Chapter 121: A wave of refugees leads to riots
Watch the fastest update
Zibaifeng tried hard to nourish the demon craft, and the big bluestone tried hard to nourish the earth veins. With the help of water veins, the spiritual energy that enveloped Xiayan Village expanded outward, which was enough to cover the official road and many nearby places. On this day, Zibaifeng still used porcelain pieces to patrol his territory, but saw a large wave of ragged refugees appear next to the official road.
The war in the south has produced many refugees fleeing famines. These refugees fled far away from the war. When they started to escape, they were still a group of harmless little sheep, but when they arrived at the territory of Mengcheng for a long distance, they had turned into a group of hungry wolves with red eyes!
In fact, robbers had already appeared before. The convoys that transported grain from Xiayan Village to other villages had encountered attacks from robbers, but the villagers had already prepared to repel the small group of robbers.
This is not an individual phenomenon. The documents issued by the Duke to various places indicate that you must be careful of refugees, but Zi Baifeng did not expect it to be so fast. I remember that they had wandered for two years before they escaped to Xiayan Village. The efficiency was really too low compared to these people.
When Zi Baifeng was entangled with a group of Ding Zhuang and led Liu Lieli to the vicinity of the official road, he saw these people besieging a carriage. On the carriage, the young woman was crying while holding a young girl. Three or four strong men were desperately defending against the enemy's attack. Although they were holding weapons, they were unable to defeat four hands with two fists, and their bodies were covered in blood and were almost irresistible.
As soon as Zi Baifeng was about to give an order, he heard a shout not far behind him, and a small group of soldiers rushed towards Luoqianshan.
Luo Qianshan, who rushed in the front, raised his sword and chopped down one person to the ground with one knife. The soldiers behind him were like tigers entering the flock of sheep. In the whistling wind, blood splattered everywhere. Several unlucky refugees were instantly chopped down to the ground. Others exclaimed in anger and wanted to escape everywhere. Luo Qianshan stopped moving forward and waved his hand. The soldiers ran away one by one. When they met those who ran far away, they bent their bows and arrows and shot them out.
"Qianshan!" Zi Baifeng shouted. Luo Qianshan seemed to know what Zi Baifeng was thinking, but he did not turn around. He shook his head directly, bent his bow and arrow, shot several times in succession, and shouted: "Any escapee, kill him, don't worry!"
Seeing that these people were coming, the refugees immediately fell to their knees on the side of the road, escorted back by the soldiers, and stringed them into a string with ropes.
Zi Baifeng patted the snow, and walked to the war horse that fell from thousands of mountains.
On one side is a tall horse, on the other side is a white and black donkey, one is a general's mighty and the other is a student of Qingjin. The two good friends looked at each other for a few seconds, and Luo Qianshan said, "Bai Feng, you saw it just now. These people can do anything. They are not worthy of pity."
Zi Baifeng shook his head and said, "Isn't it what you told me? No matter what the reason is, people cannot do evil. Even under the difficult conditions, some people will not do evil."
Zi Baifeng shook his head. He found that he was really standing and talking without any pain in his back.
The reason why people do not do evil is because they are not forced to do anything, and he and Zijian at the beginning...
They snatched other people's food and stole other people's things. They went through a lot of hardships and did countless evils before they survived.
And now these people are just like this.
Looking back now, how many times did you face a life-and-death crisis but eventually survive?
And that is simply because they are lucky? Or is it because the long-term workers who chased them while stealing chickens slowed down? Or is it because they hid quietly under the gate to avoid the cold while the gatekeeper pretended not to see it? Or is it because the soldiers who were ordered to drive them lifted their steel knives up half a foot?
"We are also doing evil." Zibaifeng said, "We know that the reason why they are displaced is because of war, but we still have to build weapons and sell them to the south..."
Luo Qianshan sighed and said, "Some words, you said nothing wrong."
"What do you mean?" Zi Baifeng was stunned. Now isn't the time to praise him.
"Smart people really like to be stubborn." Luo Qianshan stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, saying, "Everyone is born with his own position. Mengcheng is ours. Why do we need others to destroy it?"
After saying the words he thought he was very handsome, Luo Qianshan turned to see Zi Baifeng, and saw this guy holding his face with his hands forty-five degrees to look at the sky. Where did he hear his words? He was there to think about when he said this.
Luo Qianshan shook his head, it was really useless to worry about this guy.
The tall horse that was falling from Qianshan seemed to be very interested in Taxue. He stretched out his neck to say hello to Taxue, but who knew that he was kicked by Taxue and sniffled helplessly.
