Chapter 75 The Refugees Outside Wu County Are in Disturbance
Chapter 75 The refugees outside Wu County are in turmoil
After everyone discussed the matter, they sat down and boiled water for cooking.
By the time we set off again, it was already an hour later.
They walked a few hundred meters on the path and then reached the main road. There were many pedestrians walking on the road.
After nearly six months, the Jiang family and his party have consumed a lot of the food they brought out, so they won't be so conspicuous.
But compared to other people fleeing on the road, it's still much better.
When those people who were on their way saw them, they only looked at them twice and then looked away and continued on their way.
The Jiang family observed it for a while and then followed behind.
During the lunch break on the second day, a man came up to talk to me.
The man asked: "Brothers, you are also from Wu County, right?"
As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit someone with a smiling face. Jiang Yuchao saw him talking to him and replied: "Yes, he came from Wu County. Where did this brother come from?"
The man sat down next to Jiang Yuchao very familiarly. He sighed softly and said, "Isn't that right? If Wu County hadn't allowed us to enter, we wouldn't have escaped here."
Jiang Yuchao nodded in agreement.
The man added: "But it's a good thing we ran fast, otherwise when chaos broke out outside Wu County, our lives might have been involved."
Everyone else sitting nearby and listening were shocked. Mrs. Jiang was even more surprised and said, "What? There is unrest among the refugees outside Wu County?"
When the men saw them, they all looked at themselves in surprise, no less surprised than they were.
"Didn't you just come from Wu County?"
Jiang Yuchao explained: "Ah, it's good that we came from Wu County, but when we set off, there were no riots outside the city."
Seeing that everyone seemed to be extremely interested in what was going on in Wu County, he asked.
"I wonder if this brother can tell me about the situation over there?"
The man looked at the interested expressions of Jiang Yuchao and the people beside him, then at the food they brought, and his eyes rolled around twice.
Pretending to be weak, he leaned against a tree behind him and said, "It's not that I don't want to talk. It's just that my mouth is dry after driving for days, and I don't have the extra energy to speak."
The corners of the mouths of the Jiang family twitched. He was in high spirits just now, but they didn't notice that his mouth was dry.
Ming Yuanqing asked innocently: "But uncle, you didn't look thirsty at all when you spoke just now."
The man was said to be a little embarrassed, but only a little.
He secretly raised one eyelid and looked towards the Jiang family, and pretended to cough twice.
"Hey, my throat is starting to smoke. I wasn't very tired just now. I must have said so many words before it became like this."
After saying that, he raised his eyes again to see the reactions of the Jiang family and his group, and saw that they just looked at him but didn't look angry.
He continued to remind: "I don't have much water or food with me, otherwise I will definitely tell you what happened outside Wu County."
"Oh, that was really thrilling. Tsk, tsk, tsk~ It's a pity that you didn't see it."
Jiang Zhiyue pulled Ming Yuanqing back, who had quickly moved over to see if the man was as exhausted as he said.
Ming Yuanqing pulled Jiang Zhiyue's sleeve and said, "How about Sister Zhiyue give him some food and water? Yuanqing wants to hear his story."
After saying that, he looked at the group of people eagerly, trying to pass the test by being cute.
Mrs. Jiang's heart softened when she saw her. She pulled the coquettish Ming Yuanqing to sit next to her so that she could listen to the man's "telling stories" more closely.
She looked at Jiang Zhiyue and asked, "How about giving him some?"
Jiang Zhiyue nodded slightly, she was willing to exchange some food and water for the news.
Soon, Jiang Dalang took a bamboo tube of water and a few cakes and gave them to the man who was calling out.
The man took the water and pancakes, put them into his dirty bag with a smile, and patted them with his hands.
The man didn't press ahead. After getting water and food, he began to talk about what happened outside Wu County.
The man said lively: "You don't know, the people in the city agreed to give the refugees outside the city one meal a day, but the porridge became thinner and thinner, and finally it became one meal every two days.
Return."
Ming Yuanqing said with great approval: "What they say doesn't mean what they say, they are too bad."
The man looked at the little girl who had interceded for him and got the food. He was quite pleased with it. He continued:
"There is no food, how can people outside the city sit still! In the end, someone instigated us and said that the government in the city does not care about our life or death. How smart I am, I can see at a glance that the person is not well-intentioned and wants us to be a raft.
They force the gentlemen in the city to give them food."
The man smiled proudly and continued: "I saw something was wrong, so I ran away and hid behind."
Ming Yuanqing said seriously again: "Then you are really smart!"
Jiang Zhiyue: "..." Girl, do you know that you are not very smart?
The man continued: "But not everyone outside the city is as smart as us. After listening to that man's words, they actually went to the city gate to make trouble. They didn't even think about the fight between the people and the officials.
, can you fight it?"
"The people in the city must have been on guard against the people outside the city. In a blink of an eye, I saw soldiers holding arrows standing on top of the city wall, and then the arrows flew down.
Yes, the people who caused the trouble are dead, young and old."
"Fortunately, I hid quickly, otherwise I would have been the one lying down."
The man nodded to himself, as if he was very satisfied with how smart he was.
The Jiang family and others also knew from what the man said that not long after they left, the refugees outside the city started fighting with the officers and soldiers in the city.
Ms. Sun was so frightened that she patted her heart. Fortunately, they left early.
She asked in shock: "What about the more than a thousand people outside the city, and they are all dead?"
The man looked at Sun as if he was a fool, and said: "How is that possible? Although they are not as smart as me, they will not continue to move forward even if they are all dead, so the remaining people must be alive."
They all ran away."
"I came here with those people. If I hadn't been smart, I would have starved to death on the way."
Everyone's faces turned dark. This man was too narcissistic. He kept repeating that he was smart, as if he was afraid that others would not know.
There is no useful information left. Those who survived simply came by one of two ways.
After the man finished speaking, he left with satisfaction carrying his own baggage.
After the man left, the Jiang family quickly ate something.
After eating, they planned to continue on their way. They should be able to reach the next county town before this evening.
After the refugees from Wu County leave, they will definitely come here.
They had been delayed in the woods for such a long time, and they didn't know if all those people had arrived.
Moreover, Wu County is like that, will the situation here be better?
