"Where we live is a village where every household is extinct. If one or two of the family members can escape, they are considered lucky."
"We followed the villagers all the way to beg for food. Later, there were more and more people begging for food. No one had so much food to save us, so everyone dug grass roots and gnawed tree bark. Look at my baby, my belly is so big, just eating Guanyin
The swelling is so severe that I scream in pain every night, but there is nothing I can do."
"Walking here, I don't know how many people fell on the roadside. Some were stronger and stronger, and they went to rob, steal, or simply went up the mountain to become bandits. There were also some women who, as long as they were given a mouthful of food, could do it on the roadside.
I took off my clothes and sent some female dolls to rich families as maids. They are all treasures in the hands of their parents, but there is nothing I can do about it, this world is too difficult."
As the old man spoke, he burst into tears.
There was not much rhetoric in these words, and even the order was a bit confusing. But it was precisely because of the authenticity of what the old man thought of and said that people were touched.
Zhao Rui's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he murmured: "It turns out that the people outside are already so sad."
At this time, Jin Yiwei came over with some steamed buns and sesame seed cakes. Li Chen took them and handed them to the old man and the children.
The old man thanked him profusely and took the child to his knees.
"Big boy, kowtow to your benefactor."
Li Chen was about to help him up, but the child hit his forehead hard on the ground.
"Thank you, great benefactor!"
Li Chen's hand froze in mid-air, and finally touched the child's greasy and smelly head, and said, "Find a safe place with grandpa to have a good meal."
Watching the grandfather and grandson leave, Li Chen waved to the Jin Yiwei to follow the grandfather and grandson. Otherwise, with their physiques and looking at the victims with red eyes and drooling around them, as long as Li Chen walked away with his front foot, the two grandfathers and grandson would be behind.
Sun will be in trouble.
After leaving the official road, Li Chen led Zhao Rui towards the southern suburbs.
As we get further and further away from the capital, there are more and more victims on the roadside.
Under the heavy snow, those victims who were barely clothed and still had some strength found a place that could barely block the snow, but most of them were just lying on the roadside, like a pile of corpses in the white snow.
Like a mountain, it’s shocking.
There were occasional groans on the roadside, proving that they were not dead yet.
But more importantly, seeing Li Chen and Zhao Rui dressed so well, it was obvious at first glance that the victims were rich people struggling to crawl over and want to beg.
Zhao Rui had never seen such a scene before, and was so frightened that she trembled.
In the end, Li Chen called in the Jinyi guards who were secretly protecting him, and stood on both sides to prevent victims from intruding, and he was able to pass through.
Along the way, Li Chen said nothing and didn't say anything to Zhao Rui.
It wasn't until the two of them walked ten or twenty miles away from the southern suburbs that the number of victims around them suddenly decreased without warning. Then the two of them saw dozens of soldiers in armor digging holes, with hundreds of corpses placed next to them.
After the soldiers dug the pit, the two of them lifted a corpse and threw it directly into the pit. The pit was already covered with corpses.
"ah!"
Zhao Rui was so frightened when she saw this kind of scene for the first time.
Li Chen was very calm.
"See?"
"These people died a few hours ago, at the hands of Zhao Jianye, because these victims, their eyes red and dizzy from hunger, attacked the military camp of Yulin Weinan Camp."
