Although it is said to go to the city gate to see the situation of the refugees outside the city, but in fact, there is no comparison of the previous situation, and there is no one who really understands the situation here. come to a conclusion. The main reason for going out this time is because I have stayed in Taiping Lane for several days. At this time, I plan to come out and see the situation in the city with my own eyes.
As an outsider in a certain sense, the chaotic scene inside and outside the city at this time, in most cases, Ning Yi can be seen as a simple disaster movie. In these years, as long as the order of the city still exists, no matter how tired or hard it is, people with a certain family background will not be able to suffer.
But on the other hand, in the face of many desolate scenes in the rain, even Ning Yi could not help but feel compassion, just like last year when Jiangning closed the city due to floods. There were many famines that time, and this time the situation is even more obvious. People who were injured during the earthquake, people who lost their families, or beggars and refugees.
Under such circumstances, when injured, a large number of people look down on the doctor, let alone the medicinal materials. Sheds were erected between the ruins on both sides of the road that had not yet been cleared. The people who lived inside were all desolate and desolate, and some of them went to pick up the ruins of their own homes in the rain. Those who were seriously injured or had broken hands and feet were homeless, hugging mats and hiding under the low eaves of Yu Qing, not knowing their life and death. This is already the fifth day after the earthquake, and they may still be able to howl a few days earlier. At this time, most people have been tossed to the point of silence.
There are also children who have lost their parents, or beggars who originally followed their father or mother, injured or uninjured, some trembling in the rain, some curled up in a shelter from the rain, and some cry. , but also cried hoarsely. Very hungry children secretly go to the ruins. If they can get something to eat, no matter what it is, they will put it in their mouths as soon as possible, but this is not the era of abundant food in the future, and no one’s home will be seen. How much to eat. More often, they were seen and chased out.
Boys and girls are the same in such a situation, no one is cute, not cute at all, life and reality can't make such romantic or motherly jokes here. Children who stray in the rain are just like wild dogs. There are also people from a slightly wealthier family who have dealt with their own circumstances and can develop some compassion. But with the support of this type of productivity, no kind of kindness is enough. The government or the big family like the Qian family will also provide some porridge and rice to keep some people from dying, but it can't hide a small number of people. The despair that has lost the future.
After all, in these years, like Hangzhou and Jiangning, if only a few dozen people froze to death outside the city in winter, it would be a truly peaceful and prosperous age. Ning Yi can basically understand, but after seeing these things, his heart is still a bit heavy. This is only the situation that can be seen in the streets of the city. Although Su Tan'er, Xiaochan and others are also sympathetic, they are also commonplace, and their mood is not as literary as Ning Yi.
She opened the car window and looked at it for a while. Seeing that Ning Yi was very serious and not in high spirits, Xiaochan said softly, "Xiaochan was also sold by her family when they were about to starve to death..." She just wanted to comfort her. Ning Yi, there is no self-pity, Ning Yi smiled, Su Tan'er took her to his side, let her rest her forehead on his shoulder, and then stroked her hair.
The plot outside the city cannot be carefully studied. In fact, the increase of refugees in the past few days has at least surrounded several gates of Hangzhou City. The soldiers of the Wude Camp had already blocked the city gate. The door was not closed, but it was quite troublesome to get in and out. Ning Yi had a certificate from the Qian family, but there was no need to go out. As soon as their carriages and costumes went out of the city gate, they would be surrounded by people. .
Ning Yi got out of the car near the city gate, and went there alone to watch for a while, and then a vigilant soldier came to ask. Ning Yi took the name of the Qian family and stabbed it out, and the soldier walked away. At this time, the environment outside the city gate was bad and muddy. Some soldiers built sheds outside the city to maintain order, mainly to keep the main road open.
The collapsed part of the city wall is not far from here, and a large number of workers are working. At this time, the city was busy saving itself and cleaning up the mess in their respective homes. There are not many workers who can be hired. More than half of them should be selected from the refugees outside the city. They are all men with some strength and rice. Hair and food, so here it seems to be very motivated.
