The Han Dynasty was founded four hundred years ago, the territory is vast, and it is divided into four administrative levels of states, counties, counties, and villages in turn, although there are Xianbei, Xiongnu, Wuhuan and other foreign races often invade, but still can not shake its hegemony, until a major event occurred more than ten years ago, the Han Dynasty began to gradually decline.

The territory of the Han Dynasty was divided into thirteen states, each of which had jurisdiction over several counties, and Zhuo County was a county seat under the rule of Zhuo County in Youzhou.

On this day, a conspicuous foreigner came to Zhuo County, leading a light brown steed and speaking fluent Bingzhou dialect, as if he was asking people for something. The reason why it is conspicuous is because this person is extremely tall, a head taller than ordinary men.

This person is Lu Bu who came all the way from Bingzhou, Bingzhou is adjacent to Youzhou, and Mayi is not far from Zhuo County, and Lu Bu only took two days to arrive in Zhuo County.

I thought that the matter could be solved quickly, but Lu Bu still overestimated his thoughts, since entering Zhuo County, Lu Bu asked no less than ten people, but no one knew Liu Bei, let alone where Liu Bei's family lived.

This made Lu Bu wonder in his heart, could it be that he remembered the wrong place, Liu Bei was not in Zhuo County at all?

Just as Lu Bu was thinking about it, a small hand suddenly pinched the corner of Lu Bu's cotton jacket.

Although it is already the spring season, it is still very cold in the whole north.

Lu Bu turned around, it was a little girl in a torn jacket, seven or eight years old, and the shabby jacket was full of sewn and sewn patches.

A breeze blew, the little girl's lips were already purple from the cold, and her body shrank subconsciously, the pair of thin-soled cloth shoes on her feet were stained with mud, and there was a small hole in the front, and two cute pink little toes appeared from time to time.

Lu Bu thinks that he is not a good person, but when he saw the little girl like this, he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, and Lu Bu tried his best to show a warm smile: "Little girl, why are you pulling the corner of my clothes?" ”

"I ...... I ......"

The little girl timidly retracted her little hand covered with chilblains, and in the face of Lu Bu's question, she seemed at a loss, until she saw Lu Bu's warm smile, she mustered her courage, and her careful words carried a strong pleading: "Big brother, can you give me something to eat, just a little bit." ”

In the end, as if she was afraid of being misunderstood by the big brother in front of her, the little girl added: "I don't want to come to eat by myself, my mother is tired, and I haven't eaten for almost two days ...... lying in bed."

"Pak~"

Drops of crystal water burst out of his eyes and dripped down his cheeks and fell to the ground.

The little girl hurriedly wiped it with her hands, but the tears were wiped more and more, and the little girl was crying urgently, so she had to sobble and apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"

It was not until she finally stopped her tears that the little girl dared to raise her head, but the big brother in front of her just now had disappeared.

The little girl felt aggrieved from the bottom of her heart, hanging her little head, like a deflated ball, just hanging in place, motionless.

The street was full of people coming and going, and she seemed to be just a small weed, no one cared about, no one cared, and even standing there seemed to be a very eye-catching.

"Ahh

The strange voice sounded not far away, and the little girl Fan Ling followed the sound, only to see that the eldest brother just now had four more breads in his hand, steaming hot.

Lu Bu exclaimed with an exaggerated "ah-hoo", and his two hands kept throwing the dough from side to side, plus Lu Bu's tall stature, which made the whole person's movements look very funny.

The teary-eyed little girl was instantly amused and burst into laughter, and Lu Bu came over and divided the four dough cakes into three portions, one for himself, one for the little girl, and the other two for the little girl's mother.

The little girl Fan Ling felt extremely flattered by this, and hurriedly waved her little hand, saying that she didn't want so much, just one.

Lu Bu couldn't help but stuff it all to the little girl, and carried Fan Ling to the back of the horse and sat firmly, leading the horse and saying that he wanted to send Fan Ling home.

The horse also snorted and shook its fur a few times, obviously carrying this little girl more comfortably than Lu Bu.

On the street, Lu Bu held the horse rope in his left hand, and the bread he held in his right hand would also nibble on two bites from time to time.

"Big brother, you are a good person, my mother said that a good person will live a hundred years."

