Chapter 231 The Old Man in the Dungeon
Everyone sat there, all looking sad.
Xie Zirui also bowed his head and said nothing. At this moment, he was also worried, and he didn't know where the people his father sent were.
In this situation, when can they find him?
As the days go by, difficulties arise day by day.
"Mom, it's okay now. Let me go see if Dad is back."
Zhang waved her hand weakly, "Yiyi, you and Zirui go together."
Yun Yiyi turned to look at Xie Zirui, "Brother Zirui, come with me."
"Let's go." After Xie Zirui said this, he walked in front with his hands behind his back.
Yun Yiyi took a few quick steps and caught up.
"Brother Zirui, what do you think of Qingfeng Village? I always feel like I've overlooked something. But I can't remember what it is."
"Yiyi, I think it will be difficult for us to get past the obstacle of Qingfeng Village."
"There's really no way around it unless we're determined to take the small path."
"As for what you said is wrong, I feel the same way."
Xie Zirui hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yiyi, have you ever thought that a village cannot only have young and strong people?"
"As long as it's a mountain stronghold, there will definitely be women, old people, and children. However, the bandits who captured Qingfeng Village two months ago only had young and strong men."
Yun Yiyi stopped and thought about it carefully. "Yes, Brother Zirui, now I know what's going on. There can't be only young and strong people in the village."
"Yiyi, as far as I know, the army is the only one that has young and strong men. Because when recruiting soldiers, the government has a requirement that only young and strong men are wanted, not the elderly, children, and women."
Yun Yiyi clapped her hands and said, "Brother Zirui, you are right. The bandits in Qingfeng Village now really look like soldiers in banditry."
"Yiyi, the bandits in Qingfeng Village robbed food and silver, and now they want people. I think they are being prepared by others."
"If there were only the bandits in Qingfeng Village, the food they robbed once would be enough for them to eat for a long time. There is no need for them to risk their lives and rob food frequently."
"Brother Zirui, what you said makes sense. Although the world is in chaos now, there are government officials in the town. The bandits in Qingfeng Village are too arrogant."
"They don't take the government seriously at all. In my opinion, it's more like the bandits from Qingfeng Village secretly colluding with the government and working together as a traitor."
Xie Zirui's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Yun Yiyi's mind to work so quickly.
Normally, a child of Yun Yiyi's age wouldn't understand so much. Yun Yiyi really gave him too many surprises.
"Brother Zirui, if Qingfeng Village is indeed as we analyzed, we will be in big trouble this time."
"We are really in a dilemma."
"Yes, Yiyi. With just the people in our village, we are definitely no match for the bandits in Qingfeng Village."
Yun Yiyi took a deep breath and said, "Most of the people in our village used to farm. It's not bad for us to deal with the refugees who came to steal food."
"If we run into the bandits from Qingfeng Village, I think we'll be wiped out."
"Yiyi, don't worry. Let's go see if the village chief has any good ideas."
"After all, we have to keep moving forward."
"This is the only way. Let's see what the villagers think first."
So, the two of them continued to look for Yun the Butcher.
In Qingfeng Village, not far from Shilin Town, all the bandits are gathered in the meeting room to discuss matters.
"Brother, we have transported all the food we looted from the mountain in the past two months, except for enough for ourselves."
A big bearded man sitting in the main seat said, "Okay, the weather will get colder in the future, and we will go to collect the grain of the villagers down the mountain on the agreed day."
"Brother, these villagers at the foot of the mountain are all farmers. I guess they will run out of food after just a few harvests."
"Didn't I tell you before that if there's no food, there will be people to take its place. But when you go to collect the food, be sure to keep an eye out, because the men will serve as soldiers for the Second Prince."
"Women shouldn't be too old either, and they have to be able to cook. Then, they can be sent to the army to serve as firemen."
"Brother, the firemen have always been men, why are you recruiting women this time?"
"The Second Prince said that the food cooked by the former firemen was not good, but the food cooked by the soldiers below was good."
"He asked us to recruit some women who can cook so that we can prepare special meals for the generals in the army."
"Brother, now I understand. But the big pot rice made by the fireman is really unpalatable."
"If someone uses women to exchange for food this time, we have to keep a few in our village."
The eldest boss glanced at the third brother who was speaking and said, "You are the only one who is troublesome. Everyone can eat, but you are the only one who is picky."
"Hey, brother, if a woman cooks for you, don't eat it. Just eat the big pot meal that the refugees eat."
"Okay, let's get back to business. The Second Prince asked us to disguise ourselves as bandits so that we can collect food and money, so we have to keep an eye out for the fat sheep."
"By the way, Third Brother, is the rich man we robbed at the foot of the mountain a few days ago, the old man who spoke in a pedantic way, still alive?"
"Brother, the old man is in a dungeon, he only has two meals a day, and he is barely alive. Brother, why did you want to ask him?"
"The food and silver that the old man brought were all delivered to the Second Prince. In the warehouse, only the cart of books that the old man brought was left."
"Brother, in my opinion, those old man's books are useless. Just burn them. And kill the old man."
"Third brother, I'm not saying anything to you, but you're thinking too simply. Do you know that old man? You should kill him."
"Although scholars are not very strong in combat, the impact they have caused is huge."
"Brother, I still suggest that we find a way to find out the old man's identity before making any plans."
"Scholars are full of tricks. We should try to persuade that old man to surrender and try to bring him to the Second Prince's side."
"Second brother, isn't he just an old man? How much influence can he have? In my opinion, it's better to kill him to save trouble."
"Brother, don't listen to my third brother. I remember when we went down the mountain to rob that old man, he brought many escorts with him."
"If it weren't for the people from Qingfeng Village who brought so many people with them, the old man might have gotten away. I think this old man is not simple."
"Third brother, what the second brother said makes sense. Just because the old man dared to go south with several carts of food and money at this time, this old man is not simple."
"The old man is already in our dungeon anyway, so we might as well wait a little longer."
