After leaving Wu County and entering Cheng County, these people can no longer be called refugees.

They are all refugees.

Even so, they still carefully kept the household registration documents in their hands. Fleeing from famine is fine, but the household registration documents cannot be lost. If they are lost, the fate waiting for them will only be more miserable.

After another day, the refugees had almost eaten up all the food in their hands, and the few who still had some food did not dare to open their mouths to eat.

They are all carefully hidden, for fear of being discovered.

Fortunately, they collected a lot of water before, otherwise the current life would only be more sad.

"Master, do you think that traveling merchant won't show up?" Yu Chunhua turned over her grain bag sadly. There was not much grain left in it, but a lot of straw sandals were woven, but the traveling merchant didn't show up. It's useless for her to weave so many straw sandals.

"You ask me, how do I know?"

Yu Dahai let out a low growl in annoyance, and looked at Shuanzi not far from the next door.

That day when the two little dolls were exchanging food, their family also took some old clothes to exchange, but not as much as Shuanzi's family. He took all the clothes he could wear himself and got several. I'm afraid there will be twenty catties of grain instead.

Their family is small, and twenty catties of grain is enough to last for a long time.

Now in the entire team, apart from their family, I am afraid that no family has so much food. Haven't you seen those who have run out of food staring at him like wolves?

Yu Dahai was very worried. He wanted to help, but he had a big family to support, so there was no way he could help.

The atmosphere in the refugee team was a little tense and weird, and it looked a bit tense.

Shuanzi naturally also felt those malicious eyes, and he secretly hated, but there was nothing he could do. The two elders in the family also lived in fear every day, for fear that they would never wake up after falling asleep one night.

The family of three has lived in fear these two days. They want to leave the team, but they are even more afraid of being robbed.

He couldn't help looking at Yu Dahai. Among these people, Yu Dahai was the only one he could trust.

And Yu Dahai couldn't help him either.

The dry soil on both sides of the road was lifted up, the grass roots inside were turned upside down, and they had already left Wu County. Since the officials left yesterday, they have not come back. I was so in a hurry yesterday.

Everyone looked for a sheltered place to rest on the spot, so they dispersed for a while.

Finally, a group of refugees headed by Lai Ergou gathered. They were all young and strong, about five or six, and walked towards Shuanzi's house irresistibly.

Shuanzi tensed up all over, these beasts wanted to grab their food again.

Seeing that they were about to approach, suddenly, they seemed to see something terrifying, looked behind Shuanzi in horror, and then ran away without saying a word.

Shuan Zi was at a loss, and was taken aback by their expressions. Could there be a ghost behind him?

For a moment, he also felt a little apprehensive, swallowed nervously and turned around, facing a drawn arrow, the icy cold touch penetrated into his internal organs along the skin of his abdomen, a wave of The seemingly absent chill made him dare not move.

"you you……"

He swallowed desperately, looking down at the arrow in his stomach.

"Ah, I'm sorry to scare you." Bai Xia withdrew her bow and arrow and smiled embarrassedly at him.

Shuanzi shook his head subconsciously, recognizing that she was the benefactor who saved their family a few days ago.

"Thank you benefactor for saving me again"

Shuan Zi knelt on the ground with a bump, and kowtowed to Bai Xia.

Bai Xia was taken aback by his actions, and subconsciously avoided, "Hey, uncle, what are you doing?"

Shuanzi buried his head on the ground, kowtowed again, and said, "Last time, Lai Ergou and the others robbed me of my food, it was the benefactor who saved me and my parents, this time they are going to rob us of our food again." , it was the benefactor who scared them away with bows and arrows"

"The benefactor's great kindness and virtue, the villain does not know how to repay"

"The villain is willing to sell himself as a slave, to be a cow or a horse to repay his benefactor, and ask the benefactor for permission"

Shuanzi didn't even lift his head, and kowtowed continuously towards Bai Xia.

Shuanzi's father and Shuanzi's mother were blocked by Shuanzi before, and they thought that their food would be lost, but when Bai Xia appeared, they scared Lai Ergou and others away. After realizing it, he kowtowed to Bai Xia along with Shuan Zi.

Bai Xia stood there in embarrassment, three people surrounded her and kowtowed to her in three directions, leaving her with nowhere to hide.

"You...you get up first"

When she came to inquire about the location of Yu Dahai and his wife, she happened to see the scene of Lai Ergou bullying the family. She was very impressed with the first person to exchange things last time, so she planned to help a handful.

Who knew that it would make them want to sell themselves.

This is really... embarrassing.

It's also really... great.

When there is a shortage of people, someone will come to your door. Although the purpose is not so simple, it is much easier to control than those few officials. At least they want someone to protect them, and the deeper dream is to follow them so that they can have enough food , obviously, this young man has a bit of vision.

Shuanzi's family was also afraid of offending their benefactor, so they didn't dare to stay on the ground and not get up. When they heard Bai Xia asked them to get up, they got up.

Then three pairs of eyes looked at Bai Xia eagerly.

To be honest, being watched condescendingly by three adults who are taller than him, although the eyes are very pitiful, but that kind of strange pressure makes Bai Xia regret letting them get up, it should be better for them to communicate with her on their knees .

Bai Xia thought silently in her heart.

"You really want to sell yourself as slaves?" Bai Xia coughed lightly and looked at Shuan Zi.

Shuanzi nodded quickly, almost kneeling again, but finally stopped under the threat of Bai Xia's eyes.

"It's true, the benefactor is willing to take us in?" Shuanzi's eyes lit up, and he glanced at the bow and arrow in Bai Xia's hand without any trace.

Presuming he didn't see his eyes, Bai Xiaquan raised his hand to beckon not far behind him, and saw a little dark-skinned boy running over with a few pieces of paper in his hand, the top one , and even some powder.

"Come on, take it and sign it"

Bai Xia handed the paper to Shuanzi, who was taken aback for a moment, and asked stupidly, "What is this?"

"Aren't you going to sell your body? This is the contract of selling your body." Bai Xia said it as a matter of course, and then said: "Of course, if you don't want to sign it, let's go, we will leave now."

After speaking, he planned to take back the written contracts, but Shuanzi was so frightened that he hurried over to snatch them.

"We sign, we sign"

He didn't dare to imagine what would happen to his family if they stayed here again. The benefactor's two children are outside, and they can live well without the care of adults. They can also get the bows and arrows in the hands of the officials, which shows that they are powerful. , It’s not easy to have such a thick thigh, if you don’t hold it tightly, you will feel sorry for yourself.
