Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

The two men looked disheveled and had no sharp weapons on them.

"Please answer truthfully."

The young man moved the middle-aged man with his hand.

The middle-aged man glanced at him, signaling him to be patient, and then took a few steps towards the middle.

Wen Shu saw that the middle-aged man was only a few steps away from her. His body was heaving violently, and he was standing two steps away from her, dragging his injured leg.

The middle-aged man stood still, clasped his hands together and said, "Tan Junwei, it is not my intention to disturb the girl's family. I ask the girl and all the fellow villagers to forgive me."

"Yes, yes, yes," the young man followed closely behind the middle-aged man. After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the young man hurriedly agreed.

"Brother Tan and I just didn't want to go in and out, so we broke away from them."

As he spoke, the young man peeked over the middle-aged man's shoulder to see the girl's reaction.

This little action did not escape Wenshu's notice.

Wen Shu's eyes swept across the middle-aged man's broken legs and feet. His legs and feet were bare, and the scars on them were clearly visible.

The legs and feet were not missing, but there was a bulge at the middle-aged man's ankle for some reason, which was why the right leg was shorter than the left leg.

However, she did not underestimate the middle-aged man.

Wen Shu nodded slightly, "My dear warrior, please answer my question.

Where are you from?

Where are you going next?

How many of you are there?

After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Since I can stop you here, you should also be able to imagine that your companions will not be able to escape from my encirclement.

If you have other ideas, I advise you to give up this idea."

As he spoke, rhythmic chirping sounds were heard in the woods.

Apparently, the middle-aged man who walked outside all year round also heard this regular and rhythmic chirping sound that sounded like a bird. Although he did not understand the meaning, he knew that it was important for their group of people.

Obviously not a good thing.

He had other thoughts when he left the team. He did not agree with their actions, could not influence their thoughts, and did not want to offend them.

However, the middle-aged man thought about what the girl said and since he couldn't hide it anymore, he didn't hide it anymore. "Hey, our group of people are actually not very vicious people.

A few years ago, there was a great famine, and the Di people took the opportunity to set up their own tribe. Wherever they passed by in the vicinity of Yizhou, the homes of the common people were looted, leaving no one spared.

Even worse, some people resorted to brutal killings to protect their food supplies."

Wen Shu interrupted and sneered, "What does this have to do with you? You guys are not kind and straightforward people.

If I guess correctly, are you planning to wipe out our village?"

When Tan Junwei heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He thought that seeing that the leader was a girl, he would feel soft-hearted and be more easy to talk to.

He was still thinking of fooling them, hoping that the girl would soften her heart and let them go, and they would take the opportunity to leave this place of trouble.

The woman's voice came again coldly, "If you want to say it, say it. If you don't want to say it, I have my own way."

After saying that, Wen Shu waved behind her and said, "Come here!"

"In Girl"

Several warriors were standing by, ready to take orders at any time.

Wen Shu shouted, looking eager to try it out towards Tan Junwei and the other man.

"Since they don't want to talk, let's tie them up now!

They are either disabled or weak. If they surrender obediently, there is no other way but to tie them up and take them back.

We are not tyrannical people, but..."

Having said this, I don’t know if it was said to Tan Junwei and the others, but he said in an unquestionable tone, “But if they don’t resist, we will attack you and deal with them ourselves.

If they are just bait, trying to lure other companions to ambush you, there is no need to hesitate, just remove their hands and feet.

I don’t need to teach you these things!”

"Yes, girl, don't worry, this little thing won't be difficult for us, not to mention that we have brothers behind us to support us."

After a long time without giving any definite answer and being hesitant, Wen Shu didn't want to waste any more time. These two people posed no threat to them at all.

It would be better if they were willing to reveal the details of that group of people. They could save some effort and get twice the result with half the effort. But if they are not willing to say more.

She was also unwilling to spend some time and waste it here.

After giving his orders to his men, he almost turned around and left...

Tan Junwei watched as the girl left three people to guard them and left so swiftly.

I panicked, "Girl, don't worry.

Although I was with them, I did not agree with their opinions. I was forced to go with them in order to survive.

I'm not a bad person, I'm just trying to survive.

I saw they wanted to go to this village, I tried to persuade them but failed, but I didn’t want to join them, so I left.”

Tan Junwei didn't know what he was thinking. He just made a decision without any reason. If he didn't seize this opportunity now, even if he escaped by luck this time, his life would be like this.

The young man was already panicked when he heard Wen Shu's instructions to the people around her, and immediately responded.

"Girl, we didn't lie to you. We are not vicious people..."

Hearing this, Wen Shu paused and frowned, saying, "I don't have time to listen to you now. If you want to tell me what I asked just now, then tell me. If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you."

"Speak, let's talk..." The young man saw the middle-aged man's anxiety and spoke first.

He just lacks in fighting power, but he is quite smart.

"Let me do it, let me tell you..." Tan Junwei didn't give the young man a chance to speak and spoke first.

"Among that group, except for the dozen or so people leading them who are extremely evil, the rest are ordinary people who had no choice but to join them in order to survive..."

Wenshu narrowed her eyes, there is hope!

This is much better than her two eyes.

Turning around and looking at the middle-aged man, he continued to wait for his words.

"The leader's surname is Li. I know his specific name. He has always only allowed us to call him Boss or Chief Li.

But according to my estimation, this person may be a member of the Di tribe, and the dozen or so people around him who loyally protect him should have come out with them.

As for why he wandered among the people and didn't return to Chengdu, I don't know.

Over the years, he has been hiding from soldiers and gangsters, and by some strange coincidence, he ended up hiding here a few months ago."

"How many of you are there in total?" Wen Shu interrupted again.

"Including us, there are only more than 60 people," Tan Junwei replied.

Wen Shu nodded to the middle-aged man's words, not knowing how much she believed them. After getting some important information, she had no intention of listening any further.

Pointing to the guards around the middle-aged man, he said, "Let's go up and join them first. You tie their hands and take them back to the tribe to keep watch.

We’ll deal with it when we get back.”

After saying that, he called the people around him and went up the hillside.
