The answer was a teenager who looked like he was only a teenager.

But the thin face is sunken, and the eyes are a little timid.

Qingqi glanced at the group of people, most of them were young and middle-aged, there were few old people and children, and even fewer women.

In such years, neither the elderly nor the children survive, and the women have even more difficulty.

Qingqi once heard her master tell her about what she had seen during her travels, talking about the years of war and famine, starvation and famine, and women and children were often food, the weak ate the strong, and there was no difference between man and beast.

She thought it was incredible.

She couldn't imagine that kind of scene, and she couldn't understand how such a thing could happen.

Until now, looking at the group of numb people in front of them, they may not have reached the step of eating Yizi, but the rotten corpses everywhere also show that it is not a legend.

"Where is your village?" Aoki asked the boy who had replied.

The fact that they were able to stay here meant that the village was not too far away, and that there were canals passing through it, and even if there was no water to eat, they should be able to occasionally rob some passing merchant ships if they were lucky.

If she guessed correctly, it was the people who had organized the looting to rebel at the docks.

And these homeless people are people who don't have much courage and just want to find an opportunity to mix some food, or find a way to leave Lingzhou.

Before, the government was afraid that the disaster would be exposed, so it sent troops to guard the road to prevent them from running, and when Lian Jinchen and them arrived, for the sake of disaster relief, they could not be allowed to run around, so as not to cause more chaos.

Qingqi waited for them to reply, but this time, the boy did not speak again.

No one spoke.

Qing Qi put down the child who could no longer move in his arms, took out the needle and pricked him a few times, his body convulsed a few times, and vomited out a pile of yellow water mixed with black things.

The smell is spicy.

But the child's father burst into tears and limped over and took the child into his arms.

Then he knelt down and kowtowed desperately to the green tree.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you......"

Their children are already sick with more air in and less breath, they can't see the doctor, they don't have anything to eat, and they only have one breath left.

He is also crazy, thinking that he will die left and right, so it is better to try his luck and throw the child out regardless of it.

didn't think about it, but I really met a noble person and picked up a life.

"If you want to live, take me to your village, and I'll let you live." Qing Qi said.

Everyone listened to her words, their faces were still numb, and the only light that fell on their carriages fell on them.

Especially the two cars in the back, obviously pulling things.

"I'll take you!" The middle-aged man holding the child trembled and got up, his voice rough but extremely firm.

It's like believing that a miracle can come to the world.

Qingqi nodded, "Let's go, go now." ”

Liu Yingzhong wanted to speak and stopped, but after hesitating, he still didn't dare to say anything.

It wasn't until he saw that the middle-aged man was really leading the way in front and Qingshu really followed, that he leaned over and whispered, "What can you do, can you ask for rain?" If it doesn't rain, they will still have no hope, and the government's relief food will not be able to eat for a few days. ”

Even if a batch of money and grain has just been sent from the capital, this amount of money and grain is not enough for one Lingzhou Mansion alone, not to mention those counties, towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Lingzhou Prefecture.

"Don't you want to be an official? I'll give you money, and you can raise a batch of food and send it over, isn't it? Qingshu asked him.

Liu Yingzhong nodded confusedly, "It's not difficult, but it's not difficult, but ...... Do you have any money? ”
