In the year of disaster, the tough peasant girl is not easy to mess with

"Village Chief, you should also take care."

Village Chief Chen nodded, "Okay, okay, I understand, you should also protect yourselves."

Just as he was talking, a family stood on the left again.

Everyone looked over and saw the head of the family standing over walking out.

He smiled and said, "Village Chief, we don't have any ideas. We don't know where to go if we stay. Why not follow you? We will go wherever you go."

Village Chief Chen frowned, "I let you choose first, just because I hope you can obey your own wishes instead of watching what I do. Now that you are like this, if something happens, who should be blamed?"

Everyone also felt that the village chief was right.

The man waved his hands with certainty, clasped his fists at everyone and said, "Don't worry, village chief, everyone knows what happened today. I also hope that you will bear witness for us. I, Chen Daniu, swear here that no matter what happens after entering, Whether I live or die, or encounter any danger, is my own destiny and has nothing to do with the village chief."

Everyone looked at each other, but after he said so, the village chief couldn't refuse anymore.

In the end, he could only say, "Since you have decided, let's go together, but you also remember what you said. All decisions made today are your own ideas. If something goes wrong, don't blame others."

Village Chief Chen is a responsible person, but being responsible does not mean that he will blame others' mistakes on himself.

It's fine if nothing else.

But if something unexpected happened, he couldn't afford it if the whole family blamed all the problems on Village Chief Chen.

Now, listening to everyone's assurances, although he was dissatisfied, he finally nodded.

Originally, several families were interested and wanted to follow the village chief.

But after hearing what the family said, they started to back off again.

They followed the village chief, who was naturally seeking asylum. With them, they still had other options.

But if the village chief is not responsible for their life and death, then they really dare not leave.

If something goes wrong then, they won't be able to protect their families.

So they all stopped and didn't go any further.

The village chief looked at the two groups of people who had been identified and counted them carefully.

Most people in Chenjia Village have the surname Chen, and the people who came here are more or less related to each other.

Including the family that came just now, there are a total of nineteen households.

It doesn't sound like much, but the average family has about four or five people, which adds up to a lot of people.

Finally, after resting for about a quarter of an hour.

Under the reluctant eyes of everyone, the village chief led others into the forest.

Others looked at their leaving figures and didn't know what to say.

After a long silence, someone asked, "Shall we leave now?"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, you suddenly seem to have lost your direction.

Finally, we discussed it and went to the other side together, planning to find a small village to hide in and wait for the city gate to open in two days before going there.

On this side, Village Chief Chen led these families into the mountains and forests.

Chen Dalin, the eldest son of Village Chief Chen, is an escort.

Although he had never walked this road, he was more experienced than others and had some martial arts skills, so he walked at the front to clear the way.

It's still the same as before, with the front bumping and laborers clearing the way, the people behind breaking off the rear, and most of the people in the middle are women and children.

Because they had to drive through the mountains, they traded all their cars, livestock, and other things with other things to the people who stayed behind.

Some were reluctant and led their livestock up the mountain.

The group of people walked like this for a day.

At night, they set up camp on the spot.

Although it is summer, it is still in the mountains, and the cold wind is blowing, so it is still a bit chilly.

This is a mountain, so it’s not advisable to make the fire too big.

So they formed a circle, crowded together, cleared a space in the middle, and lit a small fire.

Taking turns to warm themselves over the fire, it can be regarded as a place to live.

When eating in the evening, I eat my own food.

But I left in a hurry and didn't have time to bring too many things with me.

Now that we have been walking for so many days, everyone has little leftover food.

Some people have already seen the bottom, and they came here eating wild vegetables along the way.

Nowadays, it is dangerous and difficult to find food in the mountains, so we can only make do with some wild fruits and the like.

Without food, some people's minds become more alive.

As long as there is no danger and food and clothing are guaranteed, everyone is indeed a good person and can obey the village chief's arrangements.

But when you run out of food and see others eating delicious food, they can't sit still.

We are all in the same village and know each other very well, so naturally it is difficult to attack.

So those families who had no food to eat focused on the two children from outside.

That is Ye Lingyao and Ye Lingzhi.

Most people were calm and didn't pay attention to the two of them, but there were two people who couldn't care less.

They had not eaten for three days and now they were so hungry that they just wanted to bite.

Others don't dare, but if it's two children, they can still give it a try.

The village chief only said that he would not let them hurt him. But these two outsiders were in the same village. The village chief couldn't control them, right?

So the two set their sights on them.

But under the eyes of the village chief, they did not dare to do anything.

I just look forward to encountering a suitable opportunity the next day and snatching everything from the hands of these two children.

They all saw with their own eyes that what these two children just ate were white-flour steamed buns!

White-flowered white-flour steamed buns!

This shows that they have a lot of good things on their hands.

These people all ran away from the village. How could they have such good things in their hands?

Most of them bring some old rice or beans.

Who would carry big white steamed buns in their hands?

The two men began to take turns watching, waiting for an opportunity to snatch the small backpacks from their hands to see what they could find.

At night, Ye Lingyao could feel a line of sight around them, staring closely at them.

From when I was eating just now until now when I go to sleep, my sight there has never been broken.

She pretended to glance over casually, only to see two young men looking at them.

Taking advantage of the darkness, when she and Ye Lingzhi were leaning together to sleep, she quietly told Ye Lingzhi this discovery.

Ye Lingzhi was also startled, "Are you sure? Someone is really watching us?"

Ye Lingyao nodded, "There will be no lies."
