Chen Li sighed deeply, holding the horse's belly and walked to the side of Chen Changshan who was driving the mule cart, "Dad, something small might happen later."
Shen Changshan turned his head to look at his daughter. He came to remind her specifically, so it couldn't be a small matter.
What's going to happen soon is definitely going to be big!
"Ali, can Dad ask, how big is this matter and how many people are involved?"
"Well, it's pretty much the same thing as the last time we encountered a robbery where they blocked the road and set up checkpoints. As for the people," Chen Li pointed at the team in front, "Look, there are dozens more of them."
Shen Changshan subconsciously tightened the reins in his hands. Is this a small matter?
“Wheeze~”
The mule cried out in pain, and Shen Changshan finally let go of some of his strength.
"Ali, can we not go over there? We can just wait at the back for those people in front to pass through first."
Lin Cuicui also heard the conversation between the father and daughter, and pointed to the team in front.
Although this approach is somewhat unkind, it is better for such a big thing to happen to someone else than to yourself.
"Maybe not. They've already seen us on the hill over there. If we don't go with them, they'll come after them to rob those people."
Shen Changshan understood what Shen Li meant, "Then why not rush over together while there are more people, and reduce some casualties."
"Uh-huh."
That’s right, that’s what Chen Li thought.
Moreover, after their team had gone through so many attacks, the water from each family was firmly fixed on the cart and could not be moved easily.
Only a very few foolish people, such as the unlucky Yang Chunyan family, are exceptions.
Shen Changshan handed the reins to Lin Cuicui and asked her to take the mule first. "Then I'll go inform my brother-in-law and the village chief."
"OK."
There was someone watching on the hill over there, so Chen Li released his mental power and put that person into eternal sleep.
They didn't speak loudly, and Shen Jingyuan and the others behind them only heard a rough outline of what they said. Based on what they heard, they could guess what it was about.
Chen Li went to talk to her three brothers again, and at the end she did not forget to instruct Xu Taohua and Lu Nian in the carriage.
"Sister-in-law, please don't get off the car later."
Xu Taohua was a little scared, but thinking of her sister-in-law's abilities and her family's current strength, she couldn't let them down, so she nodded in agreement.
"Little sister, I understand."
Lu Nian also said softly, "Sister, I will be obedient."
"Um."
Chen Li lowered the carriage curtain and continued riding forward.
It would take them about a quarter of an hour to get there, so the team had plenty of time to prepare. It was better to be prepared than not.
After hearing what Shen Changshan said, Lin Hu and Lin Kun's brows were furrowed into a 川 shape. The four half-grown teenagers next to them were already looking for suitable weapons on the cart.
Shen Changshan said a few simple words and quickly went to the front to find Shen Zhenyuan.
Lin Hu looked at his old father and mother and said, "Dad, Mom, I'll take you to my younger sister later."
Otherwise, he was afraid that chaos would arise and he and his son would not be able to take care of their parents.
Lin Biao nodded and said, "Okay, we are old and we won't cause you any trouble!"
Shen Zhenyuan looked at the hillside and refugees not far ahead with a worried look on his face, but he also understood that what Shen Changshan said was the best plan. Otherwise, if they relied on themselves alone and confronted those people, it would only be worse.
"Changshan, Yanshan, the two of you should quickly inform everyone to prepare and do your best to protect the children, water and food at home."
"Well, Dad, I'll go and notify the others."
Shen Yanshan hurriedly left with his son. Shen Changshan looked at Shen Zhenyuan, who had aged a lot, and said, "Fourth Uncle, don't walk in front later. Go to my mule cart."
"No need, Changshan. Fourth uncle knows your good intentions. Go and get busy."
Shen Zhengyuan understood that Shen Changshan was worried about him, but as the head of the village, he was the one who could not retreat at this time.
There was a brief panic in the team, but it soon calmed down. They had experienced a lot along the way and had been robbed more than once or twice.
There was no major loss each time, which led to an inexplicable sense of confidence among them.
When the old Shen family heard the news, they wanted to drive the ox cart to Shen Changshan and his family immediately. During this period of time, they also knew that everyone in the eldest brother's family was very powerful.
It must be the safest to be with them!
However, they were at the back of the team and couldn't get to the front even if they wanted to.
Shen Changshan slowed down the team's pace a little, and many refugees overtook them.
The closer she got to the hill, the more faint a scent lingered at the tip of Chen Li's nose, and she could still smell it even when she was wearing a mask.
It was not until she got closer that Chen Li remembered what it smelled like!
This is the stench of a rotting corpse!
It seems that those people have killed a lot of people during this period, which is why the smell is so strong.
Chen Li put another mask on her face. It was a pity that there was no way to go around here, otherwise she really didn't want to pass through there.
Looking around, I saw that everyone in my family was wearing a mask. Even my grandfather and his family, although they felt a little hot, still listened to Chen Li's words and put on the mask obediently.
Other people in the team may not understand the purpose of wearing masks now, but it doesn’t matter, they will understand it soon.
When they entered the valley, they heard chaotic noises coming from the front. After they had completely entered the valley, the noises became more and more obvious.
There were intermittent shouts of fighting, killing, and cries for help and mercy from the front.
