Chapter 83: The Plague

That being said, it is far from as simple as it seems to be to truly cut off the connection between the diseased displaced people and the city of Suzhou.

As the disease spreads among displaced people, panic spreads uncontrollably and rapidly.

The initial barrier erected by the officers and soldiers could not stop the displaced people, who were growing in fear and causing riots, and they had to hire the displaced people to build the wall again.

"Hey, Wang San," the homeless man who was moving bricks on the side smashed Wang San's arm, "why did you say that the adults let us build a wall and not let those people outside come in?" ”

Wang San shook his head, his face was now a lot more bloody than before, and his daughter had survived smoothly because of the relief food.

He whispered, "I don't know that either...... However, I think that the noble person must have her considerations, maybe these people seem to be too fierce. ”

It's just too fierce.

Wang San didn't dare to look over there when he built the wall, just like that, out of the corner of his eye, he faintly saw several people frantically gnawing meat.

In this world, how can there be meat?

He thought in horror, they were all homeless, and his daughter had suffered that kind of thing, how could he not understand that this was human flesh?

As the displaced people were building the wall, a sudden stop was heard: "What are you doing?" Wouldn't building such a wall cut off the livelihood of those who later became displaced outside? ”

Everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the voice, and found that the person who spoke was a man with a bright eye, he was standing next to Lin Chonghan, and he was probably an official when he looked at his power.

Lin Chonghan could only explain to him softly: "My lord, even if we build a wall, we will have officers and soldiers take the initiative to put food...... There is really no way, those people outside have already started the epidemic. ”

"The county lord's meaning is clear," I don't want the person to look at her with disdain, but he stubbornly pushed back, "It's just that these people are also my people, and they must not be ignored." ”

Lin Chonghan didn't expect that the disaster relief official who came this time would be such a pedantic scholar, and it was really reasonable to encounter this situation now.

"Lord Xia," Lin Chonghan could only continue to explain patiently, "once these displaced people are released, not to mention the destruction of the environment of the existing displaced people, it will also cause large-scale epidemics. ”

"Not to mention the spread of epidemic patients, it is very easy to cause the death of people, so it must not be let in."

Unexpectedly, the other party glanced at her with disdain, and snorted lukewarmly from his nostrils: "It is normal for the county lord to be a woman and a Taoist family, and not to understand political affairs." ”

"Someone! Remove all the walls for the rulers, and let the people in. ”

Lin Chonghan was furious by his words, and she said coldly and angrily: "I see who dares!" ”

Once she let go, those officers and soldiers naturally won't move, these days they have all seen the construction process outside the city, knowing that although this noble man is a woman, he acts no different from a man.

Now that the two are arguing, it is simply clear who they want to listen to, and there is no need to think about it.

Seeing that no one was moving, Lord Xia was so angry that his whole face turned red, and he just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Lin Chonghan.

"Lord Xia is really a big breath," she sneered, "What kind of grass huts, free clinics, and food eaten by the displaced people outside the city are not sponsored by this county?" ”

Lord Xia saw the silent approval of the people around him, and thought of the completely different attitudes of the officers and soldiers towards the two before, how could he not understand anything.

It turned out that this thing outside the city was really done by this delicate girl, and Lord Xia's face was red and white.

"If it's really a woman's stupidity and bad thing," he flicked his sleeves indignantly, trying to save his lost face, "a woman should stay in the back house, and there is no reason to come out and show her face." ”

Lin Chonghan laughed angrily, she didn't bother to argue with this person anymore, but said directly: "Since your lord has a good heart, it is better for you to personally go and help the refugees." ”

"After all, these refugees outside the wall," she deliberately lengthened her voice, "are all the people of our Daliang." ”

Lin Chonghan put a high hat on him: "It is rare to see a good official like our Lord Xia who is worried about the country and the people now, and the county lord is a woman's family, so it is better not to get involved in these things." ”

After speaking, she stretched out her jade arm and pointed in the direction where the refugee was, and said with a smile: "Lord Xia, please." ”

After Lin Chonghan's operation, the displaced people and officers and soldiers in the entire greenhouse all looked at Lord Xia, all of them were curious, as if they were wondering if he would really help the refugees.

"Just go!"

Lord Xia was provoked by Lin Chonghan's words, and touched everyone's attention again, of course he would not show his timidity.

He asked people to take out a lot of relief food from the routine distribution of officers and soldiers, and then took the lead in front of the brick wall that had already been built.

"My lord," Wang San reminded him solemnly, "be careful, and stay away from these people. ”

Lord Xia didn't care: "What are you afraid of?" But they are all unarmed people, and I have attendants by my side to protect them. ”

However, he only glanced down cursoryly, and the whole person stood on the spot.

I saw that there were hungry people everywhere below, and some of them were crying weakly in the corners of the wall, and only a handful of bones were left on their bodies; Someone was crying and howling frantically, holding a dead baby in his hand; There are also people who are numbly gnawing on human flesh, and the corners of their mouths are already full of blood......

Such a picture of the famine victims is enough to make Lord Xia, who has been pampered for many years, and only knows that he is in the center of power to scold Fang Xuan and point out the Quartet, unable to move.

At this moment, I don't know who in the crowd was the first to shout-

"The government has dinner!"

Countless people were like scented flies, frantically rushing towards the city walls.

They piled up a high wall of people, hoping to climb up to the Suzhou Mansion of their dreams and live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

Countless people were dragged down by others in the middle of the climb and thrown from the sky, and so on, making people shudder.

Lord Xia grabbed the head of the city wall in a panic, he had never been so eager that the city wall could be built solid and solid.

Once these people had crossed the walls, he had no doubt that he would be the next to be eaten by them.

They are no longer human, but beasts that have lost their minds.

During the climb, he could even see that someone's thigh had been missing, leaving only a bare piece of white bone, exposed.

The stomach kept tumbling and surging, and the feeling of nausea hit his heart, and Lord Xia couldn't control it anymore, so he threw up on the other side and vomited in the dark.

The spasmodic stomach was twitching wildly, and the bright or dark eyes cast by others could no longer make Lord Xia feel ashamed, and his only thought now was only one -

These people must not be let in!
