Plane Small Bookstore [System]

The sun had already set on the edge of the river embankment in the west, and the sky fell into a turbid day and night. The late-returning crows made hoarse calls and disappeared into the silent and deep forest in the distance.The hazy night cast a shadow on the forest, which looked terrifying and gloomy like a wild beast with claws and claws.

Sophia's face was pale, but she stumbled towards the forest even though she was frightened.

This forest is called the Devil's Forest by the locals. My mother said that there are man-eating devils living in the forest, so Sophia, like other children in the village, dared not step into the forest since she was a child.

But Sophia was at a loss.

"You can't get away, you monster! Bastard!"

"Burn that wicked witch!"

"Go to hell witch! God will never forgive you!"

Angry cursing was chasing after her, and it was hard to imagine that those who said these words were the kind and amiable villagers who usually treated her.

Some of them are the uncle next door who farms the land with her father, some are the village aunts who wash clothes with her mother, and even Linda's best friend Marlena.

But now they are chasing after her ferociously, wishing they could crush her to ashes.

After the death of her father, the life of her and her mother has become more difficult. Years of famines have left the field with no harvest for several years. In order to feed her, her mother can only entertain the men in the village at night.Mom works very hard, and sometimes even has to entertain more than a dozen people in one night.She is too young now, she is only nine years old, and when she is a little older, she can help her mother, and her mother will not have to be so tired.

But before that day came, the women of the village suddenly rushed into her house and tied her mother and her. They said that her mother was a licentious witch who cast a spell to kill her husband and bewitched her. The men in the village, and she, the daughter of a witch, is the future Wicked Witch, so they should all be judged and purged at the stake!

She was stunned!

They lie!

Mom didn't kill Dad!Dad died of illness!And my mother is so kind and gentle, how could she be a witch!

They are a bunch of bad women!They want to kill mom!

She wanted to refute, but those people blocked her mouth, and then she saw those people took away the crying and struggling mother.

In the end, Uncle Jack, who often visited her mother, secretly helped her untie the rope and let her run as far as possible.

She doesn't want to, she wants to find her mother!

Uncle Jack said that her mother told her to find a place to hide first, and she would come to her in a few days.

Uncle Jack used to help his mother with work, and he was a good friend of her mother, so Sophia decided to trust him.

She ran out, but was soon spotted by the villagers, who chased her closely.

She's too young to be caught by them soon.She promised her mother that she would hide and wait for her. How sad it would be if her mother could not find her.

So she gritted her teeth, ignored her mother's previous warnings, and ran to the terrible forest.

The moment she stepped into the forest, she thought to herself: She is so small and doesn't have much meat on her body. If Mr. Devil is hungry, he can eat those people behind. They have more meat and they are more evil.

The tree man who was talking to Le Jing suddenly fell silent, and he tilted his ears as if he was listening to something.

"What's wrong?" Lejing asked.

"A human... came in." The tree man listened for a while, and said seriously: "The tree over there... told me that a group of humans... are chasing a...human cub."

"Oh, they call... that child... a witch, and that girl... doesn't have... magic power." The tree man said contemptuously, "They... are always so... stupid, and they said they would... burn the witch to death, but in the end... they... Those who are sent to the gallows are mostly... ordinary people without magical powers."

Le Jing frowned in disgust: "can you tell me where she is?"

"You want...to save her?" The tree man looked at him disapprovingly, "Maybe it's...a trap, human beings are...very scheming."

Le Jing smiled helplessly, and looked at the tree man's eyes, which were like a clear blue sky, clean and clear: "After all, it is an innocent life. My conscience can't do nothing."

Even if this is no longer his world, the ignorance and madness of human beings are the same.Familiar with history, he knew too well what would happen to the poor girl when she was caught.If she simply admits that she is a "witch", the judge will "mercifully" sentence her to be burned or hanged.If she doesn't admit it, what awaits her is brutal torture until she confesses.

This is the dark age of human civilization. Under the advocacy of public opinion, everyone tore away their rationality, exposed their ugly and ferocious animal nature, and persecuted their compatriots inhumanely.Such things are by no means isolated in the history of human civilization, but have been staged one after another.Among them are the Yangzhou Ten-Day Jiading Three Massacres in the Qing Dynasty, and outside there is Hitler's genocidal policy, and so on.

No wonder some people feel that human beings are the only race in nature that can kill each other.

