In the book, I was fed by my sister

The moon shone on the snow, revealing a series of footprints left by Song Li.

The memories of yesterday flooded into Song Li's mind like a tide. Su Xiaoxiao's description of the current situation filled Song Li's heart with uneasiness and worry.

That large group of people were full of hostility, like a bomb hidden in the dark, ready to explode at any time.

We need to find someone to ask clearly and understand the intention and purpose of this group of people.

I am prepared to solve these troubles, but I don't want the peaceful life I have with my sister to be disrupted.

She felt some pity for Li Dongya. She had some good intentions towards the role of the elder sister, otherwise she would have taken action against the insider long ago to prevent future troubles.

As for the little interactions she had with Li Dongya later, she felt that this person was quite interesting. He treated her as a non-existent demon and was filled with inexplicable awe towards her.

Li Dongya sat quietly in the room where Li Jinbao had slept before.

There were only two rooms in their house where people could sleep. One was spacious and bright, where her parents and Li Jinbao previously lived.

The other room was a small house converted from a woodshed where the three sisters squeezed into one.

Later, when her father died, she moved into that spacious house.

Now the two people living in the big house are also dead.

The two younger sisters were afraid and did not dare to sleep in the big house.

There's nothing to be afraid of dead people.

Now she is alone in the big house.

She sat in the house, quietly waiting for Song Li to arrive.

During the day on the mountain, she could feel the lingering gaze.

The moonlight outside the window sprinkled on the snow, and the white and peaceful scene outside the window was bright, but her heart was full of worries and uneasiness.

At this moment, a figure was suddenly reflected in the window.

Li Dongya's heart tightened, and she immediately stood up to open the door. When she saw Song Li standing in front of the door, she called out respectfully, "Immortal."

Song Li sat upright on the bed, looking solemn. The vines that emerged from the ground lifted Li Dongya's chin and asked, "How did you provoke those people?"

When Li Dongya saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of awe in his heart.

He just felt that Song Li was like a god with boundless magical powers, and he was just an insignificant mortal. How could he dare to lie in front of a god?

She took a deep breath, trying to calm the tension in her heart, and then answered carefully: "Two months ago, I went to the neighboring village to steal sweet potatoes. Unexpectedly, I ran into Bai Tongsheng from the village having an affair with... a woman on the road." When she said this, her face felt a little hot, and she glanced at Song Li, who looked like a child in front of her.

Seeing that Song Li looked calm, she sighed and continued, "During their conversation, they mentioned the matter of smuggled salt, and I became greedy. Then, I noticed that woman, and also got in touch with a smuggled salt dealer, and successfully helped him bring smuggled salt several times. He thought I was more useful, so he took me to meet the big guy."

"The big guy's surname is Huang, and his family was originally engaged in the salt business. Later, because the government imposed heavy taxes, they began to sell private salt. Last year, there was a severe drought in Wuzhou, and the people were living in poverty, so they began to rebel."

After hearing this, Song Li frowned and said in a deep voice: "This is really a big trouble. I'm afraid the village will not be at peace."

Today, after returning home, Su Xiaoxiao said: This group of people wanted to capture Fengxian County.

As Su Xiaoxiao expected, these people left quietly in the second half of the night and left people to guard the road leading into the village.

This is to use Lihua Village as a garrison point. If we win, it will be fine, but if we lose, the whole village will be implicated.

Li Dongya swallowed his saliva and said, "What does this have to do with the village? They are from Wuzhou, but they will stay here for a few nights and then leave."

Song Li didn't say anything else, just thought silently.

The two place names Fengxian and Wuzhou echoed in her mind. Although she was not very familiar with this strange world, from the conversation between her sister and Su Xiaoxiao, she could already sense the importance of these two places.

Fengxian, located at the transportation hub between the north and the south, is a fortress connecting the south and the north. Wuzhou is one of the richest cities in the south, and its prosperity is almost unmatched.

Once the Huang army occupies Wuzhou and cuts off Fengxian, the entire southern region will be like being devoured by a ferocious beast and gradually fall into their control.

Li Dongya looked at Song Li who was lost in thought and asked cautiously, "Master, is there something wrong?"

Song Li came back to her senses and responded calmly: "What benefits did they promise you?"

Li Dongya hesitated for a moment, then replied: "They said they were short of food and horses, so I offered to help them lead a team of horses out. If they really agree to let me do this, then I can get involved in their private salt business, and no longer be just a runner like I am now."

Song Li frowned slightly and asked, "Are you doing this just for money?"

Li Dongya was silent for a while, then replied: "It's not just for money. My uncles will be released from prison in five years at most, and they will definitely cause trouble for us when they get out."

"So you want to leave?"

"Yes, I want to save some money and leave here with my two sisters."

She didn't want to rely on anyone, not even her uncle.

I stood up for her at that time, but I also wanted to get the gift money from my sister and her mother after her death.

"Then do you know where this group of people are going now?"

Li Dongya shook his head and said, "Isn't it in the village?"

"I think I'm heading towards the city."

Li Dongya was shocked and asked, "So...are they planning to attack the city? I don't understand. What is the purpose of this incident today? Why do they want me to lead a team of troops out?"

"The surrendered officers and soldiers are now fast asleep in the hall, with their armor stripped off. They want to sneak in with some men at night, and then join forces from inside and outside."

Li Dongya was horrified when she heard this. She swallowed and said, "What if a fight really breaks out..."

Song Li interrupted her coldly and said, "If a fight really breaks out, Lihua Village will be implicated if they lose. Do you think they are good leaders if they win?"

Li Dongya was silent for a moment, then shook her head. She thought of the leader surnamed Huang, whose greedy eyes were almost glued to her.

If they really succeed, Lihua Village will probably fall into endless disaster. Thinking of this, Li Dongya felt regretful.

Song Li looked at Li Dongya and said slowly, "Don't regret it. If it wasn't you who was used, there were others. If it wasn't Lihua Village, it would be other villages. Let me ask you, how many people are there in total?"

Li Dongya thought for a moment and said, "I don't know the details, but in addition to the people who entered the village today, there are still many people stationed at Baitan."

Song Li secretly estimated that there were at least 300 people in total. It was estimated that the food was also stored at Baitan.

"How many horses do they have? And are all of them armed?"

"There were horses and donkeys. The number of horses did not exceed fifty. Most of the people were holding weapons that could not be considered weapons. Most of them had sickles and the like."

Song Li nodded. If she really wanted to fight with them, she would have a chance of winning, but it would be difficult if she didn't expose herself.

But now that she has figured out the other party's manpower, she can make plans in advance.

"You are doing this..." Song Li leaned over and whispered a few words in Li Dongya's ear.

Li Dongya was very excited. After all, it was the first time he was asked to do something.

After the first time, there will be countless times. Does this mean that Song Li will treat her as one of his own?

"Okay, I will definitely finish it."

"By the way, Immortal, I stole a crop from the next village. Can you see how it sprouted?"
