MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 38

They slept outside the city that night, not long after they heard crying, Liu Yuru woke up suddenly, Gu Jiusi hugged her, covered her mouth, and did not speak. But on the field, a woman was crying with a child in her arms, while a man and another woman were fighting.

The surrounding people stared blankly, and some people were just about to move.

Liu Yuru's body trembled slightly, she seemed to know something, she heard the man roar and shout: "Give me! Give me the rice bag!"

The woman was holding onto the bag tightly and would not let go no matter what.

"Just one night!"

The woman shouted: "One night, the city gate will be opened, and when you enter the city official's mansion, food will be released, you can't wait all night!"

"The gates won't open!"

"

"What about..."

Someone asked aloud: "We came here, they don't open the city, what should we do?!"

There was a commotion around, Liu Yuru grabbed Gu Jiusi's sleeve, the two of them carried their burdens and stepped back without a trace.

All goodness turned into nothingness. The surrounding people rushed towards the weak people they saw, screaming and cursing mixed together, Gu Jiusi grabbed Liu Yuru and rushed into the distance.

The surrounding area is densely populated with people, and the savagery and violence seem to be contagious, like wind and waves, quickly sweeping the surrounding people.

Gu Jiusi couldn't bear to hurt people, so he just pushed away the people around him, protected Liu Yuru, and moved forward with difficulty.

But I don't know who it is, and suddenly shouted: "They have food!"

Everyone looked at Gu Jiusi and Liu Yuru, and the man yelled, "I saw them eating bread just now, they have food!"

Compared to those refugees who were so hungry that their bones protruded, Gu Jiusi and Liu Yuru were indeed much better. Although they looked haggard, they were still full of energy, obviously not starving for a long time.

Liu Yuru looked at the pair of wolf-like eyes, her whole body was shaking, Gu Jiusi protected her behind him, clenched the knife in his hand, pretended to be calm and said, "What do you think? ?"

But everyone looked at them, no one moved forward, and the two sides were deadlocked. Gu Jiusi knew that he must not retreat at this moment, and must not show any weakness, otherwise, once someone stepped forward, he would fall into the most desperate situation like the rich businessman back then.

He doesn't allow anyone to start this.

But he was actually scared too.

He is not afraid of so many people.

When Wang Rong brought the black soldiers over, he was not afraid, but now he is afraid. Not only because of the number of people who can't see clearly, but also because of...

They are not the military.

They are the common people, the people who have been driven to a dead end by fate.

Are they wrong?

They just want to live, they just try their best to seize the chance to survive. He has a knife in his hand, as long as he draws the knife, maybe he will fall down because of the exhaustion of the wheel, but before that, it is a one-sided massacre. This will be a sin that he will never be able to wash away in his entire life, and a nightmare that he will never forget for the rest of his life.

Drawing the sword against the weak goes against all his past cognitions and beliefs.

If it's just him now, that's fine, but behind him stands Liu Yuru, his wife.

So he clenched the knife and stalemate with them.

At this time, a man suddenly rushed out, he was not tall, he rushed in front of Gu Jiusi, cried and kowtowed frantically: "Master, master, have pity on me, my lady The last breath, she can't do it, she'll die soon, you give her a way to live."

Gu Jiusi was stunned.

At this time, the man swooped over!

He has a knife!

Even if the knife is very short, but at this time, a knife is a sharp weapon. He rushed towards Gu Jiusi desperately, Gu Jiusi kicked him away, and at this time everyone around rushed up, Liu Yuru hid behind Gu Jiusi, and the people next to her dragged her to **** her burden, Gu Jiusi did not dare to do it Killing people, he tried to kick the surrounding people away.

Too many people, too many.

The surrounding people exclaimed: "It's cake! And noodles!"

Many people rushed over and shoved them into their mouths without any hesitation.

What a precious thing this is among the refugees!

"They still have!" The rest of the people who didn't grab it were red-eyed. They no longer had any scruples, and they rushed forward with all their lives. Gu Jiusi watched the man stab Liu Yuru again with a sharp blade. , He finally couldn't bear it anymore and drew his knife.

Blood splattered out, and the surrounding area screamed.

Gu Jiusi cut three people in a row, he protected Liu Yuru in one hand, and held a knife in the other, looked at everyone, and shouted angrily: "Go away!"

Finally, no one dared to step forward. Gu Jiusi grabbed Liu Yuru and walked into the distance step by step. He stared at everyone, his blood-stained face like Shura.

Everyone watched them and watched them go out.

Someone wanted to pounce, but Gu Jiusi's skills were very clean and neat, and when he turned around, he chopped people to the ground. Such agile skills finally let everyone know who was the one who was not to be provoked, so no more People dared to attack them, they walked slowly, disappeared into the night, and then a new round of looting continued.

When they saw people, they were afraid, and they started walking until they could not run. The two of them didn't say a word, and the fear and shock in their hearts were invisibly contagious.

When the sun rose, there was no one on their way. The people in the past all traveled from the north of Cangzhou to the south, but they went upstream to the north, and there were naturally fewer and fewer people.

They are very tired, but they dare not stop. Compared with those refugees, there is an extremely firm belief that supports them.

They are going to Youzhou.

In Youzhou, they still have their own relatives, waiting for them.

Liu Yuru took Gu Jiusi's hand, and the two walked on the deserted road. They kept going, and kept going.

People are getting less and less and eating less and less. They have changed from two meals a day to one meal a day. When they were sleepy, they found a place to sleep, leaned against a big tree, and as they headed north, almost no one could be seen.

Without Liu Yuru's burden, their food had gone from being enough in front of them to being completely insufficient, so along the way, they saw trees, saw grass, and if they saw anything they could eat, they tried their best to eat it.

