In the past few days, the Yellow Turban Army, which captured Zhending County, had a good rest.

They distributed the uneaten horse meat to the people around them, and opened the county storehouse to distribute the grain to the poor.

What the Yellow Turban Army did won the hearts of the people in the vicinity.

Some homeless homeless people, seeing that the Yellow Turban Army was so benevolent, asked to become a member of the Yellow Turban Army.

The first benefit of defeating Huangfu Song has begun to be revealed.

These homeless people, who had previously preferred to starve, did not join the Yellow Turban Army. But after Chen Xu defeated the officers and soldiers and shook Jizhou, these people surged into a different kind of thinking.

People can't help but wonder if the Yellow Turban Army can really succeed, will they have a future if they join the Yellow Turban Army now?

The people are ignorant and blind, under Tian Feng's deliberate propaganda, the current Chen Xu has become the son of Huang Tian, with the help of the gods.

A village in the east of Jiumen County, where the people piled up firewood.

A young man with a delicate face, who was thin and looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, buried himself in a pyre of firewood, shivering with cold.

He is a homeless man, and because he has no place to live, he makes the villagers' firewood his home.

The villagers in the village, although they were not able to help the boy, did not object to him sleeping in the firewood.

Sometimes, the kind-hearted villagers would bring a bowl of hot water to the boy.

In the cold winter, the boy can only feel a trace of warmth and survive this terrible winter only by holding the firewood in his arms tightly.

The teenager's parents died young, and there was no name or surname. It's just that he looks too delicate and likes to laugh very much.

When he laughs, like spring grass, he always makes people feel young and energetic, so people who know him call him spring grass.

"Gollum!"

Chuncao, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly woken up by hunger. He opened his eyes, a little confused at first.

"Gollum!"

But the sound in his stomach reminded the boy. At this time, he couldn't help covering his stomach, and a painful look appeared on his face.

Hungry, so hungry!

"Will I survive this winter?" Chuncao secretly thought in her heart, and her eyes were already full of tears.

He has been living alone since he was twelve years old, wandering around. It can be said that every winter is extremely torturous for him.

They had to face not only hunger, but also cold.

Chuncao raised her head, and her dirty face reflected an emaciated silhouette. He looked at the firewood pile not far away, which was empty, and couldn't help but show a panicked look on his face.

"Where's Brother Kitten?"

Chuncao suddenly got up from the firewood, and the cold wind blew, and he couldn't help but shudder.

"Kitten, kitten, where are you?"

Chuncao's voice is very good, with a bit of a sissy flavor. But at this time, his voice was full of fear.

Three years ago in the winter, Haruka met a kitten who was unconscious on the side of the road.

At that time, Chuncao was only thirteen years old, and he couldn't bear to watch the kitten freeze to death there. With his immature hands, he dragged the kitten to a firewood.

Chuncao borrowed a little fire from someone nearby, and he lit a big fire and stayed by the kitten's side all night. He kept adding firewood and made sure that the fire burned overnight.

The next day, Chuncao ran to the mountains again, worked hard to find some wild vegetables, and then picked up a tattered clay pot.

He put the wild vegetables in a clay pot, cooked them in water, and after he was hungry, he began to feed them to the kittens.

Later, the kitten woke up.

Kittens are not originally called kittens, but for homeless people, the name is just a title, and there is no need to delve into it.

Because the kitten is agile and climbs over walls and trees like a cat, others call him kitten.

There is no doubt that the kitten is also an outcast. That winter, he was so tired of living without food that he gave up hope of survival and was starved on the side of the road.

Actually, there are many homeless people like kittens. If they want to survive, they have to find wild vegetables and tree bark in the mountains every day, and struggle to survive.

But in winter, the grass and trees withered, and even the wild vegetables disappeared. At this time, the homeless people had to search for it every day to barely survive starvation.

So, there are always people who can't stand such a life.

They lay on the side of the road, dreamed of endless big fish and meat, immersed themselves in it, and never opened their eyes again.

And the kitten is one of them.

He was tired of this life, and he didn't want to struggle anymore. So, he gave up.

In his sleep, he saw himself lying in his mother's arms, sprinkling on his wife, eating the food his mother had fed him one bite at a time.

However, dreams are called dreams because they are illusory and unrealistic.

When he opened his eyes, the kitten cried when he saw Haruka's emaciated and yellow face, and saw that he was feeding himself spoonful after spoonful.

From that moment on, the kitten swore that he would protect the stranger in front of him for the rest of his life.

When the kitten plucked up the courage to survive again, his agile physical fitness showed his advantages.

