Someone shouted "Charge!" and instantly the crowd rioted and rushed forward.
Tang Youyou was very excited, "Fellow villagers, let's play whack-a-mole today!"
I saw her rushing out, waving her stick wildly, wailing, cursing, crying and shouting one after another, the scene was in chaos.
Butcher Zhang's eyes lit up when he saw this. He turned around and looked at the stunned villagers, "What are you standing there for? Let's go, it's time to act..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward and punched and kicked the man who was covering his chest. He was not stupid enough to kill someone in public.
Seeing this, the villagers followed suit, as if the blood in their hearts suddenly boiled, and each of them was filled with strength.
Seeing this, the refugees behind them immediately ran away.
Tang Youyou grabbed the collar of Huoya and slapped him several times.
Huoya's eyes were full of stars and he looked like he was about to faint.
"Tell me... where are you from? Nanzhou, what exactly happened in Qingshui County?"
Huoya closed his eyes and his body collapsed.
"Pa pa pa pa" a few more slaps woke the man up.
She shook her hands. It was so tiring to hit someone!
Huoya slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing who it was, his mouth pursed and he was about to cry out.
"Pa!" Another slap.
"Dare to cry? I'll pull out all your teeth!"
"Auntie, I'm blind and don't recognize you. Please spare me!" He cursed her in his heart and vowed to chop her into pieces and feed her to the dogs!
"Tell me, what happened?"
He hesitated for a few breaths and said, "There are more than 10,000 of us refugees who were rejected when we arrived in Nanzhou. We had no choice but to blend in with the disaster victims and snatch our way into the city!"
"What? Over 10,000 refugees? You're rioting? So how many victims are there?"
Huoya shook his head. "We don't know the exact number, but we are the first batch, and there will be many more to come."
Tang Youyou was puzzled. Wasn't it said that it could only accommodate 50,000 people? What was wrong with this prefect? How could he allow such a riot to happen? What was the purpose of the government's military force?
Seeing her frowning in thought, Huoya slowly stood up and ran away.
With a "whoosh", his calf felt pain and he flew out.
Seeing this, two people quickly picked him up and ran away.
She quickly caught the last man, and it was exactly the same as what the gap-toothed man had said. She crippled his calf and then let him go.
Seeing this, the men lying on the ground stood up and limped forward.
The villagers were about to chase after him, but Tang Youyou hurriedly stopped them: "Don't chase after a desperate enemy, be careful of a trap!"
He looked at Butcher Zhang and said, "Brother Zhang, take your men and hold this place! Shout if anything happens!"
Butcher Zhang felt extremely honored and patted his chest: "Don't worry, sister, leave it to me!"
Then twenty men stayed behind, and the others followed her back to the village.
She told the village chief about the situation and said, "Send people up the mountain to dig up the thorn traps and bring them back to block the road to the village. From now on, we will send people to patrol every night."
"Ah... these damned refugees are so unscrupulous! Sister, you shouldn't have stopped us just now. Let them be beaten to a pulp!"
The village chief angrily scolded: "We are good citizens. Even if they are refugees, we cannot kill them at will. Do you want to go to jail?"
The man scratched his head. He just wanted to show off his power, but he didn't want to kill anyone.
"Alas... right now, each family has only enough food to last them five or six days at most, and I wonder what's happening in the county town? What should we do?"
The village chief frowned. "More than 10,000 refugees, not counting the victims of the disaster. We're sixty miles from Nanzhou, and if they can make it here, then the situation in the nearby counties must be bad. Furthermore, the plague has broken out again, and the danger is lurking everywhere! We absolutely cannot go to the county towns!"
Everyone sighed and lamented, this was really one crisis after another.
An elder suddenly became alert. "There are over 10,000 refugees, but today there are only over a hundred of them. They've suffered so much today. If they retaliate, what will we do?"
"Yes, they look fearless. What if they join forces with other refugees to deal with us?"
The village chief looked at the army and said, "There's no time to lose! Hurry up and bring your men up the mountain to dig up the thorn traps. The more the better!"
Upon hearing this, the army ran out without stopping for a moment.
Tang Youyou looked at the sky. It was covered with dark clouds and less than half of the roofs in the village were covered.
"Village chief, please have someone put up the tiles first and get everyone inside. The weather doesn't seem right!"
The elder of the clan stroked his beard and looked up at the sky. "Yes, there is rain in the sky, and there is even wind blowing now!"
So everyone did their own job, and the adults were basically laying tiles on the roof, and there were not enough ladders.
The old man and the child packed their things. Fortunately, there were not many things and they only took a quarter of an hour to move everything into the house.
"Boom!" Lightning and thunder.
The man on the roof couldn't help but shudder.
Someone yelled, "The rain is coming, come down quickly!"
“But it’s not finished yet!”
The village chief shouted: "Everyone come down, we will build it after the rain stops."
"Crash!" The heavy rain soaked everyone to the bone.
"What should we do? The army is still on the mountain!"
All I had left along the way were some farm tools and personal belongings, nothing like oil paper or a straw raincoat. It was raining so heavily that I couldn't see anything within ten meters.
Tang Youyou and her family sat under the eaves, listening to the sound of dripping rain, feeling irritated and irritated.
"If only God could give us another day, the rain came too suddenly." Lin Huahua complained.
There are five rooms in her house, one of which is a main room, and four bedrooms. One room belongs to Bai Ruoyi and her husband, one room belongs to the three brats, one room belongs to Tang Youyou, and one room belongs to Xue'er.
