Fast Traveling Underworld Wish Department

Chapter 434 Ant People 3
On a long road, countless people are walking on the earth. They don't know where their destination is or how long they can live. They only know that they want to live and move forward.

The scorching sun was shining in the sky, the earth was dry and cracked, the water source was dried up, and the plants withered.God, it's getting hotter and hotter.

On the streets of Kyoto, a luxurious carriage was hurrying towards the imperial palace, and no one dared to stop it wherever it passed.

On that day, the sage went to court to discuss disaster relief, and appointed Ning Wubo's son as an imperial envoy to rescue Jiangcheng.The household department allocates food, which is brought to the disaster area by disaster relief personnel.

The magnificent carriage carried Uncle Ning Wu's son to Jiangcheng, passing a city on the way, the son said: "I want to rest here for a while."

The local officials and squires prepared a grand banquet to welcome Uncle Ning Wu, a group of people chatted and laughed happily.The county magistrate pointed to a person and said, "Your Majesty, this is Mr. Zhao, a wealthy local businessman. He is the most kind-hearted man, and he is a well-known family of charity."

Mr. Zhao is fat and white, and he smiles when he sees people. He is a kind-hearted fat man.He hurriedly said: "In front of the prince and the county venerable, how can a villain be called a master, and the county lord is a villain."

Uncle Ning Wu laughed loudly, "Master Zhao is really good, I like a charitable person like you."

After a day's rest, Uncle Ning Wu continued to rush to Jiangcheng, eating and sleeping all the way, even his gorgeous carriage was covered with a layer of dust.The son sighed: "Sure enough, the journey is difficult. I understand what the sages said about suffering."

Three days later, when the disaster relief team arrived in Jiangcheng, Uncle Ning Wu hurriedly got out of the car to wash and rest.The deputy envoy handed over the relief supplies to the chief official of Jiangcheng, and the accompanying censor hurriedly changed his clothes, and then looked around accompanied by the yamen servant.

The chief officer of Jiangcheng summoned the magistrates of the surrounding counties and began to assign disaster relief tasks.The county magistrates said that the disaster situation in their county was really serious and they needed the help of the court.

The county official of the first county that Lu Tanwei and the others passed said: "Fu Zun, it's not that the lower officials are more expensive, it is that many victims of the disaster have fled to the lower officials, and the lower officials have already emptied the county town in order to maintain it. There is no other way, please ask the government official to investigate clearly."

The official said: "With you, how much do you want? Go to the imperial envoy and ask for it."

Seeing that the county magistrate complained was useful, the other county magistrates followed suit.A county magistrate wore patched clothes with a disheveled face. He ate up all the refreshments in the main official's mansion, and then reached out to get them in front of other colleagues.

The chief officer was startled and asked quickly: "Weixian, what are you doing?"

The county magistrate swallowed the food in his mouth, poured another cup of tea vigorously before standing up, and said with a wry smile: "My lord, my colleagues are laughing at me, I am really very hungry."

"Could it be that under your rule, even you, the county venerable, have nothing to eat?"

The county magistrate said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the lower officials have no food to eat, but that there are many hungry people in the city, and the lower officials can't bear it, so they will."

The Fu Zun praised: "This is the country's virtuous talent, the people's parents and officials."

Fu Zun also decided with sympathy that he must fight hard for this subordinate. Such a talented person is only a county magistrate, and it is really buried.But everything will be discussed after the disaster is over, Fu Zun remained calm.

The Fu Zun declared the amount of food reported by the county magistrates, and the disaster relief team deleted, deleted, and subtracted, and distributed the food. As for how to provide disaster relief, that is the responsibility of the county magistrates. If it is not done well, the Yushi is still here. Let them know how great it is.

The disaster relief officials happily dived into the various casinos in Jiangcheng, laughing and laughing all day long, and their bones were three points lighter.Moreover, people are often invited to dinners, and a lot of friends have been made. In a short period of time, they have become life-and-death friends.

The county magistrates happily went back with the food, and began to call on the elders and wise men of the village to help the disaster relief and rescue the victims.The entire Jiangcheng was in operation, those who distributed food distributed food, and those who made money made money.

Lu Tanwei and the others finally had a way out. When they arrived at the new county town, they found that there were soup kitchens outside the city, as well as those who hired people and bought people.

When they discovered this, everyone flocked to line up and drank a bowl of porridge happily.Then, like visiting a market, when someone called for someone important, he hurried over to inquire, looking for a suitable way of life for him.

