Chapter 19 The whole village was destroyed

Listening to what he said, Ma Sheng and several people calmed down. They lowered their heads and thought about Zoning's words, which seemed to be touched.

Gao Yu held Zoning's hand: "Take it. There is something wrong with that drum. I can't win. In fact, I don't plan to do anything for me. Only you can sincerely do something for yourself."

Zoning shook his head, as if he didn't know where to start with a thousand words,

"Well, I only have a few words. You can answer me. What do you have in the hands of the empress dowager? Also, you suddenly asked Ma Sheng that day if the whole village helped him celebrate. What does this mean? If this really embarrass you, just pretend that I didn't ask." Gao Yu helped Zuoning up and said slowly,

Zo Ning looked at Gao Yu and several people in Hu Tieling. Wei Mingcheng thought and patted Hu Tieling: "Let's go back first."

Zoning was even more moved. He knew that if he said something, any of the three people could kill him, but when he saw the three turning around with their shoulders to leave, Zoning suddenly remembered his brothers and family, "Don't go."

Three people stopped, and Zoning said to Gao Yu, "Dami, we all have a handle in the hands of the empress dowager. This handle is a hostage. Our relatives can only meet after we carry out the task."

Ma Sheng said to Hu Tieling, "So, after I finish this task, I can go back to see my parents."

Hu Tieling lowered his head and did not answer Ma Sheng's question,

Gao Yu had an ominous feeling in his heart. He looked at Zoning and asked, "Where did the Empress Dowager put them?"

Zoning raised his head, and the moonlight illuminated his sad identity. He said slowly, "After the incident of Leng Qingdong Window, he fled to the Song Dynasty, but he was still found by the king. Finally, it was found that Leng Qing was ordered to take away the son of the king. Since then, all the assassins who exercised the secret order of the imperial court have been compiled. There are only 30 people in the Liang army, but they are all masters of Xixia, and the Empress Dowager also stipulates that all the family members of the Liang army must be imprisoned, and the Liang army can't know the other party's name and hometown, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, it's like the two who died, and if they violate discipline, their families will be punished. Liang's army's punishment method is more cruel. If a soldier commits taboo or fails the task, let him choose one of his family members to die for him. Therefore, some people fail the task or commit taboos, for After saving their families, they choose to let themselves die..."

Gao Yu was very sad to hear that. So the two people were killed by themselves.

Zoning also saw Gao Yu's expression. He continued, "You don't have to blame yourself. In fact, sooner or later, it's the same. The Empress Dowager refuses to leave any clues about Liang's army."

Ma Sheng shook his head and said, "No, no, I haven't seen my family. They must be fine."

Zo Ning looked at Ma Sheng and asked, "Son, how did you come to Liang's army?"

Ma Sheng said, "A few months ago, a pair of Xixia soldiers passed by our village. They walked very quickly. Later, another group of soldiers asked me if I saw the front team. I said I saw it. They asked me how long I had been walking. I replied: I have been walking for more than half a day, but they were not far away, because His horse was sick and contagious. The horse would bleed and his heart beat faster and died. The man looked at me and left. That night, they took people back and stayed in our village. The official asked me how I knew. I said I could see the horse and understand Ma Yu. He asked me if I wanted to join the army. I I didn't want to join the army. He said that there was a Liang's army beside the Empress Dowager. If I could go in, I would be a high-ranking official, and I wouldn't worry about eating and drinking for the rest of my life. When my mother heard it, she said: Then, I didn't think much about it, so I listened to my mother. The next day I followed them on the road. Before leaving, my parents prepared a running banquet and entertained my father and fellow villagers."

"Then do you know who took you into the Liang army?"

I don't know when Shi Qian appeared among this person. He was small and listened to the story for a long time. Now he got in and said, "The one who escaped was Li Qing who was going to cede peace with the Song Dynasty for the emperor. The one who arrested him was the general manager of Da Nei."

Several people looked at Shi Qian together: "How do you know?"

"People in the Xia Dynasty know that such a big movement, that is, you know what task you are carrying out. You can kill whoever you want, and you don't know how fun the outside world is." He patted Zoning: "If I had your kung fu, I would have developed long ago..."

Gao Yu stared at him: "There are no rules, why don't you worship the teacher well?"

Shi Qian knelt down on one leg and looked at Zuoning and said, "My son is afraid that I won't be talented. He wants me to take the right path, but I may not take the right path after learning this, but it's better than being caught and beaten to death. Master, please give my son face and accept me."

His words made several people smile bitterly. Zoning stamped his feet: "Forget it, I'll just stay behind. I'll take you."

Shi Qian kowtowed happily and jumped up and said, "What you said is so strong. What does it mean to just stay as a queen? Don't you have children?"

Zoning sighed and said, "Doing this for us is like gambling for a long time without a winner. You always have to pay it back when you come out. Your family can only do it for the time being. If you want to blame it, you blame yourself for harming others and yourself."

