Datang: Picking up a little Si Zi and accidentally admitting his kinship with blood?

Chapter 471 Human Nature and Human Behavior

With extremely complicated emotions, Li Fei comforted the old tenant farmer and left with Huangdi Chiyou. Although he had been mentally prepared for it, when they saw such a scene along the way, they still couldn't bear it. The place is restless.

The people around Chang'an are all fine. They usually live and work in peace and contentment, and they have a lot of food in their homes. Even if something strange happens, they all believe what the government says. They think it was the power of the blood moon that caused the ghost before. Now they just need to wait for the government to solve the problem. Everything will be fine.

But far away from Chang'an, it is like purgatory on earth.

In those remote mountain villages, the crops are no longer growing, and the livestock raised at home cannot lay eggs or young, so one meal is missing.

Poor people who had no food stored in the first place went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables after eating in their own vegetable fields. However, these things that could still grow after being cut suddenly disappeared.

In a few days, the vegetable fields were eaten away, the crops were eaten away, the livestock at home were eaten away, and even the mountains near the village were eaten bare.

It was just like during the famine years. In order to survive, people began to fight for the few food. During the fight, they were slightly injured, but they never recovered, so people started to die.

Those who starved to death, those who were beaten to death, those who died from accidental injuries...

Starving people everywhere, mourning everywhere...

People were so hungry that they began to eat the dead. After the dead were eaten, they began to exchange their children for food...

Li Fei and others traveled half of the Tang Dynasty in the past few days, and everything they saw became more and more shocking. He wanted to do something to save these people, but he didn't know what he could do.

"It's only been half a month..."

What Huangdi was talking about was the time from the moment the Sunstone was released to the present.

"Yes, half a month is enough to destroy the entire land."

Li Fei and the other three were on the edge of a cliff in the southwest. They didn't want to leave anymore. Demigods also have intentions, and demigods are also tired. Over the past few days, their hearts have been riddled with holes. They were afraid of seeing those people again. A helpless and desperate face.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a faint cry from under the cliff.

Li Fei and others fell down the cliff and found a cave in the dense forest. The cry came from the cave.

When I walked in, I saw a thin child holding a cold body, sobbing and crying. The child did not dare to cry too loudly, for fear of attracting wild beasts, and even more afraid of attracting other humans.

After discovering the figures of Li Fei and the others, the child's eyes changed from sad and helpless to despair. He finally stopped suppressing his fear and cried loudly.

"No, don't eat me, I beg you..."

Seeing the child frightened, Li Fei and others stopped walking in, thought for a moment, and left to avoid scaring him, hiding outside the cave and secretly watching the child.

"Brother...brother...I'm sorry...brother, I'm so hungry...I'm sorry..."

The already cold body held in the child's arms was that of his older brother. He was covered in festering scars. He might have suffered many skin injuries while hiding in the cave. In the end, he died of illness and death due to infection and excessive blood loss.

Obviously his brother looks only eleven or twelve years old. Li Fei and others can imagine how the two younger and weaker brothers went through all kinds of hardships and hid with his younger brother in order not to be eaten. Go under the cliff of this deep mountain and old forest.

Seeing his younger brother apologizing, Li Fei raised his arm and put it into his mouth. Li Fei was shocked. He knew what this child was going to do. Even though his heart was rock-solid after all he had experienced, Li Fei was so excited by this scene that his eyes filled with tears. Tears.

"do not go!"

Chi You grabbed Li Fei and Huang Di who were about to stop the child from eating his brother.

This move made Li Fei and Huang Di a little dissatisfied, but when they looked back, Chi You had already burst into tears.

"If you try to stop him now, you will harm him..."

Li Fei and Huang Di were still puzzled, how could they just watch...

"If you can't stand it, don't watch it." Chi You turned the two of them around.

"His brother brought him here despite his injuries, just hoping that he could live well. The last care this brother gave his brother was his already cold body..."

"You fart!"

This was the first time Li Fei and Chi You had a disagreement and quarrel. He broke away from Chi You's hand and rushed straight into the cave.

"You have saved him now, can you protect him for the rest of his life? How can such a young child survive in these days!!!"

Chi You shouted at Li Fei, but Li Fei ignored him and picked up the child from his brother.

"Why eat him!?"

When the child saw that Li Fei's eyes were red, he didn't know that Li Fei was angry because he was sad and thought that Li Fei was a bad person.

"No, no... don't eat me, you can eat brother..."

Li Fei's whole body was shaking when he heard this child, who was less than six years old, looking at him with fearful eyes and saying such cruel words innocently.

"why why?"

The child was so frightened that his face turned blue. He was trembling and persisting, trying to save his life from the hands of these strong men. This was his brother's last hope. He wanted him to survive.

"Brother said...after he dies...you can eat him...please don't eat me...brother will be sad..."

Li Fei put the child down, covered his face and squatted aside, roaring feebly.

"what!!!!!!!!!!"

Huang Di and Chi You were afraid that Li Fei would lose control of his mood, so they stood between him and the child.

"Let's bury my brother."

Chi You was not that kind of cruel and ruthless person. When he saw Li Fei rushing in regardless of the obstruction, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"But I'm very hungry..."

For such a young child, he only knew how to listen to adults. He only knew that before his brother died, he ordered him to eat his brother if he was hungry.

Huangdi took out a water bag and dry food and handed them to the child.

"Eat. When you are full, bury your brother and then come with us."

The child blinked his big confused eyes.

"Don't worry, we are not bad people."

After all, he was young, and the disaster happened suddenly. The child's heart had not completely established despair for the world. When he saw someone giving him food, he chose to believe it.

Fortunately, fortunately Li Fei stopped him, fortunately they still had the power to save a pure soul and did not watch the young man fall into the abyss.

At this time, even Li Fei himself couldn't figure out whether he saved the child or the child saved him.

At least, seeing hope and light, his heart didn't seem to hurt so much.
