Take your own vegetable shop and travel to the desert road

Just when Chen Yu looked forward, there was a noise from the team in front, which made Chen Yu want to know what happened even more.

Not long ago, Zheng Xiang and the others were at the front of the team looking for water and food.

"Brother Tieshan, I think the mountains and forests here are much better than before. You can see green everywhere you look, unlike on the way here before, which was full of dead trees and not green at all.

Why don't you talk to your brother and let him think of a way for us to make a home here. "

When Niu Shugen said this, he carefully observed Niu Tieshan's face. He really didn't want to run away. He couldn't eat well or sleep well these days, and he had to worry about even drinking water. This was not a human life.

"If you want to settle down, just settle down here. I think this mountain is suitable. You can go up the mountain with your whole family. If I, Niu Tieshan, say that I am not a child, I am not a human being."

Bah, let me tell my brother, Niu Shugen, you have the nerve to say it, that is my brother’s decision. If the official doesn’t say anything, what will my brother do?

Is it because my brother doesn’t want to settle down? Is it my brother who wants to escape? It was a drought in our hometown, and not a drop of rain fell for three months, so everyone decided to leave their hometown and go south.

I'm telling you, don't carry it to the shelf for my brother. My brother will do what you do, but I, Niu Tieshan, won't. If I hear you say that in the future, be careful. "

Niu Tieshan sprayed Niu Shugen without even daring to fart, and stayed in the team obediently. Others saw the same thing when they saw Niu Tieshan like this, and did not dare to speak for Niu Shugen at all, for fear of being noticed by Niu Tieshan.

Niu Tieshan stared fiercely at everyone in the team. He wanted to see who dared to lift his brother to a higher place.

Zheng Xiang didn't care about this at all and just walked at the front of the team. Suddenly he smelled the faint smell of blood in the air, and he raised his eyes to look at the forest nearby.

Niu Tieshan thought he had found a source of water or food, so he walked over and said

"Brother Xiang, what's the matter? Is there food in this mountain? Or is there water?"

Zheng Xiang shook his head and said seriously

"Brother Tieshan, I smell the smell of blood. Although it is vague, it can be smelled at the foot of the mountain. I am afraid that there have been heavy casualties on the mountain, so the smell of blood will spread to the foot of the mountain."

These words made Niu Tieshan become serious instantly.

"What you said is true. How could the casualties you mentioned happen when this place is so close to Longyan Town? Do the people in Longyan Town not care?"

"I don't know about that, but if I hadn't gone into the mountain to find the two children yesterday, the team wouldn't have stopped at the city gate. Brother Tieshan, do you think we would have stayed there last night?"

When Zheng Xiang said this, his eyes never left the mountain forest.

After listening to Zheng Xiang's words, Niu Tieshan and the others in the team broke into a cold sweat. If the two children of the Zheng family had not gotten lost yesterday, maybe, it was very possible that they would have settled near this mountain forest.

"Zheng Xiang, are you saying that someone has calculated the time and is waiting for us here?"

"Brother Tieshan is wrong. We are not the ones who are fleeing."

As soon as Zheng Xiang said this, there was obvious panic and noise in the team. Niu Tieshan frowned and looked at the mountain, and then said

"He Yan, take two people back to my brother and tell them to repair it on the spot. I will take the people up the mountain to see what happened."

"Brother Tieshan, Zheng Xiang didn't say there were casualties, why are there still mountains and mountains?"

I don’t know who in the team said this. Niu Tieshan didn’t explain, he just said

"Just listen to me."

Zheng Xiang walked in Niu Tieshan's spirit. After walking into the forest, Zheng Xiang was no longer needed. Others also smelled the smell of blood in his mouth. Niu Tieshan led the way without saying a word.

The scorching sun shines on everyone, but no one feels the heat. They feel like a rabbit dying and a fox grieving. They were the ones who almost died.

I don’t know how long I walked before Niu Tieshan stopped and said in a hoarse voice.

"Stop, it's here."

It is indeed here. There is a spring here where water bubbles out through the stones, but it is mixed with the blood flowing from the scattered limbs and seeps into the soil.

Zheng Xiang looked at these remaining limbs strangely, palms, arms, calves, left feet, right feet, even the body without a head and an unfinished body, what was going on.

If it was murder and robbery, there would be no corpses and heads, and there was no luggage here. Could it be that the other party wanted a living person? This would make sense.

"Zheng Xiang, what do you think happened here?"

Niu Tieshan's words interrupted Zheng Xiang's thoughts. He shook his head and said

"I don't know. If it was a robbery, there wouldn't be only the remaining body parts. There should be corpses and luggage that cannot be taken away. But there is nothing here except the remaining body parts.

Brother Tieshan, why do you think those people do this? "

Zheng Xiang naturally had a guess. This kind of thing has happened since ancient times. Some people took advantage of natural disasters to occupy a large number of fields and displaced people.

Those who are fleeing famine are refugees. Every natural disaster will leave a large vacancy in manpower. Some people take in the refugees and become their slaves, and some people directly take the refugees away to do work inferior to slaves, such as mining. , private soldiers.

He could not determine which situation it was now, and he would not tell his guess. His guess would only cause panic.

Niu Tieshan is not as well-informed as Zheng Xiang, but he has heard from people of the older generation that the things he encountered when he was escaping from famine included arrests similar to those now.

"Let's go back quickly and leave here as soon as possible."

Niu Tieshan's voice was shaking when he said this. He was afraid and wanted to arrest people. Who knows what those people would do if they arrested them. They were just a group of people fleeing from famine. Even if they were arrested, no one would come to rescue them.

The other people in the team didn't dare to say anything when they saw Niu Tieshan's expression. The group hurried down the mountain and walked back.

Chen Yu and Wei Zehan were lying on the ground in a daze. They had not found any water or food. Why did they suddenly have to take a rest? Did something happen to them?

"Sister, sister, what are you thinking about?"

Wei Zehan called out several times but didn't hear Chen Yu's response, so he directly twisted her arm.

Chen Yu came back to his senses in pain and looked at Wei Zehan. Seeing his doubtful eyes, he said half truthfully

"I was just wondering if something happened. Otherwise, why would the team suddenly stop, and dad didn't come back."

Chen Yu was indeed thinking about this. In addition to this, Zheng Xiang took away her boning knife. Her boning knife and her self-defense weapon made her feel lost when she thought of this.

"Dahua, look, dad is back. The team that went out to look for food is back. Hey, why are they all empty-handed?"
