Chapter 39 Prepare for the worst!

"Chairman Tian, ​​let's not crowd here. Let's find a place to settle down first, and then try to cross the river." Shen Yunxi thinks that tears are the most useless.

Village Chief Tian wiped away his tears and nodded: "Yes, even if we are trapped here, the officers and soldiers will not let us pass. Why don't we occupy the best water source as soon as possible, rest for a while, and then think of a way."

Yang Dacui hugged her mother-in-law and comforted her in a low voice, optimistic and full of hope, "Mother, we have been blessed by God. This time we can cross the river."

Old lady Tian has gray hair and sunken eyes.Others only saw that she could not cross the river or go south, but she wanted to take another step.

Mrs. Tian was very worried.She sighed and said: "It takes so much money to cross the river, but where do people who escaped the famine get so much money? I'm afraid that people over there don't want us who escaped the famine to pass, so we deliberately set up a checking point.

In addition, it is also possible that the government colluded with those bandits to surround us here and arrest us.Either way, it's not a good thing.We must prepare for the worst as soon as possible! "

Shen Yunxi was a little stunned after hearing what Mrs. Tian said.She and Mrs. Tian's worries are the same.

People get old and mature, it's true.

Old lady Tian is illiterate, but she is older, experienced, smart and thoughtful, so now she can see the deeper side of things.

After hearing what his mother said, Village Chief Tian's face changed drastically. "If you can't get back across the river, you'll meet those robbers. Either way, they're all dead."

When others hear this, they feel even more sad.

Mrs. Tian saw that even her son, who had always been strong, was starting to worry, and no one else could do anything about it.Suddenly, she saw that Shen Yunxi's face was very serious, but she didn't panic.

Thinking of Shen Yunxi's recent actions, Mrs. Tian thought for a while, and asked Shen Yunxi: "Youqing, you know a lot, do you have any good ideas?"

When Shen Yunxi saw Mrs. Tian asking her, she was a little stunned.Now is not the time to hide. "Grandma, our hometown is still suffering from severe drought. It is estimated that next year there will be a plague of locusts. Even if we can escape the bandits and return to our hometown, there is nothing we can do.

It is clear that the South will not let us pass now.After all, it can buy a boat for a buck or two.Those are the rich, not the poor fleeing the famine.

Right now we only have two methods.One is to cross the river and continue to escape the famine in the south as before.But even if we go to the south this time, the officials and people in the south are not willing to help us.

Another way is to cross the river and find a place with lush trees and lush aquatic plants on the north bank of the river to settle down.

I've been paying close attention to what's going on around me these days.The climate is close to the south, with lush trees and numerous rivers.Let's clear up wasteland and build a house.In summer, hunting in the woods and fishing in the Qingmei River can always fill your stomach. "

Village Chief Tian was stunned, and retorted dryly: "We are not afraid of suffering, but we are afraid that those bandits will come after us and attack us."

Shen Yunxi explained: "Then we need to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We need to dig traps outside. The young people in the village practice archery and hunting. By the way, I saw poison near here. If it gets on If the arrow hits the skin, we will die. If the robbers come here, we will fight them."

Shen Yunxi thought about it, crossed the river, and didn't know what to do.He might as well find a place to settle down.

At this time, the village chief Zhang of Houlihua Village and the village chief Mengzhuang Meng came and sighed: "Brother Tian, ​​we can't make it through. I just heard that the government will issue guidelines after I send money for a boat. Stamped before.

Some people have no money and swim across the river.Unfortunately, some people were directly shot by the officials and washed away by the ferocious Ome River.Even if some people are lucky enough to cross the river, they will be arrested and sent to work in the mines, because there is no chapter on crossing the river in the road guide.A mine is not a good place.Once in, there is no way out again. "

Village head Zhang was arrogant all the way.After all, there are 500 men, women, and children in Houlihua Village, and 200 young people.But since the robbers robbed the village last night, the village has lost more than half of its people, and there are less than 200 people in the village.

Now that I can't cross the river, I want to come over and discuss with Chief Tian how to deal with it.

On the way, they met Village Chief Meng.They greeted each other, sighed, and found Mr. Tian.
