Xiao Lan didn't expect that the current human traffickers would dare to be so rampant, and they would dare to ask directly in front of them if they wanted to sell children. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The trafficker boldly said what he meant, but Wang Niuguang was shocked and did not continue to respond. Hearing the trafficker's words, Wang Ya hurriedly hid in Xiao Lan's arms, clinging to Xiao Lan's clothes tightly, and was afraid in her heart. And Xiao Lan just looked at the traffickers expressionlessly, silent.

No one replied, and the traffickers didn't feel embarrassed, and continued to cheekily encourage Xiao Lan to say: "Old man, you baby is smart, and you look smart, I can give you a good price, is a bag of corn enough?"

The great famine is lacking food, so naturally it is necessary to exchange food for children, and I have to sigh the cheapness of human life, and a bag of corn can be sold at will.

"Get out, we don't sell children, go back where you came from!"

Wang Niuguang, who came back to his senses, was enraged by what the traffickers said, and glared at him viciously, if he hadn't carried a bamboo basket on his back, he would definitely go up and beat him immediately.

The trafficker selectively ignored Wang Niuguang, but secretly observed Xiao Lan's expression, and also understood that the other party had no intention of selling children. It's not fun to be self-deprecating, the traffickers are only interested in Wang Ya, and it's not like that, so give up this and find the next one.

"It seems that you still don't understand that the world is difficult now, and I can buy three lives in a bag of corn. If you have this idea in the future, you can come to me, and I'm in the county. ”

Hearing this, the trafficker gave up, but he was sure that Xiao Lan would go back to him.

After all, he has seen too many such people, and at first he swore that he would not sell them, but later he hastily sold the children at a low price, just to eat a mouthful of food.

Before leaving, the trafficker glanced at Wang Ya and showed a smile that was bound to win.

After the traffickers left, Xiao Lan also stopped the stunned Wang Niuguang and said, "Let's go." ”

Wang Niuguang didn't move in place, I don't know why, his mood instantly became low, and he asked puzzledly: "Grandpa, why can he be so shameless, come up and ask about selling children?"

"He's done that many times. Xiao Lan lowered her head to appease Wang Ya, who was already frightened, and said expressionlessly without looking at Wang Niuguang.

Wang Niuguang was picked up by his grandmother, and he also knew that he was abandoned by his parents, so he was so angry when he faced the traffickers just now. What he didn't understand was why some parents would want to sell their children.

Wang Niuguang suddenly decided that the bamboo basket on his back was heavy, he had no strength, and asked sadly: "Many people sell children?"

"If you can't support it, you can sell it, and if you sell it, you can live, and your children can live. Xiao Lan explained to Wang Niuguang from the perspective of interests, many times parents are forced to abandon their children.

If there is no food in the house, the child can be sold for food, and the child does not have to be starved by the traffickers.

Such a "win-win" is inevitably a bit sad.

Wang Niuguang stopped talking, and lowered his head. Wang Ya, who was in Xiao Lan's arms, was frightened by the traffickers just now, and when she heard what Xiao Lan said, she immediately began to cry.

"Grandpa, if you don't have anything to eat, can you sell Yaya back? Yaya can have less in the future, Grandpa doesn't want to sell Yaya, okay?" Wang Ya choked up, and said the above words in an almost pleading tone, pulling Xiao Lan's clothes.

"Well, if you don't sell it, Grandpa won't sell Yaya. Xiao Lan replied earnestly word by word.

The encounter with the traffickers made the mood of the three people not very good, but fortunately there was no such situation later. After the three of them walked out of the county seat, they found a place to rest under a big tree.

As soon as Xiao Lan sat down, Wang Niuguang was leaving. He put down the bamboo basket, said a word to Xiao Lan, and went to the gate of the county seat to guard. Wang Niuguang followed Xiao Lan to eat mixed rice, and his grandmother was the person he cared about the most.

If Wang Niuguang still didn't find his grandmother today, he would also return to Xiao Lan. As for whether it will come back as before, no one knows.

Xiao Lan sat under the big tree, blocking out the scorching sun, looking at the refugees who kept coming and going on the avenue in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking. And because Wang Ya had nothing to do, she fell asleep near noon.

The summer breeze was blowing, the sound of cicadas was everywhere, Xiao Lan picked up the kettle, "grunted" and took a sip, and the world was so quiet that it seemed that he was the only one left.

But under the big tree, it was not just Xiao Lan's family waiting, in addition to him and Wang Ya, there was also a family of four who dragged an ox cart here to lay the floor.

They had also entered the city, and they had come out in despair, so they had no heart to run any further.

At this time, an old man about the same age as Xiao Lan came over and sat near Xiao Lan. He drank with a water bladder in his hand, but he actually came to chat with Xiao Lan.

The two sat for a long time and didn't speak, and Xiao Lan also recognized the existence of the other party, after all, this was not his territory alone.

After a long time, the old man who came put down the water bladder and spoke first.

"Brother, where are you from?" said to Xiao Lan as the old man lowered his head and pulled the water bladder tight.

The ages of the two are about the same in terms of appearance, and the old man's title of Xiao Lan "Brother" is not with respect and temptation.

Xiao Lan looked straight ahead, and after thinking, he replied, "South." ”

He can understand the other party's intentions, and when a stranger comes to your neighborhood for a while, everyone has to have a heart to investigate. Xiao Lan chose this place largely because of the wide field of vision and relatively few people. There is no no-man's land around here, so you have to deal with the people around you.

"South......" The old man pondered over Xiao Lan's words, muttered, and finally said, "I'm from the north." ”

"How's the north?" Xiao Lan was interested in the north, he was really thinking about his next destination, and the information of each area was very important to him.

The old man shook his head and said with a gloomy face: "It's not good, people have died a lot, more than here." The family of five who came with me died with three children, and finally sold their wives and children for food, but in the end they still didn't survive and starved to death. Those who escaped were alive, and those who could not were killed. This incident is his own experience, and it is still vivid in his mind.

After the old man finished speaking, he continued to ask Xiao Lan: "You just came here?" Since Xiao Lan would ask about the situation in the north, in the old man's opinion, Bacheng had just arrived from the south, and he was not familiar with anything.

"Yes, I just arrived yesterday, and I went in and came out. Xiao Lan nodded.

"Dude, you're doing the right thing. The old man encouraged Xiao Lan's approach, and even wanted to applaud, he continued, "It's a cover at all. In these years, human life is cheap and worthless, and a mouth with one less food is killed. ”

Xiao Lan looked at the refugees who kept coming from afar, and did not reply, one can imagine how many of them arrived with hope and left with despair.

In the era of the Great Famine, tens of millions of people died, and human lives were indeed worthless.
