"How far is Dengzhou?" The rain fell like cow hair on Lotus Flower's goose face, soaking in her hair and tattered clothes.

The road was filled with a continuous stream of people, like a huge army advancing. They are old and young, dragging their families, carrying luggage, pushing carts, and staggering forward. The road soaked in the rain was like flour poured with too much water, and it was a complete mess. Countless feet stepped on, cars ran over, and suddenly the mud became even more muddy, and it completely became a swamp full of traps.

Everyone braved the rain to move forward, and from time to time there were cries and shouts. Some people walk and walk, and suddenly they fall down and can't get up again. Most of the people who fell were old people, and most of them were hungry. The old people were weak, drenched in the wet and cold autumn water, and there was no food along the way, so they couldn't walk and walk. Their relatives were crying beside them, but in the face of such a situation, the people on the road were already accustomed to it, and even numb.

Along the way, there were too many people who fell, and there were such corpses everywhere on the roadside, and one could be seen every once in a while.

Lotus was holding a wooden stick in her hand, and there was a feeling of hunger in her stomach, and she felt that her whole stomach was sour. If it weren't for the stick in her hand, she would have almost fainted on the muddy road several times.

Shaking her head to sober herself up, Lotus brushed her loose hair up again, revealing a smudged face. Looking at the outline, this is a goose long face, in good shape, if it weren't for the mud on her face that obscured her original face, she would have been a beautiful woman. The body is a little thin. Most of them were hidden under a rudimentary raincoat strung with large foliage trees.

But it was still vaguely clear that this was a young girl, and the bun on her head indicated that this should be a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, who had not yet left the cabinet. For some reason, he was alone following the crowd on the road.

"Not far away, we have just passed Mount Tai, along this Wenshui, all the way to the east, you can reach Qingzhou. Arrived in Qingzhou and then went east. After Laizhou, it is Dengzhou. A teenager next to him, who looked a little smaller than Lianhua'er, said. The young man was wearing some coarse cloth clothes, and the black hair on his head was tied in a bun at random, and a wooden stick was inserted, not even a cloth towel. On the muddy ground, he simply pulled up his thin pants. Tie your crotch tightly to your knees. A pair of straw sandals broke off the first belt, so he simply took off the straw sandals and tied them to the cloth belt around his waist. Directly hit a pair of bare feet. Walking in the mud.

The teenager looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. The long calf was as thick as a calf, and its whole body was tattered, but it also carried a long cloth bag with two spear-like objects in it. That's what Lianhua'er guessed, the young man was extremely precious to the cloth bag on his back, and he never untied it wherever he went. And he never took it off and opened it. Based on the shape, the lotus could only guess that it might contain two spears. But looking at the tie of the cloth bag deep on the young man's shoulder, it seemed to be two very heavy things.

"Dengzhou is really as good as everyone says, and you can eat enough when you arrive in Dengzhou. Don't go hungry anymore? Lianhua'er asked again.

"I heard that this is the case, some people in our Shouzhang County fled to Dengzhou before, and that was last year. Then I heard that the family had stayed there, and in the middle of May the men of the family came back on a tall horse, dressed in silk and satin. When he came back, he also brought back a few carts, which were full of grain and cloth, and the man was an orphan when he was a child, and he grew up playing snacks and surnames, and later married a girl from the same village and had children. When there was a famine last year, I couldn't get by, so I said that I was going to Dengzhou to find an aunt who married in the early years, but after arriving in Dengzhou, I had to be recruited by a general as a soldier, and then followed the general to the battlefield and fought a few battles, and actually made a lot of military achievements and became a team leader. When he came back this time, he returned to his hometown, sent a lot of grain and cloth to the people in the same village, and then took his father-in-law's family to Dengzhou. Some time ago, I heard his father-in-law write a letter to Shouzhang's relatives, talking about what is good in Dengzhou now, and asking them to go to Dengzhou. ”

When the boy said these words, his eyes were full of brightness, and it was a kind of yearning.

When Lianhua'er listened to this young man's words, her mouth was extraordinary and very civil, and she couldn't help but be even more impressed. She was originally a maid from a big family in Yunzhou, and the little lady of the main family who usually waits also invited Mr. Xixi to the door, and she followed aside, and she also knew some words and arithmetic. Maybe this young man's home used to be the home of the eunuch, but maybe the family fell into the middle of the road, Lotus guessed.