Just by looking at it for a while, Ning Yi understood in his heart.
"Not only Hangzhou, but also Suzhou has been affected. There are too many people affected. If you want to travel by land, you may be robbed soon after you get out. For the time being, we can only stay here and wait for the situation to improve..."
Back on the carriage, Ning Yi sighed and was about to send the carriage back to Taiping Lane, but he heard the voices of people outside the city in the rain gradually sounding, and he didn't know what happened. Ning Yi listened for a while, and someone vaguely shouted: "We want to see the prefect, we want to see the prefect..." Xu is the rioting of the refugees outside.
When such a thing happened, the Wude Battalion stationed near the city wall was not in a panic. Ning Yi reached out the curtain of the car and saw that a general went up to the city wall in the rain and fog to watch for a while. At the same time, a group of soldiers watched over the city wall construction site, another group was still stationed at the city gate, and another group was driven out to be responsible for appeasing or suppressing. A few old people near the city gate passed by, and Ning Yi heard them say, "Alas, there's a commotion again."
"They're not doing well either..."
It seems that this kind of small sāo movement is not the first time. After a while, the sāo outside the city stopped, and Ning Yi didn't hear any screams, and it was probably not a bloody suppression of arrests and murders. After watching so boringly for a while, Ning Yi waved his hand and ordered to go back.
This afternoon, as it approached evening, the rain gradually stopped. The yin haze in the rain is gradually fading, the air is fresh, rainbows appear in the sky, and the trees planted in Taiping Alley have become greener and greener, which seems to indicate that the disaster finally has a preliminary respite, and the next step is the real aftermath. rebuilt.
Now that he understands that he has to live here for the time being, Ning Yi has already started planning for the family to live here for more than a month. For example, the city gates are closed on four sides. During this period of time, the supply of various green vegetables may be cut off, and many people's cellars may have collapsed. These things have to be considered. Of course, the Su family swallowed up one-third of the Wu family's property and money. At this time, it was extremely wealthy. Su Tan'er could just throw away the business here if there was a gap with the Lou family. No matter how high the price of rice was Food, they are also affordable, the problem is not big.
Originally, the hostility of the Lou family was one of the bigger problems, but the sudden earthquake should interrupt the other party's attention. After the incident, even if the other party really has bad thoughts, people like Ning Yi can naturally take shelter. For the Qian family, his gunpowder was also one of the preparations made in consideration of the Lou family's problems.
Although he has experienced many things and has enough ability to turn around in an emergency, Ning Yi is still keen on conspiracy, such as the operation of a large amount of intelligence information, such as higher-level power, just like Yang Weili in "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes": It's not that there are not enough troops, who likes to use magic tricks. Here, relying on the resources under his own hands, he foolishly strove to death with others. That is the real stunned youth. If the other party is really unwilling to do something, he is nothing more than giving Lou Jia to Lao Qin after going to Beijing. Once it's done, it's a flat push situation when you raise your hand, and you don't need to think about it.
So in the afternoon, Su Tan'er and Su Tan'er arranged trivial matters at home. In the evening, cooking smoke was everywhere in the city of Hangzhou. At this time, most of the wood and firewood branches were wet. A dog running and barking chasing a rainbow on the road also looked lively and animated.
"Actually, the dog is blind... it can't see the rainbow, it just feels..."
For the first time in the past few days, the sun appeared for the first time. The family gathered in and out of the yard to wait for dinner. Ning Yi and Xiaochan and others laughed and talked about the dog. Several children also leaned over and asked various questions curiously. At this time, Su Tan'er was sitting in the ruins next to her without any image. She smiled and watched this scene with her cheeks in her hands. At this time, she also slightly let go of the tense heartstrings that had been tense for a few days, and restrained the breath of a strong woman. She looks like a simple girl looking at her beloved husband.
