Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

"Let's go, let's go find the mayor first to find out the situation!"

Mo Beihan ordered in a low tone, and the group led the horses and walked to the mayor's house in the center of the town.

There are fewer and fewer people walking on the road. The further we go towards the beach, the less people are out and about.

In the end, there was no pedestrian on the street, and the shops on the roadside were quiet. I don’t know if everyone had run away or...

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.ual.

"Dad...Dad...please wake up! You can't sleep, please get up! Daddy, don't you want Yan'er anymore? Wuwuwu..."

Suddenly, a sad cry came from a rice shop on the street.

The door panel of this rice shop was kicked to the ground. From outside the door, you can see the mess inside after being looted.

There was a straw mat on the ground, with a corpse covered in white cloth lying on it. A woman was lying on the corpse crying bitterly.

She also carried a small infant on her back, and kneeling next to her was a little boy who was only four or five years old.

The woman and the little boy were both crying, and the swaddled baby was also crying loudly, not knowing whether it was hungry or infected by the atmosphere.

This desolate scene did not attract any neighbors, and it was not clear whether everyone was busy or hiding at home and afraid to come out.

"Go in and take a look!"

Mo Beihan led a group of people into the rice shop.

The sound of footsteps caused the crying mother and son to stop crying. The woman subconsciously protected the little boy in her arms. Both of them raised their heads in horror and looked at this group of strangers who were fully clothed and equipped with swords.

"No...don't come here! You have stolen all the rice and my husband-in-law is dead. Please let us mother and son go. Please! Don't kill us!"

In panic, the woman suddenly let go of the little boy in her arms, pushed him behind her, then knelt down on the ground and kowtowed her head.

"Please don't kill my children! I am willing to serve you like a cow and a horse. Let my two children go! Let them go! Please let my children go..."

The woman knocked so hard that her forehead bled in just a few blows.

Qiao Ran stepped forward and pulled the woman up. The woman's body was shaking like chaff, but she still tried to control her chattering teeth and cried bitterly, begging the group to let her two children go.

"Auntie, don't panic, we are Dai Viet people, not Japanese! We are here to help you!"

Qiao Ran helped the woman sit on the ground and spoke softly and comforted her.

The woman was still begging for mercy. After she realized what the man was talking about, she wiped her eyes, which were red and swollen from crying, with her sleeve and looked at the dozen or so people carefully in surprise.

"You...are you really not Japanese pirates?"

"Of course not. Auntie, take a closer look. We are from Dai Viet, and we came from the capital to help you suppress bandits."

"Capital City? Suppress bandits?"

The woman murmured, then suddenly covered her face and cried:

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Woo..."

Qiao Ran felt uncomfortable after hearing this.

Mr. Mo said that when the palace received an express message, he was asked to come and suppress the bandits.

The palace said they would set off within three days, but Mr. Mo still set off only one day later.

Moreover, they went very fast along the way. Except when they happened to pass by an inn at night and would stop to rest for a night, other times they would not stop if it was still early when they encountered an inn. They would rather spend the night in the wild.

No one wasted any time along the way, but after all, the road was far away, and the Japanese had long been causing trouble here. No matter how hard they rushed, there would always be people who were too late to save them.

Everyone said nothing, waiting quietly for the woman to finish venting.

The woman cried heartily, and then she thought that these big shots from the capital were still waiting here. After she calmed down, she felt scared.

I am just a family member of a businessman, but I have made these big shots wait for so long. What if they get angry and kill me and my two children?

The woman quickly wiped her tears and kowtowed again to apologize.

Qiao Ran stopped her again. Seeing that she had calmed down, she asked:

"Auntie, you just said that the Japanese came two days ago? How many people were there? How often do they come? Do you know where they live?"

Listening to Qiao Ran's voice, the woman's voice was thin and soft, unlike a man's. Moreover, she was also very petite, and the powerful clothes she wore showed off her exquisite figure, making her look even better among the men in black. Somewhat out of place.

A closer look revealed that this young man had no Adam's apple on his neck and his earlobes were pierced. He immediately understood that this was a young girl.

Then, her frightened heart calmed down a little, she composed herself, and answered the girl's words:

"These Japanese people came the afternoon before yesterday. I heard that there were more than a hundred people. The time they came was variable. Sometimes they came every seven or eight days, sometimes every three or five days. I don't know where they lived. When this group of people came the day before yesterday, my husband They asked me to hide in the cellar with my child. Today there was no sound outside, so I climbed out of the cellar with my child. I found that my husband-in-law had been killed by them, and all the rice and grain in the shop had been robbed. Oh, oh, oh, oh... How can we, the orphans and the widowed, survive?"

Qiao Ran felt pity and took out two silver ingots worth ten taels from her body and handed them to the woman:

"Auntie, there are twenty taels here. You can take your children to live somewhere else! After we eliminate these Japanese, you can come back. Your husband-in-law, we will also help you bury him properly."

The woman looked at the two heavy silver ingots in her hands and insisted on kneeling on the ground to kowtow to her benefactor.

Mo Beihan ordered two guards to stay and help the woman bury her husband, and the group continued walking along the stone street.

The further they walked, the more uncomfortable they felt. From time to time, cries could be heard from both sides of the street. It seemed that more than one family was affected.

Everyone didn't stop and went straight to the mayor's house.

The mayor of Tongnan Town is named Liu. His house is a little larger than the average house. Like other houses in this town, it has stone walls made of stones from the seaside, which is very solid.

But when Qiao Ran and the others arrived at the door of the mayor's house, they saw white cloth hung on the door, white cloth also hung on the trees in the yard and under the eaves, and cries could be heard from inside.

Hearing that they were coming from the capital, the servant at the gate quickly went in to report.

The person who came to greet him was not the mayor, but a young man with an elegant temperament. He didn't look like he grew up by the sea, but more like a scholar.
