Chapter 497: It's going to be messed up (second watch)
As soon as the soldier spoke, the eyes of the people around him instantly dimmed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the scorching sun, everyone was silent for a long time. Even the scorching air seemed to stand still. At this moment, no one knew the panic in their hearts.
There was not a trace of coolness in the air, and it seemed that even the air was hot, making people feel hot and want to jump into the river.
The outcasts sat on the ground in a daze. Most of them were beggars from inside the city. Or the homeless people in the surrounding villages.
In the past, he could gain a foothold in the city, but now he can't even enter the city gates.
"We were given up by God, we were given up by the sacrificial temple. The court has given up on us..."Someone cried directly.
"I can't stand it, I can't stand it, let us go into the city. You let us into town. There are also many people dead in the city, will you let us live and die here?"
"Oh my God, open your eyes and see. Your people are going to die, and we can't stand it anymore. Some wept bitterly, and some scolded angrily.
Almost all of them were on the verge of collapse.
There were already signs of drought here, but several reports to the imperial court did not seem to have attracted attention.
Now there is no grain harvest, and the river is cut off. Since half a month ago, the city has sent a letter out in a hurry.
Now, there is no news.
Even people have begun to die in the city. These days are starving, sunburning, thirsty, and innumerable.
The more than a dozen carriages were quiet, and I don't know if they were affected by this atmosphere. Not even the slightest sound was made.
There was a faint riot among the homeless people outside the city.
Some of them were even so excited that nosebleeds erupted instantly, and they died on the spot.
The convulsive body emitted a slight odor, and he lost his breath in an instant.
"I'm going to smash this merit monument, I'm going to smash this merit monument. ”
"What is it that listens to the people's wishes and listens to the people's wishes, is he deaf? Is he deaf? Countless people in our city are calling him with their lives, is he deaf?
Gathered in front of the monument of merit of the past dynasties, it was raised and smashed like crazy. The anger continued, and more and more people joined in.
The swarming homeless people frantically collapsed again, as if this was the only way to vent their anger.
The expressions of the soldiers guarding the city gate were unusual. The monument of merit that is revered at every city gate is useless here.
"Let's go inside. After entering, don't say anything about Sangcheng, we have to wait. The priests will not give up on us, and the gods will not give up on us. The soldier opened the gates of the city with an indifferent expression.
The previous apathy was restored.
This city is waiting for the salvation of the imperial court and the arrival of the sacrificial temple.
Brother Zhou snorted softly since he entered the city.
There are many complaints in the city, and negative mental power is high. Half of the Northwest has an impact. Filled with a lot of impatience, violent.
Brother Zhou lightly withdrew his spiritual power. There are a lot of restrictions on her here, and her strength is not pure, so it is easy to make her mentally driven irritability.
At least, Fan Fan and those dozens of people had some influence.
Of course, Brother Zhou will not admit that he has always been violent. If she is affected again, then Dosan will be hehe.
Entered the city and shut out the collapse outside the city.
Inside the city, many businesses have their doors closed. Among them, the rice grain shop even had the door unloaded, and there were faint people looking for something inside.
As soon as a dozen horse-drawn carriages entered the city, people came by the streets. Seeing that it was not the support of the imperial court, most of them lowered their heads in disappointment and did not look at them again.
There was not a single flower or grass in the city, and everything was pale and terrible. The air of despair seemed to envelop everyone.
After walking around, I found an inn that looked slightly clean.
The carriage stopped, and the concubine got out of the carriage with a not very good-looking face. One after another, people came down behind him.
They all seemed to sense the strange atmosphere in the city, and they didn't say anything. There's always a faint smell in the city.
"Wufu Inn. "Look at the signboard, it's still new.
"Everyone, objectively, please, do you want to stay in the hotel?" The next person didn't even have to fight flies, and when he saw so many people at this moment, the yawn was swallowed suddenly.
"Our Five Lakes Inn is one of the best in the city. Please inside, please inside. "The shopkeeper has a sharp second-hand foot, and he immediately opened up.
Although there is no one in the inn, it is deserted but it is better to be clean.
Five lakes, it turned out that it was taken after the drought and took the same name Wufu. I'm afraid it's also the people's wish.
"Let's open some uprooms and bring some food into the house. Brother Zhou commanded lightly. Everyone behind him nodded in unison.
What Brother Zhou said was what he looked like, and he was stunned to see the shopkeeper.
However, when I saw so many people, I knew that he was a big buyer. Suddenly, he couldn't close his mouth happily.
Nowadays, inns are only a bit commonplace, and that's it, it's not bad to have a big deal.
"Rest assured, the food will be delivered later. It's just that everyone, our store will be closed at night. Don't go out, don't even open the windows. When the shopkeeper went upstairs, he didn't forget to say hello to everyone.
"What does this mean?" Ye Shizhou said. 、
The shopkeeper paused, and brought the water into the guest room to wash and it was so turbid that it was inedible at first glance. You can even smell a little earthy.
It's still the best treatment in the city.
When I entered the house, I didn't see the coolness, and it was even more stuffy. Only when they are close to Ye Shizhou, everyone can always be calmer. It seems to be a little cooler, too.
"In our city, there has been some riot during this time. Every night is a little restless, our inn has some martial arts, and these two days can be spent safely. You're glad to be here today, otherwise the night wouldn't have been peaceful. Xiao Er's face is not very good-looking, this half month, everyone who can go is gone.
But there are many large cities in Nuo, and there are not a few who have lived here for generations. Where can I give up?
Even the surrounding villages are also very difficult now.
The shopkeeper said a few words, and then went down to prepare some simple meals. It's extremely simple, and it's still sneaky and doesn't dare to reveal the slightest rumor.
Now that the city is going crazy, where can there be anything that can not be done.
The monument of merit is the faith of the people, and even the faith has been broken, but I am afraid that it will not be far from the riot.
Ye Shizhou didn't care about the environment, and simply washed with the turbid water. He sat quietly on the edge of the bed.
"The hearts of the people are scattered, and there will be chaos here...."The old lady suddenly sobered up again.
At this time, he was awake when he was crazy, and Ye Shizhou had already seen it.
The old lady is also a woman with a story.
Everyone thought that they had a premonition in their hearts, and they went out one after another and followed Brother Zhou to the lobby.
The gate was tightly closed, and four warriors at the door held iron rods in their hands. A nervous face.
When the shopkeeper saw everyone coming down, his lips moved and he didn't let him go back. In fact, he doesn't have a score in his own heart, so if there are more people, he can feel more at ease.
Night, at last, came.