Of course, this search is one-sided. It is just someone else's search for these victims. As long as the victims are willing to ask, they will agree.

Mother Lu drank a bowl of porridge and asked Father Lu, "Shall we go to Fucheng?"

Father Lu said: "I'm not going, let's find a job here, let's talk about it after we survive."

Father Lu said: "Wei Wei, come here."

Lu Tanwei walked up to Lu's father, and Lu's father said seriously: "I have forgotten the previous things. After being hungry for so long, cannibalism is a common occurrence. Don't keep it in your mind. Forget these things, and you will be fine in the future." gone."

To outsiders, this is just a word about a father's concern for his children, and he can only say one thing, pity the hearts of parents all over the world.The most important thing is to lament the hardships of the victims.

Tan Lu was stunned for a moment, and agreed: "Okay." She knew that Lu's father wanted to talk about her murder. It is normal for a few people to die in a disaster year. I'm afraid there is no evidence, so it's better to forget it.

Father Lu leaned over to the side who wanted to hire someone to listen.Someone shouted: "You want a servant, 10 yuan a month, and you can take care of the food." Someone shouted: "You want a maid, 1 tael a month, you can take care of food and housing." Someone shouted: "Master Li wants someone to carry the bag, 10 yuan a day." , is anyone coming?"

There are a lot of people in front of everyone, and the selected ones are full of smiles, as if they have been redeemed.Those who were not selected were disappointed, and continued to look for opportunities elsewhere.

But Lu's father listened to it for a long time, and it was just some slave coolie's work, and these jobs were not what he expected.Father Lu pulled his wife and daughter along and said, "Let's go to the city and find a job."

Lu Tanwei's mother and daughter followed Lu's father into the city, but they were stopped in front of the city gate and asked, "Do you have a living?"

Father Lu said, "I'm a scholar, and I'm planning to go to the city to find a job."

The defenders of the city said: "That's not okay, you can't do anything, you have to make a living to enter the city. Go, don't let me drive you away."

Father Lu was stunned, and said anxiously: "I am a scholar. It is not difficult to find a living in the city. You let us in first, and I can find it. Besides, the imperial court has ordered all the counties to help the victims of the disaster. Are you going to Disobey the imperial court's orders?"

The guards at the city gate pushed Father Lu away, almost pushing Father Lu to the ground.He spat and said disdainfully: "I don't know the imperial court's order. I will do whatever our county lord tells me to do. If you have the ability, go to our county lord. You're just a scholar, what can you do!"

Lu Tanwei and Lu's mother supported Lu's father to prevent him from falling.However, Father Lu's face was flushed with anger, and he pointed at the city gate speechless.

The one who asked for a maid happened to choose someone to go back to the city, and the guard who guarded the city was courteously joking with this lady in rich clothes, with an extremely humble attitude, completely different from just now.

The mother-in-law glanced casually at the Lu family and said, "What's wrong with them?"

The city guard said: "You also know that many unscrupulous people want to force their way into the city recently. How can our county have so much food for them to eat? No, why don't they leave!" He sighed, his eyes full of helplessness.

The mother-in-law doesn't care about these things, it's not surprising that these people can be seen everywhere.

When did Lu's father see such a thing, how could he not make a sound when he was insulted in front of him. "Is there any reason for this, is there any reason for this?"

The city guard laughed out loud, pointing to Lu's father and the other three who couldn't stand upright from laughing.

The mother-in-law suddenly gasped and asked Lu's father: "My master is going to serve as a servant, is your girl willing to go? If so, I can bring you into the city together, so as to save you from suffering."

Father Lu said angrily, "I'm a talented person, how could I do such a thing of honor by selling girls? If you give up this attitude, even if I starve to death, I will never do this."

The mother-in-law hesitated for a moment, and then took another look at Lu Tanwei, only to see that the girl's face was dirty and she didn't look like a beauty, so forget it, to save trouble.She shook her head and gave up on the matter.

But the Lu family couldn't stay here any longer. Although the mother-in-law didn't say anything, the people guarding the city gate were very capable of making their own decisions, so they had to vent the anger for her.

The Lu family had no choice but to continue to flee.Before they left, they saw a place where victims of the disaster were rioting. They held bamboo poles and all kinds of weird weapons. They smashed people when they saw them.

The defenders of the city didn't care about venting their anger against the Lu family, so they hurried in and closed the city gate.

The Lu family was involved in the riot in this way, and the leader hacked several people with a hatchet, and wiped out all the rich people outside the city. Take care of yourself, grab food with me, and eat enough."
