Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 340: Troubles arise from the ground
The long sled board left a long trace in the snow, and the surrounding refugees followed it.

Liu Xiao and the other six glanced around with cold eyebrows. The weapons in their hands struck the snow from time to time. The snow splashed everywhere, revealing the bluestone slab underneath that had been frozen for a long time. The bluestone slab was hit hard, leaving a terrifying gully.

The refugee shivered in the cold wind, with most of his desire dissipated in his gleaming eyes.

They can't survive without food, but they don't want to die now.

The refugees slowly retreated, leaving only a few people following them secretly, unwilling to give up.

Liu Qingcao came out of the space. It was getting dark and it was time to have dinner.

She didn't cook tonight, so Liu Si took over. Liu Si had been doing odd jobs in Ruyi Building for a long time, and he discovered another talent under his influence.

Liu Qingcao walked to the stove table. Fish and mutton were already stewed on the table, and tomatoes and scrambled eggs were stir-fried in the pot.

Those who can afford three dishes and one meal at this time are either rich or noble, and they can be considered as forced into the mainstream at this moment.

They were satisfied with their meal, but the refugees' eyes turned red and they swallowed wildly.

Liu Qingcao stared at them for a long time and saw that they still had no further plans. He didn't know whether they were afraid of the six Liu Xiao people or had other motives.

"Liu Xiao, go over and see what these people are planning to do."

Liu Xiao glanced at the dozen or twenty people following behind the sled, and walked away lightly.

As soon as Liu Xiao left, Liu Liu took a step forward and stood close to Liu Qingcao. She raised her cold eyes slightly and glanced ahead with an unkind gaze.

There are many bones hidden under the white snow, the houses conceal crimes, and the smoke curls up to eat away at people's hearts.

Changxinfu City, which is flat on all sides, looks simple on the surface, but secretly it is far less peaceful than Kailingfu City.

People who often lick blood from the tip of a knife have extremely sensitive facial features and bones.

Not only Liu Xiao and the others noticed something was wrong, Liu Qingcao also noticed that this Changxin Fucheng was very abnormal.

……

Liu Xiao stood on his toes and slowly landed not far from the group of people. The cold wind raised his black and blue robes, rustling among the snowflakes, and his flowing black hair flew up and down, showing his coldness and ruthlessness.

The refugees were attracted by Liu Xiao's aura and took two steps back. They watched the man's every move with vigilance and fear.

Among the refugees, a man wearing blue and purple rags walked out from the crowd. The loose clothes swayed in the wind, his lips were chapped and bleeding, and his eyes were sunken and dull.

"Brother, we are all refugees who were kicked out. We are following you because we don't want to be skinned and eaten by those heartless people. We have no ill intentions." After the man finished speaking, he licked away the blood from his lips. , his expression looked strange for a moment.

Liu Xiao glanced at the man coldly, then the hilt of the sword in his hand was pointed directly at his face. The strong wind from the tip swept across his face, leaving two small blood marks.

The man felt the pain on his face and subconsciously wanted to reach out to wipe his face, but he retracted his hand for a moment.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

The man spoke tremblingly, his cloudy pupils shrinking slightly, and the dozen or so people behind him stepped back until there was no one left.

Liu Xiao watched them disperse quietly, the hilt of the sword in his hand never moving at all on the man's face.

"Tell me, why are you following me so closely?"

The man's eyes were evasive and he wanted to argue, but the cold eyes of the person opposite made him feel uncomfortable.

"Follow the passing wealthy households and rob their goods." The man's throat was dry and his voice was hoarse. He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva to relieve the astringency.

"Brother, I am also following orders. I am also forced to do so." After the man finished speaking, he knelt down on the snow and banged his head.

Liu Xiao's face was still cold. Looking at the man on the ground desperately begging for mercy, he felt no pity in his heart.

However, the matter is not over yet, and the man on the ground cannot die yet.

"Whose orders are you following?"

The man's kowtow paused, and his eyes wandered around the snow, as if someone was watching his every move.

"Say!" Liu Xiao placed the hilt of the sword on the man's shoulder. The sword itself was not heavy, but it weighed down half of the man's shoulder.

Chill surged from his shoulders to his whole body, and the man was so frightened that his upper and lower teeth refused to work and kept trembling.

Either way, he will die, so he...

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood spurted onto the snow-white ice. The bright red blood made the man's eyes turn red. Then he fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, losing all his vitality.

