Chapter 2571 There Is a Ghost in Wuyuan County

"My dear grandson, you eat! There are so many here! Grandpa eats these..." The old man's nose became sore and tears came down. He covered his face with his black sleeves and wiped it, and said with a smile. . ○

"Thank you, brother..." The child smiled happily and put the raw food into his mouth, chewing it while not forgetting to say thank you.

"Little Master Xie..." The old man did not take the food first, but was about to kneel down as soon as his knees weakened. Xiao Hua quickly supported him and said with a smile, "You should also eat some first!"

"Okay..." The old man wanted to be polite, but he couldn't resist the temptation of food. He bent down and grabbed a handful from the ground and chewed it greedily. For a moment, the old man felt that the whole world was filled with a kind of fragrance, and in the old man's ears There was only the sound of gobbling.

Xiao Hua looked at the old man and the child, then raised his eyes to the city gate, with worry on his brows.

Sure enough, the first few people who rushed into the pile of food were choking on their food, their eyes turned white, and they could no longer eat, so they stopped immediately. But they were not idle either. They picked up the grain with both hands and put it into their clothes bags and stuffed it into their arms. How much can one person stuff into his clothes? Immediately, a clever man took off his clothes, spread them on the ground, picked out a lot of food from the pile, and wanted to pack it into a bag and take it away. However, the clothes were really thin and rotten. As soon as the man carried the grain on his shoulders, the clothes were torn and the grain inside fell down along the man's body.

The food was dumped on the ground, and someone grabbed it and swallowed it. The man was so anxious that he pushed the person next to him with all his strength and shouted: "Get out of here, this is mine..."

"Who said it's yours? This is mine!" The man who was pushed down was naturally unhappy. He even dropped the pile of grain next to him and rushed to the man to shout. Of course, the fist he was holding also dropped. , needless to say. Two people who had just eaten started to fight...

A little further away from the two people, a taller man was the first to eat the food. Seeing someone tearing him apart, although he didn't think so much before, he immediately understood it and he almost didn't hesitate. As soon as he raised his leg, he kicked aside the person next to him who had his head buried in the food, and sneered: "Go away, this is my place!"

The man who was kicked down rolled on the ground a few times. Looking at that man's figure and then at the one next to him who was shorter than him, he simply raised his leg in the same way, kicked the other man away, and shouted: " Get over there, this belongs to me!"

Just kick that person away. Like the tall man before, this man hurriedly picked out a piece of grain from the pile, surrounded it with nearby gravel, and even held a few stones in his hand, guarding it eagerly. It seemed that the food they scooped out was indeed theirs, and no one else was allowed to compete for it.

"Alas, the greed of human nature is nothing more than this!" Xiao Hua watched these people slowly divide the food into dozens of piles. It was no different from what I had thought before, so I sighed slightly.

But.

The development of things has not stopped, and is still going in the direction he is worried about.

Although there is a lot of food, there are also many people to fight for it, and more people still come to the town after hearing the news, and conflicts inevitably arise! Yelling, tearing, punching, kicking, all in one moment. The dead town seemed to be bustling with life, and the food at the city gate was like stones thrown into the pool, sending ripples throughout the town.

"Not good!" Xiao Hua sighed and observed, and suddenly he saw a person holding a big stone and smashing it on the head of another person who fell on the ground, and the stone fell. That person will definitely die on the spot! Xiao Hua was slightly angry, smiled coldly, and hurriedly waved his hand to imprison everyone at the city gate!

Xiao Hua hesitated before and did not take out the food immediately, fearing that in this situation, a very hungry person would not even risk his life when faced with food. If there were officers and soldiers from Fengxiang Kingdom to suppress it, maybe there would be good order, and every day Everyone can get food. But if there is no deterrent, how can there be order when these people swarm up? Due to the ugliness of human nature, it is inevitable that something comparable to the ugliness in the city would happen before.

"That's all..." Xiao Hua waved his hand, and the food piled up in front of the city gate flew into the air, like a layer of drizzle falling evenly on all parts of the city, "Xiao Mou has already taken it out, so he will not take it back. This way Maybe more people can be saved, but even Xiao himself can’t predict the outcome!”

When Xiao Hua removed the confinement technique, all the people fighting for it were stunned, but the shock was only for a moment. Everyone rushed into the town to snatch the food scattered on the ground...

"Master..." Although the old man couldn't see Xiao Hua clearly or the others clearly, he could see clearly what happened. He smiled and said, "Don't blame them, people are like this when they are extremely hungry."