It's been three years, and the kitten is now twenty years old, but he has lived to the present with the weak spring grass.

During this period, he was also confused and wanted to give up. But every time he saw the vitality on Chuncao's face, which was like spring weeds, he would pluck up his courage again.

Stay alive! Yes, just to live.

In order to survive, he went up the mountain to hunt hares, went to other people's homes to steal chickens, and touched dogs.

Every time he was discovered, he would be beaten all over his body and dying.

But, each time, the kitten miraculously survived. And the belief that supports him to live is Haruka's smile with tears.

Chuncao saved the kitten because of her kindness. But it was because of this act of his that he was able to live until now.

Otherwise, maybe he would have starved to death that winter three years ago, right?

For three years, the kitten has never left Chuncao's side. Every morning when she opens her eyes, Haruka can see the kitten's face.

Chuncao is afraid of the dark and has to listen to the kitten every night to fall asleep. And the kitten wakes up early every morning, and then stays by Chuncao's side, quietly waiting for Chuncao to wake up.

But this time, the kitten is gone.

"Kitten, kitten, where are you?"

Chuncao panicked in her heart. In the past three years, he has long regarded the kitten as his brother and has developed a deep affection for him.

But now, the sudden disappearance of the kitten makes Haruka feel that the whole sky is dark.

Haruka quickly got up and tried to retrieve the kitten. But as soon as he stood up, he saw a nimble figure running towards him.

The kitten wiped the beads of sweat from her face, looked at Chuncao, who had woken up, and couldn't help asking, "Chuncao, why did you get up so early today?" ”

When Chuncao heard this, she looked up at the sky and found that she had indeed gotten up a little early today.

Thinking of how sleepy she used to be every day, Chuncao's face couldn't help but blush.

"Gollum!"

At this moment, both of their stomachs rang.

Chuncao said, "Kitten, let's go find something to eat." ”

O homeless, in order to fill their stomachs, in order not to starve to death, they can only keep looking for food every day.

The kitten shook his head, with an excited look on his face, and said, "Chuncao, let's not go looking for food, go to Zhending!" ”

"Go to Zhending?" Haruka's big eyes were full of doubt.

Is it different for them to go where to find food? Why do you need to expend your physical strength to run to the real thing?

As if seeing Chuncao's doubts, the kitten said, "As long as we go to Zhending, we will never go hungry again!" ”

"Why?" Chuncao is a little natural, he looks stunned, and he is a little cute.

The kitten said loudly: "Join the army, we want to join the Yellow Turban Army!" ”

"General Chen, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, is the son of Huang Tian, who can occasionally call the wind and rain and scatter beans into soldiers, and is blessed by the gods. Even the general, who had very good officers and soldiers, was killed by him. ”

"Since the imperial court doesn't give us a way to live, we might as well follow General Chen to rebel and fight for a future."

Speaking of which, the kitten's face was full of fanaticism.

What man doesn't have ambitions? As long as they are given the slightest chance, that kind of ambition that is deeply hidden will quickly sprout and become out of control.

"Joining the army, isn't that going to the battlefield? But I don't kill anyone! ”

Thinking of the battlefield full of corpses, Chuncao's face turned pale, shrunk her head, and said a little timidly.

The kitten patted his not-so-strong chest and said arrogantly, "It's okay, I'll protect you!" ”

Under the persuasion and temptation of the kitten, Chuncao finally couldn't resist the gruel with white flowers and the fat and greasy meat.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he rushed to Zhending with the kitten, ready to join the Yellow Turban Army.

This kind of thing happens in many counties near Zhending.

Since Tian Feng sent people to preach that Chen Xu could summon the thunder god and the wind, it has become even more bizarre when it reaches the ears of the people.

Some people say that Chen Xu is ten feet long, has a big waist and a round waist, and can swallow 100,000 officers and soldiers in one bite.

Some people also say that Chen Xu can call the wind and rain and scatter beans into soldiers. He summoned a fire with his left hand and a strong wind with his right hand, and burned the officers and soldiers clean with a single fire.

Chen Xu's huge prestige made those homeless people who were struggling between life and death all see hope. They set their sights on Zhending and flocked to this small county town one after another.

……

Chu Yan relied on Chen Xu's majesty and led his men to capture Zhengding. At this time, he was in the county office, stroking the exquisite porcelain vase.

Suddenly, a man ran in in a panic and shouted, "Chief, it's not good! Oh no! More than 2,000 horses in the city abandoned Zhengding and went to join the Yellow Turban Army in Zhending! ”

"Bang dang!"

The porcelain vase fell to the ground and fell into countless pieces.
