Chapter 318 Earthquake
Li Jun came back in the evening, jumped off the bullock cart, sneezed with his hands in his hands, and said confidently to Song Huiyue, "Give way."

Song Huiyue moved her butt, gave up the stool in front of the stove, and sat down beside Yin Xiao.

She tucked her hands into her sleeves as soon as she was away from the fire.

Li Jun stretched out both hands, roasting and rubbing together: "It's so cold, have you eaten?"

"Eat." Song Huiyue replied.

"What to eat?"

"I ate a fart."

Song Huiyue's vulgarity and directness made Li Jun dumbfounded. He remembered that he was not only short of food, but also short of water, and he, the big brother, obviously didn't think carefully, came back too late, and his mouth was full of oil, his face was red, but They didn't even bring a piece of cake to the two of them.

He looked at Song Huiyue, and always felt that Song Huiyue was grinning, wanting to bite off a piece of his meat.

Yin Xiao remained silent as always, but if Song Huiyue wanted to eat him, Yin Xiao might stretch out his knife to help slice the meat.

He looked away silently, and thought for a moment: "There are refugees on the roadside, so we can't leave at night. We will go to the city to buy food tomorrow morning. My friend... can't explain it in a single word."

His friend is naturally reliable, but this friend loves to take concubines. After twenty years of spreading branches and leaves, the friend's family has already become lively with dozens of people.

There were a lot of people, so he decided not to bring Song Huiyue there, but to lend a sum of money and settle them slowly.

After one night, Li Jun, the incompetent big brother, rented the ox cart again, intending to take the two younger ones into the city.

However, in just one night, the situation changed. The refugees gathered outside the city, the city gate was closed tightly, and there were Xiang troops stationed under the city gate, looking sternly at the people in the shape of a dove, and forbidding them to enter the city.

If it is not a refugee who enters the city, he must take out the household stickers for inspection before entering the city.

Li Jun turned to Song Huiyue who was sitting on the bullock cart, who was as cold as a little iceman, and said, "Be careful, I'll go and have a look."

Song Huiyue nodded and looked up at the city wall.

The city gate of Dingzhou is heavily guarded, and the city wall is made of castings that are almost the same as those in Kyoto. The bottom is built with large stones, and the top is made of bricks and soil.

This is the South City Gate, and even so, the North City Gate is even more impenetrable.

Li Jun inquired for a while, then returned to the ox cart: "Porridge will be delivered tomorrow, twice a day, the city will not be able to enter for the time being, let's deal with today first."

He drove the ox cart around for a long time, spent a lot of money in exchange for some food and drink, and returned to Cang County.

Another day passed like this, and at night, on the streets outside Cang County, someone suddenly shouted loudly: "There is water! There is water! Water is coming out of the square well!"

In less than a moment, the lights came on one after another, and many people rushed out, wanting to see what happened.

Li Jun put on his clothes and got up, muttering: "It's not raining, where does the water come from?"

Song Huiyue was already fully dressed, standing by the door, looking out.

"Where's your tail?" Li Jun walked over.

Song Huiyue stretched out her hand and pointed: "I went to see Fangjing."

The square well was not far away, and bursts of cheers were erupting at this moment. You didn't need to look to know that water really came out of it. It was probably too noisy, and the dogs nearby suddenly barked together.

When the dog barked, the cat barked as if its fur had exploded, and the sound of birds came from afar.

Song Huiyue suddenly grabbed Li Jun and ran out. As soon as he stepped out of the door, he heard a booming sound, like thunder, and Yin Xiao flew from the side of the square well, and grabbed Song Huiyue hand, pulled her out together with Li Jun.

Dilong turned around.

The landslides and the ground cracked in an instant, the animals frightened away, the roof tiles fell, the city walls collapsed, the originally smooth roads were sunken into ditches, the water gushed and the sand overflowed, the government offices and private houses collapsed, and the ten houses collapsed. Half of it, the entire Cang County was overturned into ruins.

Fifteen minutes ago, people in the county were still immersed in the great joy of well water gushing out, thinking that the drought was over. No one thought that after a quarter of an hour, the county was left with nothing but lifelessness.

The death was complete, the corpses were hidden and pressed in various places, the dog stopped barking, the cat stopped barking, and the water stopped gushing out.

The county town became dead silent, and the living people were disheveled and terrified, sitting or standing, holding back their cries, all in a state of panic—they didn't know whether the earthquake was the end or just the beginning.

Everyone there tremblingly stood in the darkness without a ray of light, their faces covered with dust.

The moon seemed to have been shaken, everything seemed blurry, and everything I saw in my eyes was indistinct and unreal.

Yin Xiao's hands and feet were cold, and he tentatively looked at the figure next to him. The blood in his body was almost frozen, and he was even more frozen at this moment. He bit the tip of his tongue, trying to keep himself awake, so as not to fall into a nightmare again go.

At this moment, Song Huiyue stood in the darkness, groping for Yin Xiao's hand: "Don't be afraid."

She held her hand tightly: "Yin Xiao, don't be afraid, I'm here."

She took a step in the direction of Yin Xiao, one side of her body approached Yin Xiao, trying to warm him with her own body, and said softly, "I'm here!"

Yin Xiao moved her fingers, exhaled, and firmly grasped Song Huiyue's hand: "My lady, I'm not afraid."

"Yes, don't be afraid." Song Huiyue said firmly.

Li Jun coughed, spit out a big mouthful of loess, and approached the voice sadly: "I'm afraid."

No one answered him, because everyone was afraid, it was too cold outside the house, everyone got up anxiously, and they didn't have many clothes to keep out the cold, so they could only snuggle together to keep warm.

Li Jun leaned firmly against Yin Xiao, and Yin Xiao held Song Huiyue tightly. Song Huiyue's cold teeth chattered and her body trembled. It's just that the night is long, and it won't be short because everyone is suffering.

"Tomorrow the gates of Dingzhou City will definitely be opened." Li Jun sat in the dark, suffering from hunger and cold, "We'd better go find my friend."

At this moment, only the words "eating and clothing" remained in his mind.

After one night, the injured people turned into the same cold corpses in the cold night. A ray of dawn pierced through the clouds and illuminated the sky and the earth. Only then did everyone see the tragic image of corpses strewn all over the ground in front of them.

Song Huiyue moved her hands and feet, let go of Yin Xiao, and licked her lips - she wanted to drink water.

Li Jun let out a long breath, knowing that he was alive again.

He led Song Huiyue and Yin Xiao into Dingzhou City in disgrace among thousands of homeless refugees.

The city gate of Dingzhou was also damaged, and the city was in chaos. The damage situation was much better than that of the surrounding counties. He found the home of his friend He Jianghuai, looked at the door plaque that had fallen on the ground, and knocked on the door—the door was broken. Halfway through, the situation inside can be seen at a glance.

The Yin of the He family was flourishing and the Yang was declining. The He Jianghuai man stood tall and burly in the front yard, with his legs spread apart, holding a whip, standing aggressively among a group of young women. The group of women seemed to be about the same age, but Some are called Dad, some are called Master, which makes people confused.

He Jianghuai was so annoyed that he flicked his horsewhip and shouted angrily, "Shut up the fuck!"
