Chapter 465: Deliverance (2)
The name of the officer who followed Ruoyun was Yang Guang, and his position was General Dingyuan on the side of the East China Sea, and he was the official position of Zheng Wupin, and this time he received an order from the general to come and obey Chu Ziheng's command.
Yang Guang himself also has children, who are not a few years old from the children in front of him, seeing the fear that these children are now spreading from the bottom of his heart, Rao is iron-blooded soldier who went into battle also felt sad, and he was also very pity, so he squatted down and said, "You don't have to be afraid, we were sent by the imperial court to rescue you, you are safe now!" β
The children were obviously still immersed in their own fear, and did not understand the meaning of what Yang Guang said, but looked at Yang Guang with very vigilant and distant eyes, as if they were afraid that Yang Guang would eat them.
And these children are so numb at this time, they are not the slightest surprised when they see so many people lying in this full arena, they look indifferent to the death and life of such people, and they don't see it at all.
Yang Guang was afraid that the military aura on his body scared the children, so he deliberately let a soft smile appear on his face, and whispered what he just said once.
But the hearts of these children were obviously frightened out of the shadows, even if Yang Guang talked to them so gently and gently, they still sat on the ground with a numb face, not moved at all, but looked at Yang Guang more vigilantly.
Yang Guang was a little helpless, but he continued to say in a light voice, "Don't be afraid, we are all good people, the bad people who persecuted you on the island are dead, and we are here to take you home." β
When those children heard the word "home", their numb eyes changed slightly, and their eyes moved, but they were afraid that they would no longer trust anyone who had been trained by those people on the island, even if they heard Yang Guang say this, they still looked at Yang Guang vigilantly, and some people simply kept their heads down from beginning to end, and no one had a good expression and expression, as if they had accepted their fate.
Ruoyun saw the same situation, sighed, and said to a soldier, "Go, get some food." The soldier answered, and went down to cook.
After a while, the soldier followed another man, carrying two large wooden barrels.
Ruoyun took a look, there was a thick white rice porridge in a bucket, it may be that the cook on the ship heard that these children were weak, and put some big red dates in the porridge to nourish blood and qi, at this time, the wooden barrel exuded a fresh rice fragrance and sweet jujube smell.
In another bucket is a bucket of freshly baked shortbread, which is baked to an enticing golden brown that makes you feel like you're looking at it.
One of the remaining two buckets contains tableware and chopsticks, and the other holds a bucket of clean water, presumably used to recycle those used dishes and chopsticks.
As soon as the two buckets of fragrant food were delivered, they attracted the attention of the children who were doing it on the ground.
But because the two buckets were food behind Yang Guang, they all glanced at Yang Guang vigilantly, but they didn't dare to come forward to grab it.
But the eyes that looked at the food emitted a greedy possessiveness like a vicious wolf, which made Yang Guang, a man who went into battle to kill the enemy, couldn't help but stand on end.
He didn't dare to imagine that such a look would emanate from the eyes of such a few children who looked to be only seven or eight years old, and this look could not be the eyes of a human being, but the eyes of a naked beast, worse than the vicious dogs wandering in the streets.
Ruoyun had already seen such a scene when he was in the wooden shed, so he adapted faster than Yang Guang and the soldiers behind him, and when he saw that the food had been put away, he ordered, "Give it to them." β
The two soldiers answered, and one fetched the food, and the other took it and prepared to send it to the children.
Ruoyun walked up to those children and said sternly, "Now I will give you some food, don't rob it, everyone has it, if anyone robs it, there will be no one's share, do you hear?" β
While Ruoyun was saying these words, the soldier had already come over with a bowl of porridge and a shortbread, and the children had not heard Ruoyun's words, and they all stared at the things in the soldier's hands with a greedy, possessive eye.
Rao is the soldier is also a person who has been on the battlefield, his scalp is numb from the staring eyes of these children of several years old, and he can't help but slow down his walking, he glanced at Ruoyun with instructions, and saw Ruoyun nodding at him, so he took a deep breath, walked to a child, and handed the porridge and shortbread in his hand.
As soon as Ruoyun saw that he handed it over like this, he knew that things were going to be bad.
But before she could stop it, the child he handed over to eat had already started, like a hungry wolf, and before the soldier could completely hand it out, he had already bitten the shortbread in the soldier's hand with lightning speed, and the remaining two hands also snatched the soldier's porridge bowl quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly.
