In the spring of the 11th year of Mingde, Dayan began to move the people of several southern states north to fill the gap in the northern population caused by years of war.

Today's Dayan Imperial Court, although the contradictions are deep, domestic rumors are everywhere, and demons breed, but it still shows extremely high operational efficiency.

The government offices of several prefectures, mainly Luozhou, Luzhou, Jingzhou, and Xuzhou, received the imperial decree and quickly began to operate, organizing a large number of people who were living in embarrassment or had not enough to eat, and often two full meals on the road were enough for them to go to the north willingly, let alone settle in the north.

A thousand words, but one sentence -

Just begging for a way out.

At the same time, the government is also making full preparations in the relocation area.

When a large number of immigrants arrived in the relocation area mainly in Yuezhou, they would temporarily settle down under the supervision of local officials, with cantonments and camps as the basic units, or settle in abandoned cities and villages.

In order to help them resume production as soon as possible, the wealthy Dayan was not stingy at all, not only promising to distribute farm tools, seeds and cattle free of charge, reduce or exempt taxes, and allocate cultivated land according to Dingkou, but even in some relatively barren areas, the policy of "let it be reclaimed, and there is no fixed number of acres", that is, the government provides rations, money, seeds and farm tools, and exempts them from taxation within five years. Professionally responsible for the management of resettlement land.

When Song You arrived in Gwangju, he joined the team that had moved north.

Most of these people came from Roju and Najuju, which were closer to Gwangju, and under the leadership of the officials, they almost lined up in several long lines in the mountains and headed north.

Song You's Taoist robe was naturally easy to get close to, and after he said that he could exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts, he was very happy to accept him with the officials and servants, and often talked to him along the way.

At this time, the Taoist led the horse to a small hill, and looked in front and behind him by the height of the hillside.

The sunset shines on pedestrians, and the horses are singing in the wind.

There is neither a beginning nor an end in sight in the ranks of migrants. Many of them were dressed in tatters, even poorly clothed, and they staggered along with the large procession with a bamboo branch and stick, and some of them carried some tattered belongings, or carried baskets on their backs, and better pulled carts. There are also those who drag their families and lead their children, and they gather into this long dragon.

Everybody is just begging for food.

This long dragon walks unusually slowly, and is often urged by officials.

A similar long dragon Song You had seen once in other places, that is, outside the northern border, the Zhenbei army on the march. But it's just a cursory look, and a closer look reveals a world of difference.

The Taoist also stopped here and looked at it for a long time.

The number of people moving north this time is very huge, the largest in history.

In this way, it is also extremely spectacular.

Even in history, it is destined to be a strong stroke and far-reaching impact -

This northward migration will change the culture of the entire north, not to mention Yuezhou, which has been a dead place without a rooster for thousands of miles, that is, Yanzhou and other places where many people are still alive, and the local culture and population composition will also be greatly impacted by these immigrants.

At that time, if anyone examines the evidence, they will know that such changes come from this time.

At that time, the people in the north, especially the people of Yuezhou, are most likely the descendants of the immigrants that Song You sees now.

I don't know how future generations will describe this history, and how they will mention this process, in short, Song You only blew the wind on the hill for a while, and after watching it for a while, he led the horse down, and went forward with their ancestors to the future settlement.

The cat around her has long been submerged in the spring grass, and it is difficult to see her when the grass moves.

During this period of time, the Taoist people have also become familiar with many immigrants, and as soon as he went, someone turned his head and asked him while walking slowly with a cane.

"Sir, I heard you've been to Yuezhou?"

Song You didn't dare to slack off when he heard this, and hurriedly replied: "I went there once a few years ago. ”

"How's it going over there? Is there a way to live? ”

"Yuezhou is also a good land of feng shui, rich in spiritual energy, fertile land, but years of war, people have been emptied. When I walked in Yuezhou, it was autumn and winter, and I didn't bring much food, just some pheasants and hares on the roadside were enough to eat meat, and I could pick some wild fruits and vegetables. Song You replied truthfully, "There are also many ready-made houses, which can be moved in by simply clearing the weeds and burying the bones." ”

"It's like a good place."

An old man with a cane nodded.

Someone next to him frowned and said worriedly: "But I heard that if a good place is not occupied by others, it is easy to have demons, and I heard someone on the road say that the northern monsters are much more fierce than the south." ”

"We haven't seen any monsters along the way." A middle-aged man said with a baby on his back.

"That's because there are so many of us. Besides, I passed by Gwangju before, and I heard that there is a foggy mountain in Gwangju, and there are many people who learn swords on the foggy mountain, and those swordsmen are not all fairies than gods, but they all have the courage to kill monsters and fight evil ghosts, so there are no monsters to make trouble all the way. "But now we're in Yuezhou." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all worried and looked at the Taoist.

