Chapter 288: True and False Disaster Victims

After thinking about it, Wang Shihua took out a small bronze token from his arms.

The front of the token is engraved with a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon, the jewel held in the dragon's mouth is engraved with the word 'king', and the back has a large golden 'order' word, and a line of small characters is engraved below 'order out like a mountain'.

While handing the token to Uncle Tiger, he smiled and said, "Okay... How many troops do you have to mobilize? How do you go about spying on them? How to prepare for the outside world? It's up to you. I have only one request: try not to hurt my own people. ”

Uncle Tiger bowed his head respectfully, raised his hands above his head, and after taking the token, Zhengse said: "Don't worry, the old man is going to mess things up, you don't need to do it, I'll see you." ”

As soon as he heard this, Wang Shihua was really a little worried about the lives of those young and strong 'disaster victims': a fierce general like Uncle Tiger, who grew up from the perennial fighting, generally does not kill people lightly, but once he kills people, he only pays attention to four words...... 'kill them all...' When the time comes, it is expected that the heads will be rolling and the blood will flow like a river.

It's just that the military order is like a mountain, and since the words have been spoken, it is not easy to change it, so as not to hurt the hearts of the people below.

Waiting for Uncle Tiger to leave quickly, Wang Shihua turned his head to look at the west side of the palace...... That was the direction of Uncle Jing and the other uncles' residences.

He took two steps that way, stopped abruptly, sighed, and rode his horse towards the town...... It's been a day, and Uncle Jing hasn't come to see him, that is to say, the matter has not been investigated clearly, and it is superfluous for him to take the initiative to see Uncle Jing.

Before I entered the town, I saw that the left side of the east entrance of the town was full of young men dressed in patched clothes, who were around the bonfire, roasting glutinous cakes, drinking wine, talking and laughing.

This is to beg for food, or to find trouble...

Wang Shihua's brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything, but the second dog on the side whispered: "Family master, these people are quite good at looking at the terrain." ”

"How?"

"You see, they are all gathered in the forest on the left, so that even if we send men to drive them away, they will only have to burrow into the woods, and we will not be able to find anyone. Especially at night, if these people want to do something, they just need to drill into the woods and appear in the town. ”

Wang Shihua's gaze immediately sank, and he glanced at those people, but he didn't say anything.

Entering the town, Wang Shihua was keenly aware that there were a lot fewer business travelers in the town, probably due to the influence of those people outside the town, thinking that they were going to fight, and they were all in a hurry. However, there are not many homeless people here, and they are all scattered, and it is clear at a glance that they are by no means as organized and disciplined as those outside the town who pretend to be homeless, and they are really here to beg for food.

Lying under the eaves of the street with ragged clothes, dirt on their heads, and blank eyes, they saw Wang Shihua and others riding tall horses, straddled with knives and guns, and brightly dressed, and they all bowed their heads in fear because of the end of the poor to the woman, and they didn't even have the courage to come forward to beg for food.

Suddenly...

A little girl of four or five years old, carrying a broken bowl with a notch, ran over with a stumbling step.

The second dog, who was originally slowing down the horse, was about to step forward to stop him, but Wang Shihua stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Uncle, I'm hungry..."

watched the little girl struggle to lift the broken bowl to the highest, as if she thought that the other party would reward her with something to eat; A pair of big smart eyes under the unkempt face, eagerly looking forward to it; The pitiful face was gray, and after the immature timbre was finished, he swallowed his saliva.

Wang Shihua looked at her in a daze, and the little girl was also eagerly looking forward to it, looking at each other, time seemed to stop at this moment.

Until a woman rushed over, picked up the little girl, and ran back to the road.

"Stop..."

Wang Shihua never expected that he screamed softly, but the other party turned around and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging: "Uncle spare your life... Ask the uncle to spare his life... She's a little child who doesn't know how to bump into you, so please see her young age and bypass her......"

"Where are you from?"

"We are from Chenjiaping Village, Jiutou Town."

Wang Shihua's heart trembled: It's coming, the real victims caused by the famine are finally here.

"Since you're here to beg for food, why do you run away when you see me?"

"I heard that the head of the Heavenly King family ordered that the victims were not allowed to give alms, and yesterday he beat the victims again." Speaking of this, the woman looked up at Wang Shihua, and saw that Wang Shihua was looking down, her eyes were looking at each other, and she was frightened and quickly lowered her head, and the speed of her speech was much faster: "Uncle, we heard that the Wang family had food, so we fled here, and now, we don't dare to beg for food here, so we will go elsewhere." ”

Obviously, they made trouble first, but now it is rumored that I, Wang Shihua, am a big villain who not only does not give charity to the victims, but also beats the victims. It seems that the propaganda in this regard should be stepped up.

Just when Wang Shihua wanted to ask a question, the woman saw that Wang Shihua was silent, raised her head a little fearfully and quickly glanced at Wang Shihua, and secretly stood up to leave.

"Please wait a minute."

This time, as soon as she heard the word 'please' added, although the woman immediately turned to face Wang Shihua, she knelt down without being frightened.

"Ergouzi, go buy some food for their mother and daughter."

As soon as the words fell, the woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and did not forget to pull the little girl to kowtow, shouting, "Thank you benefactor... Thank you very much......"

This noodle naturally fell in the eyes of other begging people, and when they saw a play, they came over to kowtow to Wang Shihua and beg for a stutter.