If they encounter a water source, they must drink water hard, and then fill Gu Jiusi's wine bag.

However, as the sun gets hotter, the interval between encountering water sources becomes longer.

It was the first time they saw that kind of desolation that looked boundless at first glance, with no grass, no trees, empty houses, and large pieces of land like tortoise shells dried up.

Liu Yuru fell first. She was weak. After falling asleep one day, Gu Jiusi found that she could not wake up. He was so frightened that he hurriedly poured water on her, then opened the bag and wanted to feed her.

However, when he opened the bag, Gu Jiusi was surprised to find that the food left in the bag was far more than he thought.

He was stunned for a while, and then he reacted.

These leftovers should be left over by Liu Yuru deliberately. He felt a little sour in his eyes, he couldn't tell what it was, but the situation didn't allow him to think too much. He hurriedly took the cake, drank some water, and after chewing it, he fed her mouth to mouth.

He gave her something to eat, so he carried her on his back and started walking. The temperature on the ground was very high, his shoes were already rotten, and he could clearly feel the pain from the abrasion of the epidermis on his feet, but he didn't dare to stop.

He kept walking forward, and in the afternoon, when the weather turned cold, Liu Yuru lay on his back and slowly opened his eyes. She felt his temperature, looked at the surrounding scene, and said hoarsely, "Jiusi?"

Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while, then he happily said, "You are awake!"

"What's wrong with me?"

Liu Yuru had no strength, she felt her whole body was soft, Gu Jiusi carried her on her back, as if afraid of scaring her, and said gently, "You passed out just now."

"Sorry..."

"Sorry about what to say," Gu Jiusi smiled, his voice a little hoarse, "It's me who should be sorry."

Liu Yuru didn't speak, Gu Jiusi was carrying her on his back, he tried to make his tone lighter, but he still couldn't restrain the pain and despair, guilt and embarrassment in his heart.

"I should have found out earlier that you didn't eat much." His tone seemed relaxed, but Liu Yuru could still hear the cry, "I should have known earlier..."

"It's fine." Liu Yuru lay on his back, her voice a little weak, "I will."

"What would you like..." Gu Jiusi's voice trembled.

Liu Yuru feels tired, she is too tired.

If you can last a few more days, there is still half way to go, the food is gone, if you can't find water, you will let my blood drink..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Gu Jiusi shouted angrily, he actually guessed it, he guessed Liu Yuru's thoughts, but when Liu Yuru really said it, he couldn't help but shout out angrily: "Don't think about it! Gu Jiusi trembled, "Even if I die, I won't do such a thing. Liu Yuru, I tell you, live together, die together. If you die, I won't go to Youzhou, what am I? If you don't go anywhere, I will accompany you to die here."

As Gu Jiusi spoke, tears fell.

He thought that he would not cry, that he had grown up, but he found out that this heaven is always crueler than you think.

When he lost his father and his friends, now he will lose Liu Yuru.

And this loss is like Ling Chi, let him watch, watch, and even send her to **** for his own survival.

But he will never let God succeed.

He will never make a choice that God thought he would make.

"I know, you still think of your mother," Gu Jiusi cried, "your mother is still waiting for you in Youzhou, you are her only daughter, you are gone, how can she Do? I won't help you take care of her. Even if you die, I will never care about her. I am a wolf-hearted person, I will not feel guilty, I will accompany you to die here, I will never let her You wish!"

"You died worthless." Gu Jiusi whispered, "Liu Yuru, you have to live, you must live, you know?"

You can't die.

You're dead...if you're dead...

Gu Jiusi raised his head and looked around.

If she dies...what will he do?

He can't think of it.

Her life now is his idea of ​​living, so she can't die, absolutely not.

However, Liu Yuru couldn't move him.

She is conscious, but she no longer has the ability to open her mouth.

She was lying on his back, feeling this man, he stubbornly carried her on his back and walked forward step by step.

She didn't know what kind of perseverance and determination kept him from stopping.

They ate all the food, leaving half a bag of water bags. At this time, there was nothing to eat, so Gu Jiusi went hungry together with her, drinking a little water every day to barely survive .

When there was only more than 100 miles left in Youzhou, Gu Jiusi finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell down.

He stretched out his hand and hugged Liu Yuru tightly in his arms, he tightened his arms and hugged her very hard, very hard.

"Yuru," he said hoarsely, "you must accompany me..."

He put his face on hers and said with a trembling voice: "You are my life, you have to live, do you know?"

Liu Yuru was silent.

In fact, he really wanted to cry, he really wanted some tears to fall, at least Liu Yuru could drink a little.

But he has no tears.

The lack of water made his whole person reach the limit.

He looked up at the scorching sun, and he knew that if he continued like this, he and Liu Yuru would both die.

He gritted his teeth, took out the knife from his waist, and cut his palm.

Bright red blood fell, he pinched Liu Yuru's chin, and all fell into her mouth.

Some fell on her cheeks and lips, Gu Jiusi saw that the wound was about to freeze, he hurriedly sucked on the wound and drank the last bit of blood. Then he looked at the blood beads on Liu Yuru's face, he lowered his head and gently licked her face and lips.

He carried her back on his back and continued on. In fact, he has no strength, but the person on his back has become all his beliefs.

He was not afraid of death, but when he thought that if he died, Liu Yuru was going to die, he was afraid to death.

So he could only hold on, walk on the uninhabited wilderness, keep walking, keep walking.

After days and nights, he finally saw a little green and saw people.

He carried Liu Yuru forward and saw the boundary monument.

On the boundary monument are two words that are not very clear, Youzhou.

Gu Jiusi looked at those two words, her lips trembling slightly.

"It's here..." He hoarsely said, "Yuru...we're here."
