Chapter 595: Chopsticks Float
Song Qing was about to say something when the sound of a gong broke the silence.
Many sleeping victims immediately opened their eyes and ran towards the place where the gong sounded, like vicious dogs attacking their prey.
Fortunately, although the victims were rushing to organize things in an orderly manner, no stampede occurred, which relieved Liu Mingzhi's tight heart. The people of Qingzhou were really suffering, and it would be even more worrying if a stampede occurred.
Song Qing sighed and stood up: "Let's go and see how the officials of Qingzhou Prefecture are relieving the victims. I hope you can resist the urge to kill on the spot!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded lowly and followed a pair of victims in an almost endless queue.
I don't know how long it took, but Liu Mingzhi and his wife gradually approached the porridge shack where they were serving porridge. Liu Mingzhi's frown never relaxed when he saw the victim passing by, holding a porcelain bowl.
There were no grains of rice popsicles floating in the bowl, and the color of the soup only changed slightly. I really don’t know how these victims survived on such clear soup.
"Wow..........."
A cry of about ten years old came from the front, the cry was heartbreaking!
"Little bastard, you drink two bowls of porridge when everyone else is given one. You are young and greedy. What will happen to others if you drink it? I will beat you to death for being a greedy man!"
Liu Mingzhi walked out and walked forward along the narrow aisle after listening to a loud curse and a child's cry.
What he saw was a child with a stooped body, wailing and rolling on the ground, holding his head, and a burly and powerful man waving a whip in his hand and beating the child repeatedly.
Liu Mingzhi's eyes were splitting. If he continued to beat him like this, the child would almost lose his life. Liu Mingzhi's heart twitched when he looked at the numb victims around him.
How many times have he seen such scenes before he becomes so numb? Liu Mingzhi does not blame these victims, because they themselves are also in danger.
Liu Mingzhi, who has not experienced other people's disasters, thinks he is not qualified to evaluate other people's good and evil!
"live..........."
Liu Mingzhi, who was about to stop the burly man, suddenly stopped, and opened the whip with a sharp and straight spear.
The owner of the spear was a young man of about twenty-seven or eighty years old. He was wearing bright armor and holding a spear tightly in his hand in front of the wailing child on the ground.
"Tongcai, a couple of slaps will make him feel better. Will he still be alive if you beat him like this? What does a ten-year-old child know? Does he have any sympathy at all?"
Tong Cai, a burly man, held the whip and looked at the owner of the spear with disdain: "Who was I at the time? It turned out to be General Chang Yunfeng, the commander of the army. Why, he wanted to meddle in other people's business again. I don't know which girl didn't catch it. I leaked you, what the hell!"
"How outrageous. You, a small steward of the Governor's Mansion, dare to show off your power to a fifth-grade general appointed by the imperial court. I think you are tired of living."
Before Chang Yunfeng could speak, a captain behind him couldn't help it anymore. He glared at the arrogant young talent, trying to save face for his general.
Tong Cai looked at the captain under Chang Yunfeng with disdain: "A little captain really thinks he is a green onion. Not to mention you, even your governor has to smile at me when he sees me. You What a thing!”
"I'll kill you bitch..."
Tong Cai was startled when he saw the captain who was about to charge up with a spear. He took a few steps back with his whip and looked at the captain sternly: "Be brave, you can't rebel if you want to. I'm the steward of the Governor's Mansion." , you can’t rebel if you want to!”
Chang Yunfeng pressed the captain's shoulders: "Yang Bo, don't be impulsive!"
Captain Yang Bo looked at Tong Cai angrily: "General, this bully is too much. We are guarding the safety of Qingzhou Mansion, not gangsters who bully the people!"
Chang Yunfeng closed his eyes with a painful expression: "As a general, it is important to obey orders, retreat!"
Yang Bo nodded angrily and reluctantly put away the spear in his hand: "Follow the order!"
Tong Cai saw that Yang Bo, who had been ordered to retreat by Chang Yunfeng, became arrogant again, and was sure that Yang Bo would not dare to attack him.
"Bah, isn't your grandma quite arrogant? If you can, try to put a finger on me. I'll see how your governor tells Governor Tong that you have no eggs. Sooner or later you will offend me for a bunch of victims... ....”
Tong Cai glared angrily and covered his neck, or rather, he covered the gun barrel around his neck with an expression of disbelief.
"you.........."
Before he could finish a sentence, he immediately lost his temper on the spot.
Chang Yunfeng pulled out the gun tip from Tong Cai's neck with a calm expression. Blood spattered and Tong Cai's body fell straight to the ground.
The surrounding victims with panicked expressions withdrew from the circle, leaving behind a wide open area where Tong Cai stared at them with eyes open and did not dare to make the slightest sound.
Chang Yunfeng thrust the spear in his hand hard into the ground, looked at the child on the ground and spat: "Don't you know it's enough? You can't bear it anymore, don't you know?"
Rubbing his wrists, Chang Yunfeng took off the hemp rope from the waist of a soldier behind him and threw it to the captain Yang Bo: "Tie me up and send me to the Governor's Mansion!"
Yang Bo looked at the hemp rope in his hand in shock: "General, what are you doing..."
Chang Yunfeng looked at Yang Bo with a faint smile: "You bastard, don't be so impulsive in the future. You must think twice before you act, okay? Otherwise, I won't be able to spare you even if I'm a ghost!"
"General, my subordinates can't kidnap the general. The subordinate can kill the boy. It should be the general who kidnaps me to the governor's mansion!"
"Bastard, your son hasn't been born yet. My son is already ten years old. The food I have accumulated these days is enough for the two of them to eat for a while. How will your mother-in-law raise the child by herself if you die!"
"But it's because of me, General, that you..."
"Tie him up, this is a military order!"
Yang Bo looked at Chang Yunfeng with red eyes: "Follow the order!"
Liu Mingzhi helped the child up on the ground and shook his head sadly when he saw the whip marks on his body. Fortunately, they were just superficial injuries and there was no immediate danger to his life!
"Brother, treat this child's wounds!"
"Leave it to me!"
Liu Mingzhi slowly walked forward and looked at Chang Yunfeng and the forty or fifty soldiers under his command and gently clapped his hands: "What a tough man, what a pair of brothers and comrades with deep love!"
Seeing the victim Liu Mingzhi and Chang Yunfeng walking towards him slowly, he lowered his head in shame, gritted his teeth and ordered some sergeants in the porridge shed: "Continue to give out porridge until it is finished!"
Some sergeants looked at Chang Yunfeng with admiration: "Follow the order!"
Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chang Yunfeng who was bound by a hemp rope: "He is a bloody man. What a pity. You shouldn't be so impulsive!"
Chang Yunfeng looked at Liu Mingzhi and the crowd of victims with shame and sighed.
Looking back at Brother No. 1 under his command, he looked at Mr. Liu who walked in slowly and shook his head.
"Chang is now a guilty person. He is not a good man. He has to obey orders given by an official. He knows that it is unreasonable and contrary to morality, but he still has to do it without conscience!"
Liu Mingzhi grabbed a handful of chopsticks and threw them into the porridge pot, watching the floating chopsticks and taking a deep breath.
"The law of the dragon, chopsticks float up and people's heads fall to the ground."