What followed was a peaceful night, even more peaceful than the rainy previous nights. The seven nursing homes led by Geng Huyuan took turns to guard the night. The city that had been tired for several days seemed to finally get a long-lost sleep. In the past few days, the city could feel the slapstick no matter the day and night. It also restrained, but in the middle of the night, there was a thief in a nearby street, and there was a vague shout.
The next day, the sun rose high.
Everything is going as usual. During the day when the sun is out, everyone seems to be full of vigor in their work, but at noon, the hot sun has initially evaporated the water vapor, as if it has pulled back a few days since the rainy season. midsummer. In the afternoon, suddenly a team of sergeants came towards Taiping Lane. From a distance, they saw a team led by a young general. At this time, Ning Yi happened to be chatting with Xiaochan on the street outside, and by the way, he looked at the work around him. It seemed that he asked one or two people at the intersection, and then he looked over here, looking at Ning Yi from a distance, his head was raised, and his hand was holding the handle of the knife to come over.
It should be Lou Shuheng who called over to ask for trouble... With just a glance, Ning Yi could probably be sure of this. There was a sigh in his heart. In his original expectation, in the first two days of the earthquake, the legal system could not be taken into account. If it were him, he would simply gather a group of people, disguise his identity, and come directly to kill dozens of people in his own family. One pass, making it look like grabbing something, even if you don't die, you can cut a disabled person, and there is no way to pursue it afterwards. But it seems that the damage to the Lou family is also a little big. They couldn't react for a while. If they come again at this time, the entire Taiping Lane has temporarily united for the chaos in the city, so they have to use other methods.
The young general and more than 20 people were about to come over. On the other side of the street, there were also several horses galloping. There were five knights in total. They stopped in front of the group. , hurriedly saluted, the two sides said a few words, the young general glanced at Ning Yi angrily, led the team away, and the five knights came here. The leader of the lieutenant dismounted, and bowed his hands to Ning Yi, but it was the soldier who fought with Ning Yi in Xiaoyingzhou a few days ago. It seems that his name is Yuan Dingqi.
After greeting a little, the other party was not hypocritical, and said directly: "The young master of the Lou family has threatened to trouble Ning Gongzi among his friends, but the son does not need to worry about this. Qian Gong's guests will never be made difficult in Hangzhou. , As soon as Commander Du heard about today's matter, he asked Yuan to bring this token to Young Master Ning. If someone from the army came to make things difficult in the future, Young Master Ning would just take out the token and show it to others. "
Then Yuan Dingqi said, and handed a token engraved with the word "Du" to Ning Yi. Of course, this is not a token to officially mobilize the army, but only a certificate for the Si people who are currently in command of the Wude army. The commander's name is Du Hong, and the word is Ruofei. It is said that Commander Du knows some poetry and prose. At this time, military generals were not taken seriously, and it was not easy for that general to become a scholar. He was quite proud of his status as a disciple of the Qian family. Although he didn't know Ning Yi this time, he immediately sent someone to help.
Yuan Dingqi and Ning Yi fought on Xiaoyingzhou last time, and he was also a little curious about the fact that the scholar knew martial arts. His boss is a martial artist studying literature, called arty, and many people do it. Here, there are not many similar things for literati practicing martial arts. Verbally, he naturally asked a few more questions, and then smiled and said that he would have the opportunity to ask for advice someday, and then took people away without much delay.
With this token, the possibility that the military system wants to find trouble for itself is not high.
On this day, this little episode also happened. Time gradually passed, night fell, and it gradually deepened. It was about early morning, and some things happened unexpectedly.
When the chaos sounded, Ning Yi also woke up from the bed, Tan'er hugged him gently by his side and refused to let go, he parted his wife's hand, and after a while, put on his clothes and went out. The city to the north was already on fire. It was bright red, and it looked like the fire that burned in the city on the night of the earthquake. Smoke obscures the night sky.
Geng Huyuan and others were also watching in the yard at this time. Ning Yi went over and glanced at it: "What's wrong?"
