Sweet Dreams in Famine Years: The System Leads to a Brilliant Life

After all, she had already taken away all the gold, silver and jewelry in the storehouse. If her family were to get more food, Zeng Zhengen would never get over it. Seeing her firm attitude, Pan Yang no longer insisted.

After the food was distributed, everyone started to make a fire and cook. The villagers had been tied up in the mountain village for so long and had not eaten anything. Now that the food was distributed, they naturally had to fill their stomachs first.

After dinner, everyone found their own rooms to rest. At this time, the robbers in the village had been tied up in the cave, and all the rooms in the village were vacated. The villagers only needed to make simple arrangements before moving in.

Zeng Zhengen and his family chose a courtyard near the cave. There were four rooms in the courtyard. Zeng Zhengen and his three children lived in one room, Zeng's parents lived in one room, Zeng Siyuan and his wife lived in one room, and the remaining room was for Zeng Sirui and his sister.

Since fleeing the famine, except for the time they stayed in a village, this was the first time they lived in a real room. At night, Zeng Zhengen thought she could sleep comfortably, but for some reason, she tossed and turned and could not fall asleep until the second half of the night when she fell into a drowsy dream.

Perhaps because they had slept so soundly for the first time in such a long time, everyone woke up very late the next day. It was not until the sun was high in the sky that the villagers woke up one after another.

Zeng Zhengen was awakened by the noise coming from the cave. While the villagers were busy making breakfast, the robbers in the cave also woke up one after another.

The one-eyed man was the most skilled among the robbers, so he was the first to wake up. He felt sore all over, and just as he was about to turn over, he suddenly found himself tied up with ropes, and was shocked. He tried to use his inner strength to shake the ropes free, but failed after several attempts. Looking around, he saw the other robbers sleeping like dead pigs, and the one-eyed man was instantly furious.

"Wake up, everyone! Do you hear me? You are all sleeping like dead pigs!" His angry roar echoed throughout the cave, and the robbers woke up one after another.

"Boss... Boss, what happened? Why are we all tied up?" the robbers asked hurriedly, with expressions of fear on their faces.

"I also want to know what's going on!" The one-eyed man roared, his face full of unwillingness.

"Don't worry, we will use our inner strength to break the rope in a moment." The second in command tried to calm everyone. After a brief panic, he began to regain his confidence, thinking that it was a pipe dream that a mere rope could trap them.

How is it possible? This rope is so strong? He was puzzled.

At this time, the other robbers in the cave were still looking at him expectantly, "Second in command, hurry up and use your inner strength to shake them off!" an impatient robber urged, and the robbers around him nodded in agreement.

The second in command's face darkened slightly, and he shouted to his brothers below: "Don't worry, I still need to prepare!"

He took a deep breath and urged his inner strength again, but he couldn't shake the strong rope no matter what. As time went by, a layer of cold sweat oozed out of the second in command's forehead, and he began to panic.

At this moment, the one-eyed man finally spoke: "Second brother, don't waste your energy. This rope can't be broken. I've tried it before!"

As soon as he said this, the robbers' faces turned pale. It's over. They are probably going to be in trouble today.

"Brother, who are the people who kidnapped us?" the second in command asked anxiously.

The one-eyed man lowered his head and pondered for a moment. The vague figure before he fell into a coma last night flashed through his mind. Although he didn't want to believe it, he vaguely felt that the enemy this time was definitely not simple. How could a woman let them surrender?

Seeing the one-eyed dragon remained silent, the second in command became even more anxious: "Brother, are we going to be tied up in this cave forever?"

"Do you have a better idea?" the one-eyed man asked, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

The second in command was choked by this and was speechless. In the end, he chose to shut up and stop talking. The robbers waited silently in the cave until the sky gradually brightened. The feeling of hunger became stronger and stronger, but no one came to visit them. On the contrary, the fragrance of food came from outside, making it even more unbearable.

The robbers finally couldn't sit still anymore and started shouting loudly, trying to attract attention outside.

Zeng Zhengen and her family lived in the courtyard closest to the cave, and the noise outside woke her up. Feeling dissatisfied, she simply washed up and headed straight for the cave.

Without hesitation, she picked up a whip and whipped the robbers in the cave.

"Snap!" The whip fell heavily on the bodies of the robbers who were shouting the loudest, making a crisp sound.

"What are you arguing about? It's so early in the morning and you can't let us sleep!" Zeng Zhengen shouted angrily to everyone in the cave.

The robbers who were picked out originally wanted to fight back, but when they saw Zeng Zhengen's aggressive look, they were so scared that they dared not say a word and fell silent.

When the one-eyed man saw Zeng Zhengen, he showed an expression of disbelief, as if he was constipated. He never thought that he and his men would be captured by the refugees who were captured yesterday.

The second in command was also shocked, "You...how could you have such strength?" He looked at Zeng Zhengen in front of him in disbelief.

Zeng Zhengen smiled coldly, his eyes sweeping across the robbers like a knife, "How does it feel to be tied up? Do you think it's fun?"

The robbers in the cave felt the smile on her face, and their hearts tightened, and fear spread. Soon, several timid robbers knelt on the ground and began to beg, "No... no, we know we were wrong, we were blind yesterday, please forgive us, heroine!"

Zeng Zhengen glanced around and found that most of the robbers begging for mercy were the ones who surrounded them in the canyon yesterday. She curled her lips slightly and sneered in her heart, "It's not impossible for me to let you go, but you have to do one thing."

The robbers held their breath, waiting for her next words.

"Kill that one-eyed man for me, and maybe I can leave you alive."

Zeng Zhengen did not forget what the robbers had said before, that this one-eyed man wanted to eat human flesh.

If we don't kill this scumbag, are we going to keep him around for the New Year?

As soon as Zeng Zhengen said this, the robbers became frightened.

"Female...female warrior, can you change the conditions?"
