Outside Xiamen City, more than ten miles away from the city, a slender black shadow was slowly moving along the official road towards Xiamen City.

After getting closer, I realized that this slender black shadow was nothing else, but people with numb and ragged clothes.

Each of them was carrying their luggage to a greater or lesser extent, and was trekking hard.

Although it usually doesn’t snow in Xiamen, during this winter, cold winds blow by these thin clothes still make the people with thin clothes shudder.

The officers wearing soapy clothes were walking next to these people. Although the spirit of these officers was much better than those with a slutty face, they still couldn't hide their dusty faces. It was obvious that they had also traveled a long distance.

A girl about eight or nine years old, pale and thin, snuggled up to her mother, raised her head and said to her mother, "Mom...I'm hungry!"

The old and thin mother next to her stretched out her blue veins and stroked her daughter's little head with calluses, enduring the sadness and comforting her: "Be good, Da Ya... we will have something to eat when we get to the city."

"Go away... Go away... It's cold and cold. Are you planning to celebrate the New Year here?"

The officers shouted and scolded each other next to him.

The mother accompanied the smile and said to the servant: "This official, we mother and I haven't eaten for a day. Can you express our compassion and give us some food? We will thank you for your great kindness for the rest of our lives."

"I'm gonna..."

The officer with a horse face was furious, raised the whip in his hand and sucked it to the woman's back.

Only with a "pop" sound, a big hole appeared in the woman's already worn clothes, revealing her skinny back.

"Be your mother's dream of spring and autumn, I don't have enough food to eat. I really want to share it with you. Do I drink the northwest wind?

I have been in trouble for eight lifetimes when I catch this mission and I want to send you poor people here.

Even if you have arrived here, I still have to go back. Do you know? Damn, I don’t know if the officials will give more rewards after arriving in Xiamen?"

Although the woman who was whipped with a whip turned pale due to the pain, she did not dare to shout out due to the tyranny of the yamen runner. She just lowered her head without saying a word with red eyes.

On the contrary, her daughter glared at the yamen runner and pouted and said loudly: "Why did you hit my mother? My mother did nothing wrong, why did you hit her?"

Facing the girl's questioning, the horse-faced yamen runner was so upset that he kicked her into a fight, and scolded her: "Little bastard, I'll beat you to death!"

The girl was kicked to the ground and lay on the ground and couldn't get up for a while, and she burst into tears.

Seeing this, her mother hurried over and hugged her daughter in her arms. Looking at her crying daughter, thinking of her relatives who died halfway through, her tears finally shed. The mother and her mother sat on the side of the road and hugged her head and cried bitterly.

Seeing this, the people who were traveling with them shook their heads and sighed, but now they are unable to protect themselves, but they cannot help at all.

Perhaps the mother and daughter looked too miserable, and another servant next to her advised: "Boss of the Ma family, everyone is from the villagers, don't go too far."

"I'm too much?"

The horse-faced man snorted coldly: "If it weren't for these poor people, I'm still baking fire at home and drinking wine, so the cold wind that has been blowing for more than two months now."

Speaking of this, he looked at the mother and daughter who were sitting on the side of the road crying non-stop. He was upset and walked to the two of them with a whip and shouted, "Don't cry, howling, do you know if you cry again or not, I will send you to see your devil husband and mother-in-law?"

The officer's words did not stop the mother and daughter's crying. Perhaps the desire for life had been lost. The mother and daughter's crying not only did not weaken but became louder.

Seeing that the mother and daughter, who were as weak as ants in her eyes, dared to go against her words, the horse-faced man couldn't help feeling a big loss of face. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he walked over with his hands and strode towards them. The whip in his hand slashed at them for a moment, and the crying and crying sounded.

The mother and daughter, who were already very weak, could not withstand this thrash? After more than a dozen whips, the mother and daughter were already dying, but the horse-faced servant was still stubborn and continued to beat them.

Seeing this, the people next to them wanted to ask for love, but were afraid of the tyranny of different faces of horses. For a moment, they stood timidly on the spot and dared not dissuade them.

In the end, a man couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward and said, "Enough, Boss Ma, if you continue to fight, you will be beaten to death."

The horse-faced man spitted thick phlegm at the mother and daughter, and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid of a ball, but I'm just a stinky girl who kills men and mother-in-law. If she dies, she will die. I don't believe this evil. I must beat them to death today."

After saying that, he raised his whip again and continued to whip.

"Pudding lump..."

At this time, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded from the opposite side.

The horse-faced servant who was about to continue to whip the mother and daughter and the crowd looked in the direction where the sound came like a reflex.

I saw a burst of smoke rising in front of me, accompanied by the dust flying, and a team of cavalry began to appear in front of everyone.

When the cavalry suddenly appeared, the faces of the officers changed. Others didn't know, but they knew very well that once the cavalry in the brigade ran, anyone or thing standing in front of them would be crushed into powder. Now the official road has long been filled with these people. If they were rushed by the cavalry, the casualties would be severe.

But what they were worried about did not happen. The cavalry rushed to them and quickly slowed down, and then stopped in front of them.

After the cavalry stopped, everyone could see clearly what these people looked like.

I saw that the cavalry were all tall, each wearing iron armor, each with a musket on his back, a sabre on his waist, and a red cloak on his back.

They rode on horses one by one, with a cold face, looking at the people in front of them, without any surprise or confusion in their eyes, as if they were looking at a dead object.

Although these cavalry did not say a word, the yamen runners and the people in front of them felt extremely panic and yamen runners, and some timid children even cried out.

Even those who don’t know how to do things know that the group of about a hundred people in front of them are cavalry among the Ming cavalry and elite among the elite.

At this time, a cavalry leader asked loudly: "Are you immigrants sent from the Shanxi government?"

Seeing these cavalry finally asked questions, a different person in the leader quickly came out and said with a smile: "When you say this official, Xiaoren and others are the servants who escorted Shanxi immigrants. Now they are going to the city to hand in the service?"

"oh……"
