Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 503 Bandits
Every time there are new supplies, something happens immediately that makes Yao Shu use the supplies.
During this period, as the Shen family continued to develop, she also used some things one after another.
Now, there were not many things left in the package, and the only valuable thing was the grenade that he had never been willing to use.
If he could get the gunpowder formula, wouldn't he make more money?
Yao Shu had been hoping that the system would reward her with a formula, but it turned out that she had thought too much.
This time the road was smooth and no obstacles were encountered.
Seeing that it was not convenient to travel at night, they rested where they were.
There is really no way to resist the cold outside in winter. Fortunately, the Shen family brought their tents with them before, and now is the time to put them to use.
The Shen family gathered around the fire, looked at the map, and began to discuss how long it would take to reach their destination.
They thought the disaster area was not very far away, but as time passed, they realized that their previous destination was much further than they thought.
Seeing their dejected looks, Yao Shu comforted them softly: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to be so dejected. Although the journey is long, the emperor's seal has not arrived yet. Even if we rush to the disaster area, we can't do much."
The Shen family members looked at each other and felt that Yao Shu was right.
A few people thought about it and decided that they had nothing to do, so they prepared to go back to the tent to rest early.
They made an agreement with General Ling to meet in the next city. They are now three days ahead of schedule, so they are not worried about missing the appointment.
Just when a few people thought they could have a peaceful sleep, they suddenly heard a faint sound coming from outside.
Yao Shu opened her eyes and looked around cautiously.
When I tried to listen again, I heard nothing.
She frowned subconsciously and called Shen Nanshan beside her.
Shen Nanshan is a careless person. After experiencing yesterday's ghost incident, he thinks that any strange things are just pretending, so he sleeps very peacefully now.
Yao Shu really couldn't bear it, so she slapped him hard on the face.
Shen Nanshan woke up immediately, looked at Yao Shu's angry look, and said in a panic, "I'm here, what happened?"
"Keep your voice down. What sound do you hear outside?"
There was a faint rustling sound outside, which was particularly obvious.
Shen Nanshan turned over nonchalantly: "It's just the sound of wild beasts. Our tent is very strong, and wild beasts cannot rush in and attack us."
"It's winter now, where are the wild beasts? And although we are in the mountains now, there are often people coming and going in this place. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be so many wild beasts." Yao Shu hated that iron cannot become steel, and faced Another slap to his face.
This time Shen Nanshan came to his senses completely, listened carefully for a moment, and really felt that the time was wrong.
"Is it really not a beast?" Shen Nanshan asked strangely.
"Is that what your beast sounds like?" Yao Shu couldn't bear it anymore and was about to slap him again when the door curtain was suddenly opened.
The last big man appeared in front of them immediately: "You are right, this is indeed not the sound of a wild beast."
They encountered bandits.
Yao Shu turned her head and glanced at Shen Nanshan in despair. This was thousands of times more terrifying than a wild beast.
The two people looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Brother, we are just passing by here now and have no other intentions. We didn't know that this was your territory before, so we didn't prepare anything. We don't know what the eldest brother wants. We will write a letter to our family now. Send them here." Yao Shu was also a person who knew the rules. She knew what the bandits wanted secondly, so she intercepted them.
This sturdy man seemed to be the leader of the bandits. He held up the big knife in his hand and kept gesticulating in front of them: "Stop these useless things. You must be obedient in my hands. If there is any resistance, I will I’ll chop you up and feed them to wild boars.”
Hearing this, Yao Shu immediately promised: "Brother's words are serious. We have no other thoughts. We just want him to spare our lives. We all have cheap lives and are worthless. If eldest brother Killing us will also dirty the knife in your hand."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on his lips: "You are quite sensible."
After saying that, he pulled the two of them out of the tent, and Yao Shu saw the three brothers tied up on the other side at a glance.
The so-called family is to be neat and orderly, and nothing better than this.
Several people were tied together, with absolutely no place to struggle.
Several other bandits carefully searched all three people's carriages.
The strange thing is that they did not steal any silver or food, but seemed to be rummaging for something.
Then someone immediately walked up to the big man and said in a low voice: "Boss, we didn't find anything. There is nothing wrong with these people."
The burly man seemed not to believe what the man said. He raised his eyebrows and came to the Shen family, pointing a knife at them: "Did you really not bring anything here?"
The Shen family felt baffled.
Shen Bei couldn't help but say: "Our family just packed up and left because we couldn't survive in the capital. I don't know what the eldest brother is looking for, so he mobilized so many people."
"Looking at you, you don't seem to have the guts. In that case, let's go and don't stay here too long. If you are caught again, we will blame you for being rude."
The sturdy man waved the knife in his hand and immediately untied the ropes that bound them.
Several people looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine he bought in the gourd.
No one dared to take action without permission, for fear that the bandits would suddenly repent and kill them all.
After all, they didn't know what the bandits were looking for, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
Seeing that the bandits were about to leave, Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.
He subconsciously turned around to check what was on the carriage, but accidentally dropped the token in his arms.
The token is made of copper, and the sound of falling to the ground is very obvious.
The sturdy man immediately turned his head, and several other people gathered around him, all pointing knives at them.
The sturdy man picked up the token and sneered: "I thought you really couldn't survive in the capital. It turns out you are an official. It's really disrespectful. But your status is so special, why didn't you tell me earlier. We brothers No matter what, I have to entertain you well so that your visit is worthwhile."
