With a thud, blood burst open, and the gray sky was torn apart.
Zhang Chun woke up suddenly.
There were still scrawny figures in front of him, and they knelt on the ground begging for mercy.
Then another group of equally scrawny people rushed forward, there was no mercy, only you lived and died.
Even the blood didn't have a trace of temperature, it was cold and biting.
Such a nightmare has been tormenting Zhang Chun for two days.
The pain in his wrists and body from his bones told him that it had all happened so real.
"Chunya."
The towel on Zhang Chun's wrist and forehead slid onto the bed.
Zhang Chun subconsciously screamed.
A glimmer of light flashed through the dimly lit room, and a healthy, energetic figure walked in.
Zhang Chun pressed his forehead, which seemed to be about to crack, carefully distinguish the things in front of him, and slowly regained his senses.
This is 1898, the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu, the year of Wuxu, and the year of the dog.
In my memory, this year the imperial court will carry out the Wuxu Reform.
The Qing Empire signed the "Jiao-Macao Lend-Lease Treaty" with Germany, and Germany seized the privilege of building the Jiaoji Railway, mining minerals along the railway, and giving priority to undertaking various undertakings in Shandong.
The struggle between the Manchu regime and the Han nobility was already unstoppable, and the Empress Dowager Cixi's wariness of the Han people had turned into dissatisfaction, turning the Boxers into regular militias, and she wanted to abandon the green camp and use the Eight Banners Army and the militia to fight to the death with the foreigners.
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Zhang Chun.
In March, the spring cold is not over.
The Yunlong River flows out of Hutou Mountain, sometimes violently, sometimes meekly converging into Yunmengze and into the Han River.
The town of Yunlong on the riverside is at the junction of mountains and plains, and the people here are called Huli people.
In the province of a thousand lakes, Yunmeng Daze has not completely disappeared, of course there are many lakes.
Of course, the root cause is not only the frequent flooding of the Han River, but also the poor drainage and waterlogging of the river.
A few years later, a great man who tried to change the world opened a number of artificial rivers and turned the sea into mulberry fields.
But years later, it is difficult for Zhang Chun, who is engaged in environmental research at the Institute of Agricultural Research, to say whether the great man's decision was right or wrong.
Opposite to the people in the lake, less than 20 kilometers, after passing the mouth of the swallow, you will enter the mountain, and the people in the mountain are called mountain people.
Yunlong Town, located in Chengtianfu, at the junction of Jingshan, Zhongxiang and Tianmen County, there are bandits in the mountains, lake bandits in the lake, and in the three regardless of the zone, there has never been peace.
This is not the Zhang family recruiting thieves, or this Yunlong Town is recruiting thieves.
The Zhang family compound, the triple courtyard, burned half of it.
The thieves are said to be lake bandits, but they came from the north.
Henan suffers a disaster, there will be bandits in the disaster, Hubei is a good living person, so there is an extra group of bandits in Zhouhu Lake in 800 miles, and it also indicates that the bandits will become homeless people when they arrive in Hubei, they want to grab grain to survive the spring famine, and then become a bandit for a few years, and become the mountain people here.
It's just that both the bandits and the locals are exhausted in the process, and there is not one out of ten.
For hundreds of years, this cycle has continued, with constant killings.
The people in the mountains are synonymous with bandits, of course, the people in the lake are not much different, but the people in the lake are located in the plains, where food is produced, and the court is more protected and relatively calm.
Yunlong Town is subordinate to Jingshan County, and there is a government yamen money and grain cabinet, although the supervisor is a county official, he is also a thousand generals, and there are more than 100 officers and soldiers.
But now there are less than twenty people left, and the county and the two generals are dead.
The county commander had no choice but to send the lord Bo over, but he only brought more than a dozen officials.
Today, a government official came to ask about the disaster situation of the Zhang family, but it was just to ask, not for disaster relief, but to finalize whether the spring could be paid.
The imperial court is not in charge of the township, the township was originally managed by the armor, and the imperial court is in a time of lack of money, and they care about money.
Disaster relief has become a matter of squire armor protection, but the original chief is now Zhang Chun's father, and now there is no one in the Zhang family, only eight-year-old Zhang Chun remains.
