Chapter 41 41 Seeing is believing
Song Qingzhai saw what she was thinking, smiled lightly, and let go of her hand, "You can give it a try."

Xu Ji unpacked his purse, took out the greased paper bag, and distributed the snacks inside to these children. There were eight small pieces in total, exactly one piece for each child.

When the snack arrived in their hands, the children stuffed it into their mouths without any hesitation, swallowed it without chewing it, then swallowed, smacked their lips, and continued to stare at Xu Ji.

Xu Ji smiled helplessly, turned his purse upside down, and signaled: "It's gone."

A smaller child slipped under the soldier's crotch and went straight to Xu Ji.

Song Qingzhai didn't stop him, knowing that such a young child couldn't do any harm to Xu Ji.

The child snatched the purse and touched it with his dirty little hand for a long time, but found nothing, so he burst into tears with a "wow".

Before Xu Ji could react, he sat down on the ground, wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, and cried harder.

Has Xu Ji ever seen such a scene?Being at a loss, he could only turn his head to look at Song Qingzhai.

Song Qingzhai's expression was calm, and he only slightly curled the corners of his lips, which meant: it's not over yet.

Almost at the same time, a woman in ragged clothes and disheveled hair rushed out, raised her eyebrows and shouted at Xu Ji: "What did you do to my stone? You pay me for my baby!"

Bending down and bowing his head, he bumped into Xu Ji.

There were soldiers blocking him, so he couldn't rush forward.

Xu Ji wanted to explain a few words, but Song Qingzhai said flatly, "Just wait and see."

The woman couldn't rush over, so she messed up her hair, tore off her collar, and shouted loudly, "Come here! You're taking advantage of women! You're robbing children!"

But in the blink of an eye, a group of villagers rushed out and surrounded Song Qingzhai and his party. Some of them were holding fire sticks, some were holding broken pot lids, and some were waving brooms. People who bully our village don’t want to live anymore!”

At first, seeing Song Qingzhai's bodyguards were fierce, he was a little apprehensive, but thinking of the huge disparity in the number of the two sides, he became more courageous, and stepped forward to fight with the soldiers.

Xu Ji could clearly hear someone saying: "The clothes on these people are all good. We wear them ourselves. It would be even better if we had money on our bodies. We don't have to worry about eating and drinking!"

"Killed, dug and buried, who will know if it will work? We are peaceful people!"

"It's a pity to bury it, it's better to eat..."

Xu Ji frowned and pursed his lips. Driven by hunger, is human nature really so ugly?
Only then did Song Qingzhai say unhurriedly: "Have you seen it? What I told you yesterday was not an exaggeration."

Xu Ji sighed softly, "Now we are surrounded, how can we get out?" Even though she had supernatural power, she still felt helpless.

Song Qingzhai was as calm as ever: "Just watch."

His own soldiers were no small matter, they knocked all the villagers to the ground in just a few moments, but they didn't hurt them, they just temporarily lost their mobility.

Xu Ji let out a sigh of relief, this is still the case in the suburbs of Beijing, let alone other places?Could it be that she really couldn't find lost things?

Song Qingzhai patted her on the shoulder, motioning her to look around.

Xu Ji turned his head and saw a mighty team approaching the mule cart. In addition to the whole bag of grain, there were also several large iron pots that could cook meals for twenty people at the same time.

Soon, the team arrived, unloaded the car immediately, quickly used local materials to build a stove and pot, asked the villagers where the well was, went to fetch water, washed the pot, washed the rice and started cooking porridge.
