Chapter 395 395, Benefactor’s note
"Yes, village chief."
"Remember, we won't talk nonsense."
"Now that there is a snowstorm, there is a shortage of food everywhere. If people know that we have food, they will definitely come to grab it."
"Yeah, I was stupid to say it."
"Now even the government doesn't care about our life or death, but our benefactor can send us relief food. This is a huge kindness~"
"Hey~ our benefactor didn't leave a name, and we don't know who to thank?"
"Didn't the last signature contain the character 'Xia'? Then our benefactor's surname must be Xia."
"By the way, village chief, is the Baiyun Village written on the note far from us?"
"I've never heard of it. I only know that Nanzhou City is very poor."
The village chief looked at the note with a thoughtful look on his face. After hearing the villagers' questions, he came back to his senses and said, "I know Pingsha Town is not very far from us. If you travel quickly, it will only take two or three days."
.”
"Dad, why did Mr. Xia say that if we can't survive anymore, we should go to Baiyun Village?" The village chief's eldest son scratched his head in confusion.
The village chief glared at his son, "What do you know? This is a clear path shown to us by our benefactor. He is giving us guidance."
"Village chief, what do you mean?" Everyone had questions on their heads.
The village chief looked thoughtful, "The benefactor gave us food to enable us to survive the snowstorm. If I understand correctly, the benefactor meant that if the situation in Shaanxi Province cannot be improved after the spring, we can
Flee to Baiyun Village for refuge."
"Ah? This"
"Is it possible that the benefactor knows something?"
"Will something happen to our Shaanzhou City?"
"Isn't it? Now that the snow has stopped, doesn't that mean the situation has gotten better? Could it be something more serious?"
"Hey~ You don't even think about how serious the snowstorm is this time. Our Xinghua Village is in relatively good condition because it is close to the edge. I'm afraid it will be difficult for other places to recover after the spring."
"Yes, I heard that many houses collapsed in other towns and many people died. When such a thick layer of snow melts, I don't know if the land will be affected."
"Hey, I would say the biggest problem is that the government doesn't take care of things. Think about it, what will happen if there is no food in the disaster-stricken areas?"
"Hiss! That would be too scary~"
"It seems that the benefactor has thought of it a long time ago, so he reminded us."
Seeing everyone talking about it, the village chief said with a sullen face, "Okay, are there some things we can say? Be careful of any trouble coming out of your mouth."
"Village Chief, I just say a few words casually in our village."
"Yes, yes, don't worry, village chief, we will keep our mouths shut when we leave the village."
"Village Chief, can you tell me what we said is right? My benefactor thinks so too, right? So should we make preparations in advance?"
The village chief looked serious, "That should be it. If you guessed correctly, the benefactor who sent us food should be in Baiyun Village. If he can say this, he must be very aware of the situation in Baiyun Village and know that it is safe.
It allows us to live a peaceful life.
I specially left a surname in this signature, maybe it is a contact code for us. If we really go to Baiyun Village, we can't let others accept us without any basis, right? I think this surname must be very important."
Since you are willing to help others, then the other party will definitely not rashly say something that even he himself does not know? Then this is not helping others.
And they are just a group of poor peasants. The total money in the village is probably not more than ten taels. What can they do to make people spend so much effort to plot?
Secondly, if you have done such a good thing, according to common sense, you will either leave no last name or name, or you will directly indicate your identity, so why bother just leaving a single last name?
You must know that there are so many people with the surname "Xia" in the world. If you want everyone to appreciate this kindness, it makes no sense to just keep a surname.
That's why he guessed that his benefactor's intention was probably to leave a secret code for them. As long as they went to Baiyun Village and looked for someone named 'Xia', they might be able to be properly accommodated.
Secondly, this surname definitely plays an important role in Baiyun Village. Otherwise, how could the person who left the note have the confidence that as soon as they reported their surname, the people in Baiyun Village would know?
In short, he had no doubt about the content on the letter and firmly believed that the person who donated the food was sincerely helping poor people like them.
"Ah? The benefactor is in Baiyun Village?"
"Well, it's possible."
"I think the village chief is right."
"If the benefactor lives in Baiyun Village, it means that place must be very good."
"Village chief, what do you think? Should we escape now?"
"Yes, the place recommended by the benefactor will definitely be good. With the benefactor here, we can feel more at ease."
"We didn't flee before because we didn't have any extra food and were afraid of dying on the way. But now that we have these food, we don't have to worry about running out of food on the way."
"I heard that several surrounding villages have fled. I'm afraid this area may not be stable."
"Isn't that right? Even my benefactor said so, and the life after that will definitely be difficult."
"Hey, what a plagued dog official! What a black-hearted man."
Gradually, the villagers changed their minds. If they could escape, who would want to stay and wait to die?
But their family was too poor. Not only did they not have cold-proof clothing, but they also had no food to support their escape. They continued to stay. At least they still had this house in the wind and snow.
Rather than die on the road and suffer torture, it would be better to die peacefully at home, which would be considered a good destination.
But it's different now. With such food, they can escape to Baiyun Village before the disaster. Now that they have a place to flee, it's better than blindly running around on the escape road, right?!
"Dad" Seeing that his old father was silent, the village chief's son hurriedly shouted. In fact, he had the same idea as everyone else and didn't want to stay anymore. During this period, he always felt like he was waiting for death. This kind of
The feeling is really disturbing.
Now that we have the conditions to escape, why bother to stay here and wait for disaster to happen?
The village chief sighed, "Needless to say, since everyone has the same idea, let's go back and prepare. We will set off for Baiyun Village in three days."
"Okay."
"Very good."
"Three days are enough to clean up."
So, with hopes and goals in mind, everyone in Xinghua Village happily distributed the supplies and went home.
In the next two days, scenes like Xinghua Village continued to occur in some towns in Shaanzhou City.
It's just that some villages decisively decided to defect to Baiyun Village, while some people continued to choose to stay at home. They still wanted to wait and see. After all, the benefactor was just a guess, and there was no 100% indication that there would be other disasters.
occur.
They still don't want to move their families away from their hometown easily if it's not necessary.
