For someone like Li Feihu who doesn't know martial arts, he can only feel that the atmosphere in this village is a bit strange.

In the eyes of Sheng Nanxi and others, this area was densely covered with eyeliner.

This small village belonged to Yaoguang County, and the surrounding counties were all fiefs of Queen Mother He and He Huaiyuan's younger brother, Prince Yong, He Huai'en.

When he was young, He Huai'en was also a brave general. When the previous emperor came to power, he was granted the title of a prince by relying on his military service. After the empress dowager took power, she promoted him to a prince of a different surname in order to consolidate her power.

But compared to the Queen Mother, who is not related by blood, He Huai'en is closer to He Huaiyuan, a brother with the same father and mother, and is also Prime Minister He's worthy right-hand man.

A few years ago, there were frequent cases of young people going missing in this area, and the county governor at the time did send people to investigate the matter.

It is said that there is solid evidence that it was done by a gang called "Invisible Hand". Since then, that gang has been listed as the top ten wanted criminals in Southern Qi.

The strange thing is that after so many years, this invisible hand has not been caught, and now it is getting worse and worse, and even started kidnapping children.

He doesn't even take the court's wanted order seriously!

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid this organization called 'Invisible Hand' doesn't exist at all. The reason why it was fabricated is just to help the two brothers of the He family to cover up their private affairs!

If you count carefully, the Queen Mother only needed one or two thousand men to make weapons privately and organize such a large battle.

Near Yaoguang Junjun, at least tens of thousands of men have gone missing in the past few years!

How big a project is this that requires so many young people?

Sheng Nanxi thought about it for a moment, and her scalp began to tingle.

It seems that the third brother really didn't brag. Yaoguang County might be hiding a shocking secret that can really shake the royal family of Southern Qi!

The people in the Sheng family's eldest branch had a myriad of thoughts in their minds, and all of them frowned slightly.

Somehow, the whole family looked at Sheng Nanxi in tacit understanding, as if waiting for her opinion.

Sheng Nanxi still looked like an innocent little baby, but when everyone looked over, she nodded without noticing.

She could sense that many people in the dark were staring at her family.

In this case, just follow the other party's instructions and wait for the fish to take the bait!

As the saying goes, high-end hunters always appear as prey!

No matter how weird the atmosphere in the dark was, the hospitality of the village chief and the villagers did not seem fake.

As soon as everyone walked into the Fengyu Pavilion, they smelled the fragrance of rice blowing towards them.

When I got closer, I found that five or six village women had spontaneously built a fire next to the pavilion and cooked porridge for everyone.

At this time of year, everyone is having a hard time. Even having a meal of brown rice is a luxury.

Everyone scraped together some sorghum, corn, rice bran, wheat bran... and cooked a pot of mixed-grain porridge for the exile team.

Many villagers even took out the bacon and pickled vegetables they had stored for the New Year to reward the exiles.

"Woo woo... My three sons were mauled to death by this murderous brown bear. Their bodies were left hanging in the forest for several days before they were found. Woo woo... You are my benefactors!"

"Wuwu... My daughters Xiaoya and Sanya were also killed by this brown bear! If it weren't for our benefactors who killed that beast, I don't know how long the people in our village would have to live in fear!"

"Damn it! I dreamed of killing these three beasts, and today I finally saw their corpses!"

"Wuwu... Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You have saved the lives of our entire village!"

“…”

When the villagers saw the exile team coming, they all came forward to express their gratitude. Some women were so excited that their legs became weak and they knelt down before Sheng Yichen and his men.

It was the first time for the two men from the Liu and Li families, who were at the front of the exile team, to be worshipped like this. At this moment, their faces were all beaming as they went up to help the villagers up one by one.

I heard the villagers talk about how their family members were kidnapped or killed by wild animals in recent years. Everyone's face was moved.

It is said that it is better to be a dog in the imperial palace than a person in the chaotic world. Now the royal family of Southern Qi has neglected state affairs, and there is no difference between the imperial era and the chaotic world!

There were nearly two dozen people in the exile team, including the fugitives and officials, and the food prepared by these villagers was enough to provide a snack for everyone.

Seeing that it was indeed time for lunch, Li Feihu asked the exile team to rest nearby and asked the officers to serve lunch to everyone.

After everyone lined up to receive a bowl of porridge and a large piece of bacon from the villagers, they could also get a bowl of ginger soup and black-faced steamed buns from the officials.

It was one of the few rich foods on the road of exile.

The three bears we killed last night were really big. Even if they were big, they would easily go bad if we didn't eat them quickly.

They decided to cut off a large piece of bear meat and roast it for the villagers to share. However, since bears only bite people and don't eat them, it was not a big deal for everyone to eat it.

Chewing the meat, we even felt the pleasure of chopping our enemies into pieces. We ate and talked by the fire, which was a rare and happy time.

While paying attention to the movements in the dark, Sheng Nanxi quietly replaced the porridge in the bowls of everyone in the Sheng family's main room.

Apart from the bear meat they grilled themselves, the people in the Sheng family's eldest branch never ate anything given by the villagers.

Sure enough, within a cup of tea, the exiles fell down in rows like scarecrows in the wind!

Even the village chief and a dozen enthusiastic villagers rolled their eyes and fell to the ground!
