Plane Supermarket
Chapter 32
For several months in a row, there were only refugees running from north to south, and it was rare to see refugees going from south to north.
When Lin You returned to the north this time, he was once again shocked by the tragic situation in the world.
They walked all the way, but they didn't see many living people, only empty villages. When they opened the dilapidated doors, the houses were full of cobwebs and dust. The land seemed to be "dead".
The dry and barren fields, the dilapidated houses, and the occasional dead bones on the road, it seems that this is not the world, but hell.
It is not that the imperial court did not send people to suppress disasters, but such natural disasters are obviously beyond human power.
What's more, the north can't be saved, but the south is not enjoying peace through singing and dancing. Countless local tyrants rose up to rebel against the imperial court.
The imperial court is too busy to take care of itself, how can it manage the north?
Lin You thought of his father, the prefect of Anyang City, who had been working hard every day since the influx of refugees. The refugees were poor, but they could only let in a small half of the city. He watched countless refugees guard the city gate and starve to death.
Refugees cannot be released, how can they be raised after they are released?
With so many people, how much food and troops are needed?
Anyang City doesn't have that much food!Not so many soldiers!Let refugees into the city, more people will die.
Lin You didn't dare to recall that scene, nor what his father said.
He still remembers asking his father why he didn't let the refugees into the city, it was a living life!There are men and women, old and young, they trekked long distances, lost countless lives and endured so much suffering, before they finally came to Anyang City, where they thought they could live and start a new life.
But his father just let him kneel, and he knelt for a whole day, his legs were numb as if they were no longer his own.
Only then did his father say to him: "Your father is not a god and Buddha, so he can't save everyone!"
"I ask you, it's easy to let them in, and then?"
"How do you feed them? If you don't feed them, how will they live? It's either robbing or stealing. If they want to survive, the people in the city must also survive!"
"Even if I disperse all my wealth, how many people can I save?"
Lin You was annoyed at the time, thinking that his father was evasive, so he stood by and watched in order not to cause trouble: "How many families in the city do not have food in stock? The food they store can save tens of thousands of people! Their food and family property are all taken from the people. Shouldn't it be used for the people?!"
The father only looked at him with the eyes of a fool: "Will they be willing to give out the food? Even if they are willing to take it back ten thousand steps, this food is enough for a few days? What happens after eating?"
"It is not food that is needed to feed refugees, but land! It is to give them something to do!"
"Besides, your father and I have to look at the faces of everyone." My father smiled bitterly, "Do you think I am a prefect? Do you think my words are so effective? I have only been here for a few years, and those people are in Anyang City. How many more years did you stay?"
"The strong dragon still doesn't overwhelm the local snake, do your father and I look like a strong dragon?"
That's why Lin You came here. He didn't care about the chaotic situation or what happened to the court. He came here this time to buy food.
Buy food that can keep people alive.
Even if the refugees can't be put into the city, at least they can give them porridge outside the city so that they... won't have to change their sons to eat.
But he wasn't sure he could find the fairy cave.
He remembered the way, and what he was worried about was that the immortal had already left and changed places.
"Even if we send the food back safely, what's the use?" Cousin Gao Sheng disapproved of the gods. It's not that he doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but he only believes in them when he asks for them, and he doesn't believe in them when he has nothing to ask for. "We just 200 How many people can be escorted back? If there are too many, I can’t protect them.”
Lin You's complexion was not very good-looking. Goldman Sachs had poured cold water on him all the way: "How can you give up lightly when you have never done anything before? Cousin, stop talking."
Goldman Sachs was not annoyed either, he knew that his cousin had a naive heart, after so many years of reading, he had engraved the principles of saints and sages into his bones, even though he teased him, he was not without admiration.
How many scholars have sharpened their heads and wanted to get into the court, talking about the principles of sages and sages, but those principles are only their weapons to open the way, but not the foundation of their standing. How many people in the court form cliques for personal gain?How many people still remember the truth in the book?
On the other hand, Lin You, who had already crossed the mountain of corpses and sea of blood and returned to Anyang City, dared to plead for his life and take another escape route.
When Goldman Sachs came, he issued a military order, and he would bring his cousin who was not working properly, or he would not be alone if something happened to his cousin.
"That's the forest!" Lin You pointed to the familiar forest not far away, and shouted excitedly, "The immortal is in it!"
Goldman Sachs wondered: "Shouldn't it be on the mountain?"
Don't all gods like to run to the top of the mountain?
Lin You only felt that his cousin was full of doubts. They fought all the way, but Lin You really didn't want to fight any more, so he rode his horse into the forest.
Goldman Sachs had no choice but to lead people to follow.
After entering the forest, even if he rides a horse, it will take several days to get to the fairy cave. Lin You is not in a hurry. Dry food doesn't complain either.
"It's much better than when I left. Before I met a fairy, there was not enough dry food." Lin You drank his saliva, "Hey, I got sick again, and I was hot, hungry and thirsty every day."
Goldman Sachs frowned: "Isn't someone escorting you?"
