The ugly time has already been knocked out, and the stars in the sky seem to become dim as the night deepens, and there are seemingly non-existent clouds across the sky.
There were only two usable rooms in the courtyard. At this time, the lights were being blocked. The small military doctor of the Black Flag Army gave first aid to a total of five seriously wounded people. Huangshan occasionally brought out a hot water basin with blood. , From time to time, I could hear the little military doctor scolding Huang Jianfei and Qu Longjun in the room.
The blood was poured into a jar, which was temporarily sealed. In addition, some people started to cook in the kitchen under the command of Yan Ying.
When the little military doctor was dealing with the seriously wounded in the room, the few people outside who were not seriously injured had already wrapped themselves up, and they watched the outside for a while from the roof and the wall. When things seemed to calm down a little, Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying met and discussed for a while. Then Huang Nanzhong called Ye Ye, who was the best in Qinggong at home, and led him through the city to find a previously reserved character with hands and eyes, and see tomorrow morning. Can you get out of town. Yan Ying also summoned a subordinate and asked him to go back to find Guan Shanhai in order to find a way back.
"We've all been fooled by that devil." Looking at the treacherous night outside the courtyard, Yan Ying sighed, "The situation in the city is like this. I'm going to warn everyone about the chaos... Before tonight, everyone in the city was talking about 'reckless and dangerous'. Among those who said this, it is estimated that many of them are the fine work of the black flag. After tonight, everyone will accept the troublemaker. Heart."
"At the end of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo's power overwhelmed the government and the opposition, relying on the emperor to make the princes, the court up and down, no one would be afraid. It is rare to be able to overwhelm people with power." Huang Nanzhong said, "As long as he can't convince people with virtue and reason People, predecessors and successors will always appear.”
The riots in the city are vague, always coming, and the two chatted a few words under the eaves, feeling uneasy. Speaking of the little military doctor, Yan Ying said, "Can you really trust this little doctor surnamed Long?"
"He violated military discipline and secretly sold medicines. It was a month ago. If the black flag wants to be convicted, he will not let a 14- or 15-year-old baby come here. It's just that he grew up in the black flag since he was a child, even if he committed a crime. It's hard to say whether you can help us with all your heart."
"If you can catch a black flag person and let him kill him, you don't need to guess."
When Yan Ying said this, he looked out of the courtyard, and Huang Nanzhong also nodded and looked around. At this time, there were still 18 people in the yard. After removing the five seriously wounded people, Wen Shoubin's father and daughter, as well as the two of them, still had nine people with martial arts skills. It is not impossible to catch a single black flag. .
But the two were silent for a moment, and Huang Nanzhong said: "In such a situation, don't make any extras. Now there are good players in the yard, and I also explained to Jianfei and the others, pay attention to this little military doctor, he is so old, he can't play. What kind of tricks to come."
Yan Ying's face was gloomy and he nodded: "That's the only way... Yan has a relative who died at the hands of the black flag today. He is thinking too much right now. If there is any offense, please forgive me."
Huang Nanzhong also bowed his hands and looked grim: "Huang brought it today, saying that he is a family general, in fact, I have watched many of them grow up, some are like sons and nephews, some are like brothers, and here are the additions. Ye Ye, there are only five people left. I don't know what happened to the others, and whether they will be able to escape from Chengdu in the future... For Brother Yan's mood, Huang is also the same and empathizes with him."
After the two finished speaking, Huang Nanzhong said hello, turned around and went into the room to check the emergency situation.
The rear is just two blue brick houses connected side by side, with simple furniture and simple furnishings. According to the previous statement, it was the only property that the small military doctor of the Black Flag Army used the military pension to build within the city of Chengdu after his family members passed away. Since it was originally a single person, there was only one bed in the room, and it was used as a first-aid clinic at this time.
In a hurry, everyone spread straw, rags and other objects on the ground for the injured to lie down. When Huang Nanzhong came in, three of the original five wounded had already received emergency treatment and bandages, and was taking out the bullet from the leg of the fourth wounded. The room was full of blood, and the wounded bit a rag. But it still made a penetrating sound that made the scalp tingle.
