After five years of great dry peace and happiness, Qingzhou was in great drought, hunger, and cannibalism.

The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.

In the vast world, only the two colors of withered yellow remain, and everything has long been silent.

Don't talk about birds and beasts, even snakes, insects, rats and ants, there is not half of them.

However, in this desolate scene, there were one after another thin figures, numb and staggering.

They are people, people fleeing from the famine.

From time to time, someone falls to the ground and never gets up again.

Chen Mo's expression was sluggish and numb, and his body was withered, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

In order to keep out the cold, he was covered with layers of clothes that I don't know from whom.

He couldn't remember how many days he had been in this world, and he only had one thought left in his mind, hungry, to eat.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing to eat in heaven and earth, and even the bark of the dead trees had been stripped away.

He didn't have the strength to think, just took a numb step forward.

He didn't know if he really had a way to live, but if he stopped, he would die.

I don't know how long I walked, but a low thatched shack appeared in front of me.

Chen Mo paused, turned his head and glanced back.

Behind him, there was a thin figure not much different from him, the same covered in mud and the same layers of torn clothes.

It's just that compared to him, the other party is shorter and thinner.

Chen Mo didn't know his name, age, or gender, in fact, the two didn't say a few words in total.

But in the days since they fled, the two sides have forged a de facto alliance.

It is too dangerous for a person to escape from the famine, and he may be caught as a vegetable man.

The two watched and helped each other, and it was somewhat safer.

There are lonely refugees, so why take the risk of attacking two people.

Not to mention that if you accidentally fall down, someone may have a chance to stand up with help, and you can only wait for death on your own.

Or when you can't sleep in the morning, someone shouts that there is still a chance to wake up, and if no one shouts, you will slowly die in your sleep.

The other party was not his first companion, Chen Mo had many companions before, and some of them were killed by him because of a little food.

More often than not, after falling asleep, they can't wake up again.

The expressions of the companions behind them were numb and did not change, they were so hungry that they did not have the strength to do anything superfluous in their thoughts and expressions.

Seeing that he was still coming, Chen Mo was relieved and continued to walk towards the grass hut.

His steps were slow, and he was walking rather than moving little by little.

Gradually approaching the grass hut, Chen Mo saw a gray-black figure that was obviously stronger than him, and the man did not avoid him when he saw him, but took the initiative to walk towards him.

Chen Mo was immediately alert in his heart, after fleeing for so long, in most cases, when encountering other refugees, both sides would take the initiative to keep their distance first.

Because no one is sure whether the other party will treat themselves as food.

And this time there were two of them, and the other party dared to lean over first!

"What are you going to do?" As the other party gradually approached, Chen Mo gathered his strength and asked in a low voice!

The man paused, looked Chen Mo up and down, and then looked at his partner behind him.

It seems to be comparing the tall, short, fat and thin, strength and weakness between the two.

However, looking at the two of them, they unconsciously revealed a desire for food.

"Brother, I see that you have been hungry for so long, I have some food, why don't we eat some together."

A smile broke out of his face and he swallowed unconsciously.

"Okay!" Chen Mo smiled and did not rush to refuse.

"Okay, you come with me." Hearing Chen Mo's promise, his eyes couldn't help but show joy.

Hurriedly turning around to leave, Chen Mo gritted his teeth and took two big steps, stretched out his hand to strangle the other party's neck.

He had a dagger on him, but the other party was wearing layers of clothes like him, and he couldn't cut at all.

The person who was strangled by his neck used all his strength to resist desperately, Chen Mo's feet were unstable, and he fell to the ground heavily.

He still strangled the other party and would never let go no matter what.

The current world is afraid that people will take their own food, and no one will want to share it with others.

The other party must not be at ease, most likely treating him and his companions as food!

Although his companion didn't know what was happening, he still staggered to catch up, pulled out the piece of iron he was carrying, aimed at the other's eyes and plunged into it.

"Ahh The man was in pain but had no strength, and could not cry out at all, but could only whimper in a low voice.

His companion wanted to pierce deeper, but he had no strength, so he had no choice but to press all his weight on the dagger and slowly stab it little by little.

Chen Mo was relieved to see his companions coming.

Fortunately, with his help, otherwise with his current strength, he really wouldn't be able to strangle the other party.

With the dagger completely submerged in the head, the man stopped struggling.

The companion struggled to get up with crutches, and slowly moved the man's body away to help Chen Mo get up from the ground.

Things that are incomparably simple to do on weekdays are like half their lives for the two of them who have run out of oil.

Passing over the corpses on the ground, the two men helped each other to move their feet and continued to walk forward.

They are hungry, but they have not yet broken through the bottom line of being human.

It is because of this similarity that the two can form an alliance.

When he came to the thatched shed, Chen Mo's eyes suddenly straightened, and he saw a pot of black porridge.

Hurriedly stepped forward and stirred the horse spoon in the pot.

There was everything in the soup, rhizomes of unknown things, some wheat and wild vegetables, and even two rat heads and rat meat.

Seeing the rat head Chen Mo relieved, this means that the meat in the pot must be rat meat, as for whether there is meat or not, he will not think about this question.

Ignoring nothing else, Chen Mo scooped up a spoonful and sent it to his mouth.

Sweet, refreshingly sweet!

He couldn't describe the taste, the porridge was better than any delicacies he had ever tasted!

Picking up the broken porcelain bowl next to the pot, Chen Mo hurriedly filled a bowl and handed it to his companion.

Porridge is very important, but he doesn't want to conflict with his companions, and the two of them have to walk together.

A pot of cooked meat and wheat porridge was eaten by the two of them, and even the pot and bowl were licked to the bridle.

After eating some food, Chen Mo finally had the strength to think about the problem.

Do you want to go now, or stay in the shack for the night?

The shacks are simple, but there is a lot of thatched grass to keep out the cold.

If you move forward, you may not be able to find the next shelter before dark.

While spending the night outside, it is still unknown whether the two will wake up tomorrow.

But if you stay, it is unknown whether you will have the strength to continue walking tomorrow.

Chen Mo didn't want to think about it for too long, so he made a decisive decision and walked out with the stick he found to support his body.

The companion was speechless, just silently followed.

The two walked together, and every time Chen Mo made the decision, he was already used to listening to each other.

At a faster speed than before, Chen Mo kept moving into the distance.

As the two of them gradually moved away, the figure outside the shack sat up suddenly, the dagger in his eyes disappeared, and there was no injury left.

He stood up and walked into the shack, and when he saw the shiny bottom of the pot, his eyes revealed an infinite desire for food.

Search everything in front of you to find the slightest food to eat.

Eventually, he looked at his finger, wasn't this just a piece of meat!
