Of course, those are too far, although Li Ping'an is worried, but the most important thing at the moment is to save his life on the way to escape the famine. After all, if the little life is gone, those distant worries will naturally be gone.

Spent the most down-to-earth night in the house since embarking on the road to escape, or not to say that they all value the house so much, although it is not their own house, but it is also a shelter from the wind and rain, and the thick walls bring people too much security.

In the morning, when preparing the day's food, some people suggested that they should not leave, and stay in this house until the imperial court came to provide disaster relief, which was less than ten days' walk from Xiaochen Village—it would take so long to escape from the famine, but in fact it would be shorter—and they could return to Xiaochen Village to rebuild their homes.

If you can't leave, no one wants to leave their homeland.

But everyone didn't know what the situation was outside, and they didn't know when they would be able to wait for the imperial court to provide disaster relief, they only knew that there were refugees everywhere, and they had never seen rice in any field after walking for so long.

If they want to live, they have to flee.

According to Dr. Zhu, vinegar is a commonly used material in the preparation of medicinal materials, which can correct odor and taste, reduce the toxicity of drugs, and facilitate storage.

Li Ping'an was very fortunate to meet Dr. Zhu, he only knew that earthworms could be eaten and were rich in protein, but he didn't know that eating a large amount of earthworms could lead to poisoning.

Of course, he didn't think that even if he didn't have Dr. Zhu, he would do bad things with good intentions, to be honest, the earthworms they dug up were not enough for one person.

During the day, when he was on the road, Dr. Zhu put all the vinegared earth dragons in the most conspicuous position, so that those homeless people could see that they were all digging earth dragons and eating them, so that no one would always stare at their belongings with ill intentions.

After a night's rest, there are more homeless people on the road, although most of them are illiterate and short-sighted, but some people are stupid, some people are shrewd, and some people pretend to be confused, they all know that the state city will not always manage them, no matter how good the officials of the state capital are, they can't conjure up rice and grain out of thin air, so many homeless people are squeezing to the state city, but there is only one porridge shed and two cauldrons, which is clearly a disguised drive people.

There are people with fast feet to catch up, Li Ping'an also got some news from their fragmented conversations, there are homeless people outside the state city to grab other people's porridge, for adults to eat a bowl of porridge a day is equivalent to not eating, porridge shed can not mix superfluous, so he set his eyes on the weak.

For example, when the woman feeds the child porridge, the porridge is snatched, and the child, who is only two or three years old, only eats one bite, and is so hungry that he cries, and may starve to death one day.

There are too many refugees, and the state army and government officials can't take care of them at all.

Li Ping'an's heart was uncomfortable, no wonder the gods in the sky made a mistake and would be demoted to the world, how could this scene not be a purgatory?

It's good to be dead, and get rid of it when you're dead. In this dog's world, you will only be tortured if you are alive.

The next day, while on their way, a thin woman fell to her knees with a baby in her arms and blocked their way.

"Good manners, good masters, enjoy a bite to eat, the child is about to starve to death."

Li Ping'an was about to step forward to take a closer look, when he saw Li Erlin take out the woodcutter inserted in his waist, pointed at the woman and said sharply: "You get out of the way, otherwise I will chop you to death and pick up a child to eat!" ”

The woman trembled with fright, but even so, she had no intention of getting out of the way, and kept kneeling there kowtowing and begging.

It's strange, she is moving so much, but the baby in her arms is not moving at all, I don't know if she faints from hunger or what's going on. Li Ping'an kept an eye on it and vigilantly observed the environment on both sides of the official road.

He's not a good guy, but he's definitely not a bad guy either, and he can have a little kindness on the premise of keeping himself safe. But apparently this is not the time to show mercy, because there are so many refugees in the past, and if they have a little soft-hearted heart and give a little food, those refugees will flock to them and ask for food.

Besides, the day before yesterday, some homeless people kindly reminded them that there were cannibals in front of them, and after walking for two days, they suddenly encountered someone stopping them, and they felt that something was wrong no matter how they thought about it.

"What are you doing listening to her talk so much nonsense!"

Just as Li Ping'an was observing, a voice sounded, and then he saw a shadow walking from behind him to the front, he looked at it fixedly, and only then did he see clearly that this figure was his aunt Li Dafang.

I saw Li Dafang carrying a firewood knife and walking to the kneeling woman, raising it high and slashing at the woman's head, the woman let out a scream, and as soon as she fell to the ground, the firewood knife missed, crossed in front of the woman, and hung in the air to stop on the baby who didn't know whether to live or die, and almost cut the baby.

Li Dafang's gaze swept over the baby's face and took a sip, "What the hell, hold a dead baby and stop us begging for food!" The old lady fled north seventeen years ago, and killed the deserters who came down from the battlefield with a hoe. ”

The woman looked horrified at the sharpened knife that had not been withdrawn, and when she heard this, she hurriedly left the child and crawled away.

Li Ping'an swallowed his saliva, he had heard of the aunt's majesty and domineering since he was a child, but it was better to see it than to hear it, it was really domineering that he couldn't imagine. There was a sentence in his throat that "aunt is mighty" that wanted to erupt, but he still held it back.

Li Ping'an was stunned, Li Ping'an had heard of his aunt's "glorious deeds", but those people in Xiaochen Village had never heard of it, in their impression, Li Dafang was in a hurry, and she was magnificent, and it was the first time she had seen her with such a fierce side.

is worthy of a person who has escaped in a chaotic world, and it is really difficult to survive without this ruthlessness.

Li Dafang looked back at the stunned crowd, angry, and glared at Li Erlin and Zhang Yu with hatred, "When are you still grinding, you should be ruthless." ”

"Aren't I just going to do it, and you're ahead of the curve." Li Erlin said with a flattering smile, when they fled north, he was only as big as Li Ping'an now, and there were fathers, second uncles, third uncles, and eldest brothers, sisters and cousins in front of him.

It's just that he needs a little psychological construction, and in this process, Li Dafang took the first step.

Zhang Yu said dryly: "I didn't rub in, I was just waiting for Erlin to shout." ”

Li Erlin glanced at his brother-in-law sadly, I can't imagine that you, a thick-eyed and big-eyed person, actually engage in backstabbing? wanted to argue a few words, but before he could speak, he was blocked by Li Dafang.

"Forget it, there will be a crisp next time. A few men dug a hole on the side of the road and buried the dead baby. ”

The child is innocent in the end, and he has been dead for a long time, and he can't bear to expose his body to the wilderness, or be picked up and eaten. Let him be buried in the earth, so that he can be reincarnated, and find a good family to enjoy in the next life.

In the meantime, everyone continued on the road, but there was a stone on their hearts, and they all knew that they were afraid that they would be targeted.

However, after this experience, the eyes of those strangers who accompanied them were also full of horror, after all, they also saw it just now, this group of people really dared to use knives.

Some even quickened their pace, just wanting to distance themselves from them, for fear that one day they would not have anything to eat, and they would kill them and eat meat. Some of them didn't know where to flee anyway, so they simply followed this group of ruthless people, so that they could be safer.
