Chapter 79: The World
When Lian Jinchen commanded the people to pack up the carriages and horses and leave, the things on Qingqi's side had just been moved.
It's not that she has a lot of things, but when she decided to take Liu Yingzhong with her before leaving, Liu Yingzhong packed several large boxes of souvenirs for her in order to thank her.
Qingshu is very warm, so I can only bring it.
It took two cars to move things.
Liu Yingzhong had already witnessed Lian Xueyin's methods last time, and this time his legs were weak, but fortunately he didn't vomit.
After moving things, he cautiously came over and said to Qingqi, "I have been here before, a very lively wharf, because if the water does not pass through Lingzhou, for the livelihood of Lingzhou, the city was specially expanded here, but I didn't expect it to become like this now." ”
Now it is not desolate, but dilapidated.
It's even a little messy.
In the past, when there was no disaster, the wharf ships came and went, of course, lively, but the long-term drought, the people in the end even drank no water, the partial government was afraid of the crime, stopped the people who were exiled out of Lingzhou, and finally not only the people could not survive, but even the merchants who came and went bankrupt, so the economy of the entire Lingzhou was equivalent to a complete collapse.
The economy collapsed, the wharf was useless, and the water level was getting lower and lower due to the prolonged drought, so that even passing merchant ships did not pass here.
The green tree has never seen such a tragic image.
The wharf near Fucheng is still like this, and I don't know what the people of Lingzhou have become.
Qingqi got into the carriage and couldn't help but whisper to Lian Xueyin, "Your Majesty, can the drought in Lingzhou be solved?" ”
Lian Xueyin glanced at her, "Yes." ”
It's very casual.
Qingqi breathed a sigh of relief, he was so sure, there must still be a way.
But Qingqi's breath was not finished yet, and on the way into the city, she saw the appearance of the homeless.
She thought that what she saw at the dock was a terrible image, but when she really saw those homeless people, she knew what the world was like, the boundary near Fucheng was supposed to be like Chongyang City, but there was a strong rancid smell here.
It's the rotting smell of corpses.
There were even piles of corpses everywhere on the roadside, or scattered corpses, and the people who were still alive were numbly rummaging through the piles of corpses, and some of the displaced people who had gathered saw their ranks and wanted to come forward to grab them, but they were afraid of the forces of the officers and soldiers in front of them, and only dared to watch from a distance.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man rushed to the carriage with something like crazy, and as soon as he moved, the officers and soldiers immediately surrounded him cautiously.
But surprisingly, the middle-aged man did not really step forward, but threw the things in his arms and left them next to the carriage.
Qingqi shouted for the carriage to stop, and stretched out his head to look, only to see that it was a dying, emaciated skinny child.
Qing Qi was stunned for a moment, got up, got out, and jumped out of the carriage.
Her abrupt movement attracted everyone's attention, and the officers and soldiers surrounding the carriage quickly protected her in the middle.
"Get out of the way!" Qingqi snorted.
The officers and men were nervous and did not dare to move.
Until the voice of Lian Xueyin came from the carriage, "Tell King Chen, you go into the city first." ”
The officers and men hurried back to report to Lian Jinchen.
When Lian Jinchen heard the words of the officers and soldiers, he glanced at the rear worriedly, just in time to see Qingqi bending over and picking up the child on the ground.
His eyes froze slightly, and his heart suddenly became chaotic.
