I am honest

Chapter 2

The gate of the sheriff's office opened, and a woman in a fairy dress appeared at the gate of the sheriff's office accompanied by the sheriff.

The hungry people who were waiting outside to send porridge fell to the ground and knelt down early when they saw this, and said: "Your Majesty the Sheriff!" Kowtowing desperately.

It was the first time for Bao Guchang to see a fairy at such a young age. The first feeling was that the dress she was wearing was really beautiful, and the second feeling was that the fairy was worthy of being a fairy, she would glow all over her body, and the light would not cover anything but only her face.It is said in the books that fairies are very beautiful, and when they appear, people will be astonished. This fairy covers her face. Could it be that she is the ugly fairy among fairies?

Aunt Zhou tugged at Bao Gu's sleeve and shouted, "Bao Gu, kneel down quickly! Don't offend the Sheriff."

Bao Gu quickly lifted his skirt and knelt down, still looking up at Aunt Zhou curiously.She lowered her voice and said in a very low voice: "Aunt Zhou, is it because she is ugly that this fairy is covering her face?" As soon as she finished speaking, she found that the fairy suddenly turned her head and her bright eyes were straight. Stare at her.Bao Gu was furiously stared at by the fairy, and thought: "Her ears are not so good, can she? She can hear me when I speak so softly?"

Aunt Zhou knelt down and did not dare to raise her head. She did not notice the fairy's gaze. She raised her hand and patted Baogu's back lightly, and said softly, "Don't talk nonsense, it's something that offends a fairy. There's no shame in being a fairy." Yes, even an ugly one can't be a fairy. Great, a fairy has come and we are saved."

Bao Gu muttered in a low voice: "Didn't you say that there is a drought? I heard from Sun Xiucai that the drought can swallow clouds and kill dragons. It is very powerful. To get rid of the drought, at least a tall, giant, spirit-like immortal can come to subdue it. You see This fairy has slender arms and legs. I just took a closer look at it. It wasn't she who was flying, but the sword under her feet was flying, carrying her to fly. Could this fairy be an apprentice... Hiss... Aunt Zhou, why are you pinching me, it hurts!"

Aunt Zhou shouted: "Stop talking! Ancestor!" She decisively moved her knees to the side, distanced herself from Baogu, and pretended that they were not in the same direction.

The sheriff asked everyone to stand up.

Bao Gu stood up, patted the mud on her knees, and looked at the sheriff and fairy standing at the gate of the sheriff's mansion.It has to be said that even though this fairy has an ugly face, she has a very good figure, and the flowing fairy dress on her body is really beautiful.

The county guard said loudly: "Everyone, this fairy is the fairy Yumi from Xuantianmen in Yunling Mountain, eighty thousand miles away..."

Corn Fairy!Bao Gu was instantly shocked, corn can also be a fairy?Couldn't Baogu also be a fairy?A picture of identifying relatives suddenly appeared in her mind, she stepped forward to hold the hand of the corn fairy and said, "Hi, corn, I am Baogu!" .However, the [-] Li Yunling said by the county governor is very objectionable, and it is clear that Yunling is only [-] Li.Bao Gu slandered silently in his heart, he didn't dare to really go up and make trouble, and he didn't dare to refute the words of the county sheriff.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she dare not tear down the stand of the sheriff!

The county sheriff was talking about "Fairy Yumi passed by here, and came here to investigate when she saw something strange in the sky." Suddenly, Fairy Yumi stared at a [-] or [-]-year-old girl in the crowd. She cupped her hands towards Fairy Yumi and said, "Fairy Yumi..." Wei Wei gestured towards Baogu.

Bao Gu thought: "It's broken!" He quickly shrank his neck and hid behind Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou was afraid of getting into trouble, so she took two steps away, revealing Baogu again.

A pleasant voice sounded: "I think that child is quite destined to be a fairy."

Fairy Yumi was the one who spoke, and she was still staring at Bao Gu when she spoke, everyone's eyes followed Fairy Yumi's and fell on Bao Gu, with respect in their eyes.