Liu Xiao's brow furrowed slightly for a moment, and the blood droplets on the sword hilt froze. As soon as he released his inner strength, the red crystal shattered into foam and disappeared into the wind and snow.

Half an hour later, when the sky was dark, Liu Xiao came back with a boy in his hand.

The boy was thirteen or fourteen years old. He was huddled in a corner of the snow. His eyes were big and frightened. When he felt someone looking at him, he quickly buried his head in his legs.

"Girl, those people are very tough and can't ask anything." Liu Xiao looked at the boy on the ground and said displeasedly, "He won't talk until he has a meal."

Liu Qingcao did not blame Liu Xiao. She had long noticed that something was not normal here and she could not get any information, which meant that there was someone spying on this place, and the people in the dark were cruel.

That’s all, it’s not a waste to exchange a meal for an opportunity.

"Take him to Liu Si and ask Liu Si to cook him a bowl of pasta." Liu Qingcao didn't plan to ask in person. She had to do other things.

Liu Xiao took the boy away, Liu Qingcao got up and walked towards the black night, Liu Liu followed closely behind her, circled around the sled, and she returned to the carriage.

"Liu Liu, tonight you dig more holes near the sleds and build a few snow houses, as long as they are enough for you." After Liu Qingcao finished speaking, he lowered the curtain.

Liu Liu hesitated for a while, and finally turned around to find Liu Xiao and the others.

The figures outside the carriage left, and Liu Qingcao quickly got out of the carriage and walked across the sleds behind them one by one.

By the time they reached the end, Liu Xiao and the others had completed several large pits, each of which was about two meters deep and had spikes standing underneath.

"Girl." Liu Wu spotted Liu Qingcao's figure and ran over happily holding a shovel.

Liu Qingcao helped her brush the snowflakes off her head and smiled softly, "You guys dig it first, and I'll prepare a supper for you."

Liu Wuming turned his eyes and revealed half of his teeth, "Girl, I want to eat grilled fish."

"I'll go and see if there are any fish first." Liu Qingcao didn't object. There were some in the food space. She had to check if there were any left on the sled board first, so she didn't consider using the live fish in the space.

Seeing that Liu Qingcao did not refuse, Liu Wu nodded quickly and ran away with a smile.

We have to feed them well tonight so that they can have the strength to face the enemy.

On the way back, Liu Qingcao rummaged through the food sled for a while, but finally found no fish. Seeing that there was still room on the sled, Liu Qingcao stuffed a few live fish into the lowest part of the sled.

The temperature outside was very low, and after a while, the fish stopped moving.

Liu Qingcao covered herself with a straw mat and went to the stove. The fish in her hand was quickly cut open and washed.

Half an hour later, the three large pots of grilled fish came out of the oven. The rich aroma wafted far away, which made Liu Wu lose his focus on working and drooled just thinking about the grilled fish.

……

Snowflakes are like cotton, flying all over the sky, the cold wind howls, rolling up layers of snowflakes, the quiet snowy night, the bright moonlight shines on the snow, reflecting bright and dark shadows.

One mile away from Liu Qingcao's group of seven people, a group of people were walking quickly through the windy and snowy night.

"Brother, Pan Zi and the others haven't come back yet. Could something have happened?"

Yuan Bachi raised his eyelids and glanced sideways, and said in a cold tone, "There are nearly twenty of them. What could happen to them? Hurry up. The snow seems to be getting lighter. I don't know if it will stop tomorrow."

"Yes, brother." The man did not dare to say any more and waved his arms towards the people behind him. "Hurry up, hurry up. The goods are a mile ahead. After receiving the goods, we can have a good meal."

When the crowd heard the man's shout, no one responded, but they unconsciously quickened their pace.

Yuan Bachi pulled the bamboo hat forward, stepped into the snow with his feet and continued to move forward, his eyes dark and gloomy.

If they can succeed tonight, they will be able to survive this winter. If not, the people here will become food for those people.

He is naturally no exception.

The distance of one mile seems not far, but it is not easy for them.

Their thighs were stuck in the snow, and their stomachs were aching with pain. Every step was extremely difficult. The total distance of just three miles almost cost the lives of the group of them.

……

In the dark night, Liu Xiao was lying on his side in the snow house, with his sword close to his chest, his eyes slightly dozed, as if he was asleep and yet awake.

Suddenly, his eyes opened coldly, he turned over and jumped out of the snow house, disappearing into the snow in an instant.

