Chapter 303： Look for

Qi Haoran painted his exposed skin a sallow yellow, and stood with Feibai at the foot of the mountain outside Zhaohua City, like two victims who were forced to run away from home. Qi Haoran is only fifteen years old this year, and he is still a teenager. Wrapped in a wide beggar's uniform, no one can see his sturdiness, and Feibai has always been thin and small. Although he is two years older than Qi Haoran, he looks almost the same. He is dressed in tattered, stinking beggars. The clothes are one foot deep and one foot shallow following Qi Haoran's side.

It wasn't that he didn't want to walk normally, but the shoes on his feet were tattered, and the sole of his left foot was a little damaged. As soon as he walked, it was the same as stepping on the ground with bare feet. There were a lot of gravel on the ground, and it was too painful.

The two went into the mountain as they walked, without saying a word, they dug up some grass stems from the ground and stuffed them into their mouths to chew at noon.

In the evening, Fei Bai was lying on the grass with his feet spread out and looking at the white clouds passing through the sky through the gap between the leaves. He thought that he would be the next white cloud to drift away. Haven't eaten, if those grass stalks are anything.

Feibai turned his head and glanced at his young master. Seeing that he was digging grass stems hard, he wanted to cry without tears. When did the young master like to eat these things so much?

Qi Haoran was even more silent. After digging up the stalk, he stuffed some of it into his mouth, and threw the rest to Feibai. He looked into the depths of the mountain, thought about it, and said to Feibai, "Wait for me here, I Go in and find something."

"Master, no, brother, why are you going into the mountain?" Fei Bai got up quickly and discouraged: "Let's go ahead, my stomach is too hungry." The last sentence Fei Bai was depressed voice said.

But Qi Haoran glared at him and said, "I'll go in and see if there are any wild fruits. You lie here and wait for me."

How dare Feibai let Qi Haoran in alone, if the eldest son finds out about this, his skin will not be peeled off?

But in the end he succumbed to Qi Haoran's fierce eyes.

Qi Haoran went to the mountains to look for it. It took about half an hour to come out, and he came out with some wild fruits in his clothes.

But the wild fruit is sour and astringent, and the more he eats, the more hungry he becomes. After Feibai eats two, he can't eat it anymore. He felt his stomach and thought, he might as well not eat it.

Qi Haoran took one in one hand and stuffed it into his mouth, while giving Feibai a veiled look, Feibai could only continue eating.

Qi Haoran once heard Mu Yangling talk about the tragic life of the refugees. This wild fruit does not seem to have a full stomach, but if he eats a lot, his stomach will feel full, at least there is a little nutrition, and it can replenish water. At least people can't starve to death, so grass stalks and wild fruits are the things that the refugees who have fled will choose.

Qi Haoran had a feeling that he was being watched, and he didn't believe it. He had done so much, and the other party would doubt his identity.

There are more than 40,000 people, old and young, indicating that the other party is kind-hearted, at least he can't bear to see those old, weak, sick and disabled starve to death like this. To a certain extent, he is also weak, right?

Well, he is only fifteen years old this year.

Qi Haoran walked forward for a while, and there was a sudden noise in the grass. He and Feibai seemed to be taken aback. They stared at the grass with wide eyes. The two adults came out from behind the grass and saw the two of them. He laughed and said, "Two stinky boys, it's fortunate that we are not wild boars, otherwise, if you are as dumb as you, we won't be beaten by wild boars?"

Qi Haoran stared at them nervously, swallowed, and said, "I, we have nothing to eat."

The face of the other party changed when he heard what he said, "Someone robbed you of food? Even two and a half old children robbed things. It's really not human."

The other one squinted at Qi Haoran and Feibai, and asked, "I hear your accent is not from Tongchuan Prefecture, where are you from?"

Feibai's tears were about to flow down, and he wiped his eyes and said, "We are from Xingyuan Mansion, uncle, if you don't rob us, then, can you give us something to eat?"

Feibai's emotional performance is much better than Qi Haoran. After all, he is always serving people. Qi Haoran is far inferior to others in terms of observing words and expressions.

The squinting uncle immediately took out a piece of sesame cake from his pocket and handed it to Feibai, Feibai's eyes lit up, and he immediately tore most of the sesame cake to Qi Haoran.

Qi Haoran frowned, but he still took it and stuffed it into his mouth slowly.

The uncle asked with a smile: "You are from Xingyuan Mansion? Then why did you come here?"

He didn't ask, but when he asked, Fei Bai could only stop eating temporarily and said with tears in his eyes: "My father and my mother heard that the food prices in Tongchuan Prefecture are high, so they collected a lot of corn from our village. , I plan to take it and sell it to make some money. Who knows that our car was robbed by a group of people before we reached that Jiangyou. My father protected us and escaped. Silver, but all the things we bought have been robbed, we can only go to Xingyuan Mansion, thankfully my mother didn't come out with us this time..."

This sentence Feibai has been practiced many times, and now he is reciting it like a fluent.

The two asked about his family's situation in Xingyuan Mansion. Feibai all applied the situation of Mu's family. In addition, he followed Qi Haoran and went to the ground. When it comes to planting corn, he is a righteous man, which makes the two uncles envious. Said: "Your Xingyuan House has corn seeds given by General Qi. Although there is a severe drought this year, there is still a way to survive."

Complimenting his son, Fei Bai was not clumsy at all, and said gratefully: "My father also said that if there were no seeds sent by General Qi this year, our family would not be able to survive, and a grain of rice would not survive. If it is confiscated, it is good that the wheat can keep the seeds.”

The two uncles had tears in their eyes, and said bitterly, "It's all the damned court. Back then, General Qi gave most of the seeds to the emperor, just wanting the emperor to distribute them to the common people. Who knew that the dog emperor would actually be with the family. If you take it privately, the ruler does not care about the people, but only cares about his own interests, and the country will not be the country.”

Feibai's eyes widened, even Qi Haoran was stunned. How could two uncles who looked at mediocre have such knowledge?

The two uncles thought they scared the two children, wiped their tears and said, "Forget it, what are you talking about? Fortunately, we have a celestial master who came down to rescue us, two little brothers, why don't you come with us, Tongchuan? Although the Mansion and Xingyuan Mansion are bounded by the border, it takes a long time to walk, you have nothing to eat, and the road is chaotic, it is better to rest here for a while, and then leave when the road is peaceful."

Feibai looked at them vigilantly, "You won't take us to eat, will you?"

The two uncles laughed and said, "You two are so thin that you can have a few bites of meat, don't worry, we don't eat people."

"Then, where do you have food?" Fei Bai swallowed and asked.

The two uncles looked at the two children with pity, nodded and said, "Yes, I can't guarantee that I'm full, but I won't be hungry."

Feibai breathed a sigh of relief, then pulled Qi Haoran and said, "Then let's go, we have the strength and can work."

The two uncles nodded with a smile and left with Feibai and Qi Haoran. On the way, an uncle looked at Qi Haoran and asked Feibai, "Why doesn't your brother like to talk?"

Fei Bai's eyes were red again, and he said in a low mood: "At that time, my father pushed me, and when he saw that my brother was entangled, he went back to rescue him, and threw himself on him. I don't like talking much anymore."

Father died to save himself, and his temperament changed a lot. The two uncles nodded secretly.

Qi Haoran rolled his eyes in his heart, this is not what we said before, forget it, let Feibai play freely.
