Most of the head is deformed and sunken, and the exploded eyeballs hang outside the eye sockets. It looks very scary. If the maid was here and took a closer look, she might be able to recognize some residual familiarity. Isn't the owner of this head the same person? A messenger?
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud and long whale chant sounded in the sky.
But in a blink of an eye, the shadow of a giant humpback whale quietly appeared in the sky. In the blink of an eye, it turned from transparent to solid, and the flippers of the humpback whale were seen swinging gracefully in the water waves, just in time to block more falling boulders. See The maid stared at this scene for a long time, lying in the ruins and forgetting to move. Until she heard a scream from the crowded refugee group: "My son——"
"Please save my son——"
"Stop pushing!"
The woman's shrill voice was quickly swallowed up by the noisy environment.
The maid endured the discomfort and took a look at the sound.
Just one look made his limbs weak with fear.
A woman was pushed forward by the crowd, her hands desperately trying to grab a child not far away. Looking at the child again, he was not old, still looking like a teenager. In the face of the chaos of the war, he did not cry or make a fuss, or even make a fuss. Give the woman some response.
The child couldn't respond either.
The entire face was bruised and bruised, with bleeding from all the orifices. The outstretched hand was raised high in a twisted and weird posture. The corpse moved forward with the slowly squirming crowd, rising and falling. Until the explosion happened again and the crowd came again. After squeezing in panic, the boy completely "sinked" and was trampled to pulp by countless pairs of feet.
A good living person was pushed and squeezed to death.
There were also refugees in the crowd shouting "Stop crowding", but with little effect. The screams were continuous and everyone was trying to escape in a panic. They tried their best to push the crowd forward with both hands, hoping to go faster, for fear of being slower. Just throw your life away.
The maid took a breath and gritted her teeth before getting up.
"These thieves..."
She could finally see that the weird big fish in the sky was blocking the boulders thrown in by the catapults. She didn't know how long it could hold up. If it couldn't hold on, and the rocks hit the crowd directly, no one here would survive! I hate it so much. Crazy thoughts came to mind.
It wasn't the first time she had to run for her life in the flames of war, nor was it the first time she faced chaos, but it was the first time she saw rebellious officials attacking the city and targeting the fleeing people. This was even more hateful than massacres in the city!
Warlords massacre cities mostly for the sake of wealth, and murder is the second priority.
The scene in front of me is about killing people.
How could unarmed ordinary people withstand such an attack?
The maid ignored her hatred and wiped away the blood mixed with sediment near her eyes with the back of her hand. She endured the severe pain and tried to move her body. The strong desire to survive made her temporarily forget the severe pain. The blood in her whole body was boiling, and there was only one thought in her mind. ——Stay alive!
but--
Can she really survive?
The number of boulders in the sky has obviously increased, and the coverage area has expanded. The weird big fish alone cannot completely block it. A "fish that slipped through the net" happened to land a few feet away from her, and the morale attached to the surface of the boulder was in contact with the ground. It exploded instantly, and a strong wave of air blew her backwards. When the maid regained consciousness, she desperately found that she could not move her right leg at all.
At this moment, she wished she had a knife in her hand.
If you chop it down with a knife and break off your legs, you may still be able to survive.
"I, I just want to live..." The maid saw another boulder about to fall from the gap in the ruins above, and endless despair filled her heart. The light and shadow of the first half of her life flashed rapidly in front of her eyes, and finally turned into a whisper, "Mom——"
Bang——
The explosion was deafening.
His consciousness did not fall into the expected darkness.
The strong white light penetrated the gap, stinging her so much that she could hardly open her eyes.
In a daze, she seemed to see in the white light that the surface of the boulder was covered with cracks, and was torn apart and crushed into powder. The strong light caused her to be temporarily blind, and her vision was completely white. When other colors appeared in her field of vision again, she saw a
The blade of the sword penetrated the gap in the ruins and flew upwards, and the "prison" that trapped her was opened. The owner holding the sword tightly had a pretty face.
The other party asked her: "Can you get up?"
The maid shook her head instinctively: "If you can't get up, my..."
A collapsed stone wall pinned her right leg.
Even if she pushed the wall away, her legs were crushed into pieces and would never recover. She couldn't survive this kind of injury.
The maid saw the other party's dark pupils move a little.
His eyes fell to his injured leg, as if he was thinking.
