Chapter 281: Take Refuge

  The arrival of Jiang Goudan and his group disrupted the progress of Shen Qingqian and his group in rebuilding the house.

  When Shen Qingqian and Wu arrived at the entrance of the valley, Jiang Goudan and others had already started greeting others.

  "Goudan, why did you bring your family here? What happened?" Someone looked at Jiang Goudan and others and asked curiously.

  Jiang Goudan smiled bitterly, "We are here to seek refuge with you."

  "What? Join us?" Everyone looked at each other.

  Shen Shan frowned and asked, "Brother Jiang, you know our situation, so where does the word 'surrender' come from?"

  Jiang Goudan saw that it was the third son of the Shen family who was speaking, and his expression became more respectful. "Third son, you don't know, we arrived in Lanjiang County, and after some inquiries, we didn't find the acquaintance that Third son mentioned."

  Jiang Goudan and his group were fleeing from disaster. Northern Hubei had experienced a drought and there was no surplus food anywhere. It was almost impossible for them to settle down.

  The situation in northern Hubei is special, and the defense and vigilance against outsiders are particularly serious. Jiang Goudan and others were like headless flies and had been unable to settle down for more than half a month.

  When they separated from Shen Qingqian and others, Li Laosan gave them one month's rations. Seeing that the food was almost gone, but they didn't even have a place to stay, Jiang Goudan was extremely anxious.

  At this time, Mrs. Lu suggested going to Linshuigou to find Shen Qingqian and the others.

  After internal discussions and several days of struggle, Jiang Goudan finally led seven families on the road to Linshuigou.

  They walked slowly as they were carrying their families, and one of their children fell sick on the way, which delayed them for a few more days. They finally arrived at Linshuigou today.

  Jiang Goudan and his group went in another direction, so they met Shen Qingqian and his group at the entrance of the valley.

  "Everyone, we really have no other choice but to come to you, it's really..." Jiang Goudan sighed, not knowing how to start.

  If it were just him, he could make a living anywhere, but there were seven families in their group, more than fifty people in total, old and young, and it was not easy to feed them.

  In addition, he had seen the survival ability of Shen Qingqian and his gang on the mountain before, as well as the power of unity, so Jiang Goudan had the audacity to bring people over to find them.

  Sheng Ze and Shen Xiao were not here, and Wu did not come forward at this moment, so Jiang Goudan's eyes naturally fell on Shen Shan.

"Third Young Master, could you please show us some direction?" Jiang Goudan and his group all looked at Shen Shan expectantly.

  Shen Shan frowned, and after a while he replied, "Brother Jiang, it's not that we don't want to help, it's just that we are in a very different position now."

  He wanted to refuse directly, but when he saw the old people and children behind Jiang Goudan looking at him with hope, Shen Shan paused and then spoke again, "How about this, you guys come back with me first and see if my eldest brother and the others have any ideas."

  Jiang Goudan and his companions were penniless and had almost run out of food. If they were asked to go back, they would probably starve to death before they could even get halfway. Not to mention that there was the Lan River between northern Hubei and Chenzhou, so they simply couldn't get across.
