Xiao Lingling's ears were surprisingly sharp. Although the sound just now was very small, she could still hear that it was probably footsteps, and there were quite a few of them.
That direction was not far from her. Worried that her family was in danger, she immediately pretended to be impatient and ran to Fang.
Fang originally wanted to tease her, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Xiao Lingling whispering in her ear.
"Don't move, mother. There's someone in the bushes nearby. Bring the food to the table and then hurry back to the tent. I'll call Sister Xue and the others for help."
When Fang heard someone was there, her heart immediately rose to her throat. Seeing Xiao Lingling gently shaking her head at her, she could only suppress the fear in her heart and nodded slightly.
Little Bell then laughed, "Wow, so much food! Mother, take it over first. I'll go call my sister who's still awake over there to come and eat together, okay?"
After saying that, he winked at Fang, who immediately replied, "Oh, okay, then go ahead. Hurry up, or it'll get cold soon."
Fang walked quickly towards the table with the dishes in her hand. When Xiao Lingling saw that she had successfully reached the tent, she turned around and skipped to find her two sisters who were chatting.
Perhaps because they were afraid that more people would come, those hiding people became impatient and rushed out to snatch the food on the table after Fang hid back in the tent.
Little Bell immediately shouted, "Sister! There are bad guys!"
In fact, the people on night watch had discovered them before, and in order to expose their tracks, they deliberately stopped on the other side.
However, they did not expect that Xiao Lingdang and her daughter would suddenly appear, so they gathered together to discuss their future plans.
Now that they saw Fang had hidden herself, they no longer held back and immediately drew their swords and rushed out.
For Xiao Lingling's safety, another person was left to protect her.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Lin. They are just hungry refugees. They won't hurt you."
Little Bell smiled and said, "Thank you, sister, for protecting me."
Looking at Xiao Lingling's chubby face, the girl couldn't help herself and reached out to pinch it gently.
"You're so cute! No wonder Divine Doctor Jiang wants to take you in as his disciple. I almost want to kidnap you and make you my sister."
Xiao Lingling smiled but said nothing. Suddenly, a wolf howled from the other side. She subconsciously shouted, "Jin Bei!"
She turned and pointed in the direction of Jinbei's howling. "Miss, Jinbei has spotted someone over there too! There are quite a few people coming this time, and Jinbei and the others are giving a warning."
Yan Zhi's expression immediately tensed up. "These refugees are really bold!"
She pulled out a whistle from her neck and blew it, and immediately more than a dozen figures rushed out from the surrounding tents.
"The refugees are causing trouble. They must be colluding with each other. There are people coming from more than one direction, including over there. There are a lot of them, so be alert."
In fact, this kind of thing is not easy to deal with, because most of them are ordinary refugees. They come to rob things just because they are extremely hungry. Their crimes are not punishable by death, so it is not easy to kill them.
But if they don't kill them, they can't calm down these crazy people, so they are a little troubled for a while.
Looking at the refugees who were knocked to the ground and were still struggling to grab a bite of food, Xiao Lingling felt a little depressed.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she thought of a solution.
These refugees were not bandits, they just wanted something to eat, and she had plenty of it.
She quickly looked around and saw that everything was in chaos. She took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and quietly found a direction with fewer people and slipped out.
She was short to begin with, and it was late at night, so no one noticed her at all.
She ran out of the camp successfully and ran a few hundred meters directly to a place with fewer people.
After making sure that there was no one around, he threw a lot of ripe wheat out into the open.
Although it has not yet shed its shell, it is still real food.
Without bags to put it in, the wheat was directly scattered on the ground. Soon, the endless supply of wheat piled up into a small hill.
I guess it weighs several hundred kilograms...
She clapped her hands and ran to the side to hide, shouting, "Wow, there's so much food here! It's piled up like a mountain!"
Most of the refugees didn't believe her voice and continued to rush into the camp.
But there are also those who come back to watch. As long as there is one, there will be a second one.
"Oh my God, this is actually true. There is actually food?"
"I, I must be dreaming. There really is something there? Dad! Come back quickly, there's food!"
As they were talking, everyone rushed forward in a hurry. Some grabbed it with their hands, some put it in their clothes, and some stuffed it directly into their mouths.
But no matter what, the commotion here successfully attracted the refugees who were still resisting stubbornly on the other side.
When they heard that there was plenty of food, everyone immediately turned around and rushed forward. Who would be willing to take the risk of getting beaten when there was food to eat?
Xiao Lingling took advantage of the chaos and sneaked back, and no one inside or outside noticed her movements.
Xue Zhining was a little confused. She came out to help, but everyone retreated?
"Yan Zhi, go and see what's going on."
"yes!"
Yan Zhi left quickly and came back quickly, with a look of disbelief between her brows.
"A lot of wheat suddenly appeared not far to the north of us, and the refugees went to grab it all. Many of them even snatched the food and secretly left."
Xue Zhining frowned, "How could so much food appear out of nowhere in this remote place?"
Yan Zhi shook her head. "I'm not sure. No one saw those refugees. It's like they appeared out of thin air. Regardless, at least our crisis is temporarily resolved."
Xue Zhining didn't think much of it, "We still need to be more vigilant at night. If this happens again next time, we'll catch the one with the crooked eyes and kill him immediately!
Only by actually seeing blood can we calm them down, otherwise there will be more troubles along the way."
Yan Zhi hesitated, "But, the master never wanted us to be stained with the blood of innocent people."
When Xue Zhining heard this, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and she turned around to look at the tent behind her.
"That was in the past. Now that the master is gone, we must protect the young master. Besides, at this point, who isn't innocent? Isn't the master innocent? We are simply forced into this situation."
Yan Zhi was stunned for a moment, then his expression became firm.
"Okay, I understand. I'll pass it on later. I think everything will be fine tonight. Go back and get some rest, girl."
Xue Zhining nodded and prepared to go back to the tent. When she turned around, she saw Xiao Lingling sitting listlessly on the ground.
She thought the refugees had hurt her, so she immediately came forward nervously, "What's wrong? Are you hurt somewhere? Let me see."
Little Bell raised her head, revealing her pitiful little face with tears in her eyes.
"Sister Xue, I'm not hurt. But I'm really hungry~~~~"
