Transformed into an extremely evil grandmother and fled to escape famine with her children and grand
Chapter 28: Escape into the Mountains
"Village head, let's run. That vicious old lady Wu has brought the county yamen runners to our place to capture the men in the village and send them to King Jin to serve as soldiers, and to capture the girls and sell them to brothels."
Goudan ran to the village chief panting and spoke quickly.
Ma Dazui asked anxiously, "Goudan, how did you know?"
It turned out that Goudan had once again sneaked into the city through the dog hole in the city wall, trying to see if he could beg for a few cakes to eat while fleeing the famine. His grandmother was old and had injuries on her body. When he passed by a pancake stall with his back to the street, he heard Old Lady Wu talking loudly to someone.
"We must capture the men in Hanjia Village today. Once we knock them out, we'll send them to King Jin to exchange for silver. Most importantly, we must capture all the girls and wives in the village and sell them to brothels."
Her son Wu Laosan also said, "Mom, we also need to bring back all the grain donkey carts in the village."
"Yes, yes, yes. I'm going to seize everything from that bastard Li Lanzhen's house. I'm going to capture all three of Li Lanzhen's sons, as well as her brothers and nephews, and send them to King Jin to be used as human targets on the battlefield."
"Mom, let Han Yuemei be your son's wife. Send the others to brothels to exchange for silver. Don't sell Miao Miao to a brothel because she's pretty. Give her to the masters of wealthy families. These rich people all have special hobbies."
Goudan followed them slowly, listening, his hands clenched into fists.
He followed them all the way to the county government office. After watching them go in, Goudan turned around and ran, crawling through the dog hole and running all the way back.
After hearing Goudan’s description, the people in Hanjia Village were furious.
They all cursed Old Lady Wu and her son for being inhumane and said they were not even from Hanjia Village.
Suddenly, Li Lanzhen thought of what the guard had said to her, and suddenly realized what was going on. She quickly said to the village chief, "Village chief, when we were leaving the city, the guard whispered to me, asking us to leave quickly and go deep into the mountains."
Listening to the noisy people and hearing Li Lanzhen's words, the village chief waved his hand and said, "Pack up your things, we are going into the mountains."
Li Lanzhen got into the donkey cart given by the Zhou family and put all the things inside into the space. She let Han Minghai drive the cart, and his wife and two children got in.
Several children around 3 years old in the village were also held tightly by Li Lanzhen and made to sit. Ignoring the grateful looks of the villagers, Li Lanzhen held Han Yuemei's hand and followed the donkey cart up the mountain.
Every household in Hanjia Village quickly packed up their belongings, took their children and the elderly, got ready immediately, and came to the village chief, stood there and waited for the village chief to give orders before leaving.
The village chief looked at Xue Lao Hu and smiled, "I want to learn from my old brother Xue. You can lead us into the mountains, okay?"
Xue Lao Hu nodded, "Okay, Village Chief, our family will take the lead, and you guys will follow behind."
Because they had a car, Xue Lao Hu led everyone to walk through the ravines and then walk into the mountains from the ravines.
The fleeing families nearby saw how hurriedly the Hanjiacun people left and felt unsafe, so they packed up their things and followed them from a distance. Some of them even left from the same village.
Of course, there were also those who did not believe it and just lay there, waiting for the Linshui County Government to give them relief food.
The people of Hanjia Village fled quickly, and when it got dark, they had already entered a valley sandwiched between three mountains.
Although we chose to walk through the valley, it was a place no one had ever been to and there was no ready-made road, so we were all exhausted.
No matter whether it was a donkey cart, an ox cart, or a flatbed cart, they were all shaking so badly that they were about to fall apart.
There are three pregnant women in the village. Zhang Yue Niang is fine. She takes the bus whenever she can. But when she got here, she couldn't stand it anymore and squatted on the ground vomiting.
Li Lanzhen was thinking about going to the mall in the evening to see if there was any pregnancy-preserving medicine for the three pregnant women. In ancient times, for a woman to become pregnant and give birth was like dancing on swords, and it all depended on fate.
