Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 220 Falling into the trap (1)

The night stretched infinitely, the showers gradually stopped, and the surroundings were so dark that people felt panicked, as if there were dormant beasts sneaking up on us at any time.

 In the military camp area, soldiers patrolled back and forth holding torches from time to time.

Lu Yuan wore a bamboo hat and stood in the dark, always observing the place where the grain was piled.

“Young Master, will they really come?” Zhao Bin was a little doubtful.

It is already late at night, and no one is seen on the enemy side. Will anyone really come?

Lu Yuan raised his thin lips slightly, forming an inevitable sneer arc.

“The terrain here is rugged and the environment is harsh. This is the only place in the entire Great North where we can survive, but this has long been our land. They have no food, so they will naturally try their best to get it from us.”

Most of these barbarians live outside the borders. They do not belong to any of the three countries. In order to obtain food, they often rob and kill, and they do almost anything evil.

 If such people know that there is food here, they will definitely try their best to get it. Even if they end up being moths attracted to the flame, they will still come.

Although he is young, he has seen everything. Over the years, he has followed Zhao Bin and the two people traveling around, and has seen too many such people. They know that the end may be doomed, but in order to survive, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, they Will try it too.

Lu Yuan sometimes admires them from the bottom of his heart, not for anything else but for their fearlessness in order to survive.

 Only sometimes, he hates them from the bottom of his heart, because in their eyes, survival has become a kind of obsession.

I remember one time, in the Kingdom of Qi Tian, ​​a small village was attacked by barbarians. The place was already desolate and the living environment was very difficult. In order to survive, the barbarians even killed the villagers and ate their meat.

　　He was just fourteen years old at the time and had won three consecutive battles. It was then that he started to earn the title of the undefeated myth.

After leaving the military area, he began to travel to various places. Naturally, he also went to two other places. When passing by the border of Qitian Kingdom, he came across this incident.

Although he had killed many people, he had never seen anyone eat human flesh. It was the most disgusting and horrific thing he had ever seen since he could remember.

Except for Zhao Bin, no one knew that after leaving Qitian Kingdom, he, who had always been physically strong, actually burned for two days and two nights on the way.

Looking back now, I still feel a little nauseous in my heart.

 “Young Master, there’s something going on!”

Zhao Bin narrowed his eyes, stared at the distance and whispered.

Lu Yuan raised the corners of his lips slightly, "He is indeed here."

Humans die for money, and birds die for food. There is no difference between these people and birds.

“Look at the movement, there are a lot of fish coming here, prepare the net, don’t miss it.”

"yes!"

Zhao Bin responded respectfully, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Having been with Lu Yuan for many years, in Zhao Bin's eyes, nothing that Lu Yuan predicted was missed.

 But this time, they waited for a long time, but there was no sign of trouble. He thought that those people might not come this time, but unfortunately, he underestimated those people's thirst for food.

Also, for them, food is life, and nothing is more important than life, so he half expected that they would come.

 He dismissed half of the soldiers who were on guard at night, leaving only a dozen to guard the food area.

 “Young Master, everything is ready.”

Lu Yuan nodded slightly, and he jumped onto a big tree near the military area. Raindrops were dripping on his body, but he seemed unaware and stared at a certain place seriously. .
