Chapter 23 The Man in Black
Lu Jinnian patted his little sister and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm at home. I'll be at home all the time."
She had already made up her mind to wait until it snowed before going in or out of the mountain.
At that time, people outside would not easily go up the mountain because of the heavy snow, but it didn't matter to Lu Jinnian.
She was not afraid of snow, and she was familiar with the surroundings. As long as the family was safe, she could go out without worry.
But when it snowed, it was very difficult for them to have no cotton-padded jackets.
It was impossible to let the younger brother and sister stay at home all the time in the winter, that would be like keeping them in captivity.
Thinking of this, she said, "Starting tomorrow, you will make coats with the nitrated skins, which can also keep out the cold in winter."
Lu Jinxin knew all these things, so there was no need to worry.
The next morning, Lu Jinnian chopped firewood nearby, while her sister made clothes at home, and her brother followed her to carry firewood.
There was food at home, but not enough firewood. I don't know how cold this winter will be, so before the snow falls, more firewood must be prepared.
In addition, the outside of the shack also needs to be covered with a layer of loess to resist the wind, otherwise it will be too cold.
Just as she was walking back with firewood on her back, several men in black rushed out of the woods.
They met face to face, staring at each other.
Lu Jinnian: ...
Wearing black in broad daylight? And wearing a mask? Isn't this just like stealing a bell while covering one's ears? It will only attract more attention!
It was obvious that the other party didn't expect that there would be anyone here. Looking at the shack not far away, they knew that they were living here this time.
Lu Jinnian saw someone behind them carrying someone on his back. It looked like a woman because she was wearing pink clothes.
She didn't say anything, nor did she leave. The people on the opposite side didn't know what to do.
Because they said there were no houses nearby when they came, so they walked this way.
After a stalemate for a while, another man in black rushed out of the woods.
But this person didn't wear a headscarf. His black and shiny hair was tossed, and a pair of phoenix eyes and a pair of sword-like eyebrows were revealed on the black face scarf.
Why should he hide his face? Just show his face.
"What's wrong?" He looked at the black-clad man in the lead.
The black-clad man replied, "There are people here, we..."
Are they going to kill people to silence them?
He didn't say the last sentence, but Lu Jinnian on the opposite side heard it.
"Hey, is it okay for you to say that? I'm still here." Although Lu Jinnian said it lightly, she was already uneasy in her heart.
Because superpowers are different from martial arts, even if she doesn't understand martial arts, she knows that it is different from modern martial arts.
She is just strong and doesn't understand martial arts at all. If she really faces so many people trying to silence her, I'm afraid her whole family will have to be involved.
"Brother..." Lu Jinxin ran out, holding her hand, his face full of uneasiness.
The man opposite frowned slightly and said, "This little brother, we are in some trouble and want to borrow a place to rest. Is that okay?"
Unexpectedly, he avoided talking about silencing people, but instead said he wanted to borrow a place?
Lu Jinnian looked at him, calculating his chances of winning.
Probably only one percent...
"Okay, but my house is just a shack." She pointed to the yard not far away, where there was only a broken shack.
Seeing this shack, the man's eyes flashed with surprise.
He thought it was a nest built by some animal.
"It's okay, we'll leave after a rest." The man didn't mind.
Hearing this, Lu Jinnian nodded, "Then follow me."
After that, she led Lu Jinxin and walked in front to lead the way.
