Pinching his fingers, it has been two months and three days since Xiao Tianjian came to this world, and as soon as he closed his eyes, Xiao Tianjian involuntarily recalled his life during this time.

In the first month, he could be described as unbearable, he didn't even dare to think back to how he survived that time, and in his panic, he even put down all his dignity, and survived for a mouthful of food, and even knelt down on the side of the road to follow those hungry people who begged, just begging for food, but in addition to suffering from white eyes, there were insults and kicks, and even being whipped by officials, but he could not get a bite to eat, if it weren't for his luck, relying on the naughty skills he had practiced when he was a child, he killed a few miceI'm afraid that by this time he has already been thrown into the wilderness and become one of the countless starvations.

It is said that a certain traverser returned to ancient times, showing his strengths, how to be a bull fork, how to soar, surrounded by beautiful women, but he, a traverser, was so miserable that he couldn't be more miserable, God threw him in this late Ming Dynasty Chongzhen for seven years, and he just threw him into this land of Shaanxi where he was full of sorrow, and when he arrived here, he was about to face the situation of almost freezing and starving to death, Xiao Tianjian sat under the dead tree, but his mouth was bitter for a while, and his stomach was beating like a drum. He had never experienced such a feeling of hunger before! Even after graduating from college, no matter how smooth his work was, he had never been hungry, and when he thought of this inexplicable crossing, he couldn't help but scold God's bastard, why did he throw him into this damn world.

In the past month, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and has seen all the miserable people, cannibalism used to be just a legend for him, at most it was a symbol, but in this month, he saw someone barbecue a human leg in the field outside the city, and then eat it.

Many families cry aimlessly and cry along the road looking for their children, their children accidentally walk out of the house, and then there is only one result, that is, it is gone, the so-called gone is gone, not trafficked, when they are lost, their fate has been decided, and finally become the belly of the hungry and crazy.

Hunger plagued Xiao Tianjian all day long, except for looking for food, he could no longer think more, wild vegetables, elm leaves, bark, grass roots, these things he would never think about before, those days have become a delicacy in his eyes, but even these things have long been swept away by the hungry people, as long as it can be stuffed into his mouth, it has basically been swept clean by the hungry people, and there is nothing left for him to eat.

When people are hungry, they will be drowsy, but even if Xiao Tianjian is hungry and his eyes are green and his legs are weak, he doesn't dare to lie down and sleep, because some hungry people have been staring at him with bad intentions, he understands their thoughts, his body is considered meaty in this world, if he falls asleep, he may never wake up again, and the end is likely to be thrown into the cauldron by these hungry people.

Within a month, this kind of thing had been staged countless times in front of Xiao Tianjian's eyes, so that even he began to feel numb, he finally understood the meaning of the world as a melting pot, and anyone who watched such a tragedy happen repeatedly every day would also become like a stone.

Even so, he couldn't help but be picky about everything, criticizing current affairs from time to time, complaining, as if everything was not satisfactory to him, to put it bluntly, but when he arrived in this era, he knew that the life of the future is heaven, and this is a hell, which can't help but make him miss the life of the future very much.

One night more than a month ago, when he had just found a place to lie down in an abandoned village outside the city, he was targeted by several ill-intentioned men who surrounded him, one of whom took a knife and directed several others to try to kill him and then fill his stomach with his flesh.

It may be the instinct to survive, so that Xiao Tianjian burst out of the last potential in his body, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, and fought with these people like a madman, with his height and weight far beyond the people of this era, as well as the agility and physical fitness that he had practiced in basketball before, after he knocked over the person led by him with a wooden stick, he took the man's knife, and the others immediately scattered as birds and beasts, and fled from this abandoned village like a desperate person, Xiao Tianjian was able to escape the fate of being killed.

Finding a rag and wrapping the knife, Xiao Tianjian went on the road again, heading towards Fengxiang Mansion, when he was so hungry that he couldn't walk anymore, he finally figured out a truth, in such a world, what bullshit, benevolence, morality, are fucking empty talk, if you have such an idea, then the only thing waiting for him next is to die of starvation, such a troubled world can only survive the strong!

So he struggled out of the territory of Qingyang Mansion, and snatched a black vegetable ball from a beggar's hand, relying on this vegetable ball, he was able to survive, as for the fate of the beggar, he couldn't care about it, and the end was likely to be only one, when the beggar lost this vegetable ball, he had to starve to death, but in order to survive, Xiao Tianjian had temporarily thrown his conscience out of the clouds.

