When Fang Sanduo and Er Niu arrived, Xiaolinzi was almost full of people.

It was originally a deserted forest, but after merchants hawked it here and attracted people in need, it immediately became a small market.

It took Fang Sanduo and the others a long time to get a general understanding of the buying and selling prices in this temporary market.

Most of these merchants sell daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil and salt.

The combination of several merchants directly turned this into a seller's market.

All the supplies have almost tripled the previous prices of the shops in the county!

I heard that it only doubled at the beginning.

By the time Fang Sanduo came, the amount had tripled.

"Sanduo, what should we do? It's so expensive, how can we afford it..."

Er Niu looked extremely ugly after seeing the price of grain here, and several villagers who came out together gathered together to discuss what to do.

"How about... let's go to the county town to buy it?"

Fang Erbao spoke hesitantly beside Erniu.

The price here frightened him.

Originally, everyone was miserable, but Erbao's family was even more embarrassed.

He can still buy it at the price in the county seat, but he can't afford it at the price here.

"What are you thinking? After you go in, you can still come out with the little money you have on you? Now that the magistrate of the county has made it clear that he wants to scrape our bodies, if we go at this time, wouldn't that be death?"

Er Niu's words directly shattered Er Bao's luck.

It made Er Bao's face extremely ugly.

There are still good officials, but there are none in Jiaoling.

"But... but the price here, we really can't afford it with this little money..."

Another person from the same village also said in a bitter tone.

His family situation is similar to that of Er Bao, who cannot afford it.

Not to mention a bucket of rice.

At this price, it's not bad if you can buy two taels.

But two taels is enough for how many days? Once the money is spent, it will be gone, but at that time, the family of five will have to eat dirt!

Among those present, the one with the least pressure was Fang Sanduo.

He is a rare family of three in the village, with no old age and only one child.

The others are old and young, there are seven or eight people at every turn, and the money is not as much as Fang San. On weekdays, everyone helps each other to get through.

"How about...we directly..."

Er Niu was also in a hurry, he lowered his head and said something in a low voice, and then made a violent grabbing motion with his left hand.

"You don't want to die?!"

Er Bao who was next to him hurriedly pressed his hand and said eagerly.

"You don't even look at the guards of these merchants. They all have knives and sticks, and their necks are as thick as your thighs! It's just a few of us, haha, if we go up and grab them, I'm afraid we'll just lose our lives! "

As soon as Erbao finished speaking, something unexpected happened next to them.

"Stop him!"

I saw a black and thin man running frantically out of the crowd, holding a grain bag in his hand.

Jia Shang, who was wearing silk clothes behind him, was yelling at his guards angrily.

"Also... there is really a life-threatening..."

Er Bao looked at the black and thin villager, who was caught up by Kong Wu's powerful guards in a few steps, and then he was pushed to the ground. After grabbing the grain bag back, the guard kicked the villager on the ground hard Kicked over!

The guards were wearing hard leather boots!

And the black and thin villager obviously lived in extreme hardship. He only wore trousers, with a piece of rotten cloth wrapped around the bottom of his trousers, and a cloth strip tied around his head.

The skin that has been exposed to the sun all year round is as dark as wild boar skin, and without enough nutrition, the whole person is as thin as a human skeleton model.

Er Niu saw with his own eyes that the guard kicked the poor man's chest. With that kick, he could clearly see a palm-sized pit in his chest and ribs, and then he saw the black and thin man screaming He didn't cry, and when he opened his mouth, he spit out a mouthful of black and red blood that was a bit viscous and bubbly.

He coughed up two more mouthfuls of blood, and then fell to the ground, his chest heaving up and down like a bellows, unable to breathe, like a fish landed on the shore.

He went up and down like this for about ten times, and the range of the ups and downs became smaller as he went to the back, until the ups and downs stopped completely, and blood slowly flowed out from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were dull...

he died……

The guard kicked the poor man to death completely, but he didn't feel any emotion about his kick to death. He rubbed the toe of his shoe on the ground, grabbed the grain bag and returned to Jia Shang's side.

This scene completely extinguished Er Niu's small thoughts.

But just when Er Niu and the others thought it was over.

Unexpectedly, this was just the beginning.

These merchants overestimated the deterrent power of their guards.

In other words, they underestimated how helpless the lives of these villagers affected by drought and famine are at this time.

Erniu and the others suffered from the disaster for only one month, and the famine here has just begun.

But most of the people gathered in this grove were victims from other counties rushing to escape the famine.

