"Sister Lian, don't be angry. Let's find a chance to retaliate."
"Yes, yes. There aren't many of them. We can catch them off guard."
Xiaolian also thought of something and snorted, "You idiots, why do you need me to tell you? Don't I know it?"
The big men standing below were angry but dared not say anything, and lowered their heads to hide the anger on their faces.
Xiaolian also knew that they did not obey her, but it didn’t matter, as long as they were obedient.
She pointed at one of them with her delicate hand and said, "You, go inform the Third Master and the others that a group of fat sheep will be passing by in the next two days and they must not be let go."
The person she called out nodded silently and walked out of the room.
He glanced at the people in the room and said, "Get out."
Several big men turned around and walked out without looking back, not forgetting to close the door. After walking out of the house, they looked at each other with sinister eyes.
Xiaolian curled her red lips. She was so ungrateful. Then let them all stay here!
This place is called Dapan Mountain. They are not locals and don’t know it. There is a group of bandits in Dapan Mountain called Panshan Village. They have been entrenched here for decades. The imperial court has sent troops to suppress them several times, but they have never been wiped out.
The reason why Xiaolian was able to scare these men in the village was because she had hooked up with the third in command of Dapan Mountain, so she had the capital to be arrogant.
Originally, she was also abducted to the mountain. Unlike other women, she did not quickly accept her fate and captured the third in command of Panshan Village.
So, when someone was needed to investigate the situation at the foot of the mountain, Xiaolian volunteered.
After that, this small village with only more than 10 households was destroyed by Panshanzhai and became a bandit den of Panshanzhai.
Panshan Village has a large population. After decades of reproduction, there are now more than 500 strong men.
There are not many other women and children. Boys will be kept in Panshan Village to be trained as bandits, and as for girls, the good-looking ones will be kept or sold.
There are no elderly people in Panshan Village because they think it is a waste of food if they stay in the mountains.
So once they get old, they will be expelled from Panshan Stronghold. In the eyes of these profit-oriented bandits, it is already good enough to keep them alive.
The man today has good martial arts skills, but he is alone. How many people can he defeat?
He is so handsome, and Xiaolian can now imagine what will happen to him if he falls into the hands of Panshan Village.
“Hahaha~”
Hearing Xiaolian's devilish laughter coming from inside, the men outside the house shuddered slightly and left one after another. This woman is getting crazier day by day!
…
On the other side, in the Sanli Village team, He Lai Di's mental state has been a little abnormal since Shen Changyou disappeared for no reason last time, and she often falls into a trance.
Chen Jiaojiao's life was only slightly better than before, but they no longer had an ox cart and now relied entirely on pushing things by hand. However, as a lot of food had been lost, the things on the two carts were now sparsely packed.
After the group passed through the miasma last time, it took them more than ten days to get out of Jingzhou, when the entire team had been short of water for two or three days.
Just when everyone was about to give up, they finally found a water source in Luozhou, which allowed their team to survive.
Although the tasks are still together, they are basically no longer under the management of Shen Liubai.
This manager was unable to support them, let alone lead them to water and food. He was completely useless.
As for reading some books, what’s the use now? You can neither eat nor drink. After seeing through this, no one paid attention to him anymore.
Shen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the green forest. As soon as Shen Changfeng and Shen Wensong brought back the water, she rushed forward, picked up the water scoop, and drank a scoop of water.
"Pah~"
He had only drunk half of the water when He Lai Di slapped him on the back, "Chen Jiaojiao, why are you so anxious? Your father and second brother didn't drink it!"
He ignored her and drank the water in the ladle until the dryness in his throat and the burning sensation in his lungs disappeared, then he turned around.
With a hint of sarcasm, she said, "Second sister-in-law, you don't have to do anything all day. Since Changyou disappeared, what else have you done besides cooking?"
"you……"
He Lai Di's anger instantly skyrocketed after her lung was punctured. She wanted to pounce on Shen Jiaojiao, but was stopped by Shen Wensong and Shen Changfeng.
"Mom, aunt, can you two stop arguing?"
These two have been arguing every day during this period, which has made them feel annoyed. They argue over the same few sentences every day, and they don’t know if they are tired of each other.
The team found water and decided to stop here to rest. Shen Jiaojiao snorted coldly: "Since the second sister-in-law is so stubborn, then don't eat the food I find in the future."
After Shen Jiaojiao finished speaking, she picked up a basket from the cart, turned around and walked into the woods behind her.
Shen Wensong hurried to catch up. Now that Shen Jiaojiao could find food for the family, he wanted to stay with his aunt to protect her. If Shen Jiaojiao also got lost, their family would really have no way to survive.
After He Lai Di was stopped, her body was still shaking and her face had a ferocious expression.
Shen Changfeng glanced at her twice, ignored her, and walked aside to rest with his father.
After He Lai Di took a break and regained consciousness, she realized that she had done something wrong again today.
I clearly said not to quarrel with Shen Jiaojiao anymore, but she could always accurately grasp her pain points, which was obviously intentional.
After coming to their senses, they walked aside to light a fire. Shen Jiaojiao dared to drink water like that, but they didn't dare. They had drunk it before, but they got diarrhea as soon as they drank it. If it happened a few times, they would faint.
From then on, I had to boil water before drinking it.
Shen Jiaojiao walked into the woods carrying a basket. When she heard the footsteps behind her, she knew it was Shen Wensong, but she ignored him.
There were other people in the woods looking for something. After walking for a while, Shen Jiaojiao heard some movement in the grass not far away and walked over lightly.
A pheasant flew out from the bushes and hit a big tree in front, and its body fell limply to the ground.
Shen Jiaojiao went to pick up the dead pheasant, and then found a dozen pheasant eggs in the grass.
Shen Wensong was amazed when he saw this scene. Although it was not the first time he saw it, he was still shocked by his aunt's luck.
She took the initiative to step forward and take the basket. "Aunt, let me take it. My mother is a little crazy because of my brother's matter. Aunt, please don't bother with her."
Shen Jiaojiao snorted, ignored him, and continued to search around, soon finding a small cluster of fresh wild vegetables.
When the two of them were almost done picking, Jiang Huaichuan's mother came over and saw them. Her eyes lit up and she walked over with a twist of her waist.
"Jiaojiao, have you found something good? Let me see it."
The basket that Shen Wensong was carrying was very heavy, and it was obvious that he had found something good.
A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Shen Jiaojiao's mouth. When she was useful, she was Jiaojiao, and when she was useless, she was Miss Shen. It was really realistic!
