Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

Seeing that everyone's thoughts had strayed again, Ye Chuyi had no choice but to give orders directly.

"Wang Chengde, take a few people to find Zhu Hezhu. If he refuses to cooperate, you can just tie him up."

Wang Chengde nodded silently, turned around and left with a few people.

Niu and Zhu might not know that the matter had been exposed yet. After everyone else came back, they also came back. Now they are gathered not far from the camp, sharing food with others.

"Zhao Wenzhu, you guys find a way to wake these people up. You can interrogate them directly, or use some special means if necessary."

Ye Chuyi said this and handed over the dagger he had exchanged from the system mall.

Don't be fooled by the ordinary appearance of this dagger, it is a genuine good thing that can cut through iron like mud. It's easy to make those people suffer.

[Host, please pay attention to regulating your words and deeds, do more good deeds, and do not violate the rules.]

As expected, the mechanical sound of the system exploded in his ears. Ye Chuyi turned around and walked into the oilcloth tent with the wolf cub in his hand.

The expected electric shock did not come, but the mechanical sound kept pricking in my ears, making crackling sounds as if the circuit was short-circuited.

Could it be that he was so angry that he died because of such simple things?

Ye Chuyi curled the corners of his lips in a slightly better mood. It seems that this new system is not impeccable.

Bai Zai made a crooked gesture in the air, [Host, you are the best!]

"Don't flatter me. Your problem hasn't been solved yet. Once I've dealt with the things in reality, I will definitely study your problem carefully."

[Host, I know I was wrong. For the sake of Dong Yaoyao, who is still a cub, please forgive me. I beg you, host sister~]

Baizai made a most pitiful expression, with his snow-white front paws resting on Ye Chuyi's legs, his tail constantly supporting her legs, and his voice was soft and cute.

"That doesn't work on me."

Ye Chuyi took a few deep breaths and resisted the urge to rub her tail. She was not the kind of person who would forget everything just by giving her a little sweet treat.

"Aunt, I already know I was wrong. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"

Perhaps she found it funny, Yaya imitated Baizai and made the same expression on Ye Chuyi's other leg.

"Okay, okay, auntie is not angry." Ye Chu grabbed a handful and lifted the two little guys up together.

"Is there any way to keep the little wolf cub hidden? It would be best if it doesn't reveal any aura."

She didn't know whether the wolves attacked them for the little wolf cubs, but she was prepared for the worst. They couldn't withstand another attack from the wolves.

Although most of the wolves have been killed, strange things have happened. There is no telling how many wolf packs there are in such a large forest. If more wolves are attracted, there will be no place to cry.

[I can put the wolf cub into my inner space first, but living things can only stay in there for two hours, otherwise they will die immediately. Host, are you sure you want to put it away?]

The information it overheard from the task system seemed to say that these two little wolf cubs were related to Yaya, so the wolf pack shouldn't be coming, right?

"Put them away first, and when the time comes, remind me to put them out."

After saying that, Ye Chuyi walked out again, lifted the oilcloth curtain, and saw four or five men lying on the ground like dead dogs after being beaten.

"Wang Chengde and the others haven't come back yet?"

"No, how about I go and take a look?" Zhao Wenzhu put down the stick in his hand and wiped his hands casually.

"No. Did they say that?"

Ye Chuyi was not worried about Wang Chengde and the others. They were not far away. If anything had happened, they would have heard it long ago. It was so quiet now, so there must be nothing wrong.

"It was already said after just a few hits, they are all lowly things that are not worthy of being on the table."

Zhao Wenzhu explained in a few words what they had confessed, which was similar to what they knew.

It all started when Ye Chuyi rejected Niu Hezhu's advances. This old man was pushed too high in the village. After he fled the famine, people from several villages he lived with also gave him some face, which made him even more proud.

However, he didn't expect to meet Ye Chuyi, a yellow-haired girl who just wouldn't obey him. What's more, this yellow-haired girl's status was higher than his, so he felt a little uncomfortable.

Especially later, when the people of Willow Village earned food with their skills and the village chief of Dahuaishu Village turned away from him, his heart began to become dark.

It was at this time that he discovered that someone in his village was secretly eating the flesh of the bandits in the woods, so he came up with an idea to do something drastic.

He first secretly sent people to contact the bandits behind him, but those bandits did not believe him and only sent a few people to contact him. Not only did he not get what he wanted, he also lost his money. The old man instantly became a little crazy.

When he got up at night and heard the howling of wolves in the woods, the old man immediately had a vicious idea. He first tricked the men in the village into stealing wolf cubs for meat, and then secretly left things along the way to attract wolves. When the wolves really came to attack, he took his family and hid away.

"This old man is really evil to the core. Not only does he want to hurt the young lady, he even disregards the lives of the people in his own village. They took advantage of the panic and secretly took away the remaining food of many people. I have never seen such a bad person. They should be sent directly to the county government and beheaded."

Du Jiayi became more and more angry as he spoke, and he wished he could beat that old guy up right now.

Ye Chuyi was not too surprised. From the few words in the system, she had already vaguely guessed the general idea. According to the nature of melodramatic literature, the appearance of a few such top-notch works did not seem to be a big deal.

"Miss, it's bad, that old man Niu Hezhu ran away!"

Wang Chengde ran back panting, and threw everything in his hands to the ground with an angry look on his face.

"He actually made a fake person and put it there to fool me. He really ran away a long time ago. I took people to look for him nearby for a long time but couldn't find him."

"Are they all gone?"

Ye Chuyi frowned slightly. When she came back, she clearly saw the old man and his family. Even if she wanted to run, she shouldn't have walked so fast.

In such weather, even an adult man might not be able to run far, let alone the elderly, the weak, women and children with their families.

"This old guy is really a piece of shit. He ran away with his sons, leaving his wife, daughter-in-law and children behind. Not only did he run away, he also took away all the food and money in the house. Now his whole family is still crying."

Aunt Du Er added the words as she walked over here. She had just been going to pack her things and happened to run into that group of crying old, weak, women and children. It was really heartbreaking.
