Chapter 132 Those People Don’t Look Like Good People
Yunlai Town is about 500 miles away from the provincial capital, and it takes two days by horse carriage.
So that night, the group needed to find a forest to camp.
Feiyu went ahead to explore the way, and came back after a while and said:
"There's a forest ahead, but there are already people there. Not many, just two families. They look like refugees from the south."
After he said that, they could set up camp there.
Xiao Yan said: "Then let's go to the forest ahead and rest for a night!"
Even though they had just left Yunshui County within 200 miles, Zhou Lingling and her family felt the "deep dew and heavier rain" that they had never felt in Yunshui.
As soon as the sun sets, you can feel a slight chill.
So having a place with some shelter is better than being outdoors.
After walking another mile, we saw the forest that Feiyu mentioned.
Right next to the official road.
There were indeed people inside, and a fire had been lit in an open space in the middle.
Zhou Lingling heard the old man's scolding and the baby's crying.
When the sound of horses was heard outside, the scolding and crying disappeared instantly, and the fire was kicked out with a few kicks.
The people who were sitting around the fire just now stood up one after another. Several men even picked up the axes and sticks at hand and stared at Zhou Lingling and her group with vigilance.
However, Feiyu, Tieyuan and others on horseback did not look around, but passed them directly and headed towards the place ahead that Feiyu had already set his eyes on.
Zhou Lingling knew that those people had not withdrawn their gazes.
She withdrew her hand and lowered the curtain of the carriage.
Refugees.
They encountered quite a few throughout the day.
Those who are running north now are either those who can no longer survive in the southernmost villages, or they are far-sighted and smart people.
The former are mostly survivors from the same village who migrate together, like Meixiang’s village, but there are mostly middle-aged men and older children in it, with very few elderly people and women.
The latter are mostly families migrating, such as those not far from them at this moment, including the elderly, women, and even babies.
In the end, are the refugees everywhere more important, or are the 100,000 soldiers and border defense in the northern border more important?
Zhou Lingling suddenly fell silent.
The group stopped in the woods, unloaded the carriage and covered it with thick felt, letting the horses loosen themselves.
Zhou Lingling's two horses and a cow have a very good relationship. They don't hang out with other horses. The two horses and the cow walked away and stood in a group, wagging their tails and breathing heavily. I wonder if they were chatting...
Dahuang was the first cow their family bought. Northern Xinjiang was too far away, and Zhou Laoer and Zhou Yun were reluctant to part with Dahuang. They were even more worried that Dahuang would go with them but not be able to reach Northern Xinjiang, so they originally planned to leave Dahuang and the other cow at home.
But Dahuang didn't want to. That evening, when Zhou Laoer fed Dahuang and was about to leave, Dahuang bit Zhou Laoer's clothes.
Zhou Laoer tried to pull it free for a long time but failed. Finally, he said that he would take it with him, and Dahuang finally gave in.
This morning, Zhou Laoer and Tie Yuan went to harness the horses to the carriage. Dahuang followed the two horses out by himself, and no one untied the rope for him.
Zhou Laoer was deeply moved, but Zhou Lingling felt that this old man must have drunk too much spiritual spring water...
Fuguier said excitedly: "Master, I have a pill. After taking it, you will be able to understand what Dahuang and the others are saying."
Zhou Lingling: "Really? Are there any side effects?"
Fuguier patted his chest and assured: "Absolutely not!"
Zhou Lingling believed it: "Then why are you still talking nonsense? Take one!"
Fuguier: “…”
"Ok?"
Zhou Lingling: "Where are your pills?"
Fuguier stammered, "Master, I haven't practiced yet..."
I was so engrossed in reading the novel that I forgot that there is only the recipe for the elixir, but no medicine.
Zhou Lingling: “…” Get out of here!
After a while
They also had two fires burning on their side.
When they set out, two large wooden barrels with lids were tied to the back of each carriage, and they were filled with water.
What Dahuang defecated was bedding, pots and pans, and some food.
Without waiting for Chen to take action, Meixiang put her son on the ox cart and started moving the things she needed downstairs.
Tie Yuan took Sang Lin and a few others to be on guard. Among the dozen or so people, their injuries were slightly lighter and their strength was relatively stronger.
Han You led others to collect firewood, move pots and build a stove, and help Meixiang prepare to cook.
Zhou Lingling sat on the shaft of the cart and watched, and couldn't help but smile.
"You can tell they are all very happy."
Xiao Yan got off the carriage, stood next to Zhou Lingling, and watched the scene with her.
Zhou Lingling turned to look at him, "Returning to Northern Xinjiang might mean returning home for them!"
No matter how good the Southern Region is, that land is where their hearts lie.
Xiao Yan smiled faintly: "Yes, that is indeed their home."
"We will be able to meet up with the caravan tomorrow afternoon. They will have purchased supplies in the capital city. We won't be going into the city. If you have anything to buy, you can tell Feiyu."
She was about to meet up with the caravan, which meant she had to prepare the food.
Zhou Lingling knew what was going on, so she said, "Let's find a place tomorrow and have Brother Feiyu take me there."
"As for what to buy, the caravan has been traveling extensively for years, so they're probably more experienced. Just bring us some common medicinal herbs and cotton cloth!"
She was not worried about food and drink. The further north she went, the colder the weather would be, and things like colds were possible, so she had to prepare some medicines and clothes.
Xiao Yan looked at her and said, "Why should Fei Yu take you there? Can't I take you there myself?"
Zhou Lingling looked puzzled: "..."Are you also good at Qinggong?
Xiao Yan said calmly, "Slightly better."
Zhou Lingling: "...Excuse me, have you ever practiced mind reading?"
Xiao Yan took one last look at her and walked away.
Is it necessary to read the mind of a little girl like this whose thoughts are written all over her forehead?
Zhou Lingling jumped off the cart: "Hey? Don't leave! Can we share this technique..."
The other group of people observed for a while and saw that Zhou Lingling and the others had actually started to make a fire and cook. The expressions on their faces finally relaxed a lot.
A man said to the old woman sitting on a bundle, "Mom, this person must be passing by and wants to rest here for the night."
There is no village or shop nearby, and only this forest can provide some shelter from the wind, so it is normal to rest here.
The old lady had gray hair, but she looked very energetic, with bright eyes and neatly combed hair.
Hearing this, the old lady said: "Well, I see they have so many carriages, as well as women and children, I don't think they are those strong men.
"In that case, let's light the fire and do what we need to do!"
Following the command and taking action, the whole family, who had just been staring at Zhou Lingling and her family with tense faces, started to get busy again after hearing these words.
The man who had just spoken did not put down the hatchet in his hand. Instead, he walked up to the old lady, squatted down, and whispered:
"Mom, I don't think those people are good people."
Han You and the others were either missing limbs or had long scars on their faces, which looked a bit scary.
In the eyes of men, they are just like those bandits.
But the old lady said, "Boss, you're mistaken. These people... must be from a martial arts background. I just don't know where they're going..."
After thinking for a while, the old lady instructed her eldest son: "You should be alert at night and keep an eye on the movements over there. Once they leave, we will leave. Follow them from a distance and walk as far as you can."
The man nodded heavily, "Mom, don't worry, I won't sleep tonight."
