It is said to be wide, because it does not look like a place to live, and the road is wider than that outside the Han Mansion. One side of the road is as white and tiled as usual, but on the other side is a very high wall made of huge bricks and stones, which seems to be only about half a foot shorter than the city wall, and even taller than the outer wall of the government palace.www.biquge.info

On such a wide street, there was not a single patrolling soldier in sight. At the same time, what surprised Liu Shuangli even more was that as soon as she stepped here, she listened to the extremely noisy sound coming from the other side of the high wall.

It's so noisy and so clueless, it sounds like a bazaar.

Isn't Xuanhua a closed city and curfew? In the middle of the night, how could it be so noisy, did they come to the barracks?

At this point, all five of them slowed down. Liu Shuangli was led by Ling Xue, wondering in his heart, looking up at Ling Xue, and seeing that her face was still the same, as if she hadn't heard these noises at all.

Li Chaoxiong hugged Qin Siyang, led the way with his back to them, and walked all the way along the high wall to the end of this wide street.

Turning over the high wall, the sudden appearance in front of him shocked Liu Shuangli in an instant.

I saw that there were many people densely surrounded in front.

The noisy sounds of the bazaar came from the mouths of these people.

And these people don't have to doubt at a glance, they are all ordinary people in the city.

If you look closely through the moonlight, you can find that all of these people are yellow-skinned and emaciated, obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.

In such a dark night, these emaciated ordinary people, who are not resting at home, gather here together?

Isn't Xuanhua City under martial law? How can these people still be allowed to gather here?

Liu Shuangli was puzzled.

"They're - how can they still be so late-"

"Girl Liu, are you strange?" Ling Xue asked as she took Liu Shuangli's chatterbox.

At this time, the five people who had escaped from the Han Mansion had already squeezed into these noisy crowds.

The crowd was crowded, and except for Qin Siyang, who was held by Li Chaoxiong, the other four of them were holding hands, not daring to squeeze forward with any slackness.

"Of course it's strange, aren't you strange Sister Ling Xue? Isn't Xuanhua martial law now?" Liu Shuangli replied with difficulty. At this time, she was being led by Ling Xue with one hand and Qu Qing with the other. Because the steps taken are small, it seems a little staggering to walk.

"It wouldn't be strange if you knew what this place was. Ling Xue's eyes were slight, and the words she said seemed to be a little erratic.

Because Li Chaoxiong opened the way in front, Ling Xue was relatively not very hard. She only needed to pay attention to following Li Chaoxiong closely, and then tighten Liu Shuangli's hand.

"Well, what kind of place is this?" Liu Shuangli looked curious.

"This is the granary in the south of the city, sister of the Liu family. It was Qu Qing who followed Liu Shuangli who replied.

"......Granary? Then these people are ......"

"I'm waiting to get my rations. Ling Xue replied with a sigh.

"Get rations, it's not dawn yet—" Liu Shuangli looked at the crowd with wide eyes.

"yes. Every day has been since two months ago. Not only here, but also the North Granary, located in the north of the city. For twelve hours a day, there are ordinary people surrounding the outside, and no matter how much they persuade them, they can't be persuaded to disperse. Everyone is just hungry and scared. ”

"Scared?"

"Yes, I'm afraid, I don't have anything to eat, who is not afraid? I don't know when Xuanhua will lift the ban. Ling Xue let out a long sigh, "If you can have something to eat and a full stomach, who will come here every day to live and suffer?"

"Everyone, ......" Liu Shuangli looked at these people with yellow faces and thin muscles, who might fall down at any time, but were emotional, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. When the words came to his lips, he couldn't go on anymore.

"Xuanhua City has been self-sealed for more than three months and has not had any contact with the outside world. There is no commodity trading, and you can't go out of the city to farm and collect grain. Hey, how are you going to live this day, it's really hard for the people here. Qu Qing sighed.

Liu Shuangli lowered his head, remembering that when he was so hungry that he couldn't walk, he was held by his father outside the yamen of the official mansion, waiting for a day and a night, just for that bowl of relief rice porridge that could be used as a mirror.

How similar it was then to what it is now.

No matter where it is, no matter what disaster happens, the first people to be implicated must be the most ordinary and lowest-class people.

As the saying goes: prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer.

Thinking of this, Liu Shuangli couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and the steps under his feet also stopped.

Ling Xue had been pulling Liu Shuangli tightly, and suddenly felt her stop. looked back at Liu Shuangli and sighed in his heart. knows that this girl is pure-hearted and can't see such a miserable situation. After sighing secretly, I didn't know how to comfort her for a while.

But it's not easy to stay too much. Ling Xue pinched Liu Shuangli's hand and dragged her whole person up with a slight lift. Qu Qing walked at the end, keeping an eye on blocking the crowd that was crowded at any time, and seeing Ling Xue like this at this moment, he also lifted Liu Shuangli up with Ling Xue and walked away.

After doing this for a while, Liu Shuangli recovered from his injuries. felt the wordless care of Ling Xue and Qu Qing's two sisters. With a burst of emotion in his heart, he straightened his feet and landed on the ground, nodded to Ling Xue and Qu Qing respectively and thanked him, his steps sped up, and he didn't need to lead him, so he followed.

How fortunate she is, although she was also trapped in Xuanhua March, she was taken care of by the Han Mansion.

Liu Shuangli thought about it, raised his head and looked at Sister Ling Xue who had been taking care of her carefully during this time, and then looked at Qin Siyang, who was protected by Li Chaoxiong.

The boy was looking down thoughtfully, and the commotion of the crowd didn't seem to affect him in the slightest. But at the same time as Liu Shuangli looked over, he also raised his eyes to look at Liu Shuangli as if he had a heart in his heart.

As soon as the two children met, the boy seemed to know something, and nodded cautiously at Liu Shuangli.

didn't understand the true meaning of the boy's nod at her, but seeing Qin Siyang's cautious face, Liu Shuangli still smiled back with relief.

The darkest night passed, but the dawn was long before it came.

The eastern light still did not shine, and the people, who had been standing in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, could only guess by intuition that the day was about to dawn.

Because as soon as the day dawns, the granary will be opened.

I don't know who subconsciously shouted: "It's dawn, open the warehouse door quickly." ”

When the crowd heard this, regardless of whether it was true or not, they immediately became agitated, and they rushed to the gate of the granary while shouting 'open the door, open the door'.

In such a crowded situation, if someone accidentally falls, and may be stepped on by the person behind them, the consequences are unimaginable.

Liu Shuangli looked at it, and his heart throbbed. She had experienced it with her father when she was a child, and it was really miserable, and she still can't bear to recall.

Fortunately, when the crowd was agitated and fierce, they had followed Li Chaoxiong to the other side of the square. The chaotic crowd no longer affects them.

The bleak scene was slowly left behind.

On the other side of the square, there is a long, narrow alley that stretches north with its back to the agitated crowd. Li Chaoxiong squeezed through the crowd and led Ling Xue and the others into this long alley.

Behind the five men, the miserable people, who were already out of control, began to storm the door of the granary after several incendiary shouts.

I wonder if anyone has been trampled underfoot?

Liu Shuangli was dragged into the alley by Ling Xue, but his eyes still couldn't help but look back at the chaotic crowd behind him.

May everyone be well, and may everyone receive a full stomach. Liu Shuangli prayed silently in his heart. Finally, he glanced back at the crowd, then turned his head and followed Ling Xue into the alley.
