Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 24 Design to save people
I have to say that now is indeed a good time to escape. The thieves thought they had the hostages in hand, and never thought that the woman would escape, or they simply didn't care.
All they want is a packed meal.
If Yao Shu wants to escape, she can just walk away quietly. There is no one around her, and she is not afraid of being discovered.
As long as she leaves here, she doesn't have to worry about being killed by bandits, and she will be safe.
What reason did she have to stay? Shen Nanshan is not her husband, and the child is not her biological child. These are the relatives of the original owner. Does she need to risk her life to save others?
Do you really want to stay and save people?
Even if Yao Shu thought of the method of putting the Mongolian sweat medicine in the food for the soldiers to eat, and knocking the people down directly, there would still be risks.
Once they eat together, or if a problem is discovered, Yao Shu, as the initiator, will probably have to see the King of Hell.
Yao Shu stayed on the spot for half a stick of incense before making a choice. She had no choice but to ignore death. Since she had occupied the body of the original owner, she had to bear the corresponding responsibilities.
After confirming her thoughts, she quickly searched for edible food in the mountains and forests.
After more than half an hour, everyone finally found food. They boiled water in a pot and started cooking and eating.
There were many young women and girls in their group. In these troubled times, they were the easiest to be targeted. Not long after, thieves came over and moved their hands restlessly.
"Young lady, you look really good. You will have a lot of fun with me later."
"Don't touch me!"
Qiong Niang was frightened and quickly backed away, her voice was very sharp.
"Be honest with me. If you don't eat the toast, you will be fined."
In the blink of an eye, Qiong Niang was slapped to the ground by a bandit soldier, completely devoid of any humanity.
"Ah!"
The women were so frightened that they screamed and retreated subconsciously, fearing that they would be the next unlucky ones.
Seeing what happened in front of her, Yao Shu felt a surge of anger in her chest. As a woman, she couldn't bear to see such a thing, but she still had some sense left and did not act rashly.
Otherwise, not only will you not be able to save others, but you will also get yourself involved.
She looked around her surroundings, looking for something she could use to borrow strength. She heard the sharp female voice in her ears, constantly interfering with her thoughts. Finally, her eyes were fixed on the steaming soup pot.
Using the cover of the crowd, she kicked the soup pot to the ground, and a good pot of food was wasted.
"Oh, my wild vegetable porridge! Stop being so crowded. The food we finally found is all gone now!"
"What should we do? We can't let the military master go hungry."
Yao Shu said hypocritically.
The reason why she acted like this was just to attract the attention of the person wearing armor in the distance. At a glance, she knew that the person was the leader of the bandits. Among all the people present, she was the one who had the ability to stop this farce. It was just him.
Only when interests are violated can the other party be forced to intervene.
"You clumsy old thing, you can't even do this kind of work, what's the use of keeping you..."
The soldier who had previously beaten and scolded Qiong Niang was seen walking towards Yao Shu. He also took off the whip from his waist and held it in his hand.
Seeing this posture, everyone became quiet instantly, and the noisy noise disappeared, for fear that the whip would fall on them in the end.
And Yao Shu was also worried.
Faced with such a situation, she was naturally very scared, but since she chose to come forward, she could only bear the consequences.
Now, there was no way she could escape.
Yao Shu took a few steps back and walked to the edge of the fire. If it didn't work, she could only use the firewood to defend herself. She couldn't just stand there and wait to die stupidly.
As the thieves approached step by step, Yao Shu felt more and more pressure. Just when she was about to take precautions, a voice came.
"Just be honest and stop making trouble. I'll let you do whatever you want after dinner."
The bandit leader warned coldly.
His words were still very authoritative. The bandits in front of Yao Shu immediately stopped their hands and said viciously.
"You wait for me."
Seeing the other party leave, Yao Shu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she made the right bet.
The crisis was temporarily over, but everyone looked at Yao Shu with sympathy. The thieves would never let her go.
Even though the thieves had left, no one came close to her for fear of being implicated accidentally.
Yao Shu's eyes swept over everyone, and she didn't care much when she saw everyone's evasive glances. It's human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Besides, her relationship with the people in Dahe Village was already mediocre and even a lot dirty. It was good that the current situation didn't add insult to injury.
But she still had something to do. Yao Shu looked at the remaining cauldrons and thought about where to go first.
"Auntie, are you okay?"
Just as she was thinking about the problem, Qiong Niang came over.
From Yao Shu's point of view, although Qiongniang is married, she is still a teenager. She looks really pitiful with tears on her face. Otherwise, she would not have rashly intervened. She really can't stand it. .
"I am fine."
"It's all my fault, auntie. I know you did this to save me."
Qiongniang had just married to Dahe Village and had only heard a little about the original owner's reputation. She had never been blackmailed by the Shen family. She was not a fool. Although she was panicked just now, she still understood Yao Shu's intention.
Qiong Niang was naturally very grateful to the person who saved her from danger.
Yao Shu didn't seek anything in return when she rescued people, but she was quite pleased that the other party was so understanding, and her work was not in vain.
"It's not your fault, I just can't see it."
There was no time to delay now. The porridge was almost ready. She quickly walked to the fire and stood by the pot. She turned her back to the soldiers and lowered her voice to the woman beside her.
"Do you want to save people?"
"How can we save this? You'd better stop messing around."
"That's right, don't harm us instead. It's not us who are going to be in trouble. They will let us go after they have eaten and drank enough."
As soon as Yao Shu opened her mouth, everyone objected, as if she was harming rather than saving people.
She never thought that everyone was still holding on to this idea of luck. Isn't this a dream?
To the thief soldiers, they were like fat sheep brought to their doorstep. No bones would be left if they were not eaten. How could they let them go? It would be too naive to have such an idea.
"Do you think it's possible? Can you bear to pick up the food when you see it on the ground?"
