Chapter 185 Taiping Mountain is not peaceful

The young wife of the Pei family quickly covered her burning lips and hid away. She felt indignant and resentful, believing that all this was caused by Shen Yunyue and her husband.

If the couple had died early, their lives would surely have been extremely smooth.

Who would have thought that if it weren't for Shen Yunyue's several predictions, most of the exiles would have died in natural disasters and man-made calamities.

Scarface Peng touched his chin and thought for a while, "Come here. Bring some people to burn the bandits from Nanli Kingdom. As for these horses?" He was a horse lover, but he really couldn't bear to kill these horses.

"These are war horses." Old Huang saw the meaning and said with a smack of his lips.

War horses are of great value.

Peng Scarface looked embarrassed and asked, "Shall we take it with us on the way back?"

"That's fine. But what should we do with these war horses now?" Old Huang knew that it was not a good idea to take these war horses to send the exiles to their destination.

The monkey scratched his head and his eyes lit up.

"Boss, how about the two of us stay here and find a place to keep the horse for now? It won't take more than three or four days for you to arrive."

Men love horses like women love jewelry.

It's my nature.

When they see war horses, their eyes light up.

Shen Yunyue couldn't help but smack her lips in amazement. These people were like modern men encountering luxury cars.

Suddenly, the old and dilapidated house in my hands is no longer attractive.

She touched the head of her own horse and watched Ah Si and the bailiff gather the bodies of the black-faced man and his men together.

"Pour some kerosene." Shen Yunyue reminded them.

Xiao Liuzi raised his eyes and paused after hearing this, "I'll go get the kerosene."

While they were getting the kerosene, Shen Yunyue walked over and pretended to examine the corpses. The hand under her sleeve trembled slightly, and the powder in her hand fell on the corpses.

With these powders, the body burned quickly until not even the bones were left.

Shen Yunyue didn't trust the people in the fields in the distance. Looking at their eyes, she always felt that they were spineless.

If there are bones left, even if they are burned into charcoal, they can be easily identified by these people.

Xiao Liuzi quickly came over with a jar of kerosene and poured it all over the corpse.

Then a flint was struck and the torch was thrown onto the corpse.

Suddenly.

The flames suddenly burst into flames.

The group of people who were complaining earlier were instantly speechless.

"These exiles are so vicious that they don't even let those people rest in peace?" someone complained in surprise.

Some people are not convinced.

"Bah! When the barbarians of Nanli Country were burning, killing, and plundering us, didn't they think about us?"

"The dead are our enemies. Let them rest in peace. I wish I could grind their bones into dust and scatter their ashes." The man who had agreed with Shen Yunyue and the others before could not hide his joy.

At the same time, I had a bold idea in my mind.

Life wouldn't be too bad if you lived as neighbors with exiles like these.

He stroked his chin and looked with disdain at the spineless people in his village who had been kneeling for too long.

My mind became more and more determined.

The old man was about to say something when he realized the other person was a hunter. Hunters are ruthless and powerful, but it's wise to avoid being caught off guard.

When the barbarians come, we have to get ourselves out of trouble.

Don't implicate these kind-hearted ordinary people.

Everyone in this group of people has his own calculations and plans.

Scarface Peng originally wanted to ask everyone to leave immediately.

Shen Yunyue walked over and whispered:

"Master, let's wait a while. We've already arrived in Shihan Province, so we can wait a little longer. If there's any unusual movement, we can be prepared."

Scarface Peng turned his head and looked deeply at the common people.

He nodded and said:

"Well. Miss Shen, being in Shihanzhou is not like being on the road of exile. You are prone to being at a disadvantage with your personality."

"Zhang Zhizhou is extremely protective of his subordinates, and his family is arrogant and domineering. It's not an exaggeration to say that the Zhang family is the local tyrant of Shihanzhou. You won't be able to stay at the foot of the mountain for the rest of your lives. Think carefully about what you do in the future."

Shen Yunyue was surprised by Peng Scarface's reminder and smiled faintly:

"Thank you for the reminder, Master. Yunyue will keep it in mind."

Peng Scarface had an expression that said, "I don't believe you." "Well, it's just a waste of time. You two, how could you be the kind of people who would settle down and reclaim wasteland?"

"Of course we need to reclaim the wasteland. Shen Yunyue has already made plans. Let's become a wealthy and idle person with land."

Monkey came over to discuss with Scarface Peng about the two men he was taking to look after the horse. "Boss, we can't sell the horse here. It's not a good idea to let it fall into the hands of those people in Nanli or Xiliang."

Look at those horses.

Scarface Peng’s frown deepened.

"That's fine. You guys can stay here. Remember to find a secluded place so those bandits from Taiping Mountain don't find you."

