The officer yelled a few words in disgust, and the rest of the people burst into laughter at what Old Lady Shen and the others said.
They are indeed a bunch of ignorant people who are so surprised even by a portrait.
It is said that the Prince of Wuding himself is a very handsome man, and those in the royal family are all better than these peasants.
Old Mrs. Shen and the others forced an awkward smile and then walked in quickly.
They couldn't stay here for even a second, their hearts were pounding.
The crowd walked into the city with weak legs and feet, and sure enough, they saw another group of people sitting not far away in front of them.
There was also a long queue there, which were refugees coming in from outside the city and asking about some matters related to settlement.
Old Mrs. Shen was still being supported by Fei Yanche. Her legs and feet were very weak. If Fei Yanche hadn't been holding her up, she would have collapsed to the ground at the city gate.
The Song and Zhao families were not in much better condition either, and they all supported each other as they moved forward.
As they walked, they had to pay attention to what was happening behind them, for fear that the officers holding the portraits would notice something was wrong and arrest them.
Old Mrs. Shen said in a trembling voice, "I can't do it anymore. My legs are so weak. Xiao Che, please help me get on the bus."
Fei Yanche felt like laughing and was touched. He obediently helped Old Lady Shen to the ox cart and let her sit on it.
Old Madam Shen sat down and said, "Why don't we get out of the city through another gate? I feel uneasy."
Everyone subconsciously glanced at Fei Yanche.
Mr. Shen also glanced at Fei Yanche and continued, "Let's get some information in the city and then we'll leave."
Everyone responded, but couldn't help but glance at Fei Yanche.
They have a lot of questions in their minds, but now is not the time to ask them.
It's already the end of the Shen hour, so if they want to leave the city today, they have to speed up.
Otherwise, once the city gates are closed, they will have to go out tomorrow.
But after what happened in front of the city gate, they didn't want to stay in this city.
If they leave the city, they may still be able to see tomorrow's sun, but in this city, they don't know which will come first, the accident or tomorrow.
There was a row of beggars sitting not far from the city gate. When they saw someone coming in from outside the city gate, they would come forward and ask if they wanted to lead the way.
Shen Yu'an and the others saw a tall beggar push a smaller beggar aside, walk up to a person who had just entered the city, and walk away with that person with a smile.
The little beggar lowered his head in frustration. Suddenly he saw them and walked up to them carefully and asked, "Do you need a guide? I know this city very well. I can take you wherever you want to go. All you need to do is give me a steamed bun."
Shen Yuan looked at the ragged little beggar and asked calmly, "We want to get some information. If you have any information to tell us, we will still give you steamed buns."
The little beggar's eyes lit up when he heard Shen Yu'an's words. He was guarding the city gate all day and knew the most information.
"I know. I can tell you the news."
The little beggar blah blah told everything he knew, for fear that Shen Yu'an and the others would be dissatisfied.
After saying this, he looked at them eagerly. Shen Yu'an nodded with satisfaction, took out a small string of copper coins from his arms and put them in the little beggar's hands.
The little beggar was surprised by the weight in his hand. He looked down and found that they were copper coins, and there seemed to be dozens of them.
He glanced at Shen Yu'an cautiously, and when he saw that she had not taken the wrong thing, he quickly put it in his arms and looked around.
The little beggar was basically surrounded by the Shen family, so the people outside did not see Shen Yu'an giving the little beggar copper coins.
Shen Yu'an got the information he wanted and left the little beggar.
The little beggar stood there in a daze, unable to recover. He just said some things that everyone knew, and he got so many benefits.
Shen Yu'an took two steps forward and saw some people looking at the little beggar.
She said in a loud voice, deliberately sarcastically: "For the things you said, you still want two steamed buns, one is to look up to you."
After saying that, he took a multi-grain steamed bun from the ox cart and threw it to the little beggar with a look of disgust.
The Shen family didn't understand why Shen Yu'an suddenly said this when he had clearly given the little beggar copper coins just now.
But they soon found out, and the prying eyes around them withdrew.
The little beggar looked at Shen Yu'an with gratitude, then hugged the steamed bun in his arms and ran away quickly.
Shen Yu'an retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go too."
The little beggar was indeed not talking nonsense. The information he told them was enough for them to understand the drug production here, so there was no need for them to stay in the city any longer.
This county town was only a hundred miles away from the provincial capital, so they did not buy anything else.
However, it took almost an hour, and by the time we arrived at the other city gate, it was almost the end of the You hour (7pm).
It was already October and it was getting dark soon, so they left the city before the gates closed.
The soldiers guarding the city gate were very puzzled by this. Even if they didn't want to settle here, there was no need to leave in such a hurry.
However, the Shen family and their group had no idea what they were thinking, and they did not dare to stop after leaving Huashan County.
With the faint light from the sky, we walked a few more miles before we found a place to stop.
After they left the city, they didn't see any more pedestrians. After all, all the refugees who could make it here stopped in Huashan County.
After finding a sheltered place, the Shen family members surrounded Fei Yanche without even having time to set up a tent.
