Chapter 26 There is a Village Ahead



Lin's voice was hoarse and her face was full of despair and numbness.

The three yamen were just immersed in their own world.

Ji Changying felt nauseous and used her mental power to break a branch above their heads.

With a "click".

The three yamen runners looked up and saw the branches above their heads falling down, so they quickly pulled up their pants and hid to the side.

"Bah! What bad luck! I almost had fun!"

"Okay, it's almost done anyway, let's go!"

"I didn't expect this woman, even though she's a little older, to taste so good."

Ji Changying watched Lin's expressionless face as she was hit by a branch. She didn't know how long she lay there before she stood up and slowly put her clothes back on.

Although she didn't like Ji Ruolin's family, she didn't feel happy seeing Lin like this.

I just feel sad.

They walked out of the woods arm in arm. Ji Changying pretended to be asleep and watched them return to their resting place.

It took a long time for Lin to walk to the sleeping place like a zombie and lie down straight.

Ji Changying discovered that Ji Luyuan's eyeballs were constantly trembling.

Ji Luyuan didn't sleep at all!

She glanced at him in disgust and ignored him.

It was obvious that Lin was not doing this voluntarily.

As her husband, Ji Luyuan would rather pretend to be asleep than step forward to stop it. What a wimp!

Thinking of this, Ji Changying shook her head. It didn't matter to her whether he was a wimp or not. It was his own business after all.

The next morning, when they were on the road again, Ji Changying saw that their family was walking behind and looked unhappy.

Xing'er, Xiaoqin, and the other girls gathered around her, chattering, "Ah Ying! My parents asked me to thank you! We tried that acorn last night, and it was pretty good. Most importantly, it really didn't make us hungry anymore!"

"My family ate some too. This stuff can be stored without having to worry about it going bad!"

"I just don't know if there are any more back there. If there are, we can pick some more!"

Ji Changying came back to her senses and felt very happy when she heard them say this: "The further north we go, the more trees like this there are. We can look for them in the forests in the mountains later."

Several people nodded heavily.

Today we were still walking on the official road. Occasionally, a carriage would pass by, raising a cloud of dust or throwing a few stones onto people.

The team will be a little chaotic at this time.

According to Zhang Ziwei's plan, he was going to pass by a town today, but he didn't reach his destination until the sun set.

When it was time to rest at night, Ji Fengshou was called away by the clan leader.

Each family provided a strong laborer, and they planned to try to hunt some wild game.

The result is obvious.

Without any tools and insufficient experience, the group soon returned dejected, having not seen a single pheasant feather.

Zhou curled her lips and said, "Next time, let me go!"

Ji Fengshou was very impressed: "Okay, I'll leave the chance to you next time."

He is really not as good as his wife in this regard, he has to admit it.

In the evening, when Ji Changying took out the bacon from the space and handed it to Mrs. Hu, she stared at it for two seconds and didn't ask anything.

She assumed that this was another secret hiding by Ji Changying.

However, this thing can be stored. She collected it but did not cook it. Instead, she cooked the semi-dried beans and simply seasoned them for her family to eat.

You can't be too high-profile in life.

Her family eats meat every day when no one else has anything to eat. How hateful!

When I went to bed that night, I could clearly feel the temperature drop.

Many people were shivering from the cold and could only hug themselves to keep warm.

When it started to drizzle in the second half of the night, the police woke people up and set off.

Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, everyone still set off.

Seeing that the rain was about to get heavier, Ji Changying remembered that she had put away some straw raincoats in her space when she was packing up her things, so she quickly took them out and gave one to each person in the family.

"Where...where did this come from?"

Before Mrs. Hu could ask a question, Ji Changying stuffed her into his arms.

"Let's get going! If we get wet again, we'll all get sick!"

When the family heard this, they had no time to ask questions. They were urged by her to put on the clothes in a hurry, and only then did they feel a little more comfortable.

It was windy and rainy, and a group of people were walking hard in the dark night. Everyone was soaked in the rain like a drowned rat.

After walking for about an hour, the yamen runner who had gone out to explore the way finally came back with a happy face and announced to everyone: "There is a village ahead!"

These words were like a shot of adrenaline.

The group of people were in high spirits and walked in one go, led by the yamen runners, to a small village surrounded by mountains on three sides.

When the bailiff went to knock on the door, he knocked for a long time before someone opened it.

As the person inside opened the door slightly, he saw a large group of people standing outside. He screamed and immediately closed the door.

"We are officials from the capital! It suddenly rained just now, so we came here to take shelter. Open the door quickly!" The yamen runners who were caught in the rain were very impatient and slammed the door.

But no one knew whether the people inside heard it or not, and no one was willing to come out to ask.

The people in the queue were also waiting anxiously: "What's going on? Why hasn't the door opened yet?"

The yamen runner hurried back and reported to Zhang Ziwei: "Boss, they refuse to open the door."

Several yamen runners all faced the same situation.

Sun Fan's face was gloomy. "You sons of bitches, break the door down for me! Break it down all of you!"

Zhang Ziwei did not object.

He didn't have the patience to wait any longer.

A group of yamen runners saw what was happening and had no objection. They pulled a few strong men forward and broke down the door.

Soon the whole village was in chaos.
