"Has a tall young couple been here in the past two days? Driving a mule cart."
"Wearing strange black masks on their faces?" Among the refugees, the guards of Fengtian City were quite impressed by the two of them.
The main reason is that this mask is different, it looks like cloth but not cloth, and the color is darker than ink. Half of his face was covered, leaving only a pair of indifferent eyes, which were quite penetrating.
Putting aside the tall man, even the woman was about the same height as him. If she hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have recognized her as a woman.
Wang Er gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, that's them. Have they entered the city? Where are they now?"
The guard saw the angry faces on several people's faces. He thought they had some grudges and were afraid of causing trouble, so he quickly led them to find someone.
"Live with other refugees."
After opening the door, several people strode into the house where Jiang Yue and the two lived. As a result, it was empty and nothing was left.
The refugees hid in the house, peeking through the cracks in the door and not daring to say a word.
"Where are the people?"
The guard was nervous, ran to the next room, pulled out the homeless people inside, and shouted, "Where are the people in this room?"
"No, I don't know, sir!"
The people who were being questioned were trembling with fear. They really didn't know where those two people had gone.
The man who was injured by Jiang Nian last night jumped out and complained fiercely, "The two of them went out with the mule cart at the beginning of Sishi, and they haven't come back yet!"
Catch them both quickly and punish them severely to make up for the loss of blood and face! Damn it! Myrrh, I can only hold on. My hand hurt for half the night, I couldn't sleep, and I didn't dare to scream.
Wang Er gasped and slammed the door, and the old door panel immediately cracked.
He didn't care much about these two people at first, but now he felt like he was being treated like a monkey.
The guard looked at the sky and asked bravely, "What about the refugees today?"
Wang Er closed his eyes, exhaled, and calmed down, "Today's taking away, if you see those two people, I will arrest them!"
"Yes, I will inform the city gate guards everywhere today not to let anyone out."
Immediately afterwards, the guards kicked open the doors of each house, called all the refugees out, and gave Wang a second choice.
Wang Er frowned. He looked down on these refugees because they were skinny and crooked. They would probably be disliked again if they were sent to them. Nothing would go well with them!
There is no other way, now I can only make do with it. He clicked around, and sure enough he only selected twenty young, relatively strong-looking people.
"Is there not a single woman left now?"
The guard sneered, "It's rare for a woman to survive during an escape."
Most of them are just men. As for women, either their bodies cannot support them or their families do not have enough food, so they will be abandoned first.
There are only a few rich people, and you are only 13 to 35 years old. How can you possibly meet all these demands? If you don’t know, I thought you were choosing a wife!
The guard only dared to complain in his heart and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face.
Although this person is from the next city, whoever has the food in his hand is the boss now.
The refugees are in poor order and the team is sparse.
Jiang Yue and the other two changed into outer clothes, took off their masks, darkened their faces, and blended in with the selected people. In order not to attract attention, the two of them stood in two corners.
Jiang Nian bent his knees slightly, blending in and not looking so prominent.
A government official came to count heads. After counting three times, he came up with three different numbers...
Wang Er was disgusted and counted them himself.
After counting, he frowned, why did it feel like there were too many?
He couldn't lose his face, so he counted it again and found that it was indeed too many.
He looked back and forth, pulled out someone who was fishing in troubled waters, and threw it back.
Finally, he walked up to Jiang Yue and looked down at her.
Jiang Yue shrank her neck, lowered her head, and trembled, as if she was scared.
Wang Er raised her chin.
Jiang Yue is now 1.65 meters tall. She pressed her throat and her voice sounded like a boy who couldn't tell the difference between male and female. "Sir, I'm in good health. Please let me go with you! I want to work to earn food! I want to live!" "
He pinched Jiang Yue's wrist, turned his hand with his palm facing up, and patted the dust off. When he touched it, there was a thin layer of cocoon, but the rest of it was smooth and tender.
Wang Er snorted, his Chinese character face originally appeared to be an upright person, but at this moment, he was treacherous.
"Okay, just follow me. No need to walk, just sit on my horse."
Jiang Yue subconsciously retracted her hand.
"Hahaha——" He smiled even more heartily.
At this time, he seemed to feel a murderous intention. He turned around to look, but didn't find any clues.
"Okay, I will take this many people with me today. Come back in a few days."
"yes."
Several government officials led twenty-one people out of the city, and many people secretly watched through the cracks in the door.
Everyone knows that these people may not come back.
The old woman hugged her grandson and sighed, hoping that the kind-hearted couple had not been chosen. Good people should be rewarded!
The government officials had horses, so the refugees could only walk.
Wang Er looked down at Jiang Yue with an unpredictable expression.
She shrank her neck and said tremblingly, "S-Sir, I haven't had a bath in two months. My body stinks and there are lice. Don't let it get on you."
Wang Er took a look at her hair. It was dirty, but there were no lice. But he didn't say anything, just let her go and ask for trouble.
Taking a small road from Fengtian City, it takes about half a day to reach Zhaoyang City.
Wang Er took the person to a house, locked the person in, locked the door and left. They were not given any food or drink, nor were they given any shelter.
The refugees looked at each other and quickly rushed to grab the big beds in the big houses.
Jiang Yue was still looking for someone, and was dragged into a small room by someone inadvertently.
The door was closed with a bang, shutting out the refugees who wanted to come in and cursing them.
Jiang Yue was hugged tightly, her ears pressed against his chest, and she could hear the strong heartbeat.
She raised her head, stood on tiptoes and leaned in for a kiss, "Don't be angry, eh? I'm fine."
Jiang Nian frowned, his jaw tightened, and he wiped the hand she had touched on his body.
Jiang Yue wanted to say that the clothes on his body may not be clean, they are all dust. But seeing his angry expression, he didn't say much.
He rubbed it until his palms turned slightly red before he stopped and held her chin in his hands, kissing her hard...
After he calmed down, Jiang Nian looked at her seriously and said, "Next time I see him again, I will cut off his hand."
Jiang Yue smiled, "Okay, we'll run away once we figure out what's going on here."
She had previously suspected that some people wanted to take advantage of the disaster years to secretly develop hidden households, occupying more land but paying less taxes. This kind of thing happens frequently in disaster years;
Or raise an army and establish yourself as a king;
But now she suspected that these refugees had other uses.
