"Okay, I'm going to start asking questions now. Did you only contact this group of refugees, or did you contact several groups of refugees? I advise you to think it over carefully before answering." Yun Yiyi said, glancing at the gravel on the ground.

"We only contacted this group of refugees. At that time, we were afraid that if we contacted too many refugees, we would not be able to distribute food, so we did not dare to contact too many refugees." A refugee leader answered in a low voice.

"Why don't I believe what you say?" Yun Yiyi said, tapping her hands with a stick.

The two refugee leaders glanced at each other secretly again.

"I said, we contacted several groups of refugees after leaving the city. However, after you defeated the people who were looting your food at the city gate, broke their arms and legs and threw them to the edge of the square, many refugees changed their minds and didn't come back."

"I seem to have heard them say there's a strongman in your team who's very good at fighting."

"Yes, we originally thought that he was the strong man who could fight." After saying that, the two refugee leaders looked at Yun the Butcher.

"Now we know we have recognized the wrong person. The strong man who can fight is not him, but you, little aunt." The refugee leader said flatteringly.

"We were really wrong, little aunt. Please be magnanimous and forgive us this time." Another refugee leader also said flatteringly.

"Village chief, it seems that this is the only group of refugees coming to rob us. There shouldn't be any more behind them." Yun Yiyi said to the village chief.

"Okay, Yiyi, you are so capable. We didn't think of so much." The village chief gave Yun Yiyi a thumbs up.

"Yes, Yiyi is not only skilled in martial arts, but also very smart." The clan elder said happily.

"We were able to prevent the two refugee robberies tonight thanks to Yiyi. Otherwise, we would not only have lost food, but would also have suffered casualties." The second elder said thankfully.

"I heard the young man say that Yiyi is an extraordinary martial arts master before, but I didn't realize it. Now I finally feel it. It is a great blessing for us to have Yiyi in our village." The three elders also said happily.

"Haha, now that Yiyi is in the team, I feel very safe." The village chief said with a smile.

"Finally, someone is surprised with us. Village chief, you don't know that last time when Yiyi used a stick to break the stones at the city gate, not only Brother Zhang and I were dumbfounded. Those refugees hiding in the bushes were also scared and ran back to the square." Li Xiucai said happily.

"I guess they definitely didn't see the scene where Yiyi kicked the stones to pieces at the city gate. If they had seen it, they would definitely not dare to come and steal the food." Hunter Zhang said, looking at the two refugee leaders on the ground.

"We really didn't see it. If we had seen it, we would have been scared and returned to the city." A refugee leader said regretfully.

"Humph, I said those refugees wouldn't come no matter what we said. It turns out they saw it but didn't tell us. They just wanted to see us get humiliated on purpose." Another refugee leader said viciously.

"Uncle Village Chief, we have found out everything. Let's deal with them according to the old rules and get on our way." Yun Yiyi said.

"Okay, let's handle it according to the old rules." The village chief said happily.

"Little aunt, please don't kill us. We know we were wrong."

"Yes, little aunt. It's our fault that we didn't recognize the great man. Please forgive us this time."

After saying this, the two refugee leaders were so scared that they started crying.

"Don't worry, we are all farmers and we won't kill anyone." The village chief said with a helpless smile.

"Really? You won't kill us?" asked the refugee leader in surprise.

"That must be true." The village chief said unhappily.

"Village chief, I think we should stuff the mouths of all the refugees who come to rob food with clothes. This way, not only can they be quiet for a while, but they will also not be able to reveal our whereabouts to others." said Yun the Butcher.

"I think this idea is very good, elders. What do you think?" The village chief looked at the elders.

"Yes, we still have to keep our whereabouts secret for a while to be safe. Then let's do as Yun the Butcher said." The elder of the clan said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, then move these two refugee leaders to the side of the official road, beat them with a few more sticks, and then gag them." said the village chief.

After the village chief finished speaking, Yun the Butcher carried a refugee leader to the official road. Once there, he threw him to the ground. He then whipped out his stick and struck the leader several times on the arms and legs, ensuring he was immobilized. As a final move, Yun the Butcher tugged at the refugee's clothes and stuffed them into his mouth.

Hunter Zhang and Scholar Li also carried the remaining refugee leader to the official road. After beating him a few more times with sticks, they stuffed clothes into his mouth.

The village chief and the elders went to stuff clothes into the mouths of the refugees who had been thrown onto the official road. Some of the refugees refused to cooperate, but Yun Yiyi hit them with a stick and they became obedient.

By the time everyone had stuffed clothes into the mouths of all the refugees, it was already dawn.

"Okay, we have dealt with all the refugees who are trying to steal food. Let's continue on our way while it's not hot now. When it gets hot at noon, we will eat and rest. Do you have any objections?" The village chief shouted loudly in the middle of the team.

"We have no objection, Village Chief."

"Village chief, let's leave this place quickly. I'm a little scared."

"Yes, Village Chief. I don't think this place is safe."

When the villagers heard what the village chief said, they all started talking.

"Everyone, listen to me for a moment. As the old saying goes, there's no order without rules. I think we should also talk about some rules."

"First, although the food Yun the Butcher and his men bought in the city this time isn't a lot, it's enough to sustain us for a long time. So starting today, we need to speed up our journey. It's hot now, but we can still make progress. Now imagine, when it's cold and the north wind blows, can we still speed up our journey? Therefore, it's still faster in hot weather."

"Second, everyone should store and hide their food and eat sparingly. We don't know when we'll be able to buy food again."

"Third, don't talk about food with other refugees. I won't tell you how important food is. Of course, no matter who's family in our village is out of food, everyone can give them some. If it were other refugees, would they do that? Definitely not. So, on the way to escape famine, don't trust anyone except people from our village. Did you hear that? Did you remember it?" the village chief asked loudly.

"I heard you, Village Chief."

"Remember, village chief."

After listening to everyone, the village chief waved his hand and asked everyone to be quiet.

"Fourthly, everyone should be low-key when eating. If you are eating with others, try not to use strong aromas to avoid attracting attention."
