Chapter 61 If you dare to do this, I will knock out your eyes
The leader stroked his chin and licked his cracked lips with his tongue, revealing a lewd smile.
"Hahaha, Miss Shen. The world is so big, there are all kinds of strange things. Why do you have to deceive yourself?"
Shen Yunyue thought to herself that it was indeed so.
"Who sent you here? Pretending to be refugees, you came to assassinate us?"
"We are refugees. We are refugees implicated by corrupt officials. If the deposed crown prince hadn't embezzled our relief funds,
How did we end up like this?"
The leading man's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Since you have cut off our path to survival, don't blame us for coming here to seek revenge."
"Yes. All this was done by the deposed crown prince."
"Everyone in the carriage, get out. No one from the Deposed Crown Prince's Mansion will leave here alive."
Those refugees were different from some of the people around them. They were strong and had fierce eyes.
More like a bandit who robs and loots.
…
Fu Xuanting's face turned pale, for she was afraid that the Shen family would push her out.
He quietly tried to climb onto the carriage and hide.
Shen Yunyue's eyes flashed.
He sneered coldly:
"You've been implicated? I think you're just bandits who've taken over the mountain and are just taking other people's money to do things for you."
She was not tall, and she stood in front of the crowd, but her courage and boldness showed no sign of timidity.
It seemed as if everything was under her control.
"It's impossible to kill us in the chaos. My Shen family is small, but we are not afraid of fear."
Shen Yunyue was holding a crossbow in her hand, which was the one Fu Xuanheng bought from the Han family.
Five crossbow arrows were aimed at the people in front.
A slight smile on his lips:
"Do you think all five of my arrows will hit the target?"
The people on the opposite side hesitated, and some raised their swords to fight back.
The real refugees were panicked when they saw the Shen family had swords, knives, and crossbows. "It's none of our business."
"They said they would take us to eat meat and drink porridge."
Shen Yunyue said coldly:
"They're not bringing you meat and soup. They're letting you be scapegoats. If something really happens, can you outrun them?"
When those people heard this, they quickly took a few steps back.
The leader didn't expect that Shen Yunyue's few words would shake his morale.
"You little bitch, you're so sharp-tongued. Let me pull out your teeth and see what you can say." He swept a sinister look over the crowd.
I already know who the weak link is.
"Come on, I'll reward you ten taels of silver for every person I kill."
Ten taels of silver can drive many people crazy.
The refugees who had originally retreated were moved.
They swarmed around the carriage. "For ten taels of silver, let's fight them."
Shen Yunyue loosened her hand, and five arrows shot towards five people.
Five people fell down.
Her archery skills stopped some people in their tracks, and everyone knew that money could only be spent if one lived.
Ah Si raised his knife and chopped off a man's arm. A terrible cry was heard at the scene.
"Do you still want to earn ten taels of silver?"
"Miss Shen. Don't make things difficult for us." The man said sternly with narrowed eyes.
"What a joke! You want to kill us, but you're saying we're making things difficult for you." Shen Yunyue raised the crossbow again, "If you don't want to live, keep going."
Just by looking at Yingfeng's movements, you can tell that he is quite skilled.
The leader knew that he had run into a tough opponent this time.
"We'll let you go this time. Mountains are high and rivers are long. I hope Miss Shen won't meet us again." The leader said unwillingly.
He thought that by taking on a private job, he could show off in front of the bosses above him.
Who would have thought that several brothers would be injured.
There are few jobs that the boss allows him to take, so he dare not force himself to do it. If too many people are injured, he will be in trouble.
"Let's go."
Two men helped the injured man up and carried the lifeless man away. They disappeared into the woods and soon disappeared.
Shen Yunyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She really didn't want to fight head-on, because no one in the Shen family was capable of fighting.
"Yun Yue. Your mother fainted." Shen Zhou hurriedly shouted.
"Put it on the carriage."
"Sister-in-law, come and give me a hand." Shen Zhoushi called to Shen Lushi, and together they lifted Mo Yiran onto the carriage.
Mr. Shen and his two brothers got out of the car and walked together.
The refugees in the surrounding area originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits, but now the benefits are gone.
His hungry eyes fell on the carriage.
Some people even licked their lips unconsciously and looked at Shen Yunzheng and the others motionlessly.
What a lively little guy.
It must taste good.
Shen Yunzheng shuddered and hid behind Shen Yuncheng. He poked his head out, deliberately making himself look fierce and cute. "Look at me again and I'll hit you."
Those refugees became even more greedy.
"Miss, please be kind. Can you give us some steamed bread?"
"Uncle, if you have something edible, please give me some."
