"What, what should I do?"
Except for the bereaved who are still in grief, others have begun to fear for their own lives.
Those people who don't know the origin robbed the three households of the village's grain storage, does that also mean that they know the news that most of the people in the village have huge grain storage, and when the grain is exhausted, will they come to loot again? Will the unfortunate people be them
Faced with an unknown and powerful opponent, no one can not be afraid.
Now everyone is pinning their hopes on Li Dong, the village chief. At first, the village chief reminded them not to be carried away by the wild game on the mountain, but they didn't listen. If they had listened to the village chief's advice, they would honestly organize a patrol team to stay In the village, will there be no tragedy like today.
Now all they can think of is the village head Li Dong, hoping that he can come up with a good way to help the whole village get through this difficult time.
"In addition to sending people to guard the entrance of the village every night, what else can I think of."
Li Dong frowned and said angrily.
Now that those people have tasted the sweetness, can they give up the big fat in Hou'an Village? I am afraid that the news that Hou'an Village has a lot of food reserves spreads, and the younger generation will only appear like crucian carp crossing the river.
The more I thought about Li Dong's head, the more painful it became, and the craving for smoking also increased.
"We can only wait for the police to come tomorrow night and see if the police can find those gangsters."
Li Dong sighed, now that the world is so chaotic, to be honest, he has no hope for the police.
"Wait a minute, Jiang Liu, you said just now that the traps outside the village have not been triggered?"
Suddenly, Li Dong thought of a doubt, "It doesn't make sense, those traps are so well done, if it is a stranger outside, how can they avoid those traps so well?"
You must know that the roadblocks at the entrance of the village, Li Dong, are really thinking.
He asked people to dig several large pits, which were paved with fine grass and dead leaves, and looked no different from ordinary roads.
Some of these big pits are in the center of the road, some are on both sides of the road, and there is no trace at all. Except for the people from this village, it is difficult for anyone to avoid these traps and walk into the village. Even the people from this village are occasionally sloppy. Carelessly fell into the trap, shouting loudly and waiting for the people living in the village to hear the call to rescue.
Thinking of this, Li Dong became suspicious, and his eyes flashed sharply over the people present.
"Don't be some people who eat inside and outside the village."
The more Li Dong thought about it, the more suspicious it became. Why did those people choose the right time, and they appeared when the young and middle-aged people in the village went up the mountain to pick up game, and why they were able to avoid the traps at the entrance of the village and enter the village? Maybe it was only among them that there were traitors and suspicious explanations. .
"Look at what I'm doing, I really didn't hear any noise outside. My boys and children are all in the village. What's the benefit of being in contact with outsiders."
Lichun's daughter-in-law looked at everyone and focused on her, she was really wronged.
"I really didn't hear the sound, really, really didn't hear any sound."
What about Feixue in June, what Dou E was talking about when she was alive was her situation.
"Your parents and brothers are still outside."
Some people also refuted the little daughter-in-law. Everyone thought to themselves, how can a normal person not hear the barking of wild dogs, only she can explain it.
"My parents are also from the countryside. There is enough food at home. Am I guilty?"
The young daughter-in-law cursed and swears, seeing her angry expression and eloquent words, plus there is no clear suspicion, everyone doesn't have to look at her with strange eyes.
"I don't think the people in our village are suspicious. After all, our roots are in Hou'an Village. What good will it do for us to provoke those gangsters? Outsiders can't tell."
A voice resounded in the crowd.
These words were aimed at those who had come to the village to defect to their relatives in the past two months.
Since the three suns appeared in the sky, many people who defected to relatives have come to the village one after another. Most of these people live in the city. Some of them are brothers and sisters who have already settled in the city, and some are the parents of the married daughter-in-law. Brother, in the past two months, there have been dozens of strangers in the village. During the disaster year, food was in short supply. Because of these relatives who came to borrow, there were a lot of trivial disputes and quarrels in the village.
Of course, in addition to these people being suspected, the people who came before the disaster were also suspected.
For example, Jiang Liu, the Chi family sisters, and the Tang Ao family.
