Volume 2 Entering the Beijing Division Chapter 130 An An Hunger
Seeing that the little girl was so hungry that there was only one skin left, Hou Shigui also felt evil, and quietly took out a piece of Hu cake from his pocket and handed it to the girl:
"Little girl, what's your name?"
"I'm a girl, my father doesn't give me a name, they all call me a girl."
In ancient times, sons were favored, and many girls were born with family members who were too lazy to choose names, and when they met those with a conscience, they would at most take a title like two or three girls.
This girl is also well-behaved, and when she got food, she tore off half of it and gave it to her grandfather behind her, and kept half of it for herself to eat slowly.
Hou Shigui was not in a hurry, and only waited for the grandfather and grandson to finish eating, and then asked:
"Where are you from?"
After some inquiry, Hou Shigui learned that these displaced people had fled north from Xiaoping, south of Chujing.
Although it has been autumn recently, it has been raining heavily for a month in Xiaoping, not only the fields have been flooded, but even the people's houses are not one in ten.
Under the displacement, the price of food is higher and higher day by day, and there is no place to live and no food, which is why there is this huge wave of displaced people who fled to Chujing.
After hearing these words, Hou Shigui was silent for a while.
I don't want to ask the government why it doesn't matter, if the local government of Xiaoping is promising, it won't be like this.
Looking up, Hou Shigui saw that some people in the long queue were hungry and fainted on the side of the road from time to time.
If there is still a family, someone will come forward to check it out.
But most of them fell on the side of the road, and no one stepped forward to help, so they died.
And from time to time there were people in the team who coughed and runny nose, and their complexions were dark but pale, which was a symptom of a long-term illness without medical treatment.
If this continues, not to mention food, disease alone can take away at least half of the displaced people.
"Brother, is there anything else? I...... I'm still hungry. ”
looked down and saw that only this girl was left beside him, but the old man didn't know where he went:
"Where's your grandfather?"
The little girl just looked at him with empty eyes, and did not answer.
Hou Shigui sighed faintly, maybe her grandfather thought she was troublesome, and when he ran into him, he left her behind.
There is still some dry food left, not much, but those who have been hungry for a long time should not eat too much.
And this place shouldn't be far from Chu Jing, maybe I can ......
"Wow!!"
As soon as Hou Shigui's thoughts moved, a loud cry suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
When I turned my head, I saw a man who had become thin and boneless lifting a baby high and then falling to the ground.
But he didn't fall to his death, but he threw the baby and cried.
There was also a woman beside her, like a madman, who wanted to pounce forward.
was stopped by the surrounding crowd:
"After eating this baby, we will have the strength to escape to Jingshi, as long as we can live, we can have as many babies as we want!"
But the woman did not hear, but threw herself forward.
It may be that all her strength is used to do this action, her mouth is open, but she can't make a sound at all.
Seeing that the baby was not dead, the man picked it up again, and waited to fall again.
"Stay!"
Hou Shigui took a few steps forward, wanting to stop the man.
But the man didn't listen, and raised his foot and kicked towards Hou Shigui.
A person who has been hungry for a few days has no strength?
Hou Shigui swept the man to the ground without much effort and took the baby with his hand.
But I felt that my hands were wet and hot, and when I looked down, I saw that the baby was covered in blood, and the cry just now was just a return to the light.
Now it's dead.
At this moment, someone shouted:
"There's something to eat!"
The surrounding refugees surrounded Hou Shigui.
One by one, they stared directly at the dead baby in Hou Shigui's arms, swallowing saliva that did not exist.
The homeless people didn't speak, and Hou Shigui didn't speak, but the girl stood beside Hou Shigui and grabbed the corner of his clothes, but those eyes were always inseparable from the baby in Hou Shigui's arms.
These homeless people are skinny one by one, with no clothes to cover their bodies, and they can see Hou Shigui's powerful appearance, and no one wants to be a bird.
The two sides confronted each other like this for a while, but Hou Shigui was still in a hurry and said:
"This place is only half a day's journey from Chu Jing, why eat people?"
Hou Shigui doesn't know that for these people who haven't eaten for a few days, don't say half a day, even a few hours can't last.
Some people hang on to their breath, and they don't know when they will fall to the ground.
So no one will listen to Hou Shigui's painless words.
Instead, many people quietly picked up the stones and sticks and went around Hou Shigui's back.
The back road is blocked, and if you change people, you will definitely be in chaos.
But Hou Shigui was not in a hurry, a killing intent rose from his heart, and the whole person's aura changed, full of a sense of fierceness.
"I'm done with this baby! If you dare, try it! ”
Hearing the sound of footsteps beside him, Hou Shigui didn't think about it, so he pinched it back and directly pinched the neck of a thin man.
The man was thin and weak, looking at his appearance, it seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew, Hou Shigui pinched him and lifted it up, and he actually lifted his whole person.
The man struggled in Hou Shigui's hands for a while and then stopped struggling, rolled his eyes, stuck out his tongue, and saw that he was not alive.
As soon as Hou Shigui's hand was released, he collapsed to the ground like a soft ball, and then swept everyone:
"Whoever else wants me to give him a ride, just step forward!"
Everyone was overwhelmed by Hou Shigui's momentum, not only retreated again and again, but even dared not even raise their heads and look directly at him.
But the woman, seeing that everyone had retreated, rushed up and snatched the baby from Hou Shigui's arms.
He fell to his knees with the baby in his arms and wept so loudly that he could not cry.
Hou Shigui didn't care about her, and left the official road with the girl.
These people were sobbing and coughing, and Hou Shigui didn't want to be mixed with them and contracted the epidemic.
However, what puzzled Hou Shigui the most was that this vast number of homeless people was only half a day's journey away from Chu Jing, not to mention seeing the people from the government come out to suppress the disaster, even if he didn't even see their shadows.
Just when Hou Shigui was puzzled, the girl's grandfather somehow found Hou Shigui again:
"Housheng, I thought about it, my girl is so smart, you bought half a Hu Cake, I lost it, you have to make up for it."
Rushing with one of them, there were still more than a dozen stout men.
These men are different from most of the homeless, not only are they skinny, but they are all red and oily.
Everywhere he passed, the surrounding homeless people were afraid to avoid it, as if they had seen a life-seeking Yama.
Without waiting for Hou Shigui to speak, a man behind the old man pulled the old man over and shouted:
"What nonsense! Old thing, isn't it this one? ”
The old man nodded like a chicken pecking rice:
"It's him, he must still have food on him!"
"Get out!"
The man kicked the old man to the ground, and the old man ate a mouth full of wet mud, and didn't dare to say anything else, so he pouted his ass and ran away.
The man looked at Hou Shigui again:
"According to the rules, the grain will be handed over and distributed by us!
Boy, and know each other. ”
Hearing this, those homeless people who were still walking on the official road looked at this place with a look of daring to be angry and unspeakable.
