"Come on, this is not the place to talk."

Ji Liangchuan took over Lin Jiuyue's cart.

"Let me do it."

Lin Jiuyue was not polite and handed the cart to Ji Liangchuan.

The three of them walked for a while, and after getting away from the crowd, Lin Qiye finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Sister, buy so many things?"

Ji Liangchuan, who was following him, was also a little curious.

He knew how much money he had taken out, and it was impossible to buy so many things.

It is impossible for Lin Jiuyue and his brother to have so much money.

Lin Jiuyue said 'hmm'.

"Well, I met a kind man in the city and gave me some silver. I used it all."

Lin Qiye:......

Ji Liangchuan:......

How can you lie to a three-year-old child?

Although Ji Liangchuan didn't believe it, he didn't ask any more questions.

As for Lin Qiye, she had already guessed that Lin Jiuyue must have sold something.

There was no one around, so Lin Jiuyue gave the remaining two daggers to Lin Qiye and Ji Liangchuan.

"Take this thing, you may need it on the road."

Ji Liangchuan was not polite and put the dagger into his arms.

Lin Qiye turned the dagger back and forth to look at it, and she liked it very much.

"In order to avoid causing trouble, when I go back later, I will tell you that these things were bought with Brother Ji's money."

Ji Liangchuan didn't say anything, which was regarded as acquiescence.

The fleeing team only rested for a while and then set off again. Lin Jiuyue spent some time going to the city, and now he could only see the tail of the team.

After chasing for a while, I finally caught up with the village chief and others.

"Girl in September, have you heard any useful information?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled awkwardly.

"Village Chief, the news is the same as what we heard before. However, I heard that the harvest in Jingyang County is not very good, and some wealthy households are already planning to go to Beijing."

The village chief frowned. I analyzed the matter over and over in my mind.

If a wealthy family has money, it will definitely not be difficult for them to go to Beijing.

But now there are so many refugees fleeing famine, and there’s no telling what might happen on the road.

If this were placed on myself, I would definitely not choose to leave at this time. Those rich people have the brains to make so much money. The stakes here must be more thorough than what I can analyze.

After weighing the pros and cons, I chose to go to Beijing. I'm afraid it's not just a simple matter of a bad harvest.

The village chief walked ahead with a heavy heart.

I had already guessed that going to Beijing this time would not be easy, but I didn't expect that things would become complicated after only a few days of walking.

Lin Jiuyue also thought of this, but said nothing.

We still don’t know what caused the wealthy households in Jingyang County to collectively sell their properties and go to Beijing. It’s hard to tell, lest it cause panic among the refugees. It would be bad if something happens again.

"Sister, are the rich people in the city really planning to go to Beijing?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded imperceptibly.

"If the harvest is just bad, it will be easy for those rich families to survive these two years..."

Lin Jiuyue's words were not very clear, but both of them understood what Lin Jiuyue meant.

"Sister, if that's the case, why don't we take the mountain road? There are many people on the official road. When the rich households catch up, those victims who have no food will definitely have evil intentions. I'm afraid this road will not be peaceful."

Lin Jiuyue frowned. Turning to look at Ji Liangchuan.

Ji Liangchuan was seen pushing the trolley with his head down, a look of indifference on his face.

"Brother Ji, what do you think?"

Ji Liangchuan frowned and pursed his lips when he saw Lin Jiuyue asking him.

It took a while before he spoke.

"Although there are few people on the mountain road, there are wild animals and maybe bandits on the mountain. It is equally dangerous."

Lin Jiuyue didn't know this was the case.

"However, you will always find something to eat when you walk on the mountain road. You won't starve to death."

Lin Jiuyue is not worried about food. Although his space is not large now, the three of him will not be able to finish all the food he grows in his lifetime.

Let’s talk about bandits and wild beasts. After drinking the spiritual spring water, he could kill a wild boar with one powerful fist. As long as he was not surrounded, there was basically no problem.

The same goes for his younger brother.

Ji Liangchuan himself was an Orion before and was not a laggard. Among the three people in this group, none of them was a "fuel-efficient lamp".

Although the three of them were walking in the team, their positions were always close to the forest. It is convenient to sit down and rest when you are tired from walking.

Lin Jiuyue stopped and stood on the roadside.

"Brother Ji, how about we try the mountain road? If it doesn't work, we can go back. Anyway, the three of us are traveling lightly. We are not afraid of not being able to catch up with them."

Lin Qiye didn't have any objections. Just follow your sister.

Ji Liangchuan thought for a moment and then agreed.

The three of them reached an agreement and walked quietly into the woods. The refugees around him were already used to it.

Fleeing victims would enter the woods from time to time, either for convenience or to find food or water. Many people like Lin Jiuyue and others entered the woods halfway.

The village chief has been observing the situation of Lin Jiuyue and the others, and saw that Lin Jiuyue and the others abandoned the official road and took the mountain road instead. His brows wrinkled unconsciously.

Could this girl in September have noticed something?

Thinking of this, the village chief could no longer move forward.

The sharp-eyed villagers asked in a low voice when they saw that the village chief did not move.

"Village chief, what's wrong?"

The village chief sighed imperceptibly.

"Sneakly gather the people in the village and tell them that I have something to discuss with everyone."

Seeing the village chief's appearance, the villager who spoke did not dare to waste any more time. In the blink of an eye, he was interspersed in the fleeing team, telling everyone in a low voice.

The villagers who got the news slowly approached the village chief. When everyone in the village was almost here, the village chief found an excuse to rest in the woods on the roadside.

The people in the escape team couldn't help but secretly despised them when they saw that the people in Lijia Village were still thinking about resting at this time.

"Is everyone here?"

"Village Chief, everyone from Lijia Village is here. If you have anything to say, just say it."

The village chief looked up at the mountain.

"Ugh……"

"Village Chief, did something happen? You told me that it made everyone panic."

The village chief knew that it was useless to sigh now, so he stated his guess again.

"I was thinking of taking a mountain road. What do you think?"

When the villagers heard what the village chief said, they immediately exploded.

"Village chief, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and there are wild animals on the mountain, and there may be bandits. We are all honest farmers. If we encounter them, we will die."

The village chief frowned.

How could you not know these things? But that girl went to the city in September and changed her route. She must have discovered something was wrong. It would definitely be right to follow them on the mountain road.