The atmosphere in the room was tense, the little military doctor scolded, Huang Jianfei followed along, and the girl named Qu Longjun carefully wiped blood and sweat for the little military doctor, with a look on her face that she was about to cry. Everyone was stained with blood, and seven or eight candles were lit in the room. Even though the summer was over, it was still unspeakably hot. When Huangshan saw the owner of the house come in, he came to say hello in a low voice.
Although the little military doctor's words were not clean, the movements under his hands were fast and orderly. Huang Nanzhong took a few glances and nodded. He didn't enter the door mainly to give instructions on the operation. He turned his head and looked into the inner corner, only to see two heroes, Chen Wei and Qin Gang, lying there.
The killer named Chen Wei was a general under Ren Jingzhu's "Ghost Conspiracy". At this time, due to his serious injuries, half of his body was bandaged, and he was lying there motionless. If Huangshan hadn't told him that he was fine, Huang Nanzhong would have almost thought that the other party had already died.
Qin Gang, who was beside Chen Wei, was a little bigger. After the first aid, he refused to close his eyes and rest. At this time, he put a pillow behind his back, half lying and half sitting, with two steel knives in his hand, as if he was not familiar with everyone. , is still vigilant about the surrounding environment, guarding the safety of his companions.
He was determined to get close to the other party, walked over and said, "Qin Yingxiong, you are not seriously injured, you have bandaged, it is best to rest..."
Just listening to Qin Gang said: "I don't dare to sleep peacefully before leaving the dangerous place. Besides, people of my generation who practice martial arts can survive today's pain. If they suffer from this injury in the future, it will be nothing."
"The hero is really a man of iron and blood, which is admirable." Huang Nanzhong cupped his hands, "Please rest assured, the hero, as long as I am here, even if I risk my life tonight, I must protect the two of them. This is for the sake of … In the future, when we talk about today’s demon slaughter, we can put the name of a hero like Zhou Zongshi in the forefront. I will wait for this time, and my life will not be regretted…”
When he mentioned Zhou Tong, Qin Gang fell silent. After a while, he seemed to be listening to the voice outside: "Is there any movement outside?"
"There are still people who follow one after another. The Black Flag Army is ferocious and amazing, but they are helpless. Maybe tomorrow will dawn, and we will hear the news of the devil's execution... And even if we can't, with today's feat, there will be a steady stream of people in the future. Come. Today is only the first time."
His voice was calm, and even in a bloody and hot room, it gave people a sense of security. Then Qin Gang glanced at him, gritted his teeth and said, "My three junior brothers died under the sword of the black flag... But my senior and I are still alive. Today's revenge will be repaid in the future."
"Definitely." Huang Nanzhong said.
The two were talking here, and the little doctor who was saving people over there snorted: "I came to the door myself, my skills are not as good as others, but I'm still shouting for revenge..."
The young man's tone was unpleasant. Several seriously wounded people in the room had been pinched in the hands of each other before. Huang Jianfei had been warned by the master that it was inconvenient to attack. But under the situation in front of him, who didn't hold a fire in his heart, even if Qin Gang glared at the other party, Huang Nanzhong, who was sitting beside him, also had a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but patted Qin Gang's hand. , turned his back to the little doctor, and spoke lightly.
"This year, the Jurchen ravaged the Central Plains and all over the south of the Yangtze River. Today, the refugees are scattered. I don't know how many people will starve to death this year. This scene has been in the Central Plains for ten years. It's not a joke. Aotian, what you saw in Chengdu was prosperous and prosperous, but in today's world, many people are really going to starve to death. When we came here , for what?"
The little doctor held a knife in his hand, and there was blood on half of his face, as if he didn't expect the other party to dare to retaliate: "I can't beat the Jurchen, blame the Southwest?"
Huang Nanzhong was calm: "The Wu Dynasty has established a number of obscure rulers, there is nothing to say about this, but now he has lost his country and the world is torn apart. He saved millions of soldiers and civilians at the hands of Jurchen. The Black Flag Army said that he won the hearts of the people, so he will not be held accountable for the time being. What is the actual reason? It's all because the Black Flag refuses to be responsible for the millions or even millions of people."