Bao Gu was dripping down in cold sweat!When her father was still alive, the family hired a few coolies to carry food all the year round. If any coolie deliberately went against her father, her father would be difficult to deal with in front of everyone, so he would just "praise the turning point" in such a pleasant manner. "Then clean it up hard.She lowered her head guiltily, trying to hide herself.But looking left and right, there was no other person within three feet of her, and even Aunt Zhou was far away from her.Afraid of being punished, Bao Gu bent his heart, bent his knees, knelt down, and pleaded for the people: "Corn Fairy, I am Bao Gu. Our Qingshan County has not had a drop of rain for three years, and there is no grain harvest. Countless people have starved to death. I implore you." The fairies cast spells and rain to save the people from fire and water."

"I beg the fairy to rain and save my life..."

People knelt down outside the Sheriff's Mansion, and the people who had suffered from the drought couldn't help weeping when they thought about the suffering of their families being destroyed in the past three years.

A sharp look hit Bao Gu's head, but Bao Gu, who lowered his head, didn't see him at all.

Fairy Yumi said: "I look at the celestial phenomena here, and I think there is a monster. Wait for me to subdue it and get rid of it, and you will be at ease."

Hearing how it sounded like an excuse, Baogu hurriedly said: "Corn fairy, I heard that the fairy has the ability to cast spells all over the sky to rain down the rain and cast beans into soldiers to conjure food out of thin air. Now there has been a severe drought for three years, and countless people have starved to death. Please let the fairy cast spells to bring down the rain and change some food to save people's lives. Qingshan County will be grateful to the fairy's kindness, write your deeds in the book and praise you, the corn fairy, and build a statue and incense for you."

The sheriff stared hard at Bao Gu, as if blaming Bao Gu for stealing his lines.He cupped his fists and bowed to Fairy Yumi and said, "Fairy, on behalf of the people of Limin in Qingshan County, I implore Fairy to save the common people."

The hungry people below knelt down and begged in unison.

Fairy Yumi asked: "Governor, do you want to cure the symptoms or the root cause? To cure the symptoms, I immediately invite my fellow disciples to cast spells and rain for you; to cure the root cause, I mean that I will personally subdue the monsters that have plagued this place and return the people to peace." .”

When Bao Gu heard "Please come and cast spells to rain", Bao Gu quietly realized, and thought: "It turns out that this corn fairy can't rain! It's obviously not good enough!"

The county guard and the hungry people kneeling on the ground begged Fairy Yumi to subdue the evildoer who brought disaster to Qingshan County.

Fairy Yumi said: "I'm going now!" She squeezed the sword formula and waved it in the air, and suddenly a small sword that was no bigger than a palm and emitting colorful lights appeared in front of her. A big sword with a length of seven feet and a width of one foot appeared at the bottom of Fairy Yumi's feet, and lifted her up to the sky.

Seeing that the figure of the corn fairy flying towards Yunling was getting smaller and smaller, Baogu muttered suspiciously: "Can this corn fairy with thin arms and legs beat monsters? She must be Did you escape back to Yunling Xianshan under the pretext of subduing the demon?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the figure rushing to the sky shake violently in the air, and then plunged down again without a trace.

The county guard cleared his throat and shouted to the hungry people kneeling outside the county guard's mansion: "Fairy folks, Fairy Yumi has gone to subdue the demon, Qingshan County will restore peace soon. All the folks go back and wait for Fairy Yumi to come back." Good news! Get up and leave!"

The hungry people knelt outside the sheriff's mansion and looked at the sheriff helplessly, motionless.

The sheriff said again: "Folks, let's go! Come back!"

Bao Gu lowered his head to look at the casserole in front of him, felt his stomach that was already throbbing with hunger, and stood there firmly.

The man who looked like a butler leaned over to the sheriff and whispered.The sheriff stroked his beard in a sudden realization, and said to the butler, "Go and see if the porridge is ready. Take it out when it's done." He thought of something again, turned around and waved to Baogu who was holding the casserole tightly and didn't let go. He said kindly, "Come here!"

Bao Gu looked at the Sheriff, pointed to his nose, and asked in a low voice, "Me?"

The sheriff nodded with a smile and said, "Little girl, come here."

