Within three months, the new Great Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty only paid tribute to Meng Ge, and he didn't care about the contract between Wokotai and the Southern Song Dynasty, and directly launched an army of 400,000 to start the attack on the Southern Song Dynasty, but fortunately, Xiangyang had been recaptured under the efforts of Jia Yidao, but two-thirds of the land of Sichuan and Shu had fallen into the hands of the Northern Yuan, and a large number of surviving people fled to the south. In order to hold on to their political achievements, many officials along the road resolutely refused to let the people enter the city.

Xiaoying really can't walk today, looking at her grandmother and grandfather pitifully, and wants them to hug her. But grandma is now very sick, and grandpa's body can barely hold on, so he supports grandma with difficulty, carries Xiaoying's only younger brother, and walks forward step by step. Xiaoying had no choice but to bite the skin of her mouth, endure the pain in her feet, and follow her grandfather's steps towards an unknown place.

Along the way, they passed through dozens of cities, but whenever they were about to approach, the officials in the city hurriedly closed the city gates and drove their families away. Xiaoying asked her grandfather curiously: "Grandpa!" Why didn't they let us into town? ”

When he was resting, Grandpa looked at Xiaoyingzi lovingly, touched her little head and said, "Those officials are afraid that we will eat all the food in the city, so they don't let us enter the city." ”

"Isn't it okay for us to go in and eat just a little bit?" Xiaoying was puzzled and thought through her little head before saying such a sentence.

Grandpa only touched Xiaoying helplessly, and said with emotion: "Xiaoying, go to sleep quickly, we have to hurry up tomorrow morning." ”

"Grandpa, where are we going?" Xiaoying asked in a daze while lying on the ground where the straw had been laid.

In the middle of the night, there was a burst of "ouch", and all the wanderers were beaten with leather whips by the people of the city's government. The wandering people really had no choice, and they all prayed to these officials of the government: "Ladies and gentlemen, we really have no choice but to rest outside the city, and we will hurry away immediately, begging you not to fight anymore." ”

"You beggars, get up. Don't let the gentlemen bother, let the gentlemen go quickly, and it is best not to let the gentlemen see you again. "A fierce and vicious head, with a leather whip in his hand, fiercely aimed at these homeless people, who let himself be scolded today.

"Grandpa~! Whining! It hurts~~" Xiaoying was whipped by a servant's leather whip just now, covering the marks on her arms and looking at her grandfather and grandmother and crying bitterly.

The official who walked over just now was really a little unbearable by Xiaoying's crying, and immediately returned to Xiaoying's family and scolded viciously: "Damn, Xiao Nizi is not allowed to cry again, if she cries again." Grandpa, I'm going to sell you to the kiln today. ”

When Xiaoying's grandfather heard the official say this, he immediately covered Xiaoying's mouth and hurriedly apologized to the officer: "Uncle, you can raise your noble hand and bypass our family." ”

It's too late now, and the official who scolded just now now saw Xiaoying's face by the light of the fire. **The young Xiaoying is already very cute, and her crying appearance makes the officials even more moved. Xiaoying's grandfather looked at the officer's face becoming more and more wrong, and even hugged Xiaoying tightly in his arms and begged bitterly.

But the official did not feel compassion, and suddenly scolded loudly with a hideous face: "Okay, your brother is a bad old man, you dare to beat the official, brothers, come and lock this old man." ”

"Huh! Chen San, you're really useless, you actually let an old man beat him, let me see who is so bullish at this time. Du Tou ran strangely in front of Xiaoying's family, looked at it, and was immediately shocked by Xiaoying's face. Looking up at Chen San, who had been covering his cheeks, he knew what he wanted to do. immediately waved his hand: "Come on, lock up this old guy who beats the official for me." ”

"Yes~!" The four officials immediately came to Xiaoying's family with chains, and the grandfather was immediately stunned by this scene, and Xiaoying couldn't stop crying. The grandmother who had been in a semi-coma next to her woke up at this time, and looked at a large group of servants surrounding her family, wanting to lock up the old man, and suddenly struggled to get up and knelt in front of Du Tou and kept kowtowing: "Master, please~~, cough~!" Let's go around my old man. Please~~! Ahem. ”

"~! Where did the beggar come from~! Get out of the way to grandpa~! Grandpa kicked grandma to the ground, and grandpa immediately came to his senses, lay down in front of grandma, probed his nose, and suddenly shouted with a pale face: "Old woman, what's wrong with you?" Wake up, old woman. Old woman~~! Woo woo~~! Old woman, wake up~~. The sadness and anger immediately infected all the homeless people, and they all wanted to go forward and see what was going on with this family, which was usually ordinary among the homeless people.

