The famine-escape cub vs. the fake daughter cub
Chapter 76: Desolate Village
"Let's go and show my sister around your village."
The village was even more desolate than Yunli had imagined. The air was filled with a stench of corruption, and Yunli could even see large pools of blood and vague limbs in front of some dilapidated doors.
Yunli immediately put ropes on his two big babies to prevent them from running over and licking or smelling them.
After passing several households, Yunli discovered a pattern.
If there were still people alive in the family, they would bury the bodies and clean up the bloodstains. For others, all the family members had died, or only a few ignorant children were left.
In this era, life is really difficult.
"Go and call everyone in the village. I'll give each of you five candies." Yunli patted the child's head and instructed.
The child was a little scared, but also a little eager for the candy in Yunli's hand.
I thought about it, there are so many people in the village, it’s impossible that they can’t beat a girl and two dogs, right?
He nodded and ran out.
Soon, he came running over with a group of children, followed by three panting old ladies and an old man. The four people looked exactly the same, with blood-soaked cloth wrapped around their heads.
It was said that there was a group of children. Yunli counted them and found that including the bad boy, there were only eight in total.
"Didn't they say that the children were not taken away? Why are there only ten children in the village?" After everyone arrived, Yunli looked at the adults and asked.
Several elderly people had tears in their eyes, "Why weren't they caught? The children who hid well were not caught, but the children who didn't hide well were all caught!"
Yunli was a little confused.
There is something contradictory about this.
If they really wanted to capture people to eat, then why did they let these old people go and leave those corpses alone?
But if people are not captured for food, why do they capture ignorant children?
The old man was experienced and could immediately tell what Yunli was confused about.
The old man sighed and said, "They thought we were too old and had too much flesh to chew. They also thought we would stink too quickly if we died, so they left us old guys with intact bodies. But they didn't expect that we old guys were lucky enough to just faint..."
When he heard that they would give out candy, Mr. Huang also said that if they were lucky enough to meet a rich family, they could sell these children to this kind-hearted person, so that at least they could save their lives.
Staying in this village with these five old guys will only make you moldy and smelly.
Those old guys who passed away early were fine, as they had some help burying their bodies. But when they passed away, who would help bury them?
"Miss, please be kind. If you have the ability, take these girls and boys with you! You can either sign a contract to sell them, or sell them when there is a disaster. At least they can survive!"
An old woman with red and swollen eyes knelt down with a thud, pulling Yunli's legs and begging.
"I am just a survivor of this disaster, just like you. How can I have the ability to save others?"
Yunli sighed.
You think too highly of her, really.
"We still have some food and water. Gou Zi and the others are already eight years old and have the strength to push a cart. They can push the food and water and follow you, girl! Girl, you don't need to be responsible for them. You just need to take them with you. Girl, please, you see, there are so many corpses in this village. We can't bury them all with just a few old bones. I'm afraid there will be an epidemic in a few days. We old guys can die, but at least we have to leave a root!"
The old lady’s pleading was not enough, and several other elderly people also knelt down.
Yunli is not someone who can be morally kidnapped.
But, at a time like this, can she really stay out of it?
Just as she was in a dilemma, she saw the old man and two children from the cemetery from afar.
Yunli didn't care about anything and gave the order directly: "Go, tie up that old man and those two kids."
The four old men turned around in confusion and were surprised to find that it was Boss Huang.
The inner struggle only lasted for a moment. For the sake of the other children's glimmer of survival, Huang Lao Da might have to be sacrificed!
Several people walked towards Boss Huang resolutely. When the children saw their elders going there, they followed him. The remaining two clever kids even covered the bad boy's mouth to prevent him from shouting and ruining the Queen's plan.
Yes, in their eyes, Yunli, who is older than them, is a queen.
The war is about to start.
The five old men greeted each other face to face, and the four on this side rushed forward like wolves and tigers, locking up Mr. Huang in a few moves. The little brats on the other side were also very cunning, and only three of them were dispatched to successfully capture the other two.
When he was brought to Yunli, Old Man Huang was still yelling, "Have you four lost your minds? We have wasted all these years of friendship! You actually helped outsiders to harm me!"
Like a real bad guy, Yunli put one foot on the stool and tapped Huang Laoda's face with the sole of his shoe. "Tell me, what do you want this bad-hearted kid to do?"
When Boss Huang took a closer look, he realized that his little grandson, whom he had asked to find Hong Shixian, was pinned to the ground.
What else is there to say? It happened!
Boss Huang sat down on the ground: "There is nothing to say. I had evil intentions. General Hong and my family have a history, and I begged him to release my wife and grandchildren who are still alive, but General Hong said that if he wants to release them, he must exchange them, one for one. I thought, there are so many people in that team, so..."
What else don’t the other four old men understand!
This is just looking for someone to make an enemy for no reason.
The old man lifted Huang Lao Da up and slapped him in the face: "You are such a fool, such an idiot! He coaxed you into a one-for-one swap, did you really think he would swap you over if you took someone? Naive dog! If he could swap people, why didn't he swap you over? Ah? It's okay that you are stupid, but it's so rare that you meet a kind person, but you don't know how to beg him to help you take the children away, but instead you try to drag them down with you. What's the benefit? I ask you, what's the benefit?!"
"I begged!" Huang Lao Da cried out loudly, pounding his head on the old man's chest frantically, "I begged! They wouldn't give in! They wouldn't give in! What else can I do!"
"If you refuse, then kneel down and beg. If you still refuse, then come back and work with us! It's almost dark, and we're rushing over there overnight to follow them. Can they kill us? You're such a fool! You've caused these children so much trouble!"
The old ladies also understood that their previous request to ask the girl for help might not be successful.
Who would travel with someone who is trying to hurt them?
