Chapter 180 179 The Little Girl's "Eating Meat"
Gu Hua held the skinny little girl in his arms, paused suddenly, turned his head to look at the towering mountains in the distance, and always felt that there was a pair of malicious eyes staring at this side.
"Sister Gu, where did you bring this child back from?" Shen Hongwei asked curiously when she saw Gu Hua walking in with a little girl who looked about five or six years old in her arms.
"The cellar." Gu Hua said to the Shen sisters, "Bring us the water bags we brought."
Shen Hongling came out from the inner room and saw the child Gu Hua brought back with dry and chapped lips. She quickly turned around and went in to take the water bag from the bag.
Gu Hua put the little girl on the bed.
Shen Hongling put the water bag to the little girl's lips.
Perhaps she felt the water, the unconscious girl pursed her lips.
The desire for water made the little girl slowly regain consciousness and she began to drink it in big gulps, a hint of satisfaction showing on her thin cheeks.
When she regained consciousness and saw Gu Hua and the other two standing in front of the bed, fear flashed across the little girl's eyes. She curled up in a corner, her face turning pale, and she uttered in a childish and hoarse voice, "You...you don't want to eat me..."
Gu Hua and the Shen sisters were stunned, and immediately understood...
"Don't be afraid." Shen Hongwei wanted to reach out and hold the little girl to comfort her wounded young heart.
When the little girl saw her hand coming towards her, she was so scared that she curled up her body even more, and her skinny and exposed face became even more frightened.
Gu Hua expressionlessly took out half a piece of dry food that they had brought with them on the journey and handed it to the little girl.
Perhaps she was too hungry, the little girl finally couldn't resist the temptation. With tears on her eyelashes, she timidly stretched out her dry little hand to take half a piece of dry food and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Cough cough cough." As expected, the little girl choked because she ate too quickly.
Shen Hongling handed over the water bag at the right time...
After eating and drinking her fill, the little girl let down her guard a little.
The little girl Jiang Ming is actually eight years old. The reason why she looks five or six years old is because she is pale and thin due to hunger during the years of famine, which makes her look younger than her actual age.
Shen Hongwei saw that the little girl had relaxed, so she moved closer and asked, "Little sister, can you tell me now what happened in your village?"
Jiang Ming looked towards Gu Hua with his dark eyes.
Even in her daze, she still felt that it was Gu Hua who rescued her from the cellar where there was no water or food.
The half piece of dry food just now was also given by her. She was able to let down her guard so quickly because she knew that the bad guys who really wanted to kill children to fill their stomachs would not give her food or drink.
Jiang Ming met Gu Hua's eyes, which were neither sympathetic nor merciful as he looked at her. Still, while the three of them were waiting, she tearfully recounted what had happened in the village.
After listening to Jiang Ming's narration.
Shen Hongling and Shen Hongwei were both filled with anger, "Those who say they are fighting against corrupt officials are rebels seeking benefits for the common people.
What kind of shit are they? I think they are locusts. Wherever they go, there will be chaos and no grass will grow."
Gu Hua listened to the little girl's words quietly, without any anger on his face that the Shen sisters had towards those people.
They raised slogans to fight against the government for the common people, ambitiously clamored to overthrow the tyrant and let the people live a good life with enough food and clothing, and then turned around and asked for support to forcibly take away the villagers' only remaining food rations.
She was used to such things as burning, killing and looting under the slogan of "for your own good" in the end times, so she did not show any surprise or anger. The girl who called herself Jiang Ming was not an ordinary girl.
Her father was a local tycoon with considerable wealth and land. When the disaster struck, her father relied on his status and prestige in the local area to lead the whole family back to the family home, rallied the villagers, and paid to surround the entire village with a high wall.
Because there are several deep ancient wells in the village that seep water even in droughts, the people in their village have stayed in the village and have never left.
Until recently, the county town was captured and occupied by the so-called rebel army, and then was driven out of the county by another force, and they accidentally fled to their remote mountain village.
"Those people treat our village as lambs that can be slaughtered at any time." Jiang Ming's eyes flashed with tears and fear, "The reason why they don't live in the village is that they want to catch people passing by here by surprise when they come down the mountain.
This way they can not only get the valuables of passers-by, but even if those people have nothing, those demons can still eat their flesh. "
"Hey!" Shen Hongwei retched.
The three of them understood what the little girl meant by "eating meat".
Gu Hua and Shen Hongling looked at Shen Hongwei with disdain.
The reason why the little girl was stuffed into an inconspicuous cellar in the village by her mother was also because she hoped that she would not be bullied and then eaten by those people.
Gu Hua glanced at Shen Hongling and motioned her to take care of the girl, then walked out of the room and went to find the boss next door to talk about the possibility that they might fall into someone else's trap and become reserve food.
Shen Hongling calmed Jiang Ming down, then turned around and told her cousin: "Go and talk to Han Jinyan and Ergui about this."
Shen Hongwei nodded in agreement.
……
Xiao Junlin, wearing a blue brocade robe, was sitting at the table. When he saw Gu Hua coming in, he casually put down the secret letter sent by the secret guard, looked up and listened carefully to what she said.
The cold phoenix eyes became as bottomless as the abyss, making people shudder.
"I know about this." Xiao Junlin pushed the secret letter on the table towards her. "This is the news that Long San sent back. He said that the children have been safely brought to the capital by the Royal Guards."
In a flash, the secret letter was in Gu Hua's hands.
……
The seven or eight royal secret guards finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the city gate.
They are not just kidnapping a few hostages, they are kidnapping three little ancestors.
Somehow these few rascals sensed that they had ulterior motives and would not hurt them easily, so they wanted to be well fed and well served along the way, and would cause trouble if they were not satisfied.
At such a young age, he is very sensible in what he does. He always jumps beyond the bottom line of their tolerance, but never really seeks death.
After reading the news that the secret guard named Long San sent back through the special channels of Prince Li's Palace, Gu Hua was impressed by how the clever kids managed to survive well on the way to being robbed, and how they made the royal secret guards suffer and met their needs. The news was vividly described.
However, knowing that the children did not suffer, Gu Hua was still very happy, at least he knew that the dog man guessed right.
Based on the intelligence that described several children as "almost" identical to Xiao Junlin, the emperor believed he had confirmed that An An and the other three were Xiao Junlin's children.
Now he is determined to use the children to control Xiao Junlin so that he can quell the rebellion and secure his throne. During this period, he will not let any accidents happen to the children and will even protect them well.
