The dissatisfaction of the Chu family has already risen. When they can’t even fill their stomachs, they can still hear the news that Zhang Yiqing is entering the fight for gold. They immediately blamed the resentment on Shi Xi. Human nature is like this.
“Shhh, keep it quiet, it’s not good to be heard.”
The speaker turned his head and glanced subconsciously, and saw that no one noticed him, he let out a sigh of relief, and then stopped saying more.
From the breakfast that the Chu family served today, we can already see how hard the Chu family lived.
Early in the morning, Zhang Xuan stretched his waist and walked out of the room. The Jianbao Pavilion was not opened because of the monster attack. For Zhang Xuan, his same daytime life has also been changed.
This is Zhang Xuan’s upright, looking at the city.
Zhang Xuan lived in the inner city. Just after leaving the inner city boundary, Zhang Xuan saw a scene full of people sleeping on the street.
“My lord, please, give me some, my lord!”
There was a five or six-year-old child holding Zhang Xuan’s calf, with pleading written in his eyes.
Zhang Xuanjin’s attire is in stark contrast with those outside those in ragged clothes, who don’t have enough food, and feel nowhere to sleep.
“My lord, please, save my child. He hasn’t eaten for two days.” A woman in her thirties knelt in front of Zhang Xuan, knocking her head constantly, her hand was cracked. All of them were mouths, with dry mouth, pale face, and sweating on her forehead. It could be seen that she was very weak.
Zhang Xuan saw the mother and son, and suddenly, it seemed that it was the winter many years ago. His mother was also begging so hard, just wanting a bite of food. Although such days are bitter, her heart is always warm. Yeah.
Zhang Xuan sighed, put his hand in his pocket, grabbed a handful of gold coins, just about to take it out, after thinking about it, loosened most of the gold coins, leaving only one, then took it out and threw it in front of you. Women.
The woman looked at the glittering gold coin and was a little startled for a while, but the little boy next to him quickly picked up the gold coin and kept kowtow at Zhang Xuan.
“Thank you, sir, thank you, sir.”
The corners of Zhang Xuan’s mouth opened slightly. Back then, when his mother saw the cotton coat and the paper money handed over by Qinghan, she was also shocked. She was also a child and rushed up to take the cotton coat and money.
Zhang Xuanzheng gave them too much, and he knew that if he gave too much, he would harm the mother and son.
Zhang Xuan rubbed the child’s head, “When you grow up, you have to treat your mother well, you know? Maternal love is the greatest in the world.”
“Yeah.” The boy nodded, “When I grow up, I will definitely become a strong one.”
“I believe you will.” Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, then turned around.
Zhang Xuan didn’t want to go to the outer city anymore. He knew that there were many such mothers and children in the outer city, even more miserable than them. Zhang Xuan didn’t want to see that his childhood came like this.
The outer city is miserable.
Look at the inner city, everyone lives, as usual, singing every night, rich feast.
“While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.”
Deep in the outer city, one can clearly feel the impact of the monster siege on the entire Eastern City, as well as the fear in people’s hearts, but in the inner city, they can’t feel this at all. The people who collect food are preparing. , Sell these grains at a higher price.
Zhang Xuan walked on the streets of the inner city.
A team of officers and men rushed towards Zhang Xuan.
“The monster is coming soon, return to your residence as soon as possible.”
Some officers and soldiers specially escorted Zhang Xuan back to his residence.
Zhang Xuan had just entered the house and heard a big drink outside the courtyard.
“The monster is here, prepare to defend!”
In the sky, birds and monsters attacked again.
Today’s monster attack is more violent than yesterday. Countless birds and monsters hovered in the air, launched a dive attack, and were beheaded by the guards guarding the city.
Today’s monster attack lasted a full day, and it was not until dusk that someone came out to clean up the mess on the street.
Zhang Xuan stayed in the room this day.
As night fell, Cui Tian, who had been in the city lord’s mansion for a whole night, walked out of his room. Two beautiful women followed him, tidying up his messy clothes.
Cui Tian yawned and said, “Who, you guys, follow me.”
Zhang Xuan walked out the door, “Brother Cui, what are you going to do so late?”
“Send grain.” Cui Tian’s face was full of discomfort. “Yesterday the city lord called all those with grain in our hands to the city lord’s mansion. He promised a lot of benefits and wanted us to take out the grain. There were two problems. I agree, I was bitten to death by the monster last night.”
Zhang Xuan understood what it meant to be killed by a monster.
“Brother, if you want to get bored, you just go out with your brother. Now there is no food and money for life. You have to look at which girl, and you can buy a bed for you with a catty of food.” Cui Tian said, rushing to Zhang Xuan. Raised eyebrows.
“Go and see.” Zhang Xuan took a deep breath.
The place where the grain is distributed is on the border between the inner city and the outer city.
The people in the outer city had already received the message that they would share their food tonight, and they all squeezed here.
Zhang Xuan saw that there were many well-dressed merchants, all like Cui Tian, walking toward the dividing line with all their faces reluctantly. Behind them, there were several subordinates pushing carts with food bags thrown in them. .
There are officers and soldiers responsible for maintaining order at the demarcation line.
The Chu family crowded among the crowd.
Shi Xi was particularly dusty in a white gown, but his gown turned into a flowered shirt less than a minute after he squeezed into the crowd. Various black handprints printed various patterns on Shi Xi’s clothes.
Shi Xi looked at the people around him with disgust, and kept yelling: “Go away! You beggars, get away!”
“You are noble, don’t come to get food!”
“They are also bereaved dogs, and still pretend to be?”
Shi Xi’s words immediately drew a large number of people’s dissatisfaction.
Not only Shi Xi, but Chu Jisheng and Quan Dingding, the rest of the Chu family came out to receive food.
Nearly 30,000 people were crushed in darkness, and the noise was endless.
When the food was distributed, almost everyone rushed forward frantically to get more food.
Zhang Xuan looked at the scene before him and couldn’t help but feel a little sad. This world, no matter where he is, is the weak and the strong. In the heyday, the gap is not big, but in the troubled times, the weak, even living, are extravagant desires.
This is even more certain, Zhang Xuan’s determination to become the strongest.
Among the crowd, Shi Xi held his own identity and was disdainful of competing with others. When he came to the food distribution office without delay, today’s food had already been distributed.
“It’s gone.” The food divider is like driving away flies.
“Nothing?” Shi Xi glanced at the already empty grain bag. He suddenly saw Zhang Xuan standing not far away. Shi Xi suddenly had an idea and shouted, “Zhang Yiqing! Pay back the grain!”
