两个人离开西阳县的时候是下午,当北莫温没有回头看,虽然西阳县是他的家乡,但此时的西阳城已经变成了一座死城,太阳落山后在风之城,他只想尽快离开这里.不久前,有一个岔路口.不久前下过雪,两条路上都没有脚印或车辙."哪条路,先生?"第五个问道."走主干道."莫问开口说,他不知道哪条路是对的,只能碰运气.第五个点头后,在路的左侧转弯,两个人是第一次走远,没有人没有出门旅行的经验,只能一步一步地走.冬天天黑得很早,天刚黑,两人此时在旷野中,不是在村子里铺了之后,只有透过雪光深深的脚浅带黑色.又过了两步,两人看到前方隐约可见的一段城墙,按照前进的速度和使用的时间,这里应该离西阳县清平城五十里远,城里没有平民,就是晋军营.看到城里两人加快了速度,距离更近了一点莫温发现城里没有光,没有光就没有胡人住在这里,比起鬼,莫问更怕胡,所以没有光的城市却让他安心了不少.城门敞开着,大雪并没有完全掩埋杀戮,城里到处都是形态各异的尸体,但两人现在看到尸体已经不像以前那么害怕了,进城后找了一座废弃的军房休息,"长官,你能生火吗?第五个跺了跺脚,问道."同样,胡人也不应该回来.短暂的停顿后,莫说以前,一切都由父母照顾,他不习惯自己做决定,但现在他必须学会做决定.营房里有个火坑,周围散落着柴火和火柴,老五很快就生起了火.在雪地里走了几十里,两个人的鞋子已经湿透了,生火后,两个人靠着火烘烤着被雪打湿的鞋子."师父,我们走对了吗?"第五个问道."没错."不要问和点头."你怎么知道胡人是这样回去的?"第五个疑惑的问道."城市主要道路上的尸体都被移到了两侧,显然是为了拿手推车.当来的时候,他们骑着马,当他们回来时,他们赶着马车去运战利品.不要要求解释."我们永远赶不上他们骑马和马车."第五个略显郁闷."他们必须在某个时候停下来."不要问."师傅,清平城是胡人的边界之后,如果胡人看到我们,他们会杀了我们吗?"老五焦急地问道."当然不是.几年前,我的一个同学和他的家人从赵国逃到了西阳.据他说,赵国的胡人不能肆意杀害自己国家的汉人.不要问."既然胡没有k汉人生病了,他们一家人为什么逃亡?第五个又问了一遍.莫氏苦笑着问温,摇了摇头,"听说赵国,胡人可以抢汉人的东西,甚至抢女人的亲戚,政府也不会调查."我们现在什么都没有了,只要把银子藏起来,就不怕他们抢我们."第五个说."真的不能放在包裹里."不要问和点头."它在哪里?"老人照顾好自己.
打开它,把它藏在你的鞋子里.莫问此时正在烤鞋,灵光一闪,想到了这个主意."真是个狡猾的伎俩."老五对莫竖起了大拇指.莫问温第五眼皱着眉头,看人家的仆人或多或少也懂一些普通话,但他们只是偶然向那里的人学来的,不知道它的细节,难免用错.
这时候,还没有官币,百姓买卖的都是铜钱或碎金零散的银子.金银堆积起来后,熔化成大锭储存起来,于是每家每户都会把金饼熔化捣成四块,每人背两块,打得掉的碎金放在外面花.
"先生,您认为夫人和我的侍女还活着吗?"老五做完后拿出干粮给莫问道.
"你不能被当作弱者对待."不问闻言想笑想哭,想笑因为老五还在想着林若尘的婢女,想哭就是小五的这个问题,是他一直不敢想的.
"你认为他们还活着吗?"第五次直盯着莫问道.
"活着."不要闭上眼睛,张开嘴.
"胡人是食人者,你怎么知道他们还活着?"第五个又问了一遍.
莫问闻言没有开口,而是摸了摸额头擦去眼角的泪水,他之前说过,林若尘和侍女应该还活着,但两个人活下来的原因,就是他不想面对.
"说吧,我的主."老五没注意到莫问招,还在问,老爷虽然叫了老五,其实还是个小五,比老.
"它们都很漂亮,胡人不会舍得吃的.莫蔓说话时带着颤音.在经历了之前的大变化之后,他明白了一个真理,即残酷的事情不会因为一个人闭上眼睛而停止发生,无论一个人是否愿意看到它,都必然会发生一些事情.
"Do you mean to say that the Hulk will keep Madame and my unused wife and sell them for a good price?" The fifth asked.
Mo ask the heart is extremely sad at this time, Lin Ruochen fell into the hands of Hu people not to suffer humiliation, this has become a foregone conclusion, will inevitably happen, he can not stop, also can not change, which makes him heartbroken, miserable. But the old five's words made him very funny, the old five was always thinking about what he promised, lest the things promised by the master would not be done correctly, so he only wanted to do things with a dalit and a wife.
"You are right, the Hu people will keep them to sell, so they are still alive, we have more than thirty gold, we can certainly buy them." Then I will marry you." Mo asked silence for a moment to say that he did not want to let small five uncomfortable, no point through.
"Thank you, young Master." The old man thanked joyfully.
