Togo House.

At this moment, on the official road from Dongxiang Mansion to Liaoyun Pass, thousands of people are moving in the direction of Liaoyun Pass under the drive of a group of officials.

Dongxiang Mansion is a relatively southern province in Liaobei County, and this time it was also affected by the disaster, and a large number of landless people were born in the prefecture, and they became displaced people, which became an unstable factor in Dongxiang Prefecture.

Upon the arrival of the delegation from Unju County, the prefect of Dongxiang Prefecture immediately agreed to the delegation's deal.

This is already the fourth batch of people in Dongxiang Mansion who have been driven to Liaoyun Pass, and the officials are also very proficient, but they have been calm all the way.

Among the displaced people, hundreds of people were numbly driven forward, all of them looked half-dead, their eyes were blank, their hands and feet were soft, and they kept moving forward only with their numb will, they didn't know what tomorrow would be, but they knew that they wouldn't even have tomorrow when they stopped here.

"Grandpa, where are we going? I'm so hungry, is I going to leave like my father? ”

In the crowd, a seven or eight-year-old girl with unkempt hair, a hair yellow like a weed due to malnutrition, a thin body, as if the wind could blow away, and a seven or eight-year-old girl wearing patches everywhere said these words in a trance.

Xiao Nannan is eight years old this year, her grandfather and father are blacksmiths, and the family used to rely on iron farming tools, and the family still has a few acres of land, but life is not bad, at least not hungry.

But since last year's drought, after the crazy rise in grain prices, everyone can't even eat, and no one continues to make new farm tools, and the family's fields are also out of harvest, so in order to survive, the family sold all the fields to the Zhang landlord in the village, but the grain in exchange is still not enough to eat, and the family has reached the dangerous juncture of running out of food a few days ago.

Seven or eight days ago, after Xiao Nannan's father and mother left the last bit of food to Xiao Nannan and her grandfather, the husband and wife jumped into the well hand in hand, and since then Xiao Nannan has only left her grandfather and grandson to depend on each other.

But even if Xiao Nannan's parents left, the remaining little food was still not enough for the grandfather and grandson to live, as early as two days ago, the grandfather and grandson ran out of food, and those officials came to the village to arrest people, so the grandfather and grandson appeared in this group of displaced people.

The little girl who had been hungry for two days only felt that the little stars were constantly flashing in front of her, and her body was mechanically dragged forward by her grandfather, but it seemed that her father and mother had appeared in front of her.

Although Xiao Nannan is only eight years old, she has seen a lot of things, and the second girl seems to be what she is now before she was buried in the soil by her father.

Erniu's father and mother said that this is Erniu's grandparents who came to pick her up.

Is this my father and mother going to pick me up?

went to my father's side, is it that Xiao Nan will never be hungry again in the future?

Xiao Nan Nan wanted to eat cakes, but Xiao Nan Nan used to think that the cakes were difficult to eat, especially after the drought last year, the bran cakes that the family often ate were still stuck in their throats.

But now that I think about it, the chaff cake is so delicious, it seems that there is one in front of me now!

……

Holding his granddaughter's hand and continuing to move forward, listening to what his granddaughter said, Lao Litou's face was full of grief, more than fifty people, first his son and daughter-in-law threw themselves into the well in order to let themselves live this old thing and Xiao Nannan, and left the last grain to him and Xiao Nannan, and now it is difficult that even this little granddaughter has to leave his old man?

I'm really useless!

Holding his granddaughter's hand, he couldn't help but tighten it again, feeling the small hand in his hand that was already skinny like a dry branch, and Lao Li's heart was dripping blood.

God, why do you treat our family like this, you really don't give people a way to live!

Don't give you any way to live!!

"Grandpa...... Grandfather...... I seem to have seen my father and mother kiss...... They're coming to pick them up...... They say there are so many loaves there...... After following them, they won't be hungry anymore......"

Xiao Nan Nan was already hungry and began to talk nonsense, Lao Li squatted down in distress and hugged her tightly.

However, he hasn't eaten for a few days, and he doesn't have much strength anymore, even if it's Xiao Nannan's boneless weight now. He couldn't hold her for long, and in the end he could only put her down, and the grandfather and grandson continued to move forward with difficulty.

Soon, the sun rose to noon, the procession finally stopped, and everyone was allowed to rest.

The grandfather and grandson were finally able to find a place to rest.

It didn't matter if he was barely awake just now, the little girl who was barely awake just now fainted directly in his arms.

Lao Li Tou was sad but helpless, he knew that this was a little girl who was about to lose his power.

He didn't know how long Xiao Nan Nan could stay with his old thing, maybe a day, maybe two days, but he knew that this damn world, his old thing would soon go with Xiao Nan to find his son and daughter-in-law.

It's the old man who is sorry for them and didn't take good care of the little girl.

Lao Li Tou thought about it, and his consciousness gradually became a little blurred.

In a daze, he only felt as if there was a faint vibration on the ground.

Not long after, a sweet liquid poured in from the throat, it was water!

The body instinctively swallowed quickly, and after a while, an attractive fragrance entered the tip of the nose, and the stomach began to haunt, and Lao Li Tou woke up from the coma.

A somewhat honest face appeared in front of him, looking at himself with a smile: "Uncle, are you okay?" ”

Lao Li Tou took a closer look at this time, and the owner of this honest and big face turned out to be a man, a man wearing armor, and he should be a soldier.

In the habit of ordinary people, Old Man Li subconsciously sat up straight, and hurriedly said: "Master Bing, I really don't have anything for you, old man, you can do well, let me go!" ”

The honest man was stunned for a moment, then showed a wry smile, touched the back of his head and said helplessly: "Uncle, you misunderstood me, I didn't come to rob things, I am the escort under the command of King Yun, and I came to approach you people who are going to Yunzhou County on the order of King Yun."

I'm not going to rob you of your things, I've brought you food, don't believe me! ”

Saying that, the man picked up the things in his hand, and the old man Li noticed that the man was actually holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, which was still thick like mush, full of large bowls!

At this time, the old man should have snatched the porridge bowl and started to eat it, but Li Laohan did not do this, but looked at the bowl of porridge in a daze, a little distracted.

He thought of his son and daughter-in-law, and he thought of his little granddaughter.

If they had this bowl of porridge in front of them at that time, maybe their family wouldn't have ......

Just as the old man was thinking about this, suddenly a familiar child's voice in his ears made him quickly come back to his senses, and he looked to the side in disbelief.

"Grandpa, why don't you eat porridge? The porridge given by these big brothers is delicious, the little girl has never eaten such delicious porridge, grandpa, you can eat it too! ”

I thought that the little granddaughter who was gone was actually next to me!

The little girl is still alive!

A huge surprise surged in his heart, and in the blink of an eye, Lao Li Tou was already in tears......

"Little girl...... Woowoowoo......"

I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten for a day, I'm going to eat
