400: Ten thousand misfortunes (ten)(1/2)
On the city wall, tall and strong soldiers were knocking and fighting, working hard. When you get close, you can even hear a few laughs and chats. The content roughly talks about their respective construction progress, what to eat for the next meal, and what style should the eaves...
"...Hahahaha, do you see if my craftsmanship has improved? Look at the wood cut, which is smoother and smoother than my brain cut on people on the battlefield... Where is my slut?"
"Whoever sees my slut?"
The companion said, "You are being pressed by your ass!"
After the words came to amazement.
In addition to this harmonious scene, from time to time, you can see someone among them carrying two or three feet long wood and jumping up from the base of the city wall to jump up to the city tower. A light seemed to flash at his feet, and he looked at the thief's martial arts spirit like a brave warrior.
Dozens or hundreds of people built there and put together a simple prototype of the burned city tower.
The flags on the city walls have also been changed to unfamiliar "sink".
The city gate that had been ruined before was pressed again, half-closed and half-closed. A group of refugees did not dare to go forward, so they found a place to hide and hide. The legs were numb. Only then did several common people walk out of the city with shoulder poles. The bamboo baskets at both ends were loaded with heavy objects, pressing the two ends of the shoulder poles to bend.
At this time, another whistle sounded from the city wall.
The soldiers who were working stopped their work one by one, gathered together with several common people one after another, lined up in an orderly manner, received the steaming dry food and warm soup one by one, and found a place to stand, squat or sit and eat.
The aroma of food drifted into the tip of their noses along the air.
Gulugulu—
The Wudian Temple sang an empty city plan.
The saliva was everywhere in the mouth, and the stomach began to feel colic. As a result, someone plucked up the courage to walk out of his hiding place. As a result, the soldiers did not look at them, did not drive them away or scold them until they got closer-
"What to do?"
A man suddenly emerged from behind.
The thunder-like sound scared the man trembled.
He wanted to bend over to escape with his head in his hands, but he was caught in the collar: "Sneaky, but a spy?"
"What are Shousheng trying to scare him?" Just as the common people shouted in their hearts, another person came over.
This person is also unruly. He probably because he is too hot to work. He took off his sleeve and stuffed it into his waist, revealing half of his arms.
"Hey, I've been paying attention to him for a long time."
The man named "Shousheng" put the person down.
"...Look at his appearance, either the refugee who has been wandering here or the commoner of Ru Yao... If you scare people out of trouble, be careful that Mr. Shen will trouble you." Zhao Feng wiped his sweat, gave a pancake into his mouth, and smiled.
As soon as he heard the word "Shen Jun", the man's attitude changed 180 degrees, and his smile was a little cautious.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."
The arrested commoner: "..."
Although Zhao Feng and his two were elegantly speaking, they were not like locals, but just because they were not harsh to themselves, the common people found some rationality. He looked at the two of them carefully.
"Where did these two soldiers... come from?"
Lu Jue said: "Come from He Yin."
The common people don’t know where He Yin is.
I want to ask clearly but I am afraid that it will anger the two of them.
Seeing his embarrassed and pitiful appearance, Lu Jue also knew what he wanted to ask for, so he took the initiative to say: "I am under the tent of the He Yin County Governor Chen County, and follow my lord to be transferred to Longwu County under the order of the king."
As soon as he said this, the common people understood.
Coincidentally, the new county magistrate is here.
Although he was not optimistic about the outcome of the new county magistrate, he was surrounded by two tall and strong men on the left and right, and dozens of people were around, so the common people still felt a little more secure in their hearts and secretly hoped to live a few days of stable life.
Seeing that his eyes were staring at the cake in his hand with longing, Lu Jue asked immediately.
"Are you a person from Ru Yao? Live in this city?"
The common people seemed to be touched by the sadness and nodded in a dark look: "If you are Hui Bing, I will live in the west of the city."
However, there was already ruins.
The group of horse bandits rushed into the city, and the place was the first to be hit. All the property he had managed for many years was gone, and only the old and young people in the family were left. His wife and a pair of children were all dead!
Just a few days ago, my wife also died of illness.
The children hid in the ruins of the city with the food saved from their teeth by the couple, and they didn't know if they had starved to death.
Thinking of this, the common people are even more sad!
