Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo

In the end, Xu Ning spent 100 points to exchange for a telescope, which was a single-tube portable one. It was very small and about the same length as Xu Ning's palm.

Xu Ning immediately felt that she had overpaid. She had previously bought a much more exquisite item for her nephew on Taobao for only 68 yuan including shipping.

"Bao, are you being unscrupulous?" She would never believe that the treasure box had not been emptied.

"Hello player, there are only treasures in the treasure chest." What is conscience, and how can there be treasures in the treasure chest?

Xu Ning was itching to find a way to make money.

"Daya, what is this?" When Xu Ning took out the telescope from the box, Old Man Xu saw it from the side.

Xu Ning was still adjusting the focus and was about to respond to Old Man Xu when his face suddenly changed.

"Grandpa, no, brother, go and call Uncle Li over! Quickly!" Xu Ning's face was extremely pale. Seeing this, Xu Dabao also hurriedly ran towards the cart of Li the Hunter in front.

"What's wrong, Daya? Are you feeling unwell?" The Xu family's team stopped, and Xu Ning was still unable to come back to his senses. Li the hunter had already put down the cart and followed Xu Dabao over.

"Uncle, there is a killing ahead, let's run!" Xu Ning became completely exhausted after saying this. She was really scared. Having grown up under the red flag for so many years, she had never faced such a situation directly. She was really panicked at the moment.

After Xu Ning finished speaking, the Xu family also panicked. Anything could happen on the road of fleeing famine. Although they didn't know how Xu Ning knew what happened before, they didn't dare to ignore it.

"Daya, how did you know that?" Xu Ning didn't care anymore and handed the telescope to Li the Hunter, and showed him how to operate it.

"Oh no, it's bandits!" Li the hunter was used to closing one eye when he was shooting arrows. After Xu Ning taught him how to use a telescope, Li the hunter quickly learned it and saw that what Xu Ning saw was the murderous bandits slaughtering refugees fleeing famine!

It turned out that there was a group of people ahead of the Xujia Village's fleeing team. Among that group of people, there was a family with guards. However, these guards showed no ability to resist the bandits at all!

The Xu family members were walking at the end of the people in Xujia Village. In fact, they could have just left at this time. This would not alert the main force or cause chaos, but would have been safer.

But the Xu family couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts, so they decided to inform the people in Xujia Village about the situation, which would put them in danger.

But in the current situation we can only take one step at a time. The Xu family is not stupid. They will only tell the other people in Xujia Village about the situation. It is up to them whether to believe it or not. It is impossible for them to run away together. Whether they can survive depends entirely on their own abilities!

Li the Hunter had thought about resisting together with the people of Xujia Village, but his interactions along the way made him realize that, except for Xu Da's family, no one else in Xujia Village could be trusted.

Time was running out and they had no time to think. Li the hunter carried his wife, children and some belongings on his back, and the Xu family followed suit and only took some luggage, as they could not take the cart with them.

Old Mrs. Xu quickly picked up a clay pot, Xu Da carried Old Man Xu on his back, Xu Dabao held a quilt, and Zhang nervously pulled Xu Ning and Xu Xiaobao.

Hunter Li first took his wife, children and Xu's family to the mountain and told them to go in one direction. He then turned around to report the news.

"Brother Xu, Uncle Xu, Aunt Xu! Please help look after my wife and children. I'll be back soon!" Li the hunter was a fast runner. He ran a few steps and came to the village chief of Xujia Village who was several dozen meters ahead.

Hunter Li lowered his voice and said a few words. The village chief waved his hand and everyone in Xujia Village stopped.

After saying this, Hunter Li hurried to where the Xu family was. The village chief quickly gathered all the men from each family. They did not dare to speak loudly, but some of them were still shouting out of concern.

The village chief was so angry that he quickly asked his family to throw away the unwanted things. He didn't care about the lives of these idiots and ran quickly in the direction where the Xu family ran.

Those people in Xujia Village who didn't believe in evil were still complacent. After all, they hadn't seen any real murderous bandits along the way. They were like newborn calves that were not afraid of tigers and were still picking up pots and pans left behind by other people in the village.

But when the sound of the bandits' horses reached their ears, they were terrified and wanted to run, but they had no chance.

"Help!"

