Zhang Bao walked and waited for the carriage.
Arrive at the city gate.
But outside the city gate, there were already many refugees crowded.
There were a few soup kitchen tents set up, but it seemed it wasn't time to give soup yet, so there were no people around.
Zhang Bao was very surprised.
This is surprising.
When they entered the city, there was no one there so early in the morning.
Why are there so many refugees in less than a month?
Looking at the tents set up by many refugees, it seems that they have been here for a long time.
Zhang Bao inquired for a while at the city gate.
Only then did I realize that they had indeed gathered together in the past few days.
Moreover, the newly arrived Ma Junhou ordered that in order to prevent the rebel spies from sneaking into the city, the refugees were all placed outside the city and were not allowed to enter the city. This led to the gathering of refugees outside the city.
Zhang Bao couldn't help but nodded.
Although this is inevitably a bit indifferent, it is the safest way in such extraordinary times.
If those rebels knew that the county government's defense force was so weak, and took the opportunity to infiltrate some troops, cause chaos inside the city, and then take the opportunity to cause trouble outside the city, the county government might be in danger.
Just as Zhang Bao was thinking.
I saw a group of refugees swarming in one direction.
Zhang Bao took a look.
It was several porridge tents that brought out a lot of gruel.
Many refugees were crowded there in confusion.
This is strange. From the looks of it, it doesn’t look like the government’s actions. In this year of great calamity, is there really a kind-hearted rich man?
Zhang Bao watched for a while and was about to turn around and go back to the city.
But suddenly I heard a noise coming from a soup kitchen shack.
Zhang Bao frowned.
Come closer.
Outside a porridge shed, many refugees were holding gapped bowls of sea and gathered in a circle to watch the excitement.
There was a rogue-like young man inside, shouting and cursing at a woman in white.
There was also a young man lying on the ground holding his stomach.
Lying on the broken mat next to her was a pale little girl, no more than eleven or twelve years old. She was holding a small bundle and looking at the people in front of her with a bewildered expression.
The woman who was scolded looked like she was in her prime.
Her skin is as white as snow and her neck is graceful.
A pair of slender arms are now on the light willow waist.
The beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.
His handsome face was red with anger, and he was obviously trying his best to suppress his anger in the face of the scoundrel's dirty words.
"You said you drank our porridge, what proof is there?"
"So many people drank my porridge, why did something happen to you?"
"You...you are obviously here to cause trouble!"
While talking.
There was a glint of light in the corner of the woman's eyes.
He stamped his feet angrily.
"Who caused trouble?"
"Don't think that you are a living Bodhisattva by giving us food to eat. Do you want to kill us by poisoning us?"
"Either we go to the official!"
"Either you come back with me, take care of my brothers and sisters, and then you can leave."
The young man said with a frivolous expression, his eyes full of metaphors.
People around him were also whispering.
From the words of everyone, Zhang Bao finally understood the cause of the matter.
turn out to be.
The two men said that their girl drank the porridge of the woman in white this morning.
After that I had unbearable abdominal pain.
Now the other person also has a stomachache.
I have to let the woman in white give me an explanation.
It's not enough to pay for it, you have to go home with them!
"you--"
"You are obviously——"
"Don't make trouble here, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The woman in white saw the evil lust in the man's eyes and instantly understood what was going on.
"Are we causing trouble?"
"There's obviously something wrong with your porridge!"
"Maybe it's because they poisoned us!"
"Everyone, come and see!"
"This person is not from our Sanhe County, but he is giving porridge here. He clearly has bad intentions!"
The scolding man yelled at the people around him.
Many people who didn't know the truth also pointed at the woman in white.
Zhang Baozheng wanted to see what was strange about the little girl.
But he happened to see the man lying on the side wailing, intentionally or unintentionally, twisting the little girl's leg.
The little girl seemed to have reacted, covering her stomach with her baggage, and the expression on her face became painful.
But the fear in her expression far outweighed the pain.
It's obviously done on purpose.
Zhang Bao understood instantly.
This little girl was clearly coerced by these two men into pretending to be sick.
Not to mention the man lying on the ground wailing.
Just looking at the place he was covering, he changed it several times as his body continued to struggle.
But that’s not right. If someone dares to come out to give porridge during such a disaster, how can there be any fault? Why does this woman seem to have no background at all? Except for a few servants, there were no guards around him, and judging from his reaction just now, he looked a little naive. It was a blessing from God that this porridge shop was not robbed.
But without any background, where did he get so much rice?
Zhang Bao was a little strange.
But if this person really has the skills, he can make some friends. It just so happens that his restaurant has just opened, and there is a huge shortage of everything. Judging from the clothes of this woman, she is definitely not an ordinary person.
"stop!"
"In broad daylight!"
"You are messing around here, do you really think that all of us are blind?!"
Now that Zhang Bao had made up his mind, he shouted.
Hear Zhang Bao's words.
The onlookers instantly moved out of the way.
Zhang Bao's figure was exposed.
"who are you?"
"I told you, don't mind your own business?!"
"Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
When the man saw Zhang Bao coming out, his face suddenly became ferocious and he said viciously to Zhang Bao.
"go away!"
Zhang Bao cursed.
I don't want to deal with this kind of mindless garbage.
Unexpectedly, the man behind him became so angry that he came up and wanted to attack Zhang Bao. The woman in white took a look, lightly tapped her foot, turned over and jumped out of the porridge shed.
He kicked the man in the air.
The man somersaulted and fell out.
He happened to bump into the lying man, and stepped on his legs. The man on the ground sat up with a groan.
His face instantly turned whiter than the paper.
Covered in cold sweat, he fell to the ground and twitched.
After a while, he died.
"Killing!"
"Killing!"
"Help!"
The young man shouted at the top of his voice.
The woman in white was even more pale and stood there with a bewildered look on her face.
