The middle-aged man walked out after saying that. When he passed the woman making broth, he gave her a bag of something.

The woman who cooked the broth quickly realized what the middle-aged man meant. The corners of her mouth were raised high as she looked at the group of people.

Seeing that the group of people were busy and no one looked at her, the woman quickly opened the medicine bag and sprinkled the contents into three large pots of broth.

Then, while stirring with a spoon, repeat what you just said. "I won't starve to death anymore. I won't starve to death anymore. There is food! Hehehehe..."

Others nearby saw excitement and fear in their eyes when the woman sprinkled the medicinal powder into the broth.

The middle-aged man walked over to Li Zheng and saluted Li Zheng. "This brother, my name is Zhang Gao, and I am their Li Zheng. We are from Qingshui County, Anzhou."

Li Zheng was a little surprised, but did not speak or return the favor. Instead, he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who seemed very honest and simple.

The middle-aged man didn't seem to care at all. He grinned and said: "Looking at you, you are also a village escaping from famine. If I had known that we were walking on the mountain road like you, we wouldn't have been hungry for so long. Fortunately, we rested in this mountain for a while and hunted a lot of prey. Won’t starve to death.”

When Li Zheng heard this, he said: "I see. We are from the same hometown. We are from Bishui County, Anzhou. My name is Li Yuanyuan! Brother Zhang, what is the situation outside now? Where did King Zhao go?"

When Zhang Gao heard Li Zheng mentioning King Zhao, his eyes were immediately filled with hatred. "I heard from fellow fleeing men who were passing by that that bastard had captured Zhangzhou as well. He is probably attacking Anzhou now."

Everyone behind him turned pale when he heard this, and at the same time they felt a little lucky that they had escaped.

Li Qingxiu, who was at the back, was listening to their conversation and looking at the group of refugees opposite. She always felt that something was wrong.

By the way, this team seems to have no children. There are only six or seven women among the dozens of teams. This ratio is too abnormal.

Li Qingxiu was born in a peaceful and happy country. She never imagined that the group of people opposite were what the system called cannibals.

She had the impression that cannibals should be primitive people from the primitive era, so she kept looking at the mountain, looking for any cannibals.

After chatting for a while, everyone in Li Zheng gradually became less wary of the talkative Zhang Gao.

Zhang Gao also enthusiastically invited Li Zheng's team to drink a bowl of hot soup at their place. He also said that the meat would definitely not be enough, but a bowl of hot soup would still be enough to warm the body.

Li Zheng didn't have the guts to take away people's hard-earned food, so he refused again and again.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Gao lowered his face and said unhappily: "Brother Li, you are just trying to prevent me from being my brother! What's wrong with everyone from the same village drinking hot soup? Are you afraid that we will poison you? Don't be afraid! Let’s drink first, and then you can use your bowls and chopsticks to make the soup, okay?”

Due to the great hospitality and the fact that he was from the same hometown, Li Zheng lost his wariness towards Zhang Gao, so he agreed to Zhang Gao's invitation.

Zhang Gao also said as he walked: "My tribesmen were so excited to see you just now because we are so small that we are always bullied, so we decided that if we encounter a big team again, we must ask to go together in order to get protection. That’s why they get so excited when you show up.”

Li Zheng and Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Li Zheng smiled and said: "I see, it's not a big deal. We are all from the same hometown and it's natural to go together."

Zhang Gao's face became even more joyful when he heard Li Zheng agreed. He also thanked Li Zheng profusely.

When Li Qingxiu heard this, she felt something was wrong in her heart even more intensely, but she could not tell what was wrong. Brothers Li Lei and Li Dazhuang also felt the same way.

When they went to the camp of the group, they found that many people in Zhang Gao's team were already drinking soup and eating meat, and some others were queuing up.

Li Zheng said sheepishly: "Brother Zhang, I'm so sorry. There are so many of us making a bowl of broth each, and the bottom of your three pots will be gone."

Zhang Gao waved his hand and said: "Brother Li, what you said is obvious. Since we are from the same hometown and are in the same team, we are naturally blessed to share the same fortune. Besides, if it rains, there will be more prey."

After Zhang Gao finished speaking, he glanced at the hundreds of people behind Li Zheng. With these hundreds of fat sheep, there is plenty of prey!

Li Zheng did not hear the implication of Zhang Gao's words, but nodded happily and said: "Yes, we have only survived by relying on the prey and wild vegetables in the mountains during this period. We really fulfilled the saying that we rely on the mountains to eat the mountains."

Li Qingxiu frowned and looked at the women in Zhang Gao's team who were feasting. The woman didn't use chopsticks to eat, but directly grabbed the meat bones with her dirty and dark-nailed hands to eat.

Looking at the woman's eating appearance, Li Qingxiu suddenly lost her appetite. She might as well go back to her donkey cart. She doesn't want to eat meat and just wants some porridge.

At this time, Li Qingxiu felt that there was something under her foot that was making her feel uncomfortable. As soon as she moved her foot away, she discovered that it was a finger bone without flesh.

Li Qingxiu's eyes widened and she bit her lips to prevent herself from screaming. At this time, she already had a terrifying thought in her mind... Could these people be eating human flesh? !

She then looked at the people in Zhang Gao's team who were eating meat and drinking soup. They were all feasting, as if they were tasting some delicacy in the world.

Li Qingxiu couldn't help but kick away the wet soil nearby and found not only finger bones, but also pieces of ribs without even a trace of meat.

She understood that Zhang Gao and his group were cannibals! What they eat now is soup made from human flesh. No, she had to stop Rizheng and everyone quickly.

At this time, Zhang Gao personally scooped a bowl of soup for Li Zheng. Perhaps because he was afraid that Li Zheng would find something wrong, Zhang Gao did not scoop the meat for Li Zheng.

Li Zheng took the bowl, thanked Zhang Gao and put the bowl to his mouth.

Upon seeing this, Li Qingxiu immediately shouted: "Uncle Li Zheng, don't drink it, that's human soup!"

When Li Zheng heard this, he was so frightened that he let go of his hands. The bowl in his hand fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. The broth in the bowl also fed the ground.

At this time, everyone in Zhang Gao's team raised their heads and looked directly at Li Qingxiu, their eyes were strange and horrifying.

When the brothers Li Lei and Li Dazhuang heard this, they realized. No wonder they always felt that something was wrong. It turned out that these people looked at them as if they wanted to eat them.

Zhang Gao didn't expect to be discovered by this little girl. He showed a naive smile to Li Qingxiu.

"Little girl, this is obviously mutton soup, how can you say it is human meat soup? Look, a bowl of good soup is wasted."

Still pretending? ! Li Qingxiu sneered and kicked the newly dug bones onto the land between Li Zheng and Zhang Gao with his toes.
