful scene wrapped in silver caused cheers in [Liuyin Fengguo], the chattering children wrapped up in rice dumplings wanted to make snowmen outside, and the adults gathered in the warm house to gossip.

  However, while [Liuyin Fengguo] was happy and peaceful, the counties and counties bordering Weili County were a piece of purgatory on earth.

   "Mom...I'm hungry..."

  Amidst the sobbing sound of Qiruoyousi, a woman carefully hugged the skinny and hungry child in her arms, tears dripping down one by one.

  She could feel that her son's small body was getting colder and colder, and his consciousness was already blurred. If he didn't eat anymore, he might swallow his last breath at any time.

  Bitting her trembling lips tightly, the woman made up her mind, wiped away the tears from her face, and sent her son to her bedridden husband.

   "Head of the family, take care of your son, I'll go to the Vegetable Market."

  When the pale-faced husband heard this, a smear of blood flushed like a flashback, and he grabbed the woman's hand.

   "No, don't go..."

  The withered fingers were particularly strong at this time, and the husband looked at the woman's face, his eyes full of pleading.

"do not go."

   "There is nothing left at home, why not sell me, you and your son can live."

   "No! Don't go! Please..."

  The husband, who had never shown weakness, was now in tears. The woman forcibly refused to look into his eyes, and pushed his hands away.

   "It is better for a concubine to go to the vegetable market if a couple dies of starvation year after year."

   "If you get three thousand money, you can go back to your husband, and you can travel one mile with one ride."

  ...

   "Women are born to be good cooks, and they can make their husbands live forever."

   "Several people are full of burials, but fortunately, the crows and kites don't peck them early." (Note 1)

  Singing ancient sad poems, the woman turned her head away, her sad and trembling voice could no longer be restrained, she gritted her teeth and dared not speak any more, she pushed open the door and left.

   "Don't go! Don't go!"

The desperate wailing was blocked by the closed door, and the stern wind blew on her body. In just a few seconds, the tears on her cheeks formed ice crystals. smile.

  No matter how cold the north wind is, it cannot be as cold as this cruel world...

  Wrapping the single clothes tightly around her body, the woman walked out of the silent alley carefully, her vigilant eyes scanning every dark corner all the time.

  Things have come to this day, those hungry and crazy people in the city can do anything, and their relatives are still waiting for her to exchange for food to save their lives!

   Walking timidly to the avenue, the cold and dead street has long lost its former prosperity, only occasionally a few passers-by are in a hurry, and they look at each other with vigilant eyes.

   Lowering her cheeks, the woman hugged her body tightly and quickened her pace. Suddenly, she heard a huge roar coming from the front, and even the ground under her feet trembled faintly, as if some huge heavy object had slammed on the ground.

  Her heart skipped a beat, she didn't know what happened, but when she thought of her husband and children who were angry at home, her weakness and fear disappeared instantly, and her cowardly pupils gradually became firm and brave.

   Muster up the courage to move on, but fortunately nothing strange happened on the next journey.

   Until the woman came to the hidden [vegetable market], she ran into a group of sturdy soldiers in armor and holding spears.

   Seeing these wolves and tigers, the woman trembled and quickly hid in the alley next to her.

  The rumbling soldiers hurried away one after another, and the woman clearly felt that many of them had spotted her, but the murderous and brutal gazes were often closed at the touch of a button, as if they didn't regard her as a threat.

   After a while, the broad avenue regained its calm. The woman hiding in the alley was in a state of confusion, not knowing whether to move on.

   "Mom...I'm hungry..."

  At this moment, the child's weak murmur sounded in his ears like an auditory hallucination. The woman's panicked eyes froze for a moment, and she gritted her teeth and walked out of the alley.

  She has no choice, the relatives at home are waiting for her life-saving food!

  Moving forward cautiously, for some reason, the woman always felt that there were countless pairs of eyes looking back and forth in places she could not see. The sight of thorns on her back made her feel creepy.

   She was relieved until she saw the majestic guard at the gate of [Vai Renshi] from a distance.

   This is a market co-managed by the major families and San Jinlian, and no one dares to disobey the rules here.

  So, under the oppression of the strange eyes of the two guards at the door, the woman timidly walked into [Vegetable Market], but did not notice that the equipment of these guards was exactly the same as the soldiers she saw just now.

  As soon as she entered [Vegetable Market], she smelled a fishy and sweet smell. Realizing what it was, the woman turned pale, then bit her trembling lips tightly, and walked towards a stall.

