Chapter 8: Barricades

Before the latter could ask more, Shi Xia came over with a bowl of black potion, and she had no choice but to bury her doubts in the bottom of her heart, planning to ask again tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the inn was crowded with people, and at a glance, the shopkeeper was still hiding by the counter and shivering, carefully accompanying the smiling face.

Qi Changrong walked out of the guest room, Luo Yi hurriedly greeted him, and said respectfully: "Master, there are a total of fifteen carts of grain outside, I don't know what to do with it?" ”

"Come with us on the road."

"Yes." The inn was unusually quiet, not even the sound of the collision of dishes and chopsticks was made, and the atmosphere of the shopkeeper did not dare to gasp, the atmosphere was too depressing.

From time to time, someone passed by the door, and when they saw the battle inside, they didn't even dare to ask more. Qi Changrong continued to hurry, but this time, the team in a hurry had grown a lot.

Shi Chun served a cup of hot tea and smiled flatteringly: "Master, can you tell the slave why she bought so much grain now?" Qi Changrong didn't answer and asked: "Shi Chun, what do you think of Dajin now?" "It's a big sin to comment on a country at will, Shi Chun thought about it, and finally silenced.

"Say, I forgive you." Shi Xia muttered: "The Great Jin Dynasty has not expanded in recent years, but it can be regarded as a smooth wind and rain, and the people have rich silver, which should still be good." Qi Changrong shook his head, pursed his lips and was silent.

"Wrong, the whole world is the imperial land, but there are still places beyond the reach of the whip. When you see the prosperity of Shangjing, you think that everything should be the same, and even if you are defeated, it should not be too bad. In fact, there are too many people who are bleeding for a bite to eat, they are not rich, they are all just to live. "In the last life, it was also this year, there was a rare rebellion of displaced people in the southeast, and in order to feed themselves, they even used local officials as bargaining chips in exchange for food and traded with enemy countries.

Her father was furious, and she was ordered to go to pacify the southeast and put all traitors to death. But how many people were involved in that unwarranted disaster?

In the end, there were blood-red heads all over the ground. And this time, since she knew in advance, she should do what she could.

It happened that she was going to pass through the southeast again, so she went to see if those people were still saved. Along the way, the wind and dust were served, and the towns they passed through went from bustling to dull and then poor.

Shi Chun and Shi Xia finally saw what it means to break the head and bleed just to fight for a bite to eat. The speed of the carriage slowed down.

Some were lying half-dead on the side of the road, so hungry that they didn't even have the strength to moan. A huge convoy passed in front of them, and the light in the eyes of those men changed from bright to dim.

But the guards of the convoy were not easy to mess with, and no one dared to step forward to snatch them, even if they longed for it in their hearts.

At last, there was a woman who could not bear it anymore, and her infant child, who was so angry and thirsty, that she could not live.

With a poof, she stopped the entire convoy.

"Ask the good Samaritan to save my child and give her a bite to eat, she is dying of hunger." Xu was that the woman cried so hard that people couldn't help but feel compassion.

Luo Yi turned over and dismounted, walked to the side of the carriage and asked in a low voice, "Master-" The people on the side of the road held their breath and looked at the simple carriage longingly, and everyone was waiting for the reaction of the people in the carriage.

As the minutes and seconds passed, the hoarse voice belonging to the young man sounded from inside: "Shi Xia go and take a look." ”

"The servant obeys!"
