0036 Hungry people
Hashu
People who have nothing to do and don't starve to death for a while lie bored in the streets, seemingly losing interest in everything. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Those who are hungry and can no longer stand it are wandering around.
They don't have any goals, and when they see which direction the others are going, they hurry to follow, hoping to find something to eat with the others.
But they don't know that the people they follow are also aimlessly following others.
When the command center of people's actions is shifted from the brain to the belly, people no longer look like people, but more like a swarm of buzzing flies.
For Chen Xi, people in this state are very easy to command, not so much command as more accurate control.
It's like a knife in your hand, pointing and slashing.
"The Yongchang grain shop in Nancheng has opened a warehouse to release grain!"
No one heard who was the first to shout this sentence, and when people heard the news, it had become everyone knowing, everyone was talking, everyone was shouting.
"Nancheng Yongchang Grain Store has opened a warehouse to release grain!"
Those who were originally hungry and dying, those who had lost interest in everything, those who had become the walking dead, heard the news, and their eyes immediately lit up.
In a moment, all of them became energetic, scrappy, and enthusiastic, like a group of people running and shouting for the highest ideals.
In fact, for them, the ideal in front of them is the most noble.
Eat your fill.
What could be more important than this?
People gathered together, gathered from the east, west, and north directions, and finally converged into a team of tens of thousands of people to kill the Yongchang grain store.
The owner of the Yongchang grain shop was originally closed, but when he saw so many hungry people, he thought about breaking the fortune to avoid disasters, and took out part of the grain from the grain shop to the hungry people, and spent money to buy a peace.
However, when he saw the crowd that was still pouring in like a tide, and when he saw that the crowd gathered outside the grain shop was no longer in sight, and he could only see the crowd of people in the dark, he closed the door again.
The owner of the grain shop knows that no matter whether he breaks his wealth or not, disasters are inevitable, and he can't get over this hurdle today.
"Put the grain! Put the grain! ”
The hungry people outside gradually began to look at the slogans neatly, shouting and knocking on the ones who could hold them in their hands.
People who have no hope are not terrible, because they will gradually become depressed and destroy themselves without the spirit.
The terrible thing is that for a group of people who have no hope, they are given hope and told that this hope is false.
They cheered up when they were given hope.
Now we have to tell them that everything is false, and this spirit will not gradually fade and disappear into thin air.
Rather, it will turn into a frenzied rage, exploding like wildfire.
Just as people don't know who first spread the rumor that someone put grain on it, no one sees who the first person who threw stones like a grain shop was.
Then everyone was throwing stones at the barn.
No matter how strong the door of the grain shop is, it can't withstand the stormy stone attack.
Finally, the door of the grain store was smashed into a gap.
People frantically poured into the grain store, but they did not see a grain of grain - the grain had long been transferred to the cellar by the boss.
People were anxious to find it, but they couldn't find anything.
At this moment, news came from the crowd again.
"There is grain in the Shunfa grain shop in Dongcheng, and there are two large granaries full of them, enough for all of us to eat!"
It is said that after this experience, people should calm down and think about how credible the news is as soon as they hear it.
However, people who are hungry to the limit do not have the words "calm" or "think" in their minds.
People subconsciously start moving.
And the direction of movement -- just follow the others.
Although there are new places to go, this will not extinguish the anger in people's hearts.
So someone turned the anger in his heart into a real fire, and a fire ignited the Yongchang grain store.
As for what happened to the owner of the grain store and his family, no one cared.
The procession of the hungry people marched mightily towards the eastern city, and along the way there were people who fell, and it was impossible to get up again.
There are still many people who gradually can't keep up with the group, and can only watch the crowd go farther and farther, farther and farther, and finally become a small point on the horizon.
In the end, such a person will have only one result - to fall, to fall on the way to grab food.
Wherever the army of hungry people marched, every few tens of meters you would see a group of hungry people, lying on the ground like sacks.
Some have already lost their breath, while others are still gasping, just waiting for the final moment to come.
The living came to the Shunfa grain store.
Yes, there are granaries here, two.
Yes, each granary is very large, and it is not a problem to hold food for thousands of people.
However, there is no food here.
There is not a single grain, just like the Yongchang grain store.
Empty.
In an instant, there was a rare silence in the crowd, and the people became sluggish.
But soon, the people reacted, and they skillfully dismantled the woodwork, piled it up, and lit a fire.
Just when everyone was watching the raging fire in front of them intently, the crowd shouted again.
"There is food in the north city! There is food in the north city! This time it's Guancang! ”
Everyone breathed a deep sigh of relief, as if everyone had just been waiting for the news.
When they heard the news, everyone immediately began to turn around and head north.
They were so unhesitating, as if they had expected this to happen.
It was already completely dark.
It didn't matter, people picked up the wood on the ground, stretched it out into the fire in front of them, and made torches.
People who don't have torches don't care, so they move forward in the dark in the night, anyway, there are people in front and behind, left and right, and they don't lose it.
In the night, many torches of different sizes were moving forward, and behind them, it was pitch black and they were chasing after them.
People seem to have lost consciousness, all the foster care in their bodies has been handed over to their legs, and even why they are in a hurry is gradually blurred, only walking, walking, walking.
The line was very long, and by the time the people behind arrived in Dongcheng, the fire had already burned.
But the crowd did not stop moving, this time even the shouting of the crowd was omitted.
Hurry, light the fire, continue to hurry, a fixed path has been formed in people's minds.
This time, where they are going, I don't know.
This time, it is not known when they will go.
Time and space have lost their meaning, so what is the final destination of such a group of hungry people?
After dawn, the final dawn will finally be ushered in.