The maid did not dare to guess what the other party was thinking at the moment - be kind and give her a sword to make her departure less painful; be cruel and leave her to wait for death. It seems inhumane, but in fact it is very common on the battlefield. Don't
Even if she is a commoner, even if the soldier is so seriously injured, Pao Ze will choose to abandon her because this is the best solution.
She understood, but she didn't want to die like this.
The maid stretched out her weak right hand, and her palm touched the cold metal on the opponent's boots. This coldness made her wake up a little bit after losing too much blood and her consciousness gradually blurred. She didn't know what she said: "Mom... help
Me, save me..."
In a trance, I seemed to really smell the fragrance of my mother.
Her mother gave her a life when she was born, and gave her another life when she fled from the city...
"Go to sleep, it will be over when you wake up."
A familiar voice has the power to soothe people's hearts.
The biting cold wind turned into a warm and gentle wind in an instant, covering her whole body. She couldn't help but loosen her tense heartstrings, and endless sleepiness rushed towards her. The warm sea water shook her from east to west, and from south to south.
Bei, there was a soft murmuring in my ears.
In a trance, it seems that I have returned to that hot childhood.
She curled up, with a thin quilt covering her belly, and her head resting on her mother's skinny legs. She didn't sleep well, and occasionally she wanted to roll off her legs, but there would always be a dry and warm hand to hold her back.
Face, let her move back to where she was.
Youyou shook the cattail leaf fan to dispel the scorching heat for her.
"Mama, this is under control for the time being."
The crowd was really difficult to control. Gong Xiqiu simply used his own power to directly suppress the crowd so that they could no longer push forward. The arriving soldiers had already begun to disperse the crowd. The fleeing people did not recognize the uniforms of the guards and thought they were coming.
They were city guards. In order not to cause greater panic, they had no choice but to acquiesce.
We can't let the common people know that they are the ones attacking the city.
Isn’t that scary to death?
"Yes, yes, folks, don't panic..."
"Yes, all the bandits have been blocked outside the city..."
"Our general is so brave and brave that no enemy can match him?"
Perhaps these shouts had an effect, or perhaps the earthquake and explosion had faded away, or perhaps there were no more boulders falling from the sky. The crowd was finally calmed down and began to cooperate with the soldiers' command. Shen Tang took a look from the heights of the ruins. In the dark sea of people below, the suffocating feeling in my heart was finally relieved.
She asked Gong Xiqiu: "Is the guard dead?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "He committed suicide when he was caught."
Shen Tang sneered: "He died quickly!"
When he received the box of corrupted heads, the morale of the army was high, and Shen Tang directly raised the table and attacked the city. Although the defenders in the city had the advantage of being high in the city and deep in the city, they could not withstand the high force value on Shen Tang's side, and the city wall barrier did not last long. The response was shattered. Shen Tang and others directly went to the city to fight and cut down the flag. The enemy resisted and found that they could not defeat them, so they ordered the catapults in the city to turn around.
"The deputy general caught him. He is afraid of death."
When he was caught, he kept shouting that he was wronged and said that the direction of the catapult was changed by the envoy from the royal court.
Gong Xiqiu asked where the messenger was now.
The lieutenant general said that the envoy created chaos to contain the situation and ran away. However, the lieutenant general also revealed that the envoy was a eunuch who was used by the leader of Qi State and was a eunuch warrior.
If you arrest people based on this characteristic, you should still be able to catch them.
"A eunuch? Rare."
"Yes, it is indeed rare."
The courageous warriors have great personal strength, and their talent can be seen at a young age. The possibility of becoming an eunuch is extremely low. The royal court does not want to raise bombs that can retaliate at any time, so it will carefully select the servants who serve in the inner court. They must be without talent. Only poor boys can purify themselves. Occasionally, fish slip through the net, and they are not very talented. The martial arts they cultivate can only make people stronger.
However, there are always exceptions to everything.
The Messenger is obviously one of them.
According to the captured lieutenant, the envoy was a seventh-class official and one of the confidants of the leader of Qi State. Over the years, he helped the leader to extort money and was promoted to a noble title step by step. He usually liked to wield power, wasted no time on human life, and killed many people in Qi State. Loyal ministers and righteous men of the country.
"Catch him back and strip him naked."
Shen Tang decided this person's life and death in a few words.
"Okay, Ling Chi! Mama, who is this person you are holding?" Gong Xiqiu saw Shen Tang holding something in one hand from a distance. He took a closer look and confirmed that it was a woman with a broken right leg.
The wound on the right leg is as neat as a mirror.
Judging from the remaining martial energy, we can tell who cut it.