   "The vegetable collector? I have dozens of catties of meat, and only three thousand dollars..."

  Seeing the human arms, human legs, and even a **** head with its eyeballs gouged out hanging from the booth, the woman suppressed her fear and grief, and asked in a low voice.

  Thinking that she will soon be put on the chopping board to be dismembered and become the blood food for others to pick and choose, the woman's heart was overwhelmed by great sorrow, so that she did not notice the distorted, stiff and pale expression of the boss,

   Gulu~

  The boss swallowed, and subconsciously glanced at a distance, not even daring to speak.

   Even after asking a few times, she didn't get an answer. The woman left disappointed, and asked questions from booth to booth.

   "The vegetable collector? I have dozens of catties of meat, and only three thousand dollars..."

   "The vegetable collector? I have dozens of catties of meat, and only three thousand dollars..."

  ………

  The huge market was dead silent, only the women's mournful and humble inquiries, but she didn't notice anything unusual when she came to [Vegetable Market] for the first time, and thought that this was the atmosphere here.

   "There will be no more vegetable collectors here."

Soft whispers suddenly sounded behind her, and the woman was startled. Turning around, she saw a boy in white clothes not far away looking down at her with pitiful eyes. His noble and holy temperament was like the bright moon in the sky, which was incompatible with the dark and **** environment around him. .

"you…"

   Realizing what the young man said, the woman's complexion changed drastically, and she couldn't help trembling.

   "No more food collectors? What should I do then?"

  Mumbling to herself in a panic, the woman suddenly felt blessed, and looked at the boy in white with a crazy look.

   Subconsciously approached, but because of the boy's awe-inspiring and invisible temperament, the woman only dared to kneel in front of him a few meters away.

   "Sir, please do me a favor and accept me. I have dozens of catties of meat, and only three thousand... no, only two thousand!"

  Hearing her humble and desperate pleading, Zhao Yinshun's eyes became softer.

   "I don't need your meat, you have to live well in the future, get up."

  Holding up his hand to help, an irresistible force pulled the woman up from the ground.

  crack~

   Snapped his fingers lightly, a guard hurried to Zhao Yinshun's side and cupped his fists respectfully.

   "Your Majesty."

   "Give her some food and money..."

  The voice suddenly paused, looked at the thin clothes on the woman's body, and then listened to the faint shouts of killing in the city, Zhao Yinshun pondered for a few seconds, and changed his words.

   "Find her some cotton padded clothes, and you will **** her home with money and food. If there is anything that needs help, take good care of it later."

   "Follow the order!"

  Nodding resolutely, Konoe turned his head to look at the dull woman beside him, trying to squeeze out a kind and gentle smile.

   "Sister, wait a moment, I'll be right over."

   Resolutely brought a cotton-padded coat and put it on the woman without any explanation. The guard took dozens of catties of polished rice and white noodles, and some pork and eggs for food, and then called the woman to leave.

   "Sister, where do you live? I'll take you back."

  Looking dully at the warm padded coat on her body, then at the kind smile on the face of Zhuang Master Soldier, and the heavy food in his hand, the woman finally recovered from the shock.

   "This...these don't cost money?"

   "No money, it's a relief from [Zhen Guogong] to you."

   "I... I... Could it be a dream?"

   He pinched his thigh hard, the severe pain stimulated the nerves, and the expression on the woman's face was particularly distorted, as if she was crying or laughing.

   "Relax, [Duke Zhen] is here to save you, we can all live a good life in the future, and there is no need to..."

  The words of relief came to an abrupt end, and Jin Wei glanced at the booths around him, his eyes swept over the **** human remains, hatred and pity emerged in his eyes at the same time.

   "Zhen... Zhen Guogong?"

  Hearing the woman's doubts, Konoe immediately calmed down and nodded gently.

   "The one who talked to you just now is Lord [Zhen Guogong]."

   Trembling all over, looking at the snow-white back who had already gone away, the woman's lips trembled, and she hesitated to speak. After a long time, she knelt silently on the ground and kowtowed several times to her back.

   "Let's go, I'll take you back, and we will all live well in the future."

  Helping the woman up from the ground, Jin Wei smiled and said, "By the way, if you have any difficulties at home, just tell me."

  Hearing this, the woman remembered that there was still someone waiting for her at home, and hurried home with her guard.

Along the way, faint shouts of killing echoed over the city, but under the suppression of the wolf-like army, there was no major riot in the huge city. Occasionally, some thugs who took advantage of the fire were quickly beheaded by the warriors accompanying the army. In just a few hours, a small city completely changed its owner.

