Nongmen Jiao Nv: Escape from the famine with space

Chapter 231 The Refugees Are Coming (12)

But Zhang Mu really didn't care too much about this, she hurriedly said: "Don't worry about it, I either can't bear it, or I get motion sickness, after that, we can eat whatever you eat. How can you be so particular at a time like this, it’s really not that expensive.”

"That's fine, anyway, I will try my best to make something good for Sister Zhang."

If the conditions are really not good, then Zhang Mu can only be wronged.

After that, the group walked for another five days. During these five days, they still encountered several waves of refugees on the road, but the number of refugees in each wave was still not too many. They left after being frightened by the strong men in the village.

But as he was walking, Jing Chen realized something was wrong, he hurriedly asked Wen Xin, "Xin Er, I have something to ask you."

Wenxin was tired from walking and was sitting on the donkey cart. As soon as Jing Chen called her, she immediately ran towards him, but she was still on the donkey cart.

Jing Chen asked: "Xin'er, I remember you said before that Miss Zhang's family met a large number of refugees and separated from Zhang's family, right?"

"That's right, that's what Sister Zhang said. There were too many refugees at that time. In order to grab food, everyone swarmed up and injured many people in their mansion."

After talking warmly, I also felt that something was wrong. There were too many refugees, yes, as for the refugees, they didn't see a large number of refugees along the way, but a lot of small groups. There were more than ten people in the group, ten How could multiple people defeat hundreds of people in their village.

But if the groups of refugees with more than ten people they met together, then the number of refugees is really quite a lot, "Uncle Jing, you mean that the group of refugees who robbed Zhang's family before were scattered, now Staring at us all the way to test us, right?"

Their village just fled from the famine. Although the food was not good before fleeing from the famine, the people in their village still had some meat compared to the refugees. In addition, they had a lot of burdens on them, so they became the targets of the refugees. It's not something that can't be said.

If this is the case, then they have to take precautions earlier, "Uncle Jing, tell the village chief about this."

"Xin'er, Yu'er, both of you go and talk."

The two of them glanced at Jing Chen and knew that this man didn't want to show off, so they squeezed towards the village chief.

Wen Yu found the village head and told the head of the analysis just now, the village head immediately became vigilant, "Yu'er, what do you mean, we may be surrounded by those refugees, maybe when... .”

"Village chief, this is just my guess. Maybe I'm wrong, but in case, we are in danger. Although there are so many people in our village, most of them are women and children. They have the upper hand, and the refugees are all outlaws, so it's better to be careful."

The village head pondered for a while, and after searching around, he pointed to a hill not far away and said, "It's getting late now, that hill is higher, let's go there to rest, and stop by." Discuss what to do about this matter, there are still 15 days away from Pingyao County, if we are targeted, refugees will definitely come to commit crimes within these 15 days."

The villagers didn't know why, but the village chief said to go there to rest, and they went there to rest together, but after everyone rested, the village chief told Wen Yu's conjecture just now, and naturally some people believed in these conjectures , Some people don't believe it.

"If this is the case, then we should take precautions as soon as possible."

"Increase patrol manpower and divide the night into two shifts."

"There are only so many middle-aged men in our village, and now they are all on vigil, who else can be added." Half-children can't do it, and women and old people can't do it either.

"No, you don't need to be so nervous, Wen Yu is just guessing, what if you guess wrong."

"But what if the guess is correct, what will happen to the lives of all of us?"

No matter how these people quarreled, the matter of increasing the vigil must have been settled. After the final discussion, the addition was some middle-aged and elderly people who were a little bit older, more than 40 years old.

Don't look at people in their 40s and feel that they are still young and should not be called middle-aged and old people. But at this time, people's life expectancy is only in their 50s, and those who live long are only 6 or 70 years old and they are quite rare. There are hundreds of thousands of people in a village. There are only 5 or 6, which shows how short the life span of people is at this time.

Therefore, people in their 40s are really old in this era, and it is really frightening for them to start the night watch.

There was no movement that night, and even after walking for more than ten days, there was still no movement. However, just when everyone finally arrived in Pingyao County with two days of footsteps, one accidentally let down his vigilance and was thrown by a large number of refugees. Blocked.

The refugees rushed towards them densely, wave after wave, and the surrounding roads were immediately crowded.

Perhaps they endured it for too long. These refugees all had scarlet eyes, and seemed to lose their minds from hunger. They rushed towards them, but obviously their first target was not them humans, but the people they brought with them. Donkeys and cows around.

Live animals were bitten to death by this group of refugees, the scene was truly appalling.

There are too many refugees, these donkeys and cows are not enough for their teeth, and they have become the targets of these people in turn.

With blood on their mouths, these refugees threatened the villagers with knives, "Hurry up and hand over the food, or you will be the next one to eat."

When had the villagers who had just left the village seen such a scene, they didn't care about begging for mercy or giving them food, and just peed on the spot in fright.

Seeing that the villagers ignored them at all, the refugees stepped forward angrily, snatched a child in the front of the crowd and wiped his neck directly.

The child didn't even have time to cry, and even though it was dead, the mother of the child didn't react immediately, and when she reacted, she rushed towards the child. Live.

These refugees were too fierce, and the first battle directly frightened the villagers who had never seen the 'world', and everyone shrank back in fright, but they could hand over the food, no.

The man who just killed the mother and son threatened viciously: "I give you two choices, either you pay the food or you don't pay the money, otherwise, this is where you will be buried."

Although the villagers were frightened, they were not stupid. They were afraid that this would be their burial place whether the food and money were handed over or not.

But in a large group of people, there are always one or two people who are not clear-headed. Suddenly, a trembling voice resounded in the crowd, and the man said: "I will give you the money and food, can you give me a way to survive?"