The two met halfway through Yanzhou, when Lianhua'er was separated from the main family's carriage on the road, helpless and lonely like a poor stray puppy. The boy caught a snake and was preparing to stew it in a broken crockpot, but he couldn't catch fire. The muddled branches not only did not catch up, but instead made a large amount of smoke, and the choking boy in the ruined temple had to escape, and then they met.

When the young man saw Lotus, she was still wearing clean clothes, and her whole person was spotless, but the pear blossoms brought rain. The young man couldn't help but be shocked at that time, and asked in a daze: "Do you know how to cook on the fire?" ”

The girl was so impressed by the young man's honest appearance that she stopped crying helplessly, followed her into the ruined temple, and then helped him to cook the pot of snake soup. When the fire was burning, the young man just sat next to him and watched stupidly, secretly looking at her from time to time.

The two shared the pot of snake soup, although there was no seasoning, but the two of them ate very happily.

The boy learned that the girl was also a fellow villager of Yunzhou Shouzhang, and he couldn't help but be more cordial. The girl was going to go to Qingzhou with the head of the family to take refuge with relatives, but she was lost on the way. "I'm going to Dengzhou, just passing through Qingzhou, if you believe me, you can follow me, I'll send you to Qingzhou first." The boy said this at the time, and Lotus agreed without any thought at the time, she just felt that this boy was worth believing.

The two went all the way from Yanzhou to the border of Zizhou, and as long as they passed through Zizhou, it would be Qingzhou.

After staying for a long time, there is something special between the two of them.

Every night when it was dark, Lotus would sleep beside him, and at first the two were far apart. Considering the difference between men and women, but later, the lotus flower got closer and closer. One day he woke up in the middle of the night and found her cuddled up to him, her arms around his waist. He had been lying there listening to her breathing, for a long time, until he suppressed the urge between his thighs. He told himself that he should be a gentleman, and now is the time. Whatever the reason, there should be no misthought.

Later, he put the cloth bag that he had been carrying with him between the two of them, silently isolating. Megumi Yanagishita can be innocent, but he is afraid that he will not be able to control himself. In that cloth bag. They were the two iron spears he never left for a moment. He believed, seeing these two iron guns. He's not going to do anything out of the ordinary.

The lotus flower has jet-black hair. It was shiny, and the boy felt that this was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. In particular, her skin is very white and her body is a little thin, but she is very slim. In particular, the big place is definitely not small, and the chest is full. It looks even more attractive under the thin figure. And her waist was so thin that it seemed that he could hold it with both hands as soon as he stretched out his hand. Several times, he had an impulse. I want to reach out and hold the willow waist of the lotus.

A few days ago, a private school teacher with a stick had been with them for a few days, and then he slept one night and never woke up the next day. While they were together, one day the old gentleman said, "My Fair Lady, good gentleman, you like this girl, but why do you always reject people thousands of miles away?" ”

He swallowed and vomited for a long time, and finally said a sentence: "Why home? ”

The old gentleman glanced at him in surprise, opened his mouth to say something, but at the end he let out a long sigh and said nothing. The next day, the old man never woke up, and he could never know what the old man wanted to say at that time.

Another long night came, their luck was good, at the foot of a mountain on the side of the road, there was a temple that had been toppled, looking like that, this temple seemed to be destroyed when Wu Zong destroyed the Buddha. However, for those refugees passing by, whether it is the Son of Heaven or the gods and Buddhas, it is an extremely distant thing at this time. It would be nice to have a ruined temple in the midst of this terrible weather.

The young man also found a corner of the ruined temple with the lotus flower, they found a little branch and leaf and an old table in the ruined temple and dismantled it and burned a fire, the gentleness of the fire made them feel much more comfortable, and even temporarily took away the discomfort caused by hunger.

The two leaned together as usual, and as usual, the boy placed his pouch between them. The fatigue of the day hits them, and they quickly fall asleep.

"Ahh A scream from Lotus woke the boy up. By the dim light of the fire in the temple, he saw four strong men with fierce faces approaching Lotus Flower, with a lustful look on their faces.