Wang Shihua saw that among the twenty or thirty displaced people, there were old people, women and children, and young and strong. After thinking about it, he asked the woman, "Do you know them?" ”

The woman quickly looked up and replied, "They and I are from the same village." Benefactor, you don't know, the farmer in the field has been eaten by locusts, and now it has not rained for almost three months, and the farmer has long been gone, and we can't even cultivate the land, and we really have no choice but to come here, just to be able to survive with a bite to eat. ”

Wang Shihua nodded, turned back to the second dog who was giving money, and shouted, "Buy more, let them all have a full meal." ”

When the homeless people heard this, they kowtowed and thanked them.

Wang Shihua pointed at the three or four young men among these people with a horsewhip and asked: "They are all old and weak women and children, unable to support themselves, and they still talk about the past when they go out to beg for food." But how come you guys don't know how to take a short-term job? Even if you can't support your family, you don't have a problem supporting yourself. ”

A few young people, you look at me, I look at you, and then secretly glance at Wang Shihua, they are all a little embarrassed. In the end, the eldest man replied, "Reply to the benefactor." We also heard that the Wang family had food, so we went straight here to beg for food. But I didn't expect that not only would I not give alms, but I didn't even dare to find a short-term job for us. It is said that the head of the Wang family has ordered that whoever dares to hire us will raid his house. ”

At this time, the second dog came over with a few guards and a large bag of food. When the homeless people who were hungry and wanted to stick to their backs saw this thing, they couldn't bear it and rushed up. The second dog hurriedly roared: "What's the hurry? Both, both. Hurry up and line up for Lao Tzu, and make sure you have ......"

"The benefactors have spoken, hurry up and line up." The elders in the crowd also helped to establish order: "If you squeeze all the food to the ground in such a chaotic manner, you will be struck by lightning." Hurry up and get in line..."

At this time, a scene that made Wang Shihua sigh at China's filial piety and love happened.

The line was quickly lined up, and the young people lined up the old people in front, but the elders, who had already stood at the front, pulled the children in front of them. Some children receive food such as steamed buns, and they actually know to honor the old man first, of course, they eat what is in their hands and hand the food in the other hand to the old man...... Looking at such a touching scene, Wang Shihua felt that there was a warm current flowing in his heart.

"The old man's teeth are not good, so let the workers in the store hurry up and make more soup."

An old man immediately stood up and shook his fist at Wang Shihua: "Enough, enough, don't be so particular, we are already very satisfied if we can stutter." ”

Wang Shihua nodded with a smile, but glanced at Ergouzi.

looked at them with a smile, but he didn't expect that after the little girl who begged for food from him before received two big buns, she ate one and handed the other bun to Wang Shihua. also raised high, as if this was the only way to make Wang Shihua eat, and his immature voice was the same as before: "Uncle, eat... Delicious. ”

Wang Shihua got off the horse, took the bun with a smile, took a big bite, and ate it very sweetly, and did not forget to touch the little girl's head, and said with a smile: "There are still over there, you go and get more." ”

When the little girl ran over, Wang Shihua ordered the dog: "You take someone to ride a fast horse, and take a look along the way, how many victims are still in the town, call them over, and I will invite them to dinner." ”

Then with a sharp look, he stopped Ergouzi and the others from following, and came to the middle of this group of victims. Like them, squatting on the ground and eating buns.

After eating one, he refused the buns handed by others, and asked a few old people around him with a smile: "A few old people, you just said that the head of the Wang family ordered that you are not allowed to give you something to eat, but when I came over just now, I saw that there were many victims at the east entrance of the town, and they all had something to eat, didn't their things be begged for by the town?" ”

As soon as the old man on Wang Shihua's right heard this, he stuffed the remaining buns in his hand into his mouth, and wanted to speak a little angrily, but he was choked by the buns. Wang Shihua hurriedly helped him stroke his chest and shouted to the outside world: "Hurry up and get water..."

After a few sips of water, I finally eased up. After the old man's parents took a breath, they said angrily: "Those people don't talk about food, they even have wine and meat, and they are also considered disaster victims?" ”

At this time, Ergouzi came over with two bowls of broth, handed Wang Shihua and the old man a bowl each, and sat behind Wang Shihua by the way.

After the old man thanked him, he was about to drink the soup, probably the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, he didn't even drink the soup, put down the bowl, and shouted: "I see, they don't look like disaster victims, but they seem to have come over to deliberately find fault with the Wang family." ”

Speaking of this, after taking a sip of hot soup from the bowl, he smiled at Wang Shihua and said: "Don't listen to these people's nonsense, they are young and don't see the questions deeply, but when they heard that the head of the Wang family ordered the victims to be beaten, they thought that the head of the Wang family was a big villain, but they didn't think about why the head of the Wang family wanted to give the order?" The old man has lived for more than 50 years, and although he has achieved nothing, he still has this vision for looking at the problem. Ay~... It is no wonder that the main members of the Wang family ordered that they were not allowed to give us things and beat them. But you only have to look at their food and virtue to know that it is not too much to kill such people. ”

"Oh~... Listen to what you mean by this old saying, I don't like them very much? ”

"Like? Hum... If the old man can be twenty years younger, he will fight with them. Maybe the depression in his chest found a breakthrough, and as soon as the conversation box opened, the old man spoke without scruples......