Liu Er and five others stood on the sled, holding weapons and vigilantly observing the surrounding movements.

Liu Qingcao felt something abnormal outside, and came out of the space. She held the silver needle tightly at her fingertips and listened carefully to the sounds coming from far away.

Rustling sounds came intermittently, getting closer and closer to her carriage. coming! !
The silver needle in Liu Qingcao's hand made a sound, pierced the car curtain and flew into the snowy night.

The silver needle broke the false silence around him, and a muffled groan sounded, followed by shouts and cries of pain.

In less than an incense stick of time, the snowy night returned to peace.

Liu Qingcao got off the carriage and glanced around. Except for the body lying motionless in front of the carriage, nothing happened around him.

It seemed that most of those people were planning to attack Liu Xiao and the others, and her carriage obviously did not catch their eyes.

Liu Qingcao believed in the strength of Liu Xiao and the others, but there were still many steps to understand.

As she thought, there were forty or fifty people lying or kneeling in front of Liu Xiao and the others. These people were skinny and didn't have many good pieces of meat on their bodies. She didn't know where they got the confidence to win this trip.

Liu Xiao found Liu Qingcao and quickly stepped forward to report, "Girl, the people in the snow pit have also been brought up. Twelve are dead, and there are still thirty-seven alive."

Liu Qingcao nodded.

Including the man she killed, this group of people was just fifty. On normal days, it would have taken extraordinary effort to capture these fifty men.

But now...

"Get rid of the weak ones, and torture the rest one by one." Liu Qingcao raised his eyelids, turned around and smiled slyly, "Ask them about their next plans."

After speaking, Liu Qingcao swung his legs and left. Liu Xiao opened and closed his lips and began to do as Liu Qingcao said.

As the leader of this group of people, Yuan Bachi was sneaked out and tortured by Liu Xiaoti at a glance.

"You also heard what my girl said just now." Liu Xiao looked around coldly, without any tone of discussion, "If you don't want to die, just say it."

Yuan Bachi thought he would definitely die. When he heard the girl's words, he was still stunned for a long time. Now that he had a chance to live, how could he let it go?

only……

Yuan Bachi looked at Liu Xiao and the others hesitantly, but in his heart he was deciding how to die better.

When Liu Wu saw Yuan Bachi didn't respond, his little face wrinkled up in displeasure.

"What are you doing here, grown man, delaying the girl's rest? Be careful, I won't spare you."

When Yuan Bachi heard Liu Wu's voice, he suddenly made a decision in his heart, and his face was not as ugly as before.

He wants to take a gamble, win and survive, lose and be happy.

"We are immigrants, and our wives, children, and children were detained." Yuan Bachi's eyes flashed with hatred, and his tone became a little more serious. "The men were arranged by them to rob road merchants, and their wives, children, and children were left to do dirty work for them. "

Liu Xiao glanced at Yuan Bachi coldly, without moving the sword in his hand.

Liu Wu propped up his round chin and rolled his round eyes. Chi Ning looked at Yuan Bachi for a moment, not believing what he said.

"You look like this, can you rob?"

Yuan Bachi nodded, then shook his head, his face getting paler, "Of course it's not a problem for ordinary road merchants."

Liu Wu said "Huh" and understood the meaning of his words.

This group of people was just being used as a knife. As for the result, it would be better if they had it, and they would not lose much if they didn't.

The people detained were just to better hold them hostage.

Those people are really heartless and leave no way for them to survive. No wonder this person just now seemed hesitant.

"Where are your detained people?"

"Two hours' walk forward, in a mountain col." Yuan Bachi was on the verge of falling, his eyelids drooped weakly, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

The moment he fell to the ground, Liu Xiao grabbed the clothes around his waist to prevent him from falling to the cold snow.

Seeing that something was wrong, Liu Liu quickly grabbed a chair and threw it in front of Liu Xiao.

"Liu Si, go make porridge." Liu Xiao put the person on the chair and turned around to explain.

Liu Si nodded and disappeared in a few steps.

"Brother, does the girl keep them for other purposes?" Liu Wu stopped the smile on his face and asked with a frown.

Liu Xiao did not speak immediately. He looked at the people who were taken away by Liu Er and Liu San. He was silent for a moment and said, "I will let the girl arrange this matter. We will pay more attention to their movements in secret. If we find anything wrong, we will take them down immediately. "

"I know, brother." Liu Wu responded, turned around and flew towards the carriage in front.