The young man pulled Lianhua'er behind him and glared at the four men.

"Little rabbit, this is nothing to do with you, so if you know each other, hand over the girl, and reward you for playing after the grandfathers have played. If you don't know each other, don't blame us for being polite. ”

The other said viciously: "What are you talking about with him, you directly knocked this kid unconscious, and when we have played with this little lady, we just roasted this kid on the fire." Look at this kid is quite strong, just enough for us to eat. Damn, along the way, people are going hungry. ”

In the ruined temple, in addition to them, there were about dozens of other refugees, but at this time, seeing such things happening, none of them stepped forward. On the contrary, when those few people said that they were going to kill the young man and eat barbecue, there were several people who revealed their expectations in their eyes.

The young man picked up the gun bag on the ground and held it in his hand, and said coldly to these wicked people: "I have two guns, one is called the Breaking Array Overlord Gun, and the other is called the Tiger Roaring Tooth Gun. Now, I'm giving you a choice, would you rather die under the Formation Breaker Overlord's Spear, or die under the Tiger's Roaring Tooth Spear? ”

The boy's gaze was cold and merciless, the opposite of when he treated Lotus. Looking at these wicked people, he has already pronounced their death sentence in his heart!

"Hahaha! Boy, bragging doesn't look at the object, in front of us, you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue. If you had obediently knelt down to us now, kowtowed thirty times, and slipped under our crotch, perhaps we would have spared your boy's life. If the grandfathers are in a good mood, we will eat meat in a while, and you can still drink soup."

Before he finished speaking, he saw a sudden afterimage flashing, whirring a few times, and then the words of the pretending man came to an abrupt end.

There was a sudden silence in the temple, and only then did everyone see the young man take a few steps back. But when I looked closely, I found that he took a few steps back and was still standing in the same position he had just had. Only then did everyone realize that no one had seen him take a few steps forward just now.

With a cold expression on the boy's face, he stepped back to his original position, turned around, and pulled the panicked, pale Lotus Lotus forward, embraced her whole person into his arms, and pressed her face in front of his own.

Lianhua'er's heart was in turmoil, snuggling up to the young man's chest, listening to the slightly rapid heartbeat, but her heart was beating faster and more violently.

The other people in the temple had not yet figured out what was going on, and they didn't know why, why the four wicked men suddenly didn't speak, and they were still standing there like clay statues. Just when everyone was still confused, the wicked man who had just spoken suddenly fell backwards, and the whole person fell to the ground with a bang, motionless.

Immediately after that, there were three more bangs, and the other three wicked people also fell one after another, all of them lying on their backs on the ground, motionless.

At this time, there were people with sharp eyes who were close to each other, and suddenly found that there was a small red dot on the eyebrows of the four people. That little bit of scarlet is the blood that slowly seeps out. Just now, the young man actually pierced the eyebrows of the four people in an instant, not only killing the four people in a row, but also making them not even react until they died.

Everyone was shocked, and then they looked intently, only to see that in the hand of the original young man, there was a big black iron gun at this time, and I didn't know whether this gun was the overlord gun that broke the formation, or the tiger roaring tooth gun.

But it wasn't until this time that they realized that what the young man asked just now turned out to be true.

Feeling the gaze of the people in the temple, the young man swept his eyes away, and immediately made those refugees who had planned to eat meat and drink soup with a wicked person, and immediately kowtowed like pounding garlic and shouted for mercy.

"Get out!" The boy snorted coldly.

A group of people in the temple were running for their lives. There was a bolder man, dressed extraordinarily, who seemed to be the son of an official eunuch, and when he fled to the door, he stopped and asked from a distance: "I don't know what the name of the young hero of the road is!" ”

The young man hugged the lotus flower in one hand and the iron gun in the other, and snorted coldly, "In Xiayunzhou Shouzhang Iron Gun Wang Yanzhang, this is going to Dengzhou, if you have any ideas, you are waiting at any time." ”

"Don't dare, just ask the young hero's name, and make a name for the young hero in the future, don't dare to bother, say goodbye!" After saying the last sentence, he turned around and disappeared into the dark rainy night. (To be continued......)
