Chapter 9: Natural and Man-made Disasters?
"Brother Zheng Qiu, save my grandmother!"
At this time, a little girl hiding in the crowd and dressed in tatters ran out crying.
Her name is Cai Xin.
It was Zheng Qiu who took it for her.
"Be careful!"
Just as Cai Xin ran over, one of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion suddenly drew a stick and was about to hit her thin body.
Zheng Qiu reacted and roared in surprise.
Then he shifted his body and rushed to the front of the guard, grabbing the club.
"You're damned!"
Zheng Qiu gritted his teeth and kicked him out, and the latter's breath suddenly withered.
"You dare to beat the people of my City Lord's Mansion?"
The captain of the guard raised his tone a few points, and said angrily: "You're done, you're done with a big deal today!" ”
"Xiaoxin, you stand back first, I'll drive these bad guys away!"
After Zheng Qiu gave an order, he strode forward, twisted his wrist, and shouted: "Cai Xin is my sister, and you are the ones who want to say that the big thing is on the stall!" ”
"Damn, you dare to take care of the affairs of the City Lord's Mansion, come here, kill him for me, and bring him back together!"
The captain of the guard raised his arms and shouted.
"A bunch of brutes who have lost their humanity, looking for death!"
Zheng Qiu's face was gloomy.
He never thought that the people of the City Lord's Mansion would do such a dehumanizing thing.
Man eats man!
How did they get their hands on it?
At this moment, the situation in the field made him have no time to think about it.
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion all rushed up and surrounded him in the middle with a roar.
These people are of average strength.
Zheng Qiu didn't pay attention to it.
Ten Thousand Dao Reincarnation Circles Resolutely Operated Quietly, and the black and white aura jumped above the left fist.
Amid the roar of the guards, Zheng Qiu threw a heavy punch.
There was even the sound of dragons roaring in the air.
"Ahh
These guards didn't expect that their combined strength was far inferior to the emaciated young man in front of them!
One punch!
Defeat the enemy in front of you in an instant!
As for the captain of the guard who didn't make a move, he was completely stupid.
The crotch of his pants was cold and wet with a smell.
He was scared to pee!
Zheng Qiu naturally noticed the scene in front of him and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so bold!" Where is all the arrogance just now? ”
"You!"
The captain of the guard blushed.
All around was an overwhelming burst of laughter.
He raised the knife at his waist, took a few steps back with trembling steps, and hurriedly said, "Stay away from me!" ”
"Tell you, if you beat me, the City Lord's Mansion will definitely arrest you in the city at all costs! At that time, the entire Green Pine City will have no place for you! ”
"Arrest me? What did I do wrong? ”
Zheng Qiu stepped forward and stood still.
I just felt that the words spoken by the person in front of me were simply too ridiculous.
Most of these wanderers have helped him, is it wrong for him to protect these people from becoming food?
No, he's right!
It's these brutes who are wrong!
"It's a big mistake for you to interfere with the actions of the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord will definitely not let you go!"
The captain of the guard blushed, and after yelling, he turned and fled.
But how could Zheng Qiu let him go so easily?
With a scream that shook the sky and the earth sounded, these lackeys of the City Lord's Mansion were all beaten by him and their noses were blue and their faces were swollen.
Without a month or two of recuperation, you will never get out of bed!
"If you dare to hit me, you're finished!"
The captain of the guard curled up, his face pale.
However, Zheng Qiu ignored him, and instead took these wanderers and moved to a deserted mansion.
Although this house has not been repaired for a long time, it is better than leaving people outside to be frozen.
He took dozens of prey out of the storage ring and stacked them in the courtyard.
Looking at the hill-like prey in front of them, the faces of these wanderers all showed a look of surprise and joy.
"Brother Zheng Qiu, are these the prey you brought here?"
Cai Xin raised her dirty little face and asked in surprise.
"Yes, so that Xiaoxin won't go hungry!"
After Zheng Qiu healed Grandma Caixin's injuries, he walked over with a smile and touched her head.
Since I was a child, I have been mixed with this Nizi in front of me.
Whenever she was starved by her aunt for a few meals, she quietly appeared and brought steamed buns and flatbread to satisfy her hunger.
It can be said that Cai Xin saved her life.
Now that they have grown up, this Nizi is getting better and better as she grows.
If you don't usually wear dirty, it is estimated that you will dress up casually, and you will be the top beauty!
It may even be more beautiful than the famous first Oiran of the Dayan Dynasty, Liu Tianxian!
"Great, no one will be hungry in the future!"
Cai Xin's innocent face has more expectations for her future life.
"Hey, this heavy snow is a few months, even if it's winter, but the world is still barren, and I don't know how long we can live!"
At this time, an old man sighed.
If the famine continues like this, sooner or later all beasts will die and everything will wither.
At that point, it's a real desperate situation!
"Maybe after this winter, it will be better!"
Zheng Qiu looked up.
Looking at the heavy snow flying in the sky, he sighed.
"I don't know if this famine is a natural disaster or man-made, if it is the former, there will be a day when we see hope, but if it is the latter, ......"
The old man uttered a bold conjecture.
This immediately attracted Zheng Qiu's attention.
Act of God?
Man-made disaster?
Could it be that this famine, which lasted for several years, was actually deliberately done by someone?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that this might really exist!
After all, the great powers of this world, or the masters of the supreme forces, have the power to overturn mountains and seas, and even control the environment of one side.
If it is entirely attributable to natural disasters, it is not absolute!
At least, the seeds of doubt have been planted in Zheng Qiu's heart.
"If only we could all cultivate! At least it won't be used as rations by the people of the City Lord's Mansion, hey! ”
Listening to the old man's sigh, some people present sighed with emotion.
Cultivating immortals, for all the people in this world, is definitely the greatest wish in life.
But unfortunately, most of them have been mortal beings all their lives, and they have no chance to cultivate at all.
Cai Xin blinked her big eyes and muttered with some heart: "If I can cultivate, I will be able to protect everyone!" ”
After staying here for a while, Zheng Qiu was ready to leave.
Before leaving, Cai Xin greeted her with some reluctance: "Brother Zheng Qiu, don't worry, you are good to Xin'er, and Xin'er will do her best to repay it one day!" ”
Her attitude is sincere and determined.
But Zheng Qiu never needed her to promise anything.
Instead, he smiled and touched her head: "Xiaoxin, when I stabilize myself, I'll take you to Zheng's house!" ”
"But the lady of the Zheng family ......"
Cai Xin didn't know what had happened in the Zheng family.
In her heart, Jiang Hongyue is a very scary and vicious woman, she is almost instinctively afraid.
"Don't worry, no one will hurt you anymore!"
After Zheng Qiu finished speaking, he left here with the big yellow dog.
As for Cai Xin, he was still standing in place, carefully reflecting on what he had just said.
