Two days later, two men and one woman arrived in front of the attic, which was in ruins.

These three people are all under forty years old, one of the men is dark-skinned and capable, it is Zhao Ziming's third uncle Zhao Wuchang, and the identities of the other two are about to come out, the middle-aged man with a square face and a tall figure is Zhao Ziming's second uncle Zhao Wugang, and the last woman is naturally his second aunt Long Liying.

Zhao Wuchang hurriedly dismounted, ran to the ruins, squatted on the ground with a sad face, and shouted sadly: "Heaven is dead to my Zhao family!"

Zhao Wugang didn't have much sadness, but said with some regret: "My nephew's life is hard, I originally wanted to take you back to my home after the New Year, so as to leave some incense for my eldest brother's lineage, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, but it is a pity, a pity." ”

As for Long Liying, she will not be sad anymore, not only that, but she is even quite happy, and the thorn in her eye for many years is gone, and her only worry is gone.

As time passed, this terrifying wolf tide quietly began and ended, no matter how many people died, it finally quietly disappeared into the dust of history, and gradually few people mentioned it.

......

Guling County is located at the western end of Yulin County, at the end of a branch of the Yulin Mountains, because it is close to the largest jade producing area in the country, so it is one of the largest counties in the county.

At noon, the scorching sun shines all over the land, and the sound of cicadas chirps over and over again, making people feel irritated.

A young man in ragged clothes and messy hair appeared outside the city gate, he looked up at the city, and gently read the words "Guling County" in his mouth, and then walked into the city with the flow of people.

This young man is Zhao Ziming, as soon as the wolf tide receded, he burned the attic where he had lived for 12 years, picked a trail and left Sansheng Village, bypassing several counties all the way, completely away from the boundaries of Cangnan County, trekking for three months, and finally came here.

During the period, I slept in the open air, and I didn't say much about the suffering, if it wasn't for the internal strength in my body, I would have been unable to endure it for a long time.

Sansheng Village was destroyed, Sun Laohan also died in the wolf tide, no one knew that Zhao Ziming's departure was equivalent to removing the shackles on him, he immediately made a decision to leave Cangnan County, so there was this trip to March.

Zhao Ziming stopped, looked at the food on the roadside stall, his throat rolled unconsciously, and his stomach rumbled, he hadn't eaten for two days.

"What are you looking at? The fat stall owner behind the baked cake stall waved his hand in disgust, and the spit spurted far away.

Zhao Ziming touched his stomach, and finally turned around and walked into the alley next to him.

Guling County is hundreds of miles away from Cangnan County, and Zhao Ziming is now completely out of Long Liying's control, and he is ready to settle here.

The first thing to solve in front of him is to solve the problem of eating, Zhao Ziming has read a lot of biographies of the rivers and lakes, so he is not ignorant of making a living, he plans to find a hard job to do first, and get through the current difficulties.

He turned left and right, and asked a number of passers-by, and although there were not many who were willing to deal with him, he also got what he wanted to know.

The west of the city is a warehouse area, and more than ninety percent of the large stores in the county have warehouses here. Cargo handling requires a large number of workers, so it is the most frequented place for the poor.

"You're going to be a porter?" asked the man who spoke, with a two-handed, figure-of-eight mustache and a small round hat, looking a little funny, as he looked at the beggar-like guy in front of him with suspicion.

"Yes. Zhao Ziming nodded, knowing that it was better to say than to do, so he walked to a carriage parked on the side of the road, grabbed a bulging hemp bag on the car with both hands, and then snorted lightly and lifted it above his head.

"Alright, you can stay. Seeing this, the man in the small round hat said without hesitation with a look of doubt on his face.

Zhao Ziming was overjoyed and was about to thank him. Suddenly, a loud gong sounded from the front, but it was a man in green clothes holding a gong, shouting while knocking and walking: "Lone wolf gang recruits!"

The man was followed by several black-clothed men, glancing around with a gleam in his eyes, and behind them, more than a dozen tattered-clad teenagers followed suit, their expressions quite excited.

When the team passed by Zhao Ziming, they suddenly stopped, and a black-clothed subordinate came out of the crowd, came to Zhao Ziming, and asked, "Are you an orphan?"

Zhao Ziming was inexplicable, but the young man in black gave him a very depressed feeling, and he replied honestly: "Yes." ”

"Come with me if you want to eat. The young man in black pointed to the dozen teenagers, "With them." ”

Zhao Ziming subconsciously wanted to refuse, but remembering the sentence "Lone Wolf Gang recruits" that the man in Tsing Yi shouted before, his heart moved, and he asked, "Can I join your gang when I come?"

