The famine-escape cub vs. the fake daughter cub

The village chief who was driving the ox cart at the front of the convoy quickly stopped the cart and signaled the cars behind to stop as well.

"Old man, why are you stopping here?"

The village chief looked around and saw only an old man with two children. There was a cemetery in front of them and a small hill behind the cemetery. Apart from that, everything was clear.

"Kind people, please be kind and give my grandson something to eat! My family is miserable..."

Mr. Huang cried as he spoke.

The people of Yunjia Village have always been kind to others. They have only been out for about ten days and have not seen any bad people on the road. The village chief hesitated for a while. In the end, he was just a spectator. He poured a small bowl of water and a small piece of dry food, and said, "Old man, please speak slowly."

The old man was out of breath and spoke slowly. He finally finished his speech slowly while crying, and then asked, "Kind people, are you also going to escape the famine? Can you take me with you? I'm afraid my little grandchildren won't live long if they stay here."

The village chief felt very sympathetic towards the other party, but how could he possibly take these people with him?

"Old man, our team basically has ox carts. If your family walks, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up with the team. Why don't you organize some in the village and gather your close neighbors to escape together, so that we can rely on each other." He politely refused.

Mr. Huang was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile on his face, but that smile was uglier than crying: "I didn't think it through. I will go back and gather the people who are still alive in our village. We must escape with our lives. Benefactor, which road do you plan to take and where are you going? If we are destined to meet you again, maybe I can work like a cow or a horse to repay you for your kindness today!"

Seeing that the old man was so easy to talk to, the village chief smiled and replied, "We plan to go to Bingzhou first. If there is a famine in Bingzhou, we will go to Huzhou. I think there are lakes and rivers in Huzhou, so there won't be no water at all, and we may be able to escape. If we are destined to meet, let's meet in Huzhou!"

"Huzhou, Huzhou! Great!" Mr. Huang muttered a few words, then hurriedly thanked him and slowly left with his two children.

Everyone started their journey again, but the old patriarch sat on the crossbar of the ox cart and sighed, "Don't stop the car randomly next time. If someone stops us and dozens of strong men rush out from all sides, we will be in trouble."

My son is good in every way except that he is too kind-hearted. He has never seen great evil, and I don’t know how bad people’s hearts can be when they are in desperate situations.

The village chief chuckled twice, "Dad, don't worry. I stopped because I saw that the old man only had two children and there was no place for people to hide nearby. The villages and towns we passed before were all blocked by a large group of men who wouldn't let us in or out. I finally met a local and I wanted to get some information."

"Look, I have found out, haven't I? This place is really scary. They have arrested both men and women, so it's clear that things won't be peaceful. We should hurry up and get to Bingzhou as soon as possible."

The old patriarch nodded and said, "This news is indeed useful."

While they were discussing here, Lou Hanyu felt that the carriage was surprisingly empty.

When they set out at noon, Yunli shouted that Jinsuan and Yinzun smelled a little too strong and she wanted to take them to the front to get rid of the smell, so she led the two animals to the first carriage, leaving her and the twins alone in the carriage.

The two little guys fell asleep immediately, and she had just had enough sleep, so she didn't feel sleepy at all. Suddenly there was no one to talk to, and even the animals she could pet were gone.

so boring!

But at this moment, Yunli was not in the convoy.

She even brought her two beasts and strolled to the hillside of the cemetery, overlooking the surrounding terrain.

Mr. Huang and his companions did not notice her, but she had already noticed this melancholy family.

Even when she saw the Yunjia Village convoy, the old man pulled a little boy over and said something to him. She also saw the little boy running around the hillside.

Her intuition told her that she should catch up with the little boy and see what they were going to do.

After roughly looking at the direction the boy was heading, she rode her donkey to chase him.

But the further she walked, the more she felt something was wrong.

She had just seen that a nearby village was in the west, but the child was walking towards the south.

Yunli decisively chased after him, but before she could make a move, Jin Suan leaped over and knocked the child to the ground. Yin Zun also jumped over from the electric bike and stepped on the boy's butt with one foot.

"Don't eat me, don't eat me! My meat is sour and smelly! There are so many people coming over there, and there are cows, and there is a lot of food! Sister, don't eat me, go eat them!"

The boy was pinned to the ground and screamed in fear.

Yunli's heart sank; things were indeed developing in the direction she had worried about.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to sell the traces of those people to someone and steal food from me?"

"No, no, no!" The little boy shook his head again and again, "Don't worry, sister, I won't look for anyone else. Those people are all yours, all yours!"

Yunli asked Jin Suan and Yin Zun to let the child go, helped him sit up, and stuffed a plum candy into his mouth, which tasted sour and sweet and made people salivate.

"What did your grandfather ask you to do? Tell me carefully, and these two candies will be yours." Yunli shook a few plum candies in his hand.

Sugar is a luxury item in this era.

The child felt so happy that he could die just by eating the candy in his mouth. When he saw that the older sister had several identical candies in her hand, his eyes widened.

"My great grandfather asked me to find Uncle Hong, saying that there are lots of people and lots of food here, and asked Uncle Hong to bring people to find my great grandfather, so that we can catch them together." The little boy didn't understand what these words meant, but his great grandfather asked him to pass on the message, so he did it obediently.

People’s hearts are no longer as they used to be, and morals are corrupt.

Yunli closed his eyes and asked, "Where are your family members? Who else is there besides your great grandfather?"

"Grandma, great grandfather, great grandmother, second grandfather and second grandmother are all sleeping in the ground. Mom and dad have been arrested. Only grandma, me and my younger brother and sister are left at home." When the little boy said this, the joy of eating the candy seemed to have dissipated a little.

"Who captured them?"

The little boy shook his head. "I don't know. The people who arrested my parents wore the same clothes as Uncle Hong. Great grandfather called them officials."

Officers and soldiers?

Why did the officers and soldiers arrest people?

Yunli was a little confused.

"Have all the people in your village been arrested?"

The little boy nodded and shook his head. "All the uncles and aunts were taken away. Many grandparents were lying on the ground. Guabao and the others were crying."

The child spoke unclearly, but Yunli understood it vaguely.

All the men and women in their prime were captured, the elderly were either injured or dead, and the children were not wanted.

It seems that it has not yet developed to the point of eating children.
