ghost city

Chapter 4

At that time, her father fought fiercely with Wang Jian at Jingxing Pass, and she was looking forward to his triumphant return day and night.But when he really returned to Handan, before he could see his wife and daughter, he was killed by Guo Kai and Han Cang in a dirty temple.

It is a great sadness and irony for a country to kill a good general defending itself as a traitor!

The incompetent monarch and the sycophants who play with power are acting recklessly. How can such a state of Zhao not perish! ?

Such a state of Zhao made her feel bitter and hateful.Although she hated Qin Guo for using countermeasures, but the one who really killed her father was Zhao Guo, whom he could never forget and swore to defend to the death!

After his father died, Zhao Guo was buried in the hands of Zhao Cong and Yan Ju.Sima Shang risked his life and fled back to Handan, and secretly sent her and her mother to Daidi to follow the fugitive son Jia.

The people stationed in Dai are old, weak and remnant soldiers. It is only a matter of time before Qin swallows this weak Dai.After the defeat of the Yan-Dai Allied Forces in Yishui, the Dai Kingdom also embarked on the road to perdition.Young Master Jia turned his head gray with sorrow.After Sima Shang raised troops everywhere to no avail, he fled to Youwang City alone.Mother and she waited day by day for the return of Sima Shang—her uncle—in Daidi.But until the army came under pressure, there was still no news.

She still remembered, that day, the tragic image of the tiger and wolf division in black armor trampling through the city with the Lie Liefang flag.There is death everywhere, wandering everywhere, and wailing everywhere... Men all died on the battlefield, only women, children, old and weak are left desperately waiting for the falling butcher's knife.Mother did not flee with the refugees, but burned "Ten Commandments of Generals" to ashes, quietly waiting for death to come.At that moment, the face of the always gentle mother showed a rare determination and determination.

After all, she and her mother did not wait for her uncle's rescue.A Qin soldier pulled the mother and daughter out of the corner.In order to protect her, her mother greeted the cold Chang Ge with her thin back.Blood splattered her face, and it also stained the end of the road.Her eyes were so blurred that she couldn't see anything, she just remembered the setting sun in the sky was as beautiful as blood.

Her father was gone, and so was her mother. She couldn't see any way out, her mind went blank, and even her hatred was emptied.

Just when the sharp tip was about to pierce through her chest, a cold and strong embrace wrapped her up.Then, another gust of hot blood splashed all over his body -- it was Qin Bing's dirty blood!

She was numb to the pain of losing a loved one.When the man with the beard and mustache knelt in front of his mother's body and howled in pain, she couldn't speak a word.

"I'm late, I'm late!" The uncle who had always been resolute and forbearing in his memory cried out in dismay. He didn't know if it was her mother, her long-gone father, or the last embers of Zhao Guo. off.

She didn't even know how she followed her uncle to Youwang City.She only knew that her uncle had sacrificed his body and turned into a ghost in order to join Young Master Ling's command—because no one was allowed to exist in Youwang City.Without the help of young master Ling, the penniless uncle would not be able to borrow the ghost army.But everything was still a step too late, all because of Guo Kai's obstacles.

That sycophant, after being executed by Qin State, actually came to Youxuan City and continued to cause trouble!She couldn't tear him into pieces, she only hoped that one day he would be scattered.

The battle in Youwang City did not stop, her uncle hid her in the Red Thorn Courtyard, and followed Young Master Ling to the battlefield in a hurry.

Her uncle told her never to step out of the Red Thorn Courtyard.If others know that there is a living person, her end is death.

However, my uncle left in such a hurry that he forgot to arrange for her to eat and drink.It's no wonder that after having ghosts, the Red Thorn House hardly needs to prepare meals.

It had been five days, and she was so hungry that she had already eaten up all the dry food on her body.And she hid in the darkroom arranged by her uncle, and no maidservant knew about it.Unable to bear the hunger, she hesitated again and again, and sneaked out of the dark room to look for food.

Where did she remember the way in the Qingyuan, she accidentally walked out of the Redthorn Courtyard.

She shuttled secretly between the palace pavilions, carefully avoiding the ghost servants and guards who came and went.But in the panic, he couldn't find his way back.

Just as she turned around the flower wall and avoided a group of ghost boys, she bumped into a pale figure head-on.It was too cold to be angry at all.

She lost her mind and soul, turned around and ran towards the opposite arch, and suddenly fell into another unknown courtyard.

The cold air behind her was getting stronger and stronger, and the sharp wind echoed in her ears, and she knew that it was the white shadow following closely behind.

My mind was blank, I even forgot my fear, and just ran for my life.She got into the lush flowers, her small body was submerged by the sea of ​​flowers, but her face and arms were drenched with blood from the sharp thorns.But that life-seeking breath still lingers.

When a blue pool appeared in front of her eyes, she jumped into the water without thinking about it, so as to hide herself.

She had been holding her breath underwater, almost suffocating, but the cloudy energy still lingered on the surface of the water.

"My lord is so interested. Is there anything in the water? Are you so fascinated?" An evil voice came faintly, and she only felt a chill.A red shadow can be seen in the water.My heart was filled with ashes: here comes another one.

Feeling that her chest was about to burst, she opened her mouth slightly, and a gust of water poured into her mouth, with a strong fishy smell.

"It's nothing. I just came back from the battle, so I came here to relax." Another deep voice answered lukewarmly.

She felt that her spiritual consciousness was about to be pulled away, so she simply opened her mouth and let the clear water pour into her throat.

"Come out." After a while, the deep voice sounded again.

This time she almost resigned to her fate.But he decided to take a gamble, so he endured it and kept silent.

In a trance, a strong force rolled her up and threw her out of the water. She fell heavily on the ground, and her chest was hit suddenly, causing her to spit out all the water in the pool.

With a sigh in her heart, she decided to give up.If it wasn't for her uncle, she would have died in Daidi long ago.The scene of the past few days can be regarded as stolen.What else does she want?Her parents passed away, her homeland was destroyed, and she really had nothing to love in life.Rather than living in this dark place without seeing the light of day, it is better to die dignifiedly.

She straightened her skirt, straightened her body, and raised her head.Even if she dies, she can't lose her dignity!She is Li Mu's daughter!

It's just that when her eyes met those green pupils, she felt an inexplicable look flashing across them.

"Come on." She said lightly, with a desolate smile on the corner of her lips.

Before the man could speak, he was interrupted by a loud cry: "You'er!"

Her heart skipped a beat, that familiar voice, she was finally looking forward to it!

Before she could see the other person's face clearly, she threw herself into that cold but firm embrace.When those powerful arms hugged her tightly, her consciousness, her love and hatred, all came back.

"Uncle——" she yelled, and finally cried uncontrollably.The fear, despair, sadness and hatred that had been pent up in her heart for several days all burst out, engulfing her like a river breaking its embankment.

"Mother is dead! Mother is dead! Killed by Qin Jun! The Dai Kingdom is destroyed! The Zhao Kingdom is completely destroyed! Uncle——! I have nothing left!" Feeling scared, but it seems that only in this way can her empty heart be filled, like a drowning person grasping for straw in vain.

The man holding him just kept patting her on the back: "And uncle...it's okay...it's okay...it's okay..."

The strange man with blue eyes just stood there quietly, not saying a word.But she didn't see all kinds of mourning and sadness in his eyes, even though it had nothing to do with her.

That year, she was 13 years old.
