Chapter 156: 4 Smoke Signals
"Back off, back off. If you take a step forward, you will be killed without mercy."
The new team leader Tu Tianming rushed in front of Yu Hongfang, waving his spear to show his power.
He looked at the refugees with contempt; in his eyes, these people were like ants.
In his opinion, life is worthless and death is in vain.
Giving out porridge is such a waste.
The sensitive refugee easily caught the contempt in Tu Tianming's eyes and felt indignant in his heart.
They are all raised by their parents, why should they be looked down upon?
It's all caused by natural disasters.
"Brothers, death is inevitable, there is nothing to be afraid of." The refugee Liu Tianshun bewitched.
"Why should we starve and freeze, and be driven around like dogs?"
One word can cause a thousand waves, and the refugees are led by people with good intentions.
In an instant, refugees rushed out like a flood.
They poured into the city like a tide, with all kinds of weapons including sticks, pots, pans, kitchen knives, baskets, stones, snowballs, etc.
Although it is not as sharp as the long swords in the soldiers' hands, it can play a certain blocking role.
The sixty soldiers armed with swords and guns were quickly defeated when faced with the tide of refugees.
As the defeat became apparent, the refugees who had grabbed the swords and guns chased after the soldiers and attacked them.
Without their advantageous weapons, the soldiers were no match for the refugees.
On the street, a group of refugees were seen chasing and killing soldiers with knives and guns.
The refugees following behind broke into any shop they saw.
In the blink of an eye, the store was completely cleaned out.
Anything that was not edible was thrown on the ground and trampled on.
A gray mouse secretly popped its head out from the corner of the wall, but was so frightened by the chaotic and bloody scene that it quickly retracted its head.
...
"Dad, refugees are coming into the city."
Lin Shu ran upstairs quickly and whispered something to Lin Erzhuang.
"So fast, didn't the officials send soldiers to guard the city gates?" Lin Erzhuang said anxiously.
"I can't care about so much anymore, self-protection is the most important thing now.
Quick, guard the entrance downstairs.
Everyone close the doors and windows and do not make any noise."
'Papapapa~'
‘Dong dong dong~’
‘Da da da~’
After a burst of chaotic noises, the inn fell into silence.
Everyone hid behind a half-stone wall, not daring to make a sound.
My eyes were sore from staring so wide that I could only blink away the sadness.
...
Lin Shu stayed in the lower room, ready to put the livestock in the house into the space at any time.
A group of thugs wanted to eat her family's flesh, so they might as well go to the King of Hell to ask for it.
Lin Shu, holding the iron spear, could clearly hear the shouting and sounds of fighting two streets away.
The ground was shaking slightly, and the sound came and went like the tide.
Judging from the noise, it sounds like it is chasing something.
Lin Shu hid under the window, pressed against the wall to listen to the noise, but she couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Rustle~" She couldn't help but prick up her ears when she heard the sound of footsteps approaching.
He clenched the spear in his hand, ready to attack at any time.
"Brother Hei, there is a run-down inn here. Shall we go in?" Refugee B asked anxiously.
“What good can come from this shabby thing?
Go to the east of the city, that's where the rich live, and you can earn enough to eat and drink for a lifetime." Refugee A said decisively.
“Don’t be fooled by the large number of refugees coming in. Once the government reacts, nothing good will happen.
We just grab one and run, that's called knowing things."
"Brother Hei is more knowledgeable. He told me to go east and never west."
"Yes, we all listen to Brother Hei."
Several refugees did not stay at the inn, but headed straight for their destination.
Lin Shu, who was hiding in the house, waited until the refugees outside left before she slowly exhaled.
However, she hadn't finished vomiting yet.
'哐哐哐~'
The back door of the inn was hit hard and became a dead door in a few breaths.
Lin Erzhuang waved to the people hiding behind the door, and the four of them quickly hid in the nearest empty room.
Four pairs of eyes peeped through the broken window at the refugees rushing into the inn.
...
"Search the kitchen first!" a refugee said anxiously.
The four refugees who broke into the inn all ran towards the kitchen.
It was as if they saw countless foods waving to them, and some of them were wiping their saliva while running.
Lin Shu, who was squatting under the window, thought she was going to have a fierce battle.
Unexpectedly, the refugees went straight to the kitchen, which made her want to quietly get rid of the refugees in one go, and her dream suddenly became reality.
He gritted his teeth and cursed.
"This is a starving ghost who has never eaten in his eight lifetimes!
There is no professionalism of refugees at all, bad review! ”
...
After Lin Erzhuang and four other refugees ran to the kitchen, they crouched down and propped up the backyard door to block the entrance.
The four of them quietly walked towards the kitchen with knives in hand. They heard the sound of bowls being smashed and people being cursed, and looked at each other.
They all knew that the inn's kitchen was just a decoration.
Apart from the necessary cooking utensils, there was not a single grain of food.
How can an inn that doesn't provide food store food?
Not to mention food, there is not even a grain of salt.
They believed that the refugees would come out soon, so they waited outside the door in the hope of gaining access.
"Damn, what a crappy inn, there's not even anything to eat."
“It’s smashed, all smashed.
Otherwise, it will be hard to relieve the hatred in my heart."
After a crackling sound, four refugees walked out cursing.
‘Crack! ’
As soon as the refugee walking in front showed his head, his head immediately rolled to the ground.
Before the people behind him could react, they pushed the headless refugee to the ground.
"what……"
The second refugee realized something was wrong and instinctively opened his mouth to scream.
‘Crack! ’
The creepy sound of breaking bones was heard again, followed by two men with knives appearing.
The two refugees were hacked at with their swords. They didn't even get to see each other's faces before they died.
Just like the back door that they kicked down, he became someone else's victim.
"This...this is too easy!" Liu Xiaoming said in disbelief.
"As long as you are not afraid in your heart, you can defeat all demons and monsters." Lin Erzhuang said encouragingly.
“Is that really the case?
"I used to be terrified when I heard about refugees and bandits, but after experiencing them myself, they're not that bad!" Liu Xiaoming said complacently.
"No matter what, it's better to be careful."
Lin Erzhuang kicked the lifeless body and whispered.
"Leave two of you to deal with the body, and the other one will follow me to guard the back door."
After killing a refugee, Liu Xiaoming felt that there was nothing to be afraid of and took the initiative to follow Lin Erzhuang.
The random inn is located in a remote area, and the dilapidated house looks like it will collapse at any time.
The refugees who were running for food, gold, silver and jewelry didn't even bother to take a second look.
The people huddled in the inn held their breath, and watched through the windows as more and more refugees ran past outside.
I couldn't help but feel nervous, fearing that someone would break in and start smashing, looting and robbing indiscriminately.
...
"Boom~boom~boom~"
The sound of drums was long and distant, and smoke rose in the distance.
"Report~Foreign enemies are invading!"
In the barracks, an injured soldier rushed in and reported hurriedly.
"All soldiers, go up to the city wall, and notify the county magistrate to organize a militia to fight the enemy."
Captain Li issued the order as quickly as possible, took up his spear and went into battle.
