Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 138 Don't get angry

The evening wind blew, and the green trees along the road swayed.

Shouling City.

Outside the city gate, at the corner of the city wall, there were many refugees and refugees, who seemed to have been here for a long time.

Shouling City is now closed, and it was not allowed to enter a while ago, but now it is more difficult to go through many barriers, and naturally there are more crowded people outside the city.

Gu Xiang and others walked all the way, the refugees around avoided one after another, looking at them with dodge eyes.

It is estimated that the aura of the old dog is terrifying.Or maybe Xiao Ze's bright and luxurious mink fur coat is more intimidating.

Gu Xiang got out of the car and stopped.Shouling County is just an ordinary remote small county, but it also has a long history. Under the sunshine of the autumn sunset, there is some old paper piles in the mottled old days.

Her eyes fell on the patterns and characters carved on the city wall, including a few small poems, such as "Sigh with a sword in the sky, climb the ancient city in the vastness", some of the handwriting is clumsy, and some of them are quite good at calligraphy.

She smiled unconsciously, and suddenly felt a very special sense of familiarity, and felt a little helpless.

Some things are really the same in ancient and modern times. For example, when tourists go to tourist attractions, they especially like to engrave a word or something.

When Gu Xiang was reborn, this kind of phenomenon was rare, but it still happened.

It would be fine if the inscriptions were so beautiful, it might become a scene of this ancient city in the future, but if the person who wrote the inscriptions insisted on showing them, it would be very unpleasant.

Gu Xiang was thinking back then, when suddenly a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy appeared behind him, wearing a slightly larger hat with a long brim, the clothes were clean and made of better material, but it didn't fit a little bit, and his eyes were quite straight. pretty look.

"Little lady, do you two want to go to the city?"

Gu Xiang turned back and nodded: "Yes."

"I have access."

The young man furtively glanced left and right, stretched out his hand and gestured, "It only costs fifty cash per person, so you can go in safely, and eighty cash in and out, what do you think?"

Gu Xiang was suddenly a little surprised: "I heard that Shouling has recently closed the city, and the investigation is very strict?"

After all, the thieves are all 'soldiers approaching the city'. Recently, spies from all walks of life have been frantically active. The magistrate of the county government is not there. The county captain Zhou knows the military better than the magistrate. He has caught dozens of spies for several days in a row. In terms of security and defense, it is not good. Hard work.

The young boy smiled and said: "No matter how strict the management is, my young master, I am a native of the country, and there are always some small roads that the government doesn't know about...Little lady, I am willing to come here and say these things to you because of your kindness. You see Look, there are so many people who want to enter the city, who do I talk to?"

Gu Xiang blinked, and just about to refuse, his eyes paused slightly, when he saw the young boy turned around and waved, and said with a smile: "Feng Sixth Brother, are you going to Miss Sun again? You really are, Miss Sun has said it several times If you want to redeem yourself and come out with you, why are you still reserved?"

A young man in the uniform of a yamen servant suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, and waved his hands repeatedly: "Let's go first, let's go first."

While talking, he trotted along the wall, slipping further and further away.

"Nah, that's Sixth Brother Feng. He works at the city gate. He has a close relationship with me. It's a trivial matter to secretly open the city gate for us at night."

The young man has beautiful eyebrows and gentle eyes, "My name is Su San, why don't you go and find out, I, Su San, have a little reputation in Shouling, how about it? Do you want to come with me?"

Gu Xiang was surprised. He didn't expect that the government servants in Shouling County also colluded with outsiders to earn money from passers-by.I don't know if Zhou Xianwei and others know?

She was suddenly wary.

The plot of the original book did not mention Shou Ling's fate, but the brave army rebelled and did not end well in the end, maybe something happened to Shou Ling as well?
Gu Xiang has been very concerned about these safety-related matters recently. If someone enters the county through these loopholes and stirs up wind and rain, it may really threaten the safety of the entire county.

The only county town that is very close to the village is Shouling. If there is a war here, let alone a long time, even if it is only for a few months, the village will definitely be severely damaged.

After thinking for a while, Gu Xiang changed his mind and said with a smile, "Is it really safe?"

Su San patted her chest and promised: "But you have to pay first, you can inquire about it. I, Su San, have such rules."

Gu Xiang called the old dog over and took out the money to give to the child: "We are four people, [-] Wen each, how about sending us in safely and then sending us out again?"

"Come on, don't worry, I promise to make sure arrangements for you."

Su San took the money, lowered her voice, and said mysteriously: "Just tonight, on the second watch, you are still here, you guys come here quietly, don't disturb others."

The old dog's eyelids trembled slightly.

Wang Ermu opened his mouth, but the old dog grabbed him and shut his mouth obediently.

Xiao Ze scratched his head, looked left and right, but didn't make a sound.He firmly remembered one thing at this time, the purpose of following was to find his father, before he found his father, and before he was sure that his father was safe, Miss Gu was his bodhisattva, he just obeyed orders.

Gu Xiang responded with a smile, thinking about observing whether the security of the county is complete, so he didn't go into the city, and walked around a few times.

Looking at the past along the way, it turned out that Shouling County was in short supply of food.

Every day the county government releases a batch of cheap grain, but the quantity is very limited.

According to regulations, those grain stores must also release cheap grain, but it is very difficult to buy.

Most of the refugees are yellow and thin, especially the elderly and children, relying on the officials of the county government to give each person two bowls of thin porridge every day, which can count the grains of rice, and a throat-sucking Caiwowo barely survives. .

Gu Xiang knew in his heart that this is still a small Shouling County, surrounded by mountainous areas, and the transportation is inconvenient, otherwise, this little porridge might attract a large number of refugees to gather.

Every time there is a disaster year or a famine year, the biggest headache for the governments in various places is the resettlement of the victims. No official is willing to let the refugees go to their own territory.

Wangzhixian and Zhouxianwei in Shouling County are good and responsible officials. Although refugees are not allowed to enter the city, they still pay attention to their survival.

Now it seems that these refugees are not at the critical moment of life and death, so they should not cause too much trouble.

Gu Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief.

In such an environment, no matter how much Gu Xiang wanted some delicious food, she didn't dare to give porridge for a while. No matter how abundant the dry food she brought, it was not enough for so many people to grab it. Delicious snacks, dry food, and a short rest after eating, until the second watch, she put on her clothes and took the old dog, Xiao Ze, and led Wang Ermu to the edge of the city quietly.

The cold wind rustled, and Gu Xiang's hair was blown a little messy.

First class, second class, third class.

Waited until after the third watch.

Gu Xiang: "..."

The old dog and Xiao Ze were full of solemn faces, watching their noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, and hearts, and neither of them felt that there was any problem in waiting for so long.

Gu Xiang sighed: "Go back."

Didn't he just meet a little liar?It's okay, don't be angry.
