Lucky Girl: Take the Space To Escape From the Famine

Chapter 100 The Tragedy of the Villages

Wei Lizheng finally gave some cassava to the refugees, and repeatedly told that the cassava could be planted, and more would grow in the future.

But he also knew that those cassava had a great possibility of being eaten immediately.

"Lizheng, they are pitiful, but you should not give them anything in the future."

Yin Bowu walked beside Wei Lizheng and said.

"Why?"

Wei Lizheng was puzzled, and the Yin family were obviously the least caring people.

"One pass ten, ten pass a hundred, if the people around know that our village can send food, and they all come to ask for it?"

Yin Bowu replied.

"That's true, but I just told them about the situation in our village, maybe they won't come back."

Wei Lizheng didn't particularly care, after all, they really couldn't come up with anything.

"Hopefully."

Yin Bowu said goodbye to Wei Lizheng and walked towards Fang Tianhai's house. He also planned to see how their custom-made wooden cart was.

...

The early summer wind blew by, rolling up a piece of yellow sand.

The original farmland on both sides of the road has become barren yellow land, and the wind is still mixed with some dried grass clippings and locust wings from time to time.

A carriage was walking along the road in the middle. The carriage was surrounded by five people dressed as officials, and a few villagers were not far away from them.

"There seem to be few households in this village."

Xiao Xuan heard the little girl beside him muttering.

"Fumin Village, there are still 167 villagers left, no more, no less."

Xiao Xuan replied.

"Master, the front is the center of Fumin Village."

Yun Jiang said.

"Everyone, don't be impatient. Our Lord Bai said that we must ensure that every villager can receive food. With my Zhongliang here, I will definitely not lose a grain of rice for everyone."

The officer who walked in the front was full of pride, and he said to the surrounding villagers.

"How did he become an adjutant of the county government?"

Yin Miao couldn't help but asked in a low voice, this Zhong Liang was not only a member of Xiao Xuan, but also an adjutant of a nearby county magistrate, but this person looked a little not very smart.

"Bought with money."

Xiao Xuan looked ahead and smiled.

What he has is that it is not difficult to buy a few petty officials for others. Besides, buying an official position is rare in the capital of Nanxiao Kingdom, but it is very common in other states.

"Then how did you choose him?"

Yin Miao asked again, it was not that she looked down on the other party, but that Zhong Liang's personality was very different from other people under Xiao Xuan, and she always felt that he was unreliable.

"Just listen."

Seeing Xiao Xuan smiling but not saying a word, Yin Miao did not ask any more questions, and there were really many people in this deserted village. As soon as they stood there, they were surrounded by villagers.

"Are you really the government to distribute food?"

One of them asked.

"Of course, our Lord Bai got some food from the top only after he wrote a blood letter. Not only that, he also donated his salary to help everyone."

Zhong Liang replied.

When they heard that they were really here to distribute food, the villagers were all excited.

"Each person can only receive one bucket of food. Later, I will distribute food according to Lizheng's roster. You don't have to crowd."

Zhong Liang's voice just fell, and many villagers thought they didn't hear it clearly.

How can one person get a bucket of food?

It must be that they heard it wrong.

"It's a bucket of grain, and our Lord Bai is not enough, but he has done his best."

Zhong Liang said according to the reason he had been taught in advance.

"Master Bai is really a good official for the country and the people!"

"Thank you, Master Bai!"

"Thank you, Lord Bai, for your life-saving grace!"

"Our whole village is praying for Lord Bai."

"..."

The villagers said excitedly, they didn't know which official Master Bai was, they only knew that he was a good official and his full name was Bai Qi.

"If Master Bai knew that you were so grateful, he would definitely be happy, but he has something important to do today, and I will convey it for you."

After finishing all the memorized sentences, Zhong Liang was finally able to let himself go. He arranged for a few villagers to maintain order, and called the Li Zhengnian roster. He and Yun Jiang Yunhe distributed food for the villagers.

He didn't know who the taller and the other short officers were. One of them was obviously a woman, but his officer was bought for him, and the fat messenger was also arranged for him by that person. As for these He didn't intend to ask what shouldn't be asked, anyway, it's himself who is now standing out and accepting the gratitude of others.

"If ten people can only share one bucket of food, what's the difference with no?"

Yin Miao watched a mother take the food with her skinny hands, and then cried while holding the three-year-old child in her arms. It was a happy cry.

"The above only pursues names, and no one cares about them."

Xiao Xuan replied.

"Wait, you only got a bucket of grain, and there's still a bucket left."

Zhong Liang stopped the woman who was crying while holding the child.

"Also, there's one more fight? But I'm the only one left in my family."

The woman wiped her tears and said.

"Isn't it a person in your arms?"

Although Zhong Liang didn't speak very nicely, but after a moment of surprise, the woman knelt down and bowed with gratitude.

Her children even got food.

"Thank you, Lord Bai, thank you, Lord Zhong, and thank you all the officials."

The woman who received the food took her child and kept thanking her.

"Then Master Bai is also yours? Aren't you afraid that he will be found out?"

Yin Miao asked after feeling emotional.

"Don't worry, there is no such person among the hundreds of officials in Tingshi Prefecture, nor in Nanxiao Country."

Xiao Xuan replied, seeing Yin Miao puzzled, he continued: "Not now, does not mean not in the future."

What a coincidence...

Yin Miao couldn't help admiring Xiao Xuan. In the future, if this Lord Bai waited for the opportunity to appear, his lethality would be greatly increased.

I just don't know what Xiao Xuan wants to do.

Is he trying to rebel and become emperor?

Yin Miao had reservations about this idea because, based on her recent observations, Xiao Xuan did not seem to be that ambitious person.

"After following this village, it's Chenjia Village. We have to go back as soon as possible."

Xiao Xuan said.

They left the village today in the name of going to the county seat to buy, so they can't delay for too long.

"Um."

This was the second village they came to today. Yin Miao did not expect that the villages outside were already so poor, and some people in these two villages had already left to become escaped households.

And when they arrived in front of the last Chenjia Village, several people had an ominous premonition in their hearts.

Chenjiacun looked lifeless, and there was no one around, but the bulge on the ground, which was covered by the wind and sand, looked like a human.

"Master, there are no living people in Chen's Village, and all the villagers have been killed."

Yun Jiang probed for a while and returned to return.

"What?! All dead? Who is so bold?!"

Zhong Liang was taken aback, could it be a mountain bandit massacre again?
