Before they knew it, more than two months had passed. Just when the wheat in the fields was ripe and even the potatoes were ready to be harvested, forty or fifty disaster victims suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
These disaster victims were all men. They were emaciated and dressed in rags. When they saw the fields full of crops, they ran into the fields like madmen. They dug and looted, eating what they could raw and cooking what they couldn't eat right there in the fields.
This small village had never seen such a battle before. They were only concerned with protecting their families, keeping their doors and windows closed, hoping that the disaster victims would not target them. As for the grain, they thought, "Forget it, as long as everyone is safe, we can plant more grain later."
But no one expected that, after they had all eaten their fill, their eyes would turn to this seemingly peaceful and beautiful little village.
Since they can still be so carefree, it means they still have food stored at home, right? These days, it's not just grain that you can eat!
They all had fierce glints in their eyes, exchanged glances, and, regardless of whether they had finished eating or not, threw their food on the ground and walked together into the village.
Ye Shuang's divine sense had been monitoring this group of people. After realizing their purpose, she became angry. How dare these ignorant mortals set their sights on this small village?
But now is not the time to make a move. Li Mantian and Li Shi are paying close attention to the situation outside. Although she is hiding in her own small bedroom, it is not easy for her to go out.
Bai Xue seemed to sense the danger as well, and got up to protect Ye Shuang.
The group walked straight into the village, and groups of four or five knocked on each door.
"Hey, is there any food left? Please, give us some!"
"Open the door! Have pity on us!"
"Hey, hurry up and throw the grain out, otherwise I'll be eating more than just grain once I get inside! Hehehe..."
...
With that nonchalant tone, those commanding words, and all those pointed remarks, these people were no longer beggars; they were clearly a pack of wolves and tigers, a band of bandits!
Ye Shuang clenched her fists, and a surge of anger slowly burned in her heart. The group of people outside had already broken down the door of a house. The family had a well-behaved and lovely daughter. Ye Shuang often took the girl with her when she went up the mountain because she thought she was cute, just so she could give her more food!
But the people who barged in looked at the kind, honest couple and the adorable little girl and smiled maliciously.
"Please, please let us go! I'm willing to bring out everything edible in my house!" The man was starting to beg for mercy. His family were honest farmers who only knew how to farm and didn't even know how to hunt.
The woman hid behind the man, trying her best to conceal her daughter from them.
But how could these bandits be so easily dealt with? They were all half-open in their clothes and covered in filth, but they didn't seem to care at all, and walked in step by step with sly smiles.
"ah!"
"Ah—please, please let me go! Please let me go!"
Screams rang out one after the other. The man was kicked aside, while the woman was pulled up. Several people surrounded the woman, and one of the men strode forward and grabbed the little girl under his arm, completely ignoring her crying and fussing.
"Hey, look! This girl's so young, she must taste amazing!"
