On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

The door of the felt tent was already half open, and Li Shiyue swung it with great force. The flaming fire starter fell directly to the ground and ignited the carpet inside the felt tent.

Moved!

The person in the felt tent moved!
Although Li Shiyue couldn't see inside the felt tent, he was so close that even though there was a lot of noisy noise nearby, it was easy for him to identify the location by listening to the sounds.

He stepped forward in an instant, bent his legs and stretched out his arms, drew his knife, stabbed straight, and turned his wrist to cause greater damage to the target!

Someone inside the felt tent shouted, and more people fell into chaos because Li Shiyue had the ability to stab with a knife through the felt tent.

The next moment, Li Shiyue drew out his knife fiercely, and the hot blood of human beings spread into the cold air, and the smell was disgusting.

Liu Tan was very surprised. He had seen Li Shiyue jump up and behead someone, but at this moment he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I actually underestimated her!

Even if it's me, I may not be able to pierce this felt bag in one go!"

However, this thought only flashed through Liu Tan's mind, and he seized the opportunity when Li Shiyue came out.

"kill!"

Ma San swung his knife forward and chopped open the door of the felt tent.

Zhao Da and two other bodyguards stayed outside waiting for Liu Tan outside the felt tent, while the other bodyguards followed Ma San and rushed into the felt tent.

Li Shiyue stood aside and swung his knife to shake off the blood on the hatchet.

Although she was not afraid of the smell of blood, she had extraordinary senses and really didn't want to hurt her nose.

Seeing that there was no room for him to display his talents, Li Shiyue shouted to Liu Tan, "Master, I'll go over there and take a look."

Without waiting for Liu Tan to respond, Li Shiyue raised her leg and headed southeast with a knife. She heard the loudest whining noise coming from that direction.

Liu Tan wanted to say something, but he really had nothing to say. After all, Li Shiyue was not a soldier under his command and did not have to obey his orders or accept deployment.

The entire barbarian camp was filled with all kinds of sounds, crying women and children, male barbarians struggling to resist sneak attacks, and herds of cattle, horses and sheep frightened by the sudden war. It was really a mess with one person coming on stage after another, as chaotic as a big drama.

The whistling wind brought a familiar voice. Li Shiyue adjusted his pace and ran towards the direction where Erdan's mother was shouting.

Erdan's mother followed Zheng Meiniang into the outermost felt tent of the felt tent group. Zheng Meiniang kicked open the door of the felt tent and went in first. Then a burst of "bleating" sheep sounds were heard.

There are actually more than a dozen lambs locked in this felt tent!
Zheng Meiniang was a little confused at first. She really didn't expect that the barbarian's felt tent was not only for living, but also served as a sheepfold.

However, there are people in the felt tent with sheep!
Mother Li watched as a blurry black shadow rushed towards her from among the bleating sheep. Erdan's mother also heard the sheep's bleating outside the felt tent. She was a little curious, so she bravely looked inside the felt tent.

When she looked up, Erdan's mother saw a young boy holding a dagger, who was not even as tall as Zheng Meiniang's waist, stabbing towards Zheng Meiniang who was one step away from the felt tent door!
After Erdan's mother was stunned for a moment, she let out a sharp and loud "Ah".

The noise even scared the sheep in the felt tent, causing them to bleat.

If the Zheng Meiniang of the past had seen this young boy rushing towards her, she would have been able to subdue him even at the risk of getting injured.

After all, she had never practiced any physical skills, but she had learned some methods of dealing with pigs from Zheng the Butcher since she was a child. How could she deal with someone who was more agile than a pig?
Besides, Zheng Meiniang is quite old after all. Even if her eyes can keep up, her hands and feet may not be able to react.

but!

Yes, but last time, in order to save Li Wangming, Li Shiyue poured all the vitality water he obtained from the mission into the pot, so that everyone in the family could drink two bowls.

The system does produce some rubbish tasks, but the rewards produced by the system are of very good quality.

This life-giving water not only saved Li Wangming's life from a high fever, but also allowed Zheng Meiniang, who was half blind after eating wild fruit poisoning, to regain her sight, and she could see farther and more clearly than before.

At the same time, the vitality water also subtly changed the health of Li Shiyue's family in the days that followed. Zheng Meiniang's back and leg pain, which she suffered from due to consecutive childbirths and not taking good care of herself after the baby was born, was actually cured!
So, at this moment, facing the little wolf cub who suddenly jumped out, Zheng Meiniang reached out and accurately grasped the little wolf cub's wrist, restrained his hand, and then exerted force again, and under the severe pain, the dagger in the little wolf cub's hand fell directly to the ground.

As a result, Zheng Meiniang still ignored the little wolf's desire for revenge, and when she was caught off guard, the little wolf bit Zheng Meiniang on the tiger's mouth.

Zheng Meiniang was careless. She endured the pain and was about to hit the wolf cub in the face with the back of the knife when Erdan's mother came in with a hatchet. She heard Zheng Meiniang's cry of pain just now, and without thinking, she rushed in with the knife and stabbed the wolf cub directly in the back.

"Don't!"

Zheng Meiniang didn't want Erdan's mother to hurt the little wolf cub, at least not to take his life directly!
But how could Erdan's mother stop at this time?

With a "bang", the stone thrown by Li Qiutian knocked the knife that Erdan's mother was stabbing away.

This gave Zheng Meiniang time to throw the little wolf cub towards the flock of sheep huddled together.

This was the scene that Li Shiyue saw when he came over with a knife.

"Let's forget about the sheep for now, and tie up these people with hemp ropes first."

Li Shiyue drove all the dozen sheep out of the felt tent. Li Qiutian lit a fire and then saw the group of people who had been pushed aside by the sheep. They must have all been hiding behind the sheep's butts, leaning against each other.

They were a group of children. Except for the little wolf cub, the rest of the children, judging from their height, should be between five or six years old and around ten years old.

Zheng Meiniang felt a little bit reluctant, and Erdan's mother was even more at a loss.

If it was a strong man, it would be fine. Even if it was a barbarian woman, it would at least be possible for people to do it.
But now, seeing these children who are either trembling or expressionless and numb and ignorant, how can anyone bear to do anything?

Li Shiyue used Li Qiutian's fire starter to take a look at the bloody tooth mark on Zheng Meiniang's mouth. She became interested in this child who was not even as tall as her chest.

However, Li Shiyue doesn't think that he can be treated preferentially just because he is a child. Just now, the little wolf cub wanted to stab Zheng Meiniang with a dagger.

The thin hemp ropes that Zheng Meiniang and the others brought were put to use. Li Qiutian cut the hemp ropes into pieces. Erdan's mother searched them, and Li Shiyue tied the hands of each of the kids.

They were not allowed to leave the felt tent. Not only that, Li Shiyue and Li Qiutian drove the flock of sheep back in.

It cannot be said that these little cubs were naked, but they were all wearing only thin clothes. Only the little wolf cub had a sheepskin coat to keep warm.

The dozen or so sheep living in the felt tents should be used to keep the children warm. They should be able to keep warm when they sleep with the sheep in their arms at night. (End of this chapter)
