Deng Yifei kept hearing similar words, but he dared not say anything.

If you don't have the ability, you won't starve. As a disciple of Tianyun gate, Deng Yifei knows very well that in the recent millennium, not only the number of monsters in the southern region is decreasing on a large scale, but also the number of ordinary beasts.

When the number of victims is large, they are like locusts. They will eat all the wild animals in the mountains and fields, and they won't last long!

Moreover, with their current physical strength, whether they can run past the beast is a problem.

As for finding food, it is even more impossible.

Autumn has long passed, and winter is about to pass. There are almost no crops in the world.

Even if it is begging, there is little hope.

If it's a person, there may be good people willing to give something to eat, but if it's a large group, hundreds of

The city gate will not be open to them!

"Lord Jianling, are they really dead?"

"There is no other way to see the Western Qin State and aristocratic families everywhere!" Chen Hao affirmed, "although the West Qin State has been recruiting a large number of soldiers in recent years, there should still be grain in storage. Aristocratic families and patriarchal families also have grain in their hands, especially the big aristocratic family, which controls a large part of the fields. If these forces do not come forward, they can only die, or steal, or rob!"

If it's Chen Hao's previous life, Chen Hao can also say that these people can rebel and raise the flag of rebellion

However, the problem is that the force in this world is too powerful, and the strong are far superior to ordinary people!

Due to the monopoly of advanced cultivation methods and cultivation resources, the vast majority of strong martial arts are gathered in the hands of major forces, and there are few masters in casual cultivation.

Even if hundreds of thousands or millions of refugees gather together and face the broken heaven realm, magic realm, and even the strong realm of aristocratic families, clans, and imperial courts, they will only be killed!

Therefore, gathering people to revolt, Jiegan uprising, in this world, it is just a joke, just like the riots in that small town, it was soon put out.

Unless there are aristocratic families and clans willing to jump out and take the lead in making trouble!

However, Chen Hao has seen such things as aristocratic family and zongmen a lot, and they will never stand up.

There is no sign of the collapse of the West Qin state.

"But now they have..."

Chen Hao said softly, "so no one cares about their life or death for the time being!"

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, the West Qin State should be in charge, but it will take a little time. Whether it can hold out until then depends on their luck!"

Deng Yifei talked for three days and finally arrived at shangjiucheng.

Before arriving at Shangjiu City, Deng Yifei saw a dense crowd of refugees outside Shangjiu city and smelled a strong smell of blood.

The gate of Shangjiu city was not completely closed, but half open.

Two rows of neatly dressed city guards stood on both sides of the city gate with bloody blades, looking at the many refugees indifferently.

At their feet, more than 100 bodies fell.

The gate was empty, and no one came in or out of it at all.

Outside the city gate, there are three small congee stalls, and Deng Yifei can see the hot gas coming out of the barrel.

The line of refugees was long. At each stall, there were more than a dozen soldiers guarding the porridge kitchen to maintain the order of the refugees. At their feet, there were also a few bodies piled up.

When Deng Yifei arrived near the city, another man in his 40s with a kind smile walked out of the city gate with 13 warriors. He said hello to the city guards, came to the gate and took a look at the refugees, Shouted loudly, "our state of Zhou needs to recruit some servant girls. As long as there are 10-13-year-old children, there should be 10 men and 10 women respectively. They need to sign a deed of betrayal. If you want, you can come to me!"

The refugees became a sensation in an instant, and even the refugees waiting in line for porridge had left the queue.

Almost all the parents with children rushed to the middle-aged man.

The first person who rushed to the middle-aged man pushed the child in front of him: "adult, what do I think of my son? He is very smart and can do any work quickly!"

A refugee raised his daughter over his head and shouted, "my Lord, my daughter is very clever and obedient. Buy her!"

Others stretched out their dirty hands, spread out two gold coins and shouted, "Sir, this is my last money, and I'll give it all to you. As long as you take my child away and give him a bite of rice..."

“……”

The warrior behind the middle-aged man stopped these refugees, but the noisy voice and the stench on his face still made the middle-aged man frown.

"All of you get away from me, line up and come one by one. Don't crowd, or I won't accept any!" The middle-aged man's cultivation is not weak. He is a real yuan martial artist. With a loud roar, the powerful forces immediately calmed down all the refugees, "the rules stand here first. If you don't obey the rules, don't line up, shoot to kill, and if you don't plan to sell, get away!"

The city guards looked over there and were indifferent.

The refugees jostled and soon lined up.

"This child is ten years old? What do I think, it's only seven or eight years old?"

"My Lord, he is ten years old, but he is too hungry. If you let him eat enough and feed him for a few days, he will grow tall!"

"No, next!" The middle-aged man rubbed his eyebrows, attracted martial artists around him, and said, "you first select a boy who is not one meter six and a girl who is not one meter five. Don't bring it to me!"

Not all children aged 10 to 13 meet this condition, but middle-aged men still want to screen it, otherwise, these refugees will definitely deceive him.

Anyway, there are so many people. There are still a lot of people left after screening.

Deng Yifei stopped and looked for a while, watching them choose boys and girls like animals, and finally walked to the city gate.

This matter is beyond his control.

What's more, it's better to sell yourself as a domestic servant than to starve to death outside!

"Stop, who are you?" Deng Yifei was stopped by the city guard.

"I'm a disciple of Tianyun sect. I'm here to do the task!" Deng Yifei took out the tianyunmen identity plate and handed it to the city guard who stopped him. The city guard glanced at him and nodded at him, "you go in. After entering the door, walk directly to the right. At the end is our city guard camp. When you get there, you tell them you are here to do the task, and someone will arrange you!"

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

The city guard said politely.

Entering shangjiucheng, Deng Yifei felt as if he had entered another world.

On the street, the number of beggars is indeed a little more, but the pedestrians and street vendors still make shangjiucheng look a little prosperous, which is incompatible with the scene outside the city.

Deng Yifei found the city guard camp according to the order of the city guard. After revealing his identity, he registered his name and sect, was brought into the camp by the person who received him, and handed it to a 20-year-old city guard soldier.

The city guard had a straight face and looked very serious. When he saw Deng Yifei, he immediately asked:

"What's your name and from which sect?"

"Tianyun gate disciple, Deng Yifei!"

Hearing that it was a disciple of Tianyun gate, the young city guard's face immediately eased a little: "have you eaten? It's hard to come all the way?"
