Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 10 Huanglong is ordered

Fortunately, this Hanguang Wuling did not have any independent and special system, and it was still built with rammed earth. All the talents were able to be preserved. As for those who were farther away and reacted slower, they could only be swallowed by the rolling flood.

It turned out that Chen Jindou went to the river to watch the situation of crossing the river, and suddenly saw the river rising, he was a little scared, so he crowed: "This should be a flood, will the river embankment collapse?"

The people on the bank of the river are most jealous of such words, so they want to beat him. He had no choice but to run back, just in time to meet Daoist Ma. Ma Daochang had heard the flood survivors talk about the situation of the Yinghe River bursting in Chenzhou, and he felt that it was somewhat similar.

So, the two of them didn't care about anything, and ran back to make preparations first, but they saved everyone by mistake.

Looking back now, Zhang Shun was still afraid after a meal. As the saying goes: "Water and fire have no mercy", if it wasn't for the two of them warning just now, no matter what time traveler you are, no matter what ambition you have, manpower will eventually be exhausted, a natural disaster will wipe you out completely.

Zhang Shun looked at the surrounding terrain again, but saw that the flood was raging around, and the Mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu of Han was like an isolated island. A little further away, there are mountains that rise and fall, which should be the Mang Mountain that the old man said. These thousands of people are trapped here, unable to enter or retreat.

There are still several sacrificial buildings in the cemetery. Fortunately, the food delivery team is large and powerful, and they are armed. In addition, Zhang Shun and the others shouted for help, but two rooms were let out, but Qian Fuzi and others occupied them. Zhang Shun didn't care about him either.

It's just that at night, everyone passed the mountain road for days and rushed, but they were all hungry. By the way, Zhang took four of his subordinates and wanted to borrow some food from Master Qian.

But he never thought that when he arrived at the gate of the sacrificial house, he heard a few coachmen and soldiers arguing with Mr. Qian and others. It turned out that Mr. Qian was originally from Master Qian Liang, and he developed a stingy temperament.

In his daily life, he had a lot to worry about. Now that the food is about to be sent to the place, it is even more unwilling to lose a little bit. Along the way, the big guys bought food on the road and didn't take it seriously. Anyway, Li Baihu would give compensation later. I didn't expect this guy to be reluctant to part with the food at a time like this.

So, Zhang Shun went in and persuaded, "Master Qian, it's time like this, how much can we eat for so many people? Only after we have a full meal can we have the strength to continue delivering food!"

"Eat and eat, you know how to eat! Do you know how much salt can be exchanged for a bucket of grain, and how much silver can be exchanged for this salt? Besides, who will eat it, and who will not eat it? Let's eat it, and the hungry people outside will see it." What do we do when we get there?"

"The grain we have left and right is also exchanged for money. Why don't you sell some to them directly? It's a good deed and you have time left." Zhang Shun continued to persuade.

"Okay, that's great, Mr. Zhang Dashan! So you tell them, ten taels of silver is a bucket! You can come and buy it anytime." Qian Fuzi sarcastically said.

"It's too expensive. In a good harvest year, one tael of silver can be exchanged for twelve or three buckets. Isn't this appropriate?" Zhang Shun was a little puzzled, why he couldn't figure it out if he had offended this fellow.

"You also know that it is a matter of a good harvest. Now that the flood is raging, it is the year of the catastrophe. I sell ten taels of silver for a bucket, which is considered my benevolence and righteousness. But you are calculating which is more expensive, this silver or your own life ?” Master Qian said eloquently.

"Then you are not afraid that they will be so hungry that they will come up and steal our food?" Zhang Shun threatened in a low voice.

"Struggle? Robbery if you have the ability! Starve them for several days, they can't even crawl, and still want to grab food? Little brother, learn a little bit! Only let them grab food if they are full and have nothing to do. We lost our food." Qian Fuzi argued forcefully.

Zhang Shun thought about it, but he was also helpless: This person will die as long as he wants, why is he always hostile to him, what's going on? I didn't offend him either.

Can't figure it out, and don't think about it anymore. Zhang Shun turned around to find Daoist Ma, Chen Jindou and the others, and asked them to pool up their money and buy a few buckets of grain first, in case this guy turned his back on him, and he didn't have anything to eat.

After buying the food, Zhang Shun thought about it, took out some more, and distributed it to the old man who helped him. The old man had just found his grandson, when he saw Zhang Shun offering him food, he immediately refused.

"Don't think about yourself, but also think about your grandson. Half a child, eat poor old man. It's time to eat, let's eat first, let's get through the difficulties." Zhang Shun persuaded.

"I don't want to say thank you for this great kindness. I'll just accept it. Lizi, come here and kowtow to your benefactor." The old man knew that the food for survival was precious, so he was very grateful.

Zhang Shun saw that he was uneasy, so he took it seriously, and then he helped "Li Zi" and said: "Old man, this is the way we owe each other, and you must never mention the matter of repaying your kindness in the future."

Not to mention the gratitude of the old man, but also to say that Zhang Shun and others cooked a delicious meal at night. The eyes of the starving people around, as well as the coachmen and soldiers in the team all turned green.

Zhang Shun had no choice. No matter how much he divided these buckets of rice, it was not enough for everyone to eat, so he had to persuade: "Everyone who is short on money, gather together and buy some food as much as possible. The flood comes and goes quickly. In a few days, we should we can go out."