Before Zhang Chun's soul returned, he was originally a researcher at the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, but he was poisoned in an experiment, and because his health was too poor, other colleagues were fine after a few days.
And Zhang Chun dragged on the hospital bed for more than a year.
In the end, the soul traveled through a full hundred years.
There is more than one family that suffers, Zhangjialing and Jinjiling, and the two ancestral halls of the Zhang family are gone.
It is said that there is only one daughter-in-law left in the Zhang family in Jinjiling.
The Zhangjialing bandits came late and had some resistance, but it was not much better.

I originally thought that it was also going to be destroyed, but I didn't expect an eight-year-old child to crawl out of the pile of dead people, but he had already changed his soul, the soul of a hundred years later.
Zhang Chun's research institute is subordinate to the military, and he usually has to do general military training, which made Zhang Chun think of weapons at the first time, and he really found it, an antique-level box cannon.
Zhang Chun is not called Zhang Chun now, but Da Yan.
Zhang Chun did not know how to judge this catastrophe.
A large number of bandits cannot be called bandits, that is, a group of victims who are so hungry that they can only bite with their bodies, and hit their bodies with waving wooden sticks, and they do not even feel pain.
They grasp anything sharp and fight with their lives in exchange for something to eat.
If it is said that more than 300 people died in the Zhang family, and the bodies of the bandits have not been dragged out until now.
Putting out fires, saving people or killing people, for three whole days.
As soon as the people of his family left, Zhang Chun fell.
The girl who came in was called Chunya, a maid of a sister at the door, bought from outside, fourteen years old, no one knew what her original surname was, but now her surname is Zhang.
This girl and Zhang Chun are one of the reasons why the Zhang family was not destroyed.
Chunya knows martial arts, martial arts are still very good, even if she is a maid, she is always well fed and warmly dressed, and she is the only person Zhang Chun has seen who meets the health standards of later generations.
And the eight-year-old Zhang Chun will shoot, a box cannon, in fact, there is no need to aim, because the opponent will not dodge at all, and Zhang Chun even sees relief in the eyes of the bandits who were killed.
It's just that Zhang Chun is too small, and this antique-level box cannon is not very powerful, but the vibration still makes Zhang Chun a little uncontrollable, and his entire wrist, even his arm, is now swollen.
Zhang Chun began to shoot during Chunya's last resistance.
Let several women who were already desperate also start a journey to save themselves.
There was also an old man who walked in with Chunya, who was the master of Zhangjia's groove workshop, and it is said that he also bought it, but after following the Zhang family for decades, it was he who took his two apprentices from the backyard over the wall into the inner courtyard, which gave Zhang Chun and Chunya the opportunity to completely turn the situation around.
There are only more than 400 people in Zhangjialing, including tenants and tenants, and there are less than 40 people left, all of whom are injured, and only more than 10 people are slightly injured.
The surname Zhang of Zhangjialing migrated from Jiujiang Mansion in Jiangxi Province to Qinghe, and then derived from a side branch of Qinghe.
Although Jinjiling is also surnamed Zhang, it moved from Anhui to Qinghe.
During the Northern Expedition of the Taiping Army, in order to protect himself, the surname Zhang of Qinghe merged the surnames of two different ancestors and continued to write the general score of the surname Zhang.
Zhangjialing and Jinjiling have changed from open and secret battles to life and death.
This is the inevitable result of troubled times.
By the time Qinghe's family came, the killing had stopped, and Zhang Chunzheng was leading people to bury the bodies of his relatives.
Zhang Chun is now a Ming generation, and the people who come are also Ming characters, but because of the different character schools, they are a generation higher than Zhang Chun.
Although Zhang Chun is only eight years old, he is finally the eldest son of Zhangjialing Dafang, and the Zhangjialing Zhang family has no end, so the people from this family only give ten strings of copper coins, and they go back to Jinjiling, where there is no person in charge, and the casualties are even more severe than here.
Zhang Chun didn't say anything.
"Young master, two more people are leaving, but the rest of the people should be fine."
Zhang Xiuqing was very respectful to this eight-year-old child.
Zhang Xiuqing has only seen this little young master of the Zhang family a few times.
