Cheng Yu is a ruthless person.
When I looked through the history of troubled times, I saw two words written all over the book: cannibalism!
As a ruthless person, Cheng Yu would definitely dare to eat people in troubled times.
"Sir, are we really going to do this?"
A soldier following Cheng Yu asked in a trembling voice.
They were in a hidden forest outside the city. There were hundreds of corpses piled around them, including men, women, old and young. They were all ordinary people who had starved to death and had been plundered from all the counties and villages within Yanzhou. corpse.
"If we don't do this, more people will starve to death."
Cheng Yu's eyeballs were bloodshot, but his face was full of determination, and he said firmly: "Use the dead to save the lives of others. They deserve to die, and we are not too evil. Cut off the flesh of the dead and save the lives of others." Remove the characteristics, smoke it into dried meat, and mix it into the grain. We still have a few days of grain and need this meat for emergency relief."
The body lay on the snow.
It's snowing now, it's cold, it's not rotten and smelly.
The soldiers heard this and drew their swords helplessly.
In troubled times, it is not strange to change one's child and eat. If you want to eat people, you can do it as long as you are cruel. However, no matter how cruel Cheng Yu is, he still feels a little uncomfortable when he sees the decomposed corpses, but in order to survive, in order to survive more There were so many people, but he was completely willing to sacrifice himself.
"If word gets out, sir, you will be stigmatized!"
The soldier said again.
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "For the sake of my lord, I don't care! It's just a bad name, not worth mentioning!"
He could imagine the consequences if word got out.
Either Cao Cao will bear this infamy with him, or Cao Cao will kill him and give an explanation to the outside world.
But no matter what the consequences were, Cheng Yu really didn't care.
He is such a person. Once he identifies with Cao Cao, he will never betray him again, and it doesn't matter what he does.
"gentlemen!"
The soldier's voice was choked with sobs, and he felt that the gentleman was actually very great.
——
Chen Zhou and his team finally returned to the outside of Puyang City.
Not long after entering the city, I saw Cao Cao leading his men towards him.
"Wat it!"
Cao Cao came over excitedly and said: "We have worked hard, where is our food?"
Seeing that Chen Zhou was back, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Zhou shook his head and said: "There is no food, but...open all the old documents!"
Suddenly!
On those carriages, countless belongings appeared in front of everyone.
There were more than a hundred carriages in total, and they were either gold or jewelry. They were all valuables and hard currency. For the Han people who had developed to the stage of bartering, these things could be used to buy food.
"So many belongings!"
Guo Jia said in shock: "Du Zhi, where did you get it?"
Chen Zhou said: "Where did you get it? I can't tell you. You can just ask Master and Lao Dian later. There are more than 110 carts here. Is it enough for you to buy food?"
Someone immediately went to quickly count it, and sure enough, it was more than a hundred cars.
All inside were property.
The wealth had been revealed, and Cao Cao quickly mobilized his troops to protect the property and bring it back to the warehouse first.
Chen Zhou deliberately exposed himself to those who had food to sell, letting them know that Cao Cao was about to buy food, so they should go back and prepare their own food.
"Watatsuki, thanks to you this time!"
Cao Cao gratefully held Chen Zhou's hand.
The two grown men were holding hands in public. Chen Zhou felt strange, so he could only pull his hand back and said: "This is what I should do. Ask the young master and Lao Dian about the specific situation. If the master has nothing else to do, I want to go back and rest first.”
Cao Cao knew that Chen Zhou could make suggestions and solve problems, but he absolutely did not want to interfere.
Just a fake job.
Based on the property in front of him, Cao Cao, who was in vain, could give it to him unconditionally, and he could do whatever he wanted, and that was totally fine.
"Lao Dian, send Du back."
Cao Cao said enthusiastically: "Move some more gold and send it to Tozhi's house. The others will follow me back to discuss how to buy food."
Although they couldn't understand where Chen Zhou got so much property, having these things could solve their urgent needs and stabilize the morale of the army.
You can put aside your worries for the time being.
"Buying food? Why buy food?"
At this time, Cheng Yu happened to be back from outside the city.
There was also a cart of meat that was already dried.
Although the food shortage crisis has not yet officially erupted, people have already started to starve to death, especially those who have left their hometowns and become displaced due to the war.
"Zhongde is back."
Cao Cao said: "Sir, you helped us find more than a hundred carts of property, enough for us to buy food, but... is that the food prepared by Zhongde?"
His eyes looked towards the cart of dried meat.
It doesn't look like a lot, but in this environment, it is not easy to prepare some food. Cao Cao said: "Thank you for your hard work, Zhongde, let's go! Let's go back first and bring the food back."
Cheng Yu was still confused and didn't want to let them know about the meat, but he had no choice but to take the meat back with him.
Meeting hall.
Cao Ang and Dian Wei told the whole process.
Everyone present was surprised.
"Doing this is against the laws of nature. How could Du Zhi do this?"
Xun Yu was worried and couldn't accept it.
Cheng Yu's eyes lit up.
yes!
Why didn't I think of robbing tombs? This is a hundred times better than cannibalism. The idea of crossing over is better!
"Master said that taking the things of the dead and reviving them does not harm the laws of heaven and is still a meritorious deed!"
Cao Ang had no choice but to explain: "We are not destroying the coffins and corpses, we are just taking the property, and after taking it, we will seal the royal tomb."
Guo Jia said: "Du Zhi is still brave!"
"People light candles and ghosts blow out lamps, but is it true?"
Zhong Yao seemed to be more interested in this.
Cao Ang had no way to explain this, so he could only look at Dian Wei.
Everyone else looked at Dian Wei, the ghost blowing the lamp was beyond their understanding.
"Sir, that is an agreement between the living and the dead."
Dian Wei saw "ghost blowing out the lamp" with his own eyes, and said in a very solemn tone: "If the dead are willing to let us in to get our belongings, we will use candles as an agreement. Once the candles are blown out, it means that we have taken enough. Blowing out the lamp is a warning. If we If you continue to take it and refuse to leave, you will definitely die inside. The candle we had in the southeast corner really went out for no reason at that time, and that was a ghost blowing out the light."
In the meeting hall, there was silence at first.
"Watari also has the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods?"
Xi Zhong said in surprise.
In this way, doesn’t Chen Zhou know everything and be omnipotent?
This is a bit awesome!
"Congratulations, lord, for getting an all-round talent like Watanabe!"
Xun You congratulated.
Cao Cao said loudly: "I can cross it, so why worry about the world being unfair?"
Ha ha……
As he said this, he couldn't help laughing.
"Mr. Cheng, where did you get so much meat?"
Cao Ren suddenly opened the cloth strips covering Cheng Yu's car, and saw that it was filled with dried meat, and the pieces looked quite delicious.
In today's environment, can we still get so much meat?
Cao Cao and the others were shocked and felt that Cheng Yu was also powerful!
Even meat is available.
"Don't!"
Cheng Yu wanted to stop it, but it was too late. He did not dare to expose such a shady matter. Now he lowered his head helplessly and said: "Lord, I'm sorry for you. It was my fault."
