Chapter 40： Stay at the ruined temple

Chapter 40 Living in the ruined temple

"Uncle Baogen tried to reason with her at the beginning, but found that it didn't make sense, so he and his parents started robbing the child again. After finally robbing the child, the old couple hurriedly carried two bags of food and were about to run away with their children and grandchildren , but that crazy woman grabbed Uncle Baogen's youngest son's leg."

"They were chattering at the door of the house. The soldiers who first entered the village saw them and ran straight to them. When the woman saw the knife in the opponent's hand, she screamed in fright and ran away. It's just that Baogen suffered a lot. Uncle, you have to protect your parents as well as your children."

Ye Anlan: →_→What the **** is this weird thing!

She asked Su Xiaohe, "How do you know so clearly? Did you see it?"

Su Xiaohe pointed at the roof of the house, "I'm going to ask Fengshou to come back for dinner. When I walked to the middle of the village, I happened to meet Fengshou and ran back from outside the village. He had a loud voice, and the villagers could hear his shouts from far away. Other movements were swift. They have already run to the end of the village, but Uncle Baogen and his family are doing well, the rebels have all reached the head of the village, and they can be seen, but their whole family is still yelling and robbing their children."

Ye Anlan pinched the center of her eyebrows, "So you and Fengshou went to help?"

Although Su Xiaohe has only practiced martial arts for a few days, Ye Anlan also equipped her with self-made sleeve arrows for self-defense. In addition, this girl is resolute, able to endure hardships, willing to learn, and courageous, Ye Anlan can guess what she did at that time without thinking deeply.

"I didn't help much." Su Xiaohe shook his head regretfully, "I just shot two sleeve arrows and injured two rebels. The rest was done by Harvest."

"It's already very good." Ye Anlan praised her, "Many people face that kind of scene for the first time, and they will be frightened and limp. At least you calmly used the sleeve arrow."

As for Zheng Fengshou, she has been training this kid intentionally for a long time, and Ye Anlan is not at all surprised that he dares to fight and kill.

Ye Jinkui also said: "Fortunately, there are Fengshou and Xiaohe. If it weren't for their help, your Uncle Baogen might have died this time."

After he said this, Ye Anlan understood why the always kind Ye Jinkui suggested that his good brother and his wife should divorce.

"I also gave you Uncle Baogen twenty taels of silver, a few bags of rice grains, and some wound medicine." Ye Jinkui sighed, "In order to escape, except for a little silver on their bodies, their family really didn't take anything with them this time. If you come out, the whole family will have to starve for food."

Ye Anlan doesn't care, just give it, anyway, she got a lot of money from touching the corpse during this time.

Although most of it was spent, Ye Anlan could still afford to give her father's good brother twenty taels of help.

She asked Ye Jinkui, "Then where did Uncle Baogen and the others go?"

Ye Jinkui said: "I went to his uncle's house. His uncle is a hunter and lives in Wangjiazhai, about 60 miles away from our village. It is poor and remote, and most of the villagers are hunters who have seen blood. I won't go over and make trouble."

He gave the other party twenty taels of silver, and the other party has some family background. With this money, the other party can build an ordinary farmyard in Wangjiazhai, and then cultivate a few acres of wasteland. His uncle learned how to hunt, so he barely had to worry about eating and drinking.

Ye Anlan couldn't help sighing when he heard the words.

People in a troubled world are not as good as Taiping dogs. For those who have no ability, it is like a dream to seek stability in this world. It is an extravagant hope.

To be able to hide in the mountains with her family and seek refuge with relatives like Uncle Baogen, Grandpa Lizheng, Uncle Huzi, and Uncle Erzhu, is actually considered lucky.

Although they don't know how long their luck can last, at least for now, their situation is far better than that of ordinary people.

A group of people had lunch together, Ye Jinkui and Zheng Fengshou got into the car, and everyone embarked on the road of moving east again.

Ye Anlan was still in charge of scouting the road ahead, and she always kept a short distance from the large troops. This distance not only allowed her to respond to possible dangers ahead in time, but also allowed her to meet people in the convoy. When in danger, withdraw support at the first time.

***

The group stopped and went, during which they dispatched no less than ten groups of scattered refugees who wanted to get their way, and finally reached the ruined temple that Ye Anlan had hoped for before.

The dilapidated temple is not too big, with a total of five houses in front and back, and three of them are occupied by refugees passing by.

Ye Anlan picked the relatively undamaged one of the remaining two rooms to house Mrs. Li and the others, and then drove the mule cart into the narrow courtyard in the middle of the temple through the back door.

They had carts and mules, with bags piled on the cart and baskets on their backs. They looked like they had a lot of wealth. As soon as they entered the ruined temple, they attracted the attention of all the refugees in the temple.

Some of these gazes are pure envy, but more of them are malicious.

Ye Anlan pretended not to notice those veiled or blatant gazes, and she let Ye Jinkui and others enter the room, "Go and rest first, I will watch the mule cart."

Ye Jinkui nodded, and took Mrs. Li and others into the house to eat.

There are people around, and it is inconvenient to light a fire to cook, and it is easier to attract people to covet. Ye Jinkui and the others ate the coarse-grain pickle stuffed pie prepared by Li Shi and others in the morning.

Pairing cold water with cold pancakes doesn’t really taste good, but compared to those refugees outside who can only eat grass roots and bark, they are undoubtedly lucky and happy.

While everyone was eating, Ye Anlan outside ushered in the first group of refugees who coveted their two carts of supplies.

There are only a dozen or so refugees in this group. Although the number is comparable to Ye Anlan and the others, all of them are tall, young and strong, unlike Ye Anlan and the others, they look good at first glance The bullying kids and women are the main people on the team.

"Hey, kids, is your cart full of food?"

Ye Anlan's appearance is really not deterrent. This group of refugees who are between 20 and 30 years old and bully other refugees because of their physical strength, don't pay attention to Ye Anlan who is in charge of guarding the vehicle.

The headed man walked towards Ye Anlan while talking.

"I advise you not to go forward again." Ye Anlan bent her bow and set an arrow, thinking that if the other party came closer, she would shoot him to death with one arrow.

The burly man was taken aback for a moment, but soon laughed again, "Hey, you guys have encountered a hard problem."

He stared at Ye Anlan's small body, strode forward provocatively, and kept chattering, "I said kid, have you ever killed someone? Have you ever seen blood? Do you know what it's like to be human? Just trying to scare your grandpa with a secondary bow and arrow"

Thanks to Zhanlan wy for the monthly pass, and thanks to the cute little ones for their collection and recommendation tickets, (*з)(ε｀*)啦~
