52. Shura Field

Lin Mu'er shook her head, half got up, turned sideways and said to Mother Xie: "Just now the old doctor said that the shelter was crushed by snow, I look, I'm afraid it's quite serious, this ice and snow, and they are all old and weak women and children, don't freeze your life......"

"Master!" Mother Xie stretched out her hand and pressed the corner of the quilt, and without waiting for Lin Mu'er to finish speaking, she continued: "If the master is worried, Ming'er will send someone to take a look, it's so late, and I can't come in a hurry, let's rest first!" ”

Lin Mu'er glanced at Xie's mother, and slowly sat up, Xie's mother quickly pulled a big pillow and stuffed it behind Lin Mu'er: "Mom, go and ask Quanshun, what is the situation in the shelter!" ”

"Master!" Mother Xie is a little anxious, this time it looks like it is going to be three watches, and the master's body is just right, so she is afraid that she will get sick again!

"Mom, if I don't know, it's fine, now that I know, it's always good to ask, and I think I'll be blessed for myself!" Lin Mu'er looked at Mother Xie, her bright autumn eyes reflected the light, as if a little bit of broken gold was shining in it, hooking people's hearts!

Mother Xie was speechless for a while, sighed, and knew that she couldn't resist her, so she had to find a small jacket with cotton for Lin Mu'er to put on, fold the quilt, and then go out and call someone to pass the word.

Quanshun is also a clever in the end, although he didn't go to the scene, on the way to the doctor, he also inquired a lot, this will hear the master's words, the master just asked, and then he also poured beans into a bamboo tube and said a rough idea.

The master didn't sleep, and the girls were all waiting in the house, and when they heard the words from Quan Shun, they were silent for a while.

"Did the government send someone?" After being silent for a while, Lin Mu'er didn't feel a good feeling in her heart, and asked sullenly.

Weiyue lived outside, because Lin Mu'er had already rested, it was inconvenient for Quan Shun to enter the house to reply, so he could only stand under the eaves and wait, Quan Shun rubbed his frozen ears, and replied with a white breath: "I heard that Doctor Bai said that some officers and soldiers were sent, and I could only dig in the ruins to see if there were any alive!" But Doctor Bai said that most of the days have passed, and even if you can find someone, you can't expect to live! Now it's time to hurry up and save these pulled out, and one can live one, after all, it's hard to say that in this icy and snowy place, it's hard to say that good people are out all night, let alone these injured people! In the end, Quanshun, the five big and three rough men, are also a little unbearable.

"There's no other place for the government to place them?" Lin Mu'er asked in a deep voice.

"Don't hide it from the master, there are five large shelters in the city, all of which are crowded, two of them have collapsed at this time, and even if the other three can live in people, I'm afraid no one will dare to go in and live, this snow is still falling, and it will collapse if you can't keep it! So I'd rather hide in a sheltered place and squeeze in! Quan Shun sucked his cold red nose and rubbed his hands and said.

"How many people are there in these five shelters?" Lin Mu'er lowered her head and thought for a moment and asked.

Quan Shun frowned and thought for a while: "They are all victims of the drought this year, but at that time, the city defense did not all come in, so the old and weak women and children were put in, and it is estimated that there are still seven or eight hundred people!" ”

"So much?

Lin Mu'er was a little surprised, "How many people were suppressed today?" ”

"The shelter in the north of the city where Dr. Bai went is the largest shelter, there were originally more than 200 people, and about half of them were rescued!" Quan Shun said without thinking.

A few girls exclaimed: "Ah! So many people were pressed! Even Mother Xie's face showed a hint of unbearability.

"It's not, it's cold and snowy, I'm afraid I can't even drink hot water, cough cough!" The wind picked up outside the house, mixed with snow particles and hit the window edge, Quan Shun choked on the wind, and couldn't help coughing.

Listening to Quan Shun's words, Lin Mu'er pursed her lips, sighed, and said to Lan Xue: "Lan Xue, I will go out for a thousand taels of silver in a while, and go to the rice shop in the city to buy some rice, it doesn't need to be too good, just make a living!" Cook it thicker, so it can last for a while! He turned his head to Quan Shun outside the house and said: "Quan Shun, five teams of people will be selected from the palace guards to set up porridge sheds in five shelters, as long as they are refugees, they can come and drink porridge!" ”

"Master..."Lan Xue wanted to speak and stopped, although there was some income in the palace some time ago, but in the end, the family has a thin background, and today I opened the mouth of soup kitchen, and I don't know when it will stop, it is easy to ask God to send God, if the financial resources are not enough to stop the soup kitchen, I am afraid that it will end up inside and out!

"Ten days!" Lin Mu'er seemed to know what Lan Xue was thinking, "Let's just say that the Jin Wangfu will give porridge for ten days!" No matter how heavy the snow is, it will never be able to fall for another ten days, and after surviving this snowy day, the government is afraid that it will be able to free up its hands to resettle, so we can be regarded as worthy of our hearts! ”

Lan Xue nodded, and Ling Ran in her heart: "Okay, the slave will go and get the silver ticket!" ”

"Wait!" Lin Mu'er stopped Lan Xue, "More silver, buy some dry straw, there is snow everywhere this day, I'm afraid it's very wet, and some dry straw can also avoid the cold, and the cost is not big, we can afford it!" ”

"Good!" Lan Xue was clear, and secretly sighed that the master was really thoughtful!

