Chapter 258 Refugees Stealing Things
Chapter 258 Refugees Stealing Things
Liu, who was originally very worried, couldn't help laughing after hearing what Jiang Yuwei said.
Jiang Yuwei lifted the curtain and saw that there was nothing unusual around her, so she jumped off the cart, walked to where the men were sleeping on the floor, and quietly woke them up:
"Wake up, just lie down, don't get up, listen to me first."
Jiang Yuwei saw that everyone had woken up and opened their eyes to look at her, so she squatted on the ground and whispered:
"We've been targeted by a group of refugees. They're not good people. They've got knives in their hands. Get your weapons ready. Don't sleep too soundly. Listen for footsteps on the ground. We don't know when they're going to attack. But these people are desperate, so you must be careful."
After saying that, Jiang Yuwei saw that they were holding their weapons in their hands, so she felt at ease and went to the open space to light a few fires with dry firewood to make the surroundings brighter. This would prevent the group of people from acting rashly, and even if a fight really broke out, they would be able to see who was coming clearly.
After Jiang Yuwei finished these things, she returned to the ox cart. It was definitely not possible to stay awake for the whole night, so she had to take a nap first.
Liu volunteered to help keep watch, and Jiang Yuwei thought that was a good idea, so she let her go.
In the second half of the night, when everyone was getting a little sleepy, Liu keenly heard footsteps and low conversations.
So he hurriedly woke up Jiang Yuwei and Ning Daya.
Jiang Yuwei opened the curtain a little and looked outside, only to see a man holding a big knife and about to chop at Uncle Youcai who was lying on the ground.
The other men surrounded Ning Huaizhi and the others.
Jiang Yuwei saw this and shouted:
"The bandits are coming! The bandits are coming!"
While shouting, his hands were not idle. He drew the bow and shot at the man who was about to chop Uncle Youcai.
At this time, Ning Wan also woke up, struggled to get up, picked up her small bow and arrow and shot outside.
Fortunately, there was the fire that Jiang Yuwei had lit earlier to provide some light, otherwise it would have been difficult to see clearly in such a dark and windy night, and I wouldn’t have been able to aim when shooting arrows.
At this time, Ning Qiu and Aunt Zhou also stood up after hearing Jiang Yuwei's shouting. Jiang Yuwei told Ning Qiu to stay on the ox cart to protect Aunt Zhou and guard the food on the cart without getting off.
So Ning Qiu had already taken out his whip and was ready at all times.
Aunt Zhou also took out the lime powder from her bosom. She looked out through the gap in the curtain and was so frightened that she trembled all over and broke out in a cold sweat.
Although Wang Ma, who was standing behind, was an old lady in the palace, it was her first time to experience such a scene, so she clenched her fists nervously.
Xu Qianqian was so frightened that she threw herself into Ning Chunlin's arms, trembling as she spoke:
"Brother Chunlin, I'm scared. You have to protect me later."
At this time, Ning Chunlin, who was holding Xu Qianqian, was also trembling all over. Although he had been beaten many times before for owing money, he was still afraid when he saw the big knives in the hands of this group of people. After all, he had only been beaten before and did not have to worry about losing his life.
Ning Chunlin even thought that if that group of people rushed onto the carriage, he would offer Xu Qianqian to them so that they would not kill him. It would even be a good idea to use Xu Qianqian as his shield.
As Ning Chunlin was thinking about it, he saw a sword piercing through the curtain of the carriage and stabbing towards his face.
Ning Chunlin was so frightened that he closed his eyes and shouted:
"No, don't kill me, I'll give you a woman, a beautiful woman!"
As soon as Ning Chunlin finished speaking, Xu Qianqian smelled a strong smell of urine in the carriage. She was so irritated that she covered her nose and secretly glanced at Ning Chunlin who was scared to pee.
The man outside the carriage lifted the curtain and looked inside. Seeing that there were only two people sitting in the carriage, he put a knife to Ning Chunlin's neck and said coldly:
"I don't want women, I want food!"
After hearing this, Ning Chunlin pointed to the area below his seat and said:
"Here, here are some. Big brother, put down the knife. I will give you everything. I will never resist. Just spare my life."
After hearing this, the man pointed his knife to the side, motioning Ning Chunlin to sit further away.
Then he went over and lifted up the seat cover with his hands. Suddenly, a strong smell of urine hit the man in the face, choking him and causing him to cough violently several times.
The man glared at Ning Chunlin with disdain, then moved out all the things inside and got off the carriage.
There was already a melee outside. The man put down the things in his hands and prepared to search Aunt Zhou's ox cart. However, as soon as he lifted the curtain, Ning Qiu whipped his hand.
He was in so much pain that he lost his grip on the knife and it fell to the ground. Ning Qiu saw this and shouted:
"Mom, sprinkle it on his face!"
Ning Qiu whipped the man again. Aunt Zhou saw this and threw the lime powder in her hand at the man's face.
The man was blinded by the lime powder and couldn't open his eyes. Ning Qiu took the opportunity to slap the man's eyes.
The man covered his eyes in pain and knelt on the ground crying:
"My eyes, my eyes are blind, ahhh, it hurts so much!"
Ning Qiu then whipped the man a few more times, each time hitting the man's vital parts. The pain was unbearable for the man, and he stumbled away.
Jiang Yuwei and Ning Wan were shooting at the refugees non-stop. All of their arrows were poisoned, so all the refugees who were shot fell to the ground and could not get up.
Aunt Wang was worried about the situation outside and wanted to lift the curtain to look outside, but two men jumped directly into the carriage.
He shouted to the women in the car:
"Hand over all your food!"
At this time, Sun was so frightened that she dared not speak. She held Ning Xin tightly in her arms, fearing that this villain would hurt her daughter.
Chen Guixiang looked at the man in a flattering manner and stammered:
"No, no, no, don't kill me. Please spare me, an old woman. Everything you want is here."
Then Chen Guixiang pointed to the box behind Wang Ma.
Seeing that Chen Guixiang gave out the things so quickly, Wang Ma could only glare at her, then stepped aside and let the man move them himself.
Just as the man put the knife back to his waist and bent down to move the box, Sun, who was watching with no strength at all, suddenly drew out his knife and slashed at the man's neck.
Sun would not kill people, but she had killed chickens before, and she knew that when killing a chicken, one had to cut the neck first to let the chicken bleed.
The man turned around and stared at Sun, covering his neck with one hand in disbelief, and tried to grab the knife from Sun's hand with the other hand.
Seeing this, Sun suddenly stabbed him in the chest with the knife. Wang Ma quickly grabbed something nearby and hit the man on the back of the head several times.
It was not until the man fell to the ground that Chen Guixiang was frightened and rushed out of the carriage, shouting:
"Killing, killing!"
When Jiang Yuwei heard Chen Guixiang's screams, she was shocked and thought someone in their carriage had died.
He quickly turned his head to look at her, and at that moment when Jiang Yuwei was distracted, she didn't notice that a big knife was chopping towards her neck.
