Conquest

    Chapter 302 [The Thing of That Year]

    "In the arrested people, including my parents."

    When Shaar heard this, his heart jumped awkwardly! At this time, Hasting's eyes still have no waves like Gujing. When he said this, the tone, but calm, almost has a terrifying taste!

    "Do you know that people are starving to death, what is it like?"Hasting looked at Shaar, he shook his head: "I don't know…Fortunately, I don't know. ”

    His voice gradually faded: "At that time, I was still young. In fact, the father’s participation was not too much. After all, he used to be an aristocrat, and his position in Senate was not too high. Even at the conference on June 2, he was also ill and did not attend. Although his father did something speculative about some businessmen, he was somewhat afraid of such big things, and he was not optimistic about Senate's approach. However, on the list found in Senate, there is his name!

    At the time of the search, the soldiers rushed into my house and sealed up the textile workshops at home, but I was not taken away. When the searched soldiers went to the street, the father saw it. I will never forget the expression on my father's face that day. At that time, the mother was already crying and standing unsteadily, and the father, he picked me up. At that time, I could feel the father’s arm shaking, I know, he was afraid, he was also in fear, but his The face is still laughing at me, then he smiled and said to me, 'son, are we playing a game? How about playing a peekaboo? '

    Ridiculous!"At that time, I was still young, and I still didn't understand what happened. I only remember that my father smiled very strangely. He said to me, 'I will come to a lot of armored uncles in a while. You have to hide well, unless I yell at the end of the game, otherwise you can't come out…I lost when I came out. '

    The voice of his father was already a little trembling, but he was still laughing, laughing hard and laughing hard.

    Then, my father hid me under a dyeing tank. I was so thin that I could just hide underneath.

    Soon, I heard the sound outside, someone was drinking, someone was crying, someone was screaming. The voice has the chamberlain at home. I have the old butler who took me to the street to buy sugar and eat it. I have the father who will take me to the kite in the summer, and when I sneak out to play, The doorman who opened the door to me, and the maid who smiled and blushing, I always liked it…

    Even I heard the mother's crying voice, but I never heard my father's voice.

    Until the end, I heard the outside of the yard and finally heard the voice of my father.

    This is the last sentence of my father I have heard in my life.

    He said, 'Do it all, and when things are coming, I am afraid of anything. '

    I couldn't see the scene outside, but the voices kept coming to my ears, and I heard the sound of slamming things outside. Although I am young, I gradually understand that this is not a game of 'hiding cats'.

    I was scared at the time, very scared, I want to shout. But there is a voice in my heart telling me that the voice is the father.

    Can't come out, just lose it when you come out!

    I hid under the dyeing tank for a long time, and there was no sound coming in from outside until…But I still can't go out. I was terrified in my heart, and my whole body shook with fear. This feeling is like a nightmare when you sleep, fear, and you will shrink into the quilt, cover your head, and dare not look outside.

    Think about it now…I was very fortunate because the search was in the city of Osgiliath, so the squadron of the house was only turned over but did not set fire. If they set fire, even if I hide, I am afraid I will be burned to death.

    When I finally got the courage to run out of the dyeing tank, it was already a day and a night. When I came out, the stars of the sky…I am dizzy and hungry, although it is summer, but I am cold.

    When I got out, it was dark outside, my home was gone…Everything in the house was smashed, there was no good thing, and all the valuable things were moved.

    I climbed out and stood in the yard. There was no one at home, no sound, no lights.

    But I saw it clearly, there is a lot of blood on the ground.

    Well, yes, only blood, no bodies.

    I stood alone in the empty home, looking in the yard, looking in the room, looking in the backyard, could not find a person. I am very hungry and very thirsty. Later, I saw some water in the sink of the horse shed. I drank a few mouthfuls, then ran to the kitchen and found something to eat.

    I am very scared, I want to cry, I want to cry. But I don't dare, I am afraid that my cry will call those people during the day. I bite a piece of chilly cake in my mouth and use this method to make myself silent.

    I left the tears in the middle of the night, until the day was bright, I finally remembered going out.

    My home is in the west of Imperial Capital. I didn't drive out the gate, and I got out of the hole in a wall that I used to sneak out when I was young.

    The street is also empty, no one. There are no lights in the neighbors' homes around our home, and every family has closed the door. I am afraid that they are worried about being implicated.

    I saw a few soldiers wearing armor standing at the door of our house and standing there. I was scared and slipped away from the wall.

    I was wandering the streets of Imperial Capital for a day. Others looked at me young, thin and smudged, and only when I was a little beggar. I don't know where my father is, nor where to find them.

    I have an instinctive thought in my heart. I know that I can't go to the friends of my father.

    I have been wandering the streets for three days. I am sitting in the corner of the street waiting to die every day, and there are other beggars around. But those guys don't care about me, because I don't open my begging and I won't take a job with them.

    On the third day, I almost starved to death, but there was a beggar who looked at me poorly and gave me half a piece of cake. The guy seemed to see something from me. After he gave me half of the cake, he secretly said to me: Try to sit in the corner and don't say anything.