  Back to the alley at home, the woman pushed open the door with excitement, and saw her husband crawling on the ground dragging his weak body, as if he wanted to go out to find her.

   "The head of the house!"

   Hastily helped her husband up from the ground and put him on the bed to lie down. Then she looked at her son's thin face, and the woman had a happy smile for the rest of her life after a catastrophe.

   "Sister, where are these grains and meat?"

   Jinwei followed into the room, looking around curiously.

  But when the man saw the thing in his hand and the sturdy and burly body, he instantly understood something, and his expression changed drastically.

   Without knowing where the strength came from, the pale-faced man suddenly stood up from the bed and threw the woman behind him.

   "My lord, please let her go, I will go with you, I have a lot of meat!"

   "The head of the house..."

  Hearing this, the woman's eyes turned red, she suppressed her emotion, and hugged the man's shoulders.

   "He didn't come to arrest me to be a vegetable man. 【Duke Zhen Guo】has entered the city, we are saved!"

"ah?"

  The man looked back at his wife blankly, his confused head still unable to understand her words.

   "This is [Zhen Guogong]'s general, he is here to save us, not to arrest me as a vegetable!"

   "Ahem, sister, I'm just a small soldier, I can't be a general..."

   Konoe explained dumbfoundingly, but the couple didn't understand this. After the woman's explanation, the man finally understood the situation, his eyes gradually became brighter, and even a hint of rosiness appeared on his pale cheeks.

   "Ahem, I see that my elder brother is in poor health. I will bring a military doctor to help him."

   Really couldn't bear the thousands of thanks from the two of them, one general, so Jin Wei found a reason to leave quickly. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something, and turned back to ask.

   "By the way, the city may be chaotic these days, you'd better not go out."

   "Yes, it's all up to you, General!"

   "I'm not leaving...forget it..."

  Showing a polite yet awkward smile, Konoe stopped the couple's plan to send him off, closed the door intimately, and strode away.

   After waiting for him to leave, the couple looked at each other, their suppressed emotions were released like a tsunami, and they hugged each other involuntarily and cried loudly.

  In the hidden [Vegetable Market] in the corner of the city, Zhao Yinshun was looking up at the void with deep eyes.

  Behind the young man, Chu Qinfen stood respectfully by his side, and he could feel the tyrannical killing intent like magma rolling under the calm appearance of the Jun.

   "Diligence, whenever I think I have seen the dangers of human nature, some people can always surprise me..."

  Listening to the young man's muttering, Chu Qinqin pondered for a moment, then respectfully clasped his fists.

   "My lord, you are too kind."

   Without looking back, Zhao Yinshun grinned self-mockingly while maintaining a posture of looking up at the sky.

   "Yeah, I'm too merciful, so merciful that I thought they would have a lower limit..."

   "It's fine to catch the strong men, and don't leave a grain of food for the common people, forcing a situation where one person cannibalizes another!"

   "I've only heard that people cannibalize each other during the famine, but I'm thinking that there will be no natural disasters this year..."

   After hesitating for a few seconds, Chu Qinfen reported carefully.

"Your Majesty, according to the latest information, most of the strong men who were captured will starve to death, freeze to death, or die from exhaustion on the road. Among ten people who can reach the state capital alive, there are at most three or four. .”

  The calm breathing stagnated slightly, and it took a while for the boy in white to let out a breath of foul air slowly.

   "Originally, I was planning to fight steadily and eat slowly, but since some people are eager to die, I will fulfill them."

   "Send me the order!"

  Wow~

  Amid the crisp sound of armor clashing, all the soldiers around, including Chu Qinfen, knelt on the ground in half, staring at their leader with fanatical eyes. The infinite fighting spirit rolled in the pupils.

   "[Liuyin Fengguo] has entered a wartime state, [Shenwu Army] has assembled, mobilized reserves, I want to devour Luzhou!"

   Thanks to [Classmate Xiaoliu] and other book friends for their rewards.

   Note 1: "Cai Ren Sorrow", from Qu Dajun, a poet in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties

In addition, I saw some book friends say that my writing is unreasonable. I suggest that you read the history, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the end of the Song Dynasty, and the end of the Ming Dynasty. , I don’t even dare to write the real intelligence-reducing operation, the reality is much more magical than the novel!

   Actually, without the fantasy skin, my book is a documentary novel (￣_，￣)

   Finally, ask for tickets at the end of the month~~ヽ(≧□≦)ノ
