Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

"I shouldn't have had such sudden thoughts."

It was her inappropriate kindness that forced the mother to leave the team just to survive.

Although the mother was not beaten, she suffered injuries more serious than losing her life.

"Miss, the fact that the mother was able to bring her child here alive means that she already knew what she would face. She won't blame you. Maybe she will thank you."

What Lian Yunxi didn't say was that although the mother and her child were expelled from the team in disguise, this also allowed some people in the team to see some opportunities.

An opportunity to take advantage of the weak to gain sympathy and gain benefits, and the mother will have more chances to survive because of this opportunity.

Although Lian Yunxi did not say anything explicitly, Ye Chuyi understood it from his expression.

Bullying has always existed, hasn't it?

"Thank you."

Ye Chuyi forced a smile, lowered the curtain, leaned back in the car and closed his eyes.

Lian Yunxi didn't bother him anymore, lifted the car curtain and walked out.

When they came out, they specifically asked Li Laihu and others to follow them. They were all dressed in formal official uniforms.

Although the refugees on the road tried to approach them, they silently took a few steps back after seeing everyone's unhappiness.

Although there was no drama of robbing cars and food, many people followed them silently.

It seems that as long as I follow them like this, I can see a glimmer of hope.

We were not heartless people, so we just walked along the way.

"Stop, who are you?"

"Hello, sir. We are all members of a traveling merchant group. We are passing by here and would like to rest. I hope you can give us some favors."

As Wang Dachui spoke, he stuffed a few taels of silver into the captain's hand, "Take this money and have tea with your brothers. It's also a small token of my appreciation."

The captain of the guard took the silver into his arms without making a sound. His cold voice softened a few degrees in an instant. "The city has been under strict surveillance recently. We should take out the documents and have them checked. It will be good for all of us."

"Your Excellency is right. We all carry them with us and will never cause you any trouble."

As Wang Dachui spoke, he took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms.

Fortunately, he stopped Liu Gentou and the others when they were about to throw it away, otherwise there would be nothing they could do.

"I have been keeping this thing close to me all this time. I didn't pay attention to it while I was on the road. I didn't expect it to become like this. It's really a sin."

The captain of the guard took the document and looked at it carefully, then slowly shifted his gaze from Wang Dachui to the team behind him.

"The document says that there is another adult leading your team. Why don't I see this adult?"

As the man spoke, he took a few steps closer to the carriage and pretended to lift the curtain.

Wang Dachui broke out in a cold sweat instantly. How could this happen?

When he looked at it, he didn't notice these contents in the document. How did this person find them? !

"My Lord, my Lord."

Wang Dachui wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his face, walked quickly up to the captain of the guard and smiled flatteringly.

"What? Are you going to stop me from doing my official duties?" The captain of the guard looked at him with displeasure, and his hand slowly reached for the knife at his waist.

It was as if as long as he could say yes, he would be stabbed in the neck.

Wang Dachui swallowed nervously, and the smile on his face became even more flattering. "How dare I? I just want to tell you, sir, that there is indeed an adult in our team, but she is not feeling well right now. If I go over to check on her rashly, I'm afraid I'll disturb her..."

Wang Dachui carefully looked around as he spoke, and quickly moved a few steps closer to the captain of the guards. He lowered his voice and said, "Our lady has a bad temper. If we disturb her without reason, I'm afraid she will be wronged."

"Who would be afraid of being wronged when performing one's duties?" The man looked at Wang Dachui with a little disdain, and walked forward with a firmer pace.

She had been observing for quite a while. The third carriage had been firmly guarded in the middle. Perhaps there was something shameful hidden in it.

Not to mention that this is a period of strict investigation, even if they encounter such a situation on a normal day, they will ask extra questions, and maybe they will come across an opportunity to make meritorious service.

Looking at the direction the guard captain was walking, Wang Dachui just wanted to cry.

Why is this guy so stubborn? He has already received the money, but he still doesn't give me face.

Just as he was about to reach out to pull the curtain of the carriage, a sword suddenly pointed out from the side and was placed directly on his neck.

"You can't easily check our lord's carriage." Lian Yunxi's tone was light, but quite imposing.

The captain of the guard couldn't help but swallow his saliva, "My lord, I am also acting according to the rules. I hope you can give me some leniency. I just need to take a look and will never do anything beyond the rules."

Lian Yunxi didn't slow down his movements, but just glanced at him coldly, "You are not qualified yet."

The captain of the guard didn't seem to expect Lian Yunxi to be such a tactless and stubborn person, and his face instantly showed displeasure.

He has been in Qingling Mansion for so many years and everyone he meets has given him some face, but today someone actually dared to ignore him.

"Since this Lord is determined to stop us from doing what we want, then don't blame us for coming to rob."

As soon as he finished speaking, the armored guards who had been standing obediently on both sides of the city gate instantly raised their weapons and pointed them at Lian Yunxi and the others, as if they would rush over at once with just one order.

They had people, and there were also quite a few people on Yunxi's side. Almost at the same time, they all raised their weapons.

After receiving the rewards from the merchant team, Ye Chuyi quickly replaced their people with new equipment.

At this moment, the two sides were confronting each other with weapons, and they actually had the momentum to overwhelm the guards with just their weapons.

The captain of the guard was no fool. Naturally, when he saw the weapons in their hands, his eyes darkened.

The quality of this weapon is not something that an ordinary merchant team can possess. This group of people must be up to something. I just don’t know what their purpose in coming to Qingling Mansion is.

[Host, if you don't wake up, they will really start fighting!]

Baizai was screaming frantically in the system space.

Ye Chuyi was annoyed to death, and finally opened his eyes reluctantly.

"Even if he wakes up, what can he do? After all, he is just a bought little county magistrate. Can he order them to do anything?"

Ye Chuyi said this and slowly got out of the carriage.

"Who is so blind as to disturb my rest? Are you tired of living?"
