Ancient natural disaster: The whole family went to escape together

Because there was no pen and paper, Mr. Liu's registration method was particularly unique. He neither asked his name nor what he was good at. He just took out two palm-sized wooden signs from his cloth bag.

"Get this wooden sign. The fish you usually catch, or the firewood and other things you chop, you can use this wooden sign to take to General Qin to exchange for scarce items such as clothes, salt, and meat. , must not lose it.”

"If the wooden sign is broken, you will be labeled as a slave who killed someone, let alone steal someone else's. An extra sign will do you no good."

It seems that this thing is equivalent to a temporary residence permit. It should be something specially made by Emperor Yu in order to maintain order and prevent murder and cannibalism from happening.

If you make a mistake, you will be deprived of your wooden sign, and then you will be dragged into slavery and hard labor.

I have to say that this approach is indeed useful, but Su Bujing feels a little weird for no reason.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't find anything wrong, so I had to put it aside and just think that I was worrying too much.

Su Bujing and Su Buyi each held a rough-made wooden sign in their hands and glanced at each other.

Su Buyi discovered that the wooden sign in Su Buying's hand was different from the one in his hand.

The wooden sign in Su Bujing's hand was approximately circular in shape, with a square pattern carved in the middle with a knife, and the four words "Yuan Henry Zhen" were written on it.

The sign in his hand is also circular, with a square pattern prominent in the middle, but there are no words "Yuan Henry Zhen" in the four corners of the square.

Nothing but square patterns.

Is there any way to say this?

Su Buyi was a little confused and immediately asked: "Sir, may I ask why these two brands are different?"

Mr. Liu's expression changed a little, and he immediately asked: "Are you literate?"

Su Buyi's mind turned over and over again, and the "yes" on her lips turned into "I don't know" for some reason.

"Haha, if we country people have a lot of money, how can we have the money to go to the school to learn literacy? I just saw that the things on these two brands are a little different..." Su Buyi scratched his head in embarrassment.

Su Bujing also helped: "Sir, are the words written on my sign? It's so beautiful, I thought they were painted flowers."

Master Liu quietly sat back, neither denying nor confirming, he just said: "Children, don't be so curious, I can't explain it to you anyway, just listen honestly."

After speaking, Mr. Liu looked at Su Bujing and Su Buyi lightly, with a hint of threat in his eyes, "Isn't it possible that you still want me to teach you how to read?"

Su Buying immediately lowered his head and hid behind Su Buyi, looking frightened.

Su Buyi apologized quickly: "How can we have the courage! We mud-legged people have no chance of becoming literate. Everything is subject to your arrangement. Please calm down."

Master Liu saw the cold sweat on Su Buyi's head and felt a little proud in his heart: "Huh, I will never trick you. Just don't worry. As long as you support Emperor Yu, you will have many opportunities to become literate in the future!"

After Master Liu said a series of words, he pointed at the knife on Su Buyi's waist and ordered unceremoniously:

"Also, civilians are not allowed to handle sharp weapons, so you must hand in your knife. As compensation, you can choose a more spacious plot of land on Yang Street."

Yangjie?

"Where is Yang Street?" Su Buyi asked.

Mr. Liu's eyes glowed faintly when he looked at the knife, and he was a little patient when he answered: "When this place was built, it was roughly divided into two streets, Yin and Yang. Let's not talk about Yin Street. This Yin Street is where you live. ."

"Yangjie is very crowded, with seven or eight people usually living in a piece of land as big as the palm of your hand! If you are lucky enough, if you hand over the knife, I can give you two brothers and sisters a piece of open space. How about..."

Mr. Liu's eyes flashed faintly, and the threat became stronger, as if he was saying: Don't toast and eat as a penalty. Before Su Buyi could say anything, Su Bujing behind him said crisply: "Great, brother, let's give the knife to you! I want to live in a big house!"

Then, Su Buying grabbed the knife and sent it towards Mr. Liu with a clatter as if he was giddy with joy.

"Sir, can we live in a big house now?"

Mr. Liu laughed loudly, stroking his beard and said: "Okay, okay, you can choose a piece of land by yourselves. After you have chosen it, just come to me with your signs."

Ouch, this little doll is really capable of doing things!

Su Buyi pulled Su Bujing back, thanked her gratefully, and then led Su Bujing towards Yang Street, but she didn't know where to go.

"Yangjie is on your right, just tell people when you go there that I arranged it." Mr. Liu happily touched the fresh knife and ordered without raising his head.

"It's still on the right... It seems that Mou San is right. We all were drawn into Yang Street on the right." Su Buyi suddenly said.

"Well, this sentence is correct." Su Bujing said.

Su Buyi asked: "By the way, are you really so kind that you gave away the knife without even thinking about it?"

"Haha, what's this? It's just a handful of scrap metal. If you lose it, you'll lose it." Su Bujing said with a smile.

Scrap metal...

Su Buyi became thoughtful.

That knife is obviously easy to use, it can cut people with ease. It seems that my sister just delivered the knife in person and did some tricks...

That's fine, as long as they don't suffer a loss!

It's quite a bargain to trade a bad knife for a temporary place to live.

Su Buyi didn't ask when the knife would be broken. He focused on holding Su Buying's hand and walking slowly.

Some glowing ashes were scattered on the ground, stretching into an invisible distance.

The brother and sister followed this trace and made good progress in the darkness.

Su Buyi stopped curiously, leaned over and twisted the ashes, "It turned out to be made from dead tree leaves ground into powder and mixed with the ashes left from the fire."

Although it is not bright, it is still very suitable for lighting the road.

"It should have been done by people who escaped from the north." Su Bujing also stopped and stood beside him.

"By the way, what do you mean by Yuan Henryzhen on the wooden sign?"

Su Buyi was still a little confused about the difference between the two brands. He took his own brand and Su Bujing's brand, and his thoughts were a little dazed.

Mr. Liu's reaction just now was a bit surprising. It was just four words, and it made him change his face as if he stepped on his tail. It was really hard not to make people think too much.

Su Bujing saw that on the four corners of the square pattern, Yuanheng was engraved up and down on the right side, and Li Zhen was engraved up and down on the left side.

She knew the meaning of these four words, but she was a little confused as to why such ordinary four words were only engraved on her brand.

What would happen if it were an exchange with the eldest brother?
