Chapter 30

Grain grabbing

After everyone got up, Su Ying took out the dry food from the bag and distributed it to them. The other prisoners had nothing to eat and could only look at them helplessly.

Faced with pairs of eager eyes, Mother Zhao and the others were a little restless, and they ate the dry food in just a few mouthfuls.

Su Ying took a sip of water, stood up and sat down next to Xiao Jin, "We can't be trapped here forever. Is there anything you can do?"

Xiao Jin frowned, "The only way to leave here is to cross the river."

"Is there no other way? Not even a detour?"

Xiao Jin shook his head, picked up a branch and drew a circle on the ground, "This is where we are." Then he drew a long line in front of the circle, "This is Wujiang River." On the opposite side of the line, he again

He drew a circle and said, "This is the Zhuzhou City we are going to."

A Wujiang River completely isolated the two cities, and except for the ferry, they could not cross at all.

"Is there no way to get a boat?"

Xiao Jin tapped his branch on the ground, his voice a little deep, "The ships will return to the dock only after the flood recedes." But no one knows when the flood will recede, so they have to rely on their own ability to survive.

After this period of time.

At night, when it was time to distribute dry food, there was no movement from the officials.

One prisoner couldn't help but said, "Sir, it's almost time. Isn't it time to distribute food to everyone? It's only one meal a day, but now everyone is very hungry."

"Yes, sir, it's cold and hungry, and we can hardly stand it anymore."

The prisoners in the lobby all focused their attention on the official.

Li Da grabbed the whip in his hand and swung it in the air a few times, "No need to worry. If you haven't moved a step all day and still want to eat, just leave it to me. If you don't want to waste your energy, give it to me."

Just shut up and I will feed you when it is time to eat."

The prisoners were a little frightened when they saw the vigorous whip, and for the time being they did not dare to say anything anymore.

Li Da's face was ugly, and he didn't have much rations. They didn't know how many days they would have to stay here, so it would be better if they could save a little.

"Go to Yunshui City and ask if you can meet with the government officials and ask them to be accommodating." Otherwise, he won't be able to deal with the Ministry of Punishment. He can't have hundreds of people die before they arrive in Zhuzhou.

Absolutely.

"Yes, I'll ask you later."

Without food or drink, some prisoners seemed very agitated.

When Su Ying took out the dry food from the bag and distributed it to Xiao Jin and the others, she deliberately made the fire in front of her smaller to avoid being stared at by too many people.

Bai Shuang and the others also knew it very well. They ate very quickly and didn't even dare to make a sound.

As the night progressed, the prisoners in a room fell asleep due to hunger and cold.

At this time, outside the ruined temple, a group of strong men had quietly surrounded the front hall.

The two officials guarding the door were drowsy and did not notice the danger approaching.

Suddenly, a ray of silver light flashed in front of his eyes, and the official was startled. As soon as he opened his eyes, a column of blood burst out from his neck. He didn't even see the other person's appearance clearly, and he lost his breath.

After dealing with the two officials, several big men lurked under the window and threw the lit smoke in.

Su Ying, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly opened her eyes when she heard the noise. She immediately looked at the children and found that Xiao Jin had woken up at some point and had covered her mouth and nose with a cloth.

Xiao Jin reached out and picked up the two children, looked at Su Ying and said, "It's Mi Yan."

Su Ying frowned and quickly asked Jiang Yang to wake up Zhao's mother and the others. Then she suddenly stood up and shouted: "Someone is coming to steal dry food."

The officers woke up suddenly. They didn't dare to sleep soundly in the first place, so they jumped up immediately when they heard the sound.

The yeller who was guarding the door heard the movement and knew that he had been exposed. He shouted violently, "Come in!"

The door of the ruined temple was suddenly knocked open, and dozens of people rushed in. They held torches and immediately searched for the dry food.

The officials knew clearly what the purpose of these people was, and immediately stepped forward to protect the rations.

"Everyone who wants to run away can do it now. We will kill these officials. Even if we don't go to Beihuang from now on, no one will know who you are." Someone among the big men shouted.

As soon as these words came out, many prisoners had some thoughts. If they could stay in the country, they all wanted to go to the Northern Wasteland.

Seeing that the prisoner had been persuaded, Li Da said coldly, "Can't you see what's going on outside now? You still want to run away, but I'm afraid I'll starve to death before I get out!"

"Stop talking nonsense and take action!" The big man went towards the official and killed him without saying a word.

The prisoners were all watching, but no one came forward to help.

The total number of these official servants was only twenty or thirty, which was twice as many as those big men, and they were soon at a disadvantage.

Li Da panicked as he looked at his colleagues who were gradually falling. He turned around and looked for Su Ying. Only this female evil goddess could save them now.

"Su Ying, Su Ying, please help, please help, as long as you help us, even if I, Li Da, owe you a huge favor, many of these prisoners are heinous beasts. If we really let them run away like this,

There will only be more people persecuted."

Su Ying actually did not intend to stand by and watch. What she cared about was not the benevolence and morality, but that if the official food was robbed, they would become targets in the eyes of these people, and the danger they would face would only be more severe.

"Jiang Yang, you stay here and guard."

Jiang Yang nodded.

Su Ying picked up a fire stick from the ground and rushed out, shouting as she ran, "The official is right. We follow them honestly and we can still eat one bite a day. If you want to flee now, any of you will

Those who dare to guarantee that they have the ability to find food, instead of running out and starving to death in two days, might as well just follow them honestly."

The prisoners were a little hesitant when they heard what Su Ying said. Now there is a flood outside Yunshui City, and the city gates are closed. Ordinary victims cannot enter the city. It is even more difficult for criminals like them. They have no food or water.

Yes, isn’t it just waiting to die?

With this thought, several men stood up and joined the battle.

Those big men glared at Su Ying fiercely, but they were very smart and knew not to let the fight break out, otherwise they would not be able to fight back if the prisoners all rose up to fight back, so they all concentrated their firepower and headed towards the dry food area.

Soon, the big man got the dry food, turned around and ran out.

Su Ying wanted to chase him, but was blocked by the big man behind him.

"You bitch, if you want to ruin my good deeds, I'll send you to hell first." The big man fiercely raised the big knife in his hand and slashed at Su Ying's face.

Su Yingfeng narrowed her eyes, leaned down to dodge, then raised her foot and kicked the big man's wrist. Then she stood up, held the big man's hand and turned it, and the big knife stabbed straight into his chest.
