The evil smile on Li Yi's face became even worse.

"Don't worry, strong man, I will definitely know everything and tell you everything."

Feng Laosan immediately raised his hands and swore to God, but what he was thinking in his heart was: Wait for me, kid. When I go back and call my brothers, I will teach you a lesson.

Li Yi actually knew Feng Laosan's true inner thoughts, but he didn't care at all.

"Let me ask you, how many years have you been living in Sizhou County?"

"The younger one has been hanging out in this city for more than ten years."

Seeing Li Yi nodding to express his satisfaction, Feng Laosan's anxious heart finally calmed down a little.

"So did you ever hear about the mob that came into the city five years ago?"

When Li Yi mentioned this issue, his expression became solemn.

"The mob invaded the city five years ago!"

Feng Laosan began to recall, and instantly he remembered the tragic massacre of the entire city by a mob five years ago.

"Oh! I remembered that five years ago, a group of unknown mobs suddenly launched an attack in the city and massacred many families in the city."

Li Yi's eyes instantly became sharp.

"Tell me more specifically." Li Yi said immediately and eagerly.

"This incident caused a sensation in the whole city at that time. At that time, all the beggars and gangsters in the city were investigated by the government, so I remember it very clearly."

As he said this, Feng Laosan sat cross-legged on the ground and began to tell the story of what happened.

In fact, he was not at the scene of the crime at the time, but because the incident affected beggars and gangsters like them, they asked each other about the incident after the incident.

Five years ago, due to drought, the entire southeastern part of the Dayu Dynasty experienced a grain harvest failure, and a large number of people began to flock to surrounding cities to seek a way out in order to survive.

It is said that the mob came from the counties and villages surrounding Sizhou County.

Originally, according to the decree of the Dayu Dynasty, every time there was a famine, local governments must open warehouses and release grain to help people suffering from famine if necessary.

As the largest city in the surrounding area, Sizhou County has multiple large granaries.

In addition to the tax grain collected by the government, these granaries also contain a large amount of relief grain used for disaster relief.

So at that time, the surrounding people who had no food harvest flocked to Sizhou County and asked the government to open warehouses for disaster relief.

At that time, the government did open warehouses to provide disaster relief as soon as possible, and the people did not cause any trouble.

However, the stable situation changed after only a few days.

It turned out that just a few days after the disaster relief, the fleeing people discovered that the food supplies for the disaster relief began to decrease sharply, and the food had changed from refined grains to moldy coarse grains.

At that time, the people reported this matter to the government, but the people did not receive any reply from the government.

The common people had no choice but to accept it. After all, in times of famine, having a mouthful of food to eat and not starving to death was already a great gift from the government.

But what happened next suddenly became confusing.

At that time, some more radical victims suddenly appeared among this group of victims. They were very angry at the inaction of the government.

So they began to encourage the victims to continue asking for explanations from the government.

The government still did not give any reply to the trouble caused by the victims. They only dispatched official officials to drive away the victims.

The defeated victims became even more excited, and some even claimed that the government would slowly starve them to death.

So they began to plan riots to rob disaster relief granaries and various tax warehouses.

But before they could take action, the government heard the news and immediately dispatched a large number of government officials to protect the tax warehouse and disaster relief warehouse.

Facing the government officials, the victims knew that they could not successfully rob, so they turned their robberies to wealthy households in the city.

And that night, a horrifying mob massacred wealthy households in the city.

Overnight, many wealthy households throughout Sizhou County were robbed and massacred. Suddenly, flames shot up to the sky and cries of mourning filled the city.

Since most of the government officials were guarding the tax warehouses and disaster relief warehouses at that time, the officials did not dare to step forward to stop the mob's atrocities.

After the mob ravaged the entire city, they fled in style, and the government never intervened.

Because the atrocities committed by this group of victims were so brutal, other surrounding counties and towns did not dare to allow him to enter the city.

After that, they wandered in the wilderness for more than half a month, until the imperial court sent troops to annihilate them.

After massacring some of the fiercely resisting mob, most of the remaining people finally chose to surrender.

All the surrendered mob were sentenced to exile for violating imperial laws.

The place where they were exiled was the northern border of Saipei. They were all sentenced to hard labor and served life-long sentences without pardon.

After listening to Feng Laosan's story, Li Yi fell into a long silence.
