Shen Ming sat in a daze among the sheep and horse walls, looking up at the city wall.

In the past five days, he lost his parents, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters, and his family business that he had earned after more than 20 years of hard work. He was left alone.

He is less than 40 years old, and he has grown nearly twenty years old in these days. Now he looks over 50 years old. Even if he is seen by his relatives and friends in the past, he is afraid he will not recognize him.

Losing the pillar of survival, he became decadent. Even the Khitans looked down on him and did not let him work as a coolie. Instead, they were driven to Tianmen Village with some old and weak people.

Before, Shen Ming was entangled in the brigade. I don’t know where he was running, but just stared at the people in front of him step by step. There were screams behind him, just like he heard in the village five days ago. Shen Ming didn’t dare to look back and walked all the way to the Hao River, and swam across the Hao River through the water.

He climbed up the bank of Haohe River with wet body, and there was a wall of sheep and horses in front of him. He was all old, weak, women and children, who were shocked and frightened. He ran for a while and swam. There were not many people who could have the strength to climb over, but in a daze, he was taller than an ordinary person, which made him easily climb over.

When I climbed over the wall, I heard someone shouting loudly from behind. Shen Ming looked back and saw that it was a thin man in his thirties. He had a package tied to his stomach. If the collar was not open, he would have thought he was a big belly with only fat belly.

This is what is surprising. These days, many people have escaped so much that they even left their children. They can still bring their own packages, and they are not afraid of finding out that the Liao people have privately kept their money and have their lives together.

Shin said that he didn't have the energy to laugh at his behavior of asking for money and not being alive, but just looked down at him numbly.

When he saw Shen Ming turn around, he was overjoyed and quickly shouted, "Grandpa, come and help."

Shen Ming was only in his thirties, and there were also people who called him grandpa in the past, but they were all children. This was the first time that people who were a few years younger than him were calling him like this.

Shen Ming stretched out his hand, but the man pushed the person next to him up, and then another one, and he held five or six people up one after another. When there were no one around him, he panted and climbed up the wall with the strength of Shen Ming and his companions who came up first.

The artillery shells kept flying overhead, some flew over from the Liao people, and some were fired from the city head. The fragments of the city wall hit by the shells flew everywhere, and there was a scream from time to time.

But after entering the Sheep and Horse Wall, they were far away from the Liao soldiers following behind, the crossbows and fire guns on the city wall, and they did not dare to keep approaching. Many people suddenly became soft after entering the Sheep and Horse Wall. The extreme tension at the moment of life and death had completely consumed their physical strength.

But after the man came up, he did not hide behind the sheep and horse wall. After thanking him, he turned around and turned to the sheep and horse wall and started pulling people up again.

He said while pulling, "I said, grandpa, and you guys, all come to help, at least one can be rescued."

Shen Ming walked over silently and pulled people up without saying a word. Almost all the other few came over, only two of them walked away in a dodge. The man spat and turned to save the person.

Shen Ming followed the man and saved more than a dozen people in one breath, including men, women, old and young. As long as he stretched out his hand, he pulled and pulled up.

After these people were pulled up, as long as they had some strength, they began to save people. Under their leadership, more and more people took action together and rescued those who had been on the embankment but could not cross the wall.

More and more people were rescued into the wall of sheep and horses, and more and more people were willing to contribute. In the end, there was no need to declare it.

He was leaning against the city wall now, looking at the sky buzzingly. Several people who were rescued by him came to thank him, but he had no reaction.

The passage inside the sheep and horse wall is for storing large livestock such as horses, pigs, cattle, and sheep. It can be used to turn around and almost two carriages can be used in parallel. But gradually, such a wide passage has been crowded with people. As long as those who climb the embankment have the strength to stretch out their hands, they are basically rescued. There are fewer and fewer people in the Hao River, and those who are still in the water have not moved for a long time.

I don’t know how many people were crowded in the wall of sheep and horses, and the posture of the statement also changed from sitting to squat, and then from squat to standing, and squeezing with people.

Thousands or tens of thousands? Shen Ming was not interested in caring much.

There was a commotion in the crowd at some point, and it came from both the north and south ends. There were many voices, I don’t know what they were shouting, but the crowd, who had already been unable to move, actually began to move again.

Shen Ming didn't care about all this, he just waited numbly for the crowd to take him away. The crowd let go bit by bit, and the thin man appeared again at this time, squeezed to Shen Ming's side, and smiled and showed his yellow teeth full of mouth, "Grandpa, let's go together, I said before that the city gate is open!"

