"It looks like someone is ahead!" The person walking in front relayed the words.
Lin Yuan's expression changed. They didn't have weapons. In order to ensure safety, he let a few small people walk in front and acted as scouts. If there was any trouble in front of him, he had to report back immediately.
But after all, it was the first time they were there, and they didn't know how to convey the news. There were people in a vague sentence, and they didn't even see what these people were wearing.
"Stop." Lin Yuan gave the order.
Everyone stopped, their faces dazed, not knowing what was going on.
Jiang Gui was also very scared. He asked, "Fourth brother, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry." Lin Yuan said, "Wait for the previous news."
There are so many of them that they can’t hide, and they can’t retreat. They can’t run fast with so much grain. Lin Yuan really can’t bear the grain. These grains represent the lives of so many people before next year’s autumn harvest. capital.
News came before.
"It's a bunch of beggars."
Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, beggars, their physical fitness is not as good as those of the people he just bought, at least these people had enough to eat before selling themselves, and beggars generally don't have a good life.
Soon, they encountered the group of beggars.
A group of old, weak, sick and disabled, walking in the mountains and forests on foot, they almost caught what to eat, all of them were hunched over, their faces were yellow and thin, their eyes were dull, like walking dead.
When they saw the grain sacks on the trolley, they looked like wolves, their eyes glowing green.
The people around the grain are like a great enemy. They know that this grain is also their survival. Winter is coming. As long as they follow the new owner to the owner's village, they will be able to live.
If this group of beggars stole the food and hurt the new owner, they would be finished.
But the group of beggars did not rush forward, they just stood there and stared, motionless, like a statue, and changes in the outside world could not affect their behavior.
Lin Yuan didn't move, the two sides just stood still, separated by the trees and grass, the cold wind blew, there was an illusion that the peerless masters were facing each other.
After half an hour, Lin Yuan really didn't want to waste time here, so he shouted: "Do you have a leader over there? Come out and talk!"
Only then did the beggars change their expressions. They seemed to be discussing something. After a while, a young man came out.
Lin Yuan also walked over.
Jiang Gui grabbed Lin Yuan's wrist: "Fourth brother, you..."
Lin Yuan patted Jiang Gui's shoulder soothingly: "Third brother, don't worry, I have my own plans."
The young man was wearing ragged clothes, but he rarely had a rickety figure. He had dark skin, a strong body, and some spots on his face. It could not be said to be good-looking, nor was it ugly. He walked up to Lin Yuan: "This son…”
However, Lin Yuan interrupted him: "I have limited food, and I am in a hurry to go back. What I can give you is limited."
It means that they are willing to buy food for the road, but the other party cannot open their mouths.
Lin Yuan and the others don't have weapons now, and they don't want to really fight with this group of beggars. At that time, who will lose and who will win may not necessarily be determined.
When Lin Yuan said this, thinking about the existing grain in the granary, he felt better.
The young man is quite interesting, he suddenly said: "We are going to go to Jiangnan."
Lin Yuan looked at the man again and asked strangely, "Why are you going to Jiangnan?"
The man smiled and said, "Bump luck."
In recent years, droughts, locust plagues, plagues, many farmers have fled, and the people are struggling. Lin Yuan saw that the other party was still polite, as if he had read a book, so he said, "I'm afraid Jiangnan is a little dangerous..."
He is also well-intentioned.
Young man: "In today's world, where is it not dangerous?"
"I didn't ask the son's name." The young man asked.
Lin Yuan asked the people at the back to bring a bag of grain over. There wasn't much in the bag, and the blood was affordable.
"My surname is Lin, Lin Yuan." Lin Yuan asked him again, "Brother, what's your name?"
The young man smiled, showing his white teeth: "Zhu Baba."
Lin Yuan: "..." Would anyone in this world name their son Daddy Pig? Is this taking advantage of pigs or being taken advantage of by pigs
The man added, "You can also call me Zhu Chongba."
Lin Yuan's knees softened and he knelt down.
Zhu Chongba, who was dressed in a beggar's clothes, thought that Lin Yuan was tired from walking, but he still smiled and said, "Why did Young Master Lin make such a big gift when they first met?"
Lin Yuan: "..." I said you were Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, do you believe it
I said that in the end you defeated Chen Youliang and they got the country, do you believe it
I said that Queen Ma died, you killed all the heroes, do you believe it
Hey, knowing too much is sometimes a pain.
Lin Yuan's mind was a little dazed, but he quickly weighed the pros and cons.
Zhu Yuanzhang started to become a monk in the Huangjue Temple near the village in the fourth year of Emperor Yuanshun. He was sent out after becoming a monk for dozens of days.
Because of being a monk, Zhu Yuanzhang had a culture.
Because of traveling, I have increased my knowledge.
Because of his marriage to the Ma family, he has become a landlord class, and has the capital to recruit troops and buy horses.
It is now the seventh year of Emperor Yuanshun, and there is only one year left before Zhu Yuanzhang returns to Huangjue Temple.
Lin Yuan thought about it for a long time, but couldn't come up with a reason, he only said: "Brother Zhu is strong and strong, I really lack talents like you, if you don't dislike it, you can go with me, I dare not say anything else, It's not difficult to get a full stomach."
Then what... as long as he can help, he doesn't have to hug his thighs.
Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang may not necessarily agree. After all, there are a group of beggars behind him. He should not be the kind of person who can leave the beggars alone to survive.
"Brother Lin is so kind-hearted!" Zhu Chongba's eyes lit up, he hadn't had enough to eat for several days, even though he was young, he couldn't rob those experienced beggars, Zhu Chongba, "Let's go now!"
Lin Yuan... No... He promised to love the people like a son and only kill corrupt officials
Love the people like a child
I don't know when Liu Futong's rich second generation rebelled, but Lin Yuan remembered such a person, but not the time.
He did not remember when Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang rebelled.
Anyway, one step is one step.
Zhu Chongba suddenly asked Lin Yuan, "Brother Lin?"
Lin Yuan pointed to the beggar behind him: "What about these people?"
Zhu Chongba: "Meeting by chance and getting together are fate."
Lin Yuan: "..."
Zhu Chongba said in a low voice, "I haven't eaten enough for a long time. Don't look at them thin, they are rushing to eat."
Lin Yuan's eyes were complicated, and what he encountered must be the fake Zhu Yuanzhang.
Maybe it's just the same name