During this period, he didn't think about finding a livelihood where he could live in peace, but unfortunately, under such circumstances, he was a modern person who was like a different kind and couldn't even understand where his home was, and it was so difficult to find a livelihood in this troubled world.

He would have done it, and there was nothing wrong with keeping an account, but who would dare him to do this with a person of unknown origin? He can do hard work, but in the current troubled times, there are endless people in big families, and naturally no one uses people like him! Now there are bandits everywhere, Shaanxi is the place where the rebels started, the government is very strict with strangers, he is an unidentified person, if he is caught, he is killed, so he doesn't even dare to go to the city, let alone find any work to do!

So a person like him, there are not many of him in this world, there is a lot of less of him, it is estimated that no one will bury him when he dies, and there is no way to have any livelihood, except for relying on his strength to fight and rob, he can no longer think of any other way to survive in this world.

What's more, he knows better than anyone else in this world that the world is in chaos, if he remembers it well, it will be less than ten years since the Tartars entered the customs, and what place in the world is safe? Sooner or later, they will be occupied by the Tatars, and the Han people will eventually become the targets of the Manchu Tatars.

Xiao Tianjian thought of the humiliating history of China under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years, and he was depressed to death, and China has always been a big country admired by the world in this world, whether it is science and technology or economy, it is the strongest country in the world, but after the establishment of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the successive Manchu emperors were arrogant one by one, closed their eyes to the progress of other countries in the world, and rested on their laurels, resulting in China finally becoming the object of being carved up by the world powers.

What's more, Xiao Tianjian also knows some of the atrocities after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, although it is not clear, but at least there will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Han people, who will become the unjust soul under the butcher's knife of the Qing army, as soon as he thinks that even if he can survive in this world, he will have to shave off half of his head's hair and leave a pig's tail braid, Xiao Tianjian is depressed, and at this time he will run to be a traitor and take refuge in the Tartars, maybe it is a way to live, but can he Xiao Tianjian do this?

Xiao Tianjian asked himself, as a Han man, he hates traitors, even if he dies, he doesn't want to do this kind of thing, so what about joining the army? At first glance, with his stature and physique, it is feasible to get ahead in the army, and he may not be able to change the history of this era! But after calming down, Xiao Tianjian re-examined this problem, but directly dispelled this thought, according to his understanding of history, the Ming Dynasty officials and troops in this era are basically super poor in combat effectiveness, not to mention that the Ming Dynasty has already rotten the court, the Ming Dynasty has been rotten for more than 200 years, the system has long been ossified, and if you want to get ahead in this system and do a career, it is basically a desperate thought.

So after thinking about it, Xiao Tianjian finally decided to simply pull a pole in this troubled era, imitate the righteous army of this era, and also pull down with a vigorous effort, which is a hundred times stronger than the death of the nest at that time.

The countryside has long been empty, a large number of refugees have been unable to survive under the famine and military disasters in these years, either they have left their hometowns to beg for food in other places in order to survive, or they gather in the mountains and forests to become robbers, and the rest are either hungry people who can no longer walk and wait for death, or some local tyrants who have a large amount of money and grain in their homes recruit villagers to form villages to protect themselves, but these rich people will not take out their own grain reserves at all to help these surrounding victims, they have built earthen forts in order to keep their food and family wealth, Recruit some family members among their tenants, and defend themselves according to the fort, and the ordinary small group of rebels really can't do anything about them.

Although Xiao Tianjian grabbed a waist knife, but in such an environment of 100 miles of red land, there was still no way to live, and he could only rely on snatching some food from those refugees who were already miserable along the way, or using his specialty to beat a mouse to fill his stomach, the best luck, and even hit a half-sized hare with a stone, and finally hit all the way to the vicinity of Fengxiang Mansion.

But when he walked here, there was an extra black-faced man beside him, that is, the iron head.

After taking care of the horse, Tietou waited for Xiao Tianjian to lie down, and then found a flat ground nearby, and lay down on the waist knife that Xiao Tianjian gave him from the officer and soldier who was killed by them, and after closing his eyes, the scene of that night a month ago also appeared.

Tietou is also surnamed Zhao, the family is in Zhaojiazhuang, Qingyang Mansion, they have been the tenants of Zhaojiazhuang's Zhao Bencai family for generations, although they were poor before, but they can live a good life, at least it is not a big problem to eat enough, but for several years in a row, the sky is not beautiful, the drought and lack of water make the land basically no harvest, Zhao Bencai still has to collect rent according to the agreement, their family can't pay the tenant rent at all, even his little sister, was robbed by Zhao Bencai, when his family's slave went, and then the hometown was over the bandits, and I can't live anymore, Tietou's father had no choice but to abandon the rented land, and fled from Zhaojiazhuang with Tietou's mother and younger brother and him, and became a homeless person.

