The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 62 In an ambush
Zhao Orion and his sons quickly processed the game. The woman put the fresh meat into the pot, and the sound of sizzling oil could be heard instantly.

Jing Li looked at Huo Shen who was surrounded by Jing Dafu and Uncle Tiesheng with great disdain. The world was so unfair. As a woman, she had to pay a lot to convince the young and old men in the village.

Huo Shen just hunted a few game animals, which made these men praise him endlessly.

While picking small stalks of garlic, Mrs. Ge persuaded Jing Li: "Ah Li, don't think they are ignorant. That young man is an outsider. We take advantage of others and say a few nice words for free."

"But Ali, you are different. You are the little girl of our village. You worry about us all the time. We all have a clean heart."

Mrs. Ge thought to herself: No matter how powerful Jingli is, she is still a teenage girl. Seeing these gentlemen holding up the young master, she must feel a little uncomfortable. She has to coax the child.

Jing Li smiled and didn't explain anymore. The world was like this and she couldn't change it by herself. There were so many things going on all day long, so how could she have time to be jealous of Huo Shen.

The genius was bright, and the group had packed up their things and began to slowly advance towards Shouyang Mountain.

The Shouyang Mountains are stacked with mountains, shaded by trees, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. Just after entering for a while, everyone felt very cool and comfortable.

After walking for about two hours, there was no movement at all. Everyone gradually relaxed and talked and laughed about this mountain.

Whatever they see now, they like to compare it with the landscape of their hometown. They always feel that nothing is as good as that place in their hometown. It's just that King Xiaoyao is not a good person, which makes us have to leave our hometown and run for our lives.

Haitang and Jingli sighed: "If it weren't for these troubled times, it would be great to live in seclusion here."

Jingli quite agreed: "It is said that there is Geng Valley in front and below, and there is a water source below that stretches for thousands of miles. Such a place with mountains and water is really good!"

It's a pity that the Tantai family's world has become a hornet's nest, and King Chenliu is not a toy, making it impossible for people to live peacefully.

Huo Shen's eyes flickered inexplicably as he listened to Jing Li's complaints. His face looked a little better today, but he still looked tired. Jing Li thought to himself that it was probably because he stayed up late hunting and didn't get enough rest last night.

Haitang secretly looked at Huo Shen, who was not angry, and cautiously said to Jingli, "Actually, that Prince Changling is pretty good."

"Who?" Jing Li asked with a question mark on her face. Has she ever heard of King Changling?

Haitang was a little embarrassed: "He is the youngest brother today, His Royal Highness Prince Changling."

Jing Li suddenly said: "Oh! What does it seem to be called Tantai Lin?"

Haitang swallowed and nodded, and Jingli continued: "Isn't it true that you are crazy?"

Haitang was stunned, while Jingli smiled and said: "The Tantai family really should make a list of crazy gods. If so, I guess the legendary King Changling must be at the top."

Haitang was even more puzzled, the list of gods?Even the people in the royal family don’t practice immortality!

Huo Shen, who was dozing on the side, raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Jing Li, who was chatting with Haitang. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Crazy God List?"Top of the list?very good!

Haitang was about to ask Jingli what the Gods List was?Jing Li suddenly raised his hand to signal the team to stop, and Huo Shen at the side also opened his eyes.

Jingli's eyes swept over the dense grass and trees on the hillside. A breeze blew gently on her face, blowing her bangs and hair. This direction was somewhat inconsistent with the direction of the grass.

"Attention everyone! Level [-] alert!"

Dalang and Wang Dalong immediately looked around vigilantly, and Uncle Tiesheng and Jing Dafu also quickly drew out their swords.

Shen Huwei and others then showed their knives, and the members of the last-ditch team also took out their kitchen knives.Miss Wang crushed the little wild flower in her hand and hugged Mrs. Wang's arm tightly: "Mom, what's going on? Are there any officers and soldiers chasing you?"

Jingli took a crossbow and paid attention to the surrounding movements, and suddenly shot it behind a big tree. Then she heard a scream and a person rolled out from inside.

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, and the relaxed atmosphere condensed instantly. No wonder the captain had been worried, there was indeed an ambush.

Following the man's screams, many people stood up one after another in the grass, on the big trees, and behind the boulders. There were men, old people, and young people. There were more than 100 people, each wearing a small white flower on his chest. .

It's just that most of the white flowers can no longer be seen clearly, and some of them are simply small black flowers. The white flowers on the leader's body are still slightly shaped, and it can barely be seen that they look like a lotus.

lotus?Jing Li was slightly startled, but Shen Huwei had already exclaimed: "White Lotus Army?"

Everyone's hearts tightened when they heard this. They had heard of the White Lotus Army. Could it be that they escaped because of the White Lotus Army's attack?

But didn’t the White Lotus Army start the uprising from Xia Mi and have been operating in Qingzhou and Jizhou?Why did you get to this place?

The leader of the men raised his sword and said with a smile: "This brother has good eyesight. He can tell that we are the White Lotus Army at a glance. I'm so ashamed! Many days of fighting have defiled the Holy White Lotus. I didn't expect anyone to recognize us."

Jing Li pressed the crossbow: "May I ask what your name is, eldest brother?"

The leading man narrowed his eyes and looked at Jing Li: "That's Zhang Donkey!"

"Pfft!" At such a tense moment, Miss Wang in the middle couldn't help but burst out laughing. A guy named Donkey actually bit the Chinese character Wen Jue. Who was he showing this to?She couldn't help it, so she laughed.

The group of men all looked over, and Mrs. Wang nervously pinched the tender flesh of her daughter's arm with her hands, squeezing Miss Wang's tears out.

"Do you think a certain name is funny?" Zhang Ludan looked at Miss Wang with an extremely calm expression.

Miss Wang didn't dare to look up anymore, cold sweat slowly seeped out and wet the clothes on her back.

Jing Li clasped her fists: "Brother Zhang, don't blame me. The little girl was just impressed by Brother Zhang's bold and heroic appearance, and she got carried away for a moment."

Zhang Ludan withdrew his gaze: "Really?"

Jing Li smiled apologetically: "Brother Zhang, look at us, we are all poor people who have escaped from the countryside. Can you make it easier? Let us pass."

Zhang Ludan had a sneer on his face: "A poor countryman? Killing officers and soldiers, robbing people and horses, all young and strong armed with swords and guns, and accompanied by several guards. Have you ever seen such a poor countryman?"

Jing Dafu secretly cursed in his heart: "You haven't seen it before, haven't you seen it now? You'd better let us pass honestly, otherwise I won't give you a gourd in the head!"

Uncle Tiesheng and others clenched the knives in their hands. They could not interrupt at will when the captain was handling matters, so as not to accidentally say the wrong thing.

However, Jing Li's mind was spinning like lightning. These people knew about killing officers and soldiers and seizing horses, but they didn't know about Wuzuishan. It seemed that the refugees who had passed by had leaked the secret.

They have been targeted by this group of people for a long time. When Shen Weiwei and the others came to investigate yesterday, they had already hidden themselves and there were no signs.

Jing Li stopped smiling: "Officers and soldiers are dishonest. I think I understand this deeply. They are all hard-working people. Can you spare some time for me? We, the whole family, will definitely be grateful."