These people, like the black and thin man in front of them, have already reached the point of desperation.

fear death?

It is because I am afraid of death that I have to give it a go!

They knew that if they didn't get something to eat, they would slowly starve to death without being beaten to death by these guards.

That being the case, why not go crazy while you still have some strength!

Those present, and some of them came with the black and thin man.

They all know the bottom line.

When the black and thin man shot, they were full of hope.

If he can escape, it means they have a chance too!

But the result was not what they expected.

This bitter man failed, and just as they imagined, he died.

It's just that he died a little earlier and was kicked to death.

But people who know him better can see more information that others don't notice.

When they saw the black and thin man die, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the look in his eyes before death was said to be dull, but in fact, there was an emotion that only they could understand.

relieved and relieved

They don't want to starve to death, because they will become starving ghosts and go to hell, and they don't want to commit suicide, because the hell will not accept suicide, and they will become lonely ghosts.

In this era of lack of entertainment, modern people cannot imagine their desire and loyalty to faith.

What customs are dismissed by everyone in modern times, here, it is a truth that everyone firmly believes in.

Because they lack knowledge and live in hardship.

When life is difficult, they want to change, but lack of knowledge makes them unable to change.

This cycle makes them miserable.

Not only physically, but also spiritually.

Don't think that only modern society has the so-called internal friction.

And it is precisely because of this that certain beliefs and theories of ghosts and gods make them believe deeply.

Therefore, these people feel that they cannot starve to death or commit suicide, so being killed by others is a kind of relief instead.

It is in this logic that ordinary people cannot understand that these people broke out.

These people, who were almost the same as the black and thin man, just made simple eye contact, and then ran towards the merchant's grain cart in unison.

The guards were caught off guard and were directly knocked away by these desperate people, and then they took their grain bags into the pile of rice, and after the bags were bulging, they pulled the hemp rope at the mouth of the bag, The mouth of the grain bag was immediately tightened, and finally they turned their heads and ran away as soon as they raised their hands.

The whole set of movements is as if they have been rehearsed, and they are extremely fast.

But in fact, they are all just relying on their own instincts.

Under such circumstances, one of them was quick-witted. After grabbing the grain, he didn't run away immediately, but threw the grain bag next to him into the crowd, and then shouted in a bewitching tone.

"If you don't grab it, you all want to starve to death?!"

As soon as the man's words came out, the Jia Shang next to him immediately frowned, screaming in his heart that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted at the guard at the top of his lungs:

"Kill him for me!!"

Clang!

The guard finally pulled out the knife, and walked towards the shouting man with the knife in hand.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the person who shouted wanted to run away.

But he is smart because he came up with this provocative method.

But, that's how smart it is.

The so-called stick out the bird.

His words certainly made the others below eager to move, but because of the delay, he took a step too late and failed to escape the guards' pursuit.

He had no time to dodge as the guard swiped his knife.

When the long-sharpened blade cut across the man's back, the skin on his back was cut directly like clothes, blood spilled out, and the flesh and blood underneath turned out. He rolled on the ground with a cry of pain. When the grain bag fell down, it flung out.

Bits of blood flowed down the arm onto the sackcloth of the grain bag, soaking part of the fabric.

And this bag of grain just threw an arc in the air, and fell straight into Fang Sanduo's arms!

Fang Sanduo looked at the grain bag that he instinctively caught, his eyes widened, and he was a little silly for a moment.

However, seeing the ferocious guards rushing towards him, his mind immediately cleared up, he turned his head in an instant, and ran away!

When Er Niu and the others saw this situation, they hid very quickly one by one, fearing that they would be affected and get stabbed.

The guard wanted to continue chasing, but the screams from Jia Shang made him turn his head back.

It turned out that at the moment Fang Sanduo escaped, the words said by the person who made the head bird finally ignited the greedy hearts of these poor people present.

When there is no way out, who hasn't the heart to go berserk?

In addition, the originally seemingly powerful guards chased them in an extremely embarrassing manner after several of them fled separately. They didn't dare to leave Jia Shang too far, and they couldn't pursue them. Each of them only had two legs, and they could only chase one of them. .

They are poor but not stupid.

Frightened by the guard's aura before, everyone behaved well and did not have any evil thoughts.

But at this time, it seems that the guard is not so scary.

What was supposed to be a deadly game turned into a gamble.

If you lose, you will bleed and die on the spot. If you win, that is the hope of the whole family!

then

"Everyone grab it! Anyway, we can't afford it, and we are dead! Why don't you give it a go!"

