nine thousand years old

Chapter 81 Qingzhou
Guanlong is located in the east of Dazhou, about a thousand miles away from Chang'an City. Because of the urgency of the situation, Su Hanyun ordered Lu Xingshu to select and transfer the East Factory personnel on his own, and he went first with Shang Tianyin.

They rode fast all the way, and put on the best horses at post stations in various places in the middle. About three days later, they appeared on the border of Guanlong.

At first glance, the vast expanse of wilderness is covered with withered yellow. Originally, it was the golden autumn season, when everything was harvested. As a result, all the ground was dry and cracked. Even the grass and trees withered to death. The bark has been broken off, apparently used as food by the hungry victims.

On the way, they also encountered several waves of fleeing people. Those who were able to escape from Guanlong and came out with the confidence were mostly people with family backgrounds. The journey was long and they could prepare some food for them. Going to other cities, even so, there are still many corpses on the road.

Those corpses have long been shriveled and skinny. Occasionally, when passing through the mountains and forests, you can see beasts like wolves biting. The maid Bai Yingying who accompanied Su Hanyun was extremely uncomfortable with these scenes and vomited several times on the way.

It was noon, and the sun in the sky was as fierce as a summer day, scorching people with dazzling light, and a trace of smoke could be faintly seen rising from the ground.

Su Hanyun sat cross-legged in the carriage, meditating to adjust his breath, Bai Yingying packed firewood and the like for cooking, and Shang Tianyin guarded the carriage to prevent anyone from disturbing him. He dared not relax. Both groups of bandits were extremely hungry, and came to snatch food regardless of life or death.

"Shang Tianyin, come here!"

After a while, Su Hanyun finished adjusting his breath, opened his eyes, his eyes flickered slightly, and called Shang Tianyin to him, who bowed and said,

"My lord, what are your orders?"

"How is the situation in Qingzhou?"

Su Hanyun is mild and temperate.

"Return to the Governor!"

Shang Tianyin leaned in front of the carriage, lowered his body even more, and said in a low voice,
"The spies from Qingzhou sent news that the White Lotus Sect has looted all the silver and grain from the government office in Qingzhou, and left Qingzhou with their troops, temporarily hiding on Mopan Mountain in the southeast of Qingzhou. The next move is not clear, but Our spies have lurked in and stared at them!"

"No action can escape our eyeliner!"

"kindness!"

Su Hanyun nodded, glanced at Shang Tianyin, with a hint of inexplicable meaning in his eyes, and asked again,

"There should be quite a few refugees in Qingzhou now. After all, it is impossible for everyone to join the White Lotus Sect, and they dare not recruit so many people. Our family asked you to send someone to bring food to help. How effective is it?"

"This one……"

Shang Tianyin frowned, with a look of grief on his face, then knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said in a low voice,

"This subordinate is trying to report this matter to the Governor!"

"Although the Fengyu Tower allocated some food, it was a drop in the bucket, and some of it was taken away by the White Lotus Sect, so..."

"It's not very useful for disasters!"

"But Governor, please rest assured, Fengyulou is trying every means to help the victims. The faction that belongs to us over there, the Blood Wolf Gang, also took out their private savings one after another, and we will tide over the difficulties together with the victims..."

Su Hanyun stared at Shang Tianyin, his pupils shrank slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,
"You did a great job!"

"The blood wolf gang is also good. If everything is true, our family will reward you for your merits afterwards!"

"Thank you Lord!"

The corner of Shang Tianyin's mouth twitched, and an imperceptible smile appeared on his face.

"Hmph, you don't need to thank our family. Our family has always been rewarded and punished. You deserve it if you do a good job!"

Su Hanyun smiled faintly, then pulled down the curtain of the carriage, and said,
"Tell Bai Yingying, stop cooking, it's still a day away from Qingzhou, let's hurry up and arrive before tonight!"

"This……"

Shang Tianyin's face was in a daze for a moment, a trace of imperceptible panic surged, and he said hastily,

"It's a day's journey. I'm afraid it's a bit urgent to rush over in such a hurry. You've traveled a long distance, and your health may..."

