Chapter 456: What I Saw in the East
Therefore, at most, he only dared to get out of Feng Ling'er's horse's head, and Wei Ba was on his right, he had already said that when he found Liu Sijian this time, he wanted to fulfill his duty as a servant and serve by his side. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Alas, those gambling fellows, although they will harm others and themselves, and disturb the peace of their respective families, they have done a great good thing at this time. ”
Wei Ba sighed while flying forward, he thought of these things from the horse he was riding at this time, so he said: "If they hadn't run away and we got their gambling money, how could I have a horse to ride at this time?"
"That's true. ”
Although Feng Ling'er was on the other side, she replied, she is a very sensitive girl, although Liu Sijian's horse is only a little more than her, in fact, it is a horse head, it is said that such a little distance, it is insignificant, however, her heart is still sour, like a plate of vinegared cabbage, quite uncomfortable.
But she can't help it, after all, Liu Sijian is doing this, it can also be said that she is saving time, and she will get to the Ghost Mother Mountain in the east of Kindong Town as soon as possible, and if she sees the green clothes as soon as possible, she can return as soon as possible, and at that time, she can do what she needs to do, and she doesn't have to be deeply affected by the green clothes anymore.
But in her heart, she felt a little aggrieved, yes, after hearing Wei Ba speak, she followed his words and spoke out, she did this just to dissipate the suffocation in her chest.
Liu Sijian didn't think much about this, of course, on the contrary, he was deeply comforted by her ability to self-regulate, not only that, but he also thought of another more important question, so he also sighed and said: "If it weren't for Lao Wei, you appeared in time, Ling'er and I were afraid that that time would really be a catastrophe!"
What he said was not a lie, he was inspired by it and sought truth from facts.
"Haha, the master is blessed with a great life, and every time there is a crisis, there will naturally be a savior. Even if the old slave does not appear, others will appear and save the master. Wei Ba smiled and replied.
Liu Sijian saw that he answered quickly, so he smiled heartily, but immediately after, he asked: "It's just that things are too coincidental, Lao Wei, you appeared a moment earlier, that's okay, in case you appear late, then, God knows what kind of result will be waiting for me and Ling'er?"
To be honest, for Wei Ba to appear in such a timely manner, he really felt that it was too much of a coincidence, just like arranged.
Everything is just arranged by the Ten Kings of Hell, they are the chief director, who should play, they just need to shout, that is.
Of course, it is impossible for them to know the final outcome, and that is for God to decide.
Wei Ba would not reveal the real reason why he suddenly appeared, so he said: "Actually, the old slave will appear in time, but it is not accidental, there is a reason behind it. On my way here, I heard people almost all say that this casino is here, although the business is very good, and there are many gamblers who come here. However, there are gamblers who have disappeared one after another!"
"Could it be that before we arrived, my younger brother had already started to use the casino as bait here, and he was killed?" Liu Sijian immediately frowned and asked.
"It should be. ”
Wei Ba nodded, however, immediately after, he said with considerable certainty: "However, Liu Sifa's time to do this kind of thing is not too long, because those who have disappeared in their families, their relatives, have disappeared inexplicably, that is, in the last few days." Nothing like this had ever happened before. ”
As he spoke, Liu Sijian added another whip to his horse, and he had already run dozens of miles away.
The ancient road of smoke and dust, the galloping horses, it is the early spring, the ice melts and the snow disappears, and the vitality gradually appears.
Along the way, although most of the roads were on roads where there were no people and no towns, there were times when they still had to pass through the towns, and in these sections, the three of them not only slowed down, but even had to stop temporarily a few times.
Because when people no longer have stability, they either start to flee the famine, or they are preparing to flee the famine, and on the way to escape the famine, when they rely on the strong and bully the weak, steal and rob, it is naturally high.
Seeing this scene, Liu Sijian was very unbearable, his face was full of sorrow, and he sighed: "What is this Jin Eighteen going to do?"
Of course, there is a reason why he blames Jin Eighteen, that is, after inquiry, they found that the reason why so many residents had to flee the famine was entirely caused by Jin Eighteen's excesses and miscellaneous taxes.
asked the residents for grain and rice, and also donated money, because Jin Shibai's counterinsurgency in Jinbei Town required a lot of grain and grass resources, and Jin Shibai built a lot of construction in Shaxin City, and all kinds of expenses were increasing unabated, so he had to increase the exploitation of the residents, otherwise it would be impossible to meet his needs.
And this action, although it satisfies Jin Shibai's selfishness, however, the result is that a large number of people can't survive at home, and have to flee to other countries, hoping to find a pure land, so that they can no longer be exploited and live a stable life.
Although Liu Sijian has the identity of a candidate for the mayor of Shaxin City, he is weak and weak, and at this moment, he has absolutely no ability to save the residents, but can only lament in pain, and this is obviously useless.
Further east, the situation is even worse, it turns out that since last autumn, there has been basically no rain in the east, the earth is cracked, the countryside is barren, the rivers are cut off, and the desert takes the opportunity to blow up wantonly, encroaching on large areas of land, which makes the already bad situation even worse.
But where did the inhabitants go?
"I've been in the town of Kinsouth for so long, it's easy to be there, I haven't seen any residents fleeing the famine, everything is the same as usual, what's going on?"
Liu Sijian sighed, while falling into deep thought, trying to figure out what was going on and why did it cause such a situation?
"That's because of the Sanssouci Forest. The inhabitants have lived here for generations, and they have a general understanding and grasp of the situation within a radius of 500 miles. The town of Kinnan has always had abundant rainfall, so it is full of life, which is why there is that worry-free forest. ”
When Wei Ba heard Liu Sijian's question, he also sighed and replied: "Those residents who live here don't dare to rashly walk through the Sanssouci Forest and go to Jinnan Town, because there are many poisonous insects and beasts in that forest, and once you enter the forest, it can be said that there is basically no chance to live!"
"I see!"
Feng Ling'er is a girl's family, she is soft-hearted by nature, it is really uncomfortable to see so many residents dragging their families with their families, leaving their hometowns, and fleeing from the famine, she really hopes to be able to help them, however, she is as powerless as Liu Sijian, she doesn't even know their general situation, so how can she help?
