The night has passed the second watch, and the entire small county town of Xingze has long been quiet, and even the night guards in ordinary towns can't see half of it, only the unknown insects that come over as the weather warms up and chirp a few times from time to time.

In this silence, several figures suddenly quietly turned out from the high courtyard wall of the county office, and the person at the head was Gao Ming. After falling outside, he looked around vigilantly for a while, and after making sure that there was no one, he led the five or six men who followed him and went straight to Dongcheng.

Soon, the group came to a courtyard that had long been deserted, because it was already full of barren grass, and the collapse of the houses was not even as good as the makeshift shacks outside, so no one lived in the city. After turning back to the direction of the road again and looking a few times to make sure that his movements were not followed, Gao Ming waved his hand and led everyone to quickly climb over the courtyard wall, and then ran directly to the corner of the backyard.

I saw him squatting down, groping on the ground with his hand for a while, and then he had touched an iron ring, and then pulled it up hard, only to hear a squeaky sound that made people's teeth ache, and the originally flat ground suddenly rose, and a big cave appeared.

Someone next to him had already lit a fire to illuminate it, and an entrance to a black hole that allowed two people to enter and exit side by side was presented in front of everyone. Obviously, this is a cellar in the house. Without much hesitation, Gao Ming took the lead and walked down the ladder below, and the others quickly followed him.

Don't look at this entrance is not too big, but there is a cave below, with the faint light of the fire fold, it is enough to have a radius of dozens of zhang at a glance, and it seems that the entire courtyard is included in it. What was even more surprising was that in front of them at this time were a large number of neatly stacked sacks, bulging and full of things.

Gao Ming took a step forward and slapped one of the grain bags with his hand, and a look of pride flashed in his eyes: "None of them would have thought that the grain of the Zhu family would fall into our hands." Then he reached into his bosom, took out a porcelain bottle, and after a look, someone untied the bags in front of him, and asked him to pour the powder from the bottles into the bags, and quickly mixed them with the rice noodles.

"I'll take these bags of grain out later, and I've seen an opportunity to give them a steal in the past few days, you can always do this little thing, right?" After finishing his hands and feet and taking the bottle back, Gao Ming instructed again.

"Elder rest assured, we always used to take a handle when preparing food, and this little thing is naturally in hand." Several people immediately responded.

"That's good, let's go back. As long as you get things done this time, your credit will be small. Gao Ming nodded in satisfaction, and then returned to the top the same way. The others carried the bags of food and followed him back to the ground.

After a while, these people came out of the wall again and returned to the county office. And not long after they left, a figure flashed out of the dark grass, and I saw that he also came to the place where Gao Ming was just now, and groped for a while, and in a creak, the entrance to the cellar was opened again......

It is not an easy task to open a porridge shed to help the victims, and all kinds of preliminary work alone have to make people busy from the morning until noon, when they can prepare pots of hot porridge for the victims.

Every morning, someone has to send the firewood that has been chopped before to the porridge shed, and then carry the rice and noodles over, and then light fires in the porridge sheds everywhere, and directly boil the rice and noodles in front of everyone. The porridge here is much more complicated than at home, after all, it can't be too thick, otherwise the consumption of food will be too large, and at the same time, it can't be too thin, which will cause dissatisfaction among the victims, but it is also a technical job to do just right.

Fortunately, for those under Lu Jin's hands, after this period of experience, they have already mastered the proportions and tricks of it, so they are also familiar with it.

By noon, a white mist had risen from the cauldrons in the porridge sheds, and bursts of porridge fragrance had spread, attracting the attention of the nearby victims, and many people had already come over.

They were indeed so hungry that eating only two bowls of thin porridge and soup a day was a kind of torture for any adult, at most enough to keep them from starving to death. And after smelling the aroma of porridge coming with the wind, their stomachs are even more growling, and they can't wait to pounce on them now and snatch the porridge soup in the pot clean.

But even so, these victims who came over did not snatch anything, but just watched and waited for the time to come. Lu Zhen had already set a rule before, no porridge should be put until noon, and this porridge was given priority to the elderly and children, and the infirm were taken care of first.

