After the woman in Tsing Yi finished speaking, she whispered a few words to the maid, and then turned back into the sedan chair.

Then a man took half of the gong and struck it, and three or two of them stood by the sieve basket and carried out charity in an orderly manner.

The cold wind blew through the steaming steamed buns, and blew through the thinly clothed children in the arms of the old man.

As if the old capital had become unreasonable, in the early morning of late autumn, the cold wind swept wildly, blowing the cheeks of these miserable people who had lined up for a long time, and they couldn't help but tremble their bodies, and on the bare hillside, they tried to tie a piece of hemp rope and a piece of cloth on their bodies to resist the cold chill in their hearts.

Fortunately, there is still sunshine, passing through the towering peaks in front of you, shining brightly, sprinkled on the whole land without hesitation, whether you are poor or poor, rich and rich.

In any time of disappointment or even despair, seeing the light of day will always make a person energetic and confident, even if it is a moment, or a thought, you have a feeling of rebirth.

The light lapped upon their simple and dark countenances, making their eyes and faces feel more peaceful from their long-term fatigue and anxiety.

There are as many as 500 people who came to Xizhen to survive, and they all look the same, all of them are generally lonely, ragged, and tired.

Time was ticking, and the hunger in my stomach began to turn into abdominal pain.

The cruelty of the world is like this, whether you have a lot of money in your pocket, you can barely eat a grain of water because of anger, or you are so poor that you can't eat enough food and clothing, it will make you miserable.

Many people in the rear fell down the hill due to abdominal pain, and they simply did not call for help, lying there moaning slightly, except for the deeper wrinkles on their faces, the rest was to accept their fate.

Even if the people next to him want to save it, they are only afraid that they will not be able to protect themselves if they try their best, and as someone continues to cry with joy with white flour steamed buns, they turn around and leave, and there is not much left of the steamed buns in the sieve basket in front of them.

Those who were a few hills away were a little happy to see what was going on.

There are constantly people who can't stand and fall on the side of the road, which will mean that as long as they persevere, they can live a few more, so the occasional rescue action is also stopped, hunger strikes, and everyone is in danger.

They came from all directions, as close as Shidong Town, three miles away, and as far away as refugees from the Central Plains, many of whom traveled in groups, but now they could only watch them fall one after another, but their hearts were powerless, which was also their fate in the near future.

The scorching sun was like fire, gradually rising on the willow branches, and the endless waiting added a touch of burning to everyone's heart.

"If this continues, I'm afraid that these people will suffer, what should I do?" Fang Qinghan gently opened a corner of the curtain with his hand, and looked at the rising sun with a slight frown.

The people in the queue in front of them gradually let out a sound of surprise, and it turned out that they saw a few family members hurriedly rummaging through the baskets and no more food was found.

"How can we live without food? Finally, it was my turn, but you didn't! Someone stretched out his swarthy and shriveled hands and grabbed the bewildered family member on the side.

"You, what's this called? Could it be that I have no eyes, and I will die here if I wade through mountains and rivers! "Some of them have begun to cry, and it is not easy for them, but they are playing tricks.

When the few people who finally received the pasta heard these words, they all began to gobble it up after glancing, choking and sobbing and still guarding all sides, afraid that the people on the side would take the opportunity to snatch it, and the life-sustaining food that could still be held on would be gone.

"Sister, all the pasta has been distributed, but this ......" Looking at the team in front of her, which was still like a long dragon, the maid couldn't help but look embarrassed, and whispered to the curtain.

No one could have imagined that the number of people receiving relief today would be three times as many as in previous days.

"Cuiyu, you go back and bring a letter to your father first, and ask the old man to tell the kitchen to hurry up and make five hundred white-flour buns." Patting the maid's hand, Fang Qinghan got out of the sedan chair, looked at the people beating their chests in front of him, and said softly: "Don't forget to bring Ah Long and Ah Wu and a few of them." ”

"No, sister, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to be here alone, if you ...... The lord will not spare me. Holding her sister's arm, the maid was a little reluctant to hold her nose.

"Be obedient, leave it to me here! You should go back and get this done first, and then it's not too late to rush over and rescue the driver. The sister snorted softly and said angrily.

