God-given mother: The villain cub is super clingy

Chapter 103 Who led the refugees to Yejia Village?

Lin Yue knew that these cakes would not last for a few days. If they could find County Magistrate Han and get a job, they could still survive, but it was not a long-term solution. These people were still the vanguard of the refugees. If more and more people came later, neither the state capital nor the county town would be able to open the city gates to rescue them.

But looking at the skinny child, she felt really bad.

Silang saw Lin Yue's sadness.

She quietly put a handful of copper coins into the man's hand. Those were her private savings, and she gave them all to him. There was also a dime in the money, which should be enough for them to buy some dry food and set off as soon as possible.

The man opened his mouth wide, his whole body trembling. He covered his chest with his hands holding the silver and coins, knocked his head to the ground, and refused to get up for a long time.

"Hurry up and go! Go as far as you can, don't stay behind."

Lin Yue whispered a reminder as she helped him up.

There are more and more refugees, and the final situation will definitely not be good. If they want to survive, they must go as far south as possible.

That’s all I have to say. It all depends on their luck!

Finally, he helped his wife up, picked up the child, and walked forward with firm steps, faster and more steadily than when he came!

"Old Patriarch, it seems we have to go into the mountains early!"

The old patriarch nodded and said, "Yes, we have to leave early. Some of the nearby villages have already packed up and headed south!

Only a few people are left who are unwilling to leave.

"When the villagers heard they were going into the mountains, those who had been mentally prepared began to pack their things, while a few families cried and refused to leave. These were the result of the village chief's previous attempts to test them. If they didn't want to go, the old patriarch might not be willing to take them with them.

"You've seen what the refugees are like today. If you don't want to go into the mountains, then flee like them. There's still time to leave!"

The village chief was also very anxious because of them. He didn't know what the situation was in the mountains. He was very uncertain.

So he left after saying this! At this juncture, no one could care less!

Just as the villagers were packing up and preparing to stay in the village for another night before setting off the next day, the second group of refugees arrived.

This time is different from last time.

Because the patrol team's signal was to flee, the old patriarch led the villagers to run to the mountains from the back of the village before it got dark. Lin Yue and four men led the way in the front, Qin Shu and his family were in the middle, and there were a few trustworthy young people taking care of them at intervals. Finally, Old Man Ye and his family were the last to leave.

Only one person from each family in the patrol team was left behind to follow Qin Fang to resist the refugees, and the rest joined the large group entering the mountains.

Qin Fang brought more than 20 of the strongest young men in the village, each carrying bows and arrows on their backs and holding machetes in their hands. They stood in front of those people in a majestic manner, blocking their way into the village.

Anyone could see that these people were obviously not ordinary refugees, but more like desperate and starving refugees. They were not starving to the point of being skin and bones, nor did they have families with them. There were only a few women with numb eyes at the end of the crowd.

They were holding weapons, sticks, kitchen knives, machetes...

They are here to steal things.

"I heard that your village once hunted a tiger and caught a thief, and was rewarded by the county magistrate with a lot of food and silver. Your village is so wealthy, so consider it as a relief for us!"

The leading men showed their big yellow teeth in their mouths, with greedy and ferocious expressions on their faces. They knew the situation in Yejia Village very well.

"How do you know so much? Who sent you here? How despicable! You actually betrayed us!"

Ye Daniu was so angry that he almost cursed. The people who knew so much details must be from the nearby villagers. They deliberately led them to Yejia Village. They wanted to destroy Yejia Village!

Once these people enter the village, it is more than just a matter of stealing things!

Looking at their vicious and ferocious appearance, they must have killed someone!

Just as those people were about to move forward, Qin Fang took out the bow and arrow from his back and shot the man in front of him in the leg.

"Ah! Damn it! Do you really dare to kill someone in broad daylight?"

The man was ruthless enough. He pulled the arrow out of his leg with one jerk, and a stream of blood spurted out.

Qin Fang sneered, "Are we not going to fight back when you come in, kill people and steal food? What a joke! Are you really refugees? Where are you from? Why don't you go to Qingzhou City? Why come to this rural village?"

He wanted to buy time for everyone, so he deliberately got the other party to talk more.

Seeing that they were fully armed and the weapons in their hands were no joke, the other side knew that as long as they broke in, they would really dare to use ruthless force! They couldn't help but feel nervous and softened their attitude.

"We are refugees. Some of our family members starved to death, and some were killed by the rebels! If we had no other way to survive, we wouldn't come out to steal food. You still have food and family, but we have nothing! To survive, we can do anything!"

The man became more and more excited as he spoke, as if all this was caused by the people of Yejia Village!

"We can't get into Qingzhou City anymore. There's an endless stream of refugees outside the city, and there are only a few porridge stalls. How can there be enough food? Haven't you seen what starving people won't eat?"

"We're all common people. You can't rob us just because you're in trouble! If you have the guts, go ahead and take on the government! Besides, it's spring now, and the wild vegetables on the roadside are sprouting. If you work harder, you won't starve to death."

"Wild vegetables? Brother, you haven't seen it. Outside Qingzhou City, if there's even a leaf left, I'll give you my head! Wild vegetables! The bark has been stripped off!"

"His old man died from eating Guanyin soil!"

The man pointed at a silent man next to him. When he said this, the man's eyes became even redder! It seemed that what they said was true. If they hadn't been forced to this point, no one would become like this.

"Then you can't do such evil things! Your family has clearly suffered misfortune, and you want us to be destroyed like you, only then will you be satisfied?"

"The government increased revenue, and they took all the food! If we had surplus food, why would they just stand by and watch us die?"

The man and his accomplice looked at each other and knew that the people from Yejia Village were not lying. If they had not been encouraged to come here because of the reward from the county magistrate, they would not have deliberately run to this mountain valley!

We are all common people, so how could we not know who is rich and who is poor?

Qin Fang's ears twitched, and he exchanged a glance with Qin Qi. It was Qin Shu who had sent them a signal. It seemed that the villagers had already gone into the mountains. Even if they started fighting, they wouldn't have any scruples! If they couldn't win, they would just run to the mountains!

Erwang yelled, "Don't go any further! If you do, I'll shoot you!"

It turned out that while they were talking, those people were also approaching them quietly! After being discovered by Erwang, they slowly stopped.

The two sides just stood there in a standoff, neither willing to give in.
