Eight(1/2)
The snow was endless, and thick snow had accumulated on the black soil! The clouds were pressed very low, and there was not much light even in the daytime! The wind slowly stopped, but the snow was still falling, and I don’t know when it would last! The girls found it fun, ran outside to play with the snow, and felt cold, and then returned to the fire inside to cook! Everyone’s faces and hands were frozen red, but they were still smiling happily!
Although the Hua Tuo Temple is dilapidated, it is very effective in such extreme weather. Only by saving people in so many dangers can it show its true value! However, it is still quite dangerous. After all, the snow is so heavy, and with more snow, it is easy to crush the top! Xiao Yi dared not be careless. Every time, he had to climb up from outside and knock down the snow! Of course, every time Miss Liu would come to help, and never complained about being tired!
The snow stopped after dawn the next day! The snow was too heavy, and although it was only the next day, there was also a waist-length snow! The white area around it was amazing! The clouds were still there, and there was no sunlight. The temperature was already very low. In just a few days, I was afraid it would not be cleaned! The girls felt interesting at first, but they were annoyed when they played a few more times. Apart from the snow, they didn’t know the way to go. The few people were trapped in this temple, but they were really amazing!
Although there are some foods, it will not last long to satisfy so many people! Therefore, the best way now is to sit still and consume less, and naturally eat less, so you can persist for a while!
It was really boring to stay here, but fortunately Tong Lu was there to pass the time by telling jokes! Of course, the few people were also planning their next action arrangements, and after the weather allowed, they would slowly find their way! Miss Liu was no longer so anxious. For Xiao Yi and the others, it was just a few days of leisure! Xiao Yi also knew that there would definitely be many difficulties in the future, but you had to prepare well!
For several days, the sun has not been able to come out, and occasionally snow will float for a while. Xiao Yi saw that the amount of snow outside has increased and it is not easy to deal with! Oh, if this continues, it is not easy to deal with. After all, most of the firewood has been burned and not much food is left. It will be difficult for one more day, and you have to make plans early!
It got dark again that day, there was no sign of warming up, and it was a little windy, and it looked so cold outside! Xiao Yi repaired the door again, and it would be much better!
Tong Lu shrank beside the fire and said tremblingly,
"Oh, this ghost weather really wants to freeze us to death?"
In fact, if you don’t bring these girls, Xiao Yi and the others will naturally not be afraid. Even if you walk on the snow, they will be quite experienced! But if you bring these young girls, there is no way to guarantee it!
Xiao Yi hesitated for a while, and still spoke,
"Girls, it's better to do this. After dawn, I will go out to explore the way alone. After finding aid, I will come back soon!"
Miss Liu said,
"This is also a solution, but it is too dangerous for Brother Xiaoyi to go out alone. It's better to let me take care of you together and take more care of each other!"
Tong Ludao,
"I said Miss Liu, this is not a joke! Brother Xiaoyi goes and comes back quickly, there is nothing to worry about! Besides, how can you ensure that you can handle it? Don't just drag it down! So, let's wait here with peace of mind!"
Miss Liu shut up, and the girls were looking at him, but finally nodded and listened to Tong Lu's words.
Seeing that it was already dark outside, Xiao Yi suddenly stood up and said softly,
"Someone!"
The girls were shocked, and Miss Liu also stood up, holding a knife that she picked up from the corpses in her hand!
Tong Lu asked weakly,
"Someone is really here?"
Xiao Yi shook his head and replied,
"Who knows!"
Just as he was about to deal with it, there was no sound outside. Xiao Yi felt something was wrong, so he slowly moved to the door and said,
"You guys are careful, I'll go out and have a look!"
Xiao Yi fired a torch to the door and moved the door panel away. The snow was too thick outside and fell in one go! He reached out and looked out. The wind and snow stopped, but it was still the same cold! Xiao Yi carefully identified that there was no sound when he heard the sound from before! Xiao Yi was very convinced that he heard someone walking just now, and the sound would never be made by animals like cows and horses! Xiao Yi looked back at everyone, nodded seriously, and then took a step forward and stepped into the snow!
