Army of the Undead in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 9 Yizi Cannibalism
When the silver-masked general spoke, his voice was extremely hoarse, and immediately frightened the little girl so much that she didn't dare to cry, but shivered in her mother's arms.

"General Ren, I see that their mother and daughter are disheveled and weak in their speech. They are really hungry. How about giving them some bread?" Liu Bian asked cautiously.From several conversations, I learned that the general's surname is Ren, and I don't know anything else.

At this moment, General Ren was staring blankly at the little girl who dared not move. The face covered by the silver mask could not see joy or sorrow, and did not make a sound.

"Young master, I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate. I've already paid them money. If we donate food, there will be no less than [-] families in this village. Everyone will come to ask for it. I'm afraid." The servant who started to speak He was a little cautious in handling things, and whispered in Liu Bian's ear.

He raised his head and looked out the door, and sure enough, attracted by the smell of broth, several thin-faced villagers were already looking at this place, but they didn't dare to rush in due to the large number of family members.

"Give them two pancakes!" General Ren spit out these words, then turned and left.He always eats alone, presumably because he is afraid of people seeing his face behind the mask.I don't know what it looks like behind the mask?Pretty or ugly?Looking at General Ren's back, Liu Bian secretly thought.

The clasp of the silver armor seemed to be bound too tightly, which made this serious general look a little thin and slender, and there was a hint of loneliness in him.

After the peasant woman thanked her a thousand times, the little girl took the pancake and began to bite into it. She looked like she was devouring it, and she was choked several times, which made Liu Bian shake her head.

In the time of a meal, the small flakes of snow have become the size of a goose feather, and they are scattered all over the sky, smearing the sky and the earth with a piece of silver.

If you have never crossed, it should be the New Year's season when the snow is flying heavily. Maybe I will pay New Year's greetings to your relatives in my hometown.Standing under the eaves, Liu Bian thought bitterly.He has done geological work before, and he is a person with strong adaptability. After these few days, he has integrated himself into this unknown world.

"The heavy snow will not stop for a while, and our schedule today will be delayed. It seems that we have to spend the night in this village." General Ren came to him at some time, and said worriedly .

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you arrive a few days later, and there's no rush." ​​For Liu Bian, it's the same wherever he goes, and Hongnong doesn't know the reality, and the most he goes is to eat and wait to die.Anyway, Wang Yun said that Hongnong's place can guarantee his safety 100%, and the general of the Dai County Guard was He Jin's most trusted general before.Back then He Jin was assassinated in the palace by eunuchs, Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to control the military power, all the generals under his command were recruited by Dong Zhuo, as to why Wang Yun was so sure that the remote general would not join Dong Zhuo, this was not something he knew.

At Wang Yun's age, he shouldn't be talking nonsense.

"My lord, you don't know. We are no longer in Luoyang, and we don't have a large army to accompany us. We must be cautious in everything. You must know that many places are not peaceful at this time of year!" General Ren stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake, He held it, as if he wanted to feel the chill through the leather gloves.

"Huh? Why is that?" Liu asked puzzled.He already knew from Cao Cao that the people's lives were not good, but why did General Ren point out this season in particular?

"Son, you really don't know?"

Looking at the cold eyes on the silver ghost's face, Liu Bian shook his head and said calmly, "I really don't know."

"In recent years, there has been famine everywhere. The people have not enough to eat, and starved to death everywhere. Do you know, my lord?"

After seeing Liu Bian nodding, General Ren's tone gradually became serious: "It's fine in normal times, even if there is no food, the hungry people can eat some grass roots and wild vegetables and catch some voles and hares to live; but once it comes to autumn During the season of winter solstice, beasts hibernate, and heavy snowfall, there is nothing to eat. At this time, the people can only suffer and pray for God’s blessing. If you are lucky, you may survive a season and wait for the next spring to bloom; It’s a relief to starve to death!” After a pause, as if recalling something from the past, General Ren’s tone became cold, and it sounded like cold wind whistling in his ears: “What’s more.”

Liu Bian couldn't help being infected by his aura, and asked, "Why?"

"What's more, I really can't bear the hunger, and only Yizi can eat each other!"

Yizi cannibalize each other!

Liu Bian shuddered, and felt a chill pouring down from the top, chilling him completely!Even though tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring, humans can't kill their own flesh and blood.What a tragedy it is to be forced to donate the closest flesh and blood to others for food!

"The crying girl today heard that her father went hunting in the mountains with a few middle-aged men two days ago. It took seven or eight days and has not returned yet. Now that the heavy snow is not stopping, it is very likely that there is a lot of bad luck. Food for ferocious beasts. If her father dies, the girl will starve to death, or... I heard Mr. Wang said that the young master is a relative of the magistrate's family in Hongnong County. Why don't you take this pair of orphans and widows with you? Save a life." At this point, General Ren bowed slightly to Liu Bian.

"Oh, what a pity!" Liu Bian sighed, feeling his chest was blocked by all kinds of helplessness, wishing he could scream up to the sky!
"Why, don't you want to bring a pair of burdens, sir? That's right, you are used to rich clothes and fine food, so how do you know the sufferings of the people!" General Ren sneered at him.

"No, General, you misunderstood." Seeing what he said, Liu Bian couldn't laugh or cry, and quickly explained: "I just hate that I don't have half the strength, and I can't save countless refugees in the world. I can only see them suffering but I can't help them. Of course, if The mother and daughter are willing to follow us. There is no problem. As long as I have food to eat, I will never let them go hungry."

After hearing what he said, General Ren also knew that he had misunderstood Liu Bian, and apologized again and again: "Young master, you have such a heart to save the world. I am ashamed to suspect that young master is a dude who doesn't know the suffering of the people. It really shouldn't be."

The two gave in to each other, and the distance suddenly narrowed a lot.

"Master, it's better to be careful. I'm worried that the villagers around here will come to snatch food if they are starving. After all, my duty is to protect you and reach Hongnong safely."

"The general is taking care of yourself." Liu Bian smiled and nodded, "Since they are very hungry, let's share some food with them. Anyway, we have enough food, and we can take some away and give it to the two horses that pull the cart. burden."

The two looked at each other with a smile and nodded at the same time.
