Chapter 598 Bamboo Shoots with Meat
Chapter 598 Bamboo Shoots with Meat
Gu Nianyu did as he was told and landed steadily.
In order to express my excitement of returning to the embrace of Mother Earth, I couldn't help but sigh.
"The donkey is always teasing."
She underestimated the aftermath of falling from a high altitude and originally wanted to say: I'm finally down.
When he opened his mouth, he realized that his face was so stiff that it looked like a piece of trash. It was difficult for him to speak.
Kong Kong asked weakly, "Master, are you okay?"
Gu Nianyu answered consciously, "What could possibly happen to me? It's just that my mouth is out of control and was blown by the wind."
"If you want to go out, hurry up."
A voice that seemed to come from ancient times sounded, and Gu Nianyu, who was at his wit's end, sat down on the ground again and entered a state of concentration.
What she didn't know was that the golden mist did not penetrate into her body as slowly as before, but was as fast as thunder, and the speed of its reduction was visible to the naked eye.
When the day breaks, people go out with dull eyes and no energy.
For days, I survived on clear noodle soup or porridge with few grains of rice. It was difficult to walk.
Their hands were hanging down and swaying, their backs were hunched, and they couldn't even straighten their necks.
Some people fainted, which was like food being delivered to the doorstep for the living. They turned into wolves in human skins and rushed forward to snatch the food.
They carried knives with them and were obviously prepared. They killed all the breathing people in no time.
Those who failed to grab the meat continued to move closer to the porridge distribution point, looking around.
If someone faints, they will become the next target of food grabbing.
At the porridge distribution point, Shangguan Jiuyou stood on the city wall and looked at the line of people waiting to get porridge. The number of people was much smaller than yesterday.
The image of people eating each other appeared in my mind.
His brows were furrowed beneath the mask, and he called Eleven over, "Send a few teams of guards to patrol the streets."
"Master, the guards have been starving for days, some are sick, some are dead, and we are unable to spare any manpower."
Shangguan Jiuyou punched the city wall, making a loud bang.
After a few breaths, "Contact the Wolf King. I want to see him."
"Master, do you want to borrow food from Wolf Soul Hall? There is famine everywhere today, and perhaps Wolf Soul Hall is in the same boat as us."
"I cannot watch this world turn into hell. I cannot miss any hope. Do you understand?"
"I obey my orders."
Half an incense stick later, Shangguan Jiuyou appeared in the imperial study.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne with a gloomy look on his face, while the crown prince and the eighth prince, who had returned from Cunzhou at some point, stood below him.
"Old Nine, I have received another joint petition from officials and common people today."
The emperor didn't say anything else, but Shangguan Jiuyou had already guessed the content of the joint letter.
He said with full of anger, "Father, I know very well whether Yu'er is alive or dead, and I will not allow others to interfere."
"Old Nine, I must send the imperial physician to diagnose and give everyone an explanation."
"Father, I'm sorry, I can't obey your command." After saying that, he turned and left.
"Rebellious son, it's not up to you."
The Eighth Prince bowed and said, "Father, I will go and persuade my Ninth Brother."
"Go."
Shangguan Jiuyou was fast on foot, and when the Eighth Prince caught up with him, he had already left the palace.
"Ninth brother, the imperial physician should take a look. It's nothing."
Shangguan Jiuyou said nothing, and used his lightness skills to fly into the air.
"Ninth brother, wait for me." The Eighth Prince shouted and chased.
Nine Palaces.
Butler He found Mumu and said, "Young Master, where can we find food today?"
It’s strange that the palace had been ransacked long ago, but the young master always found food.
Sometimes there are groups of mice, sometimes there are various flying birds, and yesterday we found several nests of bird eggs.
In short, if it weren't for the young master, the palace wouldn't be so empty until now. It would definitely be like other palaces, where the bodies would have been moved out long ago.
In his eyes, the young master is the lucky star of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, no, the savior.
Mumu walked into the secluded courtyard with his hands behind his back, like a little old man.
It was unsafe to walk among the ruins, so Butler He persuaded him to leave.
"My young master, this place was struck by lightning and has not been rebuilt yet. Let's go somewhere else. There is nothing here."
Mumu didn't stop, walked through a group of ruins, and started shouting as soon as he entered the bamboo forest.
"How can there be nothing? Can't bamboo shoots be eaten?"
Butler He took a few steps forward and saw bamboo shoots everywhere. He was so excited that he was speechless.
"This...this...can...eat."
Thinking he was dreaming, he pinched his right hand with his left hand to verify it.
He felt so much pain that he didn't even care about etiquette. Without even saying hello, he ran to call people to dig bamboo shoots.
Thirteen in the dark was confused. He came to the bamboo forest at night to look for Baibai, but there was clearly nothing there.
It is incredible that so many bamboo shoots grew in just four hours.
Butler He called ten people and started digging bamboo shoots carefully, not wanting to waste even a single bit.
Mumu held his chin and sat cross-legged on a large rock, "Meat goes better with bamboo shoots."
Steward He felt a little sad. He walked up to him and said as if to assure him, "Young master, after the famine is over, I will stew meat for you every day."
"Eat whatever meat you want."
Mumu pouted, "Uncle housekeeper has also learned to make empty promises?"
Butler He didn't understand and answered seriously, "This old servant can only make pancakes, but not paint them. If you want to talk about painting skills, it has to be the master."
"Pfft..." Mumu laughed out loud, "Yeah, that's right, I raise my hands and feet to show my agreement."
"Daddy is best at painting cakes for mom. He has painted several mountains of gold and silver."
Butler He was confused by what he heard, but his intuition told him not to ask too much, so he touched his nose with an embarrassed expression and did not respond.
Mumu stretched and stood up. "I'm not good at drawing, but I'm pretty good at finding food to fill my stomach. I'm going to catch a wild boar."
"As you command." After saying that, Butler He finally reacted, his eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "Wild, wild boar? Young master, don't be ridiculous."
As soon as he finished speaking, a wild boar suddenly appeared in the bamboo forest, weighing at least 400 kilograms.
All the people present were petrified on the spot, watching the wild boar rampage without moving.
"Catch them quickly, don't you guys want to eat meat?"
Mumu's cute voice woke everyone up, and they picked up their weapons to surround the wild boar.
Ah Hai descended from the sky and killed the wild boar with one sword.
Butler He rubbed his eyes and asked uncertainly, "Is it really a wild boar?"
Mumu showed a little proud expression, "Yeah."
He jumped down from the rock and ordered, "Pick out some good meat and send some to Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang."
After saying that, he jumped away.
Butler He still couldn't believe it and thought it was a dream.
"Pinch me quickly, hard."
The person next to him raised his hand and exerted all his strength. Butler He was in so much pain that he was sure it was not a dream.
So where do wild boars come from?
"Did you see where it came from?"
Everyone shook their heads collectively.
"Strange, why are there wild boars here? Didn't they eat them all a long time ago?"
After muttering, Butler He ordered his men to carry the wild boar to the kitchen for processing, while he went to find Liu Sang.
"The guards in the mansion need to be strengthened."
"Don't worry, it's as solid as a rock."
