Chapter 67 12 Silvers 1 Catty of Rice

Chapter 67
She smelled an unusual smell. In this special period, the city should not be closed.

"Okay, don't blame my brothers for not reminding you when the time comes, let's go."

After pinching her bag and making sure there were only some soft clothes inside, they opened the city gate.

As soon as the city gate opened, many people with yellow and thin faces stood up and wanted to rush out, but they were quickly stopped by them.

"Bam—"

The city gate was mercilessly closed.

"Okay, please, give me something to eat." A dirty old woman pulled up, trembling and almost unable to stand.

Qin Zhen sighed in his heart, so he took out some copper coins from his purse and threw them out.

In an instant, everyone was busy picking up money, and she hurriedly took advantage of the chaos to leave.

Walking along the street, I found that many houses on the lower terrain were flooded to the threshold. One can imagine what the suburbs are like.

The post station couldn't live anymore, so she had to find a rice store.

There were already four strong men with knives guarding here, and there were many refugees lying opposite, but none of them dared to step forward.

She got off the horse and looked at the white rice, and those strong men quickly became vigilant.

"Boss, buy some rice."

Inside, a middle-aged man with a mustache drank tea and glanced at it, and said arrogantly: "One tael of silver is one catty."

"So expensive!" Qin Zhen gasped, even when the Liu family was in charge, it was only 45 a catty for the fake account!
One tael of silver is more than 1000 Wen!

"Buy it or not, anyway, this is the price here." The man snorted and waved his hand, "If you don't buy it, get out, don't dirty my food here."

After the words fell, several strong men drew their knives and stepped forward, looking at her fiercely.

Qin Zhen snorted coldly, "Who says I won't buy it! Come for a catty!"

With that said, he took out the silver from his pocket and threw it over.

"Boom-"

Unbiased, he threw it on the ground in front of the man.

But when he saw the silver, the man didn't get angry, he even bent over to pick it up, and quickly put on a smiling face, "Come on, fill this young man with rice."

A strong man put away the knife, scooped up a spoonful of rice and handed it over.

Qin Zhen frowned, "Take a cloth bag?"

"One hundred cash for a cloth bag."

She gritted her teeth and finally took a deep breath: "No more! Return the money to me."

"That can't be done. There is no reason for me to refund the money."

"Are you not afraid that I will sue the county government?" Qin Zhen raised his eyebrows, looking at the refugees who were about to move around.

The man couldn't help laughing, "Hahahaha, go and sue, and see whether Master Lu will help you or me."

"It's really a headache." Qin Zhen stroked his forehead, "This is clearly money grabbing."

"Yeah, I'll grab you, what's the matter?"

At this time, an old man finally couldn't bear it and said: "Young students, you should leave quickly, they are all with the government, you can't help it. Just take it as a loss."

Qin Zhen smashed her mouth and smiled slightly. She likes to eat everything, but she just doesn't like to suffer.

Soon, the man's expression changed suddenly, and he held his stomach and yelled, "Hiss—it hurts...my stomach...my stomach hurts..."

The four strong men were a little confused, two of them rushed to check, and the remaining two were at a loss, and at this moment, Qin Zhen kicked up.

"I'll go to you!"

Immediately afterwards, another punch was thrown, and the two strong men retreated dozens of steps, hanging their feet on the threshold and falling in.

In the next second, Qin Zhen closed the doors on both sides and shouted: "Everyone, dinner is ready!"

The hundreds of people on the opposite side were stunned for a moment, and several young people reacted instantly, scrambling to grab the rice and stuff it into their arms, some made pockets out of clothes, and some put them directly into their cuffs.

There were violent rage and knocking on the door, but Qin Zhen blocked it.

"Slow down, don't hurt the old man."

"Thank you, young man! Thank you!" Several people who had grabbed the food kept bowing, with tears in their eyes.

Fortunately, many people came to their senses and began to persuade them: "Young Xia, please leave quickly, Bai Yu is a distant relative of Master Lu, and they will not spare you when the time comes."

Qin Zhen nodded, and glanced at a few young men who were still in good health, "Come here and hold the door, and wait until they finish taking the food before leaving. Remember to let the old and the young go first."

"Yes!"

Soon, several people stepped forward, took the doorknob, and said with a serious face: "Little brother, let's go!"

Qin Zhen didn't stay any longer, got some rice and packed it in his bag, then pulled the reins and continued walking.

This road passed the gate of the county government office, and I saw a few policemen standing next to the porridge shed, facing more refugees.

But in the big pot in the porridge shed, there are basically no grains of rice.

Thinking of the treasures that the dignitaries in Kyoto took at the treasure appraisal meeting, I felt ironic.

Soon, there was a sound of chasing from behind, she glanced indifferently, and speeded up.

A ruined temple in the suburbs.

Clutching her hungry stomach, as soon as she entered the door, seven or eight people looked at her, including old and young, and two young people looked at her vigilantly.

There is a Buddha statue directly opposite, but the gold leaf on its body has been scraped away, and even half of its face has been damaged.

There is no place to rest on this road, she can only get some food here before moving forward.

"Second." One of the young men called out in a low voice.

The one who was called nodded immediately, staring at her baggage.

Qin Zhen found a fairly clean place, behind the Buddha statue, and took out a piece of cake and ate it.

Soon, the two brothers surrounded her, and the others also cast their gazes at her.

Just when she was about to finish her first bite of pancake.

"Boom--"

A thunder exploded, and the figures of two young men were printed on the wall.

In an instant, they didn't know the hemp rope they brought, and were about to throw it out.

Qin Zhen said lightly: "If I were you, I would never dare to do anything."

The two of them were taken aback for a moment, but they ignored it. Their eyes suddenly looked fierce, and the rope was thrown out, and they were about to tie her up.

Suddenly, Qin Zhen's figure flickered, and he pinched the boss's neck with one hand.

The second child didn't react, but felt that his brother had been captured in a blink of an eye. He gasped and panicked: "Young hero, spare your life! Young hero, spare your life!"

"I warned you just now." Qin Zhen said coldly, putting the last bite of cake into his mouth.

"Don't beg him! It's death anyway, starving to death is no different from being killed!" Although the boss was frightened, he quickly shouted.

"It's quite backbone." Qin Zhen joked.

The boss turned his head away, panting heavily, "If you want to kill, kill! If I, Zhao Hu, frowned today, I would be inhuman!"

"elder brother!"

The second child was in a hurry, and hurriedly said to Qin Zhen: "Brother, I'm really sorry, we are desperate and want to survive, and we all don't want to die... Before the disaster, we were also good people, if we couldn't survive, Who wants to be a bandit?"