On the second day, the flood still did not recede. Zhang Shun was afraid that the flood would recede too late, so he didn't dare to put too much rice, and asked his subordinates to eat with their stomachs open. Especially Wukong, Zhang Shun suspected that if he was fed, the few buckets of rice he had would be enough to feed him in one meal.

At night, there were really hungry people who tried to steal food, but were discovered by the guards, and Master Qian ordered them to be killed as an example to others. This time Zhang Shun didn't speak again, he found that this guy was targeting him, maybe the more he talked, the more rampant this guy was.

On the third day, some of the hungry people had fainted from starvation, and the crowd became more restless. At noon, someone tried to grab grain again, but Master Qian ordered his guards to kill him and hang him on a tree in front of the grain truck.

Zhang Shun wanted to cook, but seeing the hungry people staring at him with green eyes, he panicked. Zhang Shun knew that he would not be able to eat this meal, so he simply asked the hungry people to find a few big pots. There were also a few iron pots brought by the hungry people themselves or taken from the flood. Zhang Shun demolished some buildings in the tomb of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty's sacrifice garden, gathered some wood, made a few stoves, added more water and cooked gruel for distribution. For everyone to eat.

In order to prevent everyone from getting too much, Zhang Shun also asked the old man he knew before to find a few prestigious ones, and arranged for everyone to line up to eat. This is porridge, but in fact there are not a few grains of rice in a thin bowl.

But as the saying goes: don't worry about scarcity but inequality. Everyone who has no money to buy rice has porridge to eat, but they are all right. Even the coachmen and soldiers who had no money in the previous team ran over to beg for a bowl to drink. Even some fainted people who were about to die came back to life in a daze after drinking a bowl of this "grain porridge".

On the fourth day, even Zhang Shun, who had had a full meal before, felt so hungry that he couldn't stand it anymore. Zhang Shun knew that something was going to happen. If the hungry people couldn't eat today, they would definitely riot and grab food. The sky and the earth are big, it is better to eat the biggest.

Relying on the last bit of his professional ethics, Zhang Shun found Master Qian and said to him sincerely: "Master Qian, things can't go on like this. If the hungry people can't eat any more food, they will definitely riot and grab food. Hurry up and put some food. Take it easy."

"No need!" Qian Fuzi said arrogantly, then turned his head and said to the soldiers, "I will bury the pot and make food in a while, and everyone will be full, so keep an eye on me, and I will kill anyone who dares to come and snatch it! "

"If someone rebels" he said, he paused here, and said meaningfully, "Kill me desperately, this is a great credit!"

Zhang Shun wanted to say more, but it didn't make sense, so he had to leave.

Outside the door, Zhang Shun looked at the hungry people who were staggering around, and knew that once Mr. Qian and the others buried the pot to make food, these hungry people who had no strength would burst out with all their strength and tear them to pieces.

It's hard to persuade the damn ghost, Zhang Shun didn't want to sit still, thinking he should prepare something.

At this moment, someone suddenly came to the front. Zhang Shun looked up, but it was a small flag in the grain transport team, but he couldn't remember the name.

The man led him to a secluded place, and said without hesitation: "Brother Zhang Wuhao, how old is the idiot, and I will call you Brother Zhang. Brother Wei admires you for doing things, and the soldiers in our guard are willing to listen to you." Order, kill that old thief Qian!"

"If you want to kill, you can kill yourself, why bother to embarrass me for nothing?" Zhang Shun said in surprise.

"We are all officers and soldiers of the guard, and our lives are all in Chenzhou. This old thief is under the magistrate, and we can't afford to offend them. What's more, if you don't kill him, he will kill you!" Zhang Wuhao gestured with his hand.

"Why did you kill me? I have no grudge against him." Zhang Shun asked strangely.

"Li Zongqi is dead, and he can't explain to Li Baihu. That monk Wukong happened to follow you again, and he happened to plant this on you. Just now, he explained to us, saying that the crazy monk was too hungry to walk. Now, we are going to let us take advantage of the chaos of these two days to kill you."

"In that case, why and why did you tell me?" Zhang Shun was dubious.

"This guy looks down on us at all, he doesn't even want to give us food, and wants to use us as a weapon. We are not stupid. Besides, others don't know, but we know it in our hearts. Although we are called officers and soldiers, we are no doubt like slaves. It’s fine to scare the civilians with a weapon on weekdays, but if the hungry people swarm up, I’m afraid we will all die without a place to die.” The little flag said truthfully.

"Then what does this matter to me?"

"Little brother, don't lie to me. At the same time, everyone in Chenzhou Mansion knows the rumors about you. You are not an ordinary person. Forty or fifty of us are willing to make an exception and let you be this guy. Then put The food was distributed to him, so you and I will have to live." Xiao Qi said harshly.

"You don't do it?"

"After all, we have our roots in Chenzhou, so we dare not make a move!" Xiao Qi explained.

"Okay, let me think about it, and I'll write back to you later." Zhang Shun said fraudulently. In fact, he had already heard that these people had the idea of ​​using themselves as a shield again. But Zhang Shun wasn't afraid at all, and didn't need to think about it.

The hungry people are rioting today, and when the smell of food is wafting, that is the time when the hungry people are mobilized. Will there be an end under the general situation? Take advantage of the situation and rise up, no one can resist, and any thoughts and thoughts will be crushed by you.

I, Zhang Shun, set out to step into troubled times, today!
