Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, everyone subconsciously looked in one direction, gurgling belly chirps sounded everywhere, everyone smelled the aroma, this is the aroma of grain, oil and salt, since that night the sky collapsed, except for the occasional smell around the government and big households, I have never encountered it again, isn't there no rice? What is it?

"Get out of the way, get out of the way," someone shouted, and the aroma intensified.

Those leaning outside could already see that there were two strong men, carrying wooden barrels into the field, and the barrels were covered with lids, and hot air was coming out of the cracks.

Few people noticed that the messenger was already standing on a high place, and everyone was attracted by the wooden barrel, what was the delicacy inside, and the aroma made everyone's hunger even worse.

The lid was opened in accordance with the people's wishes, it was a rice ball, used to wrap the blades of grass, and the exposed rice was shiny with oil, it was oily, how many people were crowded forward, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, it was too gluttonous, didn't it mean that Curry could only eat more bran and grass roots? That's a lot of food

If it weren't for the strong men carrying the barrels with knives and axes, someone would have rushed up to grab them now

"Plop", some people can't stand the temptation of this smell, hunger bursts, but they don't have the strength to crowd to the front, and pass out directly on the ground, but no one pays attention to it at all, what is it when hungry faints, there are starving to death, these days, often one night passes, and a few stiff corpses will be lifted out of the makeshift shack.

"Brothers and sisters, fellow villagers, my brother encountered a difficult situation here last night, there was no rice in the library last night, and the bran was very small, it would be good to be able to make a dozen cakes, and my brother didn't sleep all night," the preacher said sadly.

If you don't listen to it, you don't have to eat, no matter how hungry everyone is, you can only endure listening, someone on the earthen platform is talking, and there are people below echoing it.

"That's right, yesterday I followed the incense head to sweep the warehouse, and saw that a few mice were thin, so what kind of food was there, and the bran was missing"

"There are only a dozen palm-sized cakes in total, what use can they be, fragrant and sorrowful"

In the crowd, everyone told me every word, and everyone listened to it without a match, although few people had visited the warehouse, but they also felt that there was indeed no food last night, and people didn't even want to think about it when they were hungry.

"I really have no choice but to burn incense and ask for help, ask Xu Zhenren of Yuncheng to bless me, ask Maitreya Buddha and the lifeless mother to help, just chant the scriptures until the second half of the night, and suddenly smell the aroma, don't hide it from everyone, I stopped chanting at that time, and I couldn't help but salivate."

This amusing remark caused a burst of laughter to sound below, and the scripture preacher continued to shout and said: "I was dumbfounded when I looked at it in the past, and in the wooden barrel that began to empty last night, there was a bucket full of rice balls like this, white rice mixed with sorghum, smeared with oil, and pickled vegetables, I thought that one bucket was not enough, so I quickly dismantled it and mixed it with the bran, and boiled porridge for everyone to eat, so it was good food, and guess what, I couldn't finish it at all, so I took out one more and made one more out of it, and I kept filling all the barrels and baskets in this house." ”

"It's so godly, Xiangtou asked us to get up and help, and we all saw it," someone below echoed.

"It's really not a few, one by one is full, it doesn't stop until dawn, and I have eaten several"

The feelings of the people below have been completely mobilized, they are already weak, and then they are hooked by this fragrance, and they are dizzy, and they also care about distinguishing the truth from the false, these words have been foreshadowed in front, and there are many people who should be echoed at this time, as if many people are seeing, so many people see that there is still false, and subconsciously believe it, and then it is fanatical, this is the manifestation of the gods, if there is such a good thing, won't everyone be able to eat a full stomach?

At this time, the incense head on the stage suddenly knelt down, and said hoarsely and screamingly: "I learned immortal art with Xu Zhenren in Yuncheng back then, and the living immortal Xu Zhenren asked me to bring that wooden barrel over, saying that this thing can be of great use sooner or later, and when it is of great use, it is when the West Heavenly Immortal Kingdom is in the world, and I know that the fairy country is in the world, and I know that the fairy country is in the world, and sure enough, I filled dozens of wooden barrels inside, and I received a hundred miles of transmission from my master, telling me that the West Heavenly Immortal Kingdom is coming, where everyone can be fed, clothed, and have a tiled house, not only to eat enough, but also to eat well, And the fish with meat."

If it is a peaceful season, even if you say this before the famine comes, people who are a little more sober will not believe it, but at this time, especially when you have already believed in the superstitious and superstitious incense smelling religion, smelling the confusing aroma of rice balls, and being forced by the despair and hunger of these days, you are subconsciously convinced, not to mention that there are people on your side who are constantly shouting and agitating: "I was startled at that time, and suddenly the movement of the old fairy sounded in the sky."

