After Rong Chuan finished speaking, he regretted it again. In these days, not to mention fish, grass roots and tree barks can be eaten.

He smiled, took a tiger bone, picked up a sharp stone chip, and scraped the meat on it.

Ling Yue handed him the dagger in her hand, "Use this."

Rong Chuan took it and took a look. He saw that the dagger was small and delicate, thin and light, but very sharp and strong.

nice one!

Ling Yue saw his eyes light up and smiled: "I gave it to you!"

Rong Chuan's face turned red, "No, such a good dagger, you can use it just right, I don't want it."

Ling Yue said: "It's okay, I still have it! You keep it for self-defense."

Rong Chuan said: "Then I will accept it, thank you!"

This dagger looked like it was not an ordinary thing. It might have been stolen by a mob and then fell into the hands of the fourth uncle. He could just give it back to her when they parted.

Everyone was busy working and didn't pay attention to the straw basket in the stream.

When he was done, Shangguan Ruoli took the grass basket back. There were more than a dozen fish of various sizes in the basket.

So, not only did we have tiger meat to eat in the evening, but we also had fish soup to drink.

There was food and drink, and everyone felt that the days of escaping from the famine were very happy, which was better than the time in their hometown where they had only one meal and no next meal.

Dongming Ziyu turned his escape trip in the mountains into wilderness training and wilderness survival education. Young men, especially half-grown men and boys, all recognized Dongming Ziyu as their boss and learned a lot.

.

Although Rong Chuan was still on crutches, his legs could no longer work and he could move easily. He followed behind and became Dongming Ziyu's little fanboy.

Climbing over mountains, wading through water, facing the wind, braving the rain, digging wild vegetables, picking wild fruits, hunting prey, fighting wild beasts...

In this way, enjoying the joy of hardship, it took about twenty days to finally get out of the rolling mountains.

Standing on the mountain and looking down, a city comes into view.

The city wall is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the towers tower into the clouds. People can feel the majestic momentum from a distance.

Ling Yue sighed: "This stone city is so spectacular!"

Others were more down-to-earth: "Wow! So tall and big!"

"Mom, this is my first time seeing such a big city and such a high wall."

"Look at that city wall, it's so tall and strong!"

The city wall, which was twenty meters high, was something these people had never seen before.

Rong Chuan said: "This is Youcheng, and it already belongs to King Chen's fiefdom. If you want to continue south by taking the official road, you have to pass through Youcheng, otherwise you have to continue climbing over the mountains."

Dong Chunlei saw the fields in the distance and said: "There are fields here. If we want to collect the victims, let's stay here."

Mr. Dong also said: "There are fields in front and mountains behind. If the world is not peaceful, we will run to the mountains."

The six kings won't give up until their heads are broken, and they may come here. Thinking about the vast plains in the distance from my hometown, I feel scared and have nowhere to hide.

Everyone is really tired from walking, and now we are even worse off than beggars. Walking in the mountains and forests, our clothes are full of cuts and patches.

The main reason was that it was cold now, and all the clothes they wore were shivering from the cold, especially the straw sandals on their feet, which were freezing cold.

Dongming Ziyu said: "Let's go down and find out whether King Chen will take in the victims and how they will be resettled."

Everyone agreed and continued down the mountain. There were relaxed smiles on their faces. It was finally the end and it was time to settle down!

As I got closer, I found that there were many people queuing up outside the city gate. There were several teams: some were taking pulses, some were giving porridge, some were queuing up to enter the city, and some were being taken away by officers and soldiers.

When they saw the presence of officers and soldiers, many people became intimidated and did not dare to come forward to inquire.

It was Duanmu Ye who took action, found a kind-faced officer and soldier, stuffed a few coins into his mouth, and inquired about the situation.

The officers and soldiers put the copper plates into their sleeves without leaving any trace, and said in a good temper: "Our Prince Chen's house is kind-hearted and takes in the victims. However, not all victims are taken in.

First go and check your pulse. Those who are not sick can go get a bowl of porridge to satisfy their hunger, and then queue up to enter the city. Those who have a good reputation can be divided into villages to become ordinary villagers. Those who have household registration documents can be made military households. Those without household registration can be regarded as ordinary people.

Refugees, do tattoos and work as coolies."

Dongming Ziyu's heart suddenly sank. This means that the victims of the disaster will be degraded when they come here.

They have household registrations and want to be military households. Military households have been soldiers for generations, and their social status is low. They are better than slaves and cannot take part in scientific examinations. They usually farm and work for the army. When there is a war, the men have to go to school.

, died in vain, not even a pension.

The world is not at peace now, and the possibility of military households going to the battlefield is extremely high.

Then why did they come all the way here? Why would they get raped in their hometown?

Dongming Ziyu took out a few more coins and gave them to him, and asked: "Master, please give me some advice. Is there any room for improvement?"

The officer and soldier saw that he was so polite and said: "You can use it as appropriate, you know? It's just money. As for how much, it depends on the mood of the superior!"

Dongming Ziyu frowned and asked: "Well, we have a farmer's household registration and want to continue to be a farmer. How much money will it cost?"

The officer and soldier said: "It's only twenty taels per person."

He looked up and down Dongming Ziyu's clothes, and knowing that he was very poor, he said: "If you are like this, don't even think about it. Just become a military household honestly."

"Thanks for the advice." Dongming Ziyu thanked him and returned to his team.

Mrs. Qian saw his solemn expression and asked, "How is it? How is it?"

Under everyone's expectant eyes, Dongming Ziyu told what he had learned and explained what the military household was for.

When many people heard this, they were shocked at first, and then squatted on the ground and held their heads.

One woman sat down on the ground and started crying, desperate and aggrieved.

They went through all kinds of hardships and finally got here and saw hope. Unexpectedly, this was the result! If they wanted to be soldiers, why would they come here?!

Dongming Ziyu pulled Shangguan Ruoli to one side and asked in a deep voice: "What should we do? Military households are not allowed."

Shangguan Ruoli also had a headache, "We have money in our space, but we can't just buy it for our family of four. Not counting Da Yun and Xiao Yun's family, our family alone has nineteen people. How can we explain such a large amount of money?"

They don't have the banknotes here, so they can only use cash, four hundred taels of silver, which is a big bag. There were many people on the road when they searched the bodies of the mob, and everyone knows how much property was found.

Besides, all the money recovered from the corpses of the mob was given to Dong Chunlei for public use. Now that they suddenly took out such a large sum of money, people thought it was hidden privately. How do they judge their character?

Dongming Ziyu said: "How about going to the mountains first! You can always survive."

Shangguan Ruoli frowned and said, "This is not a long-term solution."

Along the way, if it weren't for the food in their space, these people wouldn't be able to find anything to eat at all.

Are she and Dongming Ziyu allowed to work hard in space to feed so many people? Why?
