Chapter 257: What One Candy Can Do

Huzi's mother received the news that Yang Xiuxiu was coming to Tiankeng Village early in the morning, and specially guarded the entrance of Tiankeng Village, and saw a group of people driving a carriage over, and hurriedly greeted him.

The nearby victims all greeted each other, and many of them personally watched what happened in the Zhixian Mansion, until someone came from the Zhixian Mansion, and no one dared to go up to find trouble, but there were many more victims along the way for some reason, and some even lay down directly on the side of the road, looking skinny.

"These people are from Tiankeng Village?" Yang Xiuxiu got out of the car and saw some people lying in the middle of her not far away, and when those people saw them dressed, their eyes rolled but they didn't rush up.

"No, it seems that I fled from a nearby village, and I heard that many nearby villages are even worse than our Tiankeng Village." It's just that Huzi's mother didn't expect that the people in the village would flee out, while the people in other places would flee here.

Sanniang brought a lot of food this time, seeing that a lot of people on the side of the road dug up the soil and dug the roots under the ground to eat, Yang Xiuxiu knew what she was thinking at a glance, and just wanted to stop it, but the horse stopped Sanniang's movements one step faster than her: "This is not the place to talk, besides, there are so many disaster victims, we have one, but we can't save a group, be careful to attract those people with bad minds." ”

In the case of a stomach that is not full, the restraint will become extremely weak.

"Xianggong, you think your wife and I are stupid." In the end, Sanniang still couldn't stand her methods, and put people together in Tiankeng Village, but he was not at ease, and he was always with him to protect his heartless lady: "These victims suddenly ran here, and there must be some reason why they are abnormal and demons." ”

Sanniang looked innocent, she just wanted to ask about the matter: "You wait, wait for me to ask." ”

"Let's do it together." Yang Xiuxiu followed, and she also felt very puzzled in her heart.

It's just that the victims of the disaster are estimated to have suffered a lot along the way, not only did their faces look bad, but as soon as they saw Sanniang and them approaching, the clever people immediately hid to the side, as if they had encountered some kind of goblin that ate people.

"What are you hiding? We're not goblins. Sanniang was a little helpless when she received such treatment.

"Sister, you speak softly, you see that those victims are hiding farther away, if you do this again, this group of people will not know where to hide later." Yang Xiuxiu shook her head and didn't approach the victims: "You don't need to be afraid, I won't go over, I just ask you a few questions, if you know, you can answer me." ”

The victims did not speak, but lowered their heads and continued to pull out the roots of the trees under the ground.

"Where are you from?" I don't know if this question has touched the point in their hearts, those people are more nervous than when Sanniang approached just now, they suddenly stood up, didn't say anything, fluttered and got up and ran: "Hey! Don't run, I won't hurt you. ”

"Sister, you saw it, it's not that my sister is too fierce, it's obvious that these victims are too timid." Those people didn't listen to persuasion at all, and Sanniang couldn't help but be even more puzzled when she saw it: "Could it be that there is really an accident in the east?" ”

"Grab one and ask if you know!" Qu Jun can't see people hesitating like this, what a big deal.

"Everyone has run out, you go and catch it!" Sanniang rolled her eyes.

"Aren't you a princess? Why do you roll your eyes? Qu Jun snorted coldly.

"The princess is not human, is she? What kind of fallacy is this? If it weren't for the sake of my sister Xiuxiu's face, this palace would have to arrest you in the academy and educate you well, an illiterate person who doesn't know anything. "Someone wants to be more horizontal, Sanniang is more horizontal than her, someone is more rude, then she will tell her what is really rude.

"You ......" was about to refute that you didn't look like a princess at all, but the horse master hurriedly cleaned up the mess and skillfully diverted everyone's attention: "There is still one person who hasn't left." ”

The man hid behind a dry tree with few leaves, and when the victims ran, only he didn't run, but no one noticed it just now hiding behind the tree, Sanniang felt very novel: "Young man, why don't you go, aren't you afraid of us?" ”

The man didn't speak, and when he walked forward, he realized that he was squinting and pretending to sleep.

"You can't be asleep, are you?" Qu Jun stepped forward and wanted to open the eyelids, but the gray young man who had just approached suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of black eyes stared at the visitor: "What do you want to do?" As soon as he lifted the small hoe at his feet, he said tremblingly, "Isn't it because you want to snatch the root of the tree in my hand?" ”

He hid the roots of the tree behind him, and there were no three hundred taels of silver here, which made everyone sweat.

"I didn't ask for your roots, I just wanted to ask you a few questions." Yang Xiuxiu said.

"Ask questions? What's the problem? The man looked wary.

"Where did you come from? Why are they all here? Sanniang also interjected, Tiankeng Village was also affected by the disaster, and it was obviously not a wise move to come here.