The hot porridge splashed on the hands of the soldier and the child because of his strength, and the soldier who was burned couldn't help but let go of the bowl with an "ah" cry.
And the child didn't seem to feel the pain, he didn't even say a word, and just stuffed the palm-sized shortbread into his mouth, and before he had time to chew, he plunged into the bowl and began to attack the porridge against the bowl.
The people around looked at the scalp numbness for a while, you must know that this is a hot porridge that has just been boiled out of a high fire, and that kind of hot mouth Cheng dΓΉ is simply the pain of that imagination, but this child wants to drink the porridge like he has no intuition at all.
Just when everyone was about to stop it, the mutation appeared, and the children who had been staring at the side were originally a little afraid of Yang Guang and these people, so they were a step late, and at this time they seemed to be suppressing the fear in their hearts, and they all thought of the child who was eating porridge.
The bowl of porridge that the child had just received was snatched by other children in an instant, and the child who grabbed it didn't care about the heat of the bowl of porridge like the first child, and directly buried his face in it, sucked the porridge, and even swallowed the dates with the core.
However, he only took a sip, and was snatched away by others, and his stomach was also kicked hard, because the boy grabbed too hard, and the remaining half of the bowl of porridge was spilled out by a third.
There was a weak child who couldn't squeeze in and couldn't grab the porridge, and when he saw the spilled porridge on the ground, he was overjoyed, and then he did something incredible to everyone, he actually lay on the ground and began to stick out his tongue to add the porridge that fell on the ground.
The ground on the island was full of sand, dirt, and small stones, and he ignored them, allowing the grains of rice to swallow into his mouth with the sand and stones, but he still had a satisfied expression on his face.
And the battle on the other side is becoming more and more intense, it has reached the time of seeing blood, one person punched the other person's nose, and then his face blossomed, and the porridge was also mixed with his nosebleed, but everyone didn't care, whoever held the porridge bowl, just take a sip.
This is what happened, but it actually happened in a matter of seconds.
Yang Guang and the others on the side were caught off guard, they only thought that these children were some overly frightened children, but they didn't expect that these children would become like this, similar to beasts.
When they saw several children competing for these food like this, the shock given to them was incomprehensible, and they had no doubt that if those children had weapons in their hands at this time, they would not hesitate to kill each other with weapons, but they were only a few years old, how could this be!
Just when Yang Guang and the others were stunned, Ruoyun, who had already foreseen, had already made a move, and her fingers were lightningly pointed, and with a few strokes, she hit the acupoints of these children, so that they could no longer move.
Seeing that the children were all frozen, Ruoyun breathed a sigh of relief. Looking down and seeing the child licking porridge on the ground, still sticking out his tongue and motionless at this time, Ruoyun's heart was sour, and he reached out to help him up.
This is also a precious grandson and son at home, and he grew up in the palm of his hand by the adults, how could the family have thought that their children would suffer like this!
Seeing this, the soldiers on the side also stepped forward to break the children who were fighting together one by one, and there was a child holding the bowl of bloody porridge, and the bowl was so tightly grasped that the soldier couldn't take the bowl from his hand for a while, and it was only the two of them who took it from his hand together, which showed that his strength was too long.
At this time, the children were quiet, only the child who still had nosebleeds, the blood in the nose was still dripping out, and the rest of the people were all blue noses and swollen faces, and the scene was very miserable.
"Why, how can this be?" Yang Guang asked in disbelief, in fact, it was a question, and it seemed to be talking to himself!
"Hey, these few are pretty good, they're not so ruthless, do you see the big ones in the back, and those gray clothes? If they had just been they, they might have died by now! Ruoyun pointed to the slightly older people behind him who were really sleeping.
"It's just for a bowl of porridge, just a bowl of porridge, how can you be so desperate?" Yang Guang really couldn't understand.
"It's not a bowl of porridge for them, it's their life. Here they have to ten or even dozens of people to fight for a bite of food, if you can't grab food for a long time, then you will only starve to death, so a little food is the source of their life. Ruoyun said.
"Do you know what I saw when I came? Someone is pushing a garbage truck and dumping "garbage" into the sea. And the "garbage" in that car is the children who are starving to death, or dying of hunger, and this kind of "garbage", I think it will be dumped more than once a day on this island! Ruoyun looked at the sea and said.
Yang Guang and the others followed Ruoyun's eyes and looked at the sea, listening to Ruoyun's words, they suddenly felt a creepy feeling, they felt that what they saw now was not a calm sea, but a row of corpses// bodies and graves! R1152
