Sudden.

A few sparrows flew by and chirped about something above Song Wanning's head.

[There is a large group of bandits in front of you, run away now, or you will be shot to death by their sharp arrows and become their meal. ]

[The bandits are numerous and powerful, and they have weapons in their hands. They are also lying in ambush in the terrain ahead. Those who go over now will be in big trouble.]

bandit?

Song Wanning frowned after hearing this.

During those famine-stricken times, it was common to not have enough food to eat or enough warm clothes to wear.

Many people would choose to sell their children in exchange for food.

Some people were so hungry that they started stealing and robbing.

And these bandits are even more cruel.

They burn and loot, and don't care about your life at all.

As long as I can fill my stomach, it's fine.

What's more, they have weapons in their hands.

If you go head-on, nothing good will come of it.

There are also many elderly, weak, sick and disabled people in the village, as well as many little girls.

If they were really kidnapped by bandits, they would have no future in life.

Thinking of this, Song Wanning frowned and looked solemn.

Song Jiang had already returned to his parents' home, leaving only Yun Che here.

“Did something happen?” Yun Che asked.

She was fine just now, but he also noticed that Song Wanning looked unwell.

“There are bandits ahead. We can’t move forward. But I can’t just say this directly. I’m afraid they won’t believe it. I have to think of a way…” Having said this, Song Wanning set her eyes on Yun Che.

He was already a wounded man when he was rescued.

The recovery is pretty good now.

If he continues to be injured, he will have a reason to rest here, and Song Wanning can also go to the front to find out the situation.

“How about I break one of your legs?” Song Wanning looked at Yun Che seriously.

Yun Che: ...

"Don't worry, I can definitely help you heal, but it will be a little painful, just bear with it."

Song Wanning didn't even wait for Yun Che to answer before she started throwing wooden sticks around.

Yun Che glanced at his own legs. If he didn’t stop her, they would really break right here.

Song Wanning had already set her eyes on a piece of wood, walked over, held it in her hand and raised it, and it was just the right size.

“Wait, I have another way.” Yun Che hurriedly stopped her.

They couldn't make too much noise either, so Yun Che pretended to take two steps forward. There happened to be a tree next to him, so he climbed up.

He fell down after only two steps.

The others also heard the noise here.

“What happened?” Village Chief Shen came over in a hurry and saw Yun Che hugging his legs.

"I'm afraid I'll waste your time. I broke my leg and can't continue on my journey. How about we stay here for a night?"

Yun Che rarely spoke much and even winked at Song Wanning.

But before Song Wanning could step forward, the few people who had been dissatisfied just now rejected Yun Che's request.

"It's just a broken leg. Don't we have a doctor here? Let him take a look at it for you. Then you can use a crutch and continue on your journey, right?"

"Yes, we have only been walking for a short time. If we continue at this speed, it will take us an unknown amount of time to reach the next place."

They were unwilling to waste time on Yun Che.

Song Wanning ignored what they said and checked Yun Che's injuries first.

I didn't expect his acting skills to be so good.

It's not a big deal if you fall down, it just makes it look like a broken leg to others.

"A leg injury is no small matter. If it's not treated properly, it may cause a chronic disease and lifelong disability. Village chief, it will only take one night. I still have to make medicine for Zhang Hai." Song Wanning said at the end, and even pulled Zhang Hai out to use as a shield.

In order to get better as soon as possible, Zhang Hai would definitely follow Song Wanning's words.

"Come on, guys. It's just one night. We can't afford to waste any time. Besides, it's very safe around here. If you don't want to stay, then go away. I'm going to set up camp here anyway." Zhang Hai threw the package in his hand to the ground. He really didn't plan to leave.

The remaining people looked at each other.

But thinking about the kindness of Song Wanning sharing their rabbit meat, he agreed to stay one more night.

Those people were helpless.

After all, if they just keep moving forward, they might not encounter any problems.

It's safer to stay in the village.

So, everyone put their things away and stayed here for one night.

Song Wanning found Village Chief Shen again and told him about the bandits.

"How did Brother Song know?" Village Chief Shen asked casually out of curiosity.

"We can see that there are not many people along this road. Although it is not the only way to escape the famine, we are not the only ones here. Moreover, the terrain ahead is steep, and no one should walk there. We haven't even passed through yet, so where did those footprints come from?" Song Wanning told Village Chief Shen what she had observed.

Village chief Shen originally didn't believe that there were bandits here.

But Song Wanning was so confident in what she said, and she was just in case.

"Then I'll tell everyone about this, and we'll change direction tomorrow." Village Chief Shen also knew how powerful the bandits were and didn't want the villagers to take risks.

Just as he was about to go and notify them, Song Wanning stopped him.

"Village chief, there's no need to go through so much trouble. If we take a detour, it will only take us longer. I have a way to deal with them."

"The bandits will not show up openly. They will definitely wait until late at night when it is advantageous for them to take action. We can catch them tonight."

Village Chief Shen was a little surprised when he heard this. After all, they were bandits. Could Song Wanning really do anything about it?

But think about it carefully.

When the wolves first appeared, they didn't seem to attack them.

He even sent so much food to Song Wanning.

Maybe Song Wanning will appear again.

"Okay." Village Chief Shen nodded and called everyone over.

Song Wanning also told the story about the bandits.

But those who were causing trouble didn't believe it.

"You don't have to scare yourself. With so many of us, can't we deal with the bandits?"

"That's right. I think you are just spreading rumors and making people panic."

"Village chief, you believe what outsiders say. Maybe they are just talking nonsense. Where have we encountered bandits along the way?"

"..."

They were very proud after saying these words.

"That's a great point. You can choose not to believe it, but other people's lives are still important. If you like to commit suicide, then I don't care." Song Wanning shrugged. She never liked to talk nonsense with others.

But the rest of the people were indeed a little scared because after the famine, bandits were rampant.

Just because they haven't encountered it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If we really confront the bandits here, there will be no way we can deal with them.

The bandits killed people without blinking an eye.

"We will all follow your arrangements." Everyone looked at each other and said tacitly.

The faces of those people just now turned red with anger.

"Do you really believe what this stranger says?"

Some people were so angry that they almost pointed at Song Wanning's nose and cursed her.

But no one answered him, and they all dispersed.

He glared at Song Wanning fiercely and said angrily, “I will definitely drive you away. I don’t need you in my village.”

"Anytime."
