Chapter 43 Impressions of Xiangyang(2/2)
Some people were just huddled on the ground completely naked, and even many women were completely naked, exposing their withered breasts, not to mention the children.
Many people have no flesh at all on their bodies, with only a handful of bones left, like skeletons, and many even lick their huge bellies abnormally. Even if those women are naked, no normal person will be able to produce the slightest bit of excitement.
Interest, only disgust and disgust.
Basically, all of them have empty and numb eyes. They just beg for a bite of food in a low voice when they see people. The only reason why they don't rebel and rob passers-by is that they are really weak and have no strength at all.
Li Ping only continued walking for a while before he was overwhelmed by the sight in front of him. He had never seen such a huge poverty-stricken area before, nor had he seen so many severely malnourished and hungry people.
, this is different from the feeling of seeing corpses and countless rioters on the ground. This place will make you completely lose hope in humanity and life.
I don’t know why hungry people gathered here in large numbers. Anyway, Li Ping never saw hungry people gathering near the West Gate and South Gate where he often walked. Perhaps those two places were under the control of the government and the army due to their strategic location.
Or maybe it's closer to the seat of the highest government office in Xiangyang, making it easier to get relief.
When he saw a broken hand-pushed cart pulling several corpses slowly forward, the silly big man Liu San explained that it was people hired by the government to collect the corpses. For fear of an epidemic, Li Ping finally could no longer walk any further.
.
After turning back, they went outside the west gate, where there is the famous Iron Buddha Temple. Li Ping only glanced at the place. The incense here was unusually prosperous, which was incompatible with the chaotic world, but it seemed to better illustrate people's understanding of the world.
disappointment.
Li Ping did not enter the temple in the end. He finally went to the teaching military field outside the east gate to have a look. This was the original residence of Jin Shengheng and one of the old camp sites in Xiangyang.
However, since the main force of Jin Shengheng's troops has moved north, the place is currently empty, and Li Ping can't see anything from a distance.
By this time, it was already past noon, and they had to find a place to eat.
