Chapter 206: Escape at Night



Inside the camp, no one dared to breathe, and everyone was waiting anxiously.

Some people wanted to ask, but did not dare to make a sound.

The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, accompanied by wind and rain.

Yang Dashan, Li Rui, Wan Sanye and others were the first to notice someone approaching, and everyone picked up their weapons.

"It's me." Su Yin said.

Hearing the familiar voice, the people in the tent felt relieved.

Yang Dashan hurried out and Su Yin walked quickly into the tent.

When the people in the camp heard the news that Su Yin had returned, they all started to move, eager to inquire about the situation.

"Don't talk yet, and change into dry clothes."

Su Yin walked into the tent where the women were resting and immediately changed out of her clothes.

After changing clothes, Su's mother handed her a cup of hot ginger tea and said, "Drink a cup of ginger tea to drive away the cold first."

"Um."

Su Yin drank the bowl of ginger tea in one gulp.

"Mom, you all should get ready. We may have to leave this place soon."

The aunts in the tent were shocked when they heard this.

"Yinyin, why do you still want to leave?"

"Is Yinyin in a bad condition?"

"Why are you leaving?"

In response to their questions, Su Yin did not elaborate.

"You guys get ready first, we'll talk about the details later."

Su Yin came out from the women's side and walked to the tent on the left. As soon as she entered the tent, she noticed that the head of each family was here, so she didn't have to call them over.

She quickly recounted what she had seen.

"Although we don't know why the two groups are fighting, they certainly don't want others to know. And we are not far away. If we are discovered by them, I'm afraid our lives will be in danger."

The reason why she threw the body off the cliff was to buy time for everyone to leave.

Once they find the body, they will definitely discover the real cause of death of that person.

By then, the group of men in black will definitely search this area.

The traces of their camp here cannot be erased. What you think you have erased may be a loophole in the eyes of an expert.

Su Yin never underestimates anyone, so for everyone's safety, they must leave here as soon as possible.

Now she could only pray that the group would look for the man's body later.

The later they find the body, the safer they will be.

The sooner the bodies are found, the more dangerous they are.

These people are always willing to kill to silence people, and preventing the news from leaking out is a disaster for them.

In short, they were brought into trouble without cause.

No, you are in danger.

Regardless, you are still in danger.

This confirms a saying on the Internet in later generations: in this cannibalistic feudal society and dynasty, it was very difficult for civilians to survive and leave offspring.

In this world, apart from natural disasters, there are also man-made disasters, and there will always be one that will leave you without any descendants.

Others were not aware of the inside story, but Master Wan San knew that the group of people in navy blue clothes was aiming to find the treasure map.

The other group of people that have appeared now must have the same goal. Once the treasure map is involved, whoever gets involved will die.

Even if people like them who strayed in pose no threat to them, in order to keep the secret, they would definitely choose the safest method of killing them to silence them and prevent future troubles.

So, they have to go.

"I saw someone running away, and many people went to hunt him down. Once they catch him, they will definitely come back to check and investigate. If they see us at that time, we will definitely be killed."

Master Wan San looked serious and said, "Leave quickly."

No matter how difficult it is to walk on a rainy night, we cannot stay in this place.

People rarely saw Master Wan San and Su Yin looking so solemn, and their hearts were pounding.

"Let's go, let's go now."

Su Yin looked at the people from Lijia Village and said, "Put your food on other people's carriages."

"good."

Torches were lit, and everyone in the camp began to pack up under the cover of night.

Everyone knew the situation was urgent, so they packed up faster than usual.

Zhang Bingliang asked, "Do you want to erase the traces of camping here?"

"No need." Su Yin refused directly.

Li Rui was puzzled. "Why not? If we erase all traces, they won't know we exist, right?"

Li Rui is not the only one who is puzzled. Most people don't understand the reason behind this.

Master Wan San said, "It's no use."

Su Yin nodded, "First, we cut wood to build the tent, and the traces of cutting cannot be erased. Second, the traces on the stone wall cannot be erased. Third, the axle marks and traces of setting up the tent here, no matter how you erase them, you can't make it exactly the same as before."

"You are trying to cover up the traces by erasing them, which only makes you look guilty and gives people the impression that you are trying to hide something."

"Once they have a preconceived idea, no matter what we say afterwards, they won't believe it."

"Instead of doing that, it is better to let them know openly that a group of people once camped here."

Of course, there is a more important point. Once they think that this group of people are so meticulous in their work, they may think of other things. It would be terrible if they think that someone among them killed the leading man.

Although this association is somewhat bold and even far-fetched, there is no guarantee that other people will come up with this idea.

"Now the rain has not stopped. After the rain washes away, the mud and water will naturally cover it. It will be more difficult for them to distinguish whether the people who camped here were before they came or today."

"If you cover up the truth, they will definitely figure out that the group of people set up camp tonight."

“This is even more dangerous.”

The mountain road is particularly difficult to travel on rainy nights, but no matter how difficult it is, they have to go.

It took a whole stick of incense to get from the mountain to the mountain road. After reaching the mountain road, Su Yin walked in front to lead the way.

Everyone was busy on their way and no one spoke.

On the way to the wooden house, everyone smelled a strong smell of blood. Even with the rain, it still couldn't cover up the bloodbath that took place here.

The people in Lijia Village were somewhat excited when they saw the horses.

Everyone in Xinghua Village had horses, even the Zhang and Zhou families had horses. But the people in Li Village were the worst off. They only had two cows, and the rest of the things had to be pulled by human power on carts.

They also wanted horses, and now seeing these horses without anyone, they were naturally tempted.

"Should we take those horses away?" asked Li's uncle.

Everyone in the Li family was very excited about this proposal, but Li Rui suppressed his desire and said, "I'll go ask Su Yin."

They thought more carefully than I did. If they took the horses and caused trouble, wouldn't that implicate everyone?

Before they could ask, Master Wan San came over first.

"Li Rui, bring a few people with me."

"Fatty, where are you going?"
