Chapter 699: On the Way to Escape 5

Zhang Zhong asked in a trembling voice, he still didn't believe that people could be evil to this extent.

"You go and smell them, a rancid smell, you can't cover it, this is the smell of people who are addicted to eating 'two-legged sheep'."

Ripple said calmly.

No one moved this time, because the four brothers of the Zhang family were in hand-to-hand combat with these four people just now, and they naturally smelled the smell.

Now the whole courtyard was terriblely quiet, except for the crackling of torches.

"Listen to the ripples, since they have set their sights on our children, it will be even more troublesome if they recruit their accomplices."

"Phew" Zhang Shi spat fiercely, and went around the yard looking for stones, trying to stone these beasts who coveted his son.

"Uncle, don't dirty your hands, dig a deep pit and just bury them."

Ripples knew that these simple peasant families had never had human lives on their hands, so it was normal for their hands to be soft and their legs to tremble.

"All of you go and dig a pit, Ripples, you wake up your grandmother and a few aunts and mothers, clean up, and deal with these five people, and we will set off overnight, if we let these brute companions catch up, we will be too late to leave."

Lao Zhangtou said decisively.

"Yes, Dad!"

"Yes, sir!"

Lao Zhangtou instructed the two eldest grandsons beside him:

"Don't tell your sister what you heard and saw just now, remember?"

"Master, we remember."

The two grandchildren are fourteen years old, they are the eldest children, although the stomach has pantothenic acid, but they still hold back, they are half the pillars of the family, and they can't be coaxed.

"I'm going to help you Sister Ripple."

Lao Zhangtou waited for his two grandsons and granddaughters to enter the house, stood against the door frame for a while, and then relieved himself, turned around and entered the house, and found that everyone was already packing up their things, and looked into the inner room, and found that several daughters-in-law, under the leadership of the old woman, had put away the bedding.

At this time, the inner room was also quiet and terrible, and when there was a disturbance just now, the women in the inner room woke up, but they knew that they couldn't help when they went out, and they would drag their men back, so they clenched the rolling pin in their hands, squatted under the base of the wall, and what was said outside, they heard it clearly.

Especially after listening to the words of the "two-legged sheep" said by Ripples, the cold hairs on the back of their necks stood up, and the faces of the two daughters-in-law and Hui Niang who were named turned white at that time, if it weren't for Ripples to be vigilant, to guard against these people, their children. I can't even think of it.

The four brothers of the Zhang family and the five people of Song Dachuan held their breath in their chests, and in less than two quarters of an hour, they dug a three-meter-deep pit in the vegetable field in the backyard of the village chief's house, and directly threw the five people who were struggling into the pit, and quickly filled in the soil and buried the pit.

When they returned to the front yard, Lao Zhangtou was ready, and they left this eerie village overnight with torches.

Everyone was silent, but they kept hurrying, and it took a night to climb over a mountain, and at the other end of the mountain, they finally saw a little green, and the family continued to bury their heads in the road, trying to avoid the places where the victims gathered.

"After crossing this mountain, we will reach the north of Liangzhou, and there is no disaster here, but because the victims from the south are pouring over here, we must be more careful, in addition to beware of the victims, we must also pay attention to those who fish in troubled waters."

Ripple had a map of Daqian in her mind, so she couldn't go wrong with her way.

"Ripples, who are those people you are talking about fishing in troubled waters?"

Xin immediately asked.

Since the night of the ghost village, everyone has tacitly accepted that Ripples, the most knowledgeable person, is the invisible leader, and the weekday arrangements are still up to Lao Zhangtou, and if there is something that can't be decided, Lao Zhangtou will also pull Ripples to discuss.

Since they were asked, Ripple seized the time to popularize science for them, lest they were sold and still helped others count the money, and it was not their fault that they had less knowledge, some people had never left the village where they lived for generations.

"There are two types of people who fish in troubled waters, those who are human beings and those who are wealthy.

They take advantage of the opportunity for the victims to sell their children and daughters in order to survive, and they will buy those good-looking children, but there are also those who are unwilling to sell their children and daughters, like our family, those people may steal and rob, and even a piece of candy can stun the child and take it away.

Therefore, when we arrive in such a place, we must not be separated, but also be vigilant, pay attention to the situation around us at all times, and do not talk to those who take the initiative to talk to us, these people are very likely to take our words.

For money, what they value is some things outside the body, such as jade, pearls and so on that we accidentally got before, they can exchange these things back with a little bit of food, and then sell them to other state capitals, and they can earn back tenfold and hundredfold.

These things can't be eaten or drunk, and it's better to exchange them for two taels of food, so many disaster victims will give up these, and we can't show these things, so as not to be targeted.

If you have a conscience, give some food, and when you meet that kind of vicious person, you can't do anything about it, so it's still the same sentence, everyone should be vigilant, after all, there are few of us. ”

Ripple didn't mind saying something a little more terrifying, so that these people could always be on their toes.

"You all listen to the ripples, she didn't scare you when she said this, our Zhangjia Village and your grandmother and I have fled to the village to settle down in this generation, do you still remember Liu Laohan's house in the west of the village?"

"I remember, my little aunt and I seem to be somewhat related."

"Yes, it's his family, when the family fled to Zhangjia Village, there were only four people left in the family, and five children were killed on the way, and they were never found back."

When Lao Zhangtou is idle, he will also chat with the men in the same village, which he heard Liu Laohan say himself.

Several women hugged the child in their arms tightly, and then explained to the child in a soft voice that they could not eat what was handed by strangers, and that they should follow their father and mother closely, and in case they were separated, they should shout the names of their father and mother and eldest sister loudly.

The ripples of listening are full of black lines, but when the goal is achieved, she doesn't care, after all, it is also for the good of the children.

After entering the northern part of Liangzhou, they interspersed all the way, wanting to leave the boundary of Liangzhou as soon as possible, as long as they entered the territory of Huangzhou, they could get rid of the victims, after all, not all the victims wanted to go to Huangzhou, most of them wanted to go to Huzhou, which was closer to Liangzhou, where it was more affluent.

After the Zhang family walked to the middle of the northern part of Liangzhou, they were stopped outside the city of Haoyuan County, where a large number of victims had gathered, and they were all staring at the gate of Haoyuan County with blank eyes.

"If we want to leave Liangzhou, we must pass through Haoyuan County, and we can't make a detour."

Ripple said as he stood on his cart full of luggage and looked at the castle tower in the distance.