"Quanshun, let's work harder today, hurry up and arrange for someone to go over, and the snow on the house in our house, Ming'er will also send someone to clean it up, the snow is heavy, don't have another accident!" Lin Mu'er rubbed his head, which was already a little swollen, and continued to command.

"Yes! The slave knows, and the slave will do it immediately! Quan Shun immediately responded, and went to the captain of the guard to transfer people.

"Master, are you resting?" Mother Xie looked at Lin Mu'er with a tired face, her eyes full of distress.

"Hmm!" Lin Mu'er rubbed her eyes, "Do your best, let it be fate!" Lin Mu'er was a little sad, knowing that he was just a drop in the bucket by doing this, but he was helpless, no matter when, only by preserving himself, he had the opportunity to help others, and now whether it is the Jin Wangfu or himself, after all, he still needs to rely on others to survive, and he can't help them too much, with a little self-blame, Lin Mu'er fell asleep deeply!

However, when the guards of the Jin Palace's palace rushed to the refuge, even the soldiers who had seen the blood were shocked by the scene in front of them: a large area of ruins and broken tiles collapsed, the blood of the big beach bloomed on the white snow like a bewitching flower on the other side, and the eyes of the people who shook were swollen! At a glance

As far as the eye can see, it is either an old man covered in stains holding a child's corpse that has already stiffened; Either a young child is curled up next to an old man who has long since lost his breath; Or sit and lean with a sluggish face, quietly watching this human tragedy! Or keep rummaging through the rubble to find their loved ones... Despite this, the scene was eerily quiet, except for the clicking sound of shoveling snow, it was almost impossible to hear the sound of talking! At this moment, where is the noisy and lively capital here, this is clearly a dark and demon-infested Shura field!

When the guards of the Jin Palace's palace lit a fire, the red fire reflected every desperate face, as if to point out the direction to the lost in the dark; When the rice grains in the pot began to tumble and the familiar aroma of rice spread, it seemed that the desire to survive was born in a desperate situation, and the desire to live was struggling! The snow is cold, cold to the bone marrow; The porridge is very warm, warm into the heart! Many years later, refugees who lived through the disaster still feel grateful to their grandchildren when they tell their grandchildren about the day!

Lin Mu'er stayed up all night, but she woke up at one o'clock in the morning, pretending to be in her heart, she was very dizzy, and she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so she simply put on her clothes and got up.

Lan Xue came over with hot water and waited to wash: "Why doesn't the master sleep more?" ”

Lin Mu'er took the hot handkerchief, covered her eyes, and said sullenly: "I can't sleep, by the way, how did you do what you ordered yesterday?" ”

"It's all done, the rice I bought at the rice shop overnight last night has been boiled, and it is estimated that the refugees have drunk it, but the dry straw is not much to buy, and most of the farmers keep it for the winter to make fires, and refuse to sell it!" Lan Xue took the handkerchief and wiped Lin Mu'er's hands carefully.

Lin Mu'er nodded, indeed, in this cold winter, he relies on these dry straws to heat and cook, if he sells it, I'm afraid he can't buy it elsewhere, so the whole family will be frozen! Lin Mu'er thought for a while: "In this way, I will buy it at the previous price, and when the government resettles the refugees, I will put away these straws and return them to them, although it is damp, but it can still be used in the sun!" ”

Lan Xue's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Master, this is a good idea!" I'll call someone to do it right away! ”

Fortunately, the snow had stopped this morning, and the sun was shining brightly on the thick snow on the ground. The stinging person's eyes hurt, and after breakfast, Lin Mu'er wanted to read a book, but from time to time there was a "bang-bang" sound of snow falling, and Lin Mu'er stopped reading.

"Master, Quan Shun is here!" Mother Xie came in to say goodbye.

"Let him in!" Lin Mu'er nodded and flicked the agate bracelet in his hand.

"Greetings to the master!" Quan Shun respectfully asked for peace, his face was red, as if he was gone, thinking that he must have spent most of the night outside last night.

"Excuse me!" Lin Mu'er raised her hand, "I worked hard for you yesterday, and when these ten days pass, I will not treat you badly!" ”

"The master is serious, and what the master orders is the duty of a slave!" When Quan Shun heard that he was rewarded, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, but he was still respectful and humble.

"Shelter

How's it going? ”

"Back to the master, the refugees have all drunk porridge, and some dry straw has been laid, and some seriously injured numbers are used first!"

Lin Mu'er nodded, "What about the government, did you say how to arrange these refugees?" ”

Quan Shun hesitated, frowned and said, "The slave came back early in the morning, and the government is afraid that it will not be opened so early." So, the minions haven't heard the wind yet..."

Lin Mu'er didn't speak, it stands to reason that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a big thing happened, no matter how much the government had to arrange it as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too much to stab the emperor and punish a crime of inaction, how could there be a countermeasure now?

"There are assassins! Catch the Assassins! Suddenly, I heard a sharp cry outside!