The Taoist walked forward slowly with a bamboo cane, and the red horse behind him followed, the bag on his back was larger than before, and the three-flower cat took small steps, often running around, and he just patiently told everyone that the big demon in Yuezhou had been removed, and the little monster was not to be afraid, and advised them to rest assured.

The sorrow between the brows of the people was undiminished.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion ahead.

The commotion came all the way from the front, like water waves pushing waves, and when it reached the back, everyone no longer knew why the predecessors were in a commotion, and they saw that the predecessors were panicking, and they were also panicking.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"What's going on?"

"There are youkai!"

"Huh? There are youkai! ”

All kinds of voices passed along the migrant procession, and the people behind them didn't see it at all, but they were even more panicked than the people in front, and I don't know how many people hid in the mountains and forests, or subconsciously protected their children.

Someone in front of them retreated, and they retreated again and again.

Only the Taoist looked ahead curiously, walked forward with a cane.

Slowly walking further and further, he asked:

"What's going on up ahead?"

"There's a youkai!!"

"What youkai? Did it hurt someone? ”

Some of the people knew him, some did not, but when they saw that he was a Taoist, they also came to him.

"A monkey, sitting on a tree, watching us pass underneath, we thought it was an ordinary mountain monkey, but it looked at it, and suddenly opened its mouth to speak."

"What about the monkeys?"

"There was an official who was so bold that he drank it away, and now he has run away into the woods, but he was still hiding from us in the woods just now."

"Did it say anything? Is it harmful to people? ”

"It's not harmful......"

"And what does it say?"

"It says ......"

The man's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked left and right, and for a moment he was a little frightened and hesitated.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said truthfully: "What the monster said is: This Dayan is going to die, the Chen family is about to rise, you came here, it happens to be on the way from the north to the south, and if there is a war at that time, won't you suffer again?" ”

This man even learned the tone of the monkey.

It sounds like sincere doubt, but it also sounds like kindness.

“……”

Song You was silent, and couldn't help but turn his head to look into the mountains and forests.

The forest was quiet, and I don't know where it was hiding.

When they retracted their gaze, they felt that everyone was very flustered, and even some officials and servants were also flustered, and the Taoist in Taoist robes and with a calm face undoubtedly became their backbone and endured many eyes.

"What should I do, Dao Chief?"

"That youkai can hurt people?"

"Is that youkai really fake?"

"Which Chen family is the Chen family......

"Can we stay safe in the north?"

“……”

Many voices came into Song You's ears, and everyone's panic and worry at this time were really seen by him.

The Taoist frowned silently, and couldn't help but think-

Although he has arrived in Yuezhou, where did he get the news about this monkey demon on the side of the road?

What is the purpose of it?

When he came to his senses, he comforted everyone.

"The goblin's words are not credible, and it's just a mountain monkey demon, everyone pays attention to it when they rest at night, collects dry firewood and lights the fire, and takes turns to watch the night, and it can't make any trouble. Now that you have already arrived in Yuezhou, don't worry too much, just think about how to settle down in Yuezhou. Song You paused as he spoke, "Isn't there anyone who can't survive in the original place and has come all the way to Yuezhou?" No matter how vicious the monster is, it can't starve to death. ”

When the people heard this, they also felt justified.

"Sir is right......"

"Horizontal and vertical but a dead ......"

"I can't live anyway!"

"This monster is even afraid of officials, and he doesn't have much ability to think about it, so if he dares to come tonight, everyone will kill it and eat monkey brains! has become a fine monkey brain, maybe you can become an immortal if you eat it! ”

“……”

"Everyone, please keep going, it's not dark yet, it's not suitable to stay overnight, and you can go one more way."

Song You said as he looked up at the sky.

The birds flew high, and the lonely clouds went alone.

Only a vigorous swallow rode away in the wind.

The large contingent of immigrants finally moved forward slowly, and although everyone was worried, they also slowly settled down and went farther and farther.

When it gets dark, rest on the spot.

Immigrants who are able to do so bring an old bedding on their backs to keep them warm at night. If there is no condition, it is to rub the food of the government empty-handed, and at this time I have to huddle together. The spring night is cool but not cold, everyone snuggles together to keep warm, but they can also survive the night, not to mention that there are just rumors of monsters today, and you can feel a little more at ease when you huddle together.

There are dozens of fires in the mountains, like a little starlight.

When the mountain wind blows, shooting stars everywhere.

"Plop Plop ......"

A swallow slid over during the night, landed on the Taoist's shoulder, and whispered.

The Taoist walked away from the lodging with a bamboo cane.

……

Ask for an advent pass! Ask for a double commuter pass!
