Unfortunately, even in the mud, even if there is any fragrance of flowers, it is covered with fishy smell.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered something, the fire that lit in Xuzhou County, and the burnt smell seemed to have revived in his nasal cavity again.

At that time, he was a grain transporter and saw the Qingzhou soldiers throwing the crying woman into the sea of ​​fire with their own eyes.

That was a woman like a little flower...

Li Laosi gently touched the petals with his hand, then retracted his hand as if he was scalded, then lowered his head and continued to move forward.

After a while, another black shadow came here on Li Laosi's footprints and grabbed the gap of the blue brick where the small flowers grew.

The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥Book⊥⊥⊥First⊥!

The rough and cracked hands pressed the young plant flat, but the shadow had no feeling at all, just moved forward.

...

...

Man Chong couldn't sleep, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while, then opened his eyes again and stared blankly at his temporary office and resting place.

Speaking of which, this place was once a magnificent place beyond the Han Dynasty Palace, but now it is in decline.

This is Situ's Mansion!

The great man Situ!

If it were still the past, even if Man Chong had the current identity, he would need to respectfully hand over a sign at the gatehouse to ask for a meeting, and then he could have a place to stand in this hall. Maybe he had a place, but it could not be confirmed yet. He would raise his butt and talk back and forth at any time...

But now, Man Chong was lying down like this, lying on his back, and no one said anything about him.

During that fire, the place was lucky to be burned to the point of being barren.

Later, even after Yang's renovation, it was still difficult to restore its former glory.

In front of the hall where Man Chong was, on the screen wall, the broken "Changle Weiyang" tiles could not be completely restored, not to mention the coiled dragon patterns that were originally supposed to be on the eaves, but now there are only some remaining bodies.

This is not the worst...

The worst is in the palace.

It once represented the highest glory and sacred place of the Han Dynasty. Now, it is simply terrible.

When the Xiliang soldiers retreated, they took away all the things they could take away, and even the gold foil on the lacquer pillars were not spared. The palace was even more damaged. The twelve main halls had turned into ashes.

Only a flower pond near the southeast corner has some beams and pillars left. Man Chong has visited it before.

The unburned beam was penetrated into the sky, and the marks of the clouds and thunder patterns were vaguely visible on the charred surface.

It was originally the "Tongtian Liang" named by Emperor Xiaoling, who was specially written by Emperor Xiaoling. It took ten years to transport the giant trees in the southern border from thousands of mountains and rivers to complete the carving. Now the giant beam is burned to pieces, and the amber resin burned deep in the cracks is like the giant beam is crying.

Not only is the precious things in the palace unrepairable, but even the canals of the streets that are not able to restore the old view.

The craftsman responsible for repairing the canals reported that these canals were manufactured by orders in the second year of Yongshou. Among them, the one used to grout bricks is Lishan green paste mud. Not only does it not dissipate in water or crack in the sun, but it also has good adhesion and can fit with the blue bricks and stone slabs. But now this material is not found at all. It can only be bonded with mortar mixed with wood ash, which can only last for a year and a half...

Man Chong looked up slightly and looked at the ceiling of the original Situ Mansion Hall. There were originally twenty-eight constellations drawn by the great craftsmen using the "Nine Dyeing Method". However, after rebuilding, the agility of the past disappeared, leaving only the dull star dots, not like stars, but more like gray-white insects crawling on it.

The city of Luoyang is full of decay and destruction, and the ruins are difficult to repair.

The children of Shandong gentry were disloyal and wanted to escape.

The morale of soldiers collapsed and the supplies were insufficient, so they had to make every effort to plan and design.

All kinds of fatigue made Man Chong's face look handsome, but before he knew it, his face was much haggard, and even there were many fine wrinkles on both sides of his eyes, as if he had been aged more than ten years ago in the past or two months.

Because Man Chong resolutely implemented the order that Cao Cao closed the border and did not allow the children of Shandong gentry to leave, he was often ridiculed and cursed by these Shandong gentry children in secret. Man Chong also ignored these things and just made arrangements silently.

But when it was late at night, he still thought about how it turned out like this?

Is Cao's army so vulnerable?

Compared to Na Fei Qianlai, what is the difference?

Man Chong has also thought about Fei Qian's rise.

The noble imperial power and gentry system of the Han Dynasty had already revealed its desolate nature in front of Fei Qian's cavalry army. But this proves that the governance system of the cavalry army can replace these brilliant achievements accumulated over the three or four hundred years of the Han Dynasty?

Just like the current Luoyang City, the Situ Mansion in front of you, the roaring cavalry army roared over, what can it bring?

Is it the huge beams with broken walls shed tears, or is it the century-old canal destroyed?

This fear of facing the future made Man Chong unable to believe in Fei Qian, the "alien".

Man Chong suddenly turned over and sat up because he heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from a distance...

...

...

Li Laosi suddenly stepped on something in the mud, and a chill suddenly burst out from his neck.

Because his straw sandals had been trapped in the mud before, he is now barefoot, but the cold mud in the spring night still makes his sense of touch a little dull, and he cannot detect what he has stepped on at the first time.

He bent down, reached into the mud, and groped.

What's this?

This is……

Wooden stakes!

A piece of collapsed wooden stake was tilted in the mud.

Perhaps it was not installed properly during installation, or perhaps it was because of the subsequent reasons that the wooden stake was tilted, so that the tip of the stake was not facing upward, so it could not penetrate Li Laosi's soles.

"What's wrong?"

The dark shadow following behind also stopped and asked in a low voice.

『Here...there are wooden stakes...』

Li Laosi noticed his voice and began to tremble in the night wind.

He should have thought of it long ago!

I have done this job before!

Sharpen the stake and insert it into the trap...

Here, here is a trap!

『Back, back!" Li Laosi was a little panicked, 『There are wooden stakes here! Wooden stakes here! This is a trap!』

He suddenly understood why the water gate of this section of the canal was not repaired!

The shadow that followed the follow-up also became panicked, but soon there was a disagreement. Several people felt that the water gate was in front of them, and escaping was a way out and they didn't want to look back. Li Laosi couldn't find more evidence to prove that this was indeed a trap.

Except for the crooked wooden stake in his hand...

"What if it fell down accidentally in other places?"

A black shadow asked.

"this……"

Li Laosi was not sure either.

"I won't go back!" A black shadow pushed Li Laosi away and replaced Li Laosi's front position. "We've all walked here! I'm going home! Go home!"

Li Laosi swallowed, and he wanted to go home too.

But……

Li Laosi lowered his head and looked at the wooden stake that had just been pulled out of the mud.

The black dirt remaining on the wooden stake is like dirty blood, and it is like the dead soul lingering.

Several black shadows passed Li Laosi and walked forward.

Li Laosi couldn't help but feel a little lucky in his heart, maybe...
Chapter completed!
