Chapter 214: The Tiger Plagues the Villagers
The people of Rock Town dragged their children and daughters to the front in a miserable manner, from noon to the starry sky, but they were still more than a hundred miles away from Gale Town. When they passed through the second town, they did not stop, and walked through the streets without even asking for food. People want long-term tranquility rather than short-term peace.
In Eagle Town, several people have told them about the rumors of passers-by, preventing them from going to Gale Wind. Some of them stayed, but most of them headed for Gale Town. Those few people in Eagle Town just want to recruit some family members for their master, so there are only a few dozen people who can be favored.
Stepping out of the brightly lit Eagle Town, people are once again in the wilderness. A cold wind blew across his forehead, as if a basin of cold water had rushed over him, and the dark wilderness was full of huge shadows. It seems that countless demons are waiting for their arrival, and then devour them one by one. The bold go ahead, protecting the woman and the child all around. Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and after more than three consecutive days of travel, he drove all the way to the periphery of Gale Town.
"Look, there's a fire, and the light of Gale is more brilliant than Eagle Town. ”
"Yes, the rumors of passers-by are right, it has not rested so late, and this Gale Town has a rich nightlife. ”
"Look there, there's someone cooking on the fire, and we're going to ask for some. ”
"Wait a minute, I see that these are all dressed in uniform attire, and they should be everyone's family members. Send a few people to talk about the tone, after all, we have come from afar, and it will be troublesome to be treated as a rogue. ”
Soon after, the victims of Rock Town deliberated and finally selected two shrewd men to communicate with those who worked. The two of them took a deep breath and walked forward, and after a while, they came to the gathering place of the crowd on the outskirts of Gale Town.
"Who?"
A majestic voice sounded, and the tall cannibal stood in front of the two with bared teeth. Most of the townspeople were farmers, and there were very few peddlers and pawns, so the sight of this tall man immediately began to tremble. In particular, a face with a pattern painted on it, like a devil in the dark night, almost made the two refugees fall to the ground.
But they are the hope of the whole Rock Town, and if they don't get the exact news, everyone else will starve. Their children, their women, their parents, and even the entire town of Rocks had no hope of survival. It's been three whole days, and the water I brought has been drunk. Because they fled in a hurry, there was nothing to eat, and the children were already screaming.
Clever people hunted hares and rats along the way, and I caught pheasants from the trees. But that little bit of food, even if the adults try not to eat it, can't fill the children's stomachs. The soles of his feet were worn out, and his lips were chapped and bleeding from a thick amount of blood.
"My lord, I'm here, I'm from Rock Town, and the food is ruined......"
"Yes, my lord, we were attacked by tigers......"
"Hearing that there is plenty of food and clothing here, let's find something to eat......
The two stammered, which sounded tragic, but it was the truth. The cannibals kept rolling their big eyes in the night, but they didn't see the hidden emotions. The humming sound made them tremble again, and it was clear that the terrifying-looking man had no intention of taking them in.
"Where to go back and forth, Gale Town has no roads. ”
"No, my lord, we are homeless, and we are here to defect to the Wei family master, can you please inform us?"
"Yes, my lord, please, help, the children haven't eaten for a day......"
"Let's go, don't disturb our work, delay the deadline and smash your heads, go!"
The cannibal man had a round of sticks in his hands, his eyes became extremely fierce, and his strong body stood like an iron tower in the night. They wanted to intercede again, but they gave up, and the person in front of them had no sympathy and pity. In addition to the fierceness of his face, he only has a majestic body. However, when they turned around and saw the villagers hidden in the distance, they lowered their heads again.
"My lord, please, give us a few bowls of porridge......
"Bang!"
The huge stick slammed into their feet, and a puff of smoke rose from the dust, and the two fell to the ground. The cannibals' voices grew louder and more vicious and angry.
"Toast without eating and drinking, give me... Put down the stick!"
A voice came from the cannibal as he picked up the stick, and in the light of the torches, a young man of about twenty years old walked slowly from a little distance. Compared to the fierce and vicious guy in front of him, he looked very kind, and came to them without hurrying with his hands behind his back.
"What's going on?"
"The head of the house, a few people suddenly came out, from Rock Town......"
When the cannibals saw the comer, they quickly lowered their heads and answered the question of the head of the house. At the same time, the patrol team that heard the sound also slowly approached. Wei Jinyun originally studied shooting in the mansion, but unfortunately he couldn't find the combination of white guns and black guns, so he came here with a scattered heart. The walls were already three feet high, and hundreds of guards and peasants were working hard.
"The food is gone, and the tiger attack is indeed a natural and man-made disaster. ”
Wei Jinyun nodded, and his divine soul was quickly released, and he made the surrounding situation clear. In the bushes in the distance, hundreds of people crouched, and from time to time there was the sound of grass and trees moving. Some of them still had blood on their bodies, and without exception they were all fearful and longing. Hunger and fear were even more evident in the night, and his arrival brought these moments to a climax.
It is indeed a group of people who have suffered a great calamity, and it is also full of conviction that they can survive three days from Rock Town here. At this time, Gale Town was building fortifications with great fanfare, and what lacked people was people, so Wei Jinyun was happy in his heart, but he still showed great sadness.
"We don't have any extra food, maybe I can take care of you for a meal, and you will still be hungry after a long time. So, it's not that I don't keep you, the conditions are too difficult, everyone forgive me......"
"No, my lord, we heard that Gale Wind has been blessed by the god of agriculture, and this year's heavy rains have not destroyed the grain. Therefore, we are willing to use our strength in exchange for a bowl of rice. Even if it's only for the children, we can drink water ......"
"My lord, leave us, we people don't pick or choose, we can do any job, just ask for a bowl of rice......"
The peasants of the two rock towns saw hope, and this young man also had a hard time, but they had already come here, how many people would die if they went back? Besides, the rock town had been entrenched by tigers, and could no longer live in peace, and even if they could live, it would be the same result for the winter without food.
"I know!"
Wei Jinyun nodded, his face was a little worried: "Old people, women and children, you can enter Gale Town first, but the young and strong ones will have to rely on your physical strength to eat." These walls will be built three feet high in three days, and I will take care of enough food, and if I can't complete the task......"
"My lord, yes, yes, we have masons, we have people who are proficient in civil engineering. ”
"Yes, my lord, we can complete the task, thank you for taking ......"
The two of them showed surprise and turned to stand up and shout to the back, but a snow-white color appeared in the night. The once ferocious tiger was revealed again in the dark night, and in an instant the two peasants were frightened.
"My lord, it's this tiger that has plagued the whole town......"