In her eyes, everything here combined was not as important as the girl's safety.

Liu Xiao looked at the leaving figure, paused for a moment and then disappeared.

……

In the north, snowfields are visible, and the howling north wind blows up broken snow all over the place, hitting everything that blocks its path head-on.

In the white snow fog, rows of tents covered by snow particles were hidden in the silent swaying snowflakes.

In the tent, five people were tightly wrapped and sitting opposite each other. An iron cauldron was burning in the middle of the stove, and the sparks of the stove burst and jumped, eventually hitting the wall of the stove and extinguishing black ash.

"General, we only have less than half a month's supply of food and grass left. Our report has been reported to the court for nearly a month. There has been no news of food and grass for such a long time. Those old men are not trying to starve us to death here. Let's go!" Deputy General Chen Yongwu stood up angrily, his anger uncontrollable and running out.

The expressions of the three people on the side were also not very good. They were angry and sad, and they wished they could lead their troops back to Beijing to fight with those sour men.

"Foreign enemies are eyeing this place. Now our army is in short supply of food and grass. If the Beidi tribesmen know about this, they will be able to rob Beiwu Fucheng without any effort."

"General, this matter can't wait any longer. We have to find a way to raise food."

Yang Jingyong listened to the four people's words with a calm face without saying a word.

Two months ago, he submitted a report to the capital, but unfortunately it ended up being lost and no news was heard from him.

A letter came from a spy in the capital, folding the news from the palace into secret letters and sending them to him.

He was the only one who knew about this matter, and he did not disclose anything to the lieutenants.

This matter was of great importance, and if a small rumor leaked out, the entire military camp was in panic. Before the Beidi Youzu could call, they lost the ability to fight.

Although the behavior of those people in the capital is abominable, the people in Beidi are so innocent. If they are defeated, everything here will become Beidi's.

People in Beidi are cruel and ruthless, and it is absolutely impossible for the people of Beidi to survive.

Yang Jingyong stood up with serious eyes and stood with his hands behind his back. The coldness all over his body made the other four people stop talking and look at him sideways.

"The food shortage is not allowed to be spread to outsiders. Violators will be punished by military law."

A cold and ruthless voice sounded, and the deputy general's intention to speak again was annihilated by the general's decisive momentum.

The four of them looked at each other, not daring to say anything more, and only responded in a warm voice.

After saying this, Yang Jingyong didn't stop for long, withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked out of the tent.

There was not much food left in the food association, so he needed to find a way to raise food as soon as possible.

Now, it is no longer enough to rely on Prince Yu to save them...

Yang Jingyong strode towards the outside of the military camp, his steps gentle and steady. The flying snow fell on his thick hair, condensing into a string of snow-white frost, and his legs and feet were sunk into the ice and snow. It seemed that he could not feel the biting cold in between. Every step was like Walking on flat ground, nothing unusual was seen.

space.

Liu Qingcao took down a white porcelain bottle from the wooden shelf in the warehouse and removed the cork. The snow-white lotion-like medicinal soup in the porcelain bottle blended into the white porcelain bottle. The rich scent of flowers and grass rushed straight into her nose, making her feel nauseous. .

"That's it." Liu Qingcao curled her lips and took the porcelain bottle to the stone table outside.

Qin Xin and Twenty-One have been busy working in the fields recently and rarely stop in front of the house.

They were able to be busy in the field because the animals in the space drank the spiritual spring water for a long time, which made their spirituality grow day by day.

Liu Qingcao's eyes fell on the hands of the two people in the distance, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and there was a smile in his eyes.

She felt a lot more relaxed when she had someone to help her with the work in the field. At least, the land in the space was so large that it would not be left empty without harvesting anything.

Looking back, Liu Qingcao poured out the liquid from the porcelain bottle. The milky white liquid slipped into the porcelain bowl and blended with the color of the porcelain bowl. The rich fragrance spread around, and the faint white mist could be seen flying around.

Fantasy, what a beautiful and ethereal name.

Unfortunately, this is the only bottle.

There was no other reason. She had been looking for the key medicinal ingredient for making this medicine for a long time but could not find it. No one even knew that such a medicinal ingredient existed.

Sure enough, there is nothing you can do if you are raising a baby alone...

The main reason is that the baby is too young, not even one year old, and needs to be watched and carried around at all times.
