The Emperor of the Apocalypse sighed, but he had no choice but to say to Chen San: "Let's go, I won't drive you away, come here, give them some dry food, don't embarrass them." ”

After hearing this, Chen San thanked him for his kindness and left immediately, but he was a little scared, and he turned back three times in one step, trembling.

He was already thin, as if he would be blown away by a gust of wind at any moment, and he walked very funny, and his legs seemed to be floating on the clouds.

However, when the guards untied the dry food and delivered it to these people, Chen San and the others were immediately overjoyed.

The homeless people knelt there like a camp, and their mouths were full of words.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse ordered the people to move on.

Throw these homeless people away, walk for three or five miles, and all of a sudden...... The Emperor of the Apocalypse, who was sitting in the middle of the ride, felt that the scene in front of him was different.

He hurriedly ordered Chengyu to stop, hurriedly got off Chengyu, stared dumbfounded, and was silent for a long time.

Wei Zhongxian, Huang and Sun also caught up and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Sacred Tree...... My Sacred Tree......"

The so-called sacred tree, is the tree planted on both sides of the Shinto, if the emperor dies, the coffin needs to go from the capital to the imperial mausoleum, along the Shinto, on both sides of the Shinto, a large number of peach trees are planted, in the folk, the peach tree is a symbol of blessing and longevity.

Most of these peach trees do not bear fruit, and they follow the Shinto Road all the way to the Imperial Tomb.

Can ...... now The Emperor of the Apocalypse found that where those homeless people passed, the peach trees displayed on both sides of the funerals by their ancestors had been gnawed clean.

You can even see that the nearest peach tree has a tooth gnawing mark on it.

All of a sudden, the officials behind them exploded.

This is unbelievable, the ancestors and the ancestors know, isn't this a great disrespect?

The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked straight at the bare trunk with almost no bark, and suddenly stepped forward and said, "Take the dagger." ”

Leaning on the Emperor of the Apocalypse, one of the nearest lieutenants hurriedly took a dagger and handed it to the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse squatted down, cut a piece of bark at the root of the tree, and cut it down.

Subconsciously, he wanted to stuff the remaining bark into his mouth.

But when he was about to send it into his mouth, he stopped, and turned back by pinching the bark.

Wei Zhongxian was standing behind him, and when Wei Zhongxian saw the eyes of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, he subconsciously panicked and felt a chill in his spine.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "I want to taste the bark of this tree, and the people feed on it, and I don't know if they can eat it." Wei Banban, you come to eat. ”

Wei Zhongxian: "......"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse reached over with his hand holding the bark.

Wei Zhongxian hesitated for a moment, then took the bark without hesitation and stuffed it into his mouth in one gulp.

Everyone looked at Wei Zhongxian.

At first, Wei Zhongxian wanted to chew.

But with a bite, an indescribable bitterness in his mouth, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and almost spit out the bark.

So he had to bow his body, looking extremely uncomfortable, so he did not dare to chew any more, and immediately stretched his neck, trying to swallow the bark directly.

But this bark is not small, and when I swallow it like this, it seems that this thing is stuck in my throat, and I can't go up and down.

Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but burst into tears, swallowing constantly, and finally, the bark entered his stomach, but the bitterness remaining in his mouth had not dissipated, and he was so uncomfortable that he spat a few mouthfuls of foam.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at him expectantly: "How does it feel?" ”

"This ......" Wei Zhongxian's face turned red, and he said in a hoarse voice: "It's hard to swallow, it's delicious, and the slave really doesn't know what to say." ”

Wei Zhongxian's answer was honest.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse sighed: "How difficult the people's livelihood is, if all my officials taste this bark, they may know the suffering of the people." ”

Later, the officials who came to see the nine-thousand-year-old swallowing bark and saw it with relish immediately changed their faces, and they almost said in their hearts, why don't you eat it yourself?

The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at the bare divine trees one by one, and sighed: "Well, if this divine tree can give people a good stomach, it will not hinder if it is gnawed clean, the ancestors and ancestors are in the spirit of the sky, and they will definitely not blame, it is not early, let's go." ”

Sitting back in Chengyu, the Emperor of the Apocalypse called Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly agreed.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "Have the people of the world reached such a point? In such a big drought, I'm afraid it's already hell on earth. ”

"It's hard to say what a slave is." Wei Zhongxian rode on the horse, but he was holding his stomach, although the bark was swallowed, but he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, or the bark was uncomfortable in the stomach, he said with difficulty: "The household should be clearer than the slave." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "Did Li Qing's family come with him?" ”

"Yes, the slave and maid go and call him."

That Li Qiyuan was originally sitting in a sedan chair to recuperate, but he was called to the emperor's side, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse still asked.

Li Qiyuan stubbornly said: "There have been disasters in recent years, especially this year's ......."

Before he could continue, the Emperor of the Apocalypse interrupted: "Won't the household department come up with practical measures? ”

"The minister is also a clever woman without rice." Li Qiyuan looked innocent, and then said: "But didn't the Zhang family have so much grain at the beginning?" But they did not think of giving to the people, but they sold it at a high price, and they made an unknown amount of silver......

