I thought that today’s happiness would last forever...

…

Three figures walked through the chaotic streets, heading in the direction of the old Wu Yamen, while looking for the location of the pen and ink.

However, most of the shops on the roadside were closed. Some people had their doors and windows broken open and flames were lit.

Shops that specialize in selling stationery have disappeared. In such a fair and chaotic world, how can anyone use Wenmo?

The corpses on the roadside were fresh.

Paper is also available.

The young monk pointed at the corpse and said:

"Otherwise, just write it in blood."

Xue Jin lay on the ground and began to write what he wanted to write on the paper with his hands stained with blood.

But what to write?

…

He thought of Yueniang who was the last to enter.

An ordinary girl in her brothel.

Ordinarily beautiful.

Ordinary talent and learning.

Unsurprisingly, it aroused the admiration of many people.

He is also unremarkably in love with a certain talented person from a poor family.

She is not the most popular girl in Jiangning, but it took Xue Jin a lot of trouble to win her closeness on the scene.

She wants to make money to redeem herself, and she also looks forward to the day when she can get rid of the life of entertaining people with laughter.

Xue Jin spent a lot of money to comb her hair for the first time.

She forced a smile on her face, and he felt happy. He had been hanging out in brothels for so many years, how could he not understand what the other person was thinking?

But gradually, he was able to stay at her place overnight.

Gradually, she gave up the hopes she had in the past. Xue Jin actually didn't want to know how many unparalleled experiences she had during this period.

He was very dignified in the scene, so he married her and entered the house. After entering the house, he gradually began to get tired of it all...

Jiangning was shaken by war disasters, and they sometimes left here to avoid disasters.

He also escaped the ravages of two rounds of Jurchens.

The Fair Party came and swept across the whole of Jiangnan. This time, people could not escape the disaster. They had seen the houses of large families being ransacked and their families exterminated, so they decided to surrender and wait for their fate.

In the first round of entry, someone in the family was killed and someone was raped, but not many people were affected. Troubled times have arrived, and people have to go through such suffering. However, in the following days, people came one after another,

Then he took them to the square, where a woman named "White Rakshasa" cried and accused them of the Xue family's evil deeds...

Stones came like rain, and people happily killed and robbed them. The still beautiful woman was dragged out. Yueniang was dragged into a nearby alley while screaming, and then she cried hoarsely and begged for mercy...

People say that the past was unfair...

Those people said, this is fair...

All sins will eventually face retribution...

His mind was buzzing...

The mist and rain in Jiangning in the past, the east wind in the prosperous age bloomed thousands of trees at night, and people's smiles bloomed in front of his eyes. Those are things he does not deserve. Is this why we fell into such a hell?

Yueniang survived. She was speechless and shivering in his arms. His voice was hoarse, his legs were lame, and his hands were broken. He held her gently under the bridge and looked at the misty rain outside. He went out.

To beg, he went out to collect firewood. Sometimes he was beaten and crawled back slowly with blood on his body. The scene under the bridge gradually changed, and the flowing river gradually became turbid and smelly.

I don’t know why, they still survive like cockroaches...

They cuddle together. Sometimes, Yueniang will look at him with wide eyes. What is she thinking when she looks at him? Have they ever had a time of love in the past? Have they ever had sincere trust?

Sometimes, she would open her eyes wide and look into the distance outside the bridge. What was she thinking about? Was she thinking about her longing as a girl? The agreement with the poor student, their love?

They sat side by side on the river embankment, wanting to watch the fireworks.

This city has never let go...

Living amidst blood and killing, living in a city that is gradually stinking, living among unclear hopes... He doesn't even know why he survived, let alone why Yueniang survived. She has a little bit of

Are you living a difficult life for him?

And she finally died.

When she died, she looked at him with wide eyes.

When she was in the brothel, the most attractive thing was her big eyes...

Yue Niang...are you my family?

You think of me as a family member a little bit...

He thought of these...

…

The bloody, trembling fingers were frozen in the air for a long time.

He wailed... finally...

He pressed down on the paper.

…

In the hustle and bustle of the city, people watching the excitement are still watching the excitement.

The masters who guard the streets everywhere use their superb martial arts to establish their reputation in front of people.

Occasionally, people who rushed to the barricade were hacked to death in a pool of blood, and eighteen weapons were used to pull out a flower in the air.

Several masters who were unwilling to be left alone sneaked in and were immediately killed.

The banner of the No. 1 man in the world is like a needle that calms the sea, suppressing the waves in the city.

Dozens of miles away on the Yangtze River, He Wen was on the deck of a vast fleet, heading for a distant place.

Xue Jin walked slowly and tremblingly towards an intersection on the south side.

His mouth was open with almost no teeth, and his eyes were covered with tears.

Among the bystanders around him, there were warriors with weapons and ordinary people watching. Some were speaking with indignation, while others were tremblingly waiting for things to change. He and the two teenagers watched on the roadside for a while.

"Is this the way to the Yamen..."

"Why don't you let me go..."

They wanted to understand the situation here, and Random, through some whispers, got most of it.

Some people who rushed up to complain were chopped to death among the corpses...

Xue Jin trembled and said goodbye to the two teenagers.

"Please my two benefactors... please leave me alone..."

They were silent for a long time, and finally nodded.

"One day, when I return to the southwest, I may see Ning Yi, who was beaten over the head by you. Is there anything you want me to say to him?"

The young man asked about it.

Xue Jin thought for a while and finally showed a slight smile.

"That Taoist priest recited two poems, but he lied to me." Xue Jin said, "I will... hope that he will have many children and grandchildren in his life, and will live a long and prosperous life. If you ask him... he must live a good life..."

"I will tell him..." The young man nodded, "From now on, I won't care about you anymore."

He said this and finally said: "If someone blocks the way, don't pass by."

"...Well." Xue Jin held the piece of paper in his hand and nodded with tears in his eyes.

…

It was already a quarter past noon in the morning, and the information from the Supervision Department had been dispersed throughout the city.

In the street square more than a mile south of the old Wu Yamen, people on the teahouse discovered an unusual target.

The young man separated from the young monk and walked to the door of the teahouse nearby.

A figure came down from upstairs. It was a delicate woman with a scar on her face. The young man approached her and called her: "Seventh Aunt."

"What's wrong?" The senior Chinese military officer, who had been called Xiao Qi in the past and returned to Jiangning after a long absence, smiled softly at him, "What happened to make you so confused that you want to throw yourself into a trap?"

Ning Ji looked around, and Hei Niu and others gradually appeared around, looking at him with a playful expression.

"Aunt Qi, I...I saw something, and I want to...get the same thing as you..."

The woman's eyes became calm, and then became serious: "What did you see?"
To be continued...
