Chapter 324 Chaos
After listening to Laiwang's narration, Xiangling suddenly realized.

"It turned out to be like this. After I finish school, I will tell my brother about this. After entering Yunyang County, they are the people of Yunyang County."

Laiwang only frowned at this time, he finally understood why his aunt kept hoarding food last year, and even asked his parents to hoard it too.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "Well, I will tell my parents and second uncle after I go back."

The bell for class rang, and the two hurried back to the classroom.

When the master came to class, he also looked a little strange.

Soon, some students became restless. Halfway through the teacher's class, one of them suddenly fainted on the ground.

Everyone was terrified and waited to help the student up, but saw that his face was pale, trembling all over, and even his breathing became weak.

The master was also panicked at this moment, and hurriedly said: "Quick, hurry up and ask the doctor."

One of the students walked up to the fainted student, checked the situation, cupped his hands and said, "Master, my family is a family of Chinese medicine practitioners for generations. Judging from the current situation, this student must have fainted from hunger. Let him Get well, let him eat something."

When the master heard it, he looked around, and all the students around him were staring at him. The master had no choice but to order someone to prepare a bowl of porridge and pour it down for the student.

Sure enough, after eating a bowl of hot porridge, the man eased up a lot.

Everyone gathered around him to ask why, and the man said bitterly: "There is no food left at home, and I haven't seen a single grain of rice in three days. If I'm hungry these days, I'll eat it with a ladleful of water." Padding the belly, who would have thought that today would be unbearable."

As soon as this was said, other students also complained.

"My family doesn't have much food left."

"My family is the same. Now I can't buy food at the grain store."

"You didn't see that there are so many disaster victims in the city suddenly. It is because of them that we are short of food and clothing!"

"Let's go to the county government now and ask the county magistrate to drive those people out!"

Everyone said something to each other, from the original complaints to the ones who wanted to drive those victims away.

Xiangling became anxious at this moment, and quickly stood up and said, "Even if you drive them away, it's useless. They're just begging on the street, and haven't taken your stitches. Even if you drive them away, we still don't have enough money." food."

A few students took the lead in booing: "Of course I know you, Miss Qianjin of the county magistrate's family, your family has no worries about food and clothing, of course I don't think so."

"Yes, yes, I heard that the county magistrate's family had bought a lot of food earlier, so it doesn't matter if we are hungry when they are full."

"Since ancient times, officials and businessmen have colluded, maybe the lack of food in the city is related to her brother."

Xiang Ling became anxious, and blurted out: "You are talking nonsense, my brother is not that kind of person."

"My brother is a good official, he cares about the people! He must be trying to find a way to solve the food problem now."

Unexpectedly, these people didn't listen to what she said at all, and shouted that they should go to the county magistrate now.

Seeing that the matter was out of control, the master yelled loudly, but now they don't even listen to his words.

A group of students yelled and walked towards the county government office, but Xiangling had no choice but to follow.

Laiwang also hurriedly followed behind the crowd, protecting Xiangling.

Soon a group of people had arrived at the county government office.

They completely disregarded the situation at the time and rushed directly to the entrance of the county government office.

Seeing this, the yamen servant at the door took out his stick, but was still rushed in by the crowd.

The most frightening thing is that when they rushed into the yamen, the victims who had been squatting outside also rushed in.

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more uncontrollable, Xiangling had no choice but to enter through the back door.

Seeing this, Laiwang also followed her.

When the two of them entered through the back door, they saw Mr. Xu was carrying a bag of grain from behind, and ordered his servants to make porridge for the victims.

Seeing the sacks of grain being dug out, Xiangling instantly realized a problem, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother, let them move all the grain in!"

"Brother, those people are about to rush in!"

Xu Wenxun was so busy that he couldn't understand what his sister was saying.

When he saw his younger sister bringing Laiwang in through the back door, his face was full of doubts: "Xiangling, shouldn't it be time for you to study? Why did you come here?"

As soon as the words were finished, a yamen servant hurried over and said, "My lord, no, it's not good, those unruly people broke in!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open with a bang, and countless people rushed in through the front door, including many victims of the disaster.

Before Xu Wenxun figured out what was going on, he heard someone from the crowd cheering.

"Look, he really has food!"

"It turns out that the county magistrate has hidden all the grain!"

"Government and business collusion, lawlessness, these grains belong to us!"

With the sound of yelling, countless people rushed over. The yamen servants were just taking food to cook porridge for the victims. How could they care so much? Before they could draw their swords, many victims had already tore open the sacks with the bowls in their hands. Use a bowl to scoop up grain and pour it directly into your clothes.

Others followed suit one after another, and even directly snatched the bowls held by the victims.

The scene was chaotic, and many people fought for grabbing food.

Xiangling shouted anxiously: "Don't rob, don't fight!"

"Stop it, my brother originally wanted to share these grains with you."

"Stop it now, don't fight any more, people will die if this continues."

But those people were already scrambling, they didn't care about so much, many people went on a rampage, Xiangling was pushed violently, almost fell to the ground, fortunately Laiwang helped her in time.

The scene had reached an uncontrollable situation, and many people stepped forward one after another, because the county magistrate Xu did not allow the yamen servant to point the sword at the people, and everyone seemed crazy.

Seeing that there were still people charging towards them, Laiwang lifted his robe and kicked one of them flying.

But there were more people rushing towards him, because behind them was a wing room where more food was stored.

It was only then that Xu Wenxun realized how serious the matter was, and immediately said to the yamen servants, "Stop them quickly! Don't let them come in again!"

The yamen servants were ordered to draw out their swords, but those people had already turned red-eyed, and they would go on a rampage even in the face of the sword.

Laiwang didn't care so much, he grabbed the swords in their hands, and knocked down all the rushing people with the hilt.

But he was only one person after all, and finally he raised his sword high and said loudly: "Anyone who goes up to the front will be shot to death!"

It wasn't until he struck the pillar with his sword that everyone stopped commotion and looked at him blankly.