He talked eloquently: "Of course, the scene is well-spoken. Black Flag has that inner demon in charge. On the surface, he says he has opened his door and is willing to do business with the Quartet. So what is business? Today, the rest of the world has been smashed. There are a bunch of worthless bottles and cans left. Only the Huaxia Army has abundant products. On the surface, they do business. They say that if you bring money and goods, I will sell them to you. It is to peel off the skin and bones of each household…”
"... In previous years, there is nothing to say about the way of businessmen. He has done business, and it is his ability. But now these businesses are related to the lives of every individual. The devil wants to do this, naturally There will also be those who can’t survive, want to come here, let the black flag change to a less powerful leader, so that the people outside can live a little more, so that the black flag can truly be worthy of the name of China.”
His words were calm and calm, and Qin Gang, who was beside him, nodded repeatedly and squeezed Huang Nanzhong's hand. The little doctor on the other side was saving people and was concentrating on him. He only felt that these voices entered his ears. All of those words seemed to make sense, but each of them was extremely awkward. , sorting out the ideas but not knowing where to start.
That Huang Nanzhong stood up: "Okay, the truth of the world is not as straight as we think, Doctor Long, you save people first. After saving a few heroes, there is still something to say, the old man will talk to you again. You said it, and you won't bother here now."
He was angry, but after all, he had a clear distinction between the importance and the importance. What would be the benefit of refuting the teenage Black Flag members to be speechless? Even if you want to do something, you can only make plans after the other party saves people.
He said goodbye to Qin Gang, patted Huang Jianfei and Huang Shan on the shoulders, and walked out of the room. At this time, the fourth seriously injured person in the room was almost ready to bandage.
In the yard outside, everyone had already cooked rice in the kitchen, and they found a small jar of pickles in the corner of the kitchen and shared their meals. After Huang Nanzhong came out, the family would send him a bowl. This night was dangerous and long. Everyone was tense and nervous for half the night. At this time, they snorted and slammed into their mouths. Some people stopped and cursed, some remembered the brothers who died earlier, and couldn't help it. shed tears. Huang Nan Center understands that if the man does not cry easily, it is not the sad part.
The tension, danger, and fear that night were difficult to sum up. People have imagined the scene many times before they started, there are successes and failures, but even if they fail, they will always end with a vigorous attitude. They have heard countless times in the past when Zhou Tong assassinated Zonghan. Once again, the Chengdu time has been swaggeringly brewing for more than a month, and countless people are talking about it.
Until the explosion last night, they heard the commotion in the first half of their patience, and their mood was also excited. But no one thought that it was their turn to play, but it was just a chaotic scene for a moment. They rushed forward, and they ran away quickly. Some saw their companions fall next to them, and some faced it in person. The wall-like shield formation of the Black Flag Army tried to make a move but failed to find an opportunity. Half of the people were even a little confused. Before they could get started, their companions in the front fled back with blood. If they didn't turn around and escape, they would also Not to be carried around and run around.
They don't know if other rioters are facing such a situation, but the fear of the night has not yet passed. Even if they find the military doctor's small courtyard for temporary hiding, it does not mean that they will be safe and sound. Once the Huaxia Army resolves the situation on the street, there will inevitably be a big search for those who have run away, and these people may not be able to leave the city... And the little military doctor is not necessarily credible...
After eating like this, everyone recalled the previous embarrassment and embarrassment, and then thought about the next situation and danger, the atmosphere in the yard was depressing for a while. The "Sizhou Killer Knife" Mao Hai was irritable and couldn't help but ask several times, "That kid surnamed Long didn't do anything, did he?"
"Do you want to go in and see more?"
"I don't think he can be trusted."
He babbled, and he couldn't help but go into the room twice, one of which obviously had a conflict with the little military doctor, the little military doctor shouted "if you have something, do it", but because of Huang Jianfei's protection, Mao Hai could only suppress it. Come out in anger.
Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying went to persuade him a few words: "What's the use of getting angry at this time?"
Mao Hai's eyes were red, and he said in a sullen voice: "My brother died, he rushed in front, and was hacked to death by the black flag gang of thieves... He was hacked to death in front of my eyes..."
His voice was so suppressed that Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying had no choice but to pat him on the shoulder: "The situation is undecided, the few righteous people in the room are still waiting for the little doctor to heal their wounds. After this hurdle, we can do whatever we want. There are so many of us. No one will die in vain.”
There are some small episodes like this. People are standing, sitting, or walking back and forth in the yard. Every trace of movement outside makes people nervous, and people who are sleeping will suddenly sit up from under the eaves.
The ugly time was about to end, the starlight in the yard became dim, and the first aid treatment in the room was temporarily completed. The small military doctor, Huang Jianfei, Qu Longjun and other talents came out from inside. Huang Jianfei went over to report the results of the first aid to the master: the lives of the five people have been saved, but what will happen next, we have to wait and see.
Seeing that there were people eating in the yard, the little military doctor also walked towards the wooden shed that served as the kitchen in the corner of the yard. Qu Longjun went to see the restless adoptive father, Wen Shoubin asked her to eat something, so she also walked over there, ready to get some water to wash her hands and face, and then see if she could eat something this night, She actually wanted to vomit for a long time.
When they got to the kitchen, the little military doctor was adding food in front of the stove, and a knifeman named Mao Hai was blocking the outside, trying to find fault. Seeing Qu Longjun coming over and wanting to go in, he made way and said, "Don't think that What a good thing this kid is, he will sell us sooner or later."
Qu Longjun obeyed, went in to get water, waited for the other party to leave with a bowl, and then wisely added two bowls of rice, and even though she could not eat some pickles for the time being, she did not forget to bring a bowl to each of Huang Jianfei and Huang Shan. .
At this time, the atmosphere in the yard made her feel scared.
A group of ferocious Jianghu people who licked blood with their knife wounds were more or less wounded, standing or sitting around the courtyard with a slight bloody aura. Looking at himself secretly.
The eyes that looked at the little military doctor were not kind, and there was bloodthirsty in his vigilance. The little military doctor was probably very afraid, but he just sat on the steps to eat and supported himself; as for the eyes that looked at her, she had seen many in the past, she understood What is the meaning in those eyes? In such a chaotic night, such eyes are even more dangerous to herself. She can only try her best to seek some kindness in front of people she knows a little more, and add food to Huang Jianfei and Huangshan. It's an act of self-defense under such fear.
Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying are the real core figures in this courtyard. They moved the stakes and were sitting under the eaves chatting with each other. Huang Jianfei and another Jianghu person were also beside them. The little military doctor beckoned: "Brother Long, come here."
While eating, the young man sat down on the steps under the eaves, Qu Longjun also came to deliver food to Huang Jianfei, and heard Huang Nanzhong ask: "Your name is Long Aotian, this name is very particular, very imposing and extraordinary. , you must have a good family in the past, and your parents have read books?"
Long Aotian grabbed the rice: "I haven't read much, my father is a doctor, and my mother is a farmer in the countryside."
"Oh? Then where did your name come from? You can't have such a big name elsewhere."
"Mr. Ning killed the emperor, so there are quite a few children named this in the Huaxia army over the years. I was reformed at the age of six, and there are people named Batian, Tulong, and Kingslayer in the next village."
"...That's it." Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying were stunned for a while, before nodding, Qu Longjun couldn't help laughing, and then turned to the room to deliver food to Huangshan.
Coming out of the room, Huang Nanzhong and others under the eaves were reasoning with the little military doctor.
"... Didn't you have some doubts in the house before, and now I will tell you what that Mr. Ning has done... "Guanzi" records, scholars, farmers, business, and industry are the four people, with scholars first, farmers second, and workers again , merchants are last, why are merchants ranked last? It’s not unreasonable, merchants value profit over righteousness, and they can’t be completely eliminated, but if there are too many, it will cause serious trouble…”
"Why?" the little military doctor interjected.
