Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

Wait until the bandits take the villagers away.

Liu Yuhan and others came out of the dark forest and saw three people coming out from another place.

“Brother, Brother Fugui, Liu Neng!”

"Xiaohan, my uncle, aunt, grandparents, my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, and everyone in the village have all been captured. Woohoo... We don't know how to save them..."

The three of them were among those on duty tonight. Because Liu Laizi was timid, he dragged the other two along with him to the toilet and thus escaped this disaster.

........................

Everyone walked to the side of the murdered old woman, who was the old hunter's mother.

The old hunter's family is simple. He got married when he was nearly 30 years old. Apart from his old mother who is over 60 years old, there are his wife Ma and his 12-year-old son Liu Wazi.

Liu knelt beside her, closed her eyes with her hands, took a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped the blood off her face.

Liu Yuhan and the others picked up the leftover tools and dug a large pit. They brought over the cloth towels, straw mats, and quilts from their campsite, laying the straw mats at the bottom and the cloth towels on top. Liu then carried her down into the pit, laid her flat, and covered her entire body with the quilt...

A wooden sign was erected at the new grave, and everyone kowtowed three times in front of the grave.

"Auntie, don't worry, we will rescue you and avenge you..."

...........................

Liu Yuhan and others put all the valuables that everyone did not take with them on several ox carts, pushed the carts into the bushes and hid them.

Holding the machete or hoe that they did not take away and carrying two backpacks, they followed the traces of the crowd quietly.

This trail lasted until dawn, and took nearly two hours.

It turned out that they had gone around the back mountain here. This mountain road was relatively flat and easy to walk on, so they must have taken this road frequently.

Could it be that the place where they set up camp is the bandits' only way through?! What a horrible bad luck!

Bandit stronghold.

"These guys are tough. Let's lock them up for two days first. Give them some water and make sure they don't starve to death. I'm going to sleep." The scarred man said impatiently to another person.

"Hey, okay, big brother." said a younger brother.

Liu Yuhan looked towards the bandit's lair with a telescope and saw the villagers being pushed into a large cave.

"They've been imprisoned in the cave. As long as they don't resist, there shouldn't be any problems for the time being. Before we understand the situation clearly, we can't act rashly or we might harm them."

"My daughter, I will listen to you no matter what you say." Liu Shinan's eyes were bloodshot. He hadn't slept all night because he was anxious.

"Let's find a place to rest first. We don't want our own people to collapse from exhaustion before we rescue them."

Liu Yuhan reached into the covered backpack, took out a few water bags, and used the backpack to take out more than 10 steamed buns from the space.

After everyone finished eating and drinking, they all leaned against the big rocks and took a nap. Liu Yang was on guard first, and then Xu Fugui took his place.

Liu Yuhan leaned against his mother and entered the space. He took out a foldable canvas backpack filled with poison, drugs, and a flashlight.

Liu Laizi had a hoe, Xu Fugui had a machete, and they took two long machetes from the space, which they had taken from the bandit's lair last time, and prepared them for themselves and their elder brother to use.

The backpack was filled with some compressed biscuits and steamed buns with their wrappings removed.

While eating, they agreed that it would be best to blend in with the bandits without being noticed, and it would be best if they could move around freely among the bandits.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs?

Let’s talk about it after we have a good rest. Now is not a good time.

Moreover, why did the bandits capture even the elderly and children? If they captured the able-bodied men for hard labor, then why did they capture the elderly and children?

After resting, Liu Shinan kept observing with a telescope. Everyone was thinking about how they could sneak in.

They soon found the opportunity. They were probably the two guards, wearing dark clothes and covering their faces, walking towards them, probably to relieve themselves.

Liu knocked them unconscious with three punches and two strikes without making a sound. Xu Fugui and Liu Yang dragged the two men behind a rock, tied their hands and feet, and gagged them.

Xu Fugui and Liu Laizi put on their already taken-off outer garments, covered their faces, and tried to sneak in. Their figures were similar to those of the two bandits.

Liu Yuhan told them to be careful. If they were accidentally exposed, they should run away quickly and try not to speak. They should first find out some information and come to inform the others at night if possible.

The two of them returned to the bandit village very naturally. Especially Liu Laizi, who had been a gangster in the past and had a ruffian spirit in him, and he was also smart and cunning.

Normally, he would talk to people one way and talk to people another way. Soon, he was able to strike up a conversation with the people around him and become friends.

Even those who didn't know him knew that he was a new brother who had just arrived and brought that group of villagers with him.

Liu Laizi would occasionally interject a few words into the villagers' conversation and soon managed to get out some useful information.

Xu Fugui remained silent and listened more.

Villagers imprisoned in a cave.

"You guys go sit at the entrance of the cave. Although there's no one guarding it, if anyone gets close, make some noise. I'll give everyone a few words first."

Liu Mang asked a few young men to guard the door. The door of the cave was made of a large piece of wood and was locked.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me. Now that we're all locked up, the most important thing is to save our lives first and avoid conflict with the bandits. Everyone, grit your teeth and don't reveal a single word. Otherwise, you'll hurt yourself and others, and the village will no longer tolerate you. Do you know everything? Say hello to the younger ones and don't say a word."

"We are not cowards. If it weren't for their threats, we wouldn't have come to this. Everyone should remain vigilant and wait for their letter. We should believe them."

The villagers nodded, feeling much more at ease after hearing what Village Chief Liu said. All they needed to do now was wait.

"Liu boy, you and your family have to bear with it, okay? Everyone knows that you are upset, but if we can't get out, how can we avenge your mother?" The clan elder said to the old hunter.

The old hunter nodded with red eyes.

The old people and women in the family held their children in their arms and whispered instructions to them.

Even though these children were tired and hungry, they did not dare to shout or scream.

They know that the environment has changed. These people will not just beat and scold them like they do with their family members. These bad guys will kill people.

Xiao Si snuggled in his grandmother's arms and talked to her secretly.

"Sister will come to rescue us."

"Shh, stop talking. Go to sleep. You won't be hungry when you sleep."

"Well, grandma, I have some malt candy my sister gave me hidden in my arms. I'll give it to you." Xiao Si said in a low voice, took out a piece of candy from his arms and put it into grandma's mouth.

"Be good, Xiao Si, eat by yourself."

"Then Xiaowu and I will eat it, half each."

"Okay, I won't be hungry after eating candy."