"Look at you are not old, do you want to stay and work? Two pancakes are used as wages for half a day..." Lu Jue said this, paused and added, "You can pay you half a day first."
The common people thought they had heard it wrong.
It was not until Lu Jue called someone and divided his two cakes that he woke up like a dream. He couldn't wait to snatch the cakes, swallowed them up, and reincarnated as if they were hungry ghosts. If Lu Jue had not handed him a bowl of warm soup, the cakes would have choked him to death in his throat.
Looking at the common people's red eyes hidden behind the mist, and sighed softly, Lu Jue followed and said, "The construction site is in urgent need of people. If you know someone next to you, you can call them to come and work together, with the same wages, regardless of gender."
"Yes, yes, I know a lot of people."
The common people only ate one, and the other hid in their arms, with a plan in their hearts - perhaps the two children had not starved to death, so the pancake could be eaten separately. When they thought of the child's ecstatic eyes, they felt that they had strength all over their bodies.
Other refugees also saw this scene, and with the shouting of their accomplices, they all plucked up their courage to come out and advance half a day's "wage" from Lu Jue in advance.
When the cake with the aroma of food is sent into the mouth, the tears that endured make the tip of the nose sour and the eyes turn red.
Lu Jue was also sighing when he looked at this scene.
At this time, the common people in Longwu were much more difficult than the common people in Heyin that day, but Lu Jue was more grateful that they were stronger than themselves back then, regardless of their strength or financial resources. Otherwise, when they looked at this scene, they would only have the word "powerlessness" in their hearts.
These common people even struggled to walk, let alone do heavy work. Lu Jue only arranged for them to do some relaxing work, such as handing over something and cleaning up the small gravel under the city wall.
Blinking, twilight is in full swing.
The common people dragged their tired bodies and carried the cakes in their arms with his body temperature back to the west of the city. Only then did they realize that most of the ruins along the road were cleaned up and the foundation was re-divided, which was very different from what he remembered. Soon, he returned to his old house.
To be precise, it is the ruins of the old house.
The hearts of the common people were mostly cold.
There are no traces of children here.
He was confused and panicked, and he called out to the child's nickname loudly. As he shouted, strong grief and grievance surged into his heart. He fell to the ground, burst into tears, and kept calling out "My baby" from his mouth, bursting with tears.
I cried and my throat was hoarse, so someone came over.
"What are you crying?"
The common people sat on the ground and patted their thighs.
Wow, "My baby..."
The man pointed in a direction.
"Don't cry first, go to that shelter first to see if your baby is there."
Where can the common people have the strength to stand up?
In the end, I was held by this kind-hearted person and limped to the so-called "shelp house". I saw a clean little face. Who else could it be if it weren't his daughter?
Suddenly experiencing great sorrow and joy, he fainted, and after a while he took that breath, he hugged the two children and cried bitterly.
It was only from the mouth of the two children that they were rescued when they were about to starve to death and woke up in the "shelp".
And this "shelt" was built by the new county magistrate.
Specializes in the resettlement of homeless commoners.
After the city’s buildings are built, arrange them before going.
When the common people heard this, they bowed to the direction of the official office and thanked Shen Tang for protecting his only two relatives.
The common people around him did not stop him, because that was a life-saving grace, and he could bear all the etiquette.
But those who are as lucky as him are, after all, are a minority. More people still lost almost all their blood relatives in that catastrophe. They survived by chance, starved to death, freeze to death, and died of illness...
at the same time--
Yonggu Pass.
The atmosphere inside the pass was heavy, and the clothes on the soldiers were almost useless to keep the cold. They were cold and hard, and they seemed to be covered with ice. Even so, they had to force themselves to patrol the spirit and dare not slackew on the slightest...
Only when you are on a shift turn can you breathe a sigh of relief.
Hide in the broken military tent.
The tent is also cold, but at least it's a little better than outside.
A group of comrades gathered together, and they were also very enthusiastic.
At this time, someone's stomach was ringing.
【Gulugulu】
The soldiers were frowning.
In the past month, I have received less and less food, and the corn porridge has become thinner and the military pay is not provided in time. Even clothes for cold protection are difficult to deliver. Some brothers can't stand it and sneak away, and the rest are still enduring.
To be continued...
