"West." The female Taoist priest said in a low voice.

"West? Isn't that Mao'er Mountain? Chen Shu frowned.

To the west of the small fishing village is a deep mountain old forest, beyond this forest and then walk dozens of miles of mountain roads, you will arrive at the boundary of Maoer Mountain.

And Mao'er Mountain, bandits are rampant.

Chen Shu once went to the boundary of Mao'er Mountain once for hunting, and knew that the bandits there were vicious and cruel.

It is said that the boss of Brother Scar is one of the bandits in Maoer Mountain.

"It's Mao'er Mountain!" Before the female Taoist priest could speak, the little girl on the side held the steamed bun and shouted: "It was those bandits who killed my father!" ”

The little girl's eyes were red, and when she finished speaking, she hid in her mother's arms and cried.

The crying made the already hungry and cold homeless people more and more sad, thinking of the destruction of the village, the loss of their relatives, and the displacement, they didn't know where to run, one by one lowered their heads and began to sob, and several tall men couldn't help but cry with their heads in their arms.

The female Taoist priest also secretly wiped her tears.

Seeing the situation, Qin Zhen had mixed feelings in his heart.

What happened to the displaced people today will not happen to the small fishing village in the future?

It is meaningless to simply make money, as the so-called disaster comes, I will store my gun, you will store grain, and your home will be my granary.

In troubled times, if you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself.

Back to the village.

Liu Juan was the first to pounce: "Zhen'er, how's it going?" Didn't get hurt, did you? ”

Qin Zhen pointed to a group of displaced people who followed behind him: "It's okay, there was a misunderstanding, it's not a bandit, it's a refugee who fled from the west." He glanced at Liu Quan and the others who rushed over: "Juan'er, take a few people to cook some porridge, and then light a fire to warm their bodies." ”

"Refugees?" Liu Quan glanced at the female Taoist priest and the others, and said in a low voice: "How can refugees be casually led to the village?" Who knows if there are any bad batches in it? Besides, how expensive is food these days? We don't have enough to eat ourselves, so how can we give it to outsiders in vain? ”

"Who do you say is the bad batch?" The young Taoist's face turned green.

"Didn't ask?" Qin Zhen stopped between the two.

"Dao number Miaoyun." The female Taoist priest came over to relieve the siege: "This is my junior brother, Shanhai." ”

"Aunt Miaoyun Dao, my brother is straightforward, and I ask you to do a lot of Haihan." Qin Zhen gave Liu Quan a look, and the latter closed his mouth in amusement.

"Nature." Dao Gu Miaoyun hurriedly echoed.

If it weren't for Qin Zhen's soft-heartedness and letting them go into the village to rest, I'm afraid that this group of people would have to spend the night in the forest! Not to mention that now they are still asking people to cook porridge for them to drink, Daogu Miaoyun dares to scare anyone, but she is polite to Qin Zhen.

She glared at her brother, who lowered his head, full of disbelief.

At this time, the old village chief ran out of the cellar with people.

Among them were the two escaped members of the village guard.

Seeing Qin Zhen, the two of them were full of shame.

"You still have the face to come back?" Chen Shu sneered: "Run!" Even if others run, you will run with you? What a shame for our village guards! Fortunately, it is not a mountain bandit who came this time, if it is really a mountain bandit, the village will be slaughtered, I see what you will do when you come back! ”

He was born in the army, and he looked down on the cowards who escaped from the battle.

Either you don't sign up for the village guard, since you're here, you'll be served with good food and drink, and if you don't do anything if you take the benefits, you should die!

"Qin Zhen, we ......" The two were extremely ashamed.

Qin Zhen looked at the two of them quietly, he knew that he had to stand up at this time.

Otherwise, if you run away when something happens, the village guard will be like a fictitious team.

"Your wife works in a textile factory, right? I won't use it in the future. ”

As soon as they heard that they would not be able to work in the textile factory in the future, the two were anxious.

Now the people in the village are counting on going to Qinzhen to work there to earn a living!

Earn some wages, although you are struggling, but you don't have to go hungry.

The people in the village couldn't get in, but now it's good, because of their cowardice, not only did they remove themselves from the village guard, but even their families also suffered.

"Qin Zhen, we were wrong! Just give us another chance! ”

"We're really just confused!"

The two begged bitterly and shed tears, which made many people unbearable.

The old village chief couldn't stand it, and helped persuade: "Zhen'er, they are all from the villagers, forget it!" Who isn't scared when the lights are dark outside? Give them another chance, and next time they do this, I'll break their legs!" ”

"When Haikou came ashore, if my brother had run away, would you still be alive now?" Qin Zhen's rhetorical question left the old village chief speechless.

"Who isn't afraid?" Qin Zhen's eyes were cold: "Why don't we run?" Isn't it because the village is our home? If his wife and children are not protected, is it possible to expect the mountain bandits to show mercy? ”

As he spoke, he turned to look at Chen Shu and the others.

"All members of the village guard, you have a meritorious service in protecting the village, and you will have an extra meal at night!"

If there is a mistake, it will be punished, and if there is merit, it will be rewarded.

The villagers who stayed behind to protect the village are all good!

The members of the village guard who escaped regretted it at the moment, and they wanted to slap themselves a few big mouths.

Why did you get confused and run away? What a damn one!

At this time, Liu Juan came over with steaming rice porridge, sprinkled with dried fish, and the aroma was fragrant.

"Let's eat!" Qin Zhen personally handed a bowl of porridge to Daogu Miaoyun: "Take a rest and sleep well." ”

Looking at the rice porridge in front of him, Miaoyun was in a complicated mood.

"Thank you." She said softly.

Qin Zhen smiled faintly and turned to leave.

The surrounding refugees had already rushed to eat, and the hot porridge was hot, but they didn't dare to stop for a moment.

Many people cried while eating, kowtowing to Qin Zhen in thanks.

In the year of the catastrophe, rice was more expensive than people, but Qin Zhen did not hesitate to take out rice to help the displaced people, what is this not a living bodhisattva?

"What are you going to do with these people?" Liu Quan asked in a deep voice: "Let them stay overnight, and let them go tomorrow?" ”

is not a relative, giving some rice porridge is already benevolent and righteous, Liu Quan just wants to send them away quickly.

It's not just him, that's what most people in the small fishing village think.

Chen Shu looked at Qin Zhen silently, he knew that Qin Zhen should have his own plans.

I only heard Qin Zhen look at the dark night outside the village, and said slowly: "The mountain bandits will sweep to us one day, don't you think, there are a few people in our village?" ”

It was night, and Miaoyun tossed and turned.

The little girl on the side timidly asked, "Mom, will they drive us away?" ”

The cloaked mother hugged her and said bitterly, "We don't belong here. ”

Leaving them is leaving dozens of mouths to eat, who would do such a stupid thing?

Miaoyun thought silently, and fell asleep tiredly.

Early the next morning.

Miao Yun and the others were nervously preparing to leave, when they saw Qin Zhen rushing over with people.

What he said caught these homeless homeless people by surprise.

"You can stay."
