Longevity begins with a dog

Chapter 132 Two months

Xu Chong didn't speak, his eyes were extremely complicated.

"The old man just sent it out of feeling, you don't need to take it to heart."

Jiang Zhihong waved his hand, "You have your own way, so don't meddle in this matter."

"You plan to continue saving people?"

Xu Chong said, "There are still a steady stream of people on their way."

"nothing."

Jiang Zhihong didn't care, "The Dao Seed can only collapse once. Now I've washed my body nine times, and my strength is enough. It's nothing more than a little tired and I can't die."

At this time, a yamen servant came in and said that a group of newcomers had gathered outside the city and were waiting for treatment in a separate area.

"I'll go right away."

Jiang Zhihong nodded to the yamen servant, and then looked at Xu Chong, "You are a blood-clothed guard, and you have no experience in yamen management, so help me take care of the security in the city."

After speaking, he strode away.

"Has it arrived at three o'clock?"

Xu Chong looked at the sky, and walked out of the Yamen towards one direction.

Theoretically, people from Canglong County would also be arranged outside the city.

But in order to make everyone safer, Zhao Liu took the initiative to provoke high-risk work at the city gate.

This allowed the surviving people in Canglong County to move into the city and occupy an abandoned square city similar to Canglong Black Water Dock.

Not to mention any conditions, except for a few simple houses that have not completely collapsed, it is the kind of simple scaffolding outside the city.

Li Xiangxue was among them.

When Xu Chong arrived, Li Xiangxue was hiding in a corner alone, holding a wooden stick, writing and drawing on the ground.

Those are three names.

One is Li Quanan and the other is Cui Wan.

After finishing writing, Li Xiangxue thought about it and added another one.

Wang Hezhi.

"Xiangxue."

Xu Chong called softly.

Li Xiangxue froze and turned his head slowly.

"it's me."

Xu Chong nodded.

"Uncle Xu..."

Surprise broke out from his dirty face, Li Xiangxue threw himself on Xu Chong's lap, "You are dead, you are not dead!"

"Daddy is dead, grandma is dead, and the county magistrate's grandfather was also taken away."

"Xiang Xue thought you were dead too..."

Children less than five years old can already use the word 'death' so proficiently.

"Yes, I'm not dead."

Xu Chong patted Li Xiangxue's head.

I still have a lot of things to do, how could I die?
Li Xiangxue suddenly let go of Xu Chong, untied his clothes, put the tablet tied around his waist on the ground, then knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times.

Xu Chong could see clearly.

It is written on the tablet that Xu Gong taboos to worship the longevity salary.

This is a longevity tablet.

"May God bless Uncle Xu, he will be free from disease and disaster in his life, and he will live a long life. Li Xiangxue, a servant, would like to kowtow to him."

Li Xiangxue repeated it several times seriously, and then kowtowed three more times.

Only then did he get up, and solemnly tied the tablet back to his waist.

"You... carry it all the time?"

Xu Chong asked.

"Ah."

Li Xiangxue nodded, "This is what daddy told me, and later when my mother died, I said it again."

When he said these words, Li Xiangxue's face was calm and his tone was smooth.

Did not see any color of sadness.

"By the way, Uncle Xu."

Li Xiangxue raised his face and asked, "Is the county magistrate's grandfather dead?"

"Ah."

Xu Chong responded softly, "I buried him in a place with a beautiful view. If I have a chance, I will take you to see it."

"it is good."

Li Xiangxue nodded seriously, and then asked hesitantly, "Grandpa County Magistrate...is he really a traitor?"

"Whether he is a traitor or not, how does he treat you?"

Xu Chong asked back.

"This……"

Li Xiangxue seemed to have thought of something bad, with a trace of fear on his face, he said uncertainly: "It should be good, although it is very strict... Then why does the court want to arrest good people?"

"This question requires you to find the answer yourself."

Xu Chong said seriously.

At this time, Zhao Liu appeared not far away.

"sleep early."

Xu Chong patted Li Xiangxue and walked towards Zhao Liu.

"grown ups."

Zhao Liu clasped his fists together, "In the entire Canglong County, except for some who have escaped to Fucheng, all the survivors are here. There are a total of more than 1 people, and most of them are..."

"I saw it, most of them are in the prime of life."

Xu Chong was not surprised, "It's not easy to survive so much, you must have suffered a lot."

"It's not just me."

Zhao Liu shook his head, "Many of the yamen servant brothers in the county have helped out together."

"Since the news of Fenggu County spread, we gathered the people who were still alive, brought all the food we could find, and migrated here together."

"The current Canglong is an empty city."

Xu Chong saw this when Yinshen was on his way.

On Cang Taki's side, there are only dots and dots, adding up to less than a thousand red dots that are so thick that they turn black.

"Don't worry, no one will die again."

Xu Chong sighed.

"Yes, there will be no more deaths."

Zhao Liu nodded and heaved a sigh of relief: "Jiang Xianzun just said when he went to rescue the victims outside the city that the imperial court will send food and medicine for disaster relief soon."

"Disaster relief..."

Xu Chong was noncommittal, and stepped into the darkness.

