Chapter Eighty-Four: Food for Heaven
Human emotions can often determine many things themselves.
For some believers who were already in the eastern part of Yunqin, the journey to the east was not far away, but most of the believers who joined the eastbound team from the beginning had to eat and sleep in the open and hike for several months.
Such a migration across the empire was, of course, painful most of the time, but at the instigation of many clerics, and without any hindrance along the way, the frenzy and pleasure permeated the procession, making it seem like it was rushing to a grand concert or to watch a World Cup final.
At the same time, humans are very strange group animals, and when the group reaches a certain size, the thinking and emotions of individual individuals are often affected by the group.
So on the way to this team's migration, some people who originally didn't have any feelings for the Demon King and the salvation at all, because of novelty and inexplicable infection, also joined the team.
The team is getting bigger and bigger.
Zhang Ping looked through the flags and curtains and looked ahead expressionlessly.
There are things that are suppressed in my heart and I don't want to admit it, but after I find that I can't get rid of it at all, it will burn like wildfire. When he vaguely knew that Qin Xiyue and Lin Xi entered the Ice and Snow Divine Plain together, thinking that Qin Xiyue might die, he would never see it again, and he would die with Lin Xi, he knew that he would never be able to get rid of Qin Xiyue's shadow in his heart, just like he couldn't get rid of the female hidden girl named Chang Jingxiang.
Even when he was meditating and practicing, he would suddenly see the picture of Chang Jingxiang's arched ** body in his mind, allowing him to see it clearly, and he would suddenly interrupt because of Qin Xiyue's face in his mind.
So even though he knew that Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue holding hands and entering Purgatory Mountain was just a fake thing to show him, he still couldn't contain the biggest anger in his life.
Because he knew very well that Qin Xiyue's affection for Lin Xi was true, he even imagined that if he didn't do something, even if Qin Xiyue couldn't walk with Lin Xi in the end, even if he just lived quietly in Lin Xi's neighboring alley, and spent his life peacefully without anything happening... This kind of picture made him unbearable at all, and made him endlessly angry!
Although the magic transformation has completely transformed a person's body, just like Lin Xi said, it has completely transformed a person's genes, but this change is not perfect after all, in extreme anger, he can feel that the inside of his liver seems to be melting, and there are some tentacle-like black buds growing.
This made him feel extreme pain, and his soul power could no longer circulate wantonly.
But he remained adamant that he could win the decisive battle.
This huge team has entered the Donglin Province, the Dragon Snake Mountain Range, and it is already close in front of his eyes.
Zhang Ping couldn't wait to see Lin Xi and Qingluan Academy fighting with these Yunqin people, he even wanted to defeat Lin Xi and those Qingluan Academy people, abolish their power, and then let them watch themselves be killed by the Yunqin people they once protected but turned into thugs.
"Is it worth it?"
"Is it worth it for us to die for such a person?"
Zhang Ping really wanted to ask Lin Xi something like this before Lin Xi died.
However, what he didn't know now was that this huge team, which continued to march eastward, had begun to have some minor problems.
......
Spontaneous believers dressed in black or red clothes spread like locusts in the wilderness of Donglin Province.
At noon time, the "locusts" at the forefront entered a market town, and then quickly flooded and covered the market town.
Several believers entered an ordinary courtyard and asked for something to eat, but they were refused.
This was something that had never happened before, because the Yunqin people themselves were hospitable, and the eldest princess of the imperial city of Zhongzhou also issued a royal decree, ordering the granaries and people along the way to provide food for this team, and in the eldest princess's will, the biggest reason for providing food for these believers was to avoid chaos and open up the great wilderness.
The believers who were rejected were a little stunned, so they asked for many reasons, even if it was just to provide this meal.
The owner of this small courtyard was a sturdy and honest farmer, and he was more and more embarrassed in the face of these people's requests, but in the end he said apologetically: "It's not that I can't help it... It's just that my family's food stock is only enough for a few meals. The rice shop also said that it would be closed for several days, and we would have no food to eat. ”
The vast majority of believers who entered this market town had the same experience.
They simply discovered the source of the incident, the Dade Xiang rice shop in the market town has been closed for several days, and according to the rumors circulating in the town, it seems that it will be closed for several days.
It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and no one else has anything to eat, so she naturally has no way to get food from others.
So these hungry believers had no choice but to move on to the next town.
However, they soon found that the next town, the Lingcheng, was also the same.
......
"Why didn't Da Dexiang open it?"
"Does Da Dexiang want to starve people to death?"
In a certain town, a group of believers who had been hungry for several meals gathered in front of the Dade Xiang rice shop with the gate closed, and the strong hunger made them can't help but scream and bang on the door of the Dade Xiang rice shop.
These people were carried away by hunger, but for the rest of the Yunqin people, Da Dexiang was enough to be respected and defended with their lives.
"Why does Dadexiang have to drive? Maybe there is a problem with the delivery team, maybe there is a problem with the reserves. The shouts and slapping of these believers immediately ushered in the angry scolding and scolding of many townspeople, "No matter what, it is also a matter of great virtue and auspiciousness whether it can be opened or not." ”
"Is Da Dexiang opened by your house, you can open it if you want to, and close it if you want to?"
"I originally wanted to give you a cake, but now that you are like this, how do you come and go!"
"Do you think that white rice and white flour are water in the ditch, you can flow as much as you want, and there will be screaming?"