"Yes, sister." The maid Cuiyu looked back at the people all over the mountains, and the sorrow on her face was even worse, and she couldn't care about a few words, and hurriedly retreated.

..........................................

"Huh? You see, this maid left with a few family members, why did she panic? The young man who had just grabbed the family was puzzled at the moment, staring straight in the direction of the maid's return.

"Then you need to ask? Of course, I went back to get pasta. The old man on the side smiled heartily and continued: "Don't worry, Sister Fang is kind-hearted and Bodhisattva-hearted, so naturally she won't let me go back empty-handed." ”

"Yes! In these years, Miss Fang has already helped many women and children. The old man's laughter suddenly became very kind, and someone happily echoed: "Get up, we really have to thank Miss Fang for those who can't speak or act!" ”

"Thank you, Sister Fang!"

"Thank you, Miss Fang, for saving your life!"

"This is the responsibility of Yunjitang, and I hope that your uncles will not get up like this again, today is Qinghan's thoughtfulness and negligence, which caused your uncles to wait for a long time on an empty stomach, and Qinghan is really guilty." Hearing this, Fang Qinghan stepped forward, leaned over and saluted everyone: "But uncles, please rest assured, Qinghan has arranged for Cuiyu to go back to the house to get some cooked food back, and everyone will definitely be cherry."

"Thank you Sister Fang for that!"

When they heard about the food, everyone was in high spirits and smiling.

At this moment, warm applause came from far and near by the stream, and someone came laughing loudly.

Everyone looked for prestige, only to see a young man in gray cloth with a kind and warm smile.

Lazily stretched his waist, twenty-three or fourteen years old, dressed simply and plainly, with a few big holes sewn in the waist, and looked like an old-fashioned prestige predecessor in his gestures.

His appearance is not delicate, but his eyes are bright, his long hair is braided behind him in tufts, and with a long sword hanging from his waist, the dark green scabbard invisibly shows a bit of nobility.

When he walked, the golden sunlight hit his body, and there was a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel like a spring breeze, and there was a strange feeling that he did not come out of place.

"The people regard food as precious, Sister Fang was born in a rich and famous family, but she deeply felt the suffering of the people in the dawn, helped the people in danger, and carried the heavy burden to resist herself. The cloth-clothed young man slightly clenched his fists towards everyone, and bowed his head and signaled: "When the big guy is waiting for Sister Fang's pasta, you might as well come and try my Ji Mourao's craftsmanship first." ”

The young man in cloth who claimed to be surnamed 'Ji' spoke elegantly and was full of sincerity, and the few people in front of him glanced at each other, and then looked behind the young man in cloth one after another.

"How can there be so many kinds of grilled fish here, such a degree of browning, it seems that it has been tested for an hour with a fine fire." Someone said with a saliva in his mouth.

"I'm afraid that the chef of Jingzhou Jade Kitchen may not have made so many dishes."

At some point, several open-top carriages were parked behind the cloth-clothed boy, each with a variety of delicacies on them.

"What are you waiting for? Savor it to your heart's content! Priority was given to the elderly, women, children and children, and the young man in cloth smiled and waved his hand, and everyone couldn't hold back their saliva anymore, and they all started to move.

The golden sauce is squeezed out of the delicious texture of the fish, and then flows into the stomach with the flavor of fusion, and when you are not hungry, you will feel that the taste of the world is nothing more than that, let alone hunger at this time.

Fortunately, the bone spurs of each grilled fish are smooth and can be swallowed without burden, otherwise I am afraid that everyone will not be able to eat so freely at this moment.

Under the warm sunshine, the originally cold mountain seemed to be scorching, and the originally huge begging team was gradually shrinking.

Everyone who has eaten and clothed does not continue to be greedy or stealing, they will give up their place on their own and turn around to support those who have not eaten behind them, so that everyone can get as much food as possible.

After everyone has eaten and drunk, they begin to pay attention to the source of food, after all, as far as they know, swimming fish in the water are not so easy to catch, let alone in this harsh environment where the cold ground is frozen and there is no food in the stomach.

There is no guarantee that they will be able to catch the fish after all the effort, because they prefer to believe that the minimum movement will definitely reduce the digestion of the food in the belly, so as to conserve their energy until the next morning.