What he expressed has nothing to do with whether the imperial court provides disaster relief.

……

……

Jiang Zhihong assured everyone that he would be able to survive this famine.

Then he acted vigorously and confiscated all the stored grain.

All the residents of Fenggu County, poor or rich, willing or unwilling, were all forced to contribute their own food.

There is no way, if you don't pay, you have to leave the scope of Fenggu County and go to other places at the risk of getting sick.

Staying here, although there is only one bowl of porridge, half a radish, and half a steamed bun every day, it is far from enough to eat, but at least I can survive.

Everyone believed that as long as they could resist the disaster relief from the imperial court, everything would be fine.

Unfortunately, they were wrong.

Half a month later, no one came from the court, but there were still disaster victims from all over Yongzhou.

In the past month, the number of disaster victims outside the city has exceeded [-], and the number is still increasing.

Fortunately, Fenggu County is located on a plain, and the terrain outside the city is open. It is only a small matter to accommodate 10 people. The only thing is that there are not enough scaffolding, and the nearby hills have been cut down.

However, there was still no one from the court.

At the same time, as the number of people increased, the standard of food for all people was suddenly reduced.

Now, each person only has half a bowl of clear porridge and some unrecognizable plant roots every day.

It's okay outside the city, I came here as a refugee, so I don't pay much attention to it.

However, the natives of Fenggu County in the city have turned against Yingtian and surrounded the county government.

"Dog officer Jiang Zhihong! Come out!"

"Come out and give us an explanation!"

"If you don't come out again, Grandpa, I will fight with you dog official!"

"..."

All the yamen servants were sallow and thin, and the hand holding the waist knife trembled a little, firmly preventing these people from breaking in.

"shut up!!"

The leading Dianshi Chuwei shouted, "The county lord saved your life, how dare you be so disrespectful?"

"Huh? Save our lives?"

One person laughed, "Listen everyone, he said the dog officer saved our lives?"

"Save the fart! We are not infected in the first place, do we need his help?"

"It's just a headache, what kind of disease, it's just an excuse for the dog officials to steal our food!"

"That's it!"

"Give us clear water radish every day, I'm afraid I'm hiding in the yamen to eat fish and meat?"

"..."

Chu Wei looked at these people coldly, feeling chills in his heart.

How long has passed, just one bite at a time.

Have they forgotten that when the sick were about to die, how could it be said that every day did not work, and that the earth and the earth did not respond?
If it weren't for Jiang Zhihong, these people's corpses would almost turn into bones, how would they have the strength to speak?
As for big fish and big meat.

It's a joke.

Everyone, including yamen servants and officials, has the same standard of food.

The county lord followed suit, and he might not be able to eat a bite in three to five days.

Chu Wei held the handle of the knife tightly, wishing he could rush forward and tear the mouths of these people to pieces.

"Hey……"

At this time, with a long sigh, Jiang Zhihong appeared at the door.

In an instant, everyone's emotions were ignited.

"Dog officer!!! Give me back my food!!"

"Didn't you say that the imperial court will come to relieve the disaster? How long has it passed! If you don't come, everyone will starve to death!"

"Jiang Zhihong! We believe in you, so we will cooperate with you to take out our own food. Now you must give us an explanation!"

"What else do you need to explain?! He will definitely lie to us, he will be there soon..."

"Yes, I don't want you to explain anything, I want my own food!"

"..."

"Everyone!"

With a flick of Jiang Zhihong's sleeve, his calm and old voice made everyone quiet down a little.

"Wait another month."

"After one month, if the court still doesn't save you..."

"I, Jiang Zhihong, are here to rescue."

Jiang Zhihong said slowly.

"You? A joke!"

Someone sneered, "You are just a county magistrate, how can you save so many people?"

Jiang Zhihong didn't answer right away, but waved his hand to make a kind of yamen servant go away.

Then there was a punch, hitting the door frame.

Rumbling--

Starting from the gate, half of the wall connected to the gate cracked and collapsed in an instant, raising a cloud of smoke and dust.

One punch and the wall collapses?
The wall was more than ten feet long, one foot thick, and one foot high, and it was all made of solid blue bricks. So it just collapsed? !
Is this dreaming?

This must be a dream!

The inhuman power made everyone freeze in place, their eyes widened, and they looked at the collapsed wall in disbelief.

Jiang Zhihong walked slowly into the yamen.

"Just because I am a warrior."

Musha?
What do you mean?
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not understanding what this meant.

The only one who understands is Chu Wei who is a classic history.

Chu Wei's complexion changed again and again, and he ordered the servants to drive away the rioting crowd, and quickly followed Jiang Zhihong.

"Sir, you..."

Chu Wei hesitated to speak, wanted to ask but dared not ask.

"Don't rush."

Jiang Zhihong smiled lightly, "There is still one month left, maybe it won't be so bad?"

"One month..."

Chu Wei felt bitter in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, my lord, within this month, my subordinates will not let any trouble happen inside or outside the city."

Just like that, time passed day by day.

The one-month deadline is coming soon.

however.

Whether it was appointment documents, food relief, or imperial envoys, none of them appeared.
