Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Faced with such a situation, even Yao Shu couldn't resist it. She didn't know how to react. Her face was expressionless with fear. She still hasn't figured out what she did. It would make the officers and soldiers go to war in such a big way.

She was really afraid of risking her life here.

There was finally light in the cell. Yao Shu squinted her eyes and looked up, only to see a man with a serious face and armor sitting on top with a golden sword.

Judging from the attire, he shouldn't be an ordinary soldier.

She was just a small refugee, so how could she alarm these big shots? Yao Shu didn't even dare to speak casually.

"Tell me the truth, what are you going to do by concealing your identity and entering the city?"

The man's tone was so stern that Yao Shu was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. This was the first time she had seen such a compelling aura in someone.

Facing the interrogation, she became even more confused, but this was a rare opportunity to explain, and she would not miss it.

"Back to Master Jun, we are refugees who escaped from the south. We really have no place to go. We just came to Zhangzhou City to find a way out. We went to many places along the way but no one was willing to take them in. We are really desperate. , we don’t have any bad intentions.”

They just didn't reveal their identity as refugees right away, so why were they so serious?

I don't know, but I thought they had committed a major crime such as rebellion that would kill the Nine Tribes.

Listening to Yao Shu's explanation, the general in charge did not show any emotion, but his expression became more serious, as if Yao Shu was some dangerous person.

"My general advises you to tell the truth. I got a lot of words from your accomplices. Telling the truth can save you some effort and suffer less physical pain."

He really must be considered a fool. What kind of place is Zhangzhou City? Few people are willing to come here, not to mention that this group of people entered the city from the east gate, which is even more impossible.

The vast desert outside the east gate is impossible for ordinary people to cross.

"I really have nothing to explain, what do you want me to say?"

Yao Shu was complaining endlessly. Did she really not know what she had done wrong? Looking at Xing Ju next to her, she was so frightened that she broke into cold sweat and the clothes on her back were soaked.

"Come here and be punished."

The general on the opposite side obviously didn't want to waste any more time and gave the order directly.

In his opinion, people will become much more honest under severe punishment, and they will know how to behave obediently.

You must never be soft-hearted towards your enemies.

This change caught Yao Shu off guard. She never expected that the other party would be so impatient and would not give her a chance to explain herself. She would be tortured if she disagreed with her, and she was not afraid of being beaten into submission.

She couldn't figure out why such a person could be loved by the people.

Seeing that the instrument of torture was about to fall on her body, Yao Shu could no longer remain calm and she roared angrily.

"Are you prepared to surrender? Is there any royal law? There is no explanation for lynching good people. If I really committed something, I will be free to be tried by the county government."

She struggled as much as possible, hoping that the other party would change his mind.

"Bah! You, a spy, have so much to say, so you should save your energy."

The soldiers who came over with torture tools thought Yao Shu was too noisy and sarcastically said.

"The enemy weapons you hid have been searched out, and there is no way to lead. Do you really think that everyone else is a fool? There is no way to sneak into Zhangzhou City."

Hearing this, Yao Shu indeed became quiet.

But it was not to confess, she was shocked. She never imagined that for such a reason, they were regarded as spies. This was too outrageous.

They are very good people!

After being reminded like this, Yao Shu finally figured out what the problem was. Firstly, it was because of their sensitive status as refugees, and secondly, it was the weapons they had snatched from the rebels.

The things they used to defend themselves along the way actually caused big trouble.

She was unable to complain in her heart, and she was holding back a lot of nameless anger. However, she still had to suppress this anger. The most important thing now was to explain the misunderstanding clearly.

Otherwise, she might lose half her life.

None of these punishments were something she could withstand.

"General, this is all a misunderstanding. We are really refugees, and we have household registration documents with us. As for the weapons on us, we snatched them from the rebels. We didn't know in advance that we couldn't bring weapons into the city..."

Yao Shu kept talking, just to win the other party's trust.

She was really afraid that if she stopped, she would lose the last chance to defend herself. If she was forced to do that, she would have to reveal her trump card.

When it came time to make a life-or-death decision, she could only choose to expose the mystery of the system in exchange for her life. Survival was the most important thing.

"Is everything you said true?"

Ling Hui stared at Yao Shu with a pair of eagle eyes.

He always felt that the other party was not an ordinary peasant woman. From the very beginning when he started arresting people, he noticed that the other party was unusual. The team of people were all waiting for Yao Shu's order.

He couldn't be mistaken about the looks on everyone's faces.

He has been fighting on the battlefield for many years and has never failed to recognize his commander. His different momentum is incomparable to ordinary people.

"Everything I said is true. You can send someone to verify it."

By this time, Yao Shu could only swear. She had stopped talking and said everything she needed to say. If she still couldn't win people's trust, she had no other choice.

Ling Hui winked at the people around him and immediately sent someone to check.

This was not something that could be found out in a short time. Yao Shu was put into the cell again. With the interrogation room as a comparison, she even felt that the cell was not unbearable.

She found a relatively clean place to sit down, her face was full of sorrow, and her brows were so furrowed that she almost caught mosquitoes.

If she had known that the weapon would cause such a big trouble, she would have definitely found a way to deal with it early. She never thought that Zhangzhou City alone would be much more special.

She didn't know if what she said could be trusted by others. She didn't want to stay in the cell for a long time.

"This is really no place for people."

"Why are we so unlucky that we are put in a cell?"

"Village Chief, will my old lady be okay? I don't know where she was taken alone."

In another cell, most of the people in Dahezhuang were complaining about the poor environment of the cell, and they were not jumping around in a hurry. Only the Shen family was the most distressed, and Shen Nanshan had been pestering the village chief to find a solution.

Without Yao Shu, the Shen family had no backbone, and Shen Nanshan didn't know what to do at all.

He kept asking questions, and the village chief was so worried that his hair was about to fall out.
