A massive famine! The whole family travels through time together, and with their spatial abilities,

"Are these constables heartless? How could they torture these prisoners like this!"

While sitting in the carriage, Old Lady Su heard the cries behind her and couldn't help but lift the curtain to look back.

Seeing the yamen runners deliberately torturing prisoners is painful to watch, let alone imagine how much suffering the victims must have endured.

Su Yunhai rode ahead on his horse. After hearing his mother's words, he said coldly, "These yamen runners probably saw that these prisoners had a lot of good stuff, so they deliberately tortured them in order to get their tribute."

"They're a bunch of heartless beasts!"

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Su felt that her second son made sense. She couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she immediately lowered the carriage curtain to avoid seeing the scene.

But those painful cries could not be stopped, and they rang in my ears.

Knowing that his mother was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to see such a scene, Su Yunhai immediately ordered the team to speed up their journey.

He roughly estimated the speed at which the exile caravan was traveling.

Based on their pace, they could probably only walk a dozen or so miles in this afternoon.

After following the estimated route, Su Yunhai could not find a suitable inn or post station nearby.

It is unknown whether the exile procession will stop nearby.

He led the team forward for another two miles until they finally saw a slightly wider section of road, where they set up camp.

Su Yunhai specially bought a lot of high-quality tents in Beijing, and they were all large sizes, each capable of accommodating twenty or thirty people.

The tent components alone filled two trucks.

Su Yunhai instructed each family to send someone to learn how to set up the team, and those who didn't know how should be guided by their bodyguards.

Not long after.

Four tents, one large and one small, were set up on the open ground beside the official road.

One bodyguard was shared by the male members of the Su and Shen families, and one female member was shared by the six elders of the two families.

After the sleeping arrangements were made, the women in the family immediately began preparing meals for nearly a hundred people.

The Su and Shen families have been fleeing famine for nearly a month.

Everyone has already trained.

Today, we only traveled less than 30 li in total, and we were able to take turns resting in the carriage, so almost no one felt tired.

Shen Shuli, along with her second uncle Shen Yuebai and her three older brothers Su Pingan, Shen Ziqian, and Shen Zihao, went to the mountains for intensive training.

"Ah Li, look, why are there so many footprints here?"

After receiving some guidance from Shen Shuli, the four of them each found an open space to practice their skills.

Shen Yuebai set her sights on an open space, preparing to practice her skills, when she suddenly noticed that it was covered with fresh footprints, and immediately became wary.

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuli and the other three all looked over curiously.

“They are indeed fresh footprints,” Shen Ziqian said, squinting slightly.

Shen Shuli walked to the footprints and looked down from the toes.

The location where they were stationed was clearly visible.

“These people were just standing here spying on us,” Shen Shuli confirmed.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuebai and the other three's expressions changed drastically.

They all turned around at the same time to look at the hillside behind them, hoping to find the person hiding in the mountains.

pity.

They can't see anything.

"Second Uncle, go down and tell my father and Xuan Guang to increase their vigilance."

"Brother Ziqian, the three of you continue practicing here. Be sure to pay close attention to your surroundings. If you notice anything unusual, immediately alert everyone."

"Okay, so what are you going to do?" Shen Yuebai asked Shen Shuli with concern.

Shen Shuli smiled and explained, "I plan to go around to the mountain and look for them. I need to find out who is hiding here and whether they are specifically watching our team or have other purposes. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."

"Then be careful. If you encounter something impossible, don't be reckless. Come back and find us so we can figure something out together."

"Okay, Uncle, I'll be going now."

Shen Shuli pretended not to know anything and deliberately walked around on the mountain, picking wild vegetables and herbs from time to time.

Unbeknownst to her, Shen Shuli had already left the spot she had just been in.

She had just determined the direction and was preparing to sneak in to look for those people when she suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps stepping on dry grass behind her.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there were actually three people.

Among the three, there was a martial arts master with internal energy. His breathing style was clearly different from the other two, making him easy to identify.

Shen Shuli remained calm and continued searching around, pretending that she knew nothing.

'It seems those people knew we had a problem and were prepared, otherwise they wouldn't have sent people to secretly follow us.'

Shen Shuli couldn't help but worry about the people in the team, wondering how things were going on the other side.

Fortunately, she was very cautious and didn't collect much. She stuffed it all into her pockets and didn't use it along the way.

Otherwise, she might have already revealed her most important trump card.

Noticing that the three people were getting closer and closer behind her, Shen Shuli pretended to walk a short distance in another direction before stopping, her body just barely hidden by a large tree.

Shen Shuli immediately took out a silenced pistol from her spatial storage, turned her head sharply, and fired quickly at the expert's location.

The three people behind them never expected that this little girl would not only discover them, but also devise a plan to fight back.

Especially for experts with internal strength, he was only one zhang away from Shen Shuli.

They were so close that he had no idea when the woman in front of him had discovered them.

The two sides were too close; even if he sensed the danger, his body simply didn't have time to react.

The bullet struck him squarely in the forehead, killing him instantly.

The other two were even more surprised.

When they came to their senses, they saw their companion lying on the ground with a shocking wound on his forehead.

Shen Shuli fired again, instantly killing one person.

The last person finally realized what was happening and immediately turned and ran away in fright.

"boom!"

The man was hit in the thigh and slammed to the ground.

Because it was a hillside, my body rolled down the slope for a long distance before stopping.

Shen Shuli approached the person unhurriedly.

The man groaned in pain as he watched the short Shen Shuli approach him step by step, as if he were looking at a terrifying demon.

"You, don't come here!"

Shen Shuli looked down at the man and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you? Why are you here? Why are you following me? What is your purpose?"

The man was sweating profusely from the pain, but he couldn't and dared not speak of these issues. He could only avoid the other person's gaze, gritting his teeth and enduring the struggle.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Shuli raised her gun and threatened, "It seems you want to die now."

When the man realized she was really going to kill him, he immediately begged for mercy, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll talk! I'll talk!"

Shen Shuli didn't move, waiting for him to speak.

“We are the Third Prince’s men. He sent us to ambush and kill you, and to take care of the Xie family as well.”

Shen Shuli's face remained calm, but her emotions had clearly changed.

"How many of you came? Where are you all hiding?"

“We have thirty men, plus five Imperial Guards. You've already killed one of them, and the rest are hiding in the mountains behind your camp. We'll make our move later tonight…”
