Capítulo 86: Chapter 86 Human life is worthless
The whole family slept on the main bunk of the inn that night.
The old lady went to bed early, Uncle Ma went for a walk somewhere, Gu Fei took out the remaining sheepskins, and several women were sewing sheepskin jackets under the oil lamp.
It's getting colder day by day, so I'll need this jacket soon.
While sewing, Gu Fei secretly took out some scraps of silver and asked Chen and the others to sew them to the corners of their clothes. "I see that the road is getting more and more unsafe. If something happens, someone in the family gets separated, I will give it to you." A little money is better than nothing. If we really get separated, we will find a way to meet up in Ping'an City." Gu
Sanlang came over and said with a smile, "Then let's sew more silver into my coat."
She patted him and said, "This is just in case. Our family members have to be together anyway."
When the time came for the garrison, Mrs. Chen blew out the oil lamp and let him sleep.
Everyone was planning to cook in the yard again when they got up early. The shopkeeper was a very particular person and didn't allow them to cook in the front yard, so he drove them all to the back yard.
While making breakfast, two guys from the inn came to the backyard to chop wood and started chatting.
A guy said: "Someone died over there on the corner of the street, you know? I just went to see it."
The other guy shook his head and struck down with an axe, "Not surprising, I heard an old man died outside the town a few days ago. Starved to death."
The man waved his hand, "These two are not starved to death, a woman and a boy, they must be mother and son. I heard that they were beaten to death, it seems that they were trying to grab food. There was a mouthful on the ground. Damn it, there's blood on that woman's head!"
The two were talking, and everyone making breakfast in the backyard heard it. Lian'er, who was lighting the fire, suddenly dropped the firewood in his hand and ran out like crazy.
Qian scolded her from behind: "Damn girl, where are you going? You're crazy!"
Gu Fei shuddered and ran out too.
At this time, several men also reacted, looked at each other, and walked out in unison.
Gu Fei followed Lian'er to the corner of the street and saw a broken iron pot thrown on the ground, the inside of the pot was clean.
Two people were lying next to the wall.
The woman was lying on her back with a blood hole on her forehead. The blood had already condensed.
The boy was sitting against the wall, his neck tilted to one side, his face purple.
Their baggage was scattered on the ground, and a few tattered cotton-padded jackets were exposed.
There are some scattered yellow spots on the bluestone floor, which look like cornmeal.
Lian'er rushed over and burst into a heart-rending scream, "Mother——"
"Brother——"
Gu Fei bit her lip, tears flowing down silently.
The two people who were still alive yesterday fell here in this posture today.
I thought I could survive by getting cornmeal, but I didn't know that cornmeal turned out to be a life-threatening talisman.
Several men also came here and watched silently.
A nearby house opened the door and a woman stood at the door, "Is this someone you know?"
"Take him away and bury him quickly. It would be unlucky to die here!"
Everyone was silent.
Lian'er lay on her mother's body and cried for a while, then crawled next to her brother, hugging her brother's body and shaking her body, "Xiao Song, wake up, wake up, sister is here, sister will take you home. "
The boy's head hung weakly on one side, shaking continuously with Lian'er's movements.
Aunt Liu, the village chief's wife, also followed over. She sighed, walked forward and put her hand on Lian'er's shoulder, "My daughter, your mother and brother are gone. There is nothing you can do about it. Human lives are worthless in this world."
"It's better to bury them quickly, before they are eaten by wild dogs."