Lin You waved his hand: "Don't blame them, food is tight on me, they are hungrier than me."
"Father and mother are looking for people in the south. Southerners don't know that the north is already like this now."
They walked for another three days, and finally came to an open space led by Lin You.
This place seems to have been artificially trimmed, but if you look closely, you can't see any traces of carving, as if there was a place in the woods where no trees grew.
With just one glance, Goldman was overwhelmed by the square house not far away.
This house has no eaves and blue tiles, and it is a whole, like a huge boulder that has been hollowed out by someone, and the chopping is extremely neat, without a single dent or protrusion, even the best craftsman today can't do it.
If a house is made of stone, it is also polished into stone bricks. No matter how big the stone bricks are, they cannot be so natural.
Not to mention the strange plaque, I don't know how much good iron will be consumed.
"The words on the plaque?" Goldman Sachs felt a little familiar.
Lin You: "It should be Xianwen. When I first came back, I also thought it was Yawen who lacked arms and legs."
Goldman Sachs believed it in his heart, so he stopped talking to avoid embarrassment.
·
When Ye Zhou heard the sound of people and carriages, he was already ready to welcome the people who came - of course he was ready to rush.
As soon as those voices were heard, it was clear that they were not made by refugees.
When the guests come, there are wines, when the enemies come, there are pistols.
Ye Zhou didn't go out by himself, but asked Cao Erniang and Sarah to go out and have a look.
After getting the notification from Ye Zhou, Cao Erniang walked to the supermarket door with Sarah, and behind them were Wu Yan and others hiding in the shadows.
"It's Mr. Lin." Cao'erniang let go of her worries.
She said to Sarah: "Mr. Lin has been here before, and he changed a lot of things before leaving!"
Although she was afraid of Lin You, she didn't hate him.
Besides, the fact that the immortal is willing to exchange things for Lin You means that Lin You is a good person.
"Aunt Li!" Lin You saw that Cao Erniang was also very kind. Although he was also taken aback by Sarah, after thinking about it, he thought it was nothing surprising. There were still some people in Anyang City.
Cao Erniang smiled and said, "Young Master Lin."
Lin You poked his head to look into the supermarket: "Is the immortal here?"
Before Caoerniang could respond, she heard the voice of a fairy coming from the supermarket.
"Call him in."
Only then did Cao Erniang say, "Please, Young Master Lin."
Lin You turned around and said to Gao Sheng: "Cousin, you wait for me here, don't move around at will."
Gao Sheng also wanted to go in, so he asked Cao Erniang: "Lin You is my cousin, can I go in with him?"
Cao Erniang turned cold: "Since the immortal only called one, then only one can enter."
Goldman Sachs glanced at Lin You, hoping that his cousin could speak for him.
But Lin You "turned his heart like an arrow", so he really didn't notice his cousin's "lingering eyes", and smiled like a heartless fool: "Cousin, I'll go back as soon as I go!"
Then he rushed into the supermarket like a swallow falling into the forest.
The moment he walked into the supermarket, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. There was a refreshing fragrance in the supermarket, not flowers or incense, and he couldn't help but sigh.
When Cao Erniang sent Lin You into the lounge, Ye Zhou was almost taken aback by the dark guy in front of him when he opened the door.
When he saw Lin You last time, Lin You was still a standard sick nobleman with red lips and white teeth, but this time he saw that he was not only dark but also strong, and he was dressed more like an ordinary farmer.
"Immortal!" Lin You lifted up the hem of the invisible clothes subconsciously, and knelt down to Ye Zhou with a "plop".
Ye Zhou, who was already used to kneeling, didn't fluctuate in his heart: "Get up, you don't need to kneel."
Lin You got up from the ground, cupped his hands and said, "I can't repay the immortal for saving my life! This time I came here for the tens of thousands of refugees outside Anyang City. human life."
Ye Zhou: "..."
How do you listen to the meaning of this, if there is nothing to report, then don't report?
Fortunately, Lin You's next sentence was: "This time, Lin brought some things in exchange."
Ye Zhou was in a good mood, and Lin You poured cold water on him again.
Lin You: "Lin knows that mortal gold and silver are no different from dung to immortals, so he decided not to bring those vulgar things."
Ye Zhou's face was expressionless, his heart was already numb: "..."
No, I'm just a layman, I just want to make money, I'll take as much gold and silver as you give me, I don't care if it's dung or not!
Playing tricks is indeed a double-edged sword!
Ye Zhou seemed to be on a roller coaster, and his heart couldn't bear it.
Great joy and great sorrow, sorrow and joy again.
I don't know what "otherworldly" things Lin You brought in exchange.
It's just that this time Lin You didn't even wear good clothes, he didn't wear a crown, and his belt was just a cloth belt, so he couldn't even take off his clothes.
Hey!
Is he here to repay his favor, or to take revenge?
When Lin You returned to the north this time, he was once again shocked by the tragic situation in the world.
They walked all the way, but they didn't see many living people, only empty villages. When they opened the dilapidated doors, the houses were full of cobwebs and dust. The land seemed to be "dead".
