I ran towards the fork in the road with all my might, but when I turned the corner, a person appeared. I was shocked, so naturally, I gripped my sword tightly and was about to stab out. The fish head pulled me to the wall to hide our bodies, and said: "Master, there's no time to lose, please quickly take off your clothes, then put on my clothes, and quickly escape!" I looked at fish head and asked worriedly, "But you …"
"Quick!" Hurry up! "Catch him!" fish head looked behind him, his heart tensed up and said: "Quickly! Master has no time! " Eriobotrya, on the other hand, stood at the fork of the road on purpose so that the soldiers could notice him. Then, he ran in the opposite direction from where fish head and I were.
I looked at Eriobotrya and worry for him. "Eriobotrya, he …." The sweat on fish head's forehead was boiling, but he still comforted me and said: "Master, it's alright! Second Bro and I have our own escaping techniques! "Please quickly take off your clothes and put on my clothes!" "This..." fish head said, "I have already said it twice, do you still want me to say it a third time?" Looking at the resolute fish head, I no longer hesitated and followed his orders.
The fish head smiled in satisfaction and said: "Master, you must take care of yourself in the future! You will definitely regain your power! "Only you can make the people live a good life!" "Ahhh!" I don't understand why fish head would say such words. fish head was afraid that I would suspect anything, so he smiled and said, "Master, I will be going to meet Second Brother! Take care! Take care! No matter what you see later, you have to remember that you have to live on so that I and Second Bro can feel at ease! I believe that you will successfully once again become the overlord of a region! " The fish head said as tears flowed out of his eyes. In the end, he gave me a reluctant look and turned to leave.
I didn't understand why fish head would behave like this. I thought for a while, but didn't know where to go, so when I thought about the old beggar, I could only go to him first. He was abnormal, and also that the old beggar said that he would be safe at his place.
When I saw the old beggar again, he was also looking for me. The old beggar gave a deep sigh and ordered with an irresistible tone, "Follow me!" I didn't understand what he was trying to do, and couldn't explain why I trusted him either. After following him to a concealed location, a voice sounded. My lord, please come and see! "Come quickly!" Clang! "Dang!" The clanging of the gong attracted many people to watch from both sides of the street. Some of them even picked up some rotten vegetables and fruit and threw them on the two men who were caught. The people shouted in anger, "The Lord Fan is a good person, why did he have to die?!" "Kill these two bastards!"
I looked at the two of them and could not help but be shocked. I took two steps back and cried out, "It's fish head and Eriobotrya!" My mind raced, thinking back to the unusual aspects of the fish head and the Eriobotrya, then thinking about how I trained in martial arts, facing so many enemies chasing after me, I felt that it would be hard to escape, not to mention the and the Eriobotrya who had never trained in martial arts. The fish head knew that the two brothers had a deep affection for Eriobotrya. If he went to get captured by the Liu Yan soldiers, they would make it so that Liu Yan would think that all the other people in the city were captured, making it easier for me to leave the city.
fish head shouted, "Lord Fan, it is my honor to die for you in this life! If there is an afterlife, I'm willing to follow you! "I believe that in a few years' time, you will definitely establish a new era!" Humph! Fan Li was already dead, would he reincarnate? What are you, the murderer of Fan Li, saying!? " Fei Guan's face was not red from lying, but his heart did not beat around the bush. He still shouted loudly on purpose, using this to let the onlookers know that he had injured fish head and Eriobotrya, preventing them from making a sound.
"Damn it!" I saw fish head and Eriobotrya being beaten up so badly, that I wanted to rush out, but the old beggar held me back and shook his head to indicate me, saying, "If you rush out, wouldn't you be letting down on the two who sacrificed themselves for you? If you go out, the two of them will be sacrificed for nothing, which will only make the two of them suffer even more, and they won't be able to rest in peace even if they die! If you treat their families well after taking power in the future, can't you repay them like that to comfort their souls in heaven? "
"Lord, I'm going to take care of Second Bro!" Take care! Take care! No matter what you see later, you have to remember that you have to live on so that I and Second Bro can feel at ease! I believe that you will successfully once again become the overlord of a region! " I thought back to what fish head had said before he left. He clearly knew that I knew that the two of them were going to be caught and taken to the streets. He was afraid that I would impulsively go out and be caught by Liu Yan's army. " "I …" "Crack!" The bones in my hand crackled, and I punched the wall hard in the end, getting rid of the dust on the wall. I couldn't help but feel helpless as I couldn't save the fish head and the Eriobotrya.
The old beggar looked at me and said, "I am still the same old saying. Is your heart still there? If you still exist, then you can depend on your own heart to decide everything to you! " I looked up at the old beggar and asked, "May I ask who you are?" I think you must be extraordinary! It's not just an old beggar! " The old beggar smiled and looked at me, knowing that I wanted to know who he was, and said slowly: "I almost forgot who I am! If you didn't mention it, how would I remember it? Zheng Tai, that should be my name! "
"What?" Zheng Tai? Attendant, Zheng Tai! How could a court minister be reduced to a beggar? " I was extremely shocked. Zheng Tai laughed calmly, and spoke in a tone that was calm, as if he was not talking about himself. "Ever since I led Dong Zhuo to the capital, I have left with Lu Zhi. I experienced many difficulties on the way to escape from the disaster. I have tried to seek death time and again, but to no avail! When I was in the people, I saw everything I did not see when I was an official! In the process, I figured it out and understood a lot. My previous ambition has not been fulfilled. I can't die yet! For this, I survived! Even if my dream cannot be fulfilled, it will be realized by someone else! "
I gazed at Zheng Tai's face which had been left with deep scars due to the passage of time. I could tell from this that he had experienced many hardships in his life! Zheng Tai turned around, and I could see that his tears were dripping. Zheng Tai threw down a few words: "You decide based on your own heart! I'll be leaving first! " He left straight away.
A few days later, I sat on the dirty floor with my head against the wall, looking into the distance. The food that Zheng Tai brought back previously was not bad, although it was dirty, but now there might not even be food. Zheng Tai sighed, and said: "Sigh! Now that war has broken out, normal people wouldn't be able to eat much, let alone beggars like us. "
A beggar walked past us, leaning on a stick, his dirty feet bruised and bruised from the unclothed warmth, his hands frostbitten and swollen, palms down, his steps struggling forward, and I looked at him with pity and said, "He has no pants on, he..." Zheng Tai sighed and said, "If there is enough food, and the weather isn't too cold, then the weather in the south won't be as cold as that of the north. As long as he keeps walking around, there won't be any big problems. If he died, he would be frozen to death! Just one more! "
"Just one more!" What a plain sentence. This sentence did not explain how much he had seen, but it was no longer strange! Although his words were cruel, they were not false! Because what I saw was a wooden chest with an empty lid over a cuboid body in an alley, and inside it were a few skinny bodies. The wooden box was about to burst! Normally, this coffin-like wooden box would barely fit a person inside! I didn't think that I would be able to squeeze in so many bodies. I didn't dare to count them. Because the scrawny corpse had not been seen at all, and the bones had been reduced to sticks of dried wood, especially since the dead man's hands were still reaching out, I could imagine how much he wished, before he died, that he could eat and live, and escape the call of death! However... I was very sad.
The old beggar sneered and said, "It's a virtue to have someone do a good job for those roadside frozen to death! "Sigh!" At this moment, I looked into the distance at a straw mat covered by what looked like a human figure, said: "Could it be a human? "He …" "Dead!" Zheng Tai shook his head and answered. Dead? A refugee? So no one had collected the body? It's also like frozen bones on the road? " I think so.
