Ma Yuan was born in a humble family and was completely lowly, without any moisture.

At that time, he didn't know where he was from. Later, he traced back to the root cause and determined that he was from Yanzhou and probably from Chenliu County.

His family has no land, and his parents are tenants in powerful manors. They make a living by farming for wealthy families and making a living.

Although it is tight, it still has some food to eat. It can be alive. Although it is inevitable that you will be beaten and scolded, at least you can eat.

A bowl of dried grain had no taste, just a piece of black pickled vegetables had a salty smell, and the whole family ate it.

Dad should eat more because Dad is the main force in farming and has no energy to eat salt. Mother and Ma Yuan eat less, because they are not the main force.

At that time, Ma Yuan was not old and didn't know how to endure when he was hungry, so he asked his parents for something to eat.

Every time at that time, parents would shed tears and coax Ma Yuan to say that there was nothing they could do, just bear it, just bear it.

How long is it to endure?

It seems like it is not very tall.

However, Ma Yuan's parents didn't complain much. They felt that they could eat less and would not starve to death.

If you work harder and work harder, you may be able to make more food and keep more food. During festivals, you may be able to have a few more meals.

As a result, my hometown was hit by a military disaster, everything was over, and there was no chance to endure it.

Several troops were rampant in their hometowns, killing people when they saw them, robbing them, and burning them.

At least I still had some stuttering, but after the war, I lost my life.

The wealthy family was robbed, and there were fire and dead people everywhere. My parents died, died in front of him, and were killed by a knife, and they were dying with their eyes open, but at least the body was intact.

But before he could collect the body of his parents, he was taken away by a large group of fleeing people.

He survived by chance and walked forward with a group of fleeing people all day long with hunger steps.

Walk towards the place where the sun rises, and don’t know where you go, or when you will starve to death on the side of the road, just walk.

It is not easy to find something to eat, but it is even more difficult to eat it in your stomach. When he finds some food or catches fish and small animals, it is difficult for him to keep his food from being robbed.

People often rob the food they found to eat.

Some people have a little conscience and will not rob the food Ma Yuan has obtained. Occasionally, people with kindness will give them a little bit of the food they find.

With the help of these kind-hearted people, Ma Yuan survived several crises of starvation.

After suffering a few losses, Ma Yuan learned to hide food, or finish it quickly after finding the food. This way, even if someone wants to grab it, it will be useless to catch him and fight.

When someone robbed food, Ma Yuan curled up and lay on the ground, holding the food and chewing and swallowing desperately. He chewed and swallowed in big mouthfuls, rushing to reincarnate, and swallowing things into his stomach.

That's fine.

Sometimes I choked, and there were several times when I almost choked to death.

But he felt that even if he was choked to death, he would be better than starving to death. If he was choked to death, he would not be considered a starving ghost.

Because he still remembers his parents telling him that no matter what, he cannot be a starving ghost.

He still dreams about how miserable he was at that time.

If you don’t have clothes to wear, you can only wrap it in rags and treat it as clothes.

Without shoes, I barefoot and finally walked out of a thick layer of calluses.

It seems that I always walk dizzy, very weak, have no strength, my stomach is always hungry, I have never eaten enough, and it is lucky to be able to stutter.

Just walk, walk, walk.

It seems that the muddy road in front of me will never end.

People often fall forward as they walk and never get up again.

No sound was made, nor did it cause any turbulence.

Because there are too many such people, it happens every day. From the sorrow at the beginning to the numbness later, everyone gets used to it.

If you have a relative, you will cry a few times, then dig a hole to bury the dead, and then leave.

If there were no relatives and no one had the extra strength, they would ignore them and continue to move forward, allowing the person to completely rot on the desolate road, or be taken away and eaten by wild beasts of unknown species.

Ma Yuan once once speculated in a bad way that his skinny look was probably going to curse people after eating it. Bah, it was all bones and no meat at all, but he was still a human?