Ma Sheng turned around and was about to walk out. Hu Tieling grabbed him and said, "What do you want to go?"

"I don't believe what you said. I'm going home and have a look."

Wei Mingcheng Si hugged him and said, "I can't go."

Ma Sheng puffed up his cheeks and gasped. Shi Qian asked, "What is he doing?"

Gao Yu said, "He wants to call Malay." With that, he walked up to Ma Sheng and covered Ma Sheng's mouth: "Don't scream. Tell me where your hometown is. I'll figure it out."

Ma Sheng nodded, and Gao Yu let go of his hand. Ma Sheng said, "My home is in a place called Majia Village at Tiemen Pass."

Gao Yu turned his head and asked Zoning, "Can we go there?"

Zoning said, "Our current route is to pass through Yanchi, and then pass Dingbian to Yanzhou. If we take a detour, we can take Baichi City first, pass through Tiemen Pass, and finally take Wuchi to Yanzhou, but that will arrive two or three days later than expected. Will it cause doubts?"

Gao Yu thought for a moment and asked Ma Sheng, "In your judgment of our horses now, if you travel day and night, can you reach Yanzhou at normal time?"

"This is not a question."

Gao Yu patted Ma Sheng on the shoulder: "Listen to me, have a good rest today. You prepare the horse tomorrow and we will go on the road early in the morning, okay?"

Ma Sheng nodded. Now he has no other choice, and Gao Yu's understanding of them makes him full of gratitude.

Although Gao Yu knows that he still has many questions, compared with these people, the pain of losing his family and the gradual cold-blooded numbness that has just been stimulated to wake up, those questions can only be asked slowly,

According to the route said by Zoning, they quickly took a detour to Baichi City, and then arrived at the Iron Gate. Ma Sheng sat in front of the carriage and pointed to the looming village in front of them and said to Gao Yu, "That's Majia Village. Drive."

He couldn't restrain his inner excitement and urged the horse desperately. Shi Qian sat in the carriage of the carriage and grasped the carriage tightly with both hands. The bumpy road made him almost vomited: "Slow down, the car is about to disperse."

Gao Yu looked at the village in the distance, and his heart was nervous. The land in front of the village was desolate, and he could not see half a figure from afar. Now it is the time of spring ploughing. How can it be so desolate? If there is a village of someone's house, he will at least see some anger and some cooking smoke, but this village, outside the birds hovering in the sky, Nothing,

Finally, several people stopped at the entrance of the village, and there was a dead silence around. The crows on their heads made the air particularly suffocated. Gao Yu took a look at Zoning and Hu Tieling. Their faces were helpless. Ma Sheng jumped down from the carriage and ran to the village. In two steps, he was tripped. When he stood up, he He raised the white bone of one leg, and when he understood it, he shouted and ran desperately to the village.

"Quick, keep up." With Gao Yu's order, several people rushed in. Shi Qian hid in the carriage: "Oh, my God, I'm scared to death." He said but refused to step out of the carriage,

On a path leading to the center of the village, black and purple covered with earth but faint blood can be seen everywhere. On the middle of the street of the village, there are tables, crooked chairs, broken wine jars, clean broken plates licked by wild dogs, and white bones left corpses left on the edge of the table and chairs. Body...

Zoning couldn't help closing his eyes, and Hu Tieling and Wei Mingchengsi tightened their fists angrily,

"Dad, Mom." Ma Sheng shouted and looked around for the body of his relatives. Finally, he found a hairpin in front of a table. His knees were soft, and Zuoning held the hairpin and cried.

Hu Tieling and Wei Ming Chengsi stepped forward and took care of him while advising him, "I'll help you take care of him while we're here."

Gao Yu sighed and said to Zoning beside him, "Isn't there an official government here? Aren't you afraid that Ma Sheng will find these when he comes home?"

Zoning said, "This boundary belongs to the remote countryside, and the boundary belongs to the three cares. No one wants to do this matter. As for Ma Sheng... It all depends on his creation. Maybe if he fails this time, there will always be scapegoats. He is a newcomer who has not been tested and hostage, and he went to the whole village of Liang's army to celebrate. It's a taboo."

Gao Yu shouted to Shi Qian on the carriage at the entrance of the village, "Come down and find some tools."

Several people helped Ma Sheng bury the bones together. It was dark, and Zoning handed the torch to Ma Sheng: "Burn the village."

Ma Sheng wiped his tears, took the torch and threw it high. The torch fell on his roof. After a while, the fire spread. Suddenly, Hu Tieling took out his special soft rope and tied Ma Sheng firmly.

Ma Sheng didn't even seem to have the idea of struggling. As soon as he closed his eyes, Zuoning pulled out his knife and raised it to Gao Yu and asked, "Gao Dami, Ma Sheng can't work for the court anymore. It's still not to kill him."
