The man coughed in embarrassment, and said cheekily, "Mr. Xiang, can you share the porridge you have left with us?"
When the man asked this sentence, almost all the eyes in the tent stared at her expectantly.
Chu Lian frowned, as if she didn't expect them to ask such a question at all. She frowned and thought for two seconds before she finally figured it out.
Under the man's almost staring gaze, she nodded unhappily, "Yes, but I can only share this porridge with you."
How can a few greedy people care so much, as long as there is food at this time, it will be fine.
The three men gloated at the woman with the thick lips, but the woman stared back fiercely.
Sure enough, they watched as Chu Lian divided the crock of porridge into four bowls, three of which were as much, and only one bowl was half filled. Chu Lian pointed the least bowl of mutton porridge to the thick-lipped The woman stepped aside angrily.
The tall man patted the woman on the shoulder, took what seemed to be the most bowl and walked away.
However, the taste of this mutton porridge is really too fragrant. For those of them who haven't even eaten plain porridge for a long time, it is simply irresistible delicacy.
Whether it's a man or a woman, when they got the bowl of porridge, they took a deep breath and started to eat bitterly.
When they were engrossed in eating, they didn't pay attention to Chu Lian's bowl of porridge, she hadn't even touched a mouthful, she always ate the mutton skewers on the porridge.
A bowl of porridge would not satisfy hunger at all, three men and one woman wanted to pick up the empty earthen jar and lick it. In their eyes, Chu Lian had eaten all the porridge in the earthen jar, so there might be problems.
Chu Lian chewed and swallowed the food in the bowl slowly, and after about a quarter of an hour, she secretly raised her eyes to look at the people around her.
They leaned against the corner of the tent, where they were still a little awake.
The excitement suddenly stirred Chu Lian's heart, it was done, she was done after all!
First, he pretended to be savage and ignorant to lower the defenses of several people, and then lured them into the bait with food. Chu Lian gently put down the bowl and stroked his chest.
Not daring to waste any time, she took the dagger beside her and hid it, wrapped herself in the fox fur, and wrapped the unused ingredients for the porridge just now on her body, ready to take it away.
As soon as he walked to the curtain, he heard a hoarse and weak voice behind him. Chu Lian froze all over. When he turned around, he saw a woman with thick lips staring at her fiercely, and said fiercely: " You... you actually took medicine!"
Chu Lian didn't expect that the woman was not drugged, probably because she ate less porridge before.
But although she was not unconscious yet, her whole body was sore and limp, and she didn't even have the strength to stand up.
Chu Lian understood the efficacy of this medicine, and she couldn't leave a sober woman alone in the camp. She gritted her teeth, turned around, picked up the long sword of the woman next to her, gathered the hilt of the sword and struck the woman's back of the head forcefully.
With a slight muffled sound, the woman finally passed out.
When the woman fainted, Chu Lian sat slumped on the ground. She dropped the long sword in her hand in a panic, and her forehead was covered with sweat.
Chu Lian hurriedly calmed herself down, restraining the weakness of her legs, and quickly got out of the tent with the package on her back.
In fact, if it is really possible, those four people should take advantage of their coma to avoid future troubles, but Chu Lian dare not kill people. The world she originally lived in has formed her worldview, and she has never been an indifferent person. people.
She can't do murder, it's not the Holy Mother, it's her nature.
The environment in which she had lived since she was a child was destined to prevent her from doing such a thing.
As soon as she got out of the tent, Chu Lian bumped into a person. This person was the barbarian woman she saw outside the tent when she came here in the middle of the night last night. Chu Lian tried to escape in a panic, but the barbarian woman grabbed her wrist.
Chu Lian was startled, and stared at the barbarian woman with wide eyes. She pursed her lips, and several thoughts flashed through her mind quickly, but before the barbarian woman said anything, she still forced herself to calm down. Make a little noise.
If she speaks out at this time and let other people here know, then the matter of her poisoning those four people will be completely exposed, and she will be completely out of control of the subsequent development of the matter.
Chu Lian stared suspiciously at the barbarian woman in front of her, and the barbarian woman finally spoke a substandard Chinese with difficulty.
"I'm going Larry. (I'll take you)"
Chu Lian thought that she would yell, and that she would go into the tent to inform, but she never thought that this barbarian woman would say such a sentence.
And it was still in the official language of the Great Wu Dynasty. Although it was not standard at all, Chu Lian understood it at once.
Although Chu Lian was astonished, she did not immediately trust this barbarian woman who appeared out of nowhere. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. She is not really as immature and easy to deceive as she looks on the outside.
The barbarian woman looked at Chu Lian and frowned at her. There was not much trust in her clear eyes. She was a little anxious. This time she said another sentence, which only had three words.
"He Changdi!"
Chu Lian was stunned now, she quickly asked: "Ma'am, do you know He Changdi?"