Maybe they are not human.

Not worthy of being a human being.

No one will help them, the ants.

Death may be their only destination.

Ma Yuan didn't know when he would die, and was then taken away by an unknown beast.

But looking at his skinny and bony appearance, he suddenly felt sad.

Because maybe his body was not even interested in the hungry beast, and he would curse a few words when he got into his stomach - he was too thin and could not eat meat, and it was all bones. What's the point?

He felt very uncomfortable.

Even the beasts dislike themselves, and even the beasts are unwilling to admit that they are individuals.

Maybe you are not alone.

When will it die?

At that time, Ma Yuan, whose belly was empty, often thought this way.

Will you not be so hungry after death?

He once tried to commit suicide, but gave up because he was too scared.

It seemed like he was thinking about suicide in his head, but when he wanted to act, he was stopped by his body. There was always something to stop him from committing suicide and prevent him from dying.

Some of his body wanted to die, and some wanted to live.

Until one day, they wandered to somewhere unknown and were intercepted by a group of well-equipped soldiers.

When Ma Yuan saw the person holding the weapon, he instinctively felt that he would be killed.

They are obviously so pitiful, will they still be killed?

Is there any value for being killed?

Is it worth killing that we, a group of ants who have nothing to curse even when wild animals eat them?

Why kill us?

Ma Yuan wanted to escape, but he had no strength, so he collapsed on the ground while crying, waiting to be killed.

His only humble hope is not to make him feel too painful when he is killed. He hopes that those who attack can start faster and let him die if he is comfortable.

I thought I was going to die, but after waiting for a long time, Ma Yuan didn't wait until the steel knife with a cold light slashed on his head.

No one cried, no one howled, no one ran away.

Together they were taken outside a city by the soldiers.

A big city.

Someone brought them buckets of thick vegetable porridge for them to eat.

Someone arranged for them to use water to clean their body that could no longer see clearly.

Someone brought them worn clothes and shoes.

Ma Yuan was very surprised at that time.

Because of fear, I couldn't even move until I couldn't resist the aroma of the thick vegetable porridge and the shouts of the officials.

"It's not that you are poisonous, but that you are trying to save you, and that you are just going to use a knife! Why do you do for you? Look, it's all porridge made from good food. General Guo gave you food. Yes, don't be afraid... I'll eat it for you! Look! It's so delicious! Come and eat it!"

The little official shouted hard like a vendor selling vegetables on the street in the market, which was completely incompatible with the official uniform he wore.

Ma Yuan can no longer remember the appearance of his parents, but Ma Yuan remembers the taste of the porridge very clearly.

Because that time he was full of eating thick vegetable porridge.

Moreover, the porridge was salty and salty. He had never eaten such a thick vegetable porridge with such a strong taste. Even when he was at home, he had never eaten such a delicious thick vegetable porridge.

One bowl after another, without chopsticks, I used my hands to push the sticky porridge into my mouth, until my eyes were straightened, and I kept licking the remaining juice on the wall of the bowl.

Everyone kept licking with big bowls, feeling like everyone was like mice.

Ma Yuan didn't remember how many bowls he ate. He seemed to have eaten a lot, but he didn't seem to have eaten a lot. He just felt that his stomach was about to explode, but he couldn't stop on his mouth and was still licking.

Fortunately, my stomach didn't really explode.

The little official kept shouting, asking them not to eat so much, be careful to be overwhelmed, not just this meal, not a slaughtered meal, what are you afraid of?

But who can listen?

After eating porridge and putting on clothes that had not been worn for a long time, Ma Yuan was surprised to hear the little official wearing official uniform announce to them that they had been registered as Qingzhou household registration and would obtain land and houses, and from then on they could cultivate the fields and live a stable life.

Many people couldn't believe it, but some officials really started registering them.

Ma Yuan is young and alone, and is an orphan. When it is his turn, everyone in the official uniform is surprised.