"Um?"
"Why does it become a big problem if it is too much?"
"He values profit over righteousness. If there are only interests in this world and there is justice, then how can we live in this world? Let me use an analogy and you will understand... It was in the eleventh year of Jinghan, and Qin Siyuan, the right minister, was still in power. , the world has suffered from floods and droughts, and there are food shortages in countless places. Now you Mr. Ning and the traitor are responsible for disaster relief... For disaster relief, the imperial court has allocated funds, but he is different. For personal gain, he mobilized various places Merchants, want to send out this national disaster money…”
"After this money was made, the power of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion spread all over the world, and even Cai Jing and Tong Guan at the time were unable to stop their sharpness. What did he do? He used the wealth of the country and the people to support himself. Soldiers, so during the first siege of Bianliang, only the right minister and his two sons had soldiers on hand who could fight and fight. Could it be a coincidence..."
"It's not like this..." The little military doctor frowned, unable to swallow his last bite.
Yan Ying on the side patted him on the shoulder: "Child, you are only fourteen years old. You grew up in the Black Flag Army. Could it be that someone will tell you the truth? You go out with us this time. When you go outside, you to know the truth.”
Long Aotian stared, unable to refute for a while.
Huang Nanzhong said: "Take the current situation as an example, Aotian, you grew up in the Black Flag Army, and you probably don't think there is anything wrong with the statement that the Black Flag Army values the contract. You would think that the Black Flag Army is willing to Open the door, you are willing to do business, and you are willing to sell food. You think it is expensive, so don't buy it. But in today's world, how many people can afford the things of the Black Flag Army? It is said that the door is opened, but it is actually closed. It's just like the disaster relief that year, when the price of food rose to 30 taels, there is also a price. The businessman said, if you think it is too expensive, you can not buy it... So don't you starve to death so many people? , the only person who can save the world is the righteousness in the heart..."
Yan Ying, who was on the side, said, "That Demon Ning always talks about rules when he does things, but it's actually all about business. Now, this time so many people want to kill him, not because he seems to have given others a way to go, but in reality, it's all about business. Is there no way to go? If you take his way, the people of the world will not be able to save... About this Ning Demon, Lin'an Wu Qimei Gong Gong has written a splendid article, detailing his four major sins in the Huaxia army: cruelty , cunning, crazy, tyrannical. Children, if you can go out, you have to read this article again and again."
Huang Nanzhong said slowly: "In addition, that Demon Ning has two fundamental mistakes, one is that he recklessly kills the monarch, so that there is no room for change, but he is so arrogant that he calls out Confucianism and laughs for the world. The study of things is a good thing, but because of what he has done, it cannot be generalized. There are also heroes in the Black Flag Army, but unfortunately, following this devil, we cannot reconcile with the world..."
He continued: "Just imagine, if this Demon Ning dies today or someday in the future, the Huaxia Army can become the Huaxia Army in the world, and many people are willing to interact with here, and the study of objects can be widely used. Promotion. In this world, the Han people don't have to kill each other, then... Rocket technology can be used in our Han army, and the Jurchen is nothing... But as long as he is there, as long as there is such a record of murdering the king, no matter what in this world, peace talks cannot be made. , how many people and how many innocent people will die because of this, they could have been saved."
When Huang Nanzhong said this, he sighed: "Unfortunately, this time, the Chengdu **** still fell into this devil's plan after all..."
He and Yan Ying were chatting here, and three warriors came over to listen. At this time, listening to him talk about the calculation, some people asked in doubt. Huang Nanzhong repeated the previous words again. Regarding the advance layout of the Huaxia Army, the public opinion on the assassination in the city may have been influenced by the careful work of the Huaxia Army and so on, and analyzed them one by one.
Huang Nanzhong said: "It is said that good fighters have no illustrious achievements, and the real kingship does not lie in killing. Chengdu is the territory of the Huaxia Army, and the Ning Demon could have been arranged to contain the chaos tonight, but Ning Demon has a bloodthirsty nature and is used to using killing and blood to wake others up. He just wants everyone to see how many people died tonight... But this kind of thing can't scare everyone, just watch it In the future, more righteous people will come to fight against him."
