Chapter 24
Duer's father was a former military officer, and he was still a member of the Lan family army that envied others.Although his military rank is not high, he is just a Lieutenant of Baiqi, equivalent to a second lieutenant, but his income is very good.The family lived on the wages of Toure's father.
But three years ago, Duer's father went out with General Lan Feng, and there has been no news since then.Since then, the family had no source of income, and Duer's mother couldn't bear the hardship and ran away with others.Duer has lived with his grandmother since three years ago.
However, Duer's grandma became blind little by little in the past three years, and her legs were picked up a year ago because she wanted to buy some delicious food for her grandson, and because she picked up trash, she accidentally touched a passing car. A lady's clothes were discounted.
As for why the grandfather and grandson are always being bullied and ignored, it is because there are rumors that those Lan family soldiers who disappeared in the forest have become bandits.And this town was snatched by soldiers of unknown origin.The people who had no way to protect their own property at that time cruelly bullied the weak to calm down their emotions afterwards.
"Bandits?" Yoko was surprised to hear this, but this information was very new and useful to him.
"Hey..., I don't understand either. We were ordinary people in the town at the time, and we also experienced that robbery. It made me believe that it was done by the Lan family army. It is absolutely impossible. I absolutely don't believe it. The disciplined Lan The family army will do things like robbing ordinary people."
Although the old grandma spoke with righteous indignation, she still couldn't hide her sadness. She paused and continued: "Although I can't believe it, it is indeed true. They are all wearing the uniforms of the Royal Army. So many people..., and There is also General Lan Feng inside."
"Grandma, do you know General Lan Feng?" Liu Huang was surprised.
"Many years ago, I was lucky enough to meet the Lan family. Although their status is second only to the royal family, I remember that General Lan Feng was a simple and honest young man. Although he was a bit rash, he was definitely a pure and polite young man. Who knew... ..." The old grandma choked up a little and couldn't continue. "I really don't know why, he turned into such a terrifying murderer."
Liao Huang faintly felt that this incident was full of weirdness everywhere, and couldn't help frowning.
The narrow space blown by the autumn wind through the gaps in the coarse cloth has no warmth. The old grandma's already cracked hands gently patted the sleeping grandson gently.
At this time, Liuhuang knew what Doer was picking up those leaves for, it was his bed, and he picked up the leaves and spread them on the ground as a bed.
While Yaohuang was talking to the grandmother, Shirley, who was full, also found a comfortable position in Liuhuang's arms, curled up and fell asleep.
In the later conversation, Liaohuang also asked a lot about this small town, and about the Qiu family, the lord of Bugar.
Bugar has been bestowed on a family named Qiu since ancient times, and this story was even written into the "Biography of the Holy Spirit".Bugar is in the north of the royal capital, and the terrain is relatively high, mostly highland forest areas.Buchar City, the provincial capital of Buchar, is in the northern hilly area.
The red rocks are layered and winding, pieced together the beautiful scenery in the north of Bugar, the dense maple forest climbs the Luohui Mountains in the south of Bugar, and the Yuxi River runs straight down from the north of Lingfeng. Although it is weak like silk, it has been winding The flow has never stopped, and countless lakes have been created in the Bugar Mountain Forest and eventually flow into the sea.
From ancient times to the present, all Qixing people have a kind of fascination and longing for Bugar. This unreasonable and deep-rooted longing is related to countless myths and stories, related to the strange and extremely beautiful red stone rock formations, and temples. It is related to the Jiangshen Building, the historical site of its origin, and to many famous universities in the province.
Bucharh is almost regarded by people as the closest place to God. In Qixing's theological history and people's hearts, it is sacred and inviolable.
The Qiu family who ruled this mysterious land was naturally tainted with mystery.
The Qiu family, who acted in a low-key and mysterious manner, rarely appeared in public.But after all, the family has inherited the head of the six god priests, the star priest.So there must be someone who needs to represent the Qiu family to become an official.
The star priest of this generation is named Qiu Yu. Four years ago, he had just inherited this position, and the impression he left on the world was nothing but amazing.
His beauty has been discussed for a whole year by all Qixing people, men, women and children, covering up the limelight of all debut stars.After calming down, people would still be amazed at the god-like appearance of the second son of the Qiu family every time they saw him appear in public.
It was getting late, and the night was even cooler.Liaohuang bid farewell to the old lady, and walked back to the hotel thoughtfully.This small town is not far from the famous Advent Tower, and the blood moon on the slope reflects the bright dome and spire of the Advent Tower.
It is the sacrificial season now, but the streets of the town are eerily quiet.
Because Liaohuang kept frowning and thinking, Xiaoding and Jiade behind him could only slow down and follow boredly.
Xiao Ding held a bitter barnyard grass stalk in his mouth, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and tucked his neck into the collar of his warm black cloak, scanning the closed doors on both sides of the street.
Jiade chewed argan, which could replace the pungent taste of tobacco, and paid attention to the surrounding roofs.He wasn't that cold, he knocked down countless local drinkers during dinner, and he drank enough of the maple leaf double steamed wine, and now his whole body was hot, except for his sleeves, he wished he could roll up his trousers.
