Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

The three of them had a satisfying meal and were not in a hurry to continue their journey. After putting out the fire, they found a shady place and rested for a while leaning against a big tree.

Seeing that it was past noon, the three of them got up and continued on their journey.

At You Xian's strong request, he did not return to the space immediately this time, but instead traveled through the mountains and forests with the two of them.

When he was tired, Leng Youran and Li Tianze carried him and flew. They stopped and walked along the way. It took the three of them two days to reach the place where the Maolu tribe originally lived.

Leng Youran and You Xian were both stunned when they saw Zhuangzi in front of them.

Li Tianze was also shocked.

"It wasn't like this last time. I guess it's the Yao people coming again." The village in front of him was in a mess, and the things that the people here didn't take away were thrown everywhere.

The roof, which was originally made of hay, has now been burned to ashes.

If the wall had not been built of mud, they would have seen debris all over the ground.

"The Yao people are really hungry."

While Leng Youran's eyes fell on the ruined village, his gaze remained on the rice fields surrounding the village.

Looking at the rice fields that had been completely destroyed, I felt a little angry.

Ever since she lived in the apocalypse, she has become especially appreciative of food.

It doesn’t matter how much you eat, but you can’t waste it.

Especially the rice in front of me had just begun to grow ears of rice, but the heads of the ears had been cut cleanly.

Because of her words, Li Tianze also saw the fertile land that had been ruined beyond recognition.

A hint of annoyance flashed across his face.

Before leaving, Chief Mao and his men said that they would come here early to harvest the rice when it was almost ripe. Now, the rice has been wasted before it can even mature.

I never thought that the Yao people could be so cruel and cruel that they would even destroy good farmland.

"It seems that the people who are in charge of the Yao people now are really inhumane! They probably saw that all the people in thatched cottage were gone, and their plans were interrupted, so they were angry and did such a thing." You Xian also felt ashamed of the Yao people's behavior.

So good food is wasted like this.

"By the way, Tianze, where is the halfway point on the mountain that you mentioned before? Let's go and see if we have found anything there." She had just checked and found that the cut ends of the rice were still very fresh. It seemed that they were not made when they burned down the village.

The interface is so new that they must have left not long ago. They took so much food with them that they might have left traces.

"I'll take you there."

You Xian was still carried over by the two of them.

Leng Youran actually didn't want to treat his master like this, because his master didn't want to return to the space.

Although his body is not so weak now, it still consumes some energy for him to climb halfway up the mountain. Leng Youran naturally does not want to let his master suffer.

As for You Xian, as long as he is not allowed to return to the space frame, then so be it! Anyway, the two of them are people who know what is going on.

When the three men landed halfway up the mountain, they saw sacks of rice thrown there.

It looks like it was thrown away on purpose, scattered all over the place.

"These beasts, there's no need to waste all the food." You Xian looked at the sacks scattered on the ground, with the green ears of grain sticking out from the mouth of the sacks, and for the first time he felt the urge to curse.

The reason is that after arriving in the north, I saw that the people there were so thin due to lack of food and clothing.

So now he has a deep hatred for people who waste food.

Leng Youran was the same, but it was not obvious on her face.

He focused on releasing his mental power and tried to use it to penetrate the white fog in front of him to see what was going on inside.

When Li Tianze saw her close her eyes, he knew that she was sensing, so he slowed down his search.

After searching around, the result was the same as last time. The footsteps suddenly disappeared when they reached here, as if they had never appeared.

Leng Youran also frowned and opened his eyes at this time.

"How is it?" You Xian and Li Tianze asked at the same time.

"I can't see. There's more fog behind the white fog. If this isn't a trick they're using to deceive people, then they must have some special method. Otherwise, it's pitch dark inside, and those people wouldn't be able to find their way back."

She was a little annoyed now. If she had known they were on the road, she would not have wasted time. Then maybe she could have met people who were going to harvest rice.

If she encounters them, even if those people who tracked her here disappear, she should be able to catch up with them quietly according to her ability.

It wouldn't be as awkward as it is now.

"Ran'er, come over here and take a look." You Xian's voice came from their left.

The two looked at You Xian who was squatting not far away. He was picking something on the ground.

Leng Youran and Li Tianze moved closer to him and squatted down.

Look in the direction he is pointing.

Leng Youran picked up something on the ground out of curiosity.

"String?" Leng Youran said as she pulled the string she was holding hard.

"Hiss..." The thread didn't break, but her hand was cut by the thin thread.

She was not sad about the injury on her hand, but asked in surprise: "Master, this is not an ordinary thread?"

You Xian couldn't bear to look at his foolish apprentice and said angrily, "I asked you to come over and take a look. Who told you to be so reckless? And you even pulled it with your hands. If it was just an ordinary string, would I have called you over?"

Leng Youran shrugged and stuck out his tongue playfully, "Hey, hey, I'm just curious, aren't I?"

"Hmph, you're never doing anything right. If this line is poisonous, I'll see what you're going to do. And you, why don't you do something so dangerous as this kid?"

Li Tianze was accused without reason...

"Well, Master, it's my fault."

"Hmph, I think Ran'er made the wrong choice by choosing you. You don't want to take good care of her with her erratic personality. Are you planning to let us old guys handle all these things in the future?"

Leng Youran watched Li Tianze being lectured, and laughed in his heart.

Li Tianze.....

Does he dare to intervene?

He glanced at Leng Youran who was watching the show on the side and shook his head helplessly, "Master, I'll remember this. Next time, I will definitely not let Youyou do these rough jobs."

You Xian didn't really want to blame him, but he couldn't bear to criticize his little disciple, so he diverted his anger.

"Okay, go down and take a look. This is golden silk. Although it looks very thin, it is very tough. The sudden disappearance of those people may have something to do with this."

Li Tianze quickly agreed, took the golden silk from Leng Youran's hand, and wanted to walk inside along the direction of the thread.

"Wait." Leng Youran called him at the right time, closed his eyes and searched the space with his consciousness.

Soon, a piece of leather-like object appeared in her hand.
