Chapter 13 - ① Soldiers approaching the city
Chapter [-] - ① Soldiers approaching the city
It is said that six years before Bai Feng began to walk in the rivers and lakes, he was still childish on his face and played with his friends by the river as usual.He was soaking wet, lying carefree on the grass and enjoying the sunshine, accompanied by unknown bright flowers, the fragrance of which was mixed with the breath of the grass and the river, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

The boy who was walking home slowly dragging his wet clothes, when he was halfway through, suddenly saw his mother in the distance walking towards him righteously.

"You stinky boy, you ran away to play and didn't work, and your clothes got wet!"

Seeing that her mother was so angry, Bai Feng immediately ran in the opposite direction, and her mother naturally chased after him.At this time, the young and young Ying's pace was already as fast as that of an adult man. When he walked to a crowded place, he could completely leave his mother behind.

I saw him flash past Abo, who was carrying the firewood, on the left, and the aunt who was holding the child on the right;Wherever he went, there were riots.

However, Bai Feng felt extremely happy. Such rogue tricks were one of his usual ways of making fun.Although it can cause a lot of trouble for parents, most people don't take these things seriously.Not only because Bai Feng was born with a flattering skin, but also because of his innocent and cute way of dealing with others and doing things that belongs only to children.

After a lot of damage, he usually apologizes to others face-to-face with extreme remorse, with a pitiful and inexperienced look, no matter how hard-hearted "judge" will punish him heavily, let alone in this folk custom In the simple Xiangyang Village.

Bai Feng fled to the outskirts of the village a few miles away, where the thick trees provided natural shelter for wild animals.When he passed by the mountain "Yangshan", which is close to the village, he suddenly remembered the legend of "Yangshan White Snake Fairy": according to legend, there lived a huge white snake in Yangshan. It was cramped and boned, cast spells and imprisoned.The light is disabled, and the heavy is demented, so I dare not continue to stay under Yangshan.

When he was about to turn around and go back to the village, his sensitive intuition told him that there was an abnormal situation ahead.Immediately afterwards, a group of black crows in front of them were frightened for some reason, and flew from a distance in the direction of Bai Feng.The teenager held his breath and wanted to find out, and the best way was to find a high place.He took courage and walked up Yangshan Mountain. After reaching a position that was conducive to observation, he saw a strange dust rolled up in front of him, and the dust was the army of the Xianbei people!
"The rebels are here!" Bai Feng said in surprise, "I'm going back and tell the people in the village!"

As soon as the words fell, Bai Feng rushed to the village.

"Everyone flee into the city, the rebels are almost at the village!" Bai Feng repeated these words aloud as he ran towards his house.As if he was about to use up all his strength, after returning home, he directly poured the water from the porcelain pot on the table into his dry throat and body, and then said to the puzzled father and mother: "Dad, Mother, the rebels are coming soon, let's run away!"

A family of three entered Yangcheng with the hurried flow of people and gained temporary safety.The sound of the iron hoofs of the Xianbei army had already reached Yangcheng, as if the whole earth was shaking.After a while, black smoke rose from Xiangyang Village outside the city—the enemy was burning the houses of the villagers.They made sharp and strange cries as they set fires, making the villagers in the city panic.

"Can the city walls really be held?"

"This is the foot of the emperor, shouldn't it be safe?"

"Buddha bless, Buddha bless..."

That day, the Xianbei army began to siege the city. They were numerous and fully equipped, and their fighting spirit was high. They were simply unstoppable.And the morale of the defenders in Yangcheng is getting lower and lower. Many people choose to abandon their armor and drag their troops to flee, and some even choose to take refuge with the Xianbei people. As a result, there are many Han faces in the Xianbei army. Many people have chosen this path.Every time the Xianbei battering hammer hits the gate of Yangcheng, the people in the city become even more desperate.

"There will be no hope." Almost everyone in the city flashed such a thought.The Hu people's sturdy and bloody style has always been notorious, but Yangcheng is located in the deep part of the Central Plains, and it has always been a quiet corner. Not to mention the Hu people, in the past few decades, even a real war has never been encountered.But from the day the city gate was breached, Yangcheng signed a contract with war and rebellion for nearly ten years.Overnight, Yangcheng almost became a racetrack for the Xianbei people.The smoke rising from the nearby ruins is just a bonfire for their fun. The fire seems to illuminate the endless night; the dead bodies that can be seen everywhere, the women, children and the recalcitrant men are the playthings in their hands.This is a massacre, and the common people are ravaged by the strong like ants in the eyes of human beings in the face of unnecessary power struggles.

On the night the city gate was broken, His Majesty the Emperor was beheaded for public display, and his head was hung in the city to deter those who still had the heart to resist.Bai Feng's family and all the people in the city were captured. If anyone fled or resisted, the only way out was death.

In order to eliminate the captive's desire to survive, the victors usually use the means of "feeling tender" or "intimidation".The unsinicized Hu people are bloodthirsty and warlike peoples. For them, "intimidation" is not a means, but a hobby.Unfortunately, Bai Feng's mother was chosen as the target of killing chickens to show the monkeys.

More than a dozen soldiers with mixed Chinese beard and beard guarded Bai Feng's group of prisoners. A tall, dark-skinned and sturdy Xianbei warrior in leather armor paced among the prisoners, staring at the ground tremblingly as if he was picking out good goods. people.After a while, his eyes focused on the family of three.The three of Bai Feng watched him slowly walk towards this side. Bai Feng's father instinctively protected his wife and children behind him and asked loudly, "What do you want to do!" The Xianbei warrior turned a deaf ear and kicked him directly in the cheek. , and then dragged Bai Feng's mother to the front of the prisoners.The Xianbei warriors attacked her and made obscene actions that wanted to violate her, angering Bai Feng's father who was kicked away by him.

