Chapter 185: The Flood
Tang Xu immediately pulled Gu Muzhi and said coquettishly: "Even if I will, I can't protect my sister from time to time, why don't my sister come with me?" ”
Gu Muzhi was stunned for a moment, looking at the rigid and serious martial arts master, who was looking at Gu Muzhi there without thinking, making Gu Muzhi feel like he was beaten by those teaching gentlemen when he was a child, Gu Muzhi immediately shook his head and said that he didn't want to.
Although Gu Muzhi said no, Tang Xu pulled Gu Muzhi every time he went to practice, and asked Gu Muzhi to practice together, and in the end, Gu Muzhi was a little impatient and said: "You go and ask your husband if he is willing to teach me, if he is willing, let's talk about it, forget it today, my sister is too sleepy, let my sister rest, okay?"
In the afternoon, as soon as Gu Muzhi woke up, he saw the martial arts master standing outside the door, with a look of wanting Gu Muzhi to practice martial arts, Gu Muzhi was in a hurry all of a sudden, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Master, no need, no need, I'm old." ”
Seeing that Gu Muzhi looked unwilling, the master had no choice but to give up.
In the past few days, the black clouds have been overwhelming, and it has been raining heavily for several days, Tang Xu followed his master to practice martial arts in the house, but he still hasn't quit the idea in his heart, pestering Gu Muzhi every day to let her practice martial arts with him, and constantly coquettish with Gu Muzhi, but Gu Muzhi is too lazy to practice.
The sky gradually got cooler, Gu Muzhi also put on long sleeves, it was a good sunny day, but suddenly it was dark and gloomy, Xiaolan said: "There will be heavy rain in the next few days." ”
Gu Muzhi looked at Xiaolan curiously, and asked thoughtfully, "Xiaolan, how do you know?" ”
"Girl, this day is dark and dreary, that is, the dark clouds are coming to the top, this dark cloud is more, this rain is naturally heavy, it is estimated that this rain has been several days, you see we have not rained before, a rain is a heavy rain.
Xiaolan was right, it rained heavily for several days, Gu Muzhi looked at the day as if it had been pierced, rumbling, as if someone had taken a huge basin in the sky and splashed it down from above, the gloomy sky was really overwhelming.
"What do you think about the people? They won't have any problems, this natural and man-made disaster will always be the only people who suffer. ”
Gu Muzhi shook his head in a trance, and said helplessly: "I don't know, but I'm afraid this natural disaster won't be a trivial matter." ”
The urgent letters in the capital were sent over like snowflakes, piled up one by one into a hill, accumulating a person's height, and it was written that the flood was flooded and the crops were all gone, which made people shudder, and Qin Boyong next to him was constantly processing the letters, and sent someone to speed up the process.
"All the food for the people this year has been washed away by the floods, and there is no food in several places. If we are so relieved, one day these relief seedlings will be gone. ”
Qin Boyong shook his head, glanced at the person next to him lightly and said, "Don't worry about it." ”
Qin Boyong was very busy, his fief was seriously affected, and he began to keep trying to find ways to raise food, looking for people to borrow, find grain shops to buy, and find the treasury to ask for it, anyway, no matter what, the people in the fiefdom had to eat less.
At this time, Zhou Xun decided to take advantage of this opportunity to win the hearts of the people, and saw that he had already hoarded the food and took it out and distributed it to the people, and set up a porridge shed in the city to cook porridge for the people for free.
For a time, many people called Zhou Xun as a great benefactor, saying that he was really selfless dedication, but everyone who drank the porridge sent by Zhou Xun had a stomachache and diarrhea after a while, so the people went to see the food in the porridge shed, but they found that it was moldy, and Zhou Xun's reputation was discredited and his image was lost.
"Bastard, he actually took some bad food to fool us, poor my eighty-year-old mother, who was already in poor health, and followed me through the flood, and there was no food at home, after eating this porridge, I had diarrhea every day, this week Xun is really damned, damned.
"And my youngest son, he has just been born, if there is really no way, how can we let him drink, I didn't expect to have diarrhea every day, what can we do? Who's going to help us? ”
The city is full of resentment and anger, and today's people's hearts have completely failed to stand the test of human nature.
Gu Muzhi was irritable with Zhou Xun, and didn't want to watch being a demon in Zhou Xun's mother clan, so he commanded that person to do this for a while, and commanded to do that for a while, so he took Tang Xu and Xiaolan to leave their mother clan and wander around.
Xiaolan's eyebrows furrowed, and she said to Gu Muzhi: "Miss wants us not to go out, I'm afraid of the flood at this time......"
Gu Muzhi was also a little hesitant, but Tang Xu had to go and see, saying that he couldn't stay in the mother clan anymore, and if he didn't go out again, he would get moldy.
Gu Muzhi went to Zhou Xun and said to Zhou Xun with a smile: "Zhou Xun, I want to go around the temple and pray for you and thousands of our people." ”
Zhou Xun couldn't stop it, so he nodded helplessly, and said to Gu Muzhi with a little meaning: "Ah Zhi must be careful when he goes out now, you don't know how scary the refugees in this famine era are." ”
Originally, Gu Muzhi was not a little scared in her heart, but when she saw Zhou Xun's expression that someone had already started to eat people, she trembled in her heart, but she didn't say anything, and drove a carriage to the east leisurely, and the place she went to was a temple.
The carriage swayed and continued to move forward, Gu Muzhi didn't want to reveal his identity, the carriage was the most simple carriage, there was nothing else to see on the outside, and there was nothing inside.
When Gu Muzhi walked to the main road, she saw that it was crowded outside, full of people, and heard many voices saying to her.
"Please, give us some food, please."
"Give us some food, my child has been hungry for days, please."
"Help us, give us some food, give us food."
“……”
Gu Muzhi looked directly at these victims for the first time, and looked at the famine on their bodies, and felt a little sad, but she listened to Xiaolan's words, and did not show kindness, and gave Xiaolan the food she brought with her bag.
He knew that at times like these, food was precious, let alone ...... When you are hungry, it is the most malignant test of human beings, she does not dare to test the humanity of human beings, and she does not have the ability to do so, Xiaolan hid the food tightly, let people drive away quickly, and even asked Xiaolan to take out the silver needle she carried with her.
Tang Xu looked around with a long sword in his hand, and was pulled down by Gu Muzhi and sat there, Gu Muzhi hurriedly shouted for the horse to run quickly, and the subordinates didn't dare to stop, and immediately rushed forward in the carriage.
