Chapter 268: In the Troubled Times, Life Is Like a Mustard!

It was already night, and the whole willow ditch was dark, and only a few houses were still flashing with smiling light.

Rural families are very poor at this time, and most people can't even afford to light kerosene lamps, and at this time, people's life and entertainment are very little, in order to save kerosene, they all eat early, and then go to bed.

And these families who light kerosene at night are definitely wealthy people in this willow ditch!

There was silence in the whole village, the chickens and ducks had been returned to the cages, and some of the local dogs in the village were lying in the yard eating some leftovers, and there was silence.

However, at this time, at the east end of the village, a dog barking suddenly sounded.

This dog bark seemed to be just a prelude, and after he barked, the next moment, all the dogs in the village barked.

"Woo Woo ......"

More than a dozen dogs in the village barked together, waking up the whole village, and these farmers heard the dog's barking and reprimanded loudly, trying to calm the dog, but what made everyone wonder was that the dog, which used to be very docile, was now irritable.

No matter how much the owner scolded, the dogs all barked incessantly as if they had not heard of it, all facing east.

"Daddy, what's going on! Why do dogs keep barking! Go out and have a look! In the house of a farmhouse, a kerosene lamp was lit, and a peasant woman woke up her man and said softly.

Hearing this, the peasant man nodded, got up and put on his coat, and was about to go out on the boat, but he saw his mother-in-law and daughter hugging each other, looking out with some concern, and couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry, it's okay!" Maybe there's someone walking outside, I'll take a look and come back! ”

As he spoke, he opened the door and saw his own earth dog standing in the yard, barking loudly facing east, and his hair stood on end, as if he were facing a great enemy.

Seeing this scene, the peasant man was stunned!

They've had this dog for more than three years and they've never seen it like this!

"Is it possible...... Could it be that you have encountered a ghost? Seeing the appearance of the dog, the peasant man thought wildly.

The countryside is superstitious, and he knows from the mouth of the older generation that dogs are psychic and can see some evil things that ordinary people can't see.

However, just as he was thinking wildly, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the distance, the footsteps were uniform, and they were running towards this place quickly.

"What's going on?" The peasant man frowned, and was about to open the courtyard door to go out to ask, but when he walked to the door, he stopped again, raised his hand and pulled out a steel fork from the side, and then opened the courtyard door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw several neighbors standing on the side of the road, all of them holding steel forks, looking at the direction from which the footsteps came from with puzzled expressions.

"What's going on? Why did the dog bark all of a sudden on the big night? And why are there so many of these footsteps? Could it be that someone is coming? A peasant man asked with a puzzled expression.

"Who knows! I slept well at night and was woken up by the sound of a dog barking! Another farmer also said with some complaints.

Hearing this, the peasant man was about to speak, but at this moment, a terrible scream sounded not far away: "Oh no! It's a little devil! It's the little devil coming! Ah......h

What the!

Hearing this terrible scream, everyone was shocked.

Although they are peasants living at the bottom of society, and the news here is relatively closed, they know the atrocities of the Japanese army very clearly!

These little devils burn and loot, do all kinds of evil, and even take pleasure in killing, and their cruelty and evil deeds are outrageous, they all know this, and at this time, when they heard that the little devils actually came, their faces turned pale suddenly, and they all panicked!

One by one, like headless flies, they ran towards their homes in panic.

The people living at the bottom of the society, although they have their own survival wisdom, but the survival wisdom they have is applicable to the class they are in, once they exceed this class, they will panic!

And the Japanese army is obviously not at their level!

In their hearts, the little devils are a bunch of brutes, a bunch of murderous brutes! They also have guns, which are not at all something that the peasants can deal with!

So in this case, everyone panicked!

It can be said that the peasants are the toiling masses at the bottom of the society no matter which society they are in, although they are ordinary, but it is precisely because of them that they can constitute a country, and it is precisely because of their hard work in growing grain that the people of the whole country can eat and meet the most basic survival requirements of a country!

Such an important profession should be precious!

But not!

Peasants, no matter what society they are in, are the lowest existence! Especially during the war years, it was the agent who was in the chaos of war, and the life of the peasants was the most despicable and fragile, because whoever dared to cross the law could bully the peasants who knew nothing but farming!

Army, bandits, green forests, gangsters...... Anyone can bully a peasant at will!

In the era of peace, the peasants could still survive with their own labor force, but in the troubled times, they worked hard for a year to plant the land, just for food and clothing, but the rampant military disasters and bandits, forced conscription of strong men, devils burning and looting, bandits looting...... For all kinds of reasons, they can't even easily fulfill the most simple wish of survival!

In this era of war, their lives are cheaper than weeds!

They are like a weed rooted in the earth, harvested and harvested over and over again by countless passing armies, bandits, and devils, but they are still stubbornly rooted and living hard!

Life is like a mustard!

This is the current situation of the peasants living at the bottom in troubled times!

And at this moment, when the little devil rushed over, they took the home that they had spent their lives building with great difficulty, and they were easily defeated by the little devil in the blink of an eye...... And never get up again!

Just when these farmers were stunned, when the peasant man with the steel fork returned home in a panic, a team of little devils drove over, kicked the original away with a bang, and saw the peasant man standing in the yard with a miserable face, and a hideous smile suddenly appeared on his face.

ps: Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass, say important things three times!
