They were so hungry that their backs were sticking to their chests and their legs were sore. Usually at this time, they would have stopped to rest and eat steamed bread.
But today, time for rest seems far away.
From time to time they turned back to look at the three people who were eating happily while sitting on the shaft of the cart.
The prisoners couldn't hide the jealousy in their eyes. They stared at Feng Jiuyan and the others with red eyes, and their eyeballs almost popped out.
Humph, everyone has food to eat!
They also have a few steamed buns in their bags that they saved up some time ago... well, what's there to be proud of!
The horse-faced woman and her close friends couldn't help swallowing when they saw Feng Jiuyan and the other two, but their eyes were filled with disdain.
Just boiled eggs and multi-grain steamed buns!
In their bags were some dried meat, cakes, preserved fruits and other things they had bought in town, as well as some game they had hunted in the mountains last night.
What are you so proud of!
Humph, I thought other families had no food, but they had it!
The horse-faced women and the others snorted coldly, their eyes rolled up to the sky.
They had just seen a few refugees rushing towards Feng Jiuyan's donkey cart at all costs in an attempt to steal food. The horse-faced woman and her companions also knew that this was not the time to eat.
If you take out food to eat now, it might be snatched away.
But they really couldn't bear it any longer.
Look, that damn little girl is now munching on a whole-grain steamed bun and looking at them provocatively!
This is really intolerable for the uncle, but unbearable for the aunt! No matter what, there are also officials here, they don’t believe that the refugees dare to rush up and rob!
So, the horse-faced women and the others reached into their bags, took out a large piece of dried meat, put it in their mouths, and chewed it proudly.
Humph, those dead girls are gnawing on boiled eggs and multi-grain steamed buns. They don’t want to eat steamed buns, they want to eat dried meat.
Otherwise, that silly girl always thinks that her family is the richest and that they are so poor that they have to eat grass!
The horse-faced woman and her companions deliberately slowed down their pace, waiting for the arrogant donkey to catch up with them. They also wanted to let the dead girl know their strength and let her see the dried meat in their hands!
Feng Jiuyan curled the corners of his mouth, with a sly glint in his eyes.
Haha, the fish finally took the bait.
Interesting, very interesting!
The horse-faced woman shook the dried meat in her hand, stuffed it into her mouth and took a big bite, "Hmm, so delicious~~~" She closed her eyes, intoxicated.
Several women imitated the horse-faced woman and raised the dried meat in their hands, trying to show off to Feng Jiuyan.
The horse-faced woman glanced at Feng Jiuyan with contempt, "Heh, you silly girl, do you want to eat? Hehe, I won't give you anything even if you want to! I still have plenty here!"
After saying that, the horse-faced woman patted the bag on her back.
The other women followed suit, patting their bags behind them and saying proudly, "Humph, there are plenty!"
They had no idea how brightly the eyes of the refugees who had already set their sights on them were shining.
After showing off, the horse-faced woman walked forward arrogantly with a few of her mentally retarded close friends.
Apart from the exiled people like the horse-faced woman who were jealous of Feng Jiuyan's family, there were also those prisoners who took Feng Jiuyan as their weather vane, and there was only envy in their eyes, not jealousy.
They sighed in their hearts, she was indeed a woman they admired, daring to eat in front of the refugees. They reached out and touched some food in their arms, swallowed their saliva, and finally held back.
They still know their own strengths and weaknesses. They have no martial arts skills and no deterrent power. If they only seek short-term gains, they will be targeted by the refugees and will probably not end up well.
Look, more and more refugees are quietly approaching the horse-faced woman and her companions.
They can't take this risk. They should be low-key. What's more, they are prisoners now!
The group continued to move forward, but due to lack of physical strength, fewer and fewer refugees followed the exile team, and finally only a dozen or so were left.
The exile team turned a corner and saw that the weeds on both sides of the mountain road were very tall, as tall as an adult.
The eyes of the dozen or so refugees flickered, and they looked at each other, seeing each other's intentions in their eyes.
As if they had agreed, they approached the horse-faced woman and her companions in pairs. When the time was right, two of them worked together, one grabbed the bag, and the other pushed the horse-faced woman and her companions to the ground.
Then, using all their strength, they jumped into the tall grass on both sides.
In an instant, their figures disappeared in the weeds on both sides of the road.
The horse-faced woman and several other women cried and tried to chase the dozen refugees, but the weeds were very tall, and they didn't know if there were any snakes, insects, mosquitoes, or ants in them.
While they were hesitating, the refugees had already disappeared.
The horse-faced woman and several other women felt as if the sky was falling. Their whole bodies were limp and they couldn't stand up at all. They wanted to die.
These are the last bits of food in their respective families!
They had promised their husbands that only by doing the opposite could they protect the food. In most of the families of exiled prisoners, the food was basically protected by the young and middle-aged people in the family, but in their families, they asked themselves to keep the food.
But now, all the food has been taken away! What hope is there in life?
Several women with horse faces were sitting on the ground and making a scene. There were even one or two women who were pushed to the ground and were rolling around on the ground.
"Ahhh! Someone is snatching something! Someone is snatching something!"
"Help! These refugees are stealing things. Come and save me!"
"Wow, wow, wow, these are all the food in my house, and they've all been taken away, what should I do?"
“Please, save us, wuwuwu, this is the family’s life-saving food, we can’t lose it, wuwuwuwuwawawa~~”
The horse-faced woman's earth-shaking cry caused all the exiled prisoners to turn around and look.
They stopped walking, and the prisoners and Feng Jiuyan's donkey cart behind them had to stop as well.
The cries of several horse-faced women attracted their husbands.
"Madam, madam, what did you say just now?" The middle-aged man with a big belly walked up to the horse-faced woman and asked anxiously.
"Wow, wow, wow, my husband, the bag was stolen by the refugees."
"What? I was robbed!" The middle-aged man with a big belly couldn't believe it and stared. At this moment, he felt a flash of black and white in front of his eyes, and he felt dizzy, and his body couldn't help falling backwards.
If his son had not been quick enough to catch him, he would have fallen to the ground.
Not only him, but also the husbands of several other women had pale faces and were staggering.
Some couldn't bear the blow and fainted on the ground.
For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic.
The prisoners in front stopped their pace and watched the show with glee.