In such an angry scolding, some believers became angry and shouted: "If you don't open it, you won't open it, I don't believe it, is there only one rice shop in the world, except for Dadexiang, there is no other rice shop, can't you buy rice noodles!"
Amid the believer's fierce shouting, a long-bearded man in his sixties in a short silk shirt shook his head and sighed softly, "Young man... Now here, except for Da Dexiang, I really can't buy rice noodles. ”
His voice was not loud, but it was full of deep emotion. This kind of emotion contained in the words even made those believers feel it, and they all fell into an inexplicable daze.
This old man has reason to have such deep emotions, because he himself is the shopkeeper of another largest rice shop in the town, after the death of the eldest grandson Jinse, the whole Yunqin fell into chaos, and returned to the situation of the princes before the establishment of Yunqin, until this summer, the eldest princess officially took power, reorganized the Yunqin court, and the situation gradually calmed down. In the past six months, in the midst of such turmoil, the vast majority of commercial banks have been unable to do business, especially rice shops, which have been unable to make a living. Because food is extremely important to any force, even if it can be raised, it is very likely to encounter all kinds of accidents during transportation. However, in the past six months, Dadexiang has been operating as before, and shops everywhere have opened almost normally.
Maybe it's because Da Dexiang has won the respect of all the Yun and Qin people, or maybe it's because Da Dexiang himself has ensured enough food supply for the entire empire, and no force dares or needs to do anything to Da Dexiang, or maybe Da Dexiang itself has a very strong force....but for whatever reason, the final result is that Da Dexiang has monopolized the rice and noodle business in most provinces.
All the other rice shops with their own grain production areas have also signed conditions with Dadexiang to entrust Dadexiang to transport and sell.
Therefore, the old man can be sure that as long as Dadexiang has no rice, not to mention the entire empire, at least these neighboring provinces will have no food to eat.
......
Even if the locals have bottomed out in the rice tank, there are always some ways to support it, and Dadexiang has also made a guarantee before closing the shop that it will not be closed for a long time.
However, for those on the move, the confidence of those who travel hungry will soon be shattered.
And soon more serious news spread through the ranks... Even some of the granaries in front and the grain reserves of the army are already insufficient.
"It's all because you believe in the Demon King that you will be like this, this is God's punishment for you!"
"It's not because of your opposition that the Demon King's reward can't be reached smoothly!"
When the atmosphere of carefree and frenetic pleasure was shattered by hunger, the peace between the different believers turned into violent quarrels.
Several farmers carrying hoes to dig irrigation canals in the fields passed through such a small circle of quarrels.
Looking at the dozens of believers who were arguing with red faces, the farmers walked by with a disdainful sneer: "What do you believe in or not, what demon king is not a demon king, can you eat? I don't even have to eat, and I have to argue about what bullshit belief." Do you believe that you can have food?"
The peasants did not stop, their voices were cold, but the believers who were arguing stopped arguing and fell into a long silence.
"I don't even have to eat... What else are we doing here?"
A believer who had previously been the son of an official eunuch who had previously seemed to the rough peasants to be extremely stupid, but now he suddenly felt as if he were an idiot.
He was suddenly deflated.
More and more believers left the ranks, and many of them sneaked away in the night at first, but then they broke up in large numbers.
Some manage to catch fish and sell it for money, some manage to help, some manage to do some hard work... These people scattered in the territory of Donglin Province, obtained food in various ways, and returned.
These people come from the people, and they are scattered among the people.
......
Zhang Ping looked ahead through the banner and the drapery.
He could already see the shadow of the Dragon Snake Mountain Range clearly, but he could see the rapid collapse of the team more clearly, watching countless people leave like ants.
He could kill these people, but he couldn't drive these people to serve him and fight Lin Xi and Qingluan Academy.
His "army", the scene he most wanted to see, was defeated by Da Dexiang, and it was defeated at this last moment.
......
Everyone knows that it is only possible to be Da Dexiang.
This is not a simple food shortage.
In order for this team to have food to eat during the previous march and no abnormalities were found, but by the time they arrived in Donglin Province, several surrounding provinces began to run out of food, and they all began to have no food to eat, and it was too late to even find out, which must have been extremely carefully calculated and arranged.
Only the combination of a monopoly firm like Dadexiang and some big forces can do such a thing.
.......
A column of red-robed Purgatory Mountain priests and a cavalry army galloped across the Biluo Tomb.
A middle-aged priest led by him had his temples flying snow, and his eyebrows were full of killing intent that could not be concealed.
For a behemoth like Da Dexiang, Zhang Ping naturally supervised, and on weekdays, there were many Purgatory Mountain priests and a guardian army stationed near Da Dexiang's farm, nominally preaching, but in fact only taking over Da Dexiang, so when the eastward team began to encounter a food shortage in Donglin Province, the Purgatory Mountain priests here had also discovered that Da Dexiang had done something in some links.
Da Dexiang had always been very well-behaved and stable before, and now this middle-aged priest just wanted to ask how Chen Feirong dared to do such a thing at this time.
(First announce a new book preparation group, the group number is 323309659, 323309659, and several new book preparation groups may be announced in the next few days.) The role is to solicit ideas for some new books, to do some research, and to use it purely for chatting and blowing water. Then continue to work hard to write, as much as possible to write the ending as well as possible. In the end, I continued to ask for a monthly pass. Let's vote for more monthly tickets, and draw a perfect end to the results of the fairy and demon transformation. )
