The dark sky seems to be unbearable and can be suppressed at any time, which is very depressing.
The two families walked towards the so-called refugee area.
Qingyu's two dark and translucent eyes moved from time to time. Suddenly, her eyes fell on a family of three on the roadside.
Black and tattered bamboo mats were built into a triangular shed. The space of the shed was very small, only enough to spread a sheet of cotton wool. There was a woman sitting at the entrance of the shed. Her messy hair was even more messy by the wind, which made the woman restless.
Use your dry hands to brush the hair that is blocking your face.
The woman held a child in her arms, and the child was wrapped in a small quilt with leaking cotton. The woman lowered her head and moved her mouth, as if she was talking to the child.
Her rotten cuffs exposed her dirty and skinny wrists, which were tightly holding the child in her arms. Qingyu looked at the woman, and she seemed to be crying.
The woman kicked the sleeping man next to her with her bare black feet. Qingyu looked over and saw that the man was also barefoot and his feet were black and ugly. But the man just turned over. Qingyu looked at the man who was hiding in the dark.
From the figure in the shed, she could clearly see the man's protruding hip bones, which were as sharp as knives.
Qingyu suddenly stopped, because Wenya Zhufeng and others who were walking in front stopped. She looked back and looked forward, and saw a dozen men with sinister faces coming towards them.
The eyes of these people either fell on the children of Qingyu or the backpacks of the adults of Zhufeng Wenya, but no matter where they looked, their eyes were full of naked greed.
Qingyu noticed that these people were wearing clothes and shoes, but it could be seen from the several layers of clothes that these clothes definitely did not belong to these people.
Perhaps she was looking too intently and caught the attention of the leader. The man grinned and whistled, "Baby, if you look again, I'll eat you."
Qingyu continued to look at him expressionlessly. She knew that this was not a joke or a threat.
When Mrs. Tong heard this, her face turned pale instantly. She hugged the second and third babies on the left and right. Zhao Qian also pulled the eldest baby into his arms. The couple stared at the speaker with hatred and fierceness.
The three children were so frightened that they pressed their faces into their parents' arms.
Seeing their appearance, the leaders of the group burst out laughing and seemed very proud. They quickly passed by Qingyu and the others. Qingyu heard that one of them was unabashedly happy: "Brother, there is a newcomer again."
coming."
The man who was called eldest brother said in a sinister tone: "First deal with this bitch, then let the brothers greet them properly later."
Qingyu was about to look back when she heard a woman's scream not far behind her. Both families couldn't help but look back.
It was the woman just now, who was staring in horror at the dozen or so men coming towards her. The woman hugged the child tightly in her arms and ran away while crying: "Please, let me go."
For me, this child is dead, please let us go."
The leader laughed ferociously, "It's not a good idea to die. Anyway, you can get rid of the maggots by burying him. Why not let him accumulate some good deeds so that he can have a good pregnancy in the next life."
Qingyu's heart trembled, these filthy beasts were so vicious.
Seeing that the woman was about to be overtaken, Wen Ya picked up a few stones on the ground and threw them while chasing her. She hit each one accurately, and the five eggs-sized stones in her hand accurately hit five people. They were so painful that they all turned around.
He yelled, "Who the hell is beating me? Come out."
Wen Ya sneered coldly, "Just fucking beat you, whatever." Then she bent down to pick up stones and hit the other seven people. In a moment, seven more screams came from the ground.
The twelve men were all restrained by Wen Ya. They temporarily let go of the woman, who took the opportunity to run away. Qingyu saw her running up the mountain, maybe he wanted to find a place to bury the child secretly.
Qingyu called "Aniang" and signaled her not to get entangled with these people. From what she said before, it seemed that this group of people was organized and there should be a large number of them.
Wen Ya snorted unwillingly, threw away the stones in her hand and returned to Qing Yu and others, her tone was quite resentful, "It's not human's thing. If this happened before, I would have ripped off their muscles."