In this regard, there were still some people who were not convinced at first, and some people even wanted to snatch it directly. As a result, they were cleaned up by a few men who were guarding the shed, and they were starved for three days, and finally these people became obedient and willing to abide by this unwritten rule.

As the day rose, with the sound of gongs, the porridge shacks finally began to put porridge, and the victims lined up in an orderly manner with their own bowls and pots, waiting for the people in front of the pot to scoop a large spoonful of hot white porridge into their bowls. If you get the porridge, you quickly run to the side, squat on the spot and eat it with a sigh, and you are not afraid of being hot, and you can lick the whole bowl in a few moments.

However, this person is too many after all, so every time after sending a part of the people, the pot will see the bottom, and I can only continue to order people to bring water and rice to mix it in, and wait for the second pot to be cooked before distributing. During this period, it was the busiest time for everyone, as they had to scramble to get food out of the back, pour water into it, and finally reassure the victims waiting in front of them, so that they could be considered multitasking.

Jin Jiu saw this opportunity, and when they were busy, he stepped forward and said hello: "I'll help you." So saying, he picked up a bag and poured the food into the pot.

No one would know that this bag of grain was mixed with poison, and as long as the victims ate it, someone would inevitably suffer. At that point, their chance will come.

In Jin Jiu's opinion, this matter is very simple, and there is almost no possibility of exposure. After all, he has helped each other in the past, and he has not seen anyone suspicious or refused. Although this bag of grain was brought by himself while he was in chaos, it was impossible for anyone to notice......

Just when he thought that everything would develop according to the established strategy, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, and snatched the grain bag from his hand. This change came so suddenly that Jin Jiu couldn't react at all, only exclaimed, the bag had fallen into someone's hands. He could only subconsciously scream: "What are you doing?" As he spoke, he raised his head again, but was taken aback again, and the person opposite was staring at him with burning eyes, with a strong murderous aura on his face.

Jin Jiu recognized the other party, it was a subordinate named Li Yuan next to Boss Zheng, and as soon as he was stared at by the other party, he was even more nervous. At the same time, there was also a commotion among the victims on the side, and it was not clear what kind of conflict had arisen here.

"You should know what I'm doing, this food is not what we want to use for the villagers." Li Yuan said, he had already reached out and pressed his hand on Jin Jiu's shoulder, so that he couldn't even retreat: "You can go back with me." He didn't directly point out the reason, but just said coldly.

In the case that he was caught, there was evidence in the hands of the other party, and there was a huge gap between his own ability, the only choice Jin Jiu could choose was to obey his fate.

At this time, someone had already opened another bag of grain and continued to boil porridge, which made the surrounding victims refocus their attention on this place, ignoring Jin Jiu's movements.

Almost at the same time, similar changes occurred in front of several other porridge sheds, and some people who tried to make a move were stopped on the spot, and not only were they taken away from the food mixed with poison, but they were also caught on the spot, so they had no choice but to be taken away and go to the county office.

At this time, in Lu Jin's room, he was looking at Yin Xiang in front of him with a smile, and he saw that the other party was a little hairy in his heart, so he put the teacup in his hand on a few sides and said, "Brother Zheng, why did you suddenly call me here?" What can I say, why hide my head and tail like this? ”

"Do you hide your head and show your tail?" Lu Zhen smiled slightly, but he couldn't see a smile in his eyes, but flashed two palpitating essences: "Originally, I hoped that Yin Gongzi would take the initiative to explain the truth, but I didn't expect that it would be at this time, and you were still pretending to be stupid." ”

When Yin Xiang heard this, his expression suddenly tightened, but then he smiled as if he was hiding it: "I really don't know what to explain." But Brother Zheng, I don't look like an ordinary businessman, what are you hiding is really curious. ”

"You are really good at what you are doing, no wonder those people will take you as the leader. Do you think your calculations will really succeed this time? Lu Zhen suddenly asked such a sentence, and the other party was flustered, so he could only say: "What are you talking about, why can't I understand everything?" ”

"Regardless of whether you want to plunge Xingze County into complete chaos for the time being, this time you will not hesitate to put innocent people to death in order to achieve your goal. How, do you need me to make it clearer? Lu Jin's gaze fixed on the other party's face, making it difficult to dodge, and then said word by word: "Who are you and why do you do these things?" ”
