Chapter Forty-Seven: I Don't Know Whether I'm Dead or Alive
Just now, how many corpses are still soaking in the water? How many people are still dying holding on to a tree?
They don't dare to think!
It was their fellow countrymen, their neighbors, their relatives, their fathers and sisters who had lost their breath in the water!
This time the levee burst, everyone lost too much ......
"This is not over, after the silver and grain allocated by the imperial court are stripped layer by layer, they will not reach the hands of the common people at all!"
"In such a big county, there is a soup kitchen, we can only drink a bowl of porridge from morning to night, and the porridge is so clear that we can see people!"
"What's more, there is a lot more sand and bran in the porridge than there is rice!"
People gritted their teeth and said every word, eager to explain every detail clearly, so that the two nobles in front of them knew what they had experienced.
So that they can be kind, save the villagers who are still soaking in the water, and let them go into the earth for peace, and die blindly.
Let those corpse vegetarian food waste take the stinky feet off the necks of the common people!
Looking at everyone's indignant appearances, and listening to their bloody accusations, Fu Ti and Shen Jiaojiao were silent.
They didn't expect that the matter would be so serious.
Fu Ti's face changed slightly, he had obviously sent someone to inform Song Shenxiao of Kaiyang's matter, how could things be so bad?
Hearing these people talk about the corpses floating in the water, Shen Jiaojiao chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly checked everyone's pulse, "What kind of water are you drinking?" Is it boiling? ”
"It's flooded everywhere, where is it boiling?" The crowd sighed.
How do they not know that the water cannot be drunk?
It's just that death is dying, and if you don't drink it, you'll die immediately, and you can still stand up after drinking it.
Seeing Shen Jiaojiao's solemn eyes, everyone was a little flustered, "Girl, we are not sick, are we?" ”
"It's not a big deal, just a little weak." Shen Jiaojiao checked everyone's pulse and breathed a sigh of relief, "Everyone pay attention to keeping warm, drink more hot water, and it will be good when you arrive in Kyoto." ”
Hearing this, everyone's nervous mood finally let go, took the water and dry food handed over by Shen Jiaojiao, and thanked them again and again.
Waiting for them to eat and drink, Shen Jiaojiao and Fu Ti let their horses out, helped a few seriously injured and unconscious people, tied them up, and then a group of people walked towards Kyoto.
After a day and a night, just when the people were about to lose their hold, they saw the gate of Kyoto.
The common people don't know how to read, but when they see the imposing castle gatehouse, they know that this is Kyoto.
"It's here! It's finally here! The strong man shouted loudly, waking up the glazed-eyed fellows, "Kyoto has arrived!" ”
"Kyoto? This is Kyoto! ”
"It's magnificent!"
"Let's go in and see the emperor? Is Kaiyang saved? ”
"Then for sure, the emperor lives here, he won't ignore us!"
Everyone rushed up excitedly, like a beggar seeing a white-faced bun, and their eyes were shining.
Looking at their tattered, skinny, but hopeful happy looks, Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel sad and happy for them.
In any case, if you can go to Kyoto, this life can be saved.
Glancing at Fu Ti, Shen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's up to you next." ”
Those corrupt officials dare to do this, and there is no support behind them, she absolutely does not believe it.
It's not that simple.
"Go, go, what kind of place is this, and those who stinky for food dare to come?"
"We didn't ask for food, we fled from Kaiyang."
Hearing the word Kaiyang, the team leader immediately walked over and scolded in a low voice with a gloomy face, "Hurry up and get out of here!" ”
"Please, uncle, let us in."
"We really don't want to eat, we have something to say to the emperor."
"Tsk, you don't know each other, do you?" The leader's eyes sharpened, and he waved his hand to surround the people, "Toast and don't eat and drink, come, arrest them all!" ”
Other passers-by hurriedly dodged, seeing the officers and soldiers surrounding the ragged refugees in the middle, the old man being brought down by the chaotic crowd, and the sallow child crying, "Mom, Mom, I'm afraid of ......"
are all ordinary people, such a scene makes the onlookers feel chills in their hearts, and they want to say something, but when they see the cold light blades in the hands of the guards, they hold back.
The refugees who were surrounded in the middle struggled, and when they saw that they could not hold on, suddenly there was a sword roar, and a thin and graceful figure fell in front of them, waving his sword to pick away the menacing guards, blocking the front of the refugees.
Looking at the glamorous and bold woman in front of him, Leader Qian sneered, "Yohe, there are people who are not afraid of death." ”
"Girl, I advise you not to meddle in your business!"
The leader was a thief, and it was not a good thing at first glance, Shen Jiaojiao frowned, and held a long sword in front of the refugees, "Get acquainted, get out." ”
"What a big breath." Qian Leader Ji sneered, glanced at Shen Jiaojiao regretfully, and suddenly his face changed, "A woman who doesn't know whether to live or die, come, take down the person for me!" ”
Looking at the guards who were rushing over, Shen Jiaojiao's wrist flicked, and the long sword made a buzzing whistle, and she was about to attack the enemy.
Suddenly, a familiar figure stood in front of her, snatching the long sword from her hand, and the long jade body was able to solve the guard with ease.
Looking at his chic and powerful back, Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help but cut it, turned around and helped the old man and woman behind him.
"Girl, what's going on?"
"Why did you arrest us?"
"It's not going to happen, is it?"
Everyone looked at Shen Jiaojiao with a frightened expression, hoping to get some comfort from her.
These people have been through so much that they really can't withstand any blows.
The child in the arms of the middle-aged woman has even turned pale, and if it is not treated as soon as possible, I am afraid that it will be life-threatening.
"Girl, do you think my daughter will be fine?" The woman looked at Shen Jiaojiao with a worried expression, her eyes full of anxiety and trust.
"Sister Li, Yaya will be fine." Shen Jiaojiao comforted.
Looking at the anticipation in their eyes, Shen Jiaojiao helped the skinny old man and said loudly: "Don't worry, leave it to him here, let's go first!" ”
With Shen Jiaojiao's voice, Fu Ti made a thunderous move, forcing the guards into a corner, and Shen Jiaojiao immediately led everyone to Shourentang.
"This girl is so bold." Onlookers couldn't help but sigh that a girl's family dared to do such a thing.
"Dare to break into the city, I don't think I want to live!"
"Look at those people, how did they lose weight like that? Where are the refugees? ”
"I haven't heard of it......"
"Could it be some kind of illness?"