"I don't know why it burned..."
"The sound of this firefighting is so confusing..."
All kinds of noisy sounds vaguely spread from the night sky, and after a while, Su Tan'er who put on clothes also came out, and Chan'er rubbed her eyes and came out of the next room: "It's raining, why is the fire so big? ah?"
"Hopefully it's just a fire..."
Ning Yi frowned and said something.
But it wasn't just fire.
When it was almost dawn, the chaotic voices had become louder, and then someone suddenly heard the news: "It's a fight, it's a fight, the people in the north of the city fought with the people in the Wude camp, I heard that the dead now…”
One day yesterday, Ning Yi didn't hear much news from the city. After all, the heavy rain had just stopped, and everyone had a feeling of being left behind. However, it was also yesterday that the army began to collect corpses again for disposal. After all, the weather was too hot, and there was some small friction with the people who had built the mourning hall in the north of the city.
Then at night, a fire broke out. Several large and small mourning halls caught fire at the same time in several streets. Dozens of corpses that had been placed in coffins were burned, and the fire spread, which could not be stopped in a moment, and dozens of them were also burned. People were burned like this. This uncontrollable fire made everyone stunned. Then, when someone came out and said that they saw soldiers from Wude Camp set fire, people in several streets instantly clashed with the soldiers who came over.
The people here don't know the situation over there for the time being, but it sounds like the situation seems to have intensified as the day dawns. Then, the sound of gongs and trumpets began to sound urgently, and chaos began to appear in the cities to the west. When Ning Yi and others set up a simple defensive street at the entrance of Taiping Alley, Fufang was hurrying back, panting, and then they saw more than ten Jianghu people with swords rushing from the intersection on the side, seemingly directly. Want to kill Taiping Lane.
This happened suddenly. It seems that some people who originally wanted to be a moron in muddy waters found an opportunity now. The strength organized by Taiping Lane is mainly the Liu's martial arts hall, but they did not cooperate with the dozen or so people. At this moment, Ning Yi and the others couldn't tell them apart any more, they just grabbed the stone and smashed it back. The two people were smashed to the ground, and they ran away in a noisy manner.
"What's the matter?"
Ning Yi turned his head to ask, and Fu Fangzheng was shocked: "Something happened, something happened, there was a fight in the north of the city, and people died..."
"I already knew the dead, how could this happen."
"The big man has died, the situation can't be cleaned up, there is a... a lieutenant went to appease him, but he was accidentally killed. That lieutenant, it seems that the name is Yuan and Yuan Dingqi, accidentally in the crowd, I heard that someone's head was killed. It was slashed with a knife... I killed the red eye, it's going to be a mess... Let's quickly guard the intersection and don't let people come in... "
"One knife... cut?"
Ning Yi was stunned for a while, recalling that Yuan Dingqi, although his martial arts cannot be judged, but the opponent's skill should be higher than his own, and it is said that he is also very powerful. Such a person will be chopped down with a knife in confusion because of some civilians. brain
Ning Yi felt a bad feeling in his heart, and even couldn't help but smile, such a person... made his neck feel slightly cooler.
Then, in the chaos, that feeling began to become a reality, and news came that the refugees at the west gate of the city took the opportunity to make trouble. It was a real rebellion, but it didn't succeed. In the morning, it was blocked by the prepared Wude camp. outside the city gate. But a message has come through clearly.
On the seventh day after the earthquake, Fang La's manpower had already completed the initial gathering, and they had killed them outright!
I always thought that Long Live the 3rd Party. It’s almost enough to have 3,000 words every day, which is also more durable, but I always accidentally code it to 5,000. When I look at it, it is two o’clock in the morning. What I meant to say about tomorrow's birthday has also become today's birthday...
Well, it's my birthday today. It's really a complicated feeling. Take that old-fashioned saying to say, obviously I didn't do anything bad, and suddenly I'm a year older...
