If you don't have this pot of salty soup, you really don't know how to eat this piece of gnocchi in your hand, so you will tear the gnocchi into pieces and soak it in a cold soup. Because in this kind of place, if you eat too slowly, you may be targeted.

More than 800 laborers were crammed into a place that was said to be a museum but was actually more like a warehouse, with no tables, chairs, beds, hundreds of worn-out blankets on the ground, even quilts and mattresses.

Of course, many laborers who went north to find a job were not stupid, bringing a change of clothes and bedding together, and some even moved here with their families, obviously planning to gain a foothold in the Northern Wilderness in the future.

After Xianyu finished eating, he and a group of laborers crowded in the corner, and the night was getting darker, and everyone chatted in order to relieve their loneliness, and no one wanted to be alone in this kind of place thousands of miles away from home.

"I came all the way because of the drought in the village, my parents were so hungry that they couldn't walk, and even the bark of the trees in the eight villages within a radius of ten miles was gnawed. The man with a strong local accent curled up and told his past.

"You're talking about the drought in Hedong Province, right? Another person said in a matter-of-fact manner: "It is said that the great drought was really a thousand miles of red land, and even the capital city of Yujing was affected. I have a cousin who joined the army and happened to be sent to Hedong Daozhou County for disaster relief. When I took a look, I realized that there was still a disaster to be saved, and people starved to death from village to village. At that time, the weather was hot, and in order to prevent the spread of the plague, the entire village could only be burned down with a single fire. ”

"There is a big drought in Hedong Road, and there will be a big flood in Huainan Road. Another bald man scolded and said, "In the past few years, the sky has been like a hole, and the rain has been raining day and night. Some prefectures and county offices were flooded for more than half a month, killing thousands of people. My family's seedlings were out of harvest for two years, and then I heard that the relief warehouse at the Yamen Gate was going to be empty, so I followed the Cao Gang of the canal to the north, and went around and around to come to the Northern Wilderness. ”

"It's really God's eyes, disasters continue every year, but the Northern Wilderness looks like a little safer. ”

"Who says it's not, thanks to the immortal chief who opened up the road to the Northern Wilderness back then, otherwise we wouldn't know where to go today. ”

"Bah! Don't come to this set! These immortals you said are so powerful, why don't you see them helping us from the suffering? When there is a catastrophe, why don't they bless us?" The bald man was indignant: "I heard when I was in the Cao Gang that it was because of these people who had cultivated mana that they fought back and forth decades ago, and this attracted retribution. It's good that they can fly to the sky and hide in the corners of the world, leaving us ordinary people to suffer from disasters, but to eliminate disasters for them. ”

"Don't say that, this brother, there are gods and spirits in his head, don't you speak too badly?" others persuaded one after another.

"Hey, what's wrong with me saying this? Is it possible that you won't let me say it?" When the bald man heard this, he became even more angry, and raised his shout and scolded: "They cultivators are so capable, if they don't come to help the suffering, I can't scold them for a few words to dissipate their anger? With this ability, it is better to chop Lao Tzu to death with a thunderbolt, so that it seems that they have a spirit and a response!"

After the wild words, there was a silence for a while, and naturally there was no cultivator to respond to him, and the other laborers only thought that the bald man was talking crazy, and they didn't have the energy to bother with him.

"This brother, what is the disaster in your hometown?" After everyone around them finished talking about their situation, someone asked Xianyu, who had been silent.

"I ......" Xianyu's mind was still in the bald man's scolding, so he had to respond: "My family lives by the sea, and I was separated from the elders of the family before I came here." ”

"Oh, I hope you can find someone back home soon. When everyone heard this, they sighed again.

At this time, there was a commotion among the surrounding laborers, including the crisp sound of the whipping of horses, and a hoarse voice shouting and scolding, and everyone gathered around to see what was going on, and Xianyu was like a fish shuttling through the crowd, coming to the front without hindrance.

I saw a man carrying a horsewhip and beating a laborer at his feet repeatedly, shouting and scolding: "Old bastard, if you don't die and provoke Uncle Ben's head, are you tired of it?"

"What's going on? How can you beat people casually?"

"This old man ate slowly, and just when the foreman came to inspect, the two collided together, and half a bowl of soup was spilled directly on the foreman. ”

"This foreman is too ruthless, if it's dirty, it's not over, why are you beating people?"

"Be quiet! The foreman here can decide what mine we go to tomorrow, whether to eat gnocchi or stewed vermicelli, it's up to him! Let him vent and vent, don't worry about the big guys, if the foreman is annoyed, we won't have any good fruit to eat!"

Just as the laborers were whispering, a figure stepped straight out, reached out and directly clasped the foreman's right hand to pull off the whip, and the foreman raised his head with a hideous face, and the atmosphere of the scene suddenly froze, and no one dared to speak.

The first to break the silence was the laborer who advised everyone to meddle in their affairs: "Little brother, don't get excited! Hurry up and start work and say two words to admit your mistakes! Don't be angry!"

However, both the foreman and the little brother were silent, and fell into an even more eerie dead silence. This little brother is naturally Xianyu, and the foreman who wielded the whip is Ah Jia, who was subdued by Xianyu.

"Yes, you see I didn't pee my pants. Xianyu didn't need to open his mouth, and his voice sounded directly in Ah Jia's ears: "Maybe you think a dagger is not enough...... Well, I've heard from a senior doctor that one way to straighten a broken bone is to insert a steel bar into the body. But I think it's quite troublesome to do this, so it's better to melt dozens of steel bars into your body like before, and see if you can correct your crooked spirit?"

The moment Ah Jia recognized Xianyu, his heart first jumped loudly, and then his whole body was cold, and he couldn't say half a word with his teeth clenched, when he heard Xianyu's transmission, his eyes kept rolling up, if it weren't for Xianyu using mana to restrain his body, blood and bones, he would have collapsed to the ground by now.

Xianyu's five fingers were clasped, and a burst of electricity stimulated Ah Jia's whole body, sobering him up, and at the same time transmitting the voice: "Your life is still of some use, but don't get carried away, I sincerely advise you." Now get out of here, find a secluded place to stay by yourself, and I will come to you. ”
