Marry a hunter to be husband

Chapter 40

40. Is Shen He looking for death?

After Shen Qian knew that it was not about his village, he felt relieved a little, but he could not come back from sleep, so he said to Song Lan, who was still talking to the women and husbands, "Mom, I'm going out for a walk."

Lu Jiu is naturally together.

Li Xiuyun looked at the backs of the two people and sighed deeply. In the past few days, the villagers hardly left the village unless they had important matters. The men, except for eating and sleeping, were always wandering around the village to be on guard for fear of someone sneaking out. Come into the village.

"I hope the government can take control of these refugees as soon as possible."

"I heard Uncle Heng say a few days ago that this year's taxes should be shipped to the capital at this time, and there probably won't be much food in the county government's warehouse."

Several people were talking and sighing again.

Several people guarding the entrance of the village were chatting and paying attention to the surrounding movements. When they heard footsteps coming from behind, they turned around and saw Shen Qian and Lu Jiu, so they told them about the surrounding situation, "After lunch, the last two The young man guarding the village entrance also left, and judging from the direction, he should have gone to Lijia Village next door. "

Shen Qian and Lu Jiu brought back news of the refugees. After that, they discussed with the village chief and clan elders how to set up defenses. They went to the county town to buy things for everyone, and they also thought of a place for people living near the village. The trap on the door, one by one, many people in the village gradually regarded Shen Qian as one of the backbone of the village, and they would naturally report the situation to him when they saw him.

Shen Qian asked: "The man who said our village had a great harvest yesterday is also gone?"

"Let's go. After those people gathered together and muttered for a while in the morning, that person left."

Shen Qian frowned slightly and said, "Ajiu and I walked around the village."

Those people continued to guard the entrance of the village, while Lu Jiu walked beside Shen Qian, patrolling slowly around the outside of the village. After they were some distance away from the entrance of the village, he asked: "Is there any problem?"

"The way that man looked at our village yesterday didn't seem like he would give up and leave so quickly," Shen Qian paused and said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it."

Lu Jiu said: "Everyone in the village is on guard. Even if he is unwilling, he won't be able to get in."

Shen Qian nodded. Everyone works in the fields, but the refugees have not had enough to eat for a long time and have traveled thousands of miles. The people in his village have been strong this year. As long as there is no rain, the refugees surrounding the village He is definitely no match for the villagers.

The two of them unknowingly walked to the middle of the village. Opposite was the mountain. In the hut at the foot of the mountain lived the brother and sister who had fled. They were the closest refugees to them.

Shen Qian stopped.

The husband and wife both looked over there. The woods there were very dense, and there were broken huts blocking part of them. If someone was hiding behind the huts, they wouldn't be able to find them in the village.

Fortunately, the autumn harvest is here now, and there are no crops in the field to block the view. The field is not flat. The side near the foot of the mountain is higher and the side of the village is lower. If someone comes from that side, they will be able to find it quickly.
