After I became a maid, I relied on fortune-telling to support the whole family of the abandoned prin

Xie Fanjin's face turned pale. If these people continued like this, then there would be no hope.

Something flashed in her eyes. While no one was paying attention, she took out a talisman and threw it towards the group. She immediately chanted the thunder incantation: "Yuqing's order, bring down the thunder. Thunder roars from the sky, follow my summons..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the dark clouds above his head suddenly flashed with lightning and thunder, and the lightning struck the group of refugees who were sharing human flesh. In just a moment, all the refugees in that group were knocked down.

Their bodies were covered in black, and they rolled on the ground in pain, groaning non-stop.

Xiao Yanxi glanced around, and someone immediately jumped out: "You guys are eating human flesh, even God can't stand it, you deserve to be struck by lightning, if it doesn't kill you, that's already a light punishment!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many victims were filled with righteous indignation and started cursing at those people.

The men who had been thrown into the boiling water pot earlier were now covered in blisters, their limbs gnawed to a bloody pulp. They wailed in pain, shouting, "I was wrong! I will never eat human flesh again..."

The refugees who were struck by lightning struggled to get up from the ground, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly: "I won't dare to do it again... I won't dare to do it again..."

"I was wrong... I will never eat human flesh again..."

Seeing this, the people at the door were a little confused. What happened in such a short time?

Xiao Liuzi asked Cheng Gang in bewilderment, "Brother, the rain was about to stop. There wasn't any thunder before, so why did it suddenly start flashing and thundering?"

Cheng Gang looked at Xiao Liuzi with a complicated expression and narrowed his eyes. Why does this scene look familiar?

"When you were struck by lightning, were you the same as them?"

Xiao Liuzi's face turned pale. He didn't dare to recall the past and said quickly, "Big... Big Brother... Let's talk about something else..."

Cheng Gang glared at Xiao Liuzi and said, "Coward."

He looked in the direction of Xiao Yanxi, feeling that something was wrong.

Xiao Yanxi glanced at Xie Fanjin, then said to the refugees, "Find a way to get some pots and firewood."

Someone immediately shouted: "I have a pot, I have a pot at home, but I don't have rice..."

After the man finished speaking, he went to get his own iron pot.

"I know where there's some dry wood!"

Soon, the pot and firewood arrived.

Cheng Gang looked at Xiao Yanxi with a dark face: "Mr. Xiao, you are in exile, do you still need disaster relief?"

Xie Fanjin said, "Please only give us half an incense stick of time."

As Xie Fanjin spoke, he helped Xiao Yanxi stand on a broken table.

She cleared her throat and spoke to the victims around her: "Fellow villagers, we are deeply saddened by the flood in your hometown, but it has already happened. The most important thing you should do now is to find a way to survive!"

"It's easy to say, but now we don't even have a bite to eat, how can we survive?" Someone leaned against the wall, put his hands in his sleeves, and spoke unhappily.

Xie Fanjin's face was not good: "There is a saying that goes, 'help those in need but not those in poverty.' There is no such thing as a free lunch, and pie in the sky. Your experience is indeed worthy of many people's sympathy, but this is not a reason for you to cook and eat human flesh, because everyone is made of flesh and blood and raised by their parents!

No one will give you food and silver for free. If you wait for others to give you alms, even if you don't starve to death, you will never be able to hold your head up high and be looked down upon for the rest of your life!"

When Xie Fanjin said this, everyone looked at her silently and seriously.

"Although there was a flood in Zhongzhou, there must be some places that were not affected. What are you going to do?"

Someone snorted coldly: "What can we do? Of course, we can rob if we can, and steal if we can..."

Before he finished speaking, Bingyi pointed the stick in his hand at the talkative person. With a little force, blood appeared on the person's body. He was immediately scared.

Xie Fanjin continued, "What you should do is not to steal other people's money, but to cooperate with them!"

Everyone was in chaos: "Cooperation, how to cooperate?"

"We have nothing, so what can we cooperate with?"