The little girl on horseback whispered, and the gratitude in her words was overflowing. If she hadn't met Lu Bu today, she really didn't know what to do.

Lu Bu turned his head and smiled at the little girl, he wanted to tell Fan Ling that in this world, those who can live for a long time are generally bad people, and good people often don't live long.

It's just that when the words came to his mouth, Lu Bu swallowed it back, he was a murderous and hard-hearted person, but for some reason, when facing this innocent and well-behaved little girl, he couldn't be ruthless.

Seeing the little girl hide the three breads in her arms like a treasure, Lu Bu couldn't help but ask, "Don't you eat it?" ”

"I ...... I want to leave it all to my mother. The little girl still replied in a whisper, but at this time her stomach was very inappropriately "grunting".

Fan Ling suddenly felt that this stomach was too unlucky, and he had embarrassed himself at the critical moment, and his little face was flushed, and he couldn't wait to dig a crack in the ground and get into it.

Lu Bu was amused by the little girl's shy expression, and said with a smile: "If you can't eat enough, then who has the strength to take care of your mother?" ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he turned around and continued to lead the horse forward.

The little girl was stunned, Lu Bu's words made sense, if she didn't even have the strength to do it, what should her mother do on the sickbed?

After hesitating, the little girl finally carefully took out a dough and put it to her mouth and bit it gently.

Perhaps because she hadn't eaten for too long, the little girl took two more bites after the first bite, and a round cake was instantly lost by a third.

Fan Ling secretly glanced at Lu Bu, and saw that Lu Bu only cared about leading the horse forward, so she put her mind at ease, for some reason, she was afraid that Lu Bu would suddenly turn around and see her embarrassed appearance.

"Ah, it's a meat pie!"

Fan Ling on horseback exclaimed, but the not strong smell of meat made her extremely excited.

This kind of dough with meat filling is more expensive, about three to five times the price of ordinary dough, so these only four dough cakes have already spent all the coils that Lu Bu carried, after all, Lu Bu is still just a small centurion.

Lu Bu can understand the little girl's mood at the moment, it is no longer the prosperous era of "those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away", displaced poor people can be seen everywhere on the street, most of the poor families can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, and even some children have not eaten a piece of meat since the moment they were born.

Passing through the downtown area, Lu Bu quietly stopped and stopped.

The two-zhang wide bluestone street is full of people watching the excitement, including the families of rich families, ordinary people, peddlers and pawns from the north and south, and the displaced people who have been torn by the war.

Lu Bu could only hear a sharp voice from the noisy crowd, "I paid for meat, why don't you sell it!" ”

At the very front of the crowd was a half-man-tall butcher's board, behind which stood a burly man, tied to a black fur waist, whose right arm was particularly thick after years of slaughter.

The man smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that a certain family doesn't sell it, it really can't be sold!" ”

"Can't sell? What do you mean by that? If you don't say anything ugly today, see if I don't make your mess! The man with a sharp voice snorted coldly, arrogant, and didn't seem to be good at it.

"Yes, yes, right, he opened his stall!!"

The people who watched the play also started to cheer.

The burly man had no choice but to point to a well not far away and say, "Have you ever seen this well?" ”

Everyone looked in the direction the man pointed, and there was indeed a well that was two feet above the ground, and the body of the well was covered with moss, but I don't know which person with a lack of heart and eyes actually sealed the mouth of the well with a thick boulder.

But what does this well have to do with buying meat?

No one knew why.

The man had to patiently explain again: "The meat is suspended in this well, my young master said, but anyone who can remove this stone to take meat will not only receive nothing, but also give a thousand dollars." ”

A thousand bucks!

There was a commotion behind the crowd, perhaps for the rich and noble, a thousand dollars is just a drop in the penny, but for the poor, a thousand dollars is enough to solve four or five months of food and clothing.

As soon as the man's words fell, a man with a martial form was squeezed out of the crowd, and he asked on the spot: "What you just said, is it true?" ”

"Seriously!" The man habitually rubbed his hand on his waist twice, and replied in a dull tone.

After receiving a clear answer, the man was obviously very satisfied, laughed loudly, and said three good words in a row: "Okay, good, then so-and-so will give it a try!" ”
