Start the Tang Dynasty: The descendant of Wei Wu from the Qin Qiong family!

Chapter 126
"What a load of nonsense."

Karasuba snorted coldly: "How can those grass roots and tree bark be food for people to eat?"

"You'll know if you can eat it or not if you try it!"

Qin Huaiyu snorted coldly, grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, and walked to Wu Yu's side.

"You...what are you doing?" Karasuba asked slightly horrified.

"Don't you want to know if you can eat it?"

"I'll let you experience it for yourself!!"

Qin Huaiyu looked at Wu Yu with a smile, raised his hand and pressed the handful of soil on Wu Yu's mouth.

Karasuba struggled desperately, refusing to open her mouth.

But with Qin Huaiyu's strength, he easily broke a small section of his bone with just a pinch. Wu Yu opened his mouth and was about to scream, when Qin Huaiyu's soil poured into his mouth!

"Woooooo!"

"Eat! Don't you want to eat?"

Qin Huaiyu held Wu Yu's mouth firmly, and there was a trace of cruelty in his eyes that no one noticed.

If the tiger doesn't show its power, you treat me like a sick cat!

"Cough cough cough!!"

After a long time, Wu Yu started to roll his eyes, and then Qin Huaiyu let go of his hand.

To teach Li Shimin a lesson, he could turn a blind eye or close one eye, but killing someone was not allowed.

"All right."

Li Shimin said: "You'd better tell me how your behavior has anything to do with the victims."

"Indeed." Fang Xuanling also said softly: "It's not like we haven't seen this kind of scene before."

"Have you ever eaten these?"

Qin Huaiyu's rhetorical question completely confused them and they didn't know what to say.

When they were most in need, even if they ate some wild vegetables, they did not go as far as eating grass roots, tree bark, or even soil.

"That year, there was a severe drought in Youzhou. In addition, the imperial conquest took away most of the grain reserves of each household. It was a time when the common people could not survive. As a result, the Turks moved south again, making the people who were already almost dying The situation has become even worse.”

"Although I have money sent by my father, at this time, prices in the city have soared, and that little money can no longer buy much food."

"These profiteers really deserve to be killed!" Wei Zheng snorted coldly.

"You deserve to be killed, but which law says that people can't take advantage of chaos to make a fortune?"

Qin Huaiyu asked back.

"He...it's wrong for them to do this!" Wei Zheng forced his words.

"It's indeed wrong, but they are businessmen, and businessmen pursue profits. That's it. In the final analysis, isn't it because the court usually doesn't control them?"

"What's the use of dealing with it when it comes?"

"Other than scaring people away from doing business, which will then stop the flow of goods between the north and the south and lead to economic depression and serious economic problems, it will have no use!"

Qin Huaiyu said angrily: "Besides, the imperial court took the lead in not following the law, so what is the law of the Tang Dynasty? Is it a decoration?"

"Ahem." Du Ruhui coughed lightly: "Let's get back to the topic."

"That's what Cai Guogong said."

Qin Huaiyu responded, and then said: "Although I couldn't buy much food at that time, I did still have a surplus."

"At first, when I saw the people next door suffering from hunger, I couldn't bear it, so I gave them two buckets of rice to prevent them from starving to death."

"Ever since, everyone in the village knows that I have a surplus of food at home."

Having said this, Qin Huaiyu had a bitter smile on his face, but everyone could see that there was still more resentment in his eyes.

"Everyone came to my house to ask for food, but I could only share a small amount per person. Later, I had no food left, and these people actually called me an inhuman beast!"

Listening to Qin Huaiyu's words, Li Ke opened his mouth in disbelief: "Is this the case of Shengmi's kindness, fighting against rice's hatred?"

"There are so many unscrupulous people in poor mountains and poor waters." Li Chengqian also lamented.

"You think this is over?"

Hearing Qin Huaiyu's words, the little fat man Li Tai couldn't help but said: "These people won't just start robbing food, right?"

"It's more serious than robbery."

Qin Huaiyu sneered and said: "After a few days, these people couldn't bear the hunger, so someone came up with the idea of ​​​​my family." "At night, taking advantage of the moonlight, they came in with picks and shovels. You said they wanted to do it." What?"

The crowd remained silent.

The intentions of these common people were simply Sima Zhao's intention and were known to everyone on the road.

"I was still young at that time, so who was my opponent to these people?"

"If my master hadn't gone out to travel at that time and killed two people to scare them, I might have become a withered skeleton by now!"

Qin Huaiyu's face was full of fear when he mentioned this incident, which made everyone feel emotional. It can be seen that this incident had a great impact on Qin Huaiyu.

"What happens next?" Li Chengqian suddenly wanted to know the outcome of these people.

"after that?"

Qin Huaiyu's face suddenly filled with a strange smile.

"You wouldn't want to know."

This smile immediately sent shivers down everyone's spine, as if something bad had happened.

"No...it won't be..."

Wei Zheng's voice was trembling.

"After a few days, the smell of meat started to smell in the village."

"Tell me, where does this meat come from?"

How come no one can guess what is going on.

"This is too cruel..." Li Lizhi couldn't bear it.

"Tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring!"

Kong Yingda is old and can't bear this kind of human tragedy.

"That's why people don't eat their own children."

Qin Huaiyu said: "I went out for a walk that day and happened to meet two families in the corner, taking each other's children home."

"Why didn't you save them?" Wei Zheng started to look at it again.

"Rescued, what next?"

Qin Huaiyu asked: "Starve me to death, or starve them to death?"

Wei Zheng was speechless for a moment.

"Eating by exchanging children is just four words in a history book to you!"

Qin Huaiyu's words deeply shocked them.

"So, what I want to tell you is that the hungry victims are no longer human beings, they are worse than animals!"

Qin Huaiyu looked at Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and even Li Tai.

"You have to save them, but you can't show sympathy!"

"Sympathy can't save them, let alone yourselves!"

Li Chengqian and the other three looked solemn, and they all raised their hands and said, "Yes, we understand!"

Although Qin Huaiyu is no longer the Attendant of the East Palace, in their eyes, Qin Huaiyu's status is particularly different.

He is both an outstanding and unparalleled young man and a teacher who guides their studies. This kind of relationship between teacher and friend makes them feel very comfortable.

"This topic ends here."

Qin Huaiyu continued: "Let's go back to our original problem."

The crowd nodded.

As for Karasuba... I don't know when, but he has disappeared here quietly.

"The answer should be water!" Li Ke said affirmatively: "I am usually very tired. If I don't drink water for a long time, I will feel very uncomfortable."

This explanation made Li Shimin and many others agree. After all, the feeling of being thirsty for water is much more uncomfortable than being hungry.

"But people can still survive for three to five days without drinking water."

Now everyone was at a loss.

This touches upon their knowledge blind spots!