The young man in black had no interest in answering, turned around coldly, returned to his original position, and left Zhao Ziming with a back.

The gong sounded again, and the group continued to set off and move forward, ignoring Zhao Ziming.

"Hey, buddy, come on!" a young man at the end of the line grinned at Zhao Ziming with bared teeth, and shouted in a low voice.

Zhao Ziming hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth and followed. As for the man in the little round hat, when the men in Tsing Yi came over, he avoided them far away, and seemed to be very afraid of them, so he naturally would not stop Zhao Ziming.

The young man who greeted him came to Zhao Ziming's side and asked in a low voice, "Dude, it's a great thing for us to recruit new people from the Lone Wolf Gang, why are you still hesitating?"

Zhao Ziming glanced ahead and saw that the young men in black didn't react, so he asked, "Can we join the Lone Wolf Gang if we follow them?"

The boy shook his head and said, "I've heard from others that you have to pass some tests before you can join the gang. ”

In this way, the two chatted without saying a word, most of the time it was Zhao Ziming who asked, and the young man who called himself Yuntu gushed everything he knew like a bean.

It turned out that the so-called Lone Wolf Gang was the second largest gang in Yulin County, and it was famous even in the entire Great Departure Country. Unlike other gangs, the Lone Wolf Gang has a special rule that only accepts orphans who have no father or mother.

When Zhao Ziming asked what test he wanted to pass, Yun Tu smiled and said embarrassedly: "I don't know, but they will let us eat before the test." ”

After walking for a while, he was probably so hungry that he ran out of strength, and Yun Tu also closed his mouth, feeling a little sluggish.

The man in Tsing Yi led everyone through the streets and alleys of Xicheng District, and recruited five or six people, all of whom were orphans and teenagers of the same age as Zhao Ziming.

It wasn't until the sun set that the man in Tsing Yi stopped in front of a manor, turned around and looked at all the teenagers coldly, and said: "As soon as you enter this door, you will be counted as half a lone wolf gang disciple, unless you die, there will be no way out, and now I regret leaving, I will not stop you." ”

There was a slight commotion in the crowd, but after a while, no one left.

Seeing this, the man in Tsing Yi said: "Let's go to the village for dinner, remember one, my lone wolf gang is the most important to obey orders, you must not make noise and quarrel in the village, otherwise, you will die." ”

The word "death" at the end is very loud!

As soon as the words fell, he and the young men in black walked in first.

The orphans were intimidated by the momentum of the man in Tsing Yi, I look at you, you look at me, and I don't dare to move my feet. In the end, a few bold orphans walked in, and the others crossed the threshold one after another.

Yuntu was originally going to rush to the front, but was stopped by Zhao Ziming, and the two fell last.

Entering the gate was a wide courtyard, empty, without much decoration, only a few lit fires stood on all sides, and in the middle of the courtyard were ten large square tables, almost each of which sat seven or eight teenagers, all of whom were orphans!

Of course, the orphans who can live alone until now are not stupid, Zhao Ziming's group of people consciously separated, found a place to sit down, and filled all the seats.

The whole courtyard was very quiet, no one spoke, even the sound of breathing was very weak, and there was a calm and solemn atmosphere in the air.

Zhao Ziming was secretly strange, suddenly glanced down, saw a few pools of blood on the ground, his heart was cold, he suddenly realized something, and hurriedly sat up straight and stopped moving.

In addition to these orphans, there were also four men in Tsing Yi in the courtyard, including the one who led Zhao Ziming and his party over, they got together and discussed something in a low voice, and then left from the other side of the courtyard.

As soon as they left, more than a dozen women carrying burdens poured out of the side door, and with it, the smell of food.

The women put down their burdens, took out the pots of steamed buns in the baskets, and began to place them on the large table.

The orphans were already very hungry, and when they saw the food at the moment, how could they hold back, they took the steamed buns and stuffed them into their mouths.

Fortunately, there would have been another woman in the pot, otherwise, even if there was a bloody lesson ahead, these hungry orphans would not know what would have happened.

After the steamed buns were distributed, the women carried their burdens and left silently, and a few young men in black carried several large jars of water into the courtyard.

Two quarters of an hour later, the well-fed orphans, led by the women from earlier, came to a side room in the depths of the Zhuangzi, where four or five people lived in one room.

The room was a bunk, several people were huddled together, and Yun Tu and Zhao Ziming slept next to each other. It was still early at this time, but except for Zhao Ziming and Yuntu, the others were all asleep.