Unexpectedly, in the past three days, the child who had been biting his fingers and was so timid that he had come to the trough workshop actually changed a person completely when the catastrophe was coming, and if it weren't for the fact that he was lying on the bed trembling all over his body, he would have been silent a lot.
Zhang Xiuqing almost thought that there was a demon in the Zhang family.
Despite this, this young master also showed maturity far beyond his peers.
"Grandpa Xiu, the doctor in the town didn't leave."
Zhang Chun handed Chunya a wet towel and asked her to soak herself in well water to cool herself.
His voice was hoarse and almost silent, and he coughed violently as soon as he spoke.
"It's still there.
The medicinal herbs also let Ah Qiang buy them. ” "Do you have boiling water to drink, the cloth that covers the wound has been boiled?
Rain outside again?
Zhang Chun looked up at the window.
The sky was very overcast, the eaves tiles were ticking, and it was clear that the rain was not small.
"Luckily it rained, otherwise the fire wouldn't have stopped."
"The dead are all cleaned up, and the polluted water is undrinkable."
Zhang Chun wanted to get up, but he couldn't do anything.
"It's okay in the village, it's all cleaned up, but there are no in the field."

"Bury them as soon as possible, and so will the bandits.
Everyone can live in it, and there are few rooms in the inner courtyard.
"Zhang Chun's health is not good, or very poor, very thin, it is not easy to hold on until now.
"The rescuer hasn't come back yet, Xiao Rong has built a few sheds outside, and I don't know how many people can live."
"If there is enough food, let people guard it, there will be some days until the summer harvest."
"The food is in the inner court.
Enough is not enough.
All the houses have been searched, but there is not much food left, and the thieves are here for the food. ” "Take all the jewelry and stuff at home, and have enough food."
In the end, the Zhang family always guarded the inner courtyard, and left some silver and jewelry in the inner courtyard, as well as some food.
"Every family has been robbed, and I am afraid that there will not be enough food, and if the town does not distribute grain, the price of grain will rise, and I am afraid that I will not be able to buy much grain.
There are still a few villages below that are on fire, and few people will not survive.
It is said that there is no one in the Zhang family in Jinjiling, and there is no one to collect the body.
The rest are all women and little babies, and women have been abused.
"The families that Zhang Xiuqing said do not refer to ordinary tenants, but to big families, these big families have their own family arms, and even bandits dare not provoke easily.
Although Zhangjialing and Jinjiling have some maids and servants, there are very few families who can do martial arts.
Even Chunya was just an accident.
Zhang Chun sighed: "All the money is exchanged for food, and now the money is useless."
The thief hasn't left yet?
” "Most of them left, and more thieves died than we did, some of them starved to death in the wilderness, and some of them hanged themselves.
Picked up several children who were dying of hunger. ” "If you can feed it, keep it, when it rains, search all the village, gather all the useful things here, and see if there is enough to build a house."
Build the courtyard first, the courtyard wall is still there, and it is not so easy for thieves to get in.
Leave the crops alone. ” "Yes, young master."
After Zhang Xiuqing went out, Zhang Chun got out of bed with the help of Chunya.
Zhang Chun is still wearing a robe and horse coat, but Aunt Qin has changed it.
The original clothes were full of blood stains and were washed, and now Zhang Chun's body is made of old adult clothes.
Zhang Chun knows this history.
"Guangxu's family disaster" was recorded in the family tree.
The difference is that the Zhang family was originally wiped out, just because a grandmother who married into Qinghe let her son return to the sect and follow.
It is said that in order to re-support the Zhang family, two hundred taels of silver were spent at one time.
Zhang Chun estimated that after calming down in the past few days, this grandmother and now the eldest sister will probably have arrived.
"Chunya, I want to go outside."
If there is no panic in his heart, this is not a fact, but Zhang Chun knows that he can't show the panic.
Zhang Chun didn't understand why these people would choose to believe in a person who was just a child, but if he collapsed, this group of people would probably disperse.
And he needs to sort out the situation well, there are many things he hasn't been able to figure out.
Guangxu Nian knew it in Zhang Xiuqing's mouth.
This year was the beginning of social change in China, but I didn't expect it to be a brutal way of killing.
