(123) Determined to go out of the city and be besieged
84_84990 There was also a lockdown in the previous life, when a large number of victims rushed to Jinghua. What kind of place is Jinghua, it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the people who live there are all dignitaries, how can they let the victims disturb the peace and prosperity. The officials were very dissatisfied with the influx of victims, so they all went to the Holy Shrine. Originally, the saint was sympathetic and did not approve of the lockdown, but in the end, the plague spread, and the lockdown became inevitable.
At that time, Lin Mengyao thought it was just Jinghua. Now that I see that Tonglu has also sealed the city, I know that the cities in the world are only afraid of this!
Right now, Tonglu City has been sealed, so Fuyang will not be much better. If you leave this Tonglu City, it is very likely that you will not be able to enter any city. In addition to the plague victims wandering in the wild, it is likely that the people who will die when they go out of the city.
The carriage paused slightly, Guo Wei called "Young Lady", Lin Mengyao knew what it meant, and after a long time, she sighed to a few people in the car: "In troubled times, you don't need to follow me to take risks, just go on the road by myself!" ”
"Miss, how does this work!" Huizhu remembered that her eyes were red, and she held Lin Mengyao's hand and said, "Wherever Miss goes, the old slave will follow!" ”
Cuizhu also cried and opened her mouth: "Miss, in this life, don't want to leave Cuizhu alone." ”
Huizhu and Cuizhu's words made Lin Mengyao cry for a while, under the catastrophe, such true feelings are really precious. Outside the car curtain, Guo Wei also spoke: "Wherever Huizhu goes, I will follow!" ”
In the car, when Huizhu heard this, the hand holding Lin Mengyao trembled slightly, and her complexion changed slightly. Just before Lin Mengyao took a closer look, she had already lowered her head. She was entangled with Guo Wei in the first half of her life, and she couldn't be refreshed if she wanted to come to this second half of her life!
"That'...... Let's get out of town! Lin Mengyao said decisively.
Outside the car, Guo Wei waved his horsewhip, and the horse was in pain. The carriage "squeaked", and after all, it was out of the city.
There are two worlds inside and outside the city, separated by a city gate, and although the inside is also depressed, there is still a trace of prosperity after all; But outside the city, you don't need to lift the curtain to see, you know what a miserable scene it is.
The journey was not long. The carriage came to an abrupt stop. The body shook even more. Huizhu hurriedly supported Lin Mengyao, and Cuizhu asked eagerly: "Mr. Guo, what's wrong?" ”
Guo Jin's voice was a little anxious: "The victims stopped our carriage!" ”
"What are you doing stopping our carriage?"
The green bamboo is simple. I don't know the stakes, but Lin Mengyao and Huizhu know. What else can this disaster victim stop the carriage for, it is nothing more than money and food! Sometimes, however. If the disaster that can be avoided by breaking the wealth is not a disaster, I am afraid that these people are not greedy enough. Loot them outright.
It's just out of the city, and if something like this happens, how can it be good!
Huizhu lifted the curtain and went out, and Lin Mengyao was also heartbroken. Followed. This time she went out, but her heart was shocked, what kind of scene did she see!
The grass that used to be in patches is long gone. The ground was scorched black; The dense trees are now devoid of even the bark. Dozens of crows fell on the long-withered branches; As for the originally clear river, it has long been muddy, and several victims have come over in the mud. In my previous life, I heard Yao Ziwen say that during the famine, the victims would eat river mud to satisfy their hunger. However, where can this river mud satisfy hunger? Eating this sludge is nothing more than a trick to the stomach, and in the end, the victims will die because they don't digest it.
After Lin Mengyao came out, the victims began to surround the carriage again, pushing the carriage to shake for a while, and a pair of black hands stretched straight towards Lin Mengyao.
"Madam, kind madam, give me a stutter!"
pleading in her ears, how could Lin Mengyao refuse, and besides, she couldn't refuse. If they refuse, they are afraid that the victims will make a disturbance and immediately swallow them up. She asked Guo Wei to take the dry food and distribute it, and she looked back from time to time, hoping that the officers and soldiers on the city wall would see this scene and go out of the city to help. It's just that the dry food has been distributed, and the pair of dark hands have not been withdrawn, and the officers and soldiers watching on the city wall are also indifferent.
"Madam, okay, give me more!"
"Madame, we have been hungry for a long time, please be merciful!"
"Madam, my doll is about to starve to death, please, get something to eat!"
A pair of black hands and a pair of eager eyes, Lin Mengyao felt pity in her heart, but she was really powerless.
"We don't have any dry food anymore, we really don't-"
Seeing that there were still refugees rushing here, Changbao turned the bags of dry food upside down, but who would believe it? Those eyes were clearly fixed on the carriage. The pleading in his eyes gradually turned into a burning desire, which made Lin Mengyao's heart tremble, and she was very worried, afraid that in the time of not taking a stick of incense, those hungry victims would rush directly into the carriage.
The crow rested on the already bare tree, and quacked, making the silence even more tense.
Suddenly, a heart-rending cry came, which shook everyone's scalps and turned their heads to look. Not far away, a ragged mother was holding a three- or four-year-old child crying, and the child's face was bruised.
Déjà vu - in his previous life, Meng Ai choked once, and it was the same. And if that child is left untreated, I am afraid that he will be choked to death!
once watched Meng Ai die with his own eyes, and now that child is facing death, Lin Mengyao's mother's heart was stung. She clenched her fists, bit her lip, and finally jumped out of the carriage amid the screams of Huizhu and the others, and went straight to the child.
"Give me the baby!" Lin Mengyao stretched out her hand to hug the child.
The woman was obviously crazy, and stretched out her hand to push Lin Mengyao to the ground: "What are you doing, what are you doing, don't snatch my child!" ”
"If you still want to save his life, give it to me!" Lin Mengyao was also anxious, ignoring the pain around her, and pointed to the child's bruised face and shouted. Her screams instantly stunned the panicked mother, and even calmed a group of victims who were eyeing her.
The woman was stunned for a moment, Lin Mengyao had already grabbed the child, and greeted Guo Jin, who was following closely: "Mr. Guo, quickly, grab the child's feet and turn it upside down!" ”
Guo Wei responded and turned the child upside down, only to see Lin Mengyao slamming the child's back a few times, and the child spit out a stone. I thought this child was so hungry that he picked up a stone to eat!
The stone spat out, and the child breathed a sigh of "wow" and cried loudly.
The child cried and leaned towards the woman: "Mother, mother-"
The woman was stunned, but at the moment she was holding the child, eager to rub it into her body: "God, thank God forbid, thank you Madame for your mercy-"
Looking at the mother and son embracing each other, Lin Mengyao's eyes were hot, and she almost burst into tears - in her previous life, why didn't anyone save her Ai'er?
As he lamented, the neighing of horses was heard behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that some of the victims had climbed directly onto the carriage...... (To be continued).
