Sanniang, I'll save you [Water Margin]

At the ten-mile pavilion outside the city gate, a dozen torches were inserted beside the pavilion, illuminating the inside of the pavilion clearly.

In the dark shadow of trees outside the pavilion, by the side of the dry grass beside the official road, refugees squatting in twos and threes, with dull expressions, only a few stronger ones still had some strength to pace back and forth, discussing in their mouths.

"You also dreamed that someone asked you to come here to get the porridge?"

"Isn't it, are you too?"

"No, I met a person who told me that he had a dream that someone asked him to come here to get the porridge."

"Do you think it's true?"

"Who knows... oh..."

Whether it was true or not, they were so hungry that even if there was only a little hope, they rushed over with the last bit of strength.

"I don't believe it. I see that you are all starving and dizzy. You dream of good things. How can anyone give us food for free? Those old men can't wait to eat us!" A young man said bitterly. , Spit on the ground.

Suddenly someone screamed: "Come on, come on, it's really a grain cart!"

In the darkness, a long line appeared out of nowhere, and cars with small flags with the word "grain" pushed out from the darkness. The guys pushing the cars were silent, but they moved the cars neatly. Pushed to the edge of the pavilion.

"Food!" Someone rushed forward, took out a dagger that had been prepared long ago, and stabbed at the high piles of sacks on the grain truck.

Almost at the same time, several men also made the same action.

They heard that someone was giving out porridge at the Shili Pavilion outside the south gate of Yunzhou City tonight. Although they were dubious, they also felt that this was an opportunity.If it's a liar, that's fine. If it's true, they'll grab a few bags of food and leave, and they'll fight anyone who dares to stop them.Besides, as long as they take the lead, many people will follow, and the porridge donators won't be able to control them at all.

Hehe, anyway, these grains were shipped to them, so there is nothing wrong with them taking them by themselves.

Sure enough, when they saw someone trying to grab food, the eyes of many refugees also wandered.

If the food was taken away by others because they were late, wouldn't they come for nothing?

At this moment, several men who rushed towards the grain truck fell to the ground inexplicably, unable to move, as if they were pressed on their backs by someone, unable to even turn over, and could only hum on the ground He begged for mercy.

Some refugees who had just raised their feet also quietly put their feet back.

A young man in white came out of the darkness and walked unhurriedly into the pavilion. The stone bench in the pavilion floated up by itself and slowly landed on the entrance of the pavilion. The young man in white brushed his clothes and sat down.

Everyone looked at this scene in shock, and could hardly believe their eyes.How can the stone bench move by itself?

"The Immortal Master!"

"It must be that the immortal master couldn't bear to see us people suffer, so he came to give porridge to solve our problems!"

The eyes of some old people who were already exhausted suddenly burst into hope. They didn't know where the strength came from, and they desperately ran to the front, worshiped, and knelt down.

Xiao Yutang waved his hand: "There is no need to be too polite."

The little ghost went up to help the old people up, feeling the invisible power, the old people believed in their own judgment more and more, and did not dare to disobey the immortal master, but after getting up, they were choked with tears.

"Bring those little thieves here."

The kid stepped forward and escorted a few men who were trying to rob the grain truck. They were obviously not tied up with ropes, but the men were all stiff and unable to move. They looked at Xiao Yutang as if they had seen a ghost.

With a sweep of the yin and yang mirror, the lives of these four men were transmitted to Xiao Yutang's mind.

"Ge Changguang, a native of Dagezhuang, Mizhou, usually steals chickens and dogs, fled famine after a severe drought, abandoned his eighty-year-old mother, and let her starve to death; stole food from friends in the same village, causing his family to starve to death; yesterday, the widow Liu's three-year-old Younger sons steal, kill, and eat."

"He Da, a native of Wulizhuang, Mizhou, usually likes to drink and get angry. After drinking, he got into disputes with others. He raised a knife and wiped out his whole family. He was wanted by the government and fled to Yunzhou. He raped and murdered a woman in the city of Yunzhou. Don't escape from the city, and hide yourself under the guise of being a refugee; yesterday, he collaborated with Ge Changguang to steal the widow Liu's youngest son, and raped and killed him after Liu found it."

"Jiao Zhida, a native of Heiyan Village, Yuncheng, studied since he was a child, but was obsessed with gambling. After losing all his family property, he bet his wife on the gambling table and lost his son. Don’t change your gambling nature. In order to accumulate gambling funds, he specially plundered young girls from among the refugees and sold them into brothels, killing four of the young girl’s family members in the process.”

"Xu Jiu, a native of Nanyang Village, Mizhou, has become addicted to cannibalism." Xiao Yutang glanced at this thin man with weird facial features, and his tone became colder, "Since the beginning of plotting to kill people to eat meat, now I have killed Eat 26 people."

Xiao Yutang didn't want to talk anymore: "Drag it on, let them avenge themselves."

She had already seen the ghosts who were killed by them around these people, and she knew that they were not good people just by looking at the black energy on them that represented sin, but she didn't expect them to be so cruel.

These people are too vicious, and these ghosts are not strong enough, so they can only follow them every day looking for opportunities.But Xiao Yutang is here, as long as he gives those ghosts a little bit of yin, it is enough for them to take revenge themselves.

