Smuggling Daming

It was a pity that Gouzi’s father kept screaming when they were dozens of steps away from the porridge shed in front of them. Although the rice porridge was delicious, it Not as good as noodle soup.Seeing the sunset, the family unwrapped the torn clothes and quilts they picked up from the flood, and lay down on the floor to go to bed.

"Brother, I'm hungry!" Sanya, Gouzi's youngest sister, said in a low voice. She was covering her stomach with her black and thin hands, and there was a strange noise from her stomach from time to time.Sanya is only five years old this year. Although she is usually sensible, she only drank one bowl of porridge a whole day. Children at this age can't stand hunger, so Sanya asked her brother for help.

Looking at the big eyes on Sanya's thin face, Gouzi felt distressed for a while, turned his head to look around, and found that the sky had already darkened, and the victims around him were lying motionless on the ground one by one, no one was paying attention To his side, Gouzi heaved a sigh of relief, secretly took out a cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it into Sanya, motioning her to eat secretly.

Sanya opened the cloth bag and found an egg-sized rice ball inside. This was saved by Gouzi this morning. It was originally hidden by the Gouzi mother and waited until the evening for Gouzi and Gouzi Dad to eat. After all, the two of them are at home. Men, the disaster victims are not at peace, if there were no men to protect them, their family would have been robbed long ago.

Although Sanya is sensible, she is a four-year-old child after all, and she is very hungry. How can she be modest when she sees rice balls? She stuffs them into her mouth and swallows them in two or three bites. I can't get enough to eat, but drink a bowl of water after eating.It can also suppress the hunger in the stomach.

After watching Sanya swallow the rice ball, Gouzi lovingly stroked the girl's little head, and then helped the mother-in-law Cao'er spread the rotten bedding, the woman and the child slept in the middle, Gouzi and Gouzi dad slept outside , and the two of them didn't dare to really sleep, as soon as there was something troublesome, the two of them sat up like vigilant hounds until they found that there was no danger.Only then will he fall down and continue to sleep.

"Ah~, robbery!" In the middle of the night, a shrill cry spread throughout the camp of the victims, and many people jumped up from the ground in fright, looking around in panic.

Gouzi and Gouzi's father were also very panicked, because the robber and the robbed person were not far away, under the moonlight.I saw a man wearing tattered clothes, his face covered by a rag, grabbing a bundle from a woman.The woman who was robbed was alone and had no relatives around her. Now she could only desperately hold her burden and cry, hoping that the people around her could help her.

It's a pity that when the stomach is not full.Everyone is selfish, especially those with families like Gouzi.Even less dare to make fun of his own life. After all, those who dare to rob are either vicious or hungry. Neither of these two kinds of people can be easily offended, and they might risk their own lives. Therefore, although the people around were all awake, they all looked at the crime in front of them numbly.Those with a little conscience also buried their heads deeply in the bed, looking very much like an ostrich.

Although the woman is desperately holding her own burden.But after all, he is not as strong as a man. In the end, the masked man kicked his stomach fiercely, and the woman finally let go of her hand. The man who snatched the burden turned around and fled, and quickly disappeared into the darkness. Among them, only the woman who was robbed was sitting on the ground and crying loudly. The little life insurance money she had left in that bundle was all gone now.

Looking at the wailing woman, the people around sighed helplessly, and went back to their sleeping places to lie down one by one. No one came forward to ask a question. After all, this kind of thing is too common in camps for victims of disasters. Yes, and this time it was good. The other party only robbed things. The day before yesterday, I heard that a mother and daughter in the far east were not only robbed of their things, but also their people were ruined.

Gouzi and Gouzi's father didn't have the guts to meddle in such nosy things, so they went back and lay down immediately, but after seeing the robbery process just now, they were more vigilant, and even Gouzi and Gouzi's father used the wooden stick as a weapon He and the hatchet are at hand, if someone dares to rob them, they can only fight with them.

There are 10,000+ victims in the city of Luoyang, and there are different numbers of victims gathered at the gates of each city. There are such a large number of victims, and most of them are hungry, so some robberies, thefts, and rapes occurred here. Such things are too normal, even killing people is not a big deal, as long as the criminal is not caught on the spot, the government will not pursue it, and there is no way to pursue it.

