After experiencing so many things together, the patrol team is no longer the simple novices it was back then.
It is not a good thing for the villagers to have disaster victims passing by.
Other villages even ignored their relatives just for a bite to eat, not to mention these victims who had fled all the way from the north?
It can only be said that their ability to reach this point is enough to arouse vigilance.
Still the highest specification!
"Uncle Six, why do I think this person is so evil?"
"You won't steal our food, will you?"
"No, no one can take away a grain of rice from us!"
"Yes, the worst is to get involved with them. !"
"That's right, we bandits have been beaten down, why are we still afraid of the victims?"
Uncle Liu slowly raised his hand, and the chattering patrol team was silenced for an instant.
"Why panic?"
Since the snowstorm began, these three words have become the mantra of the Shen clan leader.
"You're such a big man, can you stay calm?"
The patrol team shrank subconsciously. No matter how much they improved in martial arts, they were really scared to face Uncle Six.
"Go tell the people patrolling at the entrance of the village to be polite to the victims. It's not easy for them all the way. Take care of those who can take care of them.
If you just come to ask for directions and ask for hot water, we are not the kind to refuse to save them. People.
If the comers are evil and want to force their way into the village, use your skills. We are not vegetarians."
Uncle Six looked around with a serious expression, "The victims this time are just the beginning. They will arrive one after another in the future. There will only be more people in Lin'an Mansion, so we can't take it lightly."
The patrol team nodded one after another, "I know Uncle Six, we won't embarrass Shenjia Village."
"Each go and do your own work, let's break up
the patrol ." In fact, the team members knew what to do and came to see Uncle Six just for reassurance. After hearing this, they felt relieved and returned to their posts one after another.
After everyone left the ancestral hall, only Shen Mantun, Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi, who had arrived late, were left beside the sixth uncle.
The head of the Shen family looked even uglier than before.
"Alas -"
He has lived to such an old age and can think of far more things than the people on the patrol.
I'm afraid this is just the beginning.
"Sixth uncle, are you worried that the victims will gather and cause trouble?"
Shen Xingluo put it bluntly.
Uncle Six nodded slowly, "The city gates of Lin'an Prefecture are closed. The victims came all the way here just to survive. If the prefect does not open the city gates, it will definitely cause panic in the long run." When
people are forced to do so, they Don't care about anything.
"I hope Governor Zhou can change his mind for the sake of the victims."
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi looked at each other and fell silent.
***
The first batch of victims were stunned by the neat houses in the village from a distance, and they didn't even know they had stopped without knowing it.
"Why is this place different from other villages?"
"Yes, half of the collapsed houses in other places are intact, but here every household is intact?" "
Their roofs are so clean, there is not even a trace of snow. ?"
"Smoke is floating in many yards, hiss - it smells so good!"
The victims were already hungry, and even when they smelled the rice, they thought it was the most delicious food in the world.
What's more, what's wafting out of Shen's village is the smell of meat!
Meat, they haven't smelled it in half a year.
I really want to panic!
Everyone subconsciously gathered at the entrance of the village, and soon there was a large pile of ragged victims.
It was at this time that Lian Hu, who was five tall and three thick, appeared in front of him.
Eight people lined up neatly and stood behind Lian Hu, all of them looking strong and healthy, with glowing faces.
It gives people the impression that they are not easy to mess with at first glance.
The victims reflexively took a few steps back the moment they saw them.
That's a safe distance from strangers.
Lian Hu was too tall. The muscles on his face and wrists were obvious. He was not as thin as he should be during a snowstorm. He was carrying a bow full of arrow feathers on his back.
Dressing like this would attract the attention of others even in normal times, let alone now?
And there are eight strong men of the same size behind him!
The vigilance in the minds of the victims was instantly heightened. If there was a soundtrack, it would definitely be at the level of a police car clearing the way.
"Everyone, I am a hunter from the village. Are you here to visit relatives or friends?" "
."
"Everyone?"
Lian Hu saw the wariness on their faces and pretended not to know and asked again.
"Ah, strong man, we...we want to find out how to get to Lin'an Fucheng."
Originally, he wanted to ask about the situation in the village, but now he couldn't say a word.
So what if the houses in the village didn't collapse, and what if the smell of meat was wafting?
Look at your starved body, only skin and bones are left, and then look at the other person and forget about it.
They just want to get out of here now!
"Are you passing by? You can see the city gate 20 miles further."
"Man, thank you brave man for showing the way."
"But..."
Lian Hu paused for a moment, "The city gate was closed three months ago. No one else can get in."
"What?!"
These words instantly exploded among the victims, and everyone looked in disbelief.
"Zhuangshou, what does it mean that the city is closed? Can't we get in?"
They went through a lot of hard work to get to Lin'an Mansion, and they lost many relatives on the way. Who never expected that they couldn't get in?
This is how to do!
This is blocking their only way to survive!
Lian Hu nodded without saying anything:
"The village near us has not entered the city for a long time, and it has been guarded by city troops for a long time. Are you refugees from the city in the north? Then you may want to ask the defenders about the prefect. Your Majesty."
"Ah, yes, we are victims of the disaster, there is no way we are not allowed in!"
"It makes sense, the prefect is an official, how could he not save him even if he dies?" "
Let's go to the city gate now and ask. !"
"Go, go!"
Everyone ignored the fear of the patrol and headed in the other direction, their tired legs moving as fast as if they were equipped with motors.
Lian Hu watched the group of people leave with a bit of pity in his eyes.
The prefect didn't even care about the people of Lin'an Prefecture. He didn't give them the opportunity to go to the prefecture to buy food, and left them to fend for themselves outside the city gate.
With such a xinxing, how could he possibly let you in?
It would be okay if there was a decree for disaster relief from the capital, but if not,
Lian Hu slowly shook his head and sighed, imitating 90% of his uncle's behavior.
Even if there is a will, it is not easy to transport rice from the north.
Compared with the life of the victims, the life in Shenjiacun was like eating, drinking and having fun. It was like living in paradise.
"Brothers, you have to work harder these days. Guard all entrances and exits in the village!" The
eight people behind him nodded in unison, their faces full of determination.
We must protect the village!