The woman's facial features were covered with sand and blood, making her original appearance unrecognizable. Gong Xiqiu thought she was an acquaintance of Shen Tang, and even when he was in a coma, he did not forget to move closer to the latter's arms and would not let go.
"I don't know him, he's a refugee."
"Refugees? Is there any special place?" The entire inner city was in chaos. There were countless refugees waiting for rescue buried under the ruins. How could Mama come here to save a refugee alone? With her temperament, it was more likely that she would save which one. Bar?
Shen Tang: "...you are quite wordy."
Gong Xiqiu's eyes widened a bit: "...Mama?"
Shen Tang sighed: "That's the sound."
She heard someone shouting "Mama" in the ruins, and when she rescued the person, she discovered that it was not "Mama" but "Mom."
"Speaking of which, Gongxi Qiu, I don't seem to have asked you why the Gongxi clan calls young women 'Mama'?"
This question is actually a bit boring and inappropriate.
But Gong Xiqiu always responded to her requests - well, there was no room for negotiation other than burying her back in the coffin.
He pointed to his mouth, opened his mouth, and made the mouth shape of "mama": "This is very simple. When a baby is just born, he is very fragile and cannot express his needs in words. He can only pronounce 'mama' naturally. As long as he shouts, the baby's heart will be at peace, and he will be free from hunger and discomfort. Our ancestors prayed to God in difficult situations, and God responded. Isn't it a kind of love and care?"
"So... you are actually calling God Mother?"
Every time he calls "mama" it's his mother?
Shen Tang knew for the first time that she wanted to be a mother for many years.
Gong Xiqiu was greatly shocked and surprised that Mama's understanding ability was even more amazing than his: "How could it be possible? Mama is a god."
Mama, in the Gongxi tribe, means god. It is used to call young women because they have the ability to create life. In the language of the Gongxi tribe, young women are mortal gods trapped in the flesh. He thought Mama You know this.
Shen Tang: "..."
The meanings understood by the two people are indeed very different.
Gong Xiqiu came closer and said quietly: "Didn't Mama realize that I don't call everyone 'Mama'..."
This word is an honorific and refers to "god".
Of course not just anyone can abuse it.
Shen Tang: "..."
She recalled it carefully and found that it was really like this.
Gong Xiqiu mostly addressed Bai Su and the others by their professional titles. Those without professional titles were called "Nv Jun", "Girl", "Nv Niang", or by their first and last names. At that time, I thought Gong Xiqiu was selectively following the local customs, but I didn't expect that. People can actually tell the difference clearly.
"...Why does the high priest never shout?"
Gong Xiqiu would change his name to "Your Highness" in public situations, such as when discussing official matters. At other times, he would go his own way. Jimo Qiu always used "Your Highness". Is there any point in this?
Gong Xiqiu found this question puzzling.
"My eldest brother is the high priest, a divine servant who serves God in a legitimate manner. He can call you His Highness directly. Why does he use pronouns?"
Shen Tang: "...I don't really understand the difference between the two."
Gong Xiqiu gave an inappropriate chestnut.
"This is like the secular world. The main wife can legitimately call her husband "husband", but the concubines cannot, and their status is lacking."
Shen Tang held back a comment for a long time.
"...Your metaphor is too inappropriate!"
To put it another way, what kind of winter-burning combination is this???
Gong Xiqiu obviously did not fully understand Shen Tang's point: "Isn't this a good metaphor? But in the secular world, there is no girl who has one girl and two husbands and let the two husbands divide the size... He said what Brother Hexin said... Their example Not an exact match.”
all in all--
"I just lacked the status of a high priest." He pursed his lips and once again expressed his dissatisfaction, "I still don't understand why God likes the eldest brother more than me. We look alike, and we are older. He is younger and can speak better than him."
If the high priest had chosen him back then...
He is definitely the best dancer among all the high priests!
"He was born first? I would say that with a grain of salt."
Gong Xiqiu owes this mouth...
If he hadn't been strong, he would have been killed long ago.
Shen Tang handed the rescued woman to the wounded soldier camp, and then encountered a problem - the woman held on to her sleeve and refused to let go. Between cutting off her sleeves and taking off her clothes, Shen Tang chose the latter.
Take off your coat and be free again.
Before leaving, I did not forget to tell the military doctor on duty in this tent: "I cut off her leg. When she wakes up, remember to tell her that there is still a chance that the leg will grow back and let her recover well."
Only when you recover from your injuries can you have a chance to be as healthy as before.