When Bai Feng's father saw the sword on the soldier next to him, he grabbed it with lightning speed, but the soldier didn't even mean to stop it.The man with the sword rushed directly to the Xianbei warrior, and a cold arrow flew out of nowhere, hitting the man's knee.Bai Feng's father knelt down on one knee helplessly, howling in pain.The Xianbei warrior let go of Bai Feng's mother, walked towards Bai Feng's father, and beat and kicked him until he couldn't get up.In the end, the Xianbei warrior pulled out the arrow from Bai Feng's father's knee, thrust it directly into his back, and laughed wildly.The Hu people are reluctant to even hold weapons, just to show that killing a prisoner is as easy as stepping on an ant, so as to achieve a more perfect intimidation effect.

At the same time, the young Bai Feng was completely stunned by this scene. He stared at his father who had died tragically in front of him. He used all his strength to barely stand up. His trembling body still wanted to rush towards the father-killer. enemy.At this moment, a pair of gentle hands hugged him from behind, and took Bai Feng into his arms, covering his eyes with their hands.The mother, who had seen her father killed, cried out hysterically and threw herself on top of her dead father.Immediately afterwards, a Han soldier approached the two of them, picked up the sword on the ground and stabbed Bai Feng's mother, the crying stopped abruptly.Bai Feng still saw this moment from the gap in that hand. In that instant, countless emotions and tears poured out together: fear, helplessness, anger... He passed out because of this.

The soldier who stabbed Bai Feng's mother to death loudly threatened: "Your emperor is already dead, and the consequences of your resistance are like this! Obediently obey orders, women stand here, men stand over there!" The young woman holding Bai Feng in her arms Carry him and follow the procession.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Feng was awakened by the sound of "zizi" produced by the flames burning wood beside him. He looked outside the house and found that the fire was still burning.It wasn't until he was fully awake that he realized that he was hiding in a haystack.When he was about to remove the hay to go out, he suddenly heard intermittent moaning and gasping sounds from outside. He poked a small hole in the haystack to observe, and found that the Han soldier who had just killed his mother had his back facing him, assault a woman.Then I saw a sword next to the soldier, so I wanted to take the opportunity to draw the sword and kill him!
Bai Feng walked out of the haystack slowly, and crept over there to draw his sword, only to find that the murder weapon was so heavy, so he had no choice but to hold the hilt of the sword and aim at the soldier's back with the tip of the sword.Bai Feng held the sword high, almost the weight of the sword stabbed the boy forward.

"Ah!" After a scream, the soldier turned around and punched Bai Feng to the ground.The young man who had never used a sword really did not have the ability to kill. That stab was only because the tip of the sword did not go into the soldier's body, which was far from causing him any substantial damage.

The soldier took back his sword and prepared to kill the boy who was resisting him with a sword, but he forgot that there was still someone behind him.I saw the woman pick up a stone from her side and smash it hard on the back of the soldier's head. "Boom," the soldier fell to the ground.The woman looked at the blood-stained stone in her hand with a look of surprise, as if she didn't believe she could knock down the soldier.

The teenager who was half lying on the ground looked at the woman who was wearing only a tulle in front of her. She was naked. The delicate skin under the tulle was a symbol of her youth, and her lower body was covered with blood.

The woman nervously walked up to the boy, stroked his bruised cheek, and asked, "Are you all right?"

Bai Feng subconsciously avoided her body and replied, "It's fine. Sister, please put on your clothes." The fragrance from the woman's body and the gentle hand made Bai Feng recognize that she was just now. People who block themselves.

When the woman was changing her clothes, he asked, "Why did my sister stop me from avenging my parents?"

"What's your revenge? It's obviously a death sentence." The woman's dry eyes seemed to be drained of tears, and she looked at the boy and said, "The Hu people are doing this to make us fear and make us lose our minds. As long as we don't give up life in our hearts. Hopefully, one day I can escape."

Suddenly, an unusually loud voice came from outside the house: "Catch them quickly! Don't let them run away!"

The woman realized that this was the best time to escape, and in a blink of an eye, she took Bai Feng's hand and fled in the direction of Xiangyang Village.What caused the chaos were the men who had been recruited as strong men. They set fire to the residences of several soldiers in the dark!Not afraid of the legend of "Yangshan White Snake Immortal", the two fled straight to the mountain.The torches of the chasing soldiers were densely packed under the mountain, chasing the villagers who fled outside.

The two dared to speak until the fire below the mountain dissipated.

"What's your name?" the woman asked Bai Feng.

"Bai Feng."

"My name is Chun, and my family was also killed. We seem to be sympathetic to each other..."

Bai Feng didn't respond, and his heart kept lingering in the tragedy just now.After a while, he suddenly asked: "Sister Chun, do you think the legend of 'Yangshan White Snake Fairy' is true?"

Chun hesitated for a while, then replied, "Uh... No matter how terrifying the White Snake Immortal is, it should be far inferior to people."

"Heh." Bai Feng sneered, "I think so too." Bai Feng thought back carefully about the actions of Xianbei people just now, and the flame of hatred rose in his heart, but if he was impulsive, he would have already died.So he thanked Chun and said, "I can't repay Sister Chun's life-saving grace."

"You can live well is the biggest reward for me." Chun smiled.

"How can you live a good life with a bloody feud..."

"What about revenge? Someone has to come out to end this troubled world, and ordinary people like us won't be implicated."

After listening to Chun's words, Bai Feng wanted to see her face clearly for the first time.The moonlight was bright and bright, reflecting on Chun's face, showing several bruises, Chun also looked at Bai Feng's appearance.The two faces looked like they were painted with black mud, which made them both laugh.

"In the future, our two brothers and sisters will depend on each other for life and survive together!"
