Yuchi and the others were quite reliable. They noticed the reaction of the people following the convoy before they even approached the village. They immediately reminded each other with their eyes, and they also looked at each other as they passed the village.
Although it is difficult for us to blend in as well as the other people in Zhuque, we should not be too abrupt and let others see that not only are you not a foreigner, but you also have some problems with not being a foreigner.
Gongsun quietly approached a refugee team of twenty or thirty people. Compared with other refugee teams, this team seemed more luxurious;
It was already very cold in Suzaku in November. Although it did not snow, the wind was strong and biting. The other refugee groups were either wrapped in thin and thick clothes picked up from nowhere, or they simply had no thick clothes.
They were walking huddled up in layers of thin clothes, but this team, all wearing thick cotton-padded jackets, looked neat and tidy.
Let’s talk about preparations. One or two carts in other teams are considered luxurious. This team has six large carts with a width of two meters. I don’t know what is loaded on them, but they are all fully loaded and covered with cloth. They pull one by one.
Push, it seems very heavy.
Let's talk about the complexion. Although they also looked like they had gone through the vicissitudes of hunger, their complexions were much better than those of the refugees who were really hungry and cold, at least rosy.
All this made Gongsun and others once wonder whether this group of refugees were just like them, just mixed in with the refugees.
One party wanted to inquire and the other sought refuge, so both parties walked at a certain distance but not too far along the way.
Those seeking asylum naturally want to be able to talk to and have some relationship with the other party. Qi Bao'er is not a hagua here. After seeing that the other party has that intention, he will intentionally or unintentionally reveal some information that may be possible;
For example, someone in the team suddenly fell ill, but they didn't have the medicine they were in urgent need of. The people at the rear took the opportunity to come up and ask, and then they happened to have it in their hands. It didn't matter, so they got involved.
Gradually, the two parties began to exchange things for things. The latter assumed that they would suffer some losses, and the front assumed that fellow travelers would help them if conditions allowed.
After getting in touch with each other, they naturally start chatting and talking nonsense, and everyone realizes that these refugees are not just like them, but that they are really capable people who can live a good life on the road to escape.
They are also from the Baal Country. Unlike Master Qianhua and others, they are people who escaped from a town in the easternmost part of the Baal Country. This means that they have to cross the Baal Country before they can reach the Suzaku Country;
These people all had the surname Lu and were from the same village. Originally, there were hundreds of people in the village fleeing together. Unfortunately, they encountered several battlegrounds on the road. People died one after another. In the end, only about 20 people were left in front of them.
This is natural, those who can survive are those with some ability.
Also because of their experiences along the way, they have become more united and their combat power has increased to a higher level.
Their team is currently led by the son of the former village chief, who is in his early forties and everyone calls him Uncle Lu.
When Uncle Lu saw Gongsun coming, he thought there was something going on ahead. The people in the front team would not come to them if nothing happened, so he hurriedly trotted over.
"Captain Gongsun, is there something going on ahead?"
Gongsun looked cautious and motioned for him to speak aside.
After the two of them were a certain distance away from the crowd, Gongsun whispered: "Did you see what happened in the village just now?"
Uncle Lu's face was speechless for a moment. In fact, they were all shocked when they saw it. Everything was more exaggerated than the dancing masters in their hometown. A group of people were as stunned as a demon, which made people panic.
Fortunately, they were lucky enough to meet the team in front of them. Even more fortunately, the young master was kind-hearted and did not drive them away. They followed behind and took a lot of advantage along the way, and they were always protected.
.
Uncle Lu and the others are not heartless people who only want to ask for things. They are grateful to each other, so once they get something when they stop to rest, they will choose the good ones and send some to the young master.
At the same time, they also understood how powerful Young Master and the others were. They seemed to be very familiar with Suzaku, the kind of people who knew the geographical location and where they would appear;
For Uncle Lu and others, the experience along the way can be said to be a narrow escape. Being able to reach this point is not only a bit capable, but also more cautious;
Therefore, they are paying attention to what is ahead and learning from each other along the way;
Take this time as an example, they were indeed frightened by the people in the village, but first they paid attention to the reactions of the people in Qibaoer's team, and saw that they all looked like it was a normal thing.
Everyone followed and passed by without squinting as if they hadn't seen anything.
But they were all frightened. Was it wrong for them to flee to the Suzaku Kingdom?
I was agitated in my heart, but I didn't dare to go forward to ask the young master. At this moment, Captain Gongsun took the initiative to raise this question. Uncle Lu quickly asked the doubts in his heart:
"Captain Gongsun, what's going on with those people? Why do they look like they're possessed by demons?"
I also wanted to ask if all the people in Zhuque were like this, but I was afraid that the young master and the others were Zhuque people, so it was not easy to ask the question, so I had to hide it for now.
Gongsun shook his head with a worried look on his face, "We, young master, have long known that the people in the Suzaku Kingdom are a little weird, but we haven't been to Suzaku for nearly two years, so we haven't really seen what they are like.
Weird method.”
These words have many meanings. First of all, the young master and others are not from Zhuque like them. Secondly, the young master and others have often come to Zhuque. Seeing the young master’s demeanor and the ability of the guards, I think that the young master is not who.
The children of the country's big families are officials.
But these are not important, at least they have nothing to do with them. What he is worried about is: "Captain Gongsun, in this situation, do you think Suzaku will still take in us refugees from other countries?"
They have no way out for a long time, there is no place for the people of Baal country. If Suzaku does not accept them, they will have no choice but to go back and follow Mang Tong to rebel.
But it is not so easy to rebel. The Suzaku Kingdom is a big country, with millions of troops there. The Mangtong army only has hundreds of thousands, and some of them are originally refugees from various places. It is not a big deal to say that they are just a mob.
But, how can I compete with the big Suzaku?
Gongsun's face didn't look good either. He moved closer to Uncle Lu and said in a lower voice: "Our master is ready to look forward. If the people are still like this, we can only go back to find Mang Tong."
Uncle Lu took a breath and blurted out: "San En, how can an army of only a few hundred thousand fight against an army of several million?"
Um??
Um.
When the person who should inquire was asked, Gongsun looked at him speechlessly, "What kind of person is our young master? How can he be ordered to do so by Mang Tong?!"
Then, he shook his sleeves and left as if he was angry.
However, this made Second Uncle Lu very uneasy, thinking that his words had offended Gongsun, and might even offend the young master. When he returned to his team, his face was a little pale.
However, he did not tell everyone that he might have offended the front team, but only told everyone that they might have to go back.
But this was scary enough, and the atmosphere in the team suddenly became depressed.
