Just when all the people were rushing to the court to register and receive food.
Xiao Bin took all the people from the second branch of the Xiao family and quietly found their own raft. They also went to the tent of the third in command and gave each of them a bag of the silver they had looted.
Because the incident happened suddenly, many people did not react and rushed to grab property.
But there were people from the imperial court there, and they noticed that everyone was in chaos, and then they all went to the tents on the top of the mountain to grab things, and they found them in an instant.
Therefore, not many people among the people were able to grab the treasures. The people from the second house were relatively lucky. Before everyone could react, they grabbed several large bags of silver and treasures.
Because of time constraints, I only had time to see the silver inside, and I didn't look closely at the rest of the things.
No matter what it is, as long as you get it, it is yours.
There were 11 people in the second room, and each of them carried a big bag and a small bag.
He hurriedly found a raft halfway up the mountain and pushed it directly to the top of the mountain where Yun Ruoxi, Mu Ruxue and the others were before.
Because when the imperial court arrived, many people gathered on the other side, and there was no one guarding the back, which gave the people from the second house a chance to escape.
However, this time, when the imperial court arrived, they naturally could not let everyone go so easily. They searched every mountain thoroughly to ensure that no one was spared.
I don’t know whether the second branch’s fate is good or bad. The bad fate is that they encountered bandits from Langya Mountain, which caused Xiao Qingyu to lose his innocence.
The lucky thing about them was that their escape was extremely smooth. Not only did they get the silver, they also found a raft, and now they even found a hidden cave on the mountain where Yun Ruoxi and the others were before.
Moreover, there is a natural thorn forest outside the cave, which successfully covers the entrance of the cave.
Moreover, the people from the second house deliberately hid, so the people from the court were unable to find them.
Besides, the people from the court did not go out of their way to look for them. They just followed the regulations and searched every person on every mountain thoroughly. They only left after making sure that there was no one there.
Aunt Bai hid in the cave, listening to the noise outside, covering her mouth and not daring to make a sound.
They were just afraid that someone would hear them and attract the police, which would then get them into trouble.
The people of the second house were afraid of the officials because they were exiled prisoners. Now that there were no officials escorting them, there seemed to be something wrong no matter how you looked at it.
They also stole the money that the Langya Mountain bandits had looted before, and Xiao Bin was also afraid that these officials would take the things away.
This was the first time that the people from the second house had seen so much silver since their house was ransacked, so Xiao Bin naturally would not give it away.
What they didn’t know was that by escaping the officials who came to provide disaster relief this time, they also saved their lives.
After the officials rescued all the people, they placed them separately on a boat, regardless of gender, and escorted all the people to the mountains near Yanyuan Prefecture, where they were left to fend for themselves.
Life was not much different from when he was oppressed by the bandits in Langya Mountain.
Because the officials left all the people on the mountain and then left, and only delivered food on time.
However, there were no officials stationed there, and the people started fighting over food. The bandits in Langya Mountain were relatively united, and they once again took control of the refugees on the mountain.
Just when the bandits in Langya Mountain were feeling complacent, they slowly sensed something was wrong.
The amount of food sent by the court every day was getting less and less. Not only that, at the beginning, the officials dared to come to the foot of the mountain to deliver food.
Now, after the raft was delivered, they quickly jumped back on their boat and headed back.
The third in command of Langya Mountain was not one to eat for free, and he soon discovered something was wrong.
Because many of the refugees have started coughing, vomiting, and having fever.
The third in command of Langya Mountain was not a fool either. He soon discovered clues from the state of these people.
Combined with the attitude of the court officials towards them, we can understand why the officials, after rescuing everyone, searched all the mountains thoroughly and then unified all the people under their management.
Every day, they can only keep people from starving to death, and even the coffins will not come to the mountain to manage the people.
Combining all these things, the third in command of Langya Mountain concluded that the plague might have been caused by the flood.
They are now being managed under a centralized management because we are afraid that the plague will spread to the city.
The Third Master said angrily with a cold face, "Hurry up and throw all those who are coughing, vomiting, and infected with the cold into the flood. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid we will all die."
Although the other bandits didn't understand what it meant, they were used to following the orders of the third in command, so they didn't ask any questions and hurried to do it.
No matter how the people infected with the cold cried and begged, the third in command threw the sick people into the flood without hesitation.
In fact, no matter where the body was thrown, it was within the territory of Yongzhou, and because the flood has not completely receded, it is very likely that it will be fixed not far away and sunk into the mud.
Now that the situation has become like this, throwing refugees out in an attempt to protect oneself will not be very effective.
But when people are afraid, they always want to do something, just for psychological comfort.
Originally, the third in command wanted to find all the people from the second branch after the bandits in Langya Mountain were stabilized.
Before he could take any action, he discovered about the plague. He was so panicked that he even forgot about the affairs of the second house.
But this time, everyone was smart. Those who had brains gave money to the officials and separated them from the bandits in Langya Mountain.
As long as they are not in the same mountain, the girls in the family will not be persecuted.
Although this method is not a good one, at least it can save your life at a critical moment.
It was at this time that Li Ergou secretly hid on another mountain. Although he had robbed a lot of silver from the Langya Mountain bandits, he did not dare to get close to them.
Because the mountains were not far away, everyone could see that the third in command of Langya Mountain threw the person directly into the river.
Some smarter ones have already started secretly asking others why the person was pushed into the river?
When I heard that the people who were pushed down were all infected with colds or had constant coughing and vomiting, I immediately thought of the plague.
With Langya Mountain and the bandits taking the lead, the refugees on other mountains also valued their lives very much. They gathered together and pushed all those who were unwell, vomiting and coughing into the flood.
