Chapter 67: The Bandits Are Coming
Previously, she was worried about how to educate her children. Now with these books, doesn't she believe that these children will not become talents under the knowledge of nine years of compulsory education?
The box on the other shelf says corn, also seeds. If you find the right environment, you can grow potatoes and sweet potatoes without starvation.
However, the terrain is relatively low. There are so many caves here due to the influence of flowing water. When flood season comes, their homes will be flooded.
It is also not a good habitat and needs to be found in a more suitable place.
Just as Shen Yunxi was anxious to find a new place to live, the escaped villagers were ambushed by wolves and bears on the beast mountain, suffering heavy casualties.
Some fell and were injured while the beast fled, some were bitten by snakes, insects, rats and ants, and some even got lost.
In the past, Tamura led the way and rushed to the road, but now there is no leader. Many are like headless flies.
There are no caves to rest in the night, and there is not enough food. Although they can collect wild fruits, they do not dare to go to places where there are many wild fruits, where there may be many wild beasts.
Many people feel that if they keep going, they may end up dying in the dense forest, so they start to walk back.
They felt that if they were lucky, the bandits might have captured enough people and would have gone back long ago.
Under this mentality, these refugees began to move back.
Some are back. They found that Tian Mura's family and Shen Yunxi's family were still there. Knowing what happened that night, they regretted that they had fled in a hurry that night.
When Zheng Guizhen was eating dinner, she said happily: "Fourth brother and sister, thanks to your insistence on hiding in the cave that night, we were unscathed, and everything was in the cave. Look at those who run away at night. Their families are all dead and badly wounded. Several families have disappeared directly, and there is no news yet. ”
Tian Da Niu was frightened. "It's lucky to be able to listen to my mother, otherwise we will be miserable."
Others quickly agreed that it was too dangerous to go deep into the forest.
Shen Yunxi sighed: "This is all in my expectation, but the villagers don't listen to me, and I can't help it." The low-lying caves here are all washed out by the water of the Qingmei River, and they cannot stay for a long time. We had to find a place to settle down. ”
Zheng Guizhen is very sad and sad. "If only we could cross the river. The environment there is better than here, and there are no robbers, so it is safer. ”
Shen Yunxi also wanted to cross the river, but the Qingmei River was too wide and the water flow was fast, and the bamboo raft could not cross it.
"I'll figure it out as soon as I can." Shen Yunxi replied, "I believe that we can live better."
At this moment, a panicked voice came from outside: "The robbers are coming." Run!"
Those who had just settled down began to tremble, become frightened, and hesitate to flee.
Shen Yunxi said to Zheng Guizhen: "Sister-in-law, you look at these children. I'm going to go out and have a look. I will be back as soon as possible. ”
She hurriedly took the bone cutter and ran in the direction of the large stone pile. Tamura chief and hundreds of improvised young people stood there.
From a distance, Tamura could be heard shouting, "Aim, throw hard, and kill these turtle grandchildren!"
Since Tamura decided not to leave here, he began to ambush here with his three sons, and carefully moved the gold-leaf mud cake to the top to deal with the bandits.
Other desperate people also came to help, but they didn't expect to be used so quickly.
Shen Yunxi was like a clever monkey, quickly climbing to the top of the stone pile and looking down. On the other side of the pile, there were hundreds of murderous bandits with clubs in their bare hands.