"War of war will continue if you sell them or not. Your people are almost starving to death, and there is still some idleness to care about others." Luo Qianshan shook the reins of the horse, turned his head, and said, "Sometimes, selling weapons to them can end the war faster. The shorter the war, the better."
The arms dealers who made money in war seemed to have this tone. Zi Baifeng was speechless: "How can I guarantee that I sold it to the right person?"
"I am an expert in this regard." Luo Qianshan whistled and greeted his subordinate soldiers, "You believe me."
Zi Baifeng patted his shoulder and led everyone to drag the refugees to leave.
What will happen to these people? Will they be deported and escorted for labor? They are imprisoned in prison? Zi Baifeng didn't know, and he didn't want to know. He just watched these people covered in blood, limping, and dragging them to the distance.
This was just the first wave. Even if I fell into the mountains and thought about Zibaifeng, I always leaned my troops towards Zibaifeng, but I could only guard the official road. More refugees rushed into the territory of Jiuyan Township from small roads, from mountains, from rivers, and from the woods.
Jiuyan Township, which was already overwhelmed, was in danger at this time. The daily reports of refugees have already made Zi Baifeng anxious.
"Why are there wars in the south?" Zi Baifeng asked, who grabbed the big crane that was lying in his nest and hatching eggs.
He remembered that the big crane came from the south.
"You ask me, who will I ask?" Dahe Hongyu rolled his eyes. He was just concerned about escaping and killing. How could he have time to care about others? And what does the war on earth have to do with him, a monster?
"What's the point of asking for you? Kill and eat meat!" Zi Baifeng was immediately angry. The big crane ate and slept all day long. In the name of hatching eggs, he slept there. Except for the two hens who came to cause trouble for him, he was too lazy to move the place. He really didn't know how this monster survived to this day.
Hongyu was also immune to Zi Baifeng's threat. He discovered that this guy was just a knife-like mouth and a stingy heart. He was soft but not hard. As long as he didn't touch this guy's bottom line, it was easy to say. He was quite happy to make jokes and fight with him on weekdays.
This kind of peaceful life is really great. You don’t have to be chased, run away, or worry. Apart from the idea that a group of difficult little ghosts often hit him, you are simply living in heaven.
Moreover, there are three crane eggs that can be hatched. When these three crane eggs are hatched, he will carefully teach these three white cranes to make some contributions to his ethnic group... It is so beautiful to think about this day.
The sun was good that day. Hongyu moved his eggs to the sun, intending to dry them, absorb more heat, put the crane eggs on the top of the big bluestone, then stretched, intending to catch two fish and play the teeth.
Zi Baifeng's rules are not allowed to hunt near bluestone, and Hongyu dared not blatantly violate Zi Baifeng's ban. He transformed himself into a big crane and flew into the mountain. Compared with the fish outside the mountain, although the fish in the mountain are much smaller, they are even more chewy.
After eating a little, he picked up a few lively fish and planned to keep them for midnight snacks. Hongyu was still proud. Who knew that just after he flew to the big bluestone, he heard a rattle of croaker and he suddenly felt something was wrong!
At some point, two hens who were still in dispersed secretly sneaked in and were screaming excitedly on the bluestone. Hongyu looked closely and saw that beside the black and white flower hens, there were three shameful little cranes screaming. The two hens were feeding them with bugs in their mouths!
It's finished!
Hongyu only felt that even if he was skinned and cramped, he was not so miserable. As a crane, he knew the habits of cranes very well.
Seal with you!
The hatched crane will regard the creatures they see first as their mother, and these two hens...
Hongyu let out a shrill cry of cranes, opened his huge beak and pecked at the two hens. Who knew that the two hens were not afraid at all, and actually protected the three little cranes with their bodies and pecked at him.
The three little cranes also stretched their necks and planned to help their mothers. Hongyu was in a hurry. The three little cranes were not as big as one of his toes, and could flap their wings to run away with a flap of wings.
He suddenly shrank his head and was pecked by two hens and screamed loudly.
When Zi Baifeng came out of the room, he saw this scene.
"Brother! Brother! Come on, the little crane has hatched!" Xiao Shitou also came over and saw three ugly little cranes, reaching out to hug them. Who knew that the chicken crane that had been fighting just now turned its guns together and pecked at Xiao Shitou. Xiao Shitou shouted, hugged his head and hid behind Zi Baifeng.
Fortunately, the two hens were still a little rational. They did not attack Zi Baifeng, but instead shouted around him.
"I know, I know..." Zi Baifeng was speechless and comforted them, "Silence first, and say something well!"
"How can we say it well? That's our Dahe clan, how can we be children for two hens!" Hongyu transformed himself into an adult, grabbed Zi Baifeng's shoulder and shook desperately.
