Chapter 87
Everyone started busy setting up tents and lighting fires to cook, because it was already very late, and everyone had been hungry all day. Although they ate some dry food while waiting outside the city, it was too dry and hard to eat, so I didn't eat much either.

They first lit the fire with the pine cones they picked up earlier, poured all the water in the bamboo tube into the pot, and then freed the bamboo tube to hold the water.

The hillside was not high, and there were still trees, so they were divided into two groups. One group held a torch to pick up some dry branches that fell on the ground, and used it to light the fire at night, and the other group went to fetch water from the creek.

There was a lot of hay in this open space, and after tidying up, they spread it on the ground, and immediately set up a tent.

In this season, it is actually quite cold to sleep in tents at night. Fortunately, they have a lot of quilts, otherwise they really don't know how to survive the night.

When they were on that plain before, they all found an empty house to rest in advance.There are little spirits exploring the way ahead, and they will basically find empty villages before dark, and live in those houses. Even if the roof is a little leaky, as long as it doesn't rain, four walls are still much warmer than tents.

There are many people and strength, and those who were assigned to collect firewood quickly picked up a lot of dead branches.The few who went to fetch water from the stream also came back. The stream is not very far from this open space, only a distance of hundreds of feet.

There is no village nearby, so the stream is very clear.

It was quite late, and Xiao Ling didn't fly out to explore the way, but Jiayin's consciousness did.

Now the spread of Jiayin's spiritual consciousness is wider, and it can be spread five miles away, about six miles away.

She found that there were still some villages in the surrounding area, but they were not on the side of the road, and they could only be reached after a fork in the road.

Jiayin doesn't understand why these villages are not built beside this wide official road?Wouldn't it be possible to set up a shed for people passing by to buy tea and earn those copper coins like before at the gate of the city?

However, some villages are closer to the official road.It's just that there is a piece of wasteland next to the official road, and then there are the fields of those villages, and then there are other people's homes.

Ask if you don't understand, she asked Mrs. Yang: "Grandma, we have been walking for so long, why didn't we see a village beside the road?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Yang smiled and said to her: "There are a lot of merchants coming and going on this official road. If there is a village, the people in the village will be disturbed by pedestrians coming and going.

For the people in the village, being disturbed is second to none, and there may be danger.Because the pedestrians who come and go are not necessarily good people, what if they enter the village and do bad things?
If anything, the village is too close to the official road, and it is more dangerous for those children to come out to play, and it is very likely that they will be taken away by kidnappers.

If the kidnapper drove by in a car, he just took the child into the car and ran away, and there was nowhere to look for him. "

After hearing this, Jiayin nodded if she realized something.It turned out to be like this, it's really not good to be close to the official road.

I can't blame those villages, the nearest ones have to be separated by a piece of wasteland and fields, so that there are people.In this case, if bad people really go in, at least they have to pass through the wasteland and fields, and the villagers can see it at a glance. Early warning can protect the safety of the village. It seems that human beings are very thoughtful.

However, how can there be bad guys who specialize in stealing children?What is the use of stealing?do you want to eat?It seems that you have never heard of cannibalism?

So Jiayin asked again: "Grandma, what are they doing with the children?"

Mrs. Yang said: "Some people don't have children themselves. If they want a child, they can only buy one with silver. In this way, those who steal the child will make money. Buy the child back and use it as a son for themselves. When they grow up, they will work for the family. , Give yourself a pension.

Or sell it to those rich and noble families, and serve as servants to serve those masters. "

Jiayin tilted her head and thought for a while, the servant girl is the maid, right?Just like their maids in Dragon Palace.However, their maids were not bought, they were all defected by the little demon who became a spirit from the seabed.

A nameless little demon, who will be beaten to death at any time.It's different after entering the Dragon Palace, just like human beings have a household registration, they will be protected by the Dragon Palace, and others dare not mess with them easily.
