Chapter 367

Most of the villagers in the small fishing village are surnamed Chen De, so there is an ancestral hall in the village.

But now, outside the ancestral hall are all refugees in ragged clothes, all of them were covered with cold and purple, staring fiercely at the tightly closed gate of the ancestral hall.

Gu Yao's heart twitched, and her mental power penetrated through the gap in the window of the ancestral hall, and she saw the villagers of the small fishing village inside, including old people and women
In short, it seems that the entire small fishing village is in the ancestral hall.

How is this going?

"Miss, why don't you go down and have a look!" Xiao Xu said after seeing Gu Yao staring at the village road of the small fishing village after being silent for a while.

Gu Yao withdrew her mental strength, sighed, and said, "No need, let's go there together!" After a pause, she said, "Anyi, remember to protect Xuan'er."

What if something unexpected happens!

"Yes." An Yi said hiding in the dark.

Xiao Xu was puzzled, and asked: "Miss, this subordinate can also protect the young master." His martial arts are much higher than An Yi's.

"One more person to protect Xuan'er, I feel at ease." Naturally, Gu Yao couldn't tell them what she saw through her mental power just now, "Come on, let's go to Chen's house to see the situation now."

Yi Ranchen held out Gu Yao's hand and walked forward, "Yao'er, did you find something?"

Gu Yao glanced at Yi Ranchen, and then said: "This village is too quiet, even if everyone stays at home and doesn't go out, there will still be some noise."

As they walked, the four of them looked around.

Suddenly, Gu Yao remembered the weirdness of this small fishing village, "Yi Ranchen, Xiao Xu, have you seen that the gates of every house are open."

But people are all in the ancestral hall. What happened here?

Yi Ranchen protected Gu Yao behind him, his expression became more vigilant, "Yao'er, be careful, I will go ahead, Xiao Xu, you will protect behind."

"Okay, Master Chen." Xiao Xu hugged Yi Xuan in one hand and the sword in the other, with a serious look on his brows.

In such a serious and weird scene, Yi Xuan moved uncomfortably in Xiao Xu's arms, and whispered, "Sister." He was a little scared, and wanted to be hugged by his sister.

Gu Yao stopped, stretched out her hand towards Yi Xuan, and said to Xiao Xu, "Xuan'er, let me hug you!"

"Sister." Yi Xuan got into Gu Yao's arms and hugged her neck tightly. Although he was still scared in his heart, he had calmed down a lot.

Gu Yao reached out and pressed Yi Xuan's head on her shoulder, and said, "Xuan'er, hold my sister, and then close your eyes. You can only open them when my sister asks you to open them, you understand?"

"En." Yi Xuan obeyed obediently, closed his eyes, and buried his whole face on Gu Yao's shoulder.

Yi Ranchen sighed, and patted Yi Xuan's head, "Xuan'er, don't be afraid, Brother Chen will protect you."

Yi Xuan moved but didn't speak.

"Let's go." As Gu Yao walked, she kept paying attention to the surrounding situation with mental strength, but in this way, the range she could see was not very large.

Mental strength can only be used for vigilance at best.

"Miss, Master Chen, look here." Suddenly, Xiao Xu pointed to a place and said to Gu Yao and Yi Ranchen.

The two looked at the place Xiao Xu pointed at, their expressions were startled, and they hurried over, because the snow was too thick, and there happened to be a downward slope over there.

So Yi Ranchen and Gu Yao didn't notice the abnormality there when they walked by.

Until Xiao Xu noticed.

When Gu Yao approached, she realized that there was actually a foot under the heavy snow, half of an adult's foot without shoes, and she gasped.

When Xiao Xu dug him out, he was stiff.

"This is a villager from a small fishing village." Because Gu Yao often goes back to the pier to buy seafood, she is quite familiar with the people in the small fishing village, and she recognizes them as soon as they meet each other.

Xiao Xu and Yi Ranchen looked at each other and immediately realized the importance of the matter.

"Miss, why don't we leave!" Xiao Xu said, "Let's come back after we go back and inform Lord Shangguan!" People were killed, and something must have happened in this small fishing village.

What if something happens after entering!

Gu Yao shook her head, she must go in now, otherwise she doesn't know what will happen in the ancestral hall!

But thinking about it now, these things should have something to do with the refugees at the ancestral hall.

"It's all here, let's go and have a look." Gu Yao said: "Except for Xuan'er who has no self-protection ability, is self-protection still a problem for the rest of us?"

Xiao Xu and Yi Ranchen fell silent after listening.

After a while, Yi Ranchen said: "Since that's the case, let's go and have a look, if we miss anything because of this."

My conscience is hard to rest!
Although the words were not finished, Xiao Xu and Gu Yao still knew what he was going to say, so they glanced at each other.

"Let's go!" Gu Yao ordered, and the three continued to walk forward.

With the previous discovery, they paid a lot of attention along the way, and this attention made their hearts sink.

