Chapter 195: Natural and Man-made Disasters
Five miles away from Zheyi Town, there is a village of more than 100 families, called Xie Zhuang. Of course, at this time, the original prosperous and lively scene can no longer be seen.
Although this side is some distance from Zheyi Town, it has also been greatly affected after the flood, and most of the originally neat houses have been washed away at this time, and there are traces of messiness everywhere. Fortunately, this is not the main affected area, and the response is timely, at least there are no dead people here compared to Zheyi Town.
As soon as You Wen came down from the official road, he turned into the village, and occasionally he could see the people with haggard expressions, which was strange to say, not long ago when he was in another town, it was still raining heavily there, and this time he would get to this side, but there was no trace of rain.
After thinking about it for a while, he secretly scolded God, pinned the firewood knife in his hand to his waist, and walked towards the center of the village.
On the way, he met someone who kindly reminded him to leave quickly, and he smiled and signaled, no matter how you look at him, he is just a dull child with a somewhat sluggish expression.
It has been a long time since the turmoil in Jiangpu County, and many things are still hanging in his heart, and he has not let go for a long time. When the officers and soldiers counterattacked, he followed those "like-minded" people to the south and stopped in the Qingxi area, probably because the people above also operated in Qingxi, and it was their group of people who were able to recuperate there.
And because of the events of that night, he had a problem in his heart.
Despite the eldest sister's repeated persuasions, it is impossible for his heart knot to be opened so easily, even if the eldest sister pretends to be the deceased, in his eyes, it is extremely sad.
So, after most of the injuries on his body were healed, he left Qingxi and came to Jiangpu.
contacted those people with ulterior motives before, and used some means to force those people to stand on their side. In Jiangpu for more than a month, he did a lot of things to take revenge. One of the biggest tricks is to threaten the Li family in the upper reaches of the Huangjiang River to build a dam to store water in several places upstream, originally he planned to have a period of time to prepare for the breaking of the embankment, but he didn't want God to help, it rained so long in a row, before he could make a move, the embankment collapsed, the flood poured out, overflowing tens of thousands of acres of fields on both sides of the Huangjiang River, not to mention, but also washed away many people along the way.
This kind of thing is supposed to hurt the peace of the world, but for a person like him who is mad, it doesn't seem to be taken seriously.
After doing all this, You Wenyi didn't plan to leave, first, he had to see the follow-up, and secondly, when he went back at this time, Qingxi would definitely not agree with his approach, maybe he would have to be grounded, and he could not care about others, except for the eldest sister. The fifth brother has died in order to save him, and as the person who loves the fifth brother the most, he dare not face a look from the eldest sister.
Staying here at this time, firstly, he can avoid these complicated emotions, and secondly, he also wants to find an opportunity to kill the newly appointed Jiangpu Magistrate.
Fifth Brother's Hatred......
He must avenge this revenge.
You Wenyi finally stopped in front of a fairly intact room, took a look, and then walked in and found clean clothes.
When I came out again, I had already changed my appearance.
Take the road, and the direction is the town of Zheyi.
But it was said that Wang Ning couldn't find any traces in the end, so he had to return the same way, Liu Shifang still didn't move, he pretended to be something, so he had to leave first, and he went in the direction of Zheyi Town.
Zheyi Town, on the hill slightly higher to the west, in the improvised simple bamboo shed, Sun Heng, who was sitting behind the bookcase, was pale, not far from him, a brazier was burning, thinking that the firewood was too damp, and at this time there was a crackling sound, and the flames were scattering. 59 Books
The teapot hanging from the flame spewed hot air and lifted the lid.
In addition to him, there was only Mr. Wen Tao in the shed.
This person was also pale now, wrapped in thick clothes, looking at Sun Heng, who was busy, he sighed in his heart. At this time, soldiers came in from outside.
Sun Heng saw that it was one of the groups of people he sent out to count, so he immediately stopped what he was doing, walked out, and said eagerly: "How is it?"
The visitor looked up at him, hugged his fists and said, "My lord, Mr. Wang was accidentally hit by a falling rock, and he has ...... He's dead. ”
After the soldier finished speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to look at him.
Sun Heng's movements froze, and he almost fell, and said with a crying voice: "How can this be?" After coughing violently, Wen Tao took a few steps forward, waved his hand to let the soldier who reported the news retreat, and then said: "There are still many things that need to be brought forward by you, you have to take care of your health."
Sun Heng turned his head and breathed a long sigh of relief: "What do the three families say?"
"The Wang family, the Zhu family said that they have sent people to set up porridge sheds in various places where disaster victims gather."
"Heh, at this time, these people are still ......" Sun Heng didn't finish this sentence, and instead said, "What about the Li family?" ”
"The Li family is more attentive, Lord Bo has spoken, asking everyone in the Li family to devote themselves to this matter......" Wen Tao said and glanced at Sun Heng, "They should know the priorities." ”
Sun Heng shook his head: "That's it." Instead, he said, "Wang Ning, have they ever come back?" As he spoke, he walked to the table, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to Wen Tao, "According to Master Du's news, this incident may be related to the people of Maitreya." ”
Wen Tao took it and read it carefully, and the note was stamped with Chung To's seal at the end, which shows that the authenticity of this news is very high.
Putting the note away, he handed it over again, and at the same time said, "Wang Gongzi, they haven't heard from them for a long time."
Sun Heng walked to the brazier, threw the note in, and in an instant, it turned into flying ashes, he didn't ask any more about Wang Ning and the two, he looked out with a solemn look, and muttered: "I'm afraid this rain will fall for a while." sighed heavily, and smiled bitterly, "I originally thought that after the summer flood, this year's autumn flood would not be serious, but I didn't expect it to be like this." He turned his head and looked at Wen Tao: "Along the Yellow River, I'm afraid this time is also a disaster for hundreds of thousands of people."
Wen Tao also has some news channels, and he has heard about what happened over there. The incident in Jiangpu is a man-made disaster, but in the north, it is really a natural disaster.
Just imagine how the emperor, who had just ascended the throne for a year, would feel when faced with these disasters, and then in a fit of rage, they would have to reshuffle the cards after the previous catastrophe.
From Sun Heng's own point of view, he is really ashamed of his trust in the emperor.
After the flood lasted for another day, it was no longer so menacing, so Sun Heng personally rushed to the river embankment to preside over the repairs.
Therefore, You Wen pounced, but bumped into Wang Ning on the way upstream.
