Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning
Chapter 37 Staying Overnight
The man quickly lowered his head with a slight curve at the corners of his lips, and then he waited patiently for death to come.
The Japs came away with a group of people, dragging the man who was beaten half to death.
"Boss, what happened in this city? The city has been closed for six or seven days. When can we go back?"
"Father! I..." The shopkeeper's wife came over and lowered her head, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Have you seen that man?" the shopkeeper asked his wife in a low voice.
"Yeah! I've seen a few grandparents and grandchildren there and even had a few words with them, but they only stayed there for one night and then left!" the woman also said in a low voice.
"Swallow it and don't say a word. If you get involved with them, you will die! We still have to wait for the children to come back!" The shopkeeper reminded his wife.
"I know, I'm just worried that the family will tell."
"Don't worry! They would have said it just now if they wanted to."
The shopkeeper came to the table where several people were sitting down to continue eating and informed them, "I went out today and heard that you can leave the city tomorrow. You can go to your relatives."
"Thank you, brother. We will leave tomorrow. Please prepare some more dry food. We will settle the bill together when we pay the room fee tomorrow."
The shopkeeper nodded and left. Master Jiang Liu looked at the uncle and nephew who were eating peacefully. He didn't know whether to say that they were careless or he was used to it.
Jiang Wanting was still a little panicked, which could be seen from the way she held the chopsticks.
Yan Xuyang was already full. He was happily teasing the little baby who could only make "ah ah ah" sounds, and was sure that this was a heartless child.
After dinner, they went back to their room to pack up, and Jiang Jiyun was woken up by Jiang Wanting!
When they came out, Jiang Wenming had already harnessed the ox cart, and Jiang Liuye and the others had also loaded the things onto the ox cart.
"The gourds are now full of water! We can set off now!" Yan Xuyang came over holding two big gourds.
After settling the bill with the shopkeeper, Mr. Jiang Liu led them towards the city gate.
Seeing the long queue, they joined the back of it.
When it was their turn, Mr. Jiang Liu checked their household registration certificates and good citizen certificates one by one.
Several people also rummaged through their luggage and carefully checked their ox cart.
The inspection took a long time to complete. Yan Xuyang and Jiang Wenming gathered their things together and drove the ox cart out of the city.
On the ox cart, Jiang Jiyun hugged the baby, and Jiang Wanting followed them to carefully pack up the things.
Looking at the city gate that was getting farther and farther away, Jiang Jiyun thought that the man would definitely not survive! She didn't expect that there were tough guys in GMD! Maybe the TV series in later generations are really just TV series.
They walked for more than a month before reaching the border of Y City. They were exhausted from the journey and everyone, except the baby, was tanned.
"Uncle! Let's have a good rest for a few days! In the past month, we have only gone into the city to replenish supplies. Except for Xiaobao who drinks milk, we have only eaten steamed buns and pancakes every day. I haven't seen oil and water for a long time, and now I can't even poop!" Jiang Wenming stopped driving the ox cart.
"Okay, let's go have a good meal and replenish our body!" Mr. Jiang Liu agreed.
The cow had eaten well along the way and there was grass everywhere, but they, the people above, had lost a lot of weight.
"Yun girl, why haven't you lost weight? You're just a little darker. Why haven't you lost weight and instead there's still some flesh on your face?" Jiang Wenming pinched her cheeks with his hands.
"You...let me go!" Jiang Jiyun used all his strength to save his cheek.
"Hiss... Have you really improved your strength through training?" Jiang Wenming looked at her while clenching his hands.
"Do you think I'm joking? I've already built up my muscles. Isn't that awesome?" Jiang Jiyun pinched the muscles on his arms.
"Chicken? Did you steal a pheasant on the road? Why didn't I see it?" Yan Xuyang looked at Jiang Jiyun with wide eyes.
"Muscles, not the chicken you mentioned! It's the meat from this place." Master Jiang Liu pointed at Yan Xuxu's muscles and told him.
"Oh, I understand. It turns out that this tendon meat is called muscle!" Yan Xuyang laughed.
"Sixth Grandpa, I can see the top of the city gate. Now the sun is about to set. We may not have time to enter the city. Do you want to rest nearby for a night and go in tomorrow?" Jiang Wanting looked at the city gate in the distance.
"Okay, let's see if there is any village nearby where we can stay for the night!" Mr. Jiang Liu nodded in agreement.
"Uncle, is there a road over there that leads to the village?" Jiang Wenming pointed to the path next to him.
Master Jiang Liu looked at the white dirt road and said, "Many people walk along this road. Let's just follow it!"
After walking for a while, they saw a village with about twenty houses. They were stopped when they continued walking.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" A little boy holding a red tasseled spear ran out.
"Why are you the only child standing guard here? How can the adults be at ease? If we are bad guys, you will not survive!" Jiang Wenming said while looking at the child who was about ten years old.
"I came out to see you old people, children and women, otherwise I would have given the signal long ago! What are you doing in our village?" The boy asked again, looking at the group of them.
Jiang Wenming explained, "We are from L City, S Province. We are going to H City to visit relatives. It's getting late and we want to stay in your village for one night."
"Then wait a minute. I'll ask someone to find the adults. Xiaoyu, you go back to find the village chief."
"Okay!" Another bald boy jumped out from the bushes nearby and ran out.
Jiang Jiyun looked at those children. The children of this era were sensible at an early age, but in later generations, many children of this age would still be throwing tantrums and asking for toys.
Soon many people came out of the village, all holding weapons.
"Grandpas, uncles, we are just passing by and want to stay overnight. We are not here to cause any trouble!" Jiang Wenming explained in fear when he saw so many strong men holding weapons.
"what?"
"what?"
"Why did Xiaoyu say someone was causing trouble?"
……
Everyone looked at Xiaoyu who was rushing over, and saw him looking at everyone with a confused face.
"Well... I'm sorry, little brother. The child brought the wrong message back. You want to stay overnight, right? We need to check your household registration." The head of the village said a little embarrassedly.
Mr. Jiang Liu took out the documents from the bag and showed them to them, then put them away again.
"Brother! Are you fleeing?" the head of the village asked Mr. Jiang Liu.
"Brother! There are only a few of us left in our village, and they are all gone! Those beasts have no humanity at all! Our village is gone!" As Master Jiang Liu spoke, tears began to fall again.
When the villagers heard this, they all fell silent. Those beasts had come to their country and committed all kinds of atrocities, including burning, killing, and looting.
"Brother, is it safe for you to take the kids all the way to H City?"
"Don't mention it. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to avoid many dangers along the way. The hardships on the road were just like Tang Monk's journey to the West to seek Buddhist scriptures!"