It was too dark and the fire could not shine too far. Xiao Yi looked around but could not see any abnormality! Xiao Yi walked towards that side for a long time, but still saw nothing! There was only a white area nearby, and nothing else! Xiao Yi continued to move forward. The snow was too thick and it was really hard to walk, but he was very sure that the man was ahead and never moved for a moment! Xiao Yi's long stick stretched straight forward and slowly looked at it!
Not far away, Xiao Yi suddenly realized something was wrong. He saw a big pit in the snow not far away. It was obvious that something had come! Xiao Yi pointed at a long stick and said,
"Who, come out soon, otherwise I'm not polite!"
There was no response there. Xiao Yi moved forward a little further and a vague snow path appeared. Haha, looking at this, wasn’t someone coming just now! Xiao Yi asked again, but there was still no response, so he quickly moved forward to the next to the snow pit!
Xiao Yi stretched over the torch, hehe, there was a person lying in the snow pit. Xiao Yi was shocked and asked quickly,
"I saw you, get up quickly, otherwise don't blame my subordinates for showing mercy!"
That was true, but Xiao Yi asked a few more questions, but there was no response! Xiao Yi took a few steps forward, and the long stick had already stabbed the other party. He tried a few times, but there was still no response. It was really strange! Xiao Yi thought to himself, I don’t know how this person came back, and wanted to attack him?! However, with the stick in his hand, Xiao Yi was not worried, so he walked forward a few more steps! Xiao Yi’s long stick had already hit the other party, but he still did not respond when he found the person. Xiao Yi tried a few times, but it was still the same!
Yi was confused. The few times he stabbed him very hard, so how could ordinary people bear it? Is there something wrong? Xiao Yi leaned forward again and slapped the other person's back with his hand. Oh, this person's body is stiff, this is not something that can be pretended! Xiao Yi grabbed the other person's clothes and dragged it backwards! The man's body was extremely light. Even when he fell into the snow, Xiao Yi dragged him away without much effort! In a few strokes, he retreated outside the Hua Tuo Temple!
Xiao Yi shouted,
"Lu Lu, come and help, someone is frozen!"
Tong Lu did not come, but Miss Liu appeared in front of Xiao Yi! Miss Liu was shocked when she saw Xiao Yi dragging someone. However, after she saw that the man was dressed clearly, she came to help.
"Brother Xiao Yi, who is this?"
Miss Liu asked this question, but how could Xiao Yi be able to answer, so Xiao Yi did not reply to him and carried the man back with him! He went to the fire and tried again, his life was saved! Fortunately, the sound of this man's last movement was heard by Xiao Yi, so he could save his life!
Everyone surrounded this man and stared at him! Haha, this guy looked very thin and looked very old. I'm afraid he was in his fifties and sixties! He had gray hair, half of his beard, and his face was so blue. He should have been frozen! What's shocking is that this guy was only wearing a thin dress and walking in the snow, of course he couldn't hold on! His body was already purple, but under the scorching fire, his color slowly returned to his face! This guy was a poor old man, and everyone was happy that he could survive!
Tong Lu suddenly screamed,
"He moved, he moved!"'
Xiao Yi looked carefully and saw that the man's fingers moved. Soon, the man coughed lightly and his body began to move! After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up when he saw the things in front of him! The man's eyes were very small, and when he saw everyone, he was shocked. He looked around and said,
"You, who are you, who are you?!"
Tong Lu raised his waist and said with a smile
"Who are you? We still want to ask you!"
The man was very embarrassed and twisted into a twisted look! He slowed down again, and then said,
"I, I am Huazhi, you, who are you?"
The old man looked unhappy, and Xiao Yi also thought his speech was unreliable! Tong Lu kept laughing and said,
"Hey, Hua? Could it be that you are still the descendants of Hua Tuo?"
The old man suddenly jumped up again, but his legs and feet were already frostbite, and he quickly fell to the ground again! His face was full of anger and said,
"You, how come you are here?!"
Tong Lu raised his lips and replied,
"We? If we are not here, you will be frozen to death!"
The old man said again,
"I have the blessing of my ancestors, so I will naturally not die!"
Tong Lu laughed and said,
"That's better. Let's carry you out and ask you to climb slowly by yourself!"
