My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia
Chapter 167 Demons
Ning Qingxi couldn't help shivering, and horror flashed in his eyes.
Is this the cannibalism recorded in the history books?
Just looking at these three words is already scary, but at this moment, it really happened next to them, in the Taixi County she had been to.
She couldn't help but look at the group of people in the distance, so how many of these survivors survived by cannibalism?
Thinking of those three words, Ning Qingxi couldn't help but feel his stomach churning, and hurried to the tree far away to retch.
After a while, Wang Xiujuan came over, originally wanting to comfort her granddaughter, but seeing the other party vomit over there, she couldn't help but also wanted to vomit.
Ning Changrong had also gone through a lot of fighting scenes before, but at this moment he was also a little disgusted. He glanced at shopkeeper Lin, but still couldn't help walking over, wanting to ask clearly the doubts in his heart.
"Shopkeeper Lin, what did you eat to survive in the city?" His eyes were very complicated, and he stared at the other party closely, for fear of missing a piece of information.
Shopkeeper Lin smiled wryly, he knew what Ning Changrong meant by asking this question.
"Fortunately, I run an inn, and the food on the surface has been robbed, and there are some rotten vegetable leaves in the cellar that no one wants. In those ten days, my family has survived on those rotting leaves. .”
The rotten leaves gave off a stench, and even the usual swill smells better than it, but there is no way, they can't get out, and there is no place to buy food, and his family is old and young , if you go out to buy food, maybe it will become someone else's food.
He originally had a son and daughter-in-law, but in order to protect them, they were all gone.
Ning Changrong was silent for a while, and apologized: "I'm sorry shopkeeper Lin, I didn't mean to offend."
He looked at the shopkeeper Lin's old wife and his grandchildren with numb eyes.
When Shopkeeper Lin was talking about it, there was no reaction at all, as if these things had nothing to do with them.
He sighed deeply.
Shopkeeper Lin smiled wryly, "It's all over, but I have a request, I wonder if you can agree."
He is an old man with an old wife and several young grandsons. Previously, because everyone was afraid of meeting Hu Dadao and the others, he involuntarily assembled a team.
But now these people's eyes are green when they watch them eat food. If they are separated from Ning Changrong and the others, how long his grandsons can live is hard to say.
He looked at Ning Changrong and the others with normal complexions and seemed to have strength, and guessed that they should be living well, so he carefully explained all their things when the other party asked them how they lived until now. speak out.
It was also to reassure Ning Changrong of his worries.
But what he said was indeed the truth. Even if they wanted to eat it, who could they kill when they were young and old?
Ning Changrong looked at the pleading in shopkeeper Lin's eyes, and probably guessed what the other party wanted to say, so he nodded.
"Shopkeeper Lin, if you have anything to do, please tell me first. If it can be done, I will try my best to help."
Shopkeeper Lin glanced at the three grandsons and the old wife, his eyes were full of pleading, "Chang Rong, can we come with you? Although I am old, I still have some strength, as long as you can give us a bite of food." .”
Ning Changrong nodded without thinking.
"can."
Shopkeeper Lin wanted to beg again, but suddenly his eyes froze for a moment, and after realizing it, he asked, "Evergreen, what did you just say? Do you mean that we can be with you?"
Ning Changrong smiled slightly: "Master Lin, you heard me right, I am willing to let you join, but if you join, you have to abide by our rules."
Shopkeeper Lin's eyes were red with emotion, and he couldn't help crying, "Evergreen... Don't worry, we will definitely abide by your rules!"
Hearing shopkeeper Lin's cry, Mrs. Lin, who had lost her son and daughter-in-law, regained her senses and burst into tears.
Crying is contagious, and after a while other people also remembered the days they had lived in the past few months, and everyone began to cry.
When Wang Xiujuan heard that Ning Changrong was going to let shopkeeper Lin and the others join her team, she didn't object, "It should be so, they are old and young now, if they continue to follow this group of people, I don't know what will happen How can we say that we owed someone a big favor back then, and we are not short of food right now."
Ning Qingxi stood aside, "Shopkeeper Lin can read and write, and he can help teach others how to read and write."
"That's okay. When our city is almost built, let those children learn to read and write."
Their family is most aware of the importance of literacy. After the city is built, the population will definitely increase. It cannot be managed by their family alone. They have to train a few men, but they don't worry about other people. They can only rely on these people. Pick inside.
Those who can read only recognize the Ning family, and even those in Ning Village only know a few words.
But their family has things to do, how can they have time to teach others to read?
Ning Changrong paused and then said: "It's not necessary now, but you can also let them do what they can, so that they can support themselves."
They are just when they are short of people, but they are also short of others.
He has known the character of shopkeeper Lin for a long time, and he can also contribute by joining them.
Wang Xiujuan was about to go to see Shopkeeper Lin, when she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure. Her steps were a little stiff, and then she returned to normal immediately.
As if nothing had happened, he went to shopkeeper Lin and said a few words, and then found Ning Changrong without stopping.
"Bad Evergreen! I found Hu Dadao!"
Wang Xiujuan pulled Ning Changrong aside and whispered.
Ning Changrong's pupils shrank, he was about to look back and then stopped, and asked softly, "Where is it?"
Wang Xiujuan also seemed to be talking normally, "Just behind you at nine o'clock, that person with disheveled hair, injured left arm, sitting alone in the awning."
Ning Changrong secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the other party was injured.
"Mother, don't worry about it, just pretend nothing happened, and keep doing your thing."
Wang Xiujuan was fine, she was just walking around here and staring.
After Ning Changrong left, he quietly called Ning Daniu and Ning's second child, and after telling the two of the situation, the three of them approached the tent that was alone.
"Not allowed to move!"
Ning Daniu seized the opportunity and rushed forward with a stride. The huge machete rested on Hu Dadao's neck. The other people around were shocked by this sudden scene and didn't know how to react.
After reacting, he got out of the canopy and hid far away.
"Brother, what does this mean?" Hu Dadao was held around his neck with a long knife, and two people beside him were holding a small arrow aimed at his head and chest. He raised his hands and dared not move.
"Hu Dadao, right? Brothers like you, we don't dare to be you."
The others were horrified when they heard the word Hu Dadao. Hu Dadao's name is already synonymous with evil spirits in Taixi County.
Is this the cannibalism recorded in the history books?
Just looking at these three words is already scary, but at this moment, it really happened next to them, in the Taixi County she had been to.