"Our family said we will arrive tonight, so we will arrive tonight!"

Su Hanyun snorted coldly, and stopped talking. The atmosphere around the carriage seemed to become a little depressing. Shang Tianyin's heart beat faster due to the coercion, and there was a trace of sweat on his back, but he didn't dare to disobey Su Hanyun's wishes. Thinking about it, I hurried to arrange it.

Not long after, everything was settled, Shang Tianyin found an excuse to get out of Su Hanyun's sight, and released a carrier pigeon with a small roll of paper on the carrier pigeon's ankle, and then he returned to Su Hanyun , waving the whip!
drive!
The sound of horseshoes sounded, and a layer of dust rolled on the ground, and the three of them galloped towards Qingzhou.

In a blink of an eye, it was evening, the setting sun was slanting to the west, and Huoshaoyun crossed the sky with the color of blood, and the whole Qingzhou city was filled with a layer of blush, with a bleak and hot atmosphere spreading in the city, making this The scene was a little more bleak.

The White Lotus Sect was rampant, coupled with the drought, the entire Qingzhou city looked messy and dilapidated, and there were only a few pedestrians in ragged clothes, yellow and emaciated faces on the road, either dragging their tired and weak bodies back home, or slumped on the ground, weak and full of energy. Eyes closed in despair.

There is desolation and despair everywhere.

"The blood wolf gang has started to distribute food, everyone go!"

A hoarse voice came from the end of the street. Following the sound, a thin figure of a woman with disheveled hair was waving at people. The hungry people glanced at the woman, and there was a tinge of excitement on their faces. anger.

"Those guys from the Blood Wolf gang eat people without spitting out their bones, everyone, don't go there!"

"My poor daughter is only 15 years old. These beasts bought my daughter with a bag of rice. Two days ago, I saw my daughter's body being carried out...they are not human!"

"I... my wife was also replaced by them. They said they arranged to work for a rich family, but it was a lie. My wife sneaked out and was almost beaten to death... They forced her into prostitution..."

"This group of people is not sincerely giving charity at all..."

Someone got up and roared with remorse on his face, and when the other people heard these words, they looked at the woman with even more disgust. This woman must also be with the blood wolf gang Those bastards, did those despicable things, that's why...

"Why didn't you talk when the food was exchanged?"

The woman noticed people's eyes and heard people's voices full of resentment. A trace of disdain appeared on her slightly sallow face, and she hummed,

"In these days, it's good if someone is willing to give you food. Do you still want it for free? You are not so naive, are you?"

"The blood wolf gang also needs money to raise the food. Where does their money come from? Did it fall from the sky?"

"If you don't pull it down, then you will starve to death!"

"The White Lotus Sect took away all the food waiting for me in the city, and the court didn't distribute the food. My mother will see how you survive!"

After finishing speaking, the woman turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, there was a loud and struggling cry from the end of the street. Everyone turned their heads and saw a young man with a haggard face dragging a woman towards her. , ran and shouted,

"Don't go, I'll go, I'll go!"

"Let me go, I'd rather starve to death than go, you heartless!"

The woman being dragged was quite pretty, but now she was full of anger, pulling the man, scratching his face continuously, and shouting hoarsely.

"Stinky bitch, I sold all my brothers to the palace to marry you. What's wrong with asking you to exchange a bag of grain now? Don't fucking talk nonsense, if you dare to talk too much, I will slap you to death!"

"Su, you are not human!"

"Damn, these days, I can't live anymore, and there are so many nonsense."

The young man slapped the woman's face, the woman's face was covered with blood, and she wanted to talk again, but the man threw it directly to two gangsters wearing blood wolf gang uniforms, and then he smiled obsequiously,

"This girl is given to you, where can I get the food?"

"follow me!"

The woman in charge of distributing food glanced at the man, her brows flashed with disdain, she twisted her waist and walked towards the end of the street.

"A sin..."

"God doesn't let people live..."

The people on the street looked at this scene with increasingly desperate expressions on their faces...
