In their previous lives, Su Yin, her mother, and her sister-in-law were brutally mu*dered by a mob. In a twist of fate, all three were reborn together.
Before the mob could reach their villag...
He looked towards the horse, took a few steps forward and took a closer look. There were bloodstains on the horse, and there were also scattered bloodstains on the bushes near the horse.
Bloodstains!
Is this blood someone else's, or their own?
Su Yin didn't rush back. She squatted outside and observed, not daring to get too close.
Not long after, someone came out of the wooden house. Su Yin secretly observed that the man had a wound bandaged on his arm. His face was terribly pale and he looked like he had lost too much blood.
It seems that my guess was correct, they were injured.
In terms of the distance they are traveling, they are heading in the same direction.
Now they are hiding here, probably to avoid being hunted down.
After the man returned to the wooden house, Su Yin turned around and left. She was very careful the whole time and did not dare to make any noise. Who knew how good the hearing of these martial artists was? If someone heard her, she would be in trouble.
Su Yin rushed back to the team as quickly as possible.
They cannot get too close to those people. If they kill them in order to keep the secret, it would be an unjust death.
Therefore, the first thing I did when I came back was to notify everyone to find a place to set up tents nearby.
Doctor Li slapped his forehead and said, "Miss Su, I remember that there is a wooden house a little further ahead. I don't know if it is good or if it can shelter us from the rain. Let's set up a tent over there."
Su Yin shook her head. "You can't go there. I've seen it just now. The wooden house has been occupied. The people who occupy the wooden house are very dangerous. Don't go there."
"Could it be bandits?" said my cousin's husband Zhou Youcai.
"Not a bandit, but someone scarier than a bandit." Su Yin was considering whether to tell the truth.
After thinking about it, I decided to tell everyone the truth. At least when danger comes, everyone will be mentally prepared and won't panic.
"That group is the same group that intercepted us after coming out of Linzhi County. It seems that they are in trouble. We'd better stay away from them to avoid getting into trouble."
Master Wan San frowned and reminded everyone, "That group is not easy to deal with. If we provoke them, none of us will have a good ending."
Seeing that Master Wan San also said this, everyone felt uneasy.
Yang Dashan said, "How about we move back a little further?"
"Yeah, let's go further away."
"That's not necessary. We are still far away from there."
Su Yin looked up at both sides of the road. It seemed unsafe to set up camp on either side of the road.
She was very uneasy and always felt that something bad was going to happen.
"What's wrong?" Master Wan San noticed that something was wrong with her expression.
"My heart is pounding. I always feel like something is going to happen." Su Yin raised her eyes and looked around. "I always feel like this place is not safe enough. Something is going to happen."
"Didn't you say last night that you believed in your intuition?" Master Wan San looked around and said, "In that case, why don't we go deeper into the forest and be more cautious? It won't hurt in the end."
It's better than regretting it after it happens.
"That's exactly what I meant."
Su Yin found Li Rui and the others, told them her thoughts and also expressed her concerns.
"I think you're right. Camping on the side of the road is really too conspicuous. Let's go inside."
Camping in the mountains is naturally much more difficult than camping on the side of the road, and the conditions are much worse, but for your own safety, it is still worth it.
Everyone in the team understood and no one raised any objections. Everyone looked after each other and walked into the forest.
Because there was a carriage but no road in the forest, it was very difficult to travel.
"Everyone, watch your step and hold on to the car."
"Those behind me should not walk too fast. Everyone should keep an eye on each other."
After walking about 500 meters into the woods, a steep cliff appeared in front of us. There was a protruding rock at the bottom, which just formed a small opening. It was not a cave, but it could block some wind and rain.
"That's a nice place." Yang Dachuan looked at the cracked stone wall in front of him.
Su Yin looked at the distance they walked, which was still some distance from the mountain road, "Second uncle, let's set up camp over there."
The people behind came up, took a look, and thought it was good.
"This is a good place. We'll get some wood here later and insert the wood on top. Then we'll build a shelf underneath and cover it with oilcloth. There will be much more space for activities." As soon as Zhang Bingliang looked at the location, he knew how to make use of it.
Su Yin didn't need to say anything, everyone knew what to do.
Because Li Rui and his friends didn't have any tarpaulins, they decided to stay together to avoid the rain instead of settling according to their respective families.
We set up tents along the gap in the stone wall and use it for rest.
Extending from the stone wall to the interior, the depth is only about six feet, the length is three and a half feet, and the height is about four feet. Su Yin couldn't stand up straight and had to lower his head.
They were building a space outside, but even that wasn't enough to accommodate everyone.
So they had to set up two tents nearby.
Su Yin, Li Rui and Zhang Bingliang were dividing the living area. The three uncles and Li's eldest uncle and others went to get wood. The women cleaned the inside of the stone wall and the places where tents needed to be set up according to Su Yin and others' requirements.
"Everyone, hurry up. The rain could fall at any time." Old man Zhang looked up at the sky and reminded everyone.
Although everyone covered the food and everything with oilcloth as soon as possible, people are prone to catching colds after being caught in the rain.
In modern times, a cold is not a serious illness, but in the Yong Dynasty it was a disease that could be fatal.
The children also did what they could.
"Let me do it." Yunniang stepped forward to take the wood from Suyin.
"Yunniang, you are pregnant, just go to the side and rest."
"It's okay. I'm fine. It's okay to move around. I don't feel like vomiting today."
"You should rest more in the first three months. Be good and sit down." Su Yin suppressed her restless hand.
When Yunniang heard the word "good boy", she felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
She is obviously a few years older than her, but why does she sound like a child in her mouth?
"Okay, I won't move."
No one else asked her to do anything and asked her to go and rest aside. She had no choice but to go and rest aside and watch others busy themselves.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the rustling sound of leaves echoed in the woods.
Su Yin looked at the tent that had just been built after the wood was inserted, and prayed in her heart that it would be good if it could rain half an incense stick of time later.
Maybe God heard her voice, because at this moment there was only wind but no rain.
After the last tent was set up, the dark clouds could no longer hold back the sky and raindrops as big as beans fell down.
"Oh, this rain comes at a perfect time."
Su Yin looked at the extra wood outside and said, "Uncle, break the wood into sections and lay them under the tent. When it rains hard later, you won't have to wade through the water."