    Later, I heard those beggar knowing something when I was chatting at night.

    I vaguely understood that my father was involved in a big thing, and that incident angered the emperor. The emperor ordered that the father and many other people were arrested. I heard that they all went to the Acropolis.

    There is also a message that the fathers are doing treason and rebellion. I heard that something happened in the Imperial Palace. The emperor encountered an assassination and suffered a little injury. He almost died.

    I heard that it is a very powerful expert.

    After I got the news, I tried to go to the Acropolis. I wanted to go there to find my family.

    However, Osgiliath closed the city, and the access to the market was extremely strict. I waited for six or seven days in the city. I leaned on the poor beggar and gave me some food every day. I survived.

    Finally, after the martial law in the city was lifted, I left Osgiliath. I am a little beggar, no one will be looking at me.

    After leaving the city, I don't know where the Acropolis is. I only know that in the south, I can only go south. I dare not take the road, just take the path. I am young and have little strength. Even if I go to the day desperately, I can't go far.

    I walked for a day and a night, my feet were full of blood, and finally there was nothing to eat, I even squatted on the ground next to the grass! !

    That night, I saw a man in the woods of a small road. ”

    When Hasting said it, Shaar jumped in his heart! Because Hasting's tone finally has some changes, some faint excitement.

    that personI want to come…He!

    "When I saw him, he was half lying under a big tree. The clothes on his clothes were very expensive. They were all good materials. My home was a textile workshop. I can naturally recognize them. But like me, he is dirty and has a lot of blood. He was lying there, half-closed, his face white and white, and I even wondered if he was dead – but I saw his chest still ups and downs, knowing he was still breathing.

    There is something in his side…Well, this is what you are using now!

    I didn't understand too much at the time, but there was something that attracted me! There is a bag on his waist, and there must be money in that bag! If you have money, I can buy it and buy clothes! Don't let me starve to death! I can live to the south to find my family!

    I have never done anything to steal things. But that day, when I saw that person lying there, he seemed to have only half a breath. I have no other way but to attack his idea.

    But my heart is still afraid. Because I was a child at the time, and he was a Lord, not too light, and not too much with my father. Moreover, it can be seen that he is very strong. andHe still has a weapon that I don't recognize.

    Such an adult, even if he has nothing in his hand, is bare-handed, and it is by no means a thin child I can deal with.

    Even if I stole his things, he would immediately notice that I wanted to run, and I must have run away from him.

    I have been hiding for a long time, and I finally made up my mind. I found a stone on the ground, and I was ready to stun him when he was sleeping!

    Well, I’m a little lighter, don’t kill him, it’s fine. As long as I can get the money from him.

    When I approached him with a stone in my hand, my heart was so nervous that my legs kept shaking, and I almost couldn’t breathe.

    I have never done this kind of thing, and several times, I want to throw stones down and run away.

    But just as I walked to him, he suddenly blinked!

    At that time, my scared hands were soft and the stones fell to the ground. I was afraid that even running away would not dare, just staring at him.

    He lay there and looked up at my eyes. After a while, he suddenly smiled at me. When he smiled, there was blood in his mouth. He said to me, 'So light stone is not dead. '

    I didn't know how to answer it at the time. I said in a confused way, 'I am too weak, I can only move so big. '

    Then I was afraid that he thought I was going to kill him, and quickly said, 'I just want to stun you. '

    He smiled and asked me why. I told him honestly that I need money, I need to eat and drink, and I need to wear clothes.

    What I didn't expect was that he casually took out a gold coin from his arms, and then he looked at me and asked if I was willing to help him do something. I was very scared at the time and could only say that I was willing. He said, let me go to a village in front and help him to buy something to eat and drink. It is better to have a little wine and some wound medicine. If I am willing to go, he can give me another gold coin.

    I thought about it and promised him.

    But when I was about to leave, he stopped me and asked me to return the gold coin to him first.

    I thought he regretted it – in fact, what I thought at the time was that with this gold coin, I went straight away and never went back.

    But he said to me, I am a child with a gold coin to buy things, it will be suspicion, he wants to return to the gold coin, gave me a few copper horns.

    I was very helpless. For that gold coin, I could only help him run a mile, went to a town in front, bought the food he wanted, and a little medicine.

    I am a child, and no one will doubt me.

    When I saw that I was going back, he was very happy and gave me the gold coin. Seeing that I was very hungry, he divided the food into me.

    When he was eating, he asked me where to go. I said to go south and go to the Acropolis to find my family.

    After he heard it, his face became very serious. He asked me how my family would be in the south of the Acropolis.

    I thought about it and told my story to him.

    After he heard it, his face became very strange and asked me, 'Your father is Senate? '

    I don't know what happened to Senate, but I heard my father and mother talked about it, so I nodded.

    His look was a little curious at once, asking my father what the name was, I said.

    He thought for a while and shook his head and said, 'I haven’t heard of it. I want to be a small character. '

    Later, he asked how long my family had been arrested. I thought about it for ten days.

    After he heard it, he sighed and looked at my eyes with more pity. Then he said to me: You don't have to go, go now…It has not been seen. ”