"I'll answer your question, won't you get rid of me later?" The man was thoughtful and explaining why the victims had just fled.

"Of course not, and with so many people fleeing here, we can't manage it if we want to." Sanniang said.

"In that case, I'll tell you!" Yang Xiuxiu They are much better dressed than them, and they really don't look like liars, they really can't afford to deal with these little people, after figuring it out, the nervousness on the young man's face faded a lot: "We are from the Xia Kingdom, and we fled here." ”

It is possible that the victims who escaped from the disaster were from neighboring counties or other counties, but when they heard that it was the Xia Kingdom, the surprise in the eyes of everyone couldn't help but float, this Xia Country people would appear here like this? Maybe it's "Could it be that there is also a drought in your Xia country?" ”

"Yes, it's not just drought over there,...... the young man said casually, but he quickly realized that he almost missed his mouth, and quickly made up for it, and said, "I mean, the drought on our side is better than in your eyes, and a lot of people have died, and everyone has fled, and we have all fled." ”

Sanniang nodded, although she felt that something was wrong, but she didn't notice anything wrong, she was about to ask the next question when she suddenly heard Jiang Yibai suddenly stand up and speak.

"You're lying!" He said in a tone of affirmation almost with certainty.

"The country of Xia is not only vast and vast, but also the weather is humid all year round, and it is impossible for drought to occur, even if there is a drought, isn't there another place to go in the country of Xia? Don't you think it's strange that you don't go to a good Xia country, but you come to a poor country like Qiushan Country? With Jiang Yibai's affirmation, Yang Xiuxiu soon explained.

Everyone's originally unclear thoughts seemed to be opened up all of a sudden, and Sanniang was the first to get angry, pulling the young man's clothes and picking them up: "You slippery boy actually dare to lie to me?" She almost believed it.

"I ...... I didn't! "The young man was very thin, and when he was picked up, he felt that his whole skinny body was dangling in the air as if it were going to break at any moment.

"How dare you continue to lie?" Sanniang squinted.

"I didn't lie to you, Xia Guo is indeed in drought, if you don't believe it, you can find another person to ask, see if I'm lying to you!" There was a hint of fear in the young man's eyes.

"Just if you didn't lie to us, there is no drought in Xia Country, but why do you have a place to go in Xia Country, but you want to come to Qiushan Country?" What about this place where birds don't poop? Suspicious, so suspicious, Qu Jun walked around the man, adding as he walked.

"This ......," the young man choked.

"Nothing more." Qu Jun sneered: "Since you have nothing to say, you can tell the truth obediently, maybe we can still let you go, otherwise you will be in a bad mood later, and you will be unlucky, and finally escaped to the country of Qiushan, not starving to death first, but losing your life first, isn't it cost-effective?" ”

"You said you'd let me go!" The young man argued, "Don't you speak now?" ”

"We didn't say we would let you go, but we just said that we wouldn't drive you out of the Hills Country, so do you want to say it now?" Qu Jun condescendingly lowered his head to the person sitting on the ground, stretched out his hand and slowly turned to the person, but the person suddenly stood up, and the head directly hit Qu Jun's nose hard, and then ran outside.

"Hey! You let go of me! Seeing that Leng Li caught someone, Qu Jun covered his nose and stepped forward, and said fiercely, "You are too naΓ―ve, do you feel the strength to run with these legs?" You actually hit me, what do you think I should do with you now? ”

"Hey! After you asked, hurry up and go aside, Sanniang, I haven't asked a few words yet. Sanniang directly squeezed the majestic Qu Jun away, and said to the young man in front of her: "Little brother, hurry up and tell my sister, why did you come here?" Say it's sugar, huh? How can such a mentally retarded method of coaxing a child work, Qu Jun sneered.

But what stunned him was that the young man who was so backbone just now wanted a vicious wolf who hadn't eaten meat for a few days, and swallowed his saliva and asked, "Madam, are you telling the truth?" ”

"Of course it's true." Sanniang smiled.

"Well, I'll tell you anyway!" The young man agreed, and when he saw that Sanniang really gave him the candy and smiled like a fool, he was happy, he had never seen such a spineless one, and a piece of candy bought people: "Our side was originally a small village on the border of Xia and Qiushan Kingdom, and after the disaster, it was indeed going to hide in the capital of Xia Kingdom, and it was our country no matter how it was said, but after the adults of the local government over there knew, they closed the city gate directly and left us to fend for ourselves." ”

"The imperial court didn't help, and if we continued to take it, we would just wait for death, so we could only cross the mountains and mountains to the country of Qiushan." The young man said and licked the candy in his hand with some reluctance: "That...... I'm done, can I go? ”
