Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 887
The little girl was so frightened that she kept crying, but the man laughed.

The boss went up again, and the man drew out the knife and put it on his neck.

"wanna die?"

Seeing this scene, Zijin drew out his knife angrily, "Girl, this servant is going to kill those bastards!"

Zijin said that she was going to go forward, but Liu Yunxiang hurriedly held her back.

"girl!"

Liu Yunxiang hissed at her, "Someone is here."

A group of cavalry came from the west. They were all wearing armor. The leader was a man with a mustache who looked very gentle. He reined in and stopped in front of the wine shop.

When they saw the man, they rushed forward to salute, "General Mo."

This General Mo stared at the man in front. Under his gaze, the man swallowed and quietly let go of the girl.The little girl cried and went to help her father up, and the father and daughter were trembling with fright.

"You have to guard Yangguan during the war, don't you know or ignore military discipline?" General Mo said with a cold voice.

The leading man hurriedly knelt down, "Subordinate... I have drunk too much, please forgive me, General."

"Come here, tie him up and take him back for punishment!"

"General, please forgive me!" The man hurriedly kowtowed.

Several other people also woke up at once, and helped the man intercede.

But General Mo didn't care about it, and continued to walk forward on horseback.

The man was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground. Two soldiers tied him up, dragged him to the horse and took him away.

Soon the night was quiet again, and the father and daughter of the restaurant hurriedly hid back.

"My servant thought that the men from the Southern Jin Dynasty drove the men out of the city, leaving only women, maybe..." Zijin coughed dryly, "This servant is wrong."

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "You can't just look at things on the surface, but the military discipline of the Southern Jin Dynasty is indeed quite strict."

"If the Southern Jin Dynasty can rise up in a short time and have the momentum to sweep the Central Plains, their army will not be bad." Yan Mu said.

"really."

Before outside the city, they had fought with some Southern Jin soldiers who were chasing refugees. They were not only physically strong, but also had good martial arts. Such people were naturally much stronger than some of Dayong's pretentious fighting power on the battlefield.

They walked to the depths of the alley for a while, and saw that the door of a house had been broken open, and the yard was in a mess, probably no one lived there.The three of them thought about resting here for a night and making plans tomorrow.

Zijin walked in front, stepped on something under his feet, looked down carefully, and couldn't help gasping.

"A corpse!"

Yan Mu took out the fire folder and took a photo on the ground. It was the corpse of a man, about forty years old, who was killed with a knife.They walked a few steps further in, and saw the body of a woman in front of the house, then went inside, and saw the bodies of two children in the main room.

All four members of the family were killed.

Yan Mu frowned deeply, "How many people's homes have been broken down, and how many such miserable scenes."

Great glory accumulates weakness, and the common people are the most miserable.

The weather in the south was sweltering, and the four corpses were already decomposing.They dug a hole in the courtyard and buried a family of four in it.

That night, Liu Yunxiang leaned against Yan Mu, and the two sat on the steps in front of the house.

The bright moon hangs high, which should be a beautiful scene on a good day, but in their eyes, it is cold.

"If we don't give up an inch of ground, if we really lose to the Southern Jin Dynasty, what should we do then?" Liu Yunxiang thought of the people under the ruined city, they are already so miserable, if the country is ruined...

She dared not think.

"What to do if you think so much, the fight is over." Yan Mu said.

"You never thought you would lose?"

"So what if we lose, at least we're not being shy."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, and she hugged Yan Mu's arm, knowing that he was not as relaxed as he said.

The next day there was movement at the opposite door, and Zijin asked them what they were going to do.

The doorman looked at Zijin, a little surprised, "You are?"

"We escaped from the west side, and we will temporarily settle down in this house."

The woman at the opposite door asked doubtfully, "You don't know that there is a porridge shed in front of Yuanchang's medicine shop?"

"Porridge shed?"

"That's right. After the Southern Jin invaded and occupied Ling'an, the city gates were closed. Those who had surplus food at home could survive for a while, but soon there would be no more food. Everyone was starving, and how many people died of starvation in a day. That Yuanchang medicine The owner of the store is a local benevolent man, he took out the medicinal materials stored in the medicine store to exchange food with the people of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and then gave porridge to everyone in the medicine store every morning and evening."

The woman hurried out as she said, "If you go late, there will be no more."

The woman just took two steps when the lame man chased her out.

"You stay home, I'll go!"

"Go back quickly, if you don't take good care of that leg, you'll really be crippled in the future!"

"When you come back, didn't you hear that women have been missing these days?"

"The missing ones are all the good-looking ones, I'm an old lady, and they don't look down on them."

Despite her husband's dissuasion, the woman ran out.

Liu Yunxiang came out of the yard and asked the crippled man, "Brother, what's the matter with your leg?"

The man sized them up first, and then said: "Yesterday when I went to the porridge shed, I was kicked because I bumped into a man from the Southern Jin Dynasty. The man from the Southern Jin Dynasty was so strong that he broke his bone when he kicked me. Fortunately, Yuanchang Medicine Store The doctor gave me medicine and fixed it with a wooden board."

"Well, then what did you say about the missing woman in the city?"

The man hurriedly looked around and saw no one around, so he whispered: "You three girls, it's best not to go to the street. The missing woman is probably captured by the Nanjin people."

"What did the people of Southern Jin arrest these women for?"

"Who knows." The man paused again, and said: "After the Southern Jin people entered the city, the men secretly plotted a riot because they couldn't bear the humiliation, and of course they were suppressed. The Southern Jin had a premonition that it would not be safe for the men to stay in the city. , they caught men on the street, and they either killed them or drove them out of the city. Slowly, there were fewer and fewer men in the city, and the rest were women. And if women escaped from the city, they would send It takes so much effort for people to chase, but they don't know why."

When the man said this, he saw people from the Southern Jin Dynasty patrolling the street, so he hurriedly retreated home and quickly locked it.

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to go to the kitchen to find three bowls, "Come on, let's go to the street to have a look."

When the three of them came to the street, they saw many people coming out of their homes and running into the city with their bowls.There are patrolling Southern Jin people on the street, and the common people walk around when they see them.

Before arriving at the Yuanchang Medicine Store, there was already a long queue for porridge recipients, and the three of them also lined up.

Everyone was orderly and lined up, but everyone kept their heads down and no one spoke.

At this moment, a man ran towards them in a hurry. He looked over one by one, his face getting more and more ugly.

"San Niang? San Niang?"

As he shouted and searched, his whole body became more and more broken.

"My wife is gone! She's gone!"

He asked the people in line, and they all looked sympathetic, but shook their heads.

Someone even persuaded the man to go home quickly and not to cause trouble.

At this time, the patrolling Southern Jin people heard the movement, and the man gritted his teeth and ran up, "Where is my wife? Where did you catch her? Return her to me!"

The man shouted like crazy, the Southern Jin soldiers pushed him away, but he still stepped forward.

The leader's face sank, and he slashed at him with the knife.