The night was very restless. Apart from the woman who was not far from Gouzi and the others, there were also many robberies in other places. Some people were even seriously injured by the robbers in order to protect their belongings. In this case, it is estimated that the injured person has no money for medical treatment. In the end, he can only fight hard, and God knows if he can survive.

It was hard to get through the night, and when the sun was high, the people in the government finally brought food and continued to distribute porridge. Gouzi’s family was in the front line, and soon received a clear rice soup, but the family did not complain at all. , happily drank up a bowl of soup, and then ran to the back of the line to continue queuing. If you are lucky, you might be able to drink noodle soup at night.

However, when Gouzi's family was queuing up, a group of officials suddenly came out of Luoyang City. These officials quickly posted notices on the porridge sheds and read out the contents of the notices to the victims every half an hour. Read it again and again, and soon the entire camp for victims knew what was written on the notice.

"Gouzi, what's going on? What did the government say? Is there not enough food in the city?" Gouzi's father immediately asked anxiously when he saw Gouzi who had gone out to inquire about the news. Their lives depended on the court's porridge shed. If the government stopped serving porridge, their family would have to take their children as refugees.

"Father, it's not about food, but the imperial court gave us victims a way to live and let us move overseas, saying that the imperial court has built a new place there, and there are fertile fields everywhere, but there are not enough people to cultivate them. If we If you are willing to go, not only can each person get five mu of land, but also the board and lodging along the way will be arranged by the imperial court, so you don't have to stay here to starve any more!" Gouzi said excitedly, and it was obvious that he I have already been tempted by the government's move to relocate the victims overseas.

"Bah! Can you believe the government's words?" Gouzi's father scolded Gouzi with a face full of hatred, "Don't look at them giving us porridge now. It's not because the government is showing kindness, but because they are afraid that we, the victims of the disaster, will starve I am in a hurry to rebel. As for moving overseas to share the land and provide board and lodging, how can there be such a good thing in the world? Maybe they will sell us to black-hearted people, and then life will be worse than death. None of you will allow it If you think about it, stay here honestly and get the porridge, as long as you get through this year, we will go home and continue growing food in the spring of next year!"

Although Gouzi's father has a lame leg, he is old and knowledgeable after all, and he has never believed much in the words of the government, so he will not believe that this matter is true as easily as Gouzi.

Hearing what the old man said, Gouzi also froze all of a sudden. Although he is the main labor force in the family, as long as the old man is around, the family must be in charge of the family. Say something.However, he still felt that this was a good opportunity. Even if the government couldn't fully fulfill its promise, as long as they could fulfill half of it, it would be better than starving and waiting to die in the city. After all, God knows how long the food reserves in the government can last?

Gouzi sat down with his mother-in-law, Caoer, and several younger siblings, whispering about the government's order for them to move to Nanyang.In fact, not only their family, but also the entire camp of the victims are discussing this matter. Among them, young people like Gouzi are impulsive and can't stand the torture of hunger, so quite a few young people are very tempted by the relocation. , each of them was discussing non-stop with excitement on their faces.

Compared with this young man, older people like Gouzi Daddy are skeptical about this matter. After all, they have experienced many things, and they have suffered from the government before, which makes them feel very sad. It's hard to believe that the government, which is generally used to exploiting the people, would provide such generous conditions for them to relocate. In the eyes of many people, this is simply a trap. God knows where those government people will transport themselves?

It is also the suspicion of the government, coupled with the local concept that the homeland is hard to leave, which makes most elderly people not believe in this matter. At the same time, they also ask their nephews not to sign up, which also leads to After the notice to relocate people was posted, no one dared to sign up for several days.

However, the government doesn't seem to be in a hurry about this matter, because the higher-ups have already expected this kind of reaction from the victims, and have a corresponding solution. This solution is actually very simple, that is, to use food to lure them, such as the porridge shed outside the city. On the basis of this, there were suddenly a few more immigrant porridge sheds. As long as the people who are willing to migrate to Nanyang register, they can get a certificate from the government. People can get a bowl of thick porridge that can't be poured with chopsticks, and even a piece of pickled vegetables.

As soon as this measure came out, many disaster victims immediately signed up. After all, looking at the thin soup in their own bowls that can be used as a mirror, and then looking at the thick porridge in the hands of those who signed up, the comparison between the two makes people drink thin soup. Many people felt hungry, and many people signed up because they couldn't bear the torture of hunger, but as soon as they signed up, they couldn't help themselves, and it would be too late to regret it.