The incense head on the earthen platform was already in tears, and kept kowtowing in the direction of Yuncheng, the whole person seemed to be crazy, kowtowing and waving his hands and saying: "Brothers, I am going to the West Heavenly Immortal Kingdom today, and go to the hometown of Bliss to enjoy peace, Xu Zhenren is not willing to let everyone sink into the sea of suffering."

"The house is broken, the grain has been taken away by the government, there is only a dead end to stay here, and now it is too late to plant crops, look at this year, there is a big drought this year, and we can only starve to death when the time comes, we are willing to go with Xiangtou and go to the Bliss Immortal Country to enjoy happiness"

"We're going to go with Xiangtou, whoever doesn't go will let him die here"

"Xiangtou fast rice ball, give him one if you go, don't give it if you don't go"

"We are willing to go, we are willing to go to the West Heavenly Immortal Country, and live a good life with the immortals"

"Whoever doesn't go is a fool, and there will be endless food coming out of this cornucopia on the road"

The noise in the crowd is getting louder and louder, so that the hungry, desperate and weak people have lost their judgment, they don't know where to go, but one thing is very clear, without the relief of incense, most people can't find food, and there is no way to live, follow along, no matter whether the fairy country is real or not, they will not die here.

I don't know who took the lead, some people began to recite the scriptures of the Wenxiang Sect, and everyone recited in unison, the teachings of the Wenxiang Sect originated from Buddhism, and naturally there were scriptures to save the suffering and save the suffering from the sea of suffering.

In this time of confusion and confusion, reciting this scripture makes people calm, but it also makes people believe in the news of the Western Heavenly God Kingdom, many people become more and more excited after a moment of silence, this hard day is finally over, and they can finally get out of the sea of suffering, these two earthquakes, this exorbitant taxes and endless torture, what can you do when you die?

When people are not even afraid of death, there is nothing to care about, the reaction of the incense on the earthen platform is not as he thought, he can't help but be apprehensive, but he didn't expect that after a burst of chanting, the shouting suddenly exploded, and everyone was shouting: "Go to the West Heavenly Immortal Country, go to the Western Heavenly Immortal Country." ”

In the peacetime season, when there is no earthquake yet, so many people gather and roar in the city, and there will be messengers to disperse immediately, if they are not dispersed, the officers and soldiers will come, and even the local gentry and tyrants will come to the village brave regiment training, but now at this time, the government is too busy to take care of itself, and the gentry and tyrants are either dilapidated and dissipated, or only protect themselves in their own earthen villages, who dares to meddle in things.

There is only one fist-sized rice ball per person, and many people swallow it after getting it, and they burst into tears while eating, I don't know if it is to be able to eat more in the future, or subconsciously feel that they will not be able to eat it in the future

That is, on this day, the people who burned incense in all parts of Juye County went to Yuncheng one after another, saying that there was already a human immortal country there.

The crowd is rolling, several big families in the county are relieved, they are the top heroes in the county, although there are losses in the earthquake, but then they can keep their own well, even then they are nervous and abnormal, on the ground in Shandong, everyone is used to seeing the displaced people, knowing that these poor households who are as soft as sheep on weekdays once they do it, it is a beast that eats people and does not spit out bones, and it will be a disaster to destroy their own homes.

Therefore, when the Wenxiang Sect distributed the grain to them, they did not dare to disobey them in the slightest, at this juncture, the government was powerless, and their own heroic group training could not fight against the sect members at all, so it was better to be obedient.

In order to prevent the news from leaking, the big families were strictly ordered not to go out, which naturally had all kinds of inconveniences, but in the face of the threat of extermination, anything could be endured.

But this is nothing, the large households that can still maintain in the county have been extorted a sum of money and food, these are the same as the previous apportionment, no one dares not to give it, so they can only pinch their noses and obey their lives.

In addition to the pain, the wealthy and powerful families in the county are a little happy, and there are more people left, and there are more ownerless fields left, and their own fields can also be expanded.

More than 40 miles to the east of Juye County is Jiaxiang County, and more than 40 miles east of Jiaxiang County is Jining Prefecture, which is not far from each other, but the situation is very different.

This earthquake, the city wall of Juye County collapsed, dilapidated, there has been no relief, and Jiaxiang County is different, although the earthquake has damage to the county and outside the county, but soon there are repairs and relief, there is no other reason, this side depends on Jining Prefecture, many large households in the county rely on the canal to eat, there is money and food, and most of the people are doing things for these big households, the situation is far better than Juye and other places, the situation in Jiaxiang County is also the norm in Shandong, relying on the canal to be closer, how much can be subsidized.

The collapsed city wall of Jiaxiang County has been filled with rammed earth, and the collapsed houses inside and outside the city have also begun to be rebuilt.
