Chapter 378: The Children in the City
In such a tense situation, the people in the city naturally did not have the same enthusiasm as before.
Especially in such a depressing atmosphere, they feel more fear than ever.
And this fear soon spread.
Even Jack, the militia who has always been imposing, is also infected by this atmosphere.
Although from the very beginning, I have thought that staying in the city is equivalent to looking for death.
But compared with the mentality of today, it is not the same state at all.
So even if they were imposing at the beginning, fear still rises in their hearts now.
And in such a state of fear, it naturally and imperceptibly changes the blood in the hearts of the militiamen.
It's the same as Qin He guessed before.
In such a situation, a rumor also spread among the crowd.
It's the same as Nanyang City at the beginning.
This rumor broke through the last psychological defense line of the people in the city.
No one knows where this rumor came from, but compared to the current situation, it is.
Up to now, the Lord Qin in their mouths has not had any way to solve the current situation.
And those who remain in the city now must have only a dead end.
Even the people who remain in this Qinghe City now have already made the determination to die.
But when he really faced death, he still showed the fear of death.
As a result, the morale of the entire Qinghe City plummeted. This is obviously extremely unfavorable to them in Qinhe now.
Originally, when this news came out, some people speculated that Lord Qin would definitely find out the person who spread the rumors as soon as possible.
and directly executed to make an example of what to do.
However, the results were beyond everyone's expectations.
Lord Qin not only did not pursue this matter, but even acted as if he did not know.
Let such rumors spread in the city.
And this situation has also indirectly led many people to think that even the current Lord Qin has completely given up struggling.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the city became even more depressed again.
Some people have also asked Qin He's opinion on this matter.
However, the answer is to let these guys stir up trouble down there.
When given such an answer, many militiamen always feel as if something is wrong.
If it weren't for that, how could Lord Qin say such a thing?
And this kind of words also have two meanings.
The good thing is that Lord Qin already knows about the current situation, not as unaware as the original rumors.
Since you are still knowingly letting it go, then you either rely on it or ......
It's really not going to resist.
Of course, even in such a situation, for the people in the city, they can still accept it, even if they die, they must stand with Lord Qin.
But now the only thing they are worried about is the outflow of another rumor, and now Lord Qin is not just giving up.
There were even rumors that Lord Qin planned to pay for his life from the people of a city.
As for why, up to now, Lord Qin hasn't made any moves.
This is also explained in the rumors, that is, because Lord Qin has not negotiated with the other party now.
If it is agreed, it means that the people of the city will face death.
And their beloved Lord Qin will survive.
But the price was borne by the people of their city.
For such an ending, perhaps most people don't care about it anymore.
But reason tells them that if this is the case, then it means that all that they have done has been in vain.
And the reason why they chose to stay here and share the hardships with Lord Qin was actually because Lord Qin was kind to them, and they always kept it in their hearts.
In fact, the moment they chose to stay, they were ready to die.
But if this is really the case, it is natural to die, and they don't want to do it in their hearts.
Of course, the premise is that Lord Qin is by betraying the people in the city in exchange for a living.
If Lord Qin stayed with them until the last moment, they would even be willing to block all the damage for Lord Qin.
Two different situations, but two different results.
Naturally, people prefer the second case.
And not the first.
Qin He, who had just walked down from the city wall, looked at the people in the layer, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
For he knew that all the people who remained in the city today would believe in him.
Otherwise, how could they choose to stay in this Qinghe City at such a time?
Just as Qin He was thinking in his heart, suddenly a voice pulled his thoughts back.
When Qin He looked in the direction where the voice came from, he suddenly found that a militiaman was walking over from a distance with a little boy at this moment.
When he arrived here, Qin He couldn't help frowning.
For he had already ordered that all the old and weak women and children in the city should be moved to the island.
But now there is a boy in this city, which naturally makes him frown.
By the time the militia had gone, Qin He had already taken the lead in asking.
"What the hell is going on, why are there children in the city?"
When the militiaman heard Qin He ask this, the expression on his face couldn't help but become a little ugly.
In fact, he didn't know how the child appeared.
If it weren't for the fact that when he was patrolling the city just now, he found someone fighting, and he wouldn't have known about the existence of this child.
Of course, it's not so much a fight as this kid's one-sided sprinkling.
The militia naturally knew that now that there were children in the city, it would naturally attract the attention of Lord Qin.
It was precisely because of this that he brought the child directly over as soon as possible, so that Lord Qin could deal with it.
Perhaps because he saw it, and the militia didn't know the reason at this moment, Qin He turned his gaze to the little boy.
When Qin He looked at the little boy, he found that the little boy's gaze at this moment revealed a touch of fanaticism.
This fanaticism seems to be the idol he admired the most in his time, that kind of look.
While seeing this, Qin He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
He naturally saw the adoration of the child in front of him at this moment.
However, for him, a child staying in this Qinghe City naturally does not allow him.
Before Qin He could open his mouth to ask, the little boy had already shouted excitedly.
"Lord Qin, do you remember? I was hugged by you once. ”
In the little boy's words full of anticipation, Qin He couldn't think of anything.
But for now, he didn't want to discourage the little boy's interest, so he nodded immediately.