"Quick, let's run separately, they won't be able to catch up!"

"Kill this merchant to death! The food will be ours!"

This is how a riot unfolded.

Some businessmen who are wise and safe, when they see the villagers rioting, immediately stay away from their grain and goods, and put on guards to protect themselves.

The villagers are all trying to grab food. If he does this, no one will ask for a dead end. Everyone bypasses him to grab food.

And some merchants who couldn't figure it out stood in front of their grain and goods, cursing and threatening, but at this time, how could the villagers who had already given up their lives be afraid of his few threats?

With a good temper, he directly pulled it away and pushed it away.

Those with a bad temper, or villagers who didn't like their approach before, started directly.

hammer, hit, kick, bite

Although they don't know how to fight, who can't do the most basic Wang Baquan?

The lonely figure of Jia Shang screamed after being beaten by many people, and hurriedly called for his guards.

The guards who were chasing could only turn back to protect their employers.

At this time, the scene was completely chaotic.

The goods on the grain truck were quickly robbed.

Those who didn't grab it, saw the person who grabbed it, and immediately stepped forward to grab it.

As a result, the whole scene was completely out of control.

As time goes by, everyone knows that the longer the time, the worse it will be for them, so the villagers who were originally protecting each other are now starting to fight on their own.

It took only a few breaths to grab the food together, and when the food truck was empty, everyone began to fight among themselves.

At first everyone just pushed and shoved, but when someone threw a punch, the scene immediately turned into a full-scale martial arts action.

stones, teeth, branches

Anything that can be touched has become everyone's weapon.

The guards led Jia Shang away from the crazy villagers, and watched the group of people fighting each other in horror.

Yes, it is fighting.

Those who hadn't left at this time were already red-eyed, and those who robbed the food would be attacked by those who didn't.

Moreover, these attacks were all aimed at killing people.

The riot was completely calmed down until more than a dozen dilapidated corpses were left at the scene, as well as several wounded and howling villagers.

Grain and rice were scattered all over the wasteland, and blood was everywhere.

The grains and rice were full of blood in the blood stains, making them extremely plump and bloody.

These merchants looked at each other, and their faces were already gloomy and blue.

Their food supplies have been completely gone.

Such a result is no longer something they can bear.

One of them, Jia Shang, beckoned, and a guard walked over with his head down. Jia Shang used his hand as a shield to whisper a few words into the guard's ear, and the guard nodded, then turned and left.

And these merchants are waiting here.

However, they also cleaned up the scene smoothly.

Execute the villagers who are not dead one by one on the spot!

Out of venting their anger, these villagers felt extreme pain during the last period of their death, and then died with a grim face.

Wait until the sky is dark, when it is about to get dark.

The original bloody smell in the wild forest has also dissipated.

Obviously, this place is only a few miles away from the county seat.

Such a big murder case happened here, but the county government did not send anyone to investigate.

The faces of these businessmen and others were full of sorrow. Just when they couldn't sit still, the sound of horseshoes came from the side. They turned their heads overjoyed and saw Taoist priests wearing Taoist uniforms riding on horseback. The horse is running this way.

After the team approached, the hooves of the horses were raised under the boos, and after they settled down again, the Taoists dismounted one after another.

Among them was a horse with black hair, except for the four hooves and the white hair in the middle of the horse's head. It was vigorous and powerful, with a majestic appearance, obviously it should be a good horse.

And the one riding this horse is naturally the leader of this group of Taoists.

After the leader got off his horse, he walked forward with a gloomy face flicking his sleeves, and a snake could be vaguely seen embroidered with green silk thread on his cuff.

I saw that this Taoist had a handsome face, his black hair was tied on top of his head by a Taoist crown, and there was a part of hair on the forehead that turned out to be white, and this strand of white hair added a bit of strangeness to this Taoist.

"Emissary of the king!"

Although this Taoist is wearing a Taoist robe and a Taoist crown, the people around him only call him a messenger.

After the king's envoy came here, he ignored these people and walked to the wasteland where the fight had just occurred.

I saw him standing on the blood-stained ground, came to a bloody puddle, suddenly squatted down, and picked up a few rice grains that had absorbed enough blood with his fingers.

Suddenly, he stuffed the blood rice into his mouth.

Chew a few mouthfuls, then swallow.

His fingers were still stained with blood, but he just rubbed his fingers together to wipe off the soiled blood, squinted his eyes, and said.

"wasting food. that's damned"