Xie Fanjin took a breath and continued, "Think about what you can do and what you know how to do. Those who can work should work hard, and those who have skills should use their skills. Don't just go and rob farmers when you see them. Otherwise, they will definitely stay away from you!

If you are in poor health, find a place nearby to settle down. If you are in good health and can walk far, you can go to Qinzhou or Wanzhou to make a living. It is very annoying that you just keep asking others for food. You must show your ability to make a living.

You must be sincere and follow the rules. Don't act like a starving ghost or a robber. That way, people won't stay away from you or kick you when you're down. You'll definitely be able to make a living!"

To be honest, Xie Fanjin's words were unpleasant to hear.

Even though it sounds harsh, she makes sense.

Xie Fanjin had almost finished speaking, so he patted Xiao Yanxi on the shoulder.

Xiao Yanxi could only bite the bullet and climb onto Xie Fanjin's tattered table. "I heard that Zhongzhou, Qinzhou, and Wanzhou all have porridge stalls near the city gates heading towards Bingzhou. It would be great if you could find a job to make a living. If not, you can always eat a bowl of thin porridge to get by. I should remind you that a bowl of thin porridge is not tasty either. It contains rice bran and loess, so you'd better find a job or a place to stay as soon as possible."

With the three words "I heard", Xiao Yanxi temporarily excluded himself because he was now in exile. If others knew that his Eastern Palace was raided and he had money to help the victims, they would definitely not let him go.

Everyone was excited after hearing this: "Great, we can survive!"

"As long as I have something to eat, I will definitely find a job to make a living, and we will definitely live a good life!"

Xie Fanjin clapped his hands and cleared his throat. "I repeat, you must obey the rules and be polite. Don't rob, don't beg, and don't be annoying. Otherwise, even if you enter the city, you will be kicked out at best, and lose your life at worst!"

"We understand, we will definitely abide by the rules!"

"As long as we're not starving to death, we definitely won't steal or rob!"

Xie Fanjin nodded and looked at Bingyi, who took out a few bags of miscellaneous rice from the carriage.

Then several people immediately came forward to help, and they looked at Bingyi and understood each other tacitly.

Xie Fanjin took out a few more bags of herbs: "These are for treating colds... These are for treating spleen and stomach discomfort... They are all marked."

Xie Fanjin took the pulse of the child in the woman's arms and then prescribed some medicine.

Cheng Gang grinned and glanced sideways at Wang Tiezhu.

Wang Tiezhu's face darkened as he struck the gong several times: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, everyone, get moving!"

If they don't leave now, Xie Fanjin and Xiao Yanxi won't know how to show up. Now these people only remember these two people and don't remember the emperor of Dongling Kingdom at all. This is not a good thing.

Xie Fanjin snatched the gong from Wang Tiezhu's hand and struck it hard: "I repeat again, don't act like a bandit or a beggar. We must have our own backbone and our own dignity. Clothes make the man, and we must dress neatly and pay attention to hygiene. We must not stink so much that we vomit when others get close to us. When others are in trouble, lend a hand. When you are in trouble yourself, others can also lend a hand to you... cough cough cough..."

Xie Fanjin waved her hands helplessly. Now that she had said this, if these people could listen to her, then they would listen. If they didn't, there was nothing she could do about it and they could curse her behind her back.

She tiredly tossed the gong in her hand to Wang Tiezhu, then called out to Mrs. Chen San and Jin and the others who were busy, "Okay, let's go. Let them handle the rest."

Some people saw Xie Fanjin and his group heading towards Zhongzhou and quickly asked, "Zhongzhou is flooded and devastating. Why are you heading that way?"

"Yeah, yeah, you're courting death, aren't you? I don't think you're stupid!"

Xie Fanjin no longer had the energy to say more.

Jin said, "We are going to be exiled to Jinsha Island. I heard that there is no grass growing on Jinsha Island, and it will be difficult to survive there. But we have not given up. You must be strong too. Life will definitely get better."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people burst into tears.