It is the habit of the two of them to pay attention to the movement around them while walking. This method of task assignment has almost become a habit in the bones of this pair of old partners. They don't need too many words to understand each other's intentions.
"Boss, people here rest very early. Besides, this street is too quiet." Xiao Ding looked around, and found that this street, which was still full of traffic during the day, is now extremely unusual, except for them. three people.
"Even the door of the young woman who is always watching by the windowsill is closed," Gard added.
Lie Huang raised his head suddenly, and the team of three people stopped suddenly, not because of the reminder of the followers, but because of the danger signal suddenly shaking in the shadows in front of the ramp.
With a sudden thought, dozens of figures with hoods quickly rushed to them.Xiao Ding and Jia De tensed their nerves immediately, as long as you give an order, they will do it.
But Yoshiaki didn't intend to do anything.
He calmly looked at the mysterious man directly opposite him, who was probably the leader of the dozen or so men in black. Although the man was within arm's length of Yoko, he was standing in the shadow of the tree, with a wide hood and black paint. The lacquered cloak covered the whole person impenetrably, like a ghost.
Liu Huang waited for the other party to speak, during this process, he did not move at all, not even moving his eyes.
The man's gaze hidden in the shadow of the hat probably finally ended his scrutiny, and the voice of the question was deliberately lowered, as if there were wisps of yin energy coming out of the ground.
"Who are you? Don't you know the curfew?"
"We are foreigners and want to go on a pilgrimage to the Holy City. Why is there a curfew here?" Liao Huang has never been a commoner, so he doesn't know how ordinary people should behave if they want to calm things down. At least they should smile humbly and never ask the first question Two words.
But he is partial, so there is no if.
The leader must be frowning, or has accumulated anger, because the men in black around him have already expressed their anger with shaking bodies.
"What are you asking! Since you are a stranger, hurry back to your place of residence and don't wander around in the streets at this time. God will harvest your souls away."
These people kept looking at Liao Huang and they returned to the hotel before leaving.After those people left, Yoko still laughed at the counter of the hotel because he couldn't help laughing.
In contrast to his good mood, the shopkeeper of the hotel was in a cold sweat from the shock just now. "Boss, you're back. I'm still worried that something will happen to you if you don't come back so late."
"What's the matter? There are a group of loyal beetles following." Akira smiled because he felt that he had just become an important food, surrounded by those beetles in black skins, and he must ensure that they entered the cave safely .
"Alas... you don't know, it's been very uneventful these days." The eight-character eyebrows under the old shopkeeper's lens looked even more sad because of a sigh.
"Children from many families sleepwalk and disappear in the middle of the night. When they come back after a while, they seem to be different people. That's not counting. A while ago, there were always female corpses appearing on the official road in the north. Those women died... how miserable ..."
These words stopped Yoko who had already started to go upstairs.This may be a strange murder incident, and has nothing to do with the rebellious Posse Should Party.
But his intuition can be against the sky, it may be the small voice mixed in the wind, which can give him inspiration that others don't have.
The deaths of those women, this strange curfew system, and the sleepwalking children must have something to do with that Posse party.
Because he has already started paying attention, he can naturally learn more from the shopkeeper.
But everything is still one-sided, except that after the implementation of the curfew system, there will always be the tooth-piercing sound of heavy metal rubbing against the red brick floor on the street in the middle of the night, and there will be many people on the street the next day. Blocks of soil lumps outside.The old shopkeeper couldn't provide any more information.
Once upon a time, some people were more daring, peeking out through the cracks in doors and windows.It is said that I saw the devil, and there was nothing on the half-length face, only a cold light.
There is a kind of people who will habitually die once they encounter doubts.The entire Qixing political puzzle is the big puzzle that Liaohuang is facing, and he must solve this puzzle before he can let it go.
The next day, three people and one beast finished their breakfast, and they were going to head north immediately according to the scheduled plan. This is the road pointed by Xiao Shirley. At least they must go to see the veiled holy city Bugar and the city’s that family.
On the official road that was about to reach Bugar, a child covered in plaster was running wildly, as if he was running away from something more terrifying than the devil.
The child just ran away, kept looking back, and didn't pay attention to what was in front of him, and just bumped into the flying box where Yihuang was.
Fortunately, this kind of transportation is very popular throughout Qixing, it is very easy to slow down, and there are no wheels, and the extremely short distance from the ground will not let people rush under the box because of the speed.
But the child was able to save a life, after all, it was because Jia De, who was manipulating, had quick eyesight and quick hands, stopped in time.
He closed his eyes and meditated in the comfortable box, and he almost turned into a shaken pastry, staggering and rolling out in some embarrassment. Fortunately, his reaction nerves are beyond ordinary people, and everyone will come When he landed face down and gnawed on the ground, he patted the railing outside the box door with one hand, turned around and stood on the ground very lightly.
The nose was bleeding from the hit, and the little mud ball sitting on the ground was Dole.
It was indeed a surprise to see Dole again so far north of Burroughs.
Dull was also surprised and stared at Yoshiaki with his still terrified eyes.
"Is someone chasing you?"
"Save grandma! Please, save grandma!"
Before Liaohuang's question was finished, Duer seemed to have seen the last god's residence in his life, frantically grabbing Liehuang's clothes, and kept begging.