"Well..." Xiao Hua nodded and said, "I don't blame them, I just feel a little emotional about the ugliness in this person's heart. Oh, what are you doing? No one else has escaped, why are you the only one trying to escape? "

"The good teacher knows..." the old man said with a bitter smile, "It's not that they don't want to escape, but that they have eaten up all the donkeys and horses and can't go far. The younger one is reluctant to eat the lame donkey, so he wants to keep it. They came to help our grandfather and grandson escape, but..."

As he said that, the old man looked at the nearby sky and smiled bitterly: "It's already dark now, and I can't leave even if I want to! And now I can't go back to the city..."

"You can't walk because it's dark?" Xiao Hua looked back at the road behind him. Although it was already dark, the avenue was vaguely visible, so it was not impossible to walk at all.

"Master, please save the two young grandsons!" The old man hurriedly knelt down and shouted.

Xiao Hua smiled and helped him up and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you all the food."

"No, no!" The old man looked around in horror and shouted, "Master, that's not what I'm talking about! I beg you, master, to take the two little ones away from here!!"

Xiao Hua noticed the old man's fear, squinted his eyes slightly and scanned the surroundings, but found nothing. He asked curiously: "What's wrong here? Why are you so scared?"

"Master, it's already dark. If possible, you'd better take your grandson away as soon as possible! There... there are ghosts here, there are man-eating ghosts!" At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the moon was shining brightly. Before his head emerged from the clouds, the old man was really frightened. He stepped forward half a step in front of Xiao Hua and shouted tremblingly.

"Ah?" Xiao Hua was startled, as if he was struck by lightning, and he thought of something in an instant, "Grandma, no wonder the smell in the mountains and rivers was a little weird before, wasn't it just a slight underworld breath? It's just... Why does this place in Wuyuan County have the aura of underworld?”

"Master..." Seeing Xiao Hua's shock, the old man became even more frightened and begged in a low voice, "If you can't save the two of them, you can save the grandson alone..."

"Oh~" Xiao Hua came back to his senses and smiled, "Don't worry, I can save you! Don't be afraid, tell me, what happened in Wuyuan County, how do you know there is a ghost here?"

"Master..." The old man couldn't rest assured, he begged, "If you can save the little one, you'd better save the little one first. Once you get to a safe place, it won't be too late for the little one!"

"Alright!" Xiao Hua nodded, looked at the children on the donkey cart and asked, "Where do you want to go? I'll take you there."

"It can happen anywhere!" the old man said hurriedly, "As long as we leave Wuyuan County."

"So...you have nowhere to turn!" Xiao Hua pondered a little.

"Yes, I... my son and daughter-in-law have died outside Wuyuan County and have never come back. I only have this grandson left..." the old man replied with a sad face, "I have some skills and left Wuyuan County. You should be able to survive if you find a place.”

"Alas..." Xiao Hua sighed and said, "Now Fengxiang Country is full of famines. Although it is better than Wuyuan County, it is not much better. The leader of Fengxiang Country is about to provide disaster relief. If nothing unexpected happens, this This disaster will be over soon. If you are not familiar with the place, it is better to stay in Wuyuan County."

"I would rather die in another place than return to Wuyuan County." The old man replied decisively.

Xiao Hua thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know the Zhu family in Wuyuan County?"

"Zhu family? Master Zhu Chengzhu?" the old man asked.

"Well, it's Zhu Cheng!"

The old man nodded: "Of course I know Mr. Zhu, he is a famous family in Wuyuan County!"

"Where is the Zhu family in Wuyuan County? What would you think if I sent you to their place?" Xiao Hua asked again.

"This..." the old man hesitated, then said hesitantly, "Of course there is no problem with the younger ones. Mr. Zhu belongs to a family of saints, and ghosts and the like dare not approach. But Mr. Zhu..."

"Don't worry about this!" Xiao Hua waved his hand, "You just need to tell me where the Zhu family is."

"Master Zhu is not in Wuyuan County, but lives on the outskirts of the city..." The old man pointed to the other direction of the dark Wuyuan County and said, "To get there, you need to pass through the entire Wuyuan County!"

"Haha, I'm here, why worry about this?" Xiao Hua laughed, waved his sleeves, rolled up the donkey cart and other items, rushed into the air, and flew across Wuyuan County in an instant.

After landing, the old man still didn't believe his eyes. He wiped his dazzled eyes and looked around. The child next to him who was full and sleepy became energetic at this time. He looked at the lights in the distance and shouted : "Grandpa, look, this is Zhujiazhuang, and there... is the locust tree planted by the saint."

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" The old man was really crying with joy. He knew that he had met a noble man and finally escaped with his life, so he shouted hurriedly.

"Who is coming to my Zhujiazhuang?" The voice of the old man talking to the child carried very far in the night sky, but in the darkness not far away, a fire flashed, several lanterns emerged from the ground, and a voice also came from the ground... ( To be continued.)