"No, nothing. Can't you see we are exiled commoners? How can we have food to eat?" Shen Yunyue looked at those people impatiently, not missing their eyes staring at the children.
Someone sneered with envy:
"How many other children do you have?"
"What does it have to do with you that we have children? If you dare to have any such idea, I will gouge out your eyes." Shen Yunyue retorted fiercely, with the same ferocious aura as an angry lioness.
The refugees had witnessed Shen Yunyue's ruthlessness and were afraid of the crossbow in her hand, so they didn't dare to say anything.
Just keep swallowing their saliva.
"Miss Shen, let's go." Monkey didn't dare to relax for a moment.
"Okay, let's go find a place to stay."
The group left here quickly.
As we head south, there will be more and more refugees.
After walking for more than two hours, it was getting dark. They still didn't encounter any inhabited areas, but they did encounter a group of refugees traveling with them.
It is said that it is in a village more than a hundred miles away from here.
The locust plague left everyone without food, and after the autumn harvest, grain and taxes were forcibly collected.
Many people could not bear it any longer. They heard that there were many noble families in Jinyang Prefecture, so they all rushed to Jinyang Prefecture. As a result, they ran out of food on the way.
Those people thought Monkey and Xiao Liuzi were officials.
Follow them not far away.
I didn't steal anything or beg, I just followed them to find a sense of security.
The monkey adjusted the reins and took a few quick steps.
"Miss Chen. It's getting dark. Let's camp outdoors." Monkey regretted it at this moment. He should have waited for Peng Scarface and others there.
"Okay, let's take a look in the woods." Ah Si said.
After another mile, the sun was barely visible. The sounds of wild animals could be heard in the distance, and no one dared to go any further.
There is an open space on a higher ground next to it, and the mountain wall is connected to the open space.
There is also a cave next to it.
“There’s a cave.”
Ah Si took the lead and entered the cave, and Shen Yunyue followed quickly.
The other members of the Shen family also started running.
When the refugees behind heard that there was a cave, they all ran away.
The cave is first come, first served, and no one wants to freeze to death outside.
The cave is not big, but it is large enough to accommodate sixty or seventy people.
The Shen family and their officials numbered less than thirty people, but there were probably hundreds of villagers following them.
Yingfeng whipped his horse whip quickly, and they were the first to grab a good position. Near the south side of the cave entrance, Ah Si had blocked off an area with wooden sticks.
The rest of the refugees arrived here.
They didn't mind seeing that Ah Si was occupying the position at the entrance of the cave, as they preferred the position inside.
"Hey, you guys are too much of a bully."
"Your place is so big, you can't just lie down and sleep at night, right?"
"Right. You're only about thirty people. Why do you need such a large space to sit?"
The people behind couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Shen Yunyue narrowed her eyes and glanced at them coldly.
"What's wrong with us just lying down and sleeping? First come, first served. Or we can talk with our fists."
Seeing that she was just a little girl and had never seen Shen Yunyue kill anyone, a maid from the other side thought she was easy to bully and squeezed out from the crowd.
He spitted and said:
"Shameless little thing. You have no right to speak here, and you are so young and don't know how to care for the elderly."
The old woman pointed to the innermost part of the Shen family's house and said with a curled lip:
"I'm old, give me this place."
Shen Yunyue: .... Why are there so many people who deserve a beating? Anyone with a little sense wouldn't dare talk to her like that.
"No. Sit somewhere else."
"It's all packed inside. You can't let me sit outside, can you?"
Shen Yunyue pointed to the cave entrance outside to the south and chuckled:
"We can't sit here either. We need to warm ourselves by the fire."
"Then where do we sit?" The old woman looked around and saw that there was no place for them. They had to stay outside under the mountain wall.
"Where you sit is your business, it's none of my business." Shen Yunyue was playing with a cold dagger in her hand.
Ah Si had already laid thatch on the ground.
He then put a mattress on top of the thatch and carried Fu Xuanheng down and placed him on the mattress.
"Miss Yue. Monkey and I are going for a walk in the woods." Ah Si held a short knife in his hand and had a bamboo arrow on his back.
Shen Yunyue nodded, "Be careful."
After Ah Si and Monkey left.
Several strong villagers also left with him.
Yingfeng said something to Xiao Liuzi, and he went to fetch water with two wooden buckets.
The remaining refugees looked at the people from the Shen family.
What to do if you feel jealous?
Fu Xuanheng sat crookedly on the mattress, holding a handful of bamboo arrows. In his right hand, he was also playing with a dagger, which was the Swiss Army knife given to him by Shen Yunyue.
Xiao Liuzi and Shen Citong were digging a hole.