Qingyu advised: "There are still many of them. Let's not cause trouble at this time. Let's go to the front to see the situation."
Zhufeng also persuaded in a low voice. Hongtao held Qingyu's arm and was a little worried, "These people are all very vicious and evil people. They are not afraid of death. They have countless lives on their hands and are difficult to deal with."
Shi'an walked to the other side of Qingyu and took Qingyu's little hand, "Don't worry, we specialize in punishing the most vicious and evil people."
Zhao Qian and Tong Shi pulled their three children and followed Zhufeng Wenya closely. The couple looked back from time to time. Zhao Qian's face was very panicked, "They are coming."
Wen Ya snorted coldly: "It's best to deliver it to your door yourself, so that I don't have to go all the way to find it."
After walking two or three miles to the left, she saw a large number of refugees. These people were camping around the city wall. Qingyu looked at the haze in the sky, extending far into the distance. She was secretly shocked by the number of refugees here, and even sighed.
The actions of the city and county governor.
Hong Tao finally understood and sneered unabashedly: "No wonder there is an evil spirit. There are so many refugees surrounding the city. They form a circle and the evil energy is so high that it is no wonder that Chengyang County does not fall."
The refugees were all next to each other, with few gaps left. Qingyu and his party walked forward another mile, but still could not find a place to stay.
Hong Tao couldn't stand the scrutinizing and malicious or pitiful looks from around her, so she muttered and complained: "How long do we have to go? It seems that the whole road is full of people. We don't have to go to the end."
, why don’t you go back to the place just now, there is no one there.”
Qingyu shook his head and said: "That place is too close to the city gate, so there must be guards patrolling. Those guards don't regard refugees as human beings, who knows what they will do. We can't fight with the officials now, otherwise there will be no good results."
Hong Tao became more and more depressed, and couldn't help but sigh for her life experience. She thought about her old days, when she had no worries about eating and drinking, and could open her mouth to eat when she had clothes to wear. How happy she was.
"That's it." Just as he was depressed, he heard Wen Ya shouting to stop, and Hong Tao's spirit suddenly improved.
Qingyu looked around and felt a little confused. There were people sitting everywhere on this road, so why was this place so empty? However, it was next to a hillside and this was not Fu County. There was no locust plague, so
There are lush vegetation on the mountain and you can hear the chirping of birds in the forest, so it is indeed suitable for camping.
The four adults put down their backpacks and began to build a shed and pave the ground.
Qingyu quietly came to the basket at home and took out the straw shed from Xuannv Hall. Wen Ya and Zhufeng cooperated very well to take out the straw shed from the basket, Shi An skillfully inserted the wooden stick, and Hong Tao took the pot.
Moved out.
The family cooperated tacitly and quickly built a hut that could accommodate five people. Mrs. Tong was a little surprised and whispered to her husband: "Where did they get the hut?"
Zhao Qian glared, "Don't talk nonsense, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."
Ms. Tong felt a little aggrieved, she was just curious.
After setting up the straw hut, Shi'an took Hong Tao up the mountain to collect firewood while it was still dark, while the clear rain continued to tear the bark off the trees.
From Fu County to here, we traveled on the water for twelve days. From time to time, we could catch some fish to supplement our food. So there was still some bark left. After grinding it all, we could still eat it for three or four days.
As for the back, she wasn't worried at all, because the senior sister would definitely be able to catch prey, as there were many mountains nearby.
Wen Ya took one last look at the camp to confirm that nothing was wrong, then she carried the bow and arrow on her back and handed the bow and arrow she had previously eliminated to Zhao Qian, "I'll go up the mountain to have a look. Zhao Qian, come with me and I'll teach you how to hunt."
"
Zhao Qian was so excited that he hurriedly said "Oh", took the bow and arrow, and followed Wen Ya up the mountain.
Mrs. Tong cleaned up the surrounding stones and said gratefully to Zhufeng, "Thank you for taking care of me along the way."