Since Le Jing is the only sober person in this crazy era, he has to take responsibility.If he chooses to stand by, what is the difference between him and those crazy and cruel humans?

So he wants to save her.

Sophia curled up in the bushes and shivered, the noisy human voices were getting closer and closer to her, and she even heard a dog barking!She just accidentally fell and twisted her foot, and now she can't walk anymore.

She hugged her knees tightly, tears of fear swirling in the circles of her eyes.

She knew what happened to a captured witch, she had seen it firsthand.It was a beautiful woman. To be honest, Sophia couldn't tell the difference between this 'witch' and ordinary people.But the pastor of the church said she was an evil witch, and then burned her in public.Sophia can still remember the crackling of the flames and the screaming and begging of the woman, which have been nightmares for countless nights.

She hasn't had time to grow up yet, and she doesn't want to die.

Finally, the human voice was getting closer, and she closed her eyes in fear, waiting for the great misfortune that was about to befall her.

At this moment, she felt something cold and soft wrapped around her, just like the rope that tied her before.

She opened her eyes in horror and subconsciously wanted to scream, but a few green soft "ropes" immediately blocked her mouth tightly, making her unable to make any sound.

The "rope" was like a living thing, pulling her to the fork above the tree before those adults found her, and the dense leaves blocked her tightly, successfully blocking the eyes of those people.

The dog wandered around the bushes where she had just stayed, but found nothing in the end.Sophia heard the dog owner scold a few times, and led the dog away.

Sophia squatted on the tree branch, still a little dazed.She has now discovered that it is not the rope that binds her, but the vines.

The vine Sophia that swims like a snake has never been heard before.

Could it be that this is a trick of the devil?

In a daze, the vines sent her back to the ground, and a hand as white as jade with slender fingers stretched out in front of Sophia, "Are you okay?"

The voice is warm and clear, indescribably pleasant.

Sophia sat on the ground and raised her head in shock, and she saw an oriental man with black hair and black eyes.

His facial features are exquisite and delicate, his skin is so white that it seems to be shining, his teeth are white and neat, his hands are free of any calluses, his body is slender, and he is elegant, one can tell that he is a high-class person.Even the most powerful lord is not as noble as he looks!Sophia dared to say that he must be a greater figure than the lord.

But such a big man stretched out his hand to her, and asked her kindly: "Are you okay?"

Sophia didn't dare to hand her dirty hands up, she got up flattered and stammered, "I, I'm fine, thank you, my lord."

The big man laughed, like ice water first melting, flowing through the deep canyon, meeting flowers, and a spring came, "Don't call me a big man, I'm not a great person. My name is Lejing, I'm a An oriental traveler here." He knelt down, aligned his eyes with Sophia, and extended his hand to her again, "Can this little lady tell me your name?" With a serious attitude, as if she wasn't a farmer's A daughter, but a young lady of a noble family.

"My name is Sophia." Sophia replied in a low voice, she hesitated for a moment, tentatively handed her dirty hand to the lord, and was ready for him to avoid it in disgust.

Unexpectedly, this adult calmly took the dusty and bruised little hand, and gave her a hand-kissing ceremony without changing his face, looking at her eyes full of pity: "Nice to meet you, Miss Sophia!" .”

Sophia blushed slowly, and she even heard the beating of her heart.

In her short life, it was the first time that she was treated with such pity.

In her little head, a little "dream" suddenly appeared.

She is 9 years old this year, and she will be able to get married in three years. It would be great if she could become the mistress of this adult at that time.

The author has something to say:

①The Three Massacres of Jiading in Yangzhou Ten Days: The "feat" of slaughtering the city when the Qing soldiers entered the customs.I am a hardcore clean and black man, I believe in the most reasonable words of the starting point male frequency, wear clean without rebellion, chrysanthemum drill electric drill :-)

In the Middle Ages, the legal age of marriage was 12 for women and 14 for men :-)

If you want to know about life in the Middle Ages, I recommend you to read the starting article "The Time-traveling Girl Who Is Not as Good as a Beast". The age of the time-traveling girl is hundreds of years earlier than the one set in this article, but the living standards of the farmers have not improved. 【打手】

Don’t forget to mention the beautiful fantasy of knights’ castles in the Middle Ages. If there is a time-travel, I would rather travel to China than to travel abroad. Those days are really unlucky.No wonder the Chinese have always believed that barbarians from outside the region would not accept education_(:з」∠)_