The old man is not so aggressive.
"You guys, who are you!"
Tong Lu shook his head helplessly and replied to him,
"Aren't we just passing by here and encountering heavy snow, so we are trapped by passers-by here!"
The man asked again,
"Really? Really passers-by?"
Tong Lu replied,
"Why do you guys have so many questions? If you tell me that you are a passerby, you are a passerby!"
The old man looked at the girls again, and then believed what Tong Lu said,
"Oh So that's it, it's very heavy!"
Miss Liu suddenly asked him
"Old man, do you often come to this Huatuo Temple?!"
When the old man heard this, his emotions became uncontrollable! He cried like a child, and no one could do anything to speak. Everyone was surprised and could only wait for him to finish crying! The old man cried for more than half an hour before he wiped his tears. However, his clothes were soaked again, as if he had cried out all the moisture in his body! After resting, he still couldn't help sobbing. It seemed that he was so sad!
Everyone looked at him, and he finally stopped crying, took a few deep breaths, and said slowly,
"Yes, my surname is Hua and my name is Hua Zhi. Almost everyone in this area recognizes me! Ten years ago, everyone loved me and would smile whenever they saw me! But later, the celestial phenomena changed and the plague was prevalent, and no one gave me a good face! I once asked many people, but they scoffed at me! I was also trying to save people, so why did they save me like this?! Later, I realized that they all felt that my ancestors did not protect them. They built temples for him and did not receive the protection they deserved. Therefore, they attributed everything to this, and I became alone in guarding the Hua Tuo Temple!"
Tong Lu asked,
"Master Hua, as you said, you were the guardian of this Huatuo Temple?!"
Old Man Hua was a little displeased and replied to him,
"Once? I used to be, now, until I die, I am the guardian of this Huatuo Temple!"
Tong Lu said oh, and said again,
"That's the case, why don't we see you when we come here?!"
Old Man Hua looked behind Tong Lu, and Xiao Yi also saw that he was looking at the stone statue of Hua Tuo, revealing his emotions from his eyes, but he couldn't deceive people! He heard him again,
"I grew up here since I was a child, and I was so familiar with everything here that I could not be familiar with it! Ten years ago, people often came to worship and burn incense in Huatuo Temple, but suddenly, plagues occurred in the nearby villages almost at the same time! This plague took thousands of lives far and near! Although many doctors risked their lives to support, the government blocked all over the place, and few people could come. The number of this malice was limited and they could not save it at all! In the end, only hundreds of people survived! It was precisely because of this plague that no one wanted to come to Huatuo Temple! What is strange is that with the epidemic, the land here gradually turned black without any warning! People were very scared, so they looked for it one after another.
Come to the door! As the successor of Hua Tuo, of course I would not let them say anything wrong with their ancestors, so the two sides had a conflict! However, I was only alone in my power, how could I resist it! I watched them push the statue down and kick the door out of my way, and I could only cry and couldn't do anything! After they vented, they came to hit me again! I couldn't bear it and begged for mercy, but they were unwilling to stop! I felt that I was going to be beaten to death by them, and out of instinct, I stretched out my hand to scratch it, but who knew I had grasped the hatchet I used to use! I made up my mind and used all my strength to chop it straight onto one person! You believe me, I just wanted to scare them away and tell them not to hit me again! I didn't even think about taking their lives!"
Everyone had guessed what was going on. The old man must have hit a man, and that man died because of him!
No one said anything, and he heard him again
"Woo, this time, it was just chopping the other party's neck. Although the hatchet was not sharp enough, it used enough strength to cut off half of the man's neck! The blood sprayed everywhere, which also made my face full of my face! I was shocked. I never thought I would kill someone, and his companions shouted and made noise when they saw this scene! They were also frightened and ran away quickly! When they came back with the official officer, I was still staring at the man! Haha, hehe, I became the murderer, and the only thing waiting for me was to trade my life! However, at that time, the emperor happened to come over to inspect and happened to encounter my case. Out of sympathy, the government exempted me from the death penalty and was sentenced to ten years in prison!"
Tong Lu asked, staring at the boss with his eyes wide open,
"So, you came back from jail just now?!"