"Killing people!!"

"Help!"

"Don't kill me, I know where the others ran to! Please don't kill me!"

……

The villagers of Xujia Village who had not run far away all had ugly faces. The screams of fear not far away told them that if they had not run fast, they would be the ones to die now! If they did not run fast now, they would die soon too!

"Son, hurry up to the mountain and into the woods!" Horses can't run into the woods, so they still have a chance to survive!

"Son, mother can't walk anymore, you should run quickly!" The old woman had a sad face. She had managed to survive the famine when she was young, but now she couldn't do it anymore.

"Mom, no, my son has to be with you. Without you, my son will have no home!" Such scenes happened in various places in Xujia Village.

Xu Xiaohu was a filial son. He immediately dropped the things he was carrying, carried his mother on his back and continued running.

There were also a few other families who were unwilling to give up, but they did not have the courage of Xu Xiaohu, who could abandon all their belongings without hesitation. While they were hesitating, the bandits wielding machetes had already appeared before them!

For a moment, the cries and screams for mercy were heard again!

Faced with life and death, they finally became afraid. Many of them left their elderly, children, wives and daughters behind and ran away alone. For a while, the air was filled with thick despair!

The Xu family had already followed Li the hunter into the mountains. At this moment, they could still vaguely hear screams and felt a wave of fear in their hearts.

It was not until dark, when the howling of wolves and roaring of tigers echoed in the mountains, that those demons who had slaughtered with reckless abandon decided to return home.

At this time, there were only three or five families left alive in Xujia Village.

The sound of the bandits' horses became increasingly distant. About half an hour later, the survivors of Xujia Village began to emerge from their hiding places one after another.

For a while, wailing and crying sounds were heard intermittently.

Hunter Li found a cave, cleaned it up briefly, protected the entrance with bramble branches, settled his wife and children, greeted the Xu family, and then took an unlit torch to look for the surviving people in Xu Village.

Xu Da wanted to go with them, but Li the Hunter stopped him.

"Brother Xu, I'm helping to find people but I'm not going to bring them here." Li the hunter is just trying his best to help, he's not a savior. There isn't much food to begin with, and after this incident he's realized that there aren't many people in Xujia Village who can be trusted, and he doesn't want to bring danger back.

Xu Da is from Xujia Village, but he is not. Another reason why he didn't take Xu Da with him was that he was worried that if those people started crying and making a fuss, Xu Da might become soft-hearted.

The result was just as Li the Hunter had expected. Even though Li the Hunter lied and said Xu Da was injured, the people in Xujia Village still thought that Xu Da's family had lost their conscience. They didn't even think about the fact that if the Xu family hadn't told them the situation at that time, none of them might have survived!

Therefore, even though these people begged repeatedly, Li the Hunter did not take them to Xu Da's family.

It was pitch dark and they were in the woods, so Li the Hunter was not afraid of them finding him. Without his experience, these people would not be able to find him.

"Brother Li, thank you!" Xu Xiaohu fell into a pit while carrying his mother on his back. Fortunately, they escaped and both mother and son only suffered minor injuries.

Later, Li the hunter came and pulled him and his mother out of the pit, and built a fire for everyone. Now Xu Xiaohu and his mother were sitting together roasting the fire and they felt alive again.

Others: "Brother Li, thank you so much, I will give you a chance in the future..."

"No need, let's just say goodbye!" Li the hunter was also very tired. It was already late at night and he had not eaten since he escaped during the day. He was more worried about his wife and didn't want to be involved with these people anymore.

The head of Xujia Village saw this and his eyes flickered. Finally, he sighed. When the villagers of Xujia Village saw that Li the Hunter had left, some wanted to secretly follow him, but were stopped by the head of the village: "If you don't want to live, go collect the bodies of your family members!"

The man's face changed, his greed was extinguished and his mind became clear, and he realized that following him would be as dangerous as collecting the bodies.

Since Li the Hunter has said that he won't join them, no one knows what will happen if he forces his way in.

As for collecting the bodies? The excited howling in the forest told them that collecting the bodies would make them die faster!

The other living people all looked deathly pale when they heard the village chief's words. Even Xu Qianqian, who was usually noisy, became quiet.

On the other side, the Xu family lit a fire after Li the Hunter left.
