171.Chapter 171: The Crazy Outcast
I was also a little scared in my heart, because of the rebellion of the displaced people, even if I didn't experience it personally, but I had read so many books and heard so many stories, and I knew that the most troublesome problem for the national court was not so easy to solve.
Every year's disasters are accompanied by chaos, and such chaos is by no means something that can be solved by one or two human lives.
Thinking of this, my hand holding the hem of his shirt trembled slightly.
"Don't be afraid."
His voice sounded in a low voice, and then slowly stepped forward, at this time, Yang Yunhui had already led his people, along with the ironclad elite soldiers, all followed, and stopped in front of Pei Yuanhao, after all, the safety of this prince of the Heavenly Family was their most important thing.
At this moment, the tall city gate could not resist being hit by the victims, only to hear a loud "boom", the gate fell heavily to the ground, and several defenders who could not dodge even had time to scream, they were pressed down and blood sprayed, and a burst of dust suddenly stirred up half a day high, and the entire city gate was confused.
Suddenly, shouts rang out, and thousands of victims broke through the smoke and dust and poured into the city like a tide.
"Hurry, there's food in there!"
"Go find something to eat, quick!"
"There's something to eat!"
I sat in Pei Yuanhao's arms, staring blankly at the scene in front of me, those victims were ragged one by one, hungry and skinny like skeletons, they rushed in frantically, their cloudy eyes bloomed with almost crazy light, what they thought in their hearts, what they read in their mouths, there was only one word-
Eat!
Looking at the crazy appearance of those people, I don't know why my heart was sour, and tears rolled down my eyes.
Hunger, perhaps in the eyes of many people, is a desire that cannot be put on the table, but it is also the time when the simplest desires are not satisfied, which is the greatest sorrow of human beings.
As soon as the victims entered the city, they frantically looked for food, and even some people hugged the willow trees by the city gate and began to gnaw on the bark, and some small vendors not far from the city gate were frightened by this scene and walked early, leaving some food on the stalls, and those hungry eyes lit up when they saw it, grabbed it and stuffed it into their mouths, and some people even choked up and rolled their eyes, and swallowed desperately.
This crazy scene, everyone was shocked, seeing that those victims were still swarming forward, and even trampled to death, at this moment, not only those people around, but even Yang Yunhui's eyes also revealed a trace of horror.
And Pei Yuanhao, although he didn't say anything, I clearly felt that the hand holding my waist sank a little.
"Protect Your Highness! Stop them! ”
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hong Wenquan hurriedly shouted, and those ironclad elite soldiers and the surrounding city defenders also reacted, and hurriedly rushed forward, arm in arm at the gate of the city to form a human wall, and forcibly stopped those victims.
It was like the surging tide hitting the embankment, and those victims were not willing to be stopped and rushed forward desperately, and even some of them kicked and beat at those soldiers, and suddenly the crowd was in chaos, and some were beaten to the point that they could only be dragged back, but immediately new people rushed up to surround them, constantly impacting and blocking, like a siege battle, I was terrified.
At this time, the person behind me wrapped his arms around my waist and whispered in my ear, "Don't be afraid. ”
Before I could reply, he shook the reins, and the steed under his seat slowly walked forward.
