On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Chapter 43 Falling into the den of thieves
  Upon hearing this, everyone was frightened.

It's not like having a new home, but like entering a den of thieves.

Ye Lixuan was extremely scared, but he still stood in front of his sister, protecting Ye Xiangxiang with his little hands, "Sister, don't be afraid."

Ye Xiangxiang was very moved and stretched out his hand to pull him, "It's okay, dad is still in front."

She is now also curious about what kind of place this is.

It was said that the magistrate did not seem to be kind-hearted, but the work went very smoothly, and he was puzzled along the way.

When she got here, she finally understood and was waiting here.

General An's letter asked him to arrange a place to go, but he didn't say where he would arrange it.

I'm afraid that the county magistrate realized that they had no important relationship with General An, so he didn't take it seriously.

Ye Hongchang looked at those people and said in a kind tone, "I'm here for the first time, so please take care of me. From now on, if we live in the same village, we have to help each other if anything happens."

"You alone are worthy of my help?" A black-faced man immediately sneered, "I'm afraid you can't bear it."

They rode around everyone, making some women in the village tremble with fear.

Ye Cuicui lowered her head, recalling bad memories again. What on earth do these people want to do?
  Liu Zhuang and his gang tried to snatch her away that day, and she had nightmares for a long time after that.

After finally getting better, I met these people again.

Their eyes were like snakes, not hiding their deepest desires.

Ye Xiangxiang patted her hand gently to ask her to relax.

The people on the horse were about to tease Ye Hongchang and others when the man standing not far away spoke. It was the village chief whom the Yamen officer just mentioned.

"Okay, this is the yamen's arrangement. What are you doing here? Are you stopping people from settling here?"

The man said, walking towards this side.

Ye Xiangxiang saw his face clearly and was startled.

On the dark face, from the right eyebrow to the left temple, there is a shocking scar that runs through the entire face, but it just avoids the eyes.

As soon as he spoke, several people immediately moved away, but they were very dissatisfied.

"Boss, if these people want to settle here, they have to see if they have the ability. Are you not allowed to test it out?"

The man looked at Ye Hongchang, smiled softly, and stepped forward and said, "People in the village have never studied and speak rudely. Please don't take it seriously. What do you call this brother?"

Regardless of what the other party was thinking, as there was no conflict at the moment, Ye Hongchang treated him politely, clasped his fists and said, "I am Ye Hongchang, the head of Tongxin Village. These people are all from the village."

The man glanced behind him, nodded and said, "Okay, now that you are here, you will be from Xiema Village. My name is Kong Shun, and I am the head of Xiema Village. If these people give you trouble, just come to me." "

Ye Hongchang looked at the men on horseback. They were obviously dissatisfied. He only said, "We just arrived today. The government officials asked us to find a place to live by ourselves. Are there any owners in those houses?"

Kong Shun said, "No one lives there. There are not many people in Xiema Village, but there are quite a few houses. You can just choose where to live. It is best to live in the same place and take care of each other. When you get to know each other, you can find another place." empty house."

Ye Hongchang nodded slightly.

Kong Shun waved, "It's broad daylight, there's nothing to do, right? Tie up the horse and help Brother Ye and the others later."

"Boss, I don't have that spare time." The man with the fiercest appearance said disdainfully.

Kong Shun was about to curse, but Ye Hongchang hurriedly said, "It's okay, we can do it ourselves. We just need to find out where to live first. Since we have a house, I won't bother you with anything else."

Kong Shun smiled and said, "Since Brother Ye is so polite, I won't force you. You go first."

He led the people away, and the people behind him moved closer. “Hongchang, do we really want to stay here?”

"These people don't look like good people. Aren't we in a den of thieves?"

Ye Hongchang said, "We are not familiar with the place in Dayan. It is not easy to apply for household registration. If you don't have household registration, you will be kicked out at any time. Although this place is a bit strange, there are so many of us. Don't worry about it now. We can make long-term plans after settling in." "

If you think about it carefully, this is also true.

If we leave here, where can we go?
  It's actually not bad here, but the locals are a bit fierce. There are more than fifty of them, so they won't necessarily lose in a fight.

After the discussion was completed, Ye Hongchang asked everyone to move everything to the vacant house over there.

After going there, they saw that it was much better than they imagined. There were five courtyards in this place, and five families should have lived there before.

He didn't know why these people moved, but since Kong Shun said these houses were for them to live in, they would stay there.

There are more than a dozen rooms in the house in total, and they can be squeezed into each other.

According to Kong Shun's wish, they can find another house later, and they will be able to live in it by then.

"This is it. Let's do it together and clean it up briefly. We'll stay here tonight."

Anyway, I finally have a place to live.

Everyone temporarily forgot about the strangeness of this village, rolled up their sleeves and started working.

Ye Xiangxiang helped pack things, and a man on horseback passed by the door a while later, looking inside.

She was very conflicted. She felt that this place was not good, and she was afraid that she would have nowhere to go if she left.

Ye Hongchang arranged a room for Meng Chang and Meng Tianlang. They had very little luggage, so Ye Xiangxiang went to help clean it.

"Mr. Meng, please stay here first and be careful at night. I always feel that those people have bad intentions."

Meng Tianlang stood by the window and looked outside. Another person passed by outside the yard.

"They are horse thieves." Meng Tianlang said softly.

Ye Xiangxiang was stunned and ran to the window to watch with him. After a while, he raised his head and asked, "What is a horse thief?"

Meng Tianlang was a little helpless and looked down at her, "They are thieves on horses. They usually look like farmers. When they hear that merchants are passing by, they will form a team of horses to rob. Many of them have injuries on their legs and hands. , these are the marks left by a fight on a horse.”

Ye Xiangxiang frowned, "Then we really fell into a den of thieves."

"It seems so." Meng Tianlang nodded, "But it seems that you have no other place to go except here."

Ye Xiangxiang sighed helplessly, thinking that it would be better to get to Dayan during the escape.

When I arrived in Dayan, I thought it would be nice to have a place to stay.

Now that I have a place to stay, I find myself falling into a den of thieves.

Life is really not easy.

She glanced out the window and gritted her teeth, "Horse thieves are just horse thieves. Those refugees we meet on the road are similar to bandits. Now that they are just fighting in a different place, they may not be invincible."

Meng Tianlang said, "Then you have to fight hard. These people have seen blood on their hands. They will really kill people if they are provoked."

Ye Xiangxiang felt a chill on his neck. When will these miserable days be over?
  　Life is not easy, Xiangxiang sighed.

　　I am too tired to revise the article today, so I will update another chapter.
