The entire Nanxiang Prefecture was affected, and the cold wind howled in the streets and alleys like a knife.
The ice picks hanging under the eaves exude a sharp and cold chill.
All the people were forced to stay indoors, afraid to step out of the door. People were wrapped in cotton wool to keep warm.
The body was curled up and shivering.
on the street.
There are dragon guards from the guard station wearing flying fish uniforms, who can protect themselves, drive carriages, drag supplies, knock on doors and drop off supplies.
There are not many things, and the carrots and greens are all gone, but they can save lives for the people.
There are also scholars wearing Confucian robes, walking in the streets and alleys, writing articles and calligraphy to ensure peace.
"Don't the imperial court know the situation here? These vegetables are already moldy, why do they have to be shipped?"
"It's good to have food. We don't care about it. We just send whatever is delivered. Isn't that what we eat?"
"Hey! If we fall, what will happen to the people in this city? The head of the Ministry of Household Affairs is inspecting but staying in the next door house. No one will know what happened here..."
Long Wei, who was responsible for the security, sighed and did not have much hope for the future.
If things continue like this, Nanxiang Mansion and Nansu Mansion will become frozen dead places.
far away.
Long Wei saw a family, two adults and two children, wrapped in shabby cotton wool, carrying a body out of the house.
Long Wei chased after him to investigate and learned that an old man was trying to give cotton wool to keep out the cold to his grandson, but he couldn't resist and froze to death.
"You go back, lest you can't come back after this trip, leave the old man's body to us for disposal!"
Long Wei dragged the empty cart and put the old man's body on it.
These are ordinary people who have never practiced cultivation. They cannot withstand the cold wind like a knife for too long.
If it takes more than a quarter of an hour, it may turn into an ice sculpture.
The tears of the two young couples turned into ice crystals, and their eyelashes were covered with ice flowers. They took their children and knelt on the ground to kowtow and say goodbye to their relatives.
I also express my gratitude to Long Wei.
"Master, when will this day end? It's too hard, too hard..." the young man choked.
Long Wei was silent, his eyes slightly red, and after a moment he shook his head and said, "I don't know!"
"We don't know when the end will be."
"We don't know why it's like this..."
"Let's go back!"
These dragon guards dragged the old man's body away, and behind them could be heard the crying of the man's family.
They are all young, have not experienced the devastation of decadent ideas, and their hearts have not yet cooled down.
This scene is just a microcosm of the city of Nanxiang Prefecture.
In countless corners, scenes of life and death were ruthlessly staged. Some people fell while others continued to move forward.
What remains unchanged is... some scholars and Longwei who still have hope for the future and love this land in their hearts.
They are walking backwards in this bone-chilling human world.
Light yourself up and warm the world.
Even if someone cannot hold on and falls down, someone will stand up and join in...
…
On the way from the capital to Nanxiang Mansion, Lin Yi was concerned about the victims there, but in order to let Yan Shuangwu and the Dragon Guards catch up, he could only slow down the holy beast slightly.
at this time.
Lin Yi saw officers and soldiers transporting supplies under him on the chariot. The long convoy was like a long queue. The seal said it was the disaster relief supplies from the Imperial Household Department.
Now Lin Yi is about to break through the sixth level, and his spiritual awareness and eyesight are astonishing.
"Materials from the Ministry of Household Affairs are also arriving in Nanxiang Mansion. Everything is definitely getting better..."
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little guy, get down!"
Lin Yi called the holy beast a little guy. The key was that the holy beast was very useful and pulled the chariot down.
Upon seeing this, Yan Shuangwu led the prince's honor guard and the elite dragon guards to chase after him.
'This is the Ministry of Household Disaster Relief Materials. Why do we have to stop at the inn? Lin Yi frowned.
Disaster relief funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs are not allowed to stay unless the horses are replaced, but Lin did not see the horses being replaced.
Instead, they started unloading the goods even before they reached Nanxiang Prefecture.
Lin Yi felt that there must be something wrong here, and decided to go there first to find out the truth, but exposing his identity might alert him.
He asked the little beast to stay while he used the Xun Gua. Yufeng rushed over and blended into the team.
Enter the inn.
The number of officials in the inn was beyond Lin Yi's imagination, and Lin Yi was frightened by a few of them.
In the small inn, several big figures came unexpectedly, including the prefect and fellow magistrates wearing the official hats of the fifth rank.
There are also Longwei Qianhu and Baihu.
'Why did they come to the inn? Let go of the inn and come over to guide the inn officials in their work? '
Lin Yi thought this in his heart, but soon he found that he had been slapped in the face, and endless anger arose in his heart...
"After checking this batch of disaster relief materials with the disaster relief funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs, we found that more than 30 million taels of silver and more than 700 carloads of supplies have arrived from the capital."
"Now at Qingfeng Station, there are still 21 million taels of silver and 500 carts of supplies...according to the rules, 3 million taels of silver and more than 100 carts of supplies are left."
"However, I purchased more than 100 carts of supplies from merchants to replace the more than 100 carts of supplies from the Ministry of Revenue. We have to leave 200 carts of supplies."
"The supplies are not a big deal. They still have to be resold by merchants. It's okay to keep more money, but don't need as many supplies trucks!"
"..."
A group of officials were sitting on the table, discussing the whereabouts of disaster relief funds and relief materials, and their faces were red.
'Damn it! '
Lin Yi gritted his teeth, his eyes flashed coldly, and he was angry: "These officials deserve to die. No wonder the poor rats in the household department are crying, but they still failed to solve the plight of the people!"
"Exchanging supplies and substituting inferior ones for better ones?"
"They even dare to touch disaster relief funds, how many brains do they have!"
Lin Yi couldn't bear it. He walked straight towards the post station, his eyes scared away a few officers and soldiers, looked at the group of officials who were still arguing, and said with a smile: "You adults are so elegant, what are you discussing here? I see there are so many people outside. Good stuff, does everyone who sees it have a share?"
Uh-huh!
Eyes fell on Lin Yi one after another. They looked at Lin Yi and frowned.
How did a young kid get into the inn?
"Someone, kick this kid out!"
A seventh-grade county magistrate in charge of Qingfeng Station directly asked the government officials to bombard the people.
Lin Yi sneered and said: "My lords, why are you doing this? You can't let all the good things go to you, you have to leave a share for me, right? Otherwise... I will go crazy!"
"Going mad?"
"Hahaha……"
Several officials laughed like pigs. Lin Yi was wearing silver dragon soft armor, and all his Qi had been restrained. His Qi reading technique looked no different from ordinary people.
The middle-aged man wearing the magistrate's hat said calmly: "This is the court's disaster relief supplies. You should know this, little brother, but you have the courage to break into the inn and ask for a favor from me. It is a bit brave."
"Who is this little brother from? Which college is your bachelor's degree? Let me make it clear, I might give you a favor for the sake of my acquaintance!"
The middle-aged prefect had some foresight and knew that Lin Yi's background was not simple. How could an ordinary young boy be so calm and composed?
Maybe he was the son of the dean of a certain academy, and he might come and ask for a share of the pie.

Chapter 397 may still be under review~