Emperor of the Apocalypse: "......"

This is obvious, now that the officials are coming back to their senses, you say that I am omnipotent, so isn't that Zhang Jingyi next to His Majesty the same? Big brother, don't laugh at second brother.

"Their family's grain, but it was sold for eleven or two taels of silver, which contributed to the price of grain, what is the difference between this and hoarding?"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but feel depressed in his heart.

Of course, he can't run to tell Zhang Jingyi, now that the country is in difficulty, you should set an example and use your family's grain to help the people.

But after all, Li Qiyuan pierced these, which made the Emperor of the Apocalypse feel very uncomfortable.

So he was silent.

Li Qiyuan saw that His Majesty was speechless, but he was also complacent, and he blamed me for being a household secretary every time, now it's okay, there is no excuse.

I, Li, am an official, I walk upright, sit upright, and have a breeze on my sleeves, at least better than that Zhang Jingyi.

The group continued to travel north, and almost reached the land of the Zhang family, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse ordered: "It's been very hard all the way, so let's find a place to rest." ”

In fact, everyone knows this.

The emperor didn't go to sacrifice at all, but just went to the Zhang family's field under the sign of sacrifice.

It's just that at this time, everyone is hungry and tired, and they really can't complain.

So I turned the road, entered the rugged path, walked a few more incense sticks, and finally opened up in front of me.

I saw a piece of reclaimed land appear in front of everyone's eyes, and in the distance is a temporary building, which is a Zhuangzi at a glance.

On the side of the road, a banner was hung.

"Warmly welcome Your Majesty to teach you."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse descended and almost suffocated.

When the officials behind saw it, they couldn't help but snicker.

In the distance, there were people beating gongs and drums, and the sound of gongs and drums was very festive.

A group of peasants-like people, apparently not northerners, lined up on the side of the road, and said in unison in a muffled local accent: "Welcome, welcome......"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse is suffocating.

Embarrassed, my scalp tingled.

In front, I saw Zhang Jing, father and son wearing dresses, leading a group of people to come in a hurry.

Zhang Tianlun took the lead and said: "The ministers have not been able to welcome them from afar, and please forgive them." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse saw Zhang Jingyi, although he was a little depressed after being influenced by Li Qiyuan, but at this time his heart warmed up a lot, and then laughed: "Okay, okay, stop this gong and drum sound." ”

Zhang Tianlun listened to it, and said busily: "Stop, stop, stop......"

The sound stopped abruptly.

Zhang Jing said: "The minister doesn't know the rules of taking over, and he discusses with his father, so he ......."

"It doesn't matter." The Emperor of the Apocalypse waved his hand and said, "I have seen your recital, so I came, what about your auspiciousness?" ”

Zhang Jingyi was surprised: "What auspicious? ”

As soon as these words came out, the hundred officials standing behind the Emperor of the Apocalypse snickered again.

In their eyes, Zhang Jingyi is a reckless man, who has not read any books, and is almost illiterate.

When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard the teasing behind him, he felt a little unable to get off the stage for a while.

You said that there is auspiciousness, so I came here with great fanfare, which is very face-saving for you!

But now, you're pretending to be stupid?

The Emperor of the Apocalypse felt very aggrieved, and finally said, "Food...... Yield per mu is ...... kilograms"

"Oh." Zhang Jing suddenly realized, and then said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, this is not auspicious, this is food, where does auspiciousness come from?" Your Majesty knows that if you want to offer auspiciousness, how can you be so humble and only say that you can yield a thousand catties per mu? ”

What do you say...... It actually makes sense.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "I don't care if it's auspicious or ominous, I want to see the grain." ”

"It's been ready for a long time." Zhang Jingyi said seriously: "This grain ...... It's ......"

In fact, the hundred officials behind him were already impatient, and seeing that Zhang Jingyi was still rambling, Li Qiyuan, the secretary of the household department, couldn't help but say: "Zhang Baihu, did the big water in the capital confuse you a few days ago!" Just say a few words, don't use this auspiciousness to fool the king, have you heard of the crime of bullying the king? ”

Zhang Jing never expected that she would be scolded at this time.

He couldn't help but glance at Li Qiyuan, and said in his heart: "Do I have a grudge against him?" ”

But in Li Qiyuan's heart, it was not like this, and he ...... Zhang Jing had seven dollars of silver, but what he received was the grain of his Li family.

This is blocking people's money, such as killing parents.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was only anxious about one thing now, and said, "Where is the grain field?" ”

Zhang Jing didn't have time to record Li Qiyuan in his small account book, so he said: "Just ahead, Bei Xia is preparing to let people harvest new grain, so I am looking forward to Your Majesty coming." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded: "I am here for this." ”

Immediately, he reacted suddenly, and hurriedly said: "No, I came here to come and see, mainly to worship the ancestors and ancestors." ”