Next to Mao Haidao: "When he comes again in the future, I will kill this devil's family to avenge today's revenge..."
A chivalrous man with a side face wrapped in bandages said: "I heard that his family has six or seven wives, all of whom look like flowers... Chen said that Chen Yingxiong is the best at disguise, if he didn't want to assassinate the devil this time, but Going to assassinate some of his dead ghost wives and children, maybe he will succeed..."
"... Now that Chen Yingying is not dead, I think it is the retribution of the devil."
Someone said to the little military doctor next to him: "You know now? If you still have the slightest bit of humanity, then don't give me Mr. Ning, Mr. Changning short!"
Someone kicked him in the back, but he didn't use any force. The kick only caused his body to sway forward and said, "I'm sorry to see you as a black flag dog." The little military doctor turned his head back with fierce eyes. , Since the five wounded in the room still needed his photo, Huang Jianfei got up and pushed the other side away.
The crowd then continued to talk about the ferocity and brutality of Demon Ning. Some people stared at the little military doctor and continued to scold the little military doctor because he still had to save people.
Sitting in the yard, Qu Longjun was somewhat unbearable for this little military doctor who also had no strength to fight back and who had rescued people earlier. Wen Shoubin pulled her aside: "don't get too close to that kid, be careful he won't die today..."
Wen Shoubin's words contained a huge ominous aura, Qu Longjun blinked, and after a long time, he finally nodded silently. In such a situation, what can she do
The time had already come to Yin Shi while everyone was talking, and the light in the sky was even darker. Occasionally there was movement in the city, but the emotions of everyone in the courtyard finally calmed down a little after a while, and the time was about to enter the darkest part of the morning.
Qu Longjun leaned against the wall and dozed off. Occasionally, when someone walked around, she would wake up and look over for a while. The little military doctor was targeted twice again, once when he was deliberately pushed and shoved, once when he went into the room to check on the wounded, and was scolded by Mao Hai at the door.
The lights in the room were completely extinguished after the injury was treated, and there was no flame on the stove. , sitting there watching the faint sparks in the distant sky, how long will this long night be over? She was thinking about this matter in her heart. Many years ago, her father went out to fight and could not come back. She cried in the yard all night, watching the darkest night and the light of the day. She waited for her father to come back, but Father will never come back.
In the years after her father's death, she has traveled all the way and visited some places, and she has no positive expectations for the future. Being able to not stay in the Huaxia Army, it is good to take on the task of the detailed work, but when you go back, it is just to sell it to that big family as a concubine... This night's anxiety made her feel tired, and she was also frightened by this and that before. She was afraid of being killed by the Huaxia Army, and some people would be wild and do something to herself. But fortunately, the next period of time will be spent in peace, so don't be afraid of these...
She thought so.
At around two quarters of Yin Shi, Huang Nanzhong and Yan Ying sat on the wooden stakes, leaning against the wall to keep their spirits up, and occasionally chatted a few words without resting. Although mentally exhausted, according to previous speculations, there should be some perpetrators who would choose to take action at such a moment. The people in the yard did too. The people watching on the roof widened their eyes. Mao Hai walked over the eaves, holding his knife. Huangshan took a few breaths and went in again. If they can kill Ning Motou, what they have to meet next is the real dawn.
Dawn did not come.
The one who kicked the little military doctor Long Aotian earlier was a knight under Yan Ying's. After drinking water, he was walking under the eaves and had a face-to-face with the little military doctor who stood up. The knight was two heads taller than the other, and at this moment he was about to slam his body over, and the little military doctor also walked up.
In Qu Longjun's field of vision, she couldn't see what happened, and she didn't react at all. When the two touched their bodies, the knight made a "uh" sound and pressed his hands down sharply. He retreated, and his body collided with the pillar under the eaves.
Everyone looked over in amazement.
The next moment, the young man named Long Aotian waved his hands horizontally. The light of the knife, the blood, and the other's internal organs flew up in the night sky before dawn