After a pause, Scarface Peng felt uneasy.

Seeing the monkey's bright and happy face, he gave him a few more instructions.

"Monkey. Be careful and save your life first when encountering any problem."

"It's okay if you lose your horse, even if you lose your own mount. Got it?"

Shen Yunyue had never seen Scarface Peng be so talkative before, and she looked at the horses thoughtfully.

An idea struck her, and she bent down, pulled out a pair of bayonets from her leggings, and handed them to Monkey. "Monkey, these bayonets are for you. I'll get you two bottles of medicine."

"One bottle is the best wound medicine, and the other is the Hundred Poison Pill that can cure most poisons."

The monkey did not refuse and took it and put it in his arms.

"Thank you, Miss Shen."

"Boss, you guys go first. We'll stay and see if it's almost burned, then drive our horses to find a place nearby." The monkey smiled and waved his hand.

"Okay. Let's find a place along the river."

"Boss, if you keep nagging like that, I will..." The monkey scratched his head speechlessly.

Scarface Peng pursed his lips and glanced sideways coldly, and the monkey immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking.

Fu Xuanheng looked around carefully for a long time, and Yingfeng followed behind him.

From time to time, I could hear Fu Xuanheng say a few words from a distance.

Shen Yunyue looked at the two of them and walked over.

Shen Yunfeng had already instructed a few little guys to gather the things on the carriage. Just now, when the black-faced man came over, some things were scattered all over the ground.

"Daniel. Check the wheels of the carriage."

Shen Yunfeng's features resembled Shen Cixuan's, and his manner of speaking and doing things became increasingly calm. Although he was only ten years old, he possessed the courage to stand on his own.

After giving instructions to Da Niu, Shen Yunfeng walked towards Shen Yunyue.

"elder sister."

Shen Yunyue paused. Looking at the serious Shen Yunfeng, she couldn't help but sigh, "Now that we're in Shihan Province, it's time to relax a bit. You're still young, there's no need to be so tense."

The corners of Shen Yunfeng's tightly pursed lips moved.

"We haven't even reached the destination yet. Bandits are rampant here. Shihan Prefecture is also a gathering place for refugees, and Taiping Mountain is not peaceful." Shen Yunfeng said with a mature look, "I am the eldest son in the family. How can I leave everything to my eldest sister?"

"I think I've reached the point. Sister, follow your husband and live your own life."

Shen Yunfeng had long wanted to say that the burden of the Shen family could not be borne on Shen Yunyue's shoulders, nor on Fu Xuanheng's shoulders.

Looking at the determined eyes of the young man in front of her, Shen Yunyue's heart moved.

He slowly reached out and placed his hand on Shen Yunfeng's shoulder.

"Yunfeng, I know what you're thinking. But you're only 10 years old. Mother has never suffered any hardship in either the Mo or Shen family in her entire life.

It has always been a carefree life.

Are you really sure you want to take on the responsibility of the Shen family?"

Shen Yunfeng nodded heavily. "Sister said I was only 10 years old, but you are only 14. Brother-in-law is only 18. Don't we all have to shoulder our own responsibilities?"

"Sister, don't worry. With me in the Shen family, I will definitely not let Dad down."

There was a fighting spirit in Shen Yunfeng's clear eyes that refused to give up.

"Yunfeng. Sister promises you, but you should also think about it carefully. We will always be a family." Shen Yunyue pinched Shen Yunfeng's earlobe.

He suddenly opened his eyes wide and carefully savored Shen Yunyue's words.

"Xuan Heng is back, let's get on the carriage." Shen Yunyue turned around indifferently.

Shen Yunfeng raised his eyes and looked at Fu Xuanheng, "Brother-in-law."

Fu Xuanheng nodded gently, "Don't think too much. Yunyue and I have our own plans."

Shen Yunfeng: .... So all these words were said in vain.

Several people got on the carriage and started on their journey again.

The journey ahead became increasingly difficult.

The narrow and muddy path is difficult to walk on. Logically speaking, this should be the border of several countries and a gathering place for merchants.

Merchants from all over the world can exchange and purchase the goods they want here and take them back.

But this depressed scene shows poverty in every way.

Shen Yunyue knew about poverty, but she didn't expect it to be so desolate.

Even the sprouting leaves seemed desolate to her. "No wonder they say, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. The roads here are truly difficult and dangerous."

Fu Xuanheng leaned against the wall of the carriage and opened his dozing eyes.

"If you want to develop this into a trading city in the future, we can just find a way to build a road."

Shen Yunyue: ... "Fu Xuanheng. Can you read minds?"

Fu Xuanheng had a smile on his face, his eyes filled with a bright, soft light. "You love money so much, do I still need to read your mind?"

This... is really true.