The man screamed loudly, and more people heard it. At this time, an iron horn was extended from the top of the city and shouted loudly, "The south gate, the north gate is open, and the east gate is too. Go there quickly, the west gate will not open, and the Liaogou is going to call from the west."

The crowds in the entire west sheep and horse wall were moving faster now, some heading south, and some heading north, one after another.

Shen Ming followed him and the thin man followed him.

Shin Ming wanted to ask his name and where he was. He always felt that his tone was a little awkward, but this interest was like a little Mars flying in the air, which was extinguished in a blink of an eye.

What's the use of asking so many questions? Maybe you'll die if you turn around.

Suddenly, Shen Ming stopped, he turned his head and listened, and he had heard something just now.

After stopping, he could hear clearly, and a few extremely small crying sounds came from the other side of the sheep and horse wall.

Shin Ming hesitated for a moment, and the thin man next to him also looked at him strangely.

Shen Ming didn't want to care about it, so what's the point of being able to care about it? He couldn't even survive, so how could he have the energy to care for others? But he looked at the thin man, his body was not as good as his shoulders, but he was so thin, but he saved so many people.

Just now, the thin man's righteous act made Shen Ming's frozen heart inexplicably produce a little heat, "Wait for me." This is the first time Shen Ming has spoken in the past few days.

He immediately crossed the wall of sheep and horses, and a woman lay down right below, motionless, and did not react at all to the announcement.

The woman's hands reached towards the wall of sheep and horses, with only a small swaddle in her hands, which was carefully held and did not even touch the ground.

A small face was exposed in the cradle, which was sallow yellow. At first glance, you could tell that you had not eaten for several days and were so exhausted that you cried.

The woman was soaked all over and her hair was curled up behind her back, but there was no trace of soaking on the swaddle. Shen Ming's heart was touched, and he gently picked up the child from his mother's hand.

After changing seats, the little kid cried a little louder, but it was almost the same as the little cat's scream.

Holding the swaddle in his arms, Shen Ming squatted down, touched the woman's wrist, and immediately looked into her neck.

Shen Ming's expression became much more serious. He turned the woman over with force. His face was stained by the mud and stains, and he could not see clearly.

Shen Ming didn't look much, he rubbed his fingers against the wet clothes and placed them on the woman's nose, without any heat.

He sighed deeply and stood up.

He turned around and wanted to climb back to the wall of sheep and horses, but he found that he was holding the child in his arms and could not climb up at all.

At this time, a hand and a smiling face stretched out on the wall, "Grandpa, come up quickly."

After delaying for a while, the wall of sheep and horses had become empty at this time, and the crowd had gone away, and only a few people were still lying and sitting.

Shen Ming and the thin man quickly chased the crowd. The thin man asked while walking, "Grandpa, are you a doctor?"

"I can't count as a doctor, I can't even be a medical worker. I can only prescribe a few grass-head prescriptions." Shen Ming asked, "How did you know?"

"Just just saw you take your pulse, and after reading it, you know you must be a good player."

As the two of them said, they had already followed the crowd. Not far ahead was the South Gate City Gate. At the city gate, guns and cannons were scattering like beans, crackling, and the smoke scattered under the city gate.

The surroundings became crowded again, and Shen Ming tried hard to separate others and prevent the children in his arms from being squeezed. He slowly walked to the city gate.

Is it safe inside? He looked around and found that except behind him, there were towering city walls, and the city walls were full of Han people.

Shen Ming stood on tiptoe and looked forward, and all the heads were humans. Through the narrow door hole, he saw that there were people except the city walls. There were no streets, and no other buildings. Inside the city gate, the heads were as dense as an ant nest that had been stabbed open. I don’t know how many thousands of people were there.

Can you still squeeze in? He expressed deep suspicion, but in front of him, many people were trying hard to squeeze into it.

At this time, there was a harsh rattle. Shen Ming looked up and found that the gate above his head was falling.

The order at the city gate suddenly became chaotic, and whether those who entered or those who did not enter, they used more effort to rush into it.

Those who knew they could no longer squeeze in looked up and cried to the top to stop putting the city gate down.

But their voices seemed to be not heard at all. With the rattle of mechanical sounds, the gates that were isolated from the inside and outside fell without stopping. The refugees who were still outside the city squeezed in even more frantically until they reached the lowest point, and some people lay down and wanted to roll in, but their thighs were pressed down by the gate. The screams alarmed the city gate. The gate was slightly raised, and when the man pulled his legs back, the gate fell back with a bang.

Shen Ming looked at all this in a muffled manner. He had already fallen to the end and didn't expect to get in. But he wanted to say sorry to someone, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay." The thin man shook his head.

It was stated that the thin man's reaction was very strange, and he seemed to feel relieved.