The four men wanted to resist, but only their eyes could move, and they couldn't even yell. They could only be dragged into the shadow by the little ghosts, and soon there was the sound of gnawing and chewing.

This scene made all the refugees with ulterior motives terrified. This young man in white is really weird, so weird that it is frightening...

At this moment, a woman in a white skirt, Niaoyao Nana, came over and saluted Xiao Yutang: "My lord, everything is ready."

"Let's start cooking the porridge." Sitting on the spot, Xiao Yutang ordered, "Everyone take their own bowls and wait in line. If anyone jumps in the line and makes trouble, they will all be called out, and they will never be able to receive food."

"Yes." A tall and strong male ghost appeared from behind Xiao Yutang, and he was responsible for maintaining order.

Only then did the refugees realize that under the shadow of the tree, two hearths had been set up at some point, with a cauldron on them, and those who pushed the carts silently began to carry the sacks and pile them on the stove. behind the stage.

"Is there really porridge to drink?" They came here just with a little bit of luck that they couldn't believe, but now it seems that this little bit of luck has the hope of coming true. Many people touched the tattered rice bowl in their arms, Looking at each other, they all started to line up in front of the two cauldrons.

The flames are jumping in the stove, reflecting the thin and dirty faces, which are full of various emotions, despair, expectation, fear, confusion...

Yu Niang opened a sack with several female ghosts.

Seeing the white rice, everyone's eyes suddenly became hot: "Rice!"

"It's actually rice! Even before, I haven't eaten rice a few times!"

"That's right, we peasants haven't even eaten white flour steamed buns a few times, how can we eat this precious rice..."

"God, God, Bodhisattva who saves the suffering and the dying!" A woman cried loudly in the team, knelt on the ground and kowtowed in Xiao Yutang's direction, "Thank you son, thank you son, you saved our mother and daughter! I will definitely set up a tablet of longevity for you, and wish you prosperity and peace for generations to come... We will never forget your great kindness!"

The skinny child beside her was also pulled down to the ground by her, obediently kowtowing along with her.

Listening to her conversation, Xiao Yutang at least knew a few words. His family background might have been good before, but in the current desperate situation, he no longer has the ability to change his destiny.

Yin Yang Jing suddenly said: "There must be a lot of merit in saving this mother and child."

This child was a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty.After the main plot of the Water Margin world is over, the world will still continue to run. At that time, this child will be an important person in the world and indispensable.

Although according to his luck, he would not die in this famine, but now that Xiao Yutang saved him, Heavenly Dao will naturally credit this credit to Xiao Yutang.

"You don't need to be too polite." Xiao Yutang personally stepped forward to help the mother and son, "Your son is born extraordinary, and it is the nobleman's order. Take him well, and you will have good fortune."

The woman was overwhelmed with surprise, remembering that just now, this young man had seen the crimes of those men at a glance, and he must be the real master of heaven through people.So the son will really develop in the future?With their mother and son reduced to this point, there is still hope?

"Thank you, Immortal Master, for your guidance! Please leave your name, Immortal Master, so that my mother and son will remember your kindness."

Xiao Yutang smiled softly: "That's unnecessary."

After a while, the water was already boiling, and Yu Niang led people to pour pots of rice into the pot.Looking at the white rice, many hungry people couldn't help but swallow their saliva. This is rice, white rice. They haven't had enough to eat for a long time...

In the wilderness, countless refugees who received the news were flocking in this direction.

All newcomers will be reminded to line up by the little ghosts who maintain order. If they want to jump in line because of the large number of people or their height, they will immediately be controlled by ghosts who are not complete enough to show themselves in front of people. Xiao Yutang will decide how to punish according to his previous behavior.

If there were no major evil deeds before and no human life in his hands, hang him on a tree beside him and let him repent; Vengeful ghosts, let them avenge themselves.

After two or three similar incidents, no one dared to disobey the order.

Even if they saw a beautiful woman like Yuniang presiding over the porridge cooking, they didn't dare to say a word, for fear of being punished by the immortal master, not only would they not be able to eat, they might be exposed for their crimes in public, and even their lives would be lost.

And because they were all hungry for too long, Xiao Yutang stipulated that each of them could only drink one bowl of porridge.The porridge is so thick that it won't fall over when you put chopsticks in it. Although it can't make you very full, it can still support the consumption of the day.

Some people wanted to take advantage of the crowds of black people and eat one bowl before queuing up for the second bowl, but they couldn't escape the scanning records of the Yin-Yang Mirror, so they were immediately pointed out and received a warning. If they committed it again, they would lose their next bowl Eligibility to receive porridge for the first time.

When it was dawn in the east, Xiao Yutang announced the end of the porridge giving. At the same time and place in the evening, the porridge would still be given to everyone.

Under the astonished eyes of everyone, Xiao Yutang waved his hand, and those who cooked porridge, carried food, and maintained order all disappeared.Then the stove, the cauldron and the remaining food disappeared under their noses.

Almost everyone knelt down at the same time, shouting "Master Immortal Mercy".Such means, such a heart, no one except the immortal master can have.
