The winter night comes especially early, Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun are still discussing the details, and night has already fallen.

As night comes, the chill brought by the howling north wind is even stronger, and snowflakes even fall in the sky.

Although it is just a little snow, for the elderly, weak women and children in the village who are short of food and clothing, it is almost impossible to escape from disasters in the wind and snow. They are afraid that they will be frozen to death on the side of the road if they can't walk a few miles.

This is also the contradiction between the island rebels.

Resist, there is an overwhelming gap in combat power between the two sides. The uprising is basically a death sentence, but if it doesn’t, the elderly and children at home are so poor that they can hardly survive.

But Governor Xue Wanche not only did not think about releasing food to help the victims, but also only thought about exploiting the people and extorting food to ensure the supply of the army. He even forced the men from towns and villages to log in to the shipyard to further destroy productivity.

Perhaps for the Li family, such an "enclave" far away from the mainland was really useless. Just garrison was a big expense and had to suppress riots everywhere. Therefore, they did not think about occupying them for a long time. As long as they could survive these two or three months, the plan to raid Suizhou by sea had to be implemented. After that, the island was left to fend for itself.

Looking at the hungry and cold villagers, especially the children who were crying with hunger, Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun couldn't sit still. They took out the clothes and food from their respective storage bags, and asked Tong Hai to arrange for the women to bury the pot and make porridge as soon as possible and distribute it to everyone, including those "rebels" men with pale faces and thin skin.

However, the food they brought themselves was limited. Even if they collected all the food in the village, they could last for at most two days.

Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun continued to discuss countermeasures, and Tong Hai walked over with a disgust: "Shaoxia Ba, the old people in the village refused to eat porridge, and they said they wanted to see you."

Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun looked at each other and followed Tong Hai to a dilapidated village house.

The village house is relatively large, and it is Tong Hai's house. At this time, nearly twenty elderly people in their sixties gathered here. Several peasant women and men were urging them to eat porridge, but the leading 70-year-old man couldn't sit upright, and no one else was willing to move his chopsticks.

"Uncle Qi, this is the young master who saved our village." Tong Hai recommended it and whispered to Chu Zheng and the others: "Uncle Qi is the only cultural person in the village who has read books. He was the village chief before. Later, when he was too old, he gave his position to my father. He is the most respected old man in the village."

The 70-year-old man was so thin that he was covered with bones, but his eyes were quite impressive.

He stood up and bowed deeply to Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun, and the other old men also stood up and bowed. Chu Zheng and the other two naturally did not want to receive this great gift? Hurry up to help them up.

Uncle Qi was very stubborn and stood up straight after he finished his courtesy? Chu Zheng was afraid that he would hurt him too much? He had to let him salute, but he did not dare to accept the full gift? He solemnly returned the gift and helped the old man sit down again.

The old man's hands were cold? Chu Zheng hurriedly spread the true energy of the god's seldom to help him keep the cold? He also advised the old man to eat porridge while it was hot.

Feeling the sincere feelings in Chu Zheng's eyes, the seventh uncle was moved. He burst into tears and said in a trembling voice: "Two benefactors, great kindness, great virtue? My village, Minggu, Wu Nei. But I also know that the disaster is coming? I also asked the two benefactors to take the young women and children in the village to leave as soon as possible, just hope they can have a way out. We old bones cannot farm, and have eaten more rice for the years in vain. From today on, we can't waste food anymore, so that the young people can eat all our porridge? We have more effort to rush on. We will take off all the clothes on our bodies soon, and you will take them away together? We wear them on the women and children, don't freeze them..."

Tong Hai's eyes were red? He said sadly: "Uncle Qi, how can you...!"

Uncle Seven waved his hand? He bowed deeply to Chu Zheng and Qin Ruyun again: "Two benefactors? I am so shameless? I have entrusted the future of the village to you..."

More than twenty old men followed and bowed deeply: "Please ask the two benefactors to fulfill their wishes!"

Looking at the elderly people who were trembling with cold and even had a sick face, Chu Zheng somehow thought of his father.

His father was a taciturn farmer, but when the family was at its most difficult time, he also distributed all the few foods and clothes to his family. He would rather eat the bark of trees and eat the snow as if he was hungry...

In an instant, the mist of water spread, blurring Chu Zheng's eyes. He bit his lips and unbuttoned his mask, bowed deeply to the elderly, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, elders, Chu Loujun, the younger generation, is so handsome. But with me in one breath, I will never let anyone in this village die again!"

Everyone was stunned when they saw that he suddenly changed his appearance, but when they heard the three words "Chu Loujun", they all exclaimed.

Tong Hai dared not believe it, "Your Excellency... You are the invincible commander of Liangdu, Shuai Chu?"

Seeing Chu Zheng nodding, Tong Hai was extremely excited and said to Uncle Qi: "Uncle Qi, do you still remember the Chu Shuai I mentioned before? This is Shuai Chu. When Shuai Chu comes, we all have a way out!"

Compared with the "famous" level of the world, Chu Zheng's reputation of nearly 60,000 points has reached the level of "famous all over the world". According to the game's settings, it has indeed spread all over the world. Although Chenxi Island is located in a remote location, as long as there are merchant ships and the arrival of Li family members, Chu Zheng's reputation will inevitably be spread.

Uncle Seven looked at Chu Zheng regularly and said in a trembling voice: "You are really the Shuai Chu who loves the people as much as his son?"

"I dare not." Chu Zheng said seriously: "Uncle Seven calls me Xiao Chu. Although I am shallow in my ability, I will do my best to say anything. Next, I will expel the forces of the Li family and restore the peace of Chenxi Island. Please take care of yourself and witness the good days of Chenxi Island in the future!" After that, I personally took a bowl of hot porridge and fed it to the old man with a spoon.

Uncle Qi's eyes were filled with tears, his lips were squirming, but he could not make a clear sound: "But...but..."

Chu Zheng knew that he still refused to waste this food, and felt even more respectful. Tears flashed in his eyes and said solemnly: "The village is in a disaster, and everyone needs to work together. Uncle Qi is respectful and is the spiritual pillar of the village. Please take care of the elderly!"

Uncle Qi burst into tears, clenched Chu Zheng's hand, and finally opened his mouth.

But after Chu Zheng fed him half a bowl of porridge, he insisted that he was full and refused to eat it anymore. He said, "Shishuai Chu, you have a big deal. Don't pay attention to us old men. We will definitely leave a breath and watch the island live a good life under your leadership. Everyone, you must eat half a bowl, so you can't worry Chu Shuai."

The old people responded with tears in their eyes, each drank half a bowl of porridge, and then refused to eat it again.

Uncle Seven said to Tong Hai again: "Ship Chu is here. If you don't help him wholeheartedly in the future, we old men will not recognize you as our descendants."

Qin Ruyun covered her mouth, her eyes full of tears and shock. She was born in a wealthy family. Although she had experienced a lot of darkness, she did not know that life was a pain of lack of clothing and food.

How can you not be sad and moved when you witness the scene before you?
