readx; Under the strong order of Zhang Yingyuan, Zhu Youzhen had to lead everyone down the city. Zhang Yingyuan, the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info didn't even let them bring bows and arrows, and only one person was given a spear to pick up the dead bodies in the moat.

"Your Highness, I see that this Ying Yuan has bad intentions, and I can't leave the city later!" Seeing that the people around her were not paying attention, Li Zhenyan quietly said to Zhu Youzhen, "What Sister Meifeng said also makes sense, how can so many dead bodies be buried?" ”

Zhu Youzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I also know that Zhang Yingyuan saw that we were favored by Zuo Liangyu and deliberately gave us small shoes to wear." But what can I do if I am a fish and a man? If we don't go out of the city, this guy will really dare to kill us on the grounds of disobedience. At the moment, our strength is too weak, so we have to take one step at a time. ”

With that, everyone dodged out of the narrow gate and found themselves in a dead battlefield outside the city.

What a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!

The headless body of the thief lay on the ground, and there was no need to count them, but I knew that there were at least two thousand. It was the height of summer, and although it was already night, the temperature was still not low, and the bodies of some of the thieves who had been dumped here two days ago had begun to decompose. The stench of the rotting corpse and the heavy smell of blood mixed together, and the smoke made people sick.

"There are so many corpses, we are desperately digging pits, and we can't bury two or three hundred corpses until dawn!" Qi Meifeng couldn't help but say worriedly.

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly: "Who said we were going to dig a pit." ”

"How can you bury a corpse without digging a pit?" The red lady asked in surprise.

"Simple, burn with fire!" Zhu Youzhen said without thinking.

Everyone immediately came to their senses, and they all secretly admired Zhu Youzhen's quick wit. In fact, in this era, there are already "chemical fields" for cremating corpses. However, the Chinese funeral tradition has always been "buried in the ground", and only the ownerless starvation and those who died of the plague will be treated by cremation; Others are just poor in their families, and they would rather the living not be able to eat, and they must prepare a thin coffin for the dead.

Including the fallen soldiers, the side will naturally retreat back to the city, and he will be properly buried in the future; Even if it is an enemy's, he can't let him burst into the wilderness, at least dig a big pit and fill it directly. Therefore, when it comes to cleaning up corpses, people naturally think of digging pits, but ignore the simple and easy method of cremation.

Now that Zhu Youzhen has thought of this idea, the rest of the matter is simple. Everyone worked together, first pulling together the corpses scattered all over the battlefield and gathering them into a pile. Then find something that starts a fire such as thatch and twigs nearby, and place it around the corpse pile.

The special combat team members all carry fire folds with them, which are exactly what they need at this time. As the so-called "**", the branches and thatched grass caught fire as soon as they saw it, and it soon burned into a huge fireball, devouring those corpses mercilessly in it.

When they did these things, they all looked solemn and did not have any contempt and blasphemy. As the saying goes, the dead are great, even if they are enemies on the battlefield, after dying in battle, there should be a decent way to end it, not to mention that these people are originally forced, and they can be regarded as unjust souls.

Qi Meifeng also folded her hands and muttered a prayer: "May my Buddha be merciful, show grace extensively, and transcend these unjust souls, and don't fall into the hell of Ah Nose." In the next life, you will not suffer from this sword soldier again! ”

Zhu Youzhen listened and said with a wry smile: "Meifeng, why haven't you put down the butcher knife yet, you are going to become a Buddha on the ground?" ”

Qi Meifeng said seriously: "I have nothing to do these days, and I often listen to Yuanyuan explain the Buddhist scriptures to me, and I have a lot of insights after listening to them." ”

Zhu Youzhen was silent, if there really are almighty gods and Buddhas, could it be that this world full of killings is the result of their "compassion"? Counting on them to purify all sentient beings, isn't that carving a boat for a sword, and a wood for a fish?

Come to think of it, what needs to be done is still to be done. It took more than two hours, tired and sore backs, and finally gathered all the visible corpses on the battlefield together, formed twenty or thirty corpse piles, and lit a fire respectively. For a while, the fire was in the sky, and half of the night sky was reflected in red colors; The smell of burning filled the smoke everywhere, choking everyone almost out of breath.

At this time, it was nearly four watches, and it was the thickest time of the night. In the end, when everyone came to the moat, they didn't even fish out the corpses, but threw the fire fold and the things that ignited the fire on it. The fire immediately burst into the sky, because this pile had more bodies than the others, and therefore it burned extremely fiercely.

"Whew! It's finally done! Zhu You let out a sigh of relief, beat his waist that was so tired that he could barely stand up, and reluctantly smiled, "Let's go back to the city!" ”

But when they came to the front of the city gate tower, everyone was dumbfounded! It turned out that the suspension bridge had long been hung and the city gates had been closed, and more than 20 of them had been locked out!

Now Zhu Youzhen can't be calm, this is a battlefield! Without the protection of the city wall, just a few people like them, Zhang Xianzhong charged with a cavalry, and they had to confess everything!

Therefore, he hurriedly shouted to the city: "Lord Qianhu! The last general has already disposed of all the corpses, please quickly lower the drawbridge and let us in! ”

After a while, Zhang Yingyuan at the head of the city yawned and scolded impatiently: "What is the ghost called, not long after Ben Qianhu fell asleep, he woke you up!" What's the hurry to enter the city, let's talk about it at dawn! ”

"What!" Zhu Youzhen was really anxious, and shouted loudly, "How can there be a place in this wilderness? Are we going to squat all night outside the city? What will we do if the enemy soldiers come over! ”

"Then I don't care, you can do whatever you like." Zhang Yingyuan smiled sadly, "Anyway, the garrison has an order, and it is strictly forbidden to open the city at night, and this thousand households are just carrying out the order." ”

"You..." Zhu Youzhen was so angry that his chest was about to burst, and he really wanted to shoot this damn Zhang Yingyuan down with an arrow. But when they touched it, they remembered that their bows and arrows had been confiscated, and now they only had a spear in their hands.

"Forget it, don't be like this kind of villain, it's not worth it if you're angry!" Li Zhenyan hurriedly persuaded Wenyan, "Isn't there a dirt mountain outside the city?" You take a break on the top of the dirt hill while we stand guard at the bottom of the mountain. When we find Zuo Liangyu until dawn, he will let us into the city. ”

"That's all there is to it!" Zhu Youzhen had to lead everyone to the foot of Tushan. At this time, the breeze suddenly rose, although it was a hot summer night, it was a little cool. He was so tired and sweaty from carrying the corpse just now, and when the wind blew at this time, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but shiver.

"Forget it, there's no need to go to sleep on the dirt mountain." He said angrily, "It's at the foot of the mountain, it can still block the wind here!" You go to sleep first, and I'll be on duty at the top of the mountain for a while! ”
