Chapter 24: Silencing the Witnesses
The two brothers in the yard stood in front of the fence, staring at those people with a vigilant look.
The man carried the girl in pink clothes into the shack, and frowned when he saw the simple bed.
Then he put it away, called out to the people outside, and whispered a few words.
"Yes!"
"Let's go!"
The man in black waved his hand, and several people left.
Looking at them as if the wind was under his feet, Lu Jinnian's eyes flashed with a complicated look.
It seems that if the other party wants to silence them, they probably can't escape.
Thinking of this, she was very unconvinced, but the reality is like this.
Originally thought that it would be better to go to this ancient time, but now it seems that she is still too naive.
If those people want to silence them, she can run away and hide in the space, but what about her younger brother and sister?
She looked at her uneasy younger brother and sister next to her, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
If it really comes to that, she will drag her younger brother and sister into the space, and then go far away.
In ancient times, communication was poor, and it would not be easy to find them in a haystack.
"Hey so-and-so, come here!"
In the shack, the man looked at Lu Jinnian and spoke. It was obvious that "that so-and-so" was referring to her.
"What for?" Lu Jinnian walked over and looked at him.
That so-and-so, I'm your father!
She held back her anger and at least didn't lose it, which was considered a good temper.
The man seemed not to see her hostility and said directly: "Go get some water and boil some water for me."
After that, he closed the door of the shack.
Is he treating them like maids?
Lu Jinnian gritted his teeth, then turned around to get water.
They had a wooden barrel, so they usually used this barrel to get water.
After getting the water, the man closed the door again.
Lu Jinnian looked at his brothers and sisters, then pulled them out for a distance.
At this time, Lu Jinxin said uneasily: "Brother, what should we do? I think they are bad people."
Not like bad people, but they are bad people.
The other brothers also nodded, thinking that those people were not good people, and they occupied their shacks.
Lu Jinnian nodded and said: "Let's go to the mountains now. I'm afraid they have bad intentions."
Since the man can't take care of them now, let's go first.
Hearing her words, the brothers and sisters agreed and followed her.
But after walking a few steps, Lu Jinxin said: "Brother, what should we do with the things at home?"
There is a pot in the house, firewood collected for half a month outside, and a newly built courtyard wall...
These are all things they are reluctant to leave behind, after all, they are accumulated bit by bit.
"It doesn't matter." Lu Jinnian said with a smile: "If the things are gone, we can get them again, but if our lives are gone, then we really have nothing."
There is no need to worry about running out of firewood!
Anyway, there is space, and they will not starve to death.
With her comfort, the brothers and sisters didn't say anything else, and followed Lu Jinnian step by step to the back mountain.
In the shack, the man looked at the direction they left but did not stop them.
He had inner strength, so he naturally noticed that the children had left.
But now was not the time to worry about these children. He looked at the little girl on the bed, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes.
"Good job, you dare to kidnap my sister..."
He gritted his teeth, and no one could detect his thoughts.
After a while, a few people came back from outside, and they had some more things in their hands.
Several people spread the newly bought quilts, and took out other things, especially the most important medicinal materials, and dealt with them quickly.
This is the first time I write ancient Chinese, so don't worry about some coins and the like. This is a fictional article.