Needless to say, the Tang Ao family was originally an outsider and was the object of the village's embankment. Although Jiang Liu and the Chi family sisters were also their own, they moved out early after all, and their relationship with Hou'an Village was not that close.
Especially Jiang Liu, although he has the coarse salt from Mrs. Jiang, after all, he is a person who has no food reserves. Seeing his boldness in buying pork from Yang Sanhan, is he not worried that he will run out of coarse salt and have no food in the future? change
Or is it that he has already made preparations to cooperate with the people outside and rob the people of the village for food
For a time, everyone felt that the other party was a traitor, and the originally harmonious neighborhood relationship was completely destroyed.
Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, Li Dong felt annoyed immediately, because he was confused, how could he provoke internal disputes when foreign enemies were at the head? , is not conducive to resisting foreign enemies.
There is no way for Jiang Liu and other suspects to defend themselves. At this time, the more they say, the more wrong they are. Anyway, time will prove everything.
"The patrol team cannot be dispersed. From today, men over 15 years old, men under 55 years old, women over 18 years old, and women under 50 years old must join the patrol team."
Li Dong quickly diverted everyone's attention: "Don't say that children are still young, women have no strength in men, those gangsters are eyeing us, and if they really come in, they won't care if you are a child or a woman. , I do not guard my own home, only the end of being killed."
The three households at the entrance of the village are warnings. Two-year-old children and elderly people in their 80s were killed without blinking their eyes. It can be seen that those people are inhumane, otherwise they can be tied up and only fed with food. snatched.
So put your hope on those people, not on yourself.
Because of Li Dong's remarks and the nine bloody corpses in front of him, those who felt bad for the child stopped talking.
"And there's Jiang Bin and the others."
Li Dong pointed to Jiang Bin and others who lost their relatives and food.
A total of seven people survived in the three families. Except for one woman, all these people were men. These seven people were all young and strong. They had lost close relatives and had no food. Li Dong was worried that they would cause trouble.
"Xu Hongjun, Ma Manchun..."
Li Dong called out the names of twelve people one after another. These people were supposed to be patrolling the entrance of the village, but their negligence of duty indirectly led to the tragedy.
"Each of your households provides 50 catties of grain, at least to ensure that Jiang Bin and the others will survive this period of time."
Li Dong thought about it, each of these people gave out 50 catties of grain, which is nearly 600 catties of rations. Although it is definitely not as good as one-tenth of the previous grain storage of these three families, at least it is enough to eat frugally. The seven of them ate for two or three months.
As for the future, take a step by step, maybe the police can catch those gangsters and return their food, although this may be very slim.
The people who were named by Li Dong were a little reluctant. How long can they eat fifty catties of grain? The game they picked up in the mountains may not add up to ten catties.
Only when their eyes turned to Jiang Bin and others, they flinched again when they saw their frantic and angry expressions.
It is said that people who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, but now Jiang Bin and others have lost their bonds, aren't they just barefooted
I am afraid that these people have already hated them for a long time. If they really run out of food because of lack of food, will they attack them? These seven are all strong laborers, unlike them, there are old and young in the family.
With such scruples, the twelve households could only admit that they were unlucky and agreed to the request of the village head Li Dong.

"Sister, I'm a little scared."
Chi Ruoyu's feet were shaking when she saw the nine corpses, and the corpses reminded her of some very bad memories.
In her last life, she used the furniture against the door, and when she heard the sound of smashing the door and picking the lock from the door, she was afraid that she would end up like this. In those ten days, she heard too many desperate cries, although It's been a long time, but it will never be forgotten.
Fortunately, she starved to death at that time. Although she died a bit useless, she was at least luckier than being killed by others.
But this life is different. Chi Ruoyu doesn't want to die so uselessly. She has a sister, an uncle, a cousin, and a brother Jiang who has finally met again. She also wants to be able to protect them when they are protected. .
"Sister, you teach me to beat people."
Chi Ruoyu took a deep breath and said to her sister, she didn't want to be a child anymore, she wanted to live in this troubled world, at least they all had to live well before they ran out of food in the space.
"it is good."
Chi Ruojin glanced at her sister and nodded.

The next day, the Chi family welcomed a guest, and Tang Ao appeared at the door of the Chi family sisters with two apples.
