Chapter 29: Ambush

The material trucks were scattered and pulled out of Bailu County, which was not conspicuous for the bustling Bailu County.

More than an hour later, the crowd gathered outside the city.

At this time, it was already about two o'clock in the afternoon in the previous life.

Most of those who took in the refugees have returned.

Because it was an agreed time.

Li Yi waited for less than half an hour with his people, and everyone came back.

This time, there were 97 refugees.

Not a lot, but more than the last one.

Some time ago, Li Yi asked Li Ling to collect refugees in Bailu County for several days, and many refugees hesitated, doubted, scared, and apprehensive...... Seeing that Li Ling and his party came every day, they thought that it would not be too late to wait, take a look, and be sure...... Unexpectedly, Li Ling and his party suddenly did not come.

At this time, many refugees became anxious.

People are always like that.

Some opportunities are often lost before they know how to cherish.

Some refugees began to look forward to the return of Li Ling and his party every day.

Some of the sick refugees, as well as their families, couldn't help but regret when they saw the seriously ill people who had left with Li Ling all appear in front of them one by one.

Some of them knew that if they left with Li Ling and his party, they were likely to embark on the road of rebellion against the court.

However, they are all going to die, their whole family is going to die, what do they care about this?

So, today, when Li Yi asked people to collect refugees again, many refugees immediately followed.

Ninety-seven people, plus more than twenty people brought by Li Yi, happened to receive these supplies together and began to rush in the direction of the Hengling Mountain Range.

Therefore, Li Yi spent nearly 100 taels of silver to buy the ox carts and cattle of the major delivery merchants, a total of more than 20 carts and more than a dozen cattle.

There are more and more people on the mountain, Li Yi also plans to plant things on the mountain, as well as all kinds of transportation, cattle can not only be used for work, but also can be killed and eaten for meat, which is not bought for nothing.

Fortunately, in this era, there are no restrictions on the buying and selling of cattle, and everything is going well.

In addition, the vehicles brought by Li Yi and the others when they came were full of a large number of supplies.

Seeing these supplies, those new refugees were excited, and more relieved.

What many of them fear is being deceived.

During this time, they have seen too many ugly things.

These supplies soothed their hearts at once.

In their eyes, this is life, this is hope.

In order not to drag down the trip.

On the way, Li Yi spent 1.6 points of faith to treat the injuries of a total of eight slightly ill people, and the eight seriously ill people were instantly alive and full of spirit, which also shocked the new refugees and bowed down to Li Yi.

Originally, Li Yi's power of faith was 18 points, it cost 12 points to upgrade the two jade pendants, and only 6 points were left, and it cost 1.6 points to treat the injuries of the new refugees, and 4.4 points remained, but these people bowed down to Li Yi and provided Li Yi with 1 point of faith power again.

Li Yi's power of faith rose to 5.4 points again.

With this process, the crowd hurried much faster.

Before five o'clock, we rushed to the foot of the mountain.

In winter, it gets dark quickly.

By this time, it was already dark.

Fortunately, everyone is not far from Black Wind Village.

After more than an hour's drive, I almost arrived.

The main thing is to pull the supplies, and the walk is relatively slow.

"Your Majesty, it seems that someone is eyeing us......"

Suddenly, Li Ling walked up to Li Yi and said in a low voice.

"How many people are there?"

Li Yi frowned.

"There are five spies I saw, they should have been probed three times, and it is estimated that there are quite a few people, with a high probability of more than thirty people, or even more than fifty people, after all, we have many people, and the bandits with few people may not dare to deal with us!" Li Ling thought for a moment and said.

"Slow down, let people take a detour back to Heifeng Village, and let Qian Xiaoer and Zheng An come to support!" Li Yi nodded slightly and said.

"Yes!"

Li Ling nodded and went down to make arrangements.

Then, they began to walk slowly.

After walking for more than ten minutes, everyone began to stop and hurry, and after a while, everyone began to take things from the car, looking like they were going to bury the pot and make food.

Ahead.

Not far away in the woods.

"Damn, why didn't they leave?"

"Second master, do we have to wait?"

"Damn, they're going to eat, we're hungry!"

Some of the bandits were annoyed.

"Wait a little longer, they'll eat in front, there's a good chance they won't find us, we'll wait a little longer now, and when we attack them, we can lose some less manpower!" A strong man headed by a strong man shook his head.

"The second master is right, we have been waiting for most of the day, and it is not bad for a while! You guys still have less experience! How can you not be able to hold your breath when you do big things? A man in his forties smiled with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Jin Gui, have you seen those tricks clearly? Most of these people are refugees? The second master turned his head to look at the man in his forties and asked.

"Yes, Jin Gui, don't be mistaken, these are more than 100 people, if they are all people like us, even if we sneak attack and kill some of them, the rest of the people, we will not be easy to deal with!" The others looked at this man in his forties named Jin Gui and said.

"Don't worry, you won't go wrong, it's been a few days, Heifeng Village has been like this every time, today, my subordinates have seen it several times, and several waves of tricks have said so, there will definitely be no mistakes!" Jin Gui grinned and said.

"Speaking of which, this Black Wind Village is also strange, what are so many refugees doing on the mountain? If you want them to be bandits, there are so many old people, women, children, and even sick people! Do you want them to farm in the mountains and become farmers? However, can these old, weak, sick and disabled people farm in the mountains to support themselves? A bandit was puzzled.

The land in the mountains is not so easy to plant.

"Hey, you don't know, these people can't support themselves, it doesn't matter, first deceive the mountain, if you can afford to support yourself, then you will make a lot of money, and you will get a lot of labor in vain, if you want me to say, this trick of Heifeng Village is called a high ......"

"You know what? These people go up to the mountains and farm the land, and they can grow food in no time? I heard that they are going to take these people to the mountains to be slaughtered, ahem, there are some meat sellers waiting in Bailu County......"

Some of the bandits whispered, laughing from time to time.

They don't care if what they say is true or not, or if it's outrageous, it's just a topic to pass the time.

"Silence! Don't talk anymore! ”

Suddenly, the second master frowned and scolded in a low voice.

"Yes...... 2. The ...... of the master"

"Got it, the second master ......"

The voices of the crowd faded away.

After a while, the mountains and forests were quiet again.

At this time, Li Yi and his party were cooking and eating, and more than half an hour had passed.

Looking at Li Yi and his party who were slowly packing up their things, the face of the second master in the mountains and forests changed, he always felt that something was wrong, and seemed to have ignored something.

Suddenly, the second master looked up and saw flocks of birds flying up the mountain not far away.