Some were young, some were old, and even children were picked out of the snow. It was extremely painful to see.

"Damn it." Xiao Xu couldn't help cursing, "Who did it, you bastard, even children."

Gu Yao and the others are standing at the door of a family not far from Chen Jiu's house. From the door, they can see the scene inside very clearly.

An old man had a head injury and fell to the ground, the back half of his body had been buried in the snow, and another had a child.

Bruised and purple all over, he was tied to a pillar under the eaves, apparently frozen to death.

Gu Yao hugged Yi Xuan's hand tightly, "You bastard!" Such a young child, about the same age as Xuan'er, had not had time to feel the beauty of this world, but met the most tragic ending.

Yi Ranchen stood behind Gu Yao, and patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, "Yaoer, let's go to Chen's house first!"

"En." Gu Yao nodded, and then the three of them walked forward.

When we arrived at the door of Chen's house, the door was open, but fortunately, there was no one inside, "It seems that no one is at home, Yao'er, what should we do now?"

Gu Yao was silent for a while, and said: "Take the things in first, and then we will go to other places in the village to see."

"Okay, miss." Xiao Xu said, went in and put the things in the kitchen, and then came out, his face was not very good.

"Miss, the kitchen is in a mess, there is no food in it, it should be taken away by someone who came in."

Gu Yao pursed her lips, looked in the direction of the Chen family's ancestral hall, and said, "I remember Brother Chen said that there is an ancestral hall in their village, let's go and have a look at the ancestral hall."

"Okay." Yi Ranchen and Xiao Xu had no objection, after all they didn't know where to go now.

At this moment in the Chen Family Ancestral Hall, Chen Jiu stood in the corner protecting his family, looking at the gate with a gloomy expression.

Mo Lingqiu hugged his son, and looked at Chen Jiu with a distressed face, "Ah Jiu, sit down and rest for a while, I will re-bandage you again, I am worried."

Chen Jiu glanced at his arm, then shook his head towards Mo Lingqiu, "No need." What should be worried now is when those refugees will break in.

Most of them are women and children here, and if refugees do break in, they can't handle it.

"What should we do now!"

"The child's father doesn't know what's going on now?"

"Where did these refugees come from!"

"Aren't the passages at the entrance of the village closed? Where did they come from?"

……

Just last night, after the whole village fell into a deep sleep, some refugees actually came into the village to grab food. Not only that, they even shot and wounded and killed people.

For a moment, the originally quiet village was bustling like daytime, and everyone fled out of the house one after another. I don't know who said it, and everyone ran into the ancestral hall.

This hiding, until now.

And the wound on Chen Jiu's arm was injured when he was protecting his family while fleeing, and was injured by the refugee with a dagger that he didn't know where to get.

"Mother, I'm hungry." Chen Guangran held Mo Lingqiu's lapel with his small hands and whispered.

The tears in Mo Lingqiu's eyes immediately flowed down, "Ah Jiu, what should I do!" It doesn't matter for them adults to starve for a while, but the children are still young, and they simply cannot endure hunger!
Chen Jiu touched his son's cheek, smiled, and said, "Of course, bear with it, okay?"

Chen Guangran looked down at Chen Jiu's injured arm, nodded sensiblely, then snuggled into Mo Lingqiu's arms and stopped talking.

Chen Jiu is very happy that his son is so sensible, but the current situation is very unfavorable to them, they have to find a way to save themselves!

My son is still young, so he shouldn't...

When Gu Yao and the others arrived near the ancestral hall, they saw the refugees guarding outside from a distance. Those refugees were holding a whole chicken and gnawing on it.

It wasn't until this time that everyone realized that they didn't see poultry after passing through so many houses, but now they saw things in the hands of those refugees.

They also did what they wanted to do in the village.

"It seems that they are the murderers." Yi Ranchen said angrily. If he wanted to be those little children, he wished he could go forward and slaughter those animals.

Gu Yao pulled Yi Ranchen back and said, "Calm down, it's absolutely impossible to rely on those few people alone." The most important thing now is to find out the details of the other party.

"Miss, what should we do next?" Xiao Xu asked.

Gu Yao pursed her lips, and moved towards the ancestral hall with mental strength. After checking the surrounding situation, she said, "Xiao Xu, go over there and check the situation."

"If someone knocks you out, if there is no one, we will go over." In fact, Gu Yao knew that there were two refugees eating there.

Xiao Xu nodded, and then walked towards the right side of the ancestral hall lightly.

Gu Yao patted Yi Xuan's back, leaned into his ear and said, "Xuan'er, don't open your eyes no matter what sounds you hear later, do you understand?"

"Understood, sister." Yi Xuan hugged Gu Yao's neck and said in a trembling voice.

Gu Yao was a little distressed, she patted Yi Xuan's back lightly, and said, "Xuan'er, don't be afraid, sister will protect you."