Dutou felt that there were a lot of people approaching, turned around and was frightened by this scene, he immediately pulled out his waist knife, and shouted loudly to the people who were about to approach: "Damn, don't you want to live anymore?" Stay away from me, if you get closer, you will all be arrested and sentenced to beat the official with the intention of rebel~~! ”

The people no longer dare to move forward, they all know that attempting to rebel is a big crime, and they will punish the nine clans. But the anger in the eyes of the people can never be hidden, but in front of the violent institution of the government, they can only dare to be angry but dare not speak.

The grandfather, who was lying on his grandmother in pain, suddenly roared: "You beasts who eat people and don't spit out bones, I will fight with you." ”

Before Grandpa could get close to Dutou's side, two steel knives removed Grandpa's two waving arms. Blood suddenly splattered Xiaoying and her younger brother, who was still asleep, Xiaoying didn't dare to cry anymore, just stared blankly at her grandfather who was still bleeding and scolding.

They all looked at this bad old man who had lost his arms, "Haha~~!" With a loud laugh, he smashed the steel knife in his hand into his grandfather's stomach, stirred it, and whispered to his grandfather who had not yet lost his breath after pulling it out: "Old man, your granddaughter is mine, haha, you hurry up and report to the underworld." ”

Grandpa fell down with staring eyes, Xiaoying touched his grandfather's already bloody stomach blankly, and screamed: "Grandpa~~~!" Xiaoying fainted.

Vaguely Xiaoying heard a voice: "All people are equal in front of the God of Light~~~ committed ~~~You ~~~ God's punishment ~~~~" In the end, Xiaoying seemed to see a charity old man with a white beard, white hair, wearing white clothes, and a halo on his head to recruit himself with a smile, the more Xiaoying looked at him, the more he looked like his grandfather, she reached out to grab it, and her mouth wanted to scream. But I couldn't catch it, and I couldn't shout. She could only watch the white-bearded old man fade away with tears in her eyes, knowing that darkness had become around her.

"Wheel~Wheel~~!" Xiaoying gradually woke up in a bump, and she was at a loss when she looked at the unfamiliar scenes around her. Looking at an old woman who has been sitting next to her and her younger brother, Xiaoying is even more strange. She called out weakly, "Grandma, where are my grandparents?" Where are they?? ”

The old grandmother looked at Xiaoying, and immediately burst into tears, reached out and touched Xiaoying's head, and said with a reluctant smile: "Oh! Your grandparents, they have something to do, girl, you go to sleep first, and you will see them when you wake up. ”

Xiaoying fell asleep in a jolt, when a knight wearing a white cloak on a war horse came to the carriage and asked, "Mother-in-law, is she awake?" ”

The old woman wiped her tears, nodded, and touched Xiaoying's forehead speechlessly. "Oh! It's good to wake up, it's all because we're late, and if we come early, we won't let this little girl's family die in vain. Alas~~! The knight sighed as he looked at the sleeping little girl in the carriage.

The old woman relented, looked at the knight and said gratefully, "I don't blame you, if it weren't for you." We could all starve to death on this road with no future. The affairs of the little girl's family are all done by those officials who eat people and don't spit out bones, and I don't blame you. The old woman paused and asked, "Young man, does that place exist?" Can we really go where you say we are? When we really get there, will we have our own land and our own house? ”

"Huh!" The knight exhaled a heavy breath and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old woman, the place we are talking about exists, and as long as you go there, you will have your own house and land, where all people are equal. Our Hou Ye will be responsible for each and every one of you, and you can meet our Hou Ye for anything. Speaking of which, the man in white in the front team shouted that the knight was in trouble. After the knight agreed, he instructed the old woman: "Mother-in-law, please take care of the little girl and her brother, I have something to do first." ”

"Go, you're busy! I'll leave it to me, she's like my own granddaughter. The old woman smiled and said to the knight.

When the knight had gone, the old woman said to herself, "Alas! If what the young man said was true, how good it would be. After a while, the old woman fell into a yearning for the future.

After walking back and forth for a month, this team of homeless people has become larger and larger, reaching more than 100,000 people, and it is still increasing. All the cities along the way did not dare to open the city gates easily, for fear that the displaced people would enter the city and loot. But strangely enough, none of the homeless people approached the city, as if someone was organizing in it. What's even more strange is that none of the homeless people starved to death along the way, and none died of illness. But strange or strange, all the old men in the official mansion remained silent at the same time, watching the homeless people slowly walk in front of their cities one by one.

Finally in Chaozhou, the number of displaced people has increased to 200,000. However, this place is different from other places, and every city is generously open to the displaced people, as long as the people are not chaotic, no one will come to trouble the displaced people. In addition, there are porridge shacks and simple shacks set up in the open space outside the city, although there is not enough to eat as much as on the road, but now there is finally a place to sleep well.

Xiaoying has never been to a decent big city, looking at the high city walls, she excitedly led her younger brother and trotted all the way. The old woman in the back gasped and just chased and shouted: "Xiaoying, slow down, my mother-in-law can't run." ”