Bao Gu quickly twisted the pot, got up and walked to the sheriff, picked up her skirt and made a blessing, and said: "Bao Gu has seen the sheriff."

The county guard looked Baogu up and down, and asked, "Can your father make the hall here?"

Bao Gu replied in a low voice: "They all passed away."

"Oh!" The sheriff sighed, and said, "It's all a natural disaster! Who else is there in the family?"

Bao Gu responded, "I'm the only one."

The sheriff asked in surprise, "You're the only one?" Obviously a bit unbelieving.

Bao Gu responded, "Yes."

The person who looked like a housekeeper interrupted: "Bao Gu, I see that you are neatly dressed and have a handsome face. If you are the only one in the family, how would you..."

Bao Gu understood what the housekeeper meant.They thought that everyone in her family starved to death. In this place where people starved to death everywhere, she was the only one left in her family who hadn't been starved to death, nor was she robbed of food by hungry people who were desperate. Looking at the situation, it is much better than the starving people around.She replied: "My father is the owner of the rice and grain shop on the street in Dongcheng Lane. He died of illness at the beginning of this year. After he died, I broke down the brick platform for weighing grain at home and found a few catties of moldy miscellaneous grains." , and pried the floor of the granary in the backyard, and also dug out the mouse holes, and found a few catties of grain in the cracks in the floor and in the mouse holes, and only then did I live to this day."

The sheriff sighed: "Oh, pitiful! I have heard about your father, he is a good man." He turned to the housekeeper and said, "Go and get some white flour steamed buns for Baogu." He said with emotion: "Baogu, good Name, food!" Turning around, he walked through the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion and left.

Bao Gu looked at the sheriff's back: "..."

After Baogu waited for a while, the butler put five buns on a plate and put them into the casserole that Baogu was carrying.

Bao Gu was so hungry that she wanted to stuff the steamed buns into her stomach right away, but she also knew that such an attitude was indecent. After she thanked everyone, she took the casserole with five big steamed buns back to Aunt Zhou next to the stone lion, and took out A steamed bun was given to Aunt Zhou who was drooling at the steamed bun, and she grabbed a steamed bun and put it in her mouth.As soon as she put the steamed buns into her mouth, she found a circle of people around her, staring at the white flour steamed buns in her hand with gleaming eyes and swallowing their saliva.

Aunt Zhou hugged her casserole in her arms, staring vigilantly at the hungry people rushing up around her, and said something vaguely with her mouth full of steamed buns.

Baogu didn't understand, but the surrounding situation made her feel that something was wrong, she swallowed the steamed bun in her mouth, and asked, "Auntie, what are you talking about..." The words fell silent, and the steamed bun in her hand that had just taken a big bite was crushed. A hand that stretched out suddenly snatched it away, and it fell into the hands of a hungry man who was so thin that he couldn't see his human appearance, and the hungry man wolfed it all down into his mouth.

Aunt Zhou was also overwhelmed by the hungry people in an instant. Immediately following Baogu, she heard a "boom" sound of porcelain breaking, and saw her casserole smashed to the ground, and the steamed buns she put in the casserole were also covered with ashes. In the next moment, it was snatched away by countless dirty and skinny hands.The steamed buns were divided into several pieces by the hungry people. The extremely hungry people snatched the crumbs of the steamed buns and immediately put them in their mouths. Several steamed buns were eaten in the blink of an eye.

Undeterred hungry people were lying on the ground looking for crumbs of steamed buns.

Sitting with her back against the stone lion, Aunt Zhou cried out, "You guys killed it these days, it was rewarded by the county magistrate, so grab it too!" Her clothes were torn and her hair was messed up. There are still a few fresh shoe prints on the dirty clothes, and several scratch marks on the skinny neck and collarbone.

Bao Gu stared at her shattered casserole with tears in her eyes, sucked in air forcefully with her mouth flattened, trying not to let herself cry!But in the end, she couldn't help howling: "My white flour steamed bun!" Tears fell down patter.Her white flour steamed buns, her casserole!She finally understood what Aunt Zhou meant in that vague sentence: "Eat quickly, don't let them take it away!" Tears!It's too late to understand!Her white flour steamed buns are gone!woo woo woo woo……
