"Childe doesn't know, we have good legs here, and we have long left, leaving only us old and young, and now we can only live by begging. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"This year, we have a big drought here, the harvest in the field has been reduced by half, but the tenant is collecting rent according to the output of the previous year, and we have no grain left after paying the tenant rent, but even if it is like this, the imperial grain of Lord Zhao of the county order is not missing at all, but we heard that the imperial court has given us a favor here, saying that it has exempted us from the imperial grain here."

"The official is to deceive the superiors and subordinates, try every means to get money, we can't pay the imperial grain, Lord Zhao will lock us in the prison and be boarded, forced to helpless The villagers can only sell their sons and daughters, and make up money to pay the public grain, but we are okay here, according to what I heard in other counties, wild dogs eat dead people, and living people eat wild dogs, and even cannibalism has begun."

“……”

The gossip of the villagers made Zhang Yi's heart feel like colic, and it was difficult for him to imagine the picture of Yi Zi cannibalism, or he didn't dare to imagine the picture of Yi Zi cannibalism.

When he left Shiluo Village, Zhang Yi couldn't see any joy or sorrow on his face, only a thick melancholy, because according to Sima Wei, Hedong County was already a place with fertile land, and if even this place began to be cannibalized, Zhang Yi would not dare to imagine other places.

Lying on the haystack, Zhang Yi couldn't sleep at all, because as soon as he closed his eyes, his brain would make up the picture of Yi Zi's cannibalism, in order to survive, the four adults shed tears, endured their grief, and exchanged their own flesh and blood for each other's biological flesh and blood, and their children were crying out "Daddy, Mother", and they could only turn away sadly, and then kill the other party's young children in various miserable ways, in order to live for themselves, human nature seems cold and ugly at this time.

In this era of famine, people can really do anything in order to survive, and this kind of thing can be done if they are forced to do it, this is not to say that only the poor can do it, think that after Zhou Wen Wang Jichang was detained by Shang, in order to survive, didn't he also eat meat cakes made of his son's meat? And while eating, he said that it was delicious, so he hid it from the king of Xu, so he survived and fled back to Xiqi.

For a whole morning, Zhang Yi had nightmares, he dreamed of that kind of tragic picture, and after waking up, Zhang Yi was full of hatred for this Han Dynasty.

Zhang Yi, who couldn't sleep, decided to continue his journey, he wanted to take a walk to see what the people in Hedong County were like now, and whether they really couldn't survive anymore.

Rushed all night's road, along the way Zhang Yi saw all the barren fields and sleeps on the side of the road, at night Zhang Yi and a group of people who fled the famine met in the broken land temple, by asking the fellow Zhang Yi to learn that this year Hedong County encountered a rare drought in a century, the entire Hedong County has not seen a drop of rain for 7 consecutive months, and many places have also caused locust plagues, so that many counties have no harvest, but at this time the scholars, landlords and bureaucrats are desperately guarding their granaries, they not only do not help the people, On the contrary, he intensified his exploitation of the people, which made Zhang Yi feel extremely indignant.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yi and the others arrived at Mazhuang in Dongyuan Township.

In the distance, Zhang Yi vaguely heard a child crying again, and it seemed that there was more than one child in the voice.

After holding the reins of the horse, Zhang Yi listened quietly for a while, then turned his head and asked Huang Zhong: "Hansheng, did you hear it?" Is it the cry of a child? ”

After listening carefully with his eyes closed for a while, Huang Zhong turned his head and nodded to Zhang Yi and said, "There are indeed children's crying, and there should be more than one."

"Let's go, let's go over and have a look, and the others rest in place." As he spoke, Zhang Yi reined in his horse's head and entered the village next to him.

Following the sound, from a distance, Zhang Yi saw that there were more than a dozen officials in official clothes, who were actually snatching children.

"Don't, don't rob my child, military master begs you, don't rob my child! Isn't it enough that you've taken my husband to work?! A woman knelt on the ground, clinging to the leg of an official, and her mouth kept pleading.

After seeing this scene, Zhang Yi beckoned Huang Zhong to dismount, but told him not to act rashly.

"You stinky girl, hurry up and let go of Lao Tzu, your husband is going to repair the city, that is the emperor's order, and it has nothing to do with your family's imperial food, then again, if we hadn't let him go to repair the city, your family would have starved to death," the official who was holding his leg pointed to the woman on the ground and shouted: "You fuck, if you don't let go, I'll kill you!"

"Get out of here!" After another official suddenly flew up and kicked the woman directly to the ground, the official also turned his head to the official who was hugged by the thigh before and said: "See, you will deal with the enemy like this in the future, these untouchables, if you don't clean up for a day, you will be idle and panicked!" Tell you, this is the order of Lord Taishou, if you can't pay your imperial food anymore, sell your children to make up the amount, let's go! ”

After saying that, those officials held seven or eight children and swaggered towards the gate of the village! The onlookers were angry, but they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak!

"These bastards!"

When the official messenger passed by Zhang Yi and Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong, who was furious, took a step forward, and he wanted to beat those scumbags.

"Hold back!" grabbed Huang Zhong, Zhang Yi whispered to Huang Zhong: "I want to beat them more than you, but I can't now!"

Zhang Yi used all the strength of his body to barely stop Huang Zhong's next move, but he could feel that Huang Zhong's whole body was trembling, and Huang Zhong's face was flushed with anger also made Zhang Yi understand that Huang Zhong was really angry!

No matter how angry he was, Zhang Yi's order Huang Zhong still had to listen, so he didn't impulsively go up and beat up that group of scumbags!

Watching from afar, listening to the heart-rending cries of those children, and looking at the faces of those children distorted by crying, Zhang Yi felt that his heart was about to break.

After the group of scum left, Zhang Yi took Huang Zhong to the woman who was still lying on the ground crying.

"Sister-in-law, this sister-in-law," patting the woman on the ground gently, Zhang Yi said softly: "Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you?"

The woman who was crying, after slowly raising her head, saw Zhang Yi's immature face.

"Thank you, big brother, you can't help me with anything." After waving her hand at Zhang Yi, the sister-in-law slowly got up from the ground, and then staggered to her home.

Looking at the downcast back of his sister-in-law, Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and clenched his fists!

"Damn Chen Yu!" Zhang Yi forcibly suppressed the fire and cursed in a low voice.
