Farmer of Shu Han

  Chapter 77 Dead Qi

   Let the veterans and their family members from Nanzhong live in the cave first. Apart from the reason that there is no place for them to live in the village, Feng Yong actually has a more important thought in it. After all, these people came from war-torn lands. These days, natural disasters are terrible, man-made disasters are even more terrible, but the most terrible thing is the plague. After a plague, it is the most normal thing to see no one in a thousand miles around. The places of war are often the birthplace of the plague, so letting them live in caves and observe them for a few days is also a necessary means.

  As for the possibility of the infection of the Liao people on the other side of the cave—damn it, you also escaped from the Nanzhong side anyway.

   After staying with the aborigines of the Han Dynasty for a long time, Feng Yong felt that his world view was gradually collapsing, or it was being reshaped by the ancient aborigines.

   Alas, my willpower is still too weak, and I failed to uphold my principle of equality for everyone, Feng Yong felt emotional.

  It should be long enough to stand on the ground thinking about it, right? After estimating the time, Feng Yong felt that he had fulfilled his duty as a mascot, and was going to rest under the shade of a tree for a while. Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he saw a dozen or so people coming down the official road and walking towards him.

  Wang Xun, who had been standing behind him all the time, suddenly shot like a stab, and rushed to Feng Yong's left front, staring at the person in front of him. Zhao Guang was a step slower in reacting, and suddenly passed Feng Yong, blocking half of his body intentionally or unintentionally, and at the same time he could feel their bodies tense up.

   Something weird? The abnormality of the two made Feng Yong suddenly suspenseful. This is the capital city, and it can be regarded as the safest place in Shu Han. Nothing will happen, right?

   Those who came came to a standstill far away unexpectedly, and the leader bowed his hands and saluted, and raised his voice: "The front is Feng Langjun from Fengzhuang?"

  The voice was not loud, but it carried an uncomfortable astringency, which made Feng Yong a little uneasy, as if someone had slammed a hammer on his heart.

  Wang Xun's voice trembled slightly: "Those people smell like blood, brother, be careful."

  Flash of enlightenment flashed in Feng Yong's mind, and he said, "The kid is exactly Feng Yong, I don't know who the old man is?"

"Then you have found the right person." The old man in the lead had a flattering laugh, "but he can't be called Feng Langjun's old man. The old man and others just listened to Li Langjun's words and came from the south. Those who come here and join Feng Langjun."

  Understood, I was talking just now, and the people arrived, and it turned out that they were the veterans who had talked with Li Yi.

   "Okay, my own people, don't be nervous." Feng Yong patted the two people in front of him, signaling them to get out of the way. At the same time, I was a little moved. Wang Xun's ability to stand up was not unexpected. I didn't expect that Zhao Erha, who was usually humming and inconspicuous, would be able to block himself behind him. It seems that being a man is not too much of a failure.

  Checked the eyes... Oh, no, I took the letter from the other side and confirmed that it was written by Li Yi. After reading it, Feng Yong rolled up the letter paper in the palm of his hand and counted the group of people in front of him. There were only seven, not even ten, and it seemed that everyone was more or less incomplete. The lightest is a broken palm from the wrist, and the heaviest is the loss of an arm. They all seem to be genuine veterans, but why don't they even have a family member? Immediately, he asked strangely: "Why are you so small?"

The headed old man lost one of his left eyes, and there was a long scar from his forehead to his lips. He had a humble smile: "If you want to return to my lord, the old man and these people can eat enough for one person." , The whole family is not hungry, even the family has been taken in by God, but we have left a sigh of relief for ourselves, there is no such burden, and we came here with a mouth, so come here in advance to report to Feng Langjun. The rest of the comrades are all family members and have to pack their things, so they are slower."

  It's good that the old man doesn't speak, but when he speaks, the scar on his face is wriggling like a red flesh worm, adding a bit of horror for no reason.

  Although the other party has lowered his identity as much as possible, standing under the sun, Feng Yong still felt a cold aura, which Feng Yong had only seen before when he was in the army.

  At that time, there was a senior colonel in the army, who often walked alone, avoiding the crowd from a distance, let alone talking to anyone. Once Feng Yong was walking alone in the camp, and just happened to meet the senior colonel coming towards him, and he saluted him. When the senior colonel returned the salute, he casually glanced over to see the dead man's eyes, and the lifeless look all over his body. Feng Yong's legs were so weak that he couldn't move his feet because of the human smell.

  Later, I heard people say that it was a veteran who survived the self-defense counterattack. I heard that he was a sniper back then and won the title of battle hero...

  Wang Xun had fought on the battlefield, and probably sensed the killing spirit of these veterans, so he said that they smelled bloody. Anyway, in Feng Yong's eyes, the clothes they wore were dirty and torn, but there was no suspicious red color.

These veterans spoke half-truths and half-false words, and the greetings in advance were probably true, but I am afraid that they were more interested in finding out about the situation. After all, moving to the capital, and including food, housing, and finding jobs for their families is such a good thing, what do you think? Why is it a little suspicious-the ten rings outside the capital are also the boundaries of the capital, aren't they? So they should have come to explore the way, to see if Feng Yong sincerely took him in.

  If they find out that they have been cheated, they will be free to come and go without the burden of their family members. But once those comrades with their families left the place they are familiar with, it is difficult to go back. It seems that they are all old fritters.

Feng Yong didn't talk about their small thoughts, nodded and said: "So that's the case. However, everyone may come at a bad time. These days are the seasons when the fields are busy, and there are not enough people in the village. The new house has not yet been built. Well, I can only wrong you and live in the cave at the back of the villa. After the busy work for a while, everyone will work together to build the house. I hope the old man will not think that the boy is deliberately negligent."

  Feng Yongqiang endured the discomfort in his heart. The dead breath on these people is really too heavy.

"It's okay, it's okay, the guy who crawled out of the pile of dead people, it's God's favor to have a place to live, so don't dare to ask for too much." The veteran's attitude was very low, looking at Feng Yong's pale face, Taking another two steps back, he laughed at himself, "They all had human blood on their hands, and their bodies were full of bad luck. They offended the Lord, and I hope that the Lord is not to blame."

   "Not to blame, not to blame, but the boy is too weak to bear the heroism of the old man, ashamed."

   Immediately, he called the housekeeper over and told him to take these people to the cave that had been prepared a long time ago. Then he hurriedly dragged Zhao Guang and Wang Xun back to the mansion, threw the letter paper that had been balled up in the stove and burned it, then asked someone to boil water, and then folded some willow branches and soaked them in the water In the morning, the last three were all naked and soaked in the big bucket.
