She picked up the young prime minister while fleeing famine

Of course, the one who got into trouble was Banxia and her group.

They were just a few children, but many people on the road had their eyes on them. However, everyone was busy on their way and didn't make a move yet.

Now that they had finally rested and the children were cooking porridge, it was clear they had food on hand, so the first group of people quickly came looking for them.

They were several men with fierce expressions. Despite the year's circumstances, these men didn't look thin, clearly indicating they had plenty of food.

At this moment, their eyes were not on Banxia and the others' food, but rather on the people staring at them with a greedy look on their faces.

Their eyes looked at them as if they were looking at several roast chickens, not a few children.

Banxia immediately understood that these men, like the previous gang of thieves, were cannibals.

Before anyone could get close, Banxia pulled a knife out of her basket and handed one to Lianchengmo as well.

As for the younger ones, forget it. What if they hurt themselves by giving them knives?

"You guys stay in the back and don't move. Changshan, watch over your younger brothers and sisters." Banxia pushed the children together and instructed the eldest, Changshan.

"Big sister, I know." Changshan's voice trembled slightly, but she still firmly protected her younger siblings behind her, her little hands tightly gripping theirs.

Meanwhile, Lian Chengmo pointed his sword at the five men who were surrounding them, and shielded Banxia behind him.

"What do you want to do?" Lian Chengmo's voice was like ice, extremely cold.

"Kid, I advise you to be smart and hand over your younger brothers and sisters, and I might consider sparing your life." The leader held an axe and pointed it at Lian Chengmo.

However, he was somewhat envious of the large knife in Lian Chengmo's hand. He thought that if he could snatch that knife later, it would be more convenient to rob people in the future.

"And the little girl behind you, she looks so fair and tender, she must be delicious too."

"That's right, kid. Don't be ungrateful. Hand over your younger brother and sister and we might spare your life. Otherwise, we'll stew you up too."

"Boss, why waste words with this brat? I think we should just kill them all, then we won't have to worry about food when we get to Huayang Prefecture."

The four men behind that man were talking amongst themselves, seemingly already considering Banxia and her companions as theirs for the taking.

Seeing that Lian Chengmo was slow to express his opinion, the last one didn't spare him either, and his words became more and more outrageous.

The five men were incredibly arrogant, completely disregarding the two children with knives.

In their eyes, a nine-year-old girl could be pinned down with one hand, and if it weren't for the fear that a ten-year-old boy might hurt them, they wouldn't bother arguing with him.

As a result, the little girl they looked down on started fighting right away.

"Lian Chengmo, keep an eye on the children." Banxia whispered in Lian Chengmo's ear, and then rushed out the next moment.

The five men opposite were laughing and weren't on guard at all. As a result, Banxia rushed over and chopped down the axe of the leader with one stroke.

That's right, it's a chop, the kind that cuts off the hand as well.

A scream startled everyone, including the five people who had come to cause trouble, as well as other refugees who were watching and hoping to get something for nothing.

Before anyone could react, Banxia swiftly struck twice more, injuring two people.

By the time the two finally realized what was happening, Banxia quickly distanced herself from the other person and led them in another direction.

When the other party swung a hoe at her, Banxia raised her knife to block it. She was so strong that she withstood the attack of an adult man.

The longsword, its blade dulled, struck the hoe with a harsh sound, and the two remained locked in a stalemate.

"Damn it, I'll kill you." While his companion was holding Banxia back, the last man swung a butcher knife straight at Banxia's neck.

"what!"

A scream rang out from the man holding the butcher knife.

He stared in disbelief at the knife stuck in his wrist, then looked up at Lian Chengmo, who had somehow appeared before him.

How could Lian Chengmo just stand by and watch Banxia face so many people alone?

After Banxia rushed out, he only had time to tell Lian Chengyu before chasing after him.

He was just a little slow, and seeing that everyone had been led away by Qi Banxia, ​​he followed behind, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

only......

Lian Chengmo looked at the stuck knife. He seemed to lack the strength to cut off the man's hand like Qi Banxia had.

"Kick him!" Banxia shouted to Lian Chengmo when she saw what was happening next to her.

Before he could finish speaking, the man was kicked away by Lian Chengmo.

The two of them were on the same page.

Then, Lian Chengmo looked intently at the man confronting Banxia and slashed at him with his knife.

The man was so frightened that he backed away repeatedly.

"Miss Banxia, ​​are you alright?" Lian Chengmo walked up to Banxia and asked.

Banxia turned to look at Lian Chengmo, about to say that she was fine, but before she could finish speaking, her pupils contracted and she had already run out.

Banxia shouted as she ran.

"Lian Chengmo, slingshot."

It turned out that the two people who had been injured by Banxia had taken the opportunity to surround the children.

Their injuries were mainly to their arms and legs, not too serious. Seeing that the two tough older kids had been distracted, they decided to take the opportunity to tie up the younger ones.

With a few smaller ones in hand, why worry about the two bigger ones not obeying?

At this moment, even if Banxia ran back with all her might, she was still more than ten steps away, while Lian Chengmo had just taken out his slingshot from his pocket.

The other person was already within two steps of the children, and the knife in his hand was about to strike, splattering blood on the spot.

Some of the other refugees fleeing the famine around them couldn't bear it and silently turned away, while others showed excited expressions with expectant eyes.

However, at that critical moment, Qi Changshan picked up a pot of boiling hot porridge in front of him and splashed it out.

Meanwhile, Lian Chengyu was protecting Qi Juanbai and Lian Chengshuang as they quickly retreated towards Yaoli Village.

"what!"

"what!"

Two screams followed by the sound of metal hitting the ground, leaving only two men jumping up and down in agony.

Qi Banxia breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this, but did not stop running forward at all.

"Damn it, I'm going to kill you bastards today! You dare to draw your knives on me? I... Ah!" The leader finally stood up in pain and started cursing, trying to get closer to Qi Changshan.

Before he could take two steps, a pebble suddenly flew into his wide-open mouth.

Instantly, the leader's face contorted, and he let out a scream.

When he spat out a mouthful of blood, two front teeth were clearly visible in his palm.

"Damn it, you... ah!"

Lian Chengmo looked coldly at the leader, his slingshot steadily aimed at him, clearly indicating that if he spoke again, he would make him crawl on the ground.

Qi Banxia ran past those people like a gust of wind, not even giving them a glance, and went straight to her second brother.

Holding his younger brother in his arms, he anxiously checked his hands and found that they were indeed red from the heat.
