Chapter 67: On the Eve of the Storm

Hearing the news of the robbery, Meng Ge was not good. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

If it is really time to start infighting, I am afraid that in Xiaoluo Town, which is a border area, all the strong men will be in danger.

From the current point of view, Zhao Jiajun in this area of Jinhe County is quite reliable. I'm afraid that when there is chaos, Zhao Jiajun can't care about so many people under his command.

Is it possible, or do you have to hide in the mountains?

Mongo was agitated. They hadn't been out of the mountain for a long time. I don't know when this troubled world will be a head.

Similarly, Lao Xu is also worried. "At the head of my family, I have a son in charge of the house. If you are caught as a soldier, I don't know if you can come back. ”

Since ancient times, the change of dynasties has been accompanied by thousands of miles of corpses and rivers of blood.

The establishment of a new dynasty heralded the death of countless soldiers and many innocent people.

However, these are unavoidable. If the people don't want to die, they can only think of Fa'er to avoid the war zone, or to avoid conscription.

This meal, Meng Ge and Lao Xu both ate tastelessly. Yu Yang knew something. However, he was still a child, and he felt that those things were far away from him, and they were not affected.

Meng Mao is completely ignorant of the secret, and he eats happily alone. Sometimes he also helped Meng Ge, who was holding a smiling face, and Lao Xu, who had a bitter face, to clip a chopstick dish.

After eating all the food on the table, Meng Ge paid the money and left. This meal did not cost much money.

The main thing is that Menggo's dish of sauced beef has helped to avoid a lot of costs.

For this, Meng Ge is emotional. In this era, the inheritance of craftsmanship is very important and exquisite.

It doesn't matter what kind of recipe it is, as long as you can make something good, you can exchange it for some money.

Of course, Meng Ge never thought of relying on the seller in exchange for money. She's not good at her craft.

In his previous life, Meng Ge was a typical example of eating and waiting for death. She doesn't know anything except roaming the streets all day long and playing tricks when she doesn't agree.

At night, after lying down in bed, Meng Ge asked his two younger brothers: "In case this place becomes a battlefield in the future, shall we hide back in the mountains?"

This question was asked, and the room fell silent. In Meng Ge's ears, there was nothing except the sound of Meng Mao's gradually long breathing.

After a long time, Meng Mao moved, reached out and pulled Meng Ge beside him, and nodded vigorously at her.

Meng Ge knew that no matter what decision he made, Meng Mao would support it unconditionally.

Over there, Yu Yang, who was sleeping on the other bed, also spoke. "Sister Ge'er, I'm the only one left in my family, I want to live. ”

Meng Ge couldn't hear Yu Yang's words. It's about living. If you want to survive, then you have a better chance of hiding in the mountains.

In any case, they all have two years of experience in mountain and forest survival.

"Cheng, then I know. Meng Ge sighed.

This night, Meng Ge and Lao Xu didn't rest well. Early the next morning, the big guy set foot on the road back to Xiaoluo Town.

Because of the conscription, Meng Ge also lost the mind to find the boy who looked similar to Meng Lang.

Along the way, there are still groups of displaced people. There are those who go to Jinhe County, and there are those who are evacuated from Jinhe County and are back on the road.

It was only at this time that Meng Ge discovered that the Great Song Dynasty had reached the time when the people were struggling to make a living.

At this time, even if the people did not rebel, the imperial court would not be able to support it for long.

On the night I came out of the county seat, it was freezing rain. This is the first rain since early winter. Before, there wasn't even a single frost down.

Faced with this anomaly, the experienced old Xu sighed and said, "I'm afraid that the harvest next year will not be good." If there is no frost, it will rain first, and the spring of the following year will definitely come late. Maybe when it's time to fill the grout, there will be a big drought. ”

When Meng Ge heard Lao Xu say this, he asked him curiously how he knew.

"It's all passed down from generation to generation. It has only been winter for a long time this year, and before the frost has fallen, it has rained freezing. This winter, there will be a lot of snow. If there is a lot of snow, it will be flooded in the spring of the next year, and when the flooding is over, it will always be dry for three or two months. Lao Xu said with a bitter face.

Although he earns his income by driving a horse-drawn carriage, his family still has to rely on the land for a living.

Meng Ge thought of the south, which had been plagued by disasters in the past few years, and said: "The north has begun to cause disasters and famines, maybe the south will be fine." ”

Lao Xu didn't think so, snorted and said, "That's useless." Most of the people in the south have fled to the north to escape the famine, and there is no one to farm, and there is still no production. Besides, after all these years, where did they get the seeds to cultivate? Today's imperial court, it doesn't care about the life or death of the people. ”

After Lao Xu's analysis, Meng Ge foresaw the future of the people's lives in the next few years. I'm afraid that by then, the phenomenon of cannibalism will become more common.

I often hear the old people say that it is easy to eat, but Meng Ge still refuses to believe it. No matter how hungry you are, you can't give up your own flesh and blood to eat other people's children.

Now, after all this experience, Mongo understands. If you can't live, human nature will be useless. The only thing to do is to try to survive.

It was freezing rain, and it was difficult for a carriage without a shed to get on the road. Menggo and the others were forced to stay in the village where they were staying for two days.

In the past two days, Meng Ge has seen that the world is more difficult than before.

Xu is that everyone knows that the future will not work, and they also vaguely feel that the war is about to break out.

In order to avoid starvation in the future, the people in this village began to limit their food.

On the night he lived in the village, Meng Ge woke up crying at night. The reason why the babies are crying is that they are hungry and panicked.

The baby cried all night, so that Menggo and they couldn't sleep well. At that time, Meng Ge wanted to get up and get something for the two babies to eat.

It was Lao Xu who stopped Meng Ge and persuaded: "This is just the beginning, and the baby will make trouble once or twice." After a while, it will be good to get used to it. The world is difficult, and there is no way to do it, little brother, how many times you can't help them. ”

Meng Ge thought about it, so he lay back on the kang and covered Meng Mao's ears.

For the next two days, Meng Ge would always see the two spirited grandsons of the main family, crouching at the gate, huddled, staring at the freezing rain and swallowing spit.

Meng Mao couldn't see that someone was so pitiful, so he took the initiative to step forward and get close to someone. The two babies were probably hungry, and they didn't care that Meng Mao didn't say a word, but chattered around him.

Every time, Meng Mao carried two hard cakes. The three babies squatted on the threshold together, chatting happily while knocking cakes.

Of course, it was the two little babies who picked up fun things and told them to Meng Mao.

In the evening of the second day, the rain gradually subsided. Looking at the sparse raindrops, the older baby said to Meng Mao: "When the rain stops, I can take my younger brother into the mountains to find food." ”

That baby, who looks a little younger than Meng Mao, can already take care of her younger siblings.

Meng Ge couldn't help but sigh that the children of poor families were really sensible early.
