But it doesn’t matter. My current supernatural powers, plus the natural power of this body, are enough.

When it was daybreak and the aroma of rice was wafting over the woods, Shen Changshan and his group returned with water. Shen Changshan and Shen Jingyuan poured the water into the water tank, with more than half a bucket left.

Although it was morning and the temperature was not as high as during the day, the father and son's clothes were soaked after all this.

Lin Cuicui quickly asked them to change, and then the family sat down to eat breakfast. The breakfast was brown rice porridge and coarse flour pancakes. The pancakes were fried in oil until both sides were golden brown, and they were served with slightly spicy pickles, which went perfectly with the white porridge.

Shen Li took her breakfast and sat outside the carriage to eat. Although the breakfast was simple, her mother was a good cook and could make simple meals delicious.

After breakfast, the villagers of Sanli Village were packing up to set off. At this time, a group of more than ten people in cloth clothes came from the front.

People who saw it took up weapons to demonstrate. Shen Zhenyuan stood at the front with a crutch. Next to him stood Lin Hu, Shen Changshan and others. Behind him were more than thirty villagers holding sticks and sickles.

The leader was about 30 years old. He stood 5 meters away from them and said kindly:

"I'm sorry to bother you all. I'm Wang Yue, the village chief of Shangyang Village."

Shen Zhenyuan's expression was not friendly. He knew this group of people who were stationed in front of them. They came here at this time probably because of the water problem.

"What's wrong with you?"

Wang Yue looked at their expressions and knew that his group was not welcome, but he didn't take it to heart.

If they had discovered the water here last night, people from both villages might have started a fight. Now that they staggered the time, they were able to avoid a conflict.

"It's like this. I'm sorry to bother you so rashly. People in our village saw you fetching water this morning. Can you tell us where the water source is?"

Shen Zhenyuan clenched the crutch in his hand. The people from Shangyang Village really came for the water source.

They were now going to continue their journey. This group of people had a good attitude and it didn't matter where Shuiyuan told them to go.

"Okay, we're leaving soon and won't be leading you."

Wang Yue immediately smiled and waved his hand to refuse: "Don't bother, just tell us the location and we will find it ourselves."

Shen Zhenyuan nodded and asked Shen Changshan and Lin Hu to tell them the location of the water source in detail.

Water resources are very important now. If someone discovers it and tells you about it, it is a great favor. You can't force anything else.

Wang Yue led a dozen villagers to bow deeply to the people of Sanli Village, "Thank you very much."

Only then did he lead his men back to his own base.

The people from Sanli Village had already packed up and were pushing their things onto the official road, continuing to move forward. When they passed by Shangyang Village, no one paid much attention to them.

Shen Li turned her head to look at the villagers of Shangyang Village. Their number was not as large as that of Sanli Village. When they saw a group of them passing by, the men in the village also stood up and blocked the front of the team.

Shen Li withdrew her gaze and continued to drive the mule cart. The speed of travel was much faster today, but fortunately, a water source was found yesterday. The villagers did not complain too much, but gritted their teeth and continued to move forward.

At this time, Sanli Village and Taohua Town were being looted by refugees.

These refugees are strong and healthy, and their complexions are not as pale and thin as those of other refugees. You can tell at a glance that they are not easy to mess with.

At this moment, they had already fled to Taohua Town and split up their forces to loot the villages below.

If there were anyone who resisted, they would raise their knives and kill them directly. Suddenly, there were wails of pain and complaints everywhere in Taohua Town.

These people are ferocious and merciless to the weak. They can no longer be described as refugees. They are more like bandits composed of refugees.

Almost all the men and the elderly died at their hands, but the children and women were left behind to be sold to other cities.

At the foot of the mountain, the Shen family's home was also looted. After a small group of militiamen walked in, they looked at the empty house and immediately cursed.

The elderly in the village and those villagers who were still hoping for a lucky break and did not seek refuge with their relatives, some of them were quick to know that the refugees were coming, and had already packed their bags and taken their families to the mountains to escape the disaster.

Some people encountered ferocious militiamen as soon as they left their homes, and their lives ended there.

These refugees have experienced too much, their psychology has been distorted, and they are no longer ordinary people. They believe that the reason they left their homes and lost their wives and children is because of the inaction of the court.

So when they see those people who are happy and living a fulfilling life, their minds become distorted again and they raise their butcher knives against innocent people.

Shen Li and the others didn't know what was happening in Sanli Village at the moment, and even if they knew it would be of no use.

I had told you long ago that refugees would come here, but they didn't listen. All I can say is it's just the timing and fate.

……

Pei Yu encountered many ambushes on his way back to Beijing, a small wave every three days and a large wave every five days, but this time was the most serious.

So much time has passed, and his internal strength has not yet recovered. He has been injured along the way, either on the way to recovery or on the way to recuperation, as a result, he has not returned to the capital yet.

Now they were finally only 100 miles away from the capital, but there were hundreds of men in black surrounding them.

Pei Yu rode on a black horse, looking coldly at the killer in front of him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Haha, these people really think highly of me!

This time, they actually hired the red-level killers from the Seven Killing Pavilion, and they hired 100 of them at once.

The red-level killer of Qisha Pavilion costs 100 taels of gold to hire one person.

There were 100 red-level assassins ambushing him, which was quite a big deal!

Spend 1 taels of gold to take his life!

Oh, Pei Yu’s life is only worth this little money?

Who are you looking down on?

Tian Qing behind him couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he saw the red-level killer in front of him. No matter how powerful he and his master were, even if they tried their best to kill these people, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be more people coming later.

Fortunately, fortunately, the master is a man of foresight and knows that the most difficult hurdle must be the checkpoint before entering Beijing.

If not for this, he would have lost his life here this time.

The atmosphere between the two sides was tense and the battle was about to break out. Pei Yu made a gesture and the secret guards hidden in the woods immediately appeared and blocked the red-level killer from the Seven Kill Pavilion.

A quarter of an hour later, Pei Yu's side successfully killed all the red-level killers with the advantage of large numbers.

Looking at the people lying on the ground in front of him, Pei Yu raised his lips in a good mood, "Tianqing, go give them a big gift."

"Yes."

Tianqing had followed Pei Yu for a long time, and obviously knew what this "big gift" he was talking about was.

In the middle of the night, in a low-key yet luxurious bedroom, a beautiful woman woke up slowly and saw a densely packed human head hanging above her bed, staring at her with wide eyes, and blood dripping on her face. Her face immediately turned pale.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