The barbarian woman nodded hastily, and she grabbed Chu Lian's hand and ran towards the windward side of the hillside.
There is a groove at the corner, which is paved with a thick layer of hay, and several horses and a dozen animals are crowded in it.
The barbarian woman brought Chu Lian among the horses, and gestured anxiously towards her. Chu Lian watched for a long time, and seemed to understand what she meant.
Chu Lian slowly said word by word: "Auntie, do you want me to wait for you here?"
Fortunately, although the barbarian woman did not understand the official language of the Great Wu Dynasty, she could still distinguish some simple sentences.
The barbarian woman nodded repeatedly, and pushed Chu Lian into the center of the horse, so that the tall horse covered Chu Lian's petite body.
After covering for Chu Lian, the barbarian woman quickly ran towards the tent. Fortunately, because the weather in the northern border was bad at this time and the temperature outside was extremely low, there were very few people walking outside the tent.
When walking in front of the two tents, the barbarian woman thought about it, gritted her teeth, and went into Chu Lian's previous tent. When she saw three men and a woman fainted in the camp, she was startled at first, and then panicked. Boldly tested the auras of the men, and when she was sure that they had just fainted, the barbarian woman sharpened her eyes, took the long sword from one of the men, and wiped all four of them on their necks in one go...
It wasn't until the last sound of the woman with thick lips disappeared that the barbarian woman sat on the ground panting, but she couldn't afford to waste time.
The barbarian woman forced herself to pull herself together and walked to the curtain of the tent, first listened to the movement outside, and after making sure that no one was coming out, she opened the curtain with confidence.
Chu Lian squatted among the horses and waited for almost two quarters of an hour before the barbarian woman helped the two of them stumble towards this direction.
Chu Lian hurried up to meet her.
When they got closer, they discovered that the two men supported by the barbarian woman were two boys.
The oldest of them was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and the youngest was thin and dark, ten years old at most.
The barbarian woman babbled to the older boy beside her, and the older boy nodded, then raised her head and looked at Chu Lian, "Girl, my aunt said we have to leave here immediately, otherwise we will be in trouble if someone finds out." gone."
Although the official speech of this older boy is not very standard, at least there is no problem in communication.
The four of them didn't dare to stay for even a little time.
Because Chu Lian didn't know how to ride a horse at all, in the end, the two teenagers could only ride together, and the barbarian woman took Chu Lian with her.
As soon as the horse galloped, it quickly disappeared into the boundless snowstorm in the northern region in winter. In a few seconds, there were no figures of people in sight.
During the time when the horse was riding, Chu Lian learned part of the situation from the older boy.
The barbarian woman's name is Wu Lihan, the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy's name is Muren, and the young boy's name is Na Risong.
There are three members of their family, a mother and a child, and two teenagers are sick. That Risong's condition is more serious, and he has to drink medicine every day.
Their family is the most common herdsman among the barbarians. Their father passed away early in the morning, and their two children were raised by Wu Lihan.
It's just that the children's health has always been poor, and their lives have been difficult. Even though Ulihan knew that the two children were not suffering from any serious diseases, they couldn't be cured without the correct medicinal materials, and they dragged on for a long time.
They didn't originally live on that sunken natural hillside, but elsewhere.
Suddenly this winter, the blizzard overwhelmed the tent they lived in, and half of the sheep they depended on froze to death. In order to keep their sons alive, Ulihan led them to find that hillside.
She exchanged all the sheep they owned for the chance to stay there. Wu Lihan lived with her two sons for half a month, and then met Chu Lian who had been taken captive.
After roughly listening to this, Chu Lian realized that the two tents on the hillside were like inns, and the owners there rented them out to passers-by. The men in the same team as Chu Lian gave them to them Once the tent owner packs something, it is similar to the room fee.
Fortunately, Wu Lihan is the daughter of the grassland. She has lived in the grassland for decades, and she can clearly tell the direction even in the snowy grassland in winter.
After Chu Lian and the others left for nearly two hours, another small group of people came to this hillside. The owner of the tent came out to greet them with a smile, but was kicked away mercilessly.
Then the man riding on the tall and strong horse looked down at the tent owner condescendingly, and said a few words fiercely. The tent owner scrambled and led the pair towards the tent where Chu Lian lived before.
"My lord, the person you're looking for is here. In the morning, I saw the people inside coming out to get things."
The leader-like figure in the team snorted coldly, jumped off the horse, and walked a few steps to the curtain of the tent. Suddenly, the man smelled a slight fishy smell. The next second, the man's expression changed, and he lifted the curtain. open.
Inside, four crooked corpses were lying in the camp tent, and the blood flowed all over the ground, which had already condensed due to the low temperature. Apart from the four corpses, there was no shadow of Mr. Jinyi Township in the whole tent.