Mo asked nodded and smiled, although in the smile, the heart is sad.
Part of the loyalty of the servant comes from the legend of blood and blood, and part comes from the master's sincere treatment. The words of Mo asked the little five were extremely moved, made the bed with water, and served them with great diligence.
"Young master, these boots are for official wear, here you are." The fifth handed a pair of dried boots to Mo.
"Your shoes are worn, you can keep them." Don't ask and wave your hand.
"That will do." The fifth began to try on shoes, this pair of boots well made, inside the rabbit fur pad, really comfortable after wearing.
Fifth put on the boots after walking back and forth, test whether fit, don't ask suddenly thought of something, "this pair of boots can not wear."
"I'm so angry that I'm not afraid of dead people walking through me." The fifth said casually.
"These boots belong to the lieutenant of the State of Jin. If you wear them in the State of Zhao, the Hu people may regard them as meticulous work." Don't ask and explain.
"What is detail?" It's the first time the fifth heard the word.
"They are spies." Don't ask for an explanation.
The fifth heard a look of fear, quickly took off his boots and threw them into the fire. But just thrown in and quickly grabbed out, the boots have not been burnt rabbit skin mat left.
"Master, you are becoming more and more like a grandfather. You are so thoughtful." The fifth chong Mo asked said.
Lao five said Mo asked not interface, but looked at the branches of the fire in a daze, this period of time he felt that he really wanted to think more, without the shelter of parents, all can only rely on their own, like trees, people's loss of the father is like the broken crown of the tree, the old saying has cloud, "crown broken new shoots, the father to the son," the death of the family forced him to learn to think and survive in the shortest time, It was brutal and quick.
"Sir, listen." Just when Mo asked blankly, the fifth interrupted him.
Mowen came back to listen carefully, and found that there were footsteps outside the house, which were very fast, from far to near, and obviously aimed at the room where the two people were.
The sudden footsteps made two people shocked, they came before the Qingping city without any footprints, the people outside the city naturally from outside.
"Sir, what shall we do?" The fifth urgently rushed not to ask for advice.
Mo Man was extremely alarmed at this moment, and instinctively wanted to run away, but he suddenly thought that there was only one footstep, which should not be a Hu, and there was no reason for the Hu to come here late at night to catch them.
"Probably not a fool." Mo said his judgment.
Don't ask the judgment is very accurate, the bearer is indeed not a Hu. But he spent too much time thinking about the problem in a panic, and as soon as he finished speaking, there was a voice outside the house, "The infinite heavenly respect."
Mo Wen heard the sound and turned around, only to see a young Taoist man in a blue Taoist robe standing outside the house. This man was about twenty years old, his face was white, his head was tied in a Taoist bun, his left hand was carrying a large package, and his right hand was holding a long sword.
"Will you two little brothers do me a favor and let the poor road rest here for a moment?" The young Taoist rushed to the two people said.
"We are passing by, too. Please come in." Don't ask and get up to greet, as long as it is not a Hu, whether the monk is a man or a woman, he is welcome.
The Taoist got Mo's permission, and then he stepped into the house. After entering the house, he put down his package and long sword, and bowed to the two people with fists, "the poor auditor."
By the light of the fire, Mo Man found that the person made a bow and the world was different, the world made a bow with the right hand, the left hand held the right hand, and the Taoist in front of him held the bent left thumb with his right hand when he made a bow.
"Chief, please sit down." Don't ask again.
The young Daoren's eyebrows and hair were frosted, apparently frozen, and he walked quickly to the fire to warm himself.
"Old five, give some food to the Taoist leader." Don't ask chong old five said.
The old five from the pack took out a cake to the young Taoist, young Taoist thank you after the past slow eating. Mo ask to see its swallowing difficult then pour half a bowl of warm water for it, the young Taoist thanks to its nod, took the pottery bowl drink.
"Thank you both." When the young Taoist had finished eating, he stood up and looked as if he were about to leave.
"It's a cold winter night. Let's stay here tonight." Don't ask to speak to retain, he and the fifth out of the house, two eyes a black, at this time urgent want to talk to people, understand the situation outside.
"There is a long way to go and we cannot slack off. If these two wooden plates are given to you, it may be blessed." The young Taoist man took out the yellow wooden plate of two hands from the package and handed it to Mo Wen and old Five.
"Thank you very much." Mo ask took the wooden plate to thank the young Taoist, the young Taoist package is full of this kind of wooden plate, when thousands, must be the amulet given to the pilgrims.
Young Taoist people do not stay, say goodbye, come and hurry, go and hurry.
"Sir, is there something strange about this Taoist amulet?" The fifth said.
"What's the blame?" Don't ask standing at the door watching the way to the south.
"I can't read any of the symbols drawn by other monks, but I recognize one character on this one." The fifth said.
Don't ask smell words small sense of doubt, although the fifth diligent, but do not want to read, he knows the words together will not be over a hundred. With doubts, Mo Wen went to the fire by the fire carefully, found that this wooden plate is not the kind of Taoist amulet drawn before, but the two sides of the writing, the back of the writing is small and more, the light is unknown, difficult to identify, the positive writing is large and less, only two vermilion seal characters, the Qing!