Tietou himself felt that he was a relatively lucky person, although he was the only one left in his family at the moment, but compared to those whose whole family died, he also left a Miao for their Zhao family.

And the reason why he survived was thanks to Xiao Tianjian beside him, he clearly remembered that it was a moonlit night, he had not been able to eat anything for many days, lying dying in a broken temple, there was no sound around him, he saw an unusually tall person walking into the broken temple, and glanced at him coldly.

He still remembers the scene of that night, the tall man with a waist knife, stepped into the ruined temple, he was very afraid, for fear of being killed by this man, and then roasted him, but he had no way, hunger had made him have no strength to defend himself, and even he had a sense of relief, if this man really killed him, then he would not have to suffer such a living sin, and he would be able to see his family in the underworld.

But the man seemed to have no interest in him, and went to the other end of the ruined temple and lay down, neither of them spoke, and the moonlight poured into the hall through the broken roof.

Iron Head was so hungry that he didn't even have the strength to raise his head, the only thing that could prove that he was still alive was that he was still undulating in his chest, and at some point, a sound sounded in the corner of the hall, and by the bright moonlight, Iron Head saw a fat and unreasonable rat who didn't know where to get out, and crawled in front of him in a big way, and then sniffed around, and climbed up the tattered incense case.

Iron Head wanted to pounce and grab the rat so that he could live a few more days, but unfortunately he had no strength and could only watch as the rat crawled in front of him, but there was nothing he could do.

The rat seemed to be laughing at the iron head, and after climbing up the incense table, it looked at the iron head with its small eyes, as if waiting for something.

The iron head suddenly understood that the reason why this giant rat was able to eat so much fat was probably by eating the flesh of people who had been starved to death like them, and it seemed that it was eyeing itself today, and it was going to feast on it after it had swallowed its breath.

He closed his eyes in despair, unwilling and unwilling to think about it anymore, everything is left to fate! Maybe if you die, you'll be free!.

But things didn't go in the direction he wanted, when he opened his eyes again, suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw the person at the other end of the hall move, only to see him wave his hand suddenly, and the big rat lying on the incense case suddenly let out a terrible squeak, rolled and fell under the incense case, and then twitched violently, as if it had been fatally hit.

The man lying on the other end stood up, strode over, grabbed the mouse, and slammed it to the ground, and the rat fell silent.

Iron Head watched this man's actions with wide eyes, and when he heard a click, a small flame lit up in the man's hand, and a bonfire lit up in the middle of the hall, and Iron Head almost screamed (if he still had the strength), he had never seen a flame in anyone's hand, and he almost thought that the man in front of him was a god.

After a while, Tietou smelled a long-lost aroma of barbecued meat, and this fragrance also hooked his long-lost saliva to fill his mouth again, under the strong temptation of this fragrance, Tietou struggled to raise his head, and saw that the person was roasting the rat he had killed on a bonfire, and the fragrance came from the skinned rat, even if it was just the fragrance of a mouse, at this time, it became a delicacy that he could not reach.

But the strong desire to survive made the hungry iron head not know where his body emitted a kind of power, he actually slowly turned over, inch by inch crawled towards the tall man with his back to him.

Then the next thing was that Tietou finally crawled out of the door of the Yama Palace, relying on half of the roasted brown and fragrant rat, and returned to the world again, and became Xiao Tianjian's first subordinate from then on.

In such a world, Xiao Tianjian could completely ignore Tietou's plea for help when he didn't know if he would be able to eat tomorrow, but he finally gave half of the big rat to Tietou and let Tietou survive.

Tietou started from the moment Xiao Tianjian tore off half of the rat and handed it to him, Tietou cried, he swallowed the half rat in a big gulp, and made up his mind, no matter what happens in the future, as long as this person is still willing to take him, he will always follow him, anyway, this life is given by him, how he wants to use it, how to use it! He has nothing to complain about!

But Tietou firmly believes that this person is a good person, and a good person should be right to do things, so following him to do things should be to do good deeds! Although Tietou is a little older than Xiao Tianjian, in his eyes, Xiao Tianjian is already his master.

As soon as the morning dawned, the iron head, who had regained some strength because of eating, followed Xiao Tianjian out of the broken temple that allowed him to be reborn, and walked in the direction of Fengxiang Mansion.