For this life-saving method, the cloth-clothed young man did not plan to hide it privately, he smiled at everyone, and then came out with his own method.

"It's actually very simple, and it only takes a group of four or five people to complete it easily. There are many fertile fish hidden in this river, and now in this climate where the snow has not melted for a long time, it is naturally difficult for the land to grow enough food for people's stomachs, but we must persist in surviving, only by surviving, will there be a little hope. The fish in this water are not afraid of snow and ice, because the flowing water can provide warmth through flow, and if we want to live, we can only look at the source of food to the merry swimming fish in the water, and I can guarantee that if it were not for this dangerous situation, I would have been more happy to see them in a clear spring, and if there is still a little dry cake in my arms, I will not hesitate to feed them. ”

The cloth-clothed boy smiled indifferently, and then continued: "But now everyone is in danger, and only by hitting them with their ideas can we avoid this catastrophe, and I promise you that as long as we survive this winter, in the early spring of next year, someone will definitely prepare hundreds of fish fry to pour into this river to continue their swimming." Now that I've taken all the cause and effect on myself, I'll do it later, and whatever cycle will occur, I'll be the one who bears it. ”

The cloth-clothed boy stood with a smile, explained all the pros and cons, and waited for everyone to discuss and decide, he believed that only in this way and in the future, they could do things without scruples, so that they could play the role of storing food, so that they could spend a period of time in this way in the future.

It was not a way for the crowd to gather together, so in the end, a few people who had read poetry books were selected, and they discussed the final answer.

The cloth-clothed boy stood very casually, not waiting for Zhongrao's answer, but looked at a woman standing in the shade of a tree not far away.

Wen Shu's appearance, static movement is like a green lotus with buds waiting to be released in a pool of water, and it is impossible to be proudly independent.

Rather than looking at a group of happy men, the young man was obviously more interested in this beautiful woman, and if he could, he really wanted to come forward and ask her name.

It was only that a few big men in front of him didn't give him such a moment of effort, and a man with a strong body and a ribbon wrapped around his head stood up, his face was rough, and his voice was like a bell, full of momentum: "No matter what, we have to thank Shaoxia for this righteous act, if it weren't for Shaoxia's selfless dedication to this meal, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for our group of difficult brothers to survive." We are all rough people, our minds are not as flexible as Shaoxia, everything is decided by Shaoxia, but wherever I can be used, please ask Shaoxia to command, I will do my best to complete it. ”

"Yes! If there is no young man's meal, we are only afraid that we will rush to Huangquan because of hunger, although we have not learned the big truth, but for the life-saving benefactor, I have to repay everything with my life. A yellow-skinned man had just squeezed into the crowd and spoke.

"Young man, your kindness and kindness are all in your eyes, if you have any attention, just do it, we will definitely support you. If there are really any unexpected changes, please rest assured that the old body will be the first to carry it for you. An old man with a beard also stood up and spoke out for the emotion in his heart.

"Yes, young man! If you have any ideas, please let them out, shall you? Cuong's blood was rolling in his chest.

"Okay, since everyone has this intention, then there will be a lot of offense in the next life." The cloth-clothed young man clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly, and then made a formal arrangement: "First of all, separate the women and children, let them rest on the side, and the rest of the young and strong men will be divided into groups of five and come with me." ”

"There is a lamp grass by the river that grows very luxuriantly, we only need to weave the lamp grass into a fishing net, you can carry out fishing actions, a group of five people will weave the lamp grass criss-crossed, each fishing net is large according to the width of the river, the height is only one foot, I still have a few woven fishing nets here, for the time being, there are too many brothers and sisters who are trapped at the moment, only by weaving as much as possible can everyone have a share."

"Zheng, you come to teach them how to weave fishing nets, and two of the five people in the team will come with me to see where the nets are dropped." The young man in cloth called a young man in black cloth from a carriage behind him, gave the order, and rushed to the river with the rest of the people.

The fishing net woven with lamp grass here is not a flat fishing net, but after the weaving is completed, it is folded to make a fan-shaped collection net, and then a three-inch-wide circular hole is left in this fan-shaped net, and the hole is sewn up with a tight string, so that the fishing net is successfully made.
