The man looked around mysteriously, then lowered his voice and said, "A relative of my brother-in-law's family came back from the southeast. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info It is said that this matter has spread over there. ”

Meng Ge listened to it on the side, and his heart was shocked. Facing the sea to the southeast, it was from there that the emperor planned to take refuge in the sea.

Now, it is said that the emperor was hacked and killed, but I am afraid that the matter is true.

In the past, although the emperor had fled, there was at least one person in charge of the overall situation, and even if the people below wanted to rebel, they would not be blatant.

After all, the moral bondage of these years is not ordinary horror. To be rightfully on that throne, those people had to find another way.

This also explains why there are always young and middle-aged people who disappear for no reason in this period. I'm afraid that those people who are hiding in the shadows are waiting for an opportunity to move.

In this way, it is not safe in this mountain village either. Meng Ge thought about it, and his heart was worried and depressed.

The people in the village were all talking about the emperor in a whisper. Some of them may have guessed that some of the things in the town were related to the emperor's affairs.

However, after all, they are farmers in the mountains, and many things cannot be seen through and thought through.

What they care about is who will be the next emperor. If that emperor is still mediocre, what will happen to their lives?

Only Meng Ge feared that this chaotic world would become a man-made catastrophe. Innocent people, when they are ignorant and ignorant, have fallen into the abyss without knowing it.

Meng Ge also wanted to tell everyone about his speculation, but he couldn't open his mouth when he saw that those people were still enthusiastically discussing the emperor's death.

The world is so chaotic, if she provokes the panic of the people again, I am afraid that this disaster will come in advance.

Before Meng Ge came up with a result, Meng Ge's house was about to be put on the beams. Since the crops were planted, there has not been a drop of rain for more than two months.

On a June day, the sun was shining brightly, so hot that people wanted to soak in the water and couldn't come out.

After the girder is installed, the Meng Ge family's house is completed. According to the custom here, on the day of the beam, it is the time to feast the villagers.

Invite the banquet, how can you lack wine and sugar cakes? Therefore, two days before Shangliang, Meng Ge brought the eldest brother of the Zhu and Wang families into the town to purchase.

This time, Meng Ge was shocked to find that there were several times more homeless people on the boundary of Xiaoluo Town than usual. And most of those displaced people are mainly old and young, and women are weak.

It is rare to see young adults. Even those middle-aged men are very few.

Meng Ge didn't need to deliberately inquire, just walk among those people and guess the matter.

Those individuals are all victims of the disaster in neighboring states. This spring, after the heavy snow melted away, many places in these four miles and eight towns were flooded.

After Menggo and his spring ploughing were finished, the water in those places had not yet receded. As a result, spring ploughing was not caught up in many places.

That's it. Who knows where a very fierce group of displaced people has come out, and many people's fields have been occupied.

The end of the struggle against those displaced people is that everyone becomes a homeless person, and even a tenant cannot do it.

"Alas, my old man was hoeed to death by those men with a hoe, and his head was rotten. Those brutes who have suffered a thousand knives, why didn't God accept them? An old woman in her fifties, holding her young grandson, sat in the corner of the wall, crying to everyone around her.

The other, slightly weak-looking, woman replied, "Not really." The strong men in our village were all tied up by those people, and they drove out our useless people. Those who went to make trouble were hanged by them at the entrance of the village. ”

"My mother, who was taken away by those people and never came back, and my aunt. My grandfather, my father, and my uncle went to settle accounts with them, but they didn't come back. My sister and I were hungry, so we went out to look for someone, and when we came back, we found that our house had been burned. I took my sister out of the village and saw their bodies by the river, all of them dead. "A boy about eight or nine years old, holding a little girl of four or five years old, stood timidly under the city wall.

Meng Ge looked through the crowd, looking at the orphans, the young, the old and the weak, his eyes and nose were sour. Such a thing, with her alone, can't be changed at all.

It's just that she can't bear to watch those people suffer like this.

In his previous life, Meng Ge seemed to have a heartless life and made a lot of trouble. But that also points the times and occasions.

In fact, Mengo wanted to live better than anyone else. It's a pity that the people of that era were indifferent, and no one wanted to believe in an orphan who was born like that.

In order to survive better, Meng Ge will pretend to be indifferent and do other bastard things. Among them, it contains Menggo's deep malice towards the people and society of that era.

Mongo entered the town with an extremely heavy heart. I was going to buy more wine cakes and other things, but they were all drastically reduced.

The world outside is so chaotic, all extravagance and extravagance are shameful. Even, Meng Ge and them eat three full meals a day, which is extremely luxurious.

"Wine, just buy some and go back to make a show. Nowadays, there is a shortage of food, and the price of wine is high, and the quantity is also small. Looking at the victims outside, let's make some preparations for the days ahead. Meng Ge said with two jars of wine.

These two jars are only twenty catties of wine. Although it is a bit of a catty, it is only enough for the men in the village to drink half a bowl per person.

"It is said that there were people in our village who used to make wine. Since the last time Brother Yu held that dinner, there has been no wine left. In this year of famine, he did not want to spend grain on re-wine. "What the eldest brother of the Wang family is carrying in his hand is a large bag of dry cakes and candies, as well as some dried fruits.

The eldest brother of the Zhu family also said: "In these years, I can't eat enough, and what kind of wine do I make." That's all, it's a lot. In the future, we will have to tighten our belts and live. ”

As they spoke, they entered the grain store. This time, Meng Ge had to buy some food, otherwise the little money at home would not be enough for the autumn harvest.

It's almost July, and every household is short of food, and the price of food in the town has risen a lot.

Meng Ge bought 100 catties of white flour, 100 catties of sticky sorghum, and 50 catties of rice. That's enough for the three of them.

Meng Ge had a lot of strength, and he carried one hundred and fifty catties of grain by himself. The rest is carried by King Zhu's two eldest brothers.

When they came out of the town, Meng Ge and the others happened to meet someone driving pigs to sell. Mongo negotiated the price with the man, and bought both medium-sized pigs.

"Alas, these days, it costs food to feed these animals. If it weren't for the drought, we wouldn't be willing to sell these two pigs. The two men who sold pigs said.

The matter of the two silver goods, Meng Ge discussed with the two eldest brothers who sold pigs, and wanted them to send them to the outside of Luoshan Village.

"It's not going to work. We're all strong men. I heard that many strong men were lost in your area. The two men shook their heads like pounded garlic, and quickly drove away with the ox cart.
