Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

Jiang Huaixu also took a piece and tasted it. It was slightly bitter when fried in sugar color, and the heat was not controlled well. The smell of wild boar meat was really strong, and adding so many ingredients could not completely cover it up. However, it was the first time she made it, and she was very satisfied.

A bowl of braised pork was eaten by everyone in one bite before it was time to eat. Jiang Huaixu still felt a little bit satisfied, but her appetite was smaller after cooking, and the dinner was not very fragrant.

Before falling asleep, Jiang Huaixu sank his consciousness into space. After playing with the tools for a while, he looked at Fubao's situation. All the crops he planted for the first time had been harvested. The corn stalks, sweet potato seedlings, etc. had all been chopped into pieces by Fubao. It was sprinkled on the ground in the space. Miraculously, it disappeared like seeds after being sprinkled, as if it was fertilized.

In the second round, she found some vegetables and planted them. It was rare to have green leafy vegetables in winter. If she couldn't finish the vegetables at home, she could sell them at Chongming Mansion for a good price.

After looking around, Jiang Huaixu fell asleep.

In the next few days, the group of people hurried on their way, from dawn to dusk every day. Jiang Huaixu saw that the villagers were exhausted every day, so he suggested to Jiang Zhengmao that they eat three meals at a time so that the villagers would have enough strength.

Jiang Zhengmao agreed as soon as he heard it. The bandits' food alone was enough for them to get to Chongming Mansion. It would be unworthy of them to travel through mountains and rivers for so long if they were exhausted at this time.

After walking like this for seven or eight days before walking out of the forest, Jiang Huaixu's points were almost four million.

During this period, Shi Tao and his wife's child Shi Xiaoxing also woke up successfully. Although the foot injury has not healed, he doesn't cry much.

The scenery became more and more desolate as we went outside, and everyone became more and more worried. On the night they were about to leave the forest, the villagers took out all the utensils that could hold water and filled them all with water, fearing that it would be difficult to find water sources after they went out. .

After leaving the forest and walking for two more days, the villagers saw the first village they had seen in these days.

The news had been blocked for too long, so Jiang Zhengmao thought of going to the village to find out the news.

The motorcade stopped at the entrance of the village. He called his eldest sons Jiang Miao and Jiang Dalang and went.

The rest of the people were waiting in place, sitting or lying down, taking some time to rest.

Some villagers passed by and saw so many of them. Some curious people poked their heads, some stared at their carriage with envy, and more people stayed away with a look of fear on their faces.

Soon Jiang Zhengmao and the others came out, and the villagers hurriedly gathered around to ask about the situation.

Jiang Zhengmao briefly said that there was only one well in the whole village that could still produce water, and the other wells and rivers had dried up. When they heard that there was water in the woods when they came, the villagers were not very excited, which made them a little strange.

In addition, they asked if any refugees had passed through recently. The villagers only said that the village was remote and few outsiders passed by.

Jiang Huaixu listened to these words for a while, and most of his attention was attracted by the two sneaky people scanned by Futuan.

[Host, these two people have been following us since we walked to the edge of the village, keeping a sneak peek at the things loaded in the car. 】

Jiang Huaixu grabbed Fu Tuan's furry ears, looked at the two people on the light screen and said: "These two people look like thieves. They must be trying to get their way. The carriages are tightly guarded, so there is no way they can succeed." If they still follow them after leaving this village, it won't be too late to clean them up. 】

The two men with thief-like faces slipped away after Jiang Huaixu and his party started their journey again. Jiang Huaixu no longer took the two of them seriously.

At this time, she didn't expect that these two people could make such a big noise.

In the evening, a group of people used a leeward hillside as their new camp. The villagers, who had been tired for a day, simply filled their bellies and fell asleep quickly.

Nowadays, it’s getting colder every day, and it’s even more cold at night. Fortunately, there are more than a hundred bandits. Jiang Zhengmao didn’t even spare their bedding. He divided it among each family, so it wasn’t too crowded. cold.

On a dark and windy night, people are killing people and setting fires.

Just as everyone fell into a deep sleep, many figures were moving quickly towards the hillside in the darkness.

In the dark night, Jiang Huaixu suddenly opened his eyes. At the same time, Jiang Erlang and Yun Qi also opened their eyes.

"Someone is attacking, everyone wake up!!"

The night watchman belatedly started shouting. The sleeping villagers were still a little confused. After hearing the content of the shout clearly, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Children react faster than adults.

"Get the bows and arrows! Brothers and sisters, we have work to do!"

Some boys were quite excited and clamored to 'have a big fight'.

Jiang Huaixu took out his crossbow, bent down to pick up a small stone, flicked his finger, and hit Zheng Yuan, who was shouting the loudest, on the head.

Zheng Yuan covered his head and looked over with an unkind expression. When he saw it was Jiang Huaixu, he shrank his neck and turned back.

"Line up!" Jiang Erlang shouted, and the teenagers immediately lined up facing the direction of the enemy's arrival and waited quietly for the enemy's arrival.

The movement seemed to be noticed by the visitors. Their originally firm steps gradually became hesitant. After a while, they ran towards the hillside again.

"Come on!"

"Kill them so we don't have to starve!!"

"Kill them!"

With roars, a group of people dressed as villagers appeared in front of everyone holding various weapons.

Jiang Zhengmao saw that they were from the village they passed today, so he began to persuade: "We have bows and arrows in our hands. If you come here, you will die. I advise you to leave as soon as possible, it is better than losing your life in vain."

"In this world, if you don't rob, you will die! There has been a drought for so long, we have paid taxes, and we have nothing at home. You have so much food, but you have not shown any kindness to help us. What is the use of saying this at this time? !”

Jiang Huaixu looked at the person shouting at the front, his small eyes moving like a mouse. He was one of the two people she saw on the light screen during the day. Not only was this person's words full of incitement, but he was also full of incitement. Quite good at kidnapping people morally.

At this time, someone suddenly knelt down on the opposite side and said, "Please, gentlemen, we really have no way to survive, so we came up with this method. You should just take pity on us and give us some food. As long as we can survive, we will be able to survive in the future." I will definitely remember your great kindness!”

Well, the other of the two. Now Jiang Huaixu was sure that this was what the two of them had agreed upon - maybe if they encountered a tough situation, they would be soft like they were now, and if they encountered a soft persimmon, they would just use the knife.

With such experience, it must not be the first time.

At this time, the villagers on the opposite side knelt down one after another, begging and begging, and some even kowtowed.

The teenagers who had lined up in line encountered this situation for the first time and were suddenly at a loss. They looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

The adults had been educated by the village chief Jiang Zhengmao for a long time, but they had no sympathy for this group of people and just looked at them coldly.

Jiang Huaixu walked to Jiang Erlang and said softly: "Kill the two people who spoke."

"You left me right."

Jiang Huaixu nodded.

Both of them raised their crossbows and fired arrows at the target person.

The two people instantly lay down on the ground and stopped moving.

The local people who had been begging were stunned by this sudden turn of events and screamed again and again for a long time.

A group of people instantly became a mess, and some timidly stumbled away.

Jiang Huaixu put away his crossbow and said loudly: "If you want to survive, I can show you a way."
