The refugees here have long been eyeing this large group.

They hadn't seen a group of refugees carrying so much food for a long time.

Refugees who have been hungry for a long time.

I unconsciously smelled the aroma of food coming towards me.

Almost all the refugees on the plain gathered here.

But they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

Hundreds of burly men were standing there with swords in their hands, watching them closely.

They could only smell the aroma of rice wafting from the other side from a distance of three meters.

The Su family and the Gu family did not dare to be too ostentatious.

All they made tonight was a simple rice and millet porridge, a plate of stir-fried wild vegetables, and a stew made from various leftover meats.

...

...

Multi-grain steamed buns prepared according to each person's appetite.

This meal was already the simplest one for the Su and Gu families.

But for the refugees who had been hungry for several days, this meal was definitely a rare delicacy in the world.

Both families finished their meal as quickly as possible.

The pots and pans would be used again the next morning, so the women simply washed them and placed them in front of or behind the car before going to rest.

After the young men had eaten and drunk their fill, they took their swords and began to take turns guarding the night to prevent refugees.

Late night.

Shen Shuli, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the howling of wild dogs.

After she gets up.

The men in the team have already started fighting with the hyenas.

Shen Shuli glanced over.

I couldn't help but feel my scalp tingling slightly.

She had never seen so many hyenas!

Looking around, there are thousands of densely packed green eyes!

This place is no longer considered the north.

I didn’t expect there would be such a large group of hyenas here!

Shen Shuli guessed that these hyena groups must have been forced to migrate from far away due to the severe drought.

Fortunately, the men and bodyguards in the team are not pushovers.

Everyone fought back and forth with the hyenas.

Seeing that her father did not intervene, Shen Shuli did not move either, sitting on a high place and observing the entire battle situation.

There were thousands of hyenas in the pack.

Their first targets were weak refugees who did not have much killing power.

The group of refugees started fleeing as soon as the hyenas appeared.

But their running speed can't be compared with that of hyenas at all.

The attack of the long-starved hyenas was undoubtedly crazy.

Some brave refugees would choose to fight with hyenas, but they were weak and soon ran out of strength.

Hyena packs are a species that fights in teams and will immediately attack anyone who has no fighting ability.

There was also a group of refugees who were lucky enough to escape the encirclement of the hyenas and successfully escaped, disappearing from everyone's sight.

Across the great plains.

The wailing of humans and the roar of hyenas resounded through the world.

The escorts and men in the team had never seen such a large pack of wild dogs.

Yes.

In their perception.

These hyenas are wild dogs.

The hyena's final sight was on the large group of humans in front of it.

Their numbers are so large that killing refugees cannot satisfy their appetite.

A greater number of food animals must be killed to allow them to survive the famine.

But the team in front of them was obviously not comparable to those weak refugees.

Their lethality is beyond the hyena's comprehension.

soon.

One third of the hyena pack died.

Seeing that things were not going well, the remaining hyenas left with the food without hesitation.

The hyenas disappeared from sight.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In this battle, Su Yunhai did not let those who had hot weapons open fire. Instead, he asked them to use their respective cold weapons to fight against the hyena pack to gain experience.

Maybe it's because there are so many people in the team.

Hyenas are just ordinary wild beasts with limited intelligence.

There were almost no injuries.

"Captain Su, what should we do with these wild dogs? Should we deal with them and take them away?"

Li Rui didn't have time to deal with the blood on his body, and hurried over to ask Su Yunhai, his eyes full of desire for fresh prey.

As the team leader, Su Yunhai asked everyone to call him captain.

This saves the trouble of calling each person by a different name.

He shook his head and refused immediately.

"These are not wild dogs, they are hyenas, but they look similar to wild dogs."

"Their main food is carrion, which carries a lot of toxins in their bodies. In addition, the meat of these hyenas is very sour and astringent, and is not suitable for consumption at all."

"You should have seen that these hyenas must have eaten a lot of people. Can you eat them all?"

Li Rui finally reacted after hearing what he said, and quickly shook his head and waved his hands to refuse.

"Forget it, I thought it was a wild dog, but I didn't expect it to be another kind of wild beast." Li Rui sighed.

"But the hyena's skin can be peeled off and made into shoes for everyone to wear." Su Yunhai reminded.

It's too much wear and tear on the shoes for the people in the team.

Only soles made of animal fur can withstand wear.

Upon hearing this, Li Rui showed joy on his face and immediately led people to start processing the hyena fur.

Seeing this, Gu Changfeng also asked the escort to peel off the hyena fur that belonged to him and deal with it.

Now is a year of famine.

No one knows how long this natural and man-made disaster will last or when it will end.

Even though the Gu family is wealthy and powerful, they dare not waste a single cent.

Everyone took turns working on it all night, and finally all the excess grease was removed from the fur.

There are still several processes to go, so I can only take time out every day to complete one process.

It's not daybreak yet.

Su Yunhai sent people to the river to replenish water.

The water in Qin River is very turbid and full of mud.

But some water is better than no water.

It can still be used after a simple filtering.

It is less than a hundred miles away from Pingyang Prefecture.

Su Yunhai planned to have the team arrive as soon as possible before dark.

Perhaps it was because their group of refugees looked very large.

The refugees who were traveling in groups along the way didn't dare to attack the team at all.

The whole day's journey went smoothly.

Until the crescent moon hangs high in the starry sky.

The team had just arrived ten miles outside Pingyang Prefecture.

"Captain, we are still 20 miles away from Pingyang Prefecture. Why don't we rest early and continue our journey tomorrow morning?"

The Gu family carried too much supplies, and after seven hours of travel, the escorts were exhausted.

Gu Changfeng hurried over to discuss with Su Yunhai.

Upon hearing this, Su Yunhai smiled and nodded in agreement.

There are only the last twenty miles left, so there is really no need to rush.

"Okay, but I don't think there's a suitable place for us to rest nearby."

Su Yunhai had a night vision goggles hidden in his arms.

When traveling at night, I would secretly wear it from time to time to observe the terrain.

Gu Changfeng fell silent after hearing this.

"Why don't we rest on the side of the road for an hour? There aren't many people traveling at night anyway, so we shouldn't be in any trouble."

"Shall we continue our journey in an hour?"

There was no other good way, so Su Yunhai nodded in agreement.

I heard I could finally rest.

Everyone helped each other, put the supplies on the roadside, and rested on the spot.

Everyone was drinking water or eating.

The younger children were already feeling sleepy, so they immediately found a spot on the side of the road and fell asleep.

I don't even have the energy to drink a sip of water.

"Dad, I'll go to the front to see what's going on." Shen Shuli said to Su Yunhai.

"Well, be careful."

Su Yunhai did not refuse and immediately nodded in agreement.

He was also worried that Pingyang Prefecture would not be easy to enter, so it would be better to find out some information in advance.