Not to mention that they are still fleeing famine.
She felt sad for a while because of the pregnant women, then stood up and looked around. There were mountains everywhere, but very little green. Only the tops of the mountains were lush and green.
The brothers Han Minghai and Han Mingjiang, together with Li Guangyang, cleared a large area and built a simple shed with the help of trees.
From the middle of the mountain down, the trees are all bare, and the grass is so dry that it makes a crackling sound when you step on it and breaks into pieces.
Xue Lao Hu frowned as he looked at the group of refugees who were coming up from behind and setting up camp not far behind them.
I'm afraid the road into the mountains has already been paved. If the people from the county government can't find the people from Hanjia Village, they will definitely chase after them, because the traces of entering the mountains are too obvious.
Li Lanzhen also noticed this incident. She frowned and looked at the village in the distance. The adults were shouting and the children were making a lot of noise.
The environment is too noisy. As long as the officers and soldiers go into the mountains, they will follow the traces of Te Miao and find this place. It will not be a problem to catch the people of Hanjia Village.
When she thought of this, she strode up to the village chief, and Xue Lao Hu also came to find the village chief.
"Village chief, we are too unsafe here. Look, so many people followed us in. It will be easy for the soldiers to find us." After saying this, Li Lanzhen looked at the village chief, wanting him to understand her thoughts.
Xue Lao Hu also nodded, "That's right, village chief, the road up the mountain has been paved, it's very obvious, it's easy for the soldiers to find this place.
We need to think of a solution sooner rather than later. Either we continue walking deeper into the mountains, or we go up the mountain to the east, climb over this mountain, and then climb over two more mountains. Then we can go down the mountain and reach the official road to Youzhou."
Han Deshun and others gathered around the village chief. They heard what Li Lanzhen and Xue Laohu said and began to worry. They all watched to see what the village chief said. If they wanted to leave, they had to keep going. If they didn't leave, they would have a way to resist the soldiers.
The village chief looked at the various vehicles and sighed, "We go up the mountain, cross the mountain to the east, and go directly down the mountain to the official road to Youzhou. But what about these vehicles? It is definitely not possible to go up the mountain. We have to carry everything ourselves."
Looking at the mountain in the east, it is the shortest among these mountains. However, it is really not easy for men, women, old and young to carry their families up the mountain.
Compared with my own life, it doesn't seem like a big deal.
Finally, everyone expressed their decision and decided to go up the mountain and cross the mountain to the east.
As long as people are united, there is nothing to be afraid of.
So the village chief said, eat something to fill your stomach, drink a cup of tea, and then go up the mountain.
At this time, Xue Bao came and wiped the sweat off Xue Lao Hu's face. "Dad, there is a road leading up the mountain. It was probably trampled out by hunters or herb pickers. It is wide enough for a car to pass. If it is not passable, the car may not be able to pass."
The village chief looked at Xue Lao Hu with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder. "You are a good son. Let's go up the mountain and go as far as the car can go."
Just like that, the people of Hanjia Village started to go up the mountain again. When the villagers from the surrounding villages saw them going up the mountain again, they looked up at the sky which was about to get dark, shook their heads in confusion, continued to lie down and rest, and decided to go up the mountain again tomorrow morning.
The people of Hanjia Village are so strong that they continue to move forward.
The child was stumbling sleepily, but he still held the adult's hand tightly and walked forward with his short legs.
The adults got off the bus, and the children were carried to lie on the bus. Several families threw the large furniture they had carried from their homes on their shoulders down the mountain.
They did as the village chief suggested and traveled light, found a good place, built a house, planted crops, and bought furniture. However, they were caught by soldiers, their entire family was scattered, and they were left with nothing.
Fortunately, the people in Hanjia Village listened to the advice and repacked their luggage, and they were indeed much faster.
They had not walked very high when they heard deafening shouts and flames coming from the place where they had been stationed at the foot of the mountain.
Da Jiao was secretly glad that they had all gone up the mountain, and was also worried that this place was not far from the bottom of the mountain, so he walked even faster.
