Auntie, why are you running? I told you I won’t hurt you. 23us.

Tian Lin was bandaging the other party's wounds and talking nonchalantly, but the injured woman didn't care about the pain. She had long been staring at the bundle Tian Lin casually placed beside her. There were words in it.
The bread and dried meat given by the brothers before parting.
Hey, are you hungry? When Tianlin saw this, she took out a cake and handed it to the woman: Please eat.
Snap. She grabbed the pancake into her hand at a very fast speed and opened her mouth to bite it. The woman's devouring look and the sound of chewing made several people around her feel a sense of inexplicable pity. They all thought: Is this because she is hungry?
How many days?
Because she ate so fast, the woman almost choked and rolled her eyes. But at this time, seven or eight ragged people, old and young, were surrounding her. They all stumbled forward with vegetable-like faces.
Do you all want to eat? Seeing this, Tian Lin quickly took out the food in the bag. Everyone got a little bit, and the bag was quickly empty.
Shan, let’s go nearby to see if there are any small animals that we can catch and roast. After Agou said this, he turned around and left with Shan. This unsmiling man could not say anything heart-warming, but he could
Use practical actions to help poor people.
At this moment, the people holding the bread and dried meat were squatting or sitting still, and only the sound of chewing came and went. It seemed that their thinking had become rigid due to long-term hunger.
Ruotao saw that the woman she met first had eaten something. She was relatively normal at this time, so she couldn't help but ask: Auntie, I want to ask you about a businessman named Wan, who is in his fifties.
Years old, he is chubby and very kind. Do you know where his home is?
Hearing this, the woman who was about to thank Tian Lin for giving her food suddenly changed her face. She hurriedly shouted: "Uh, no, no, no, I don't know anything. Don't kill me. Don't kill me."
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman turned around and wanted to leave, but at this moment, a child with a sallow complexion and about four or five years old ran from a distance. He threw himself into the woman's arms and cried: Mom, I'm hungry.
Xiaoqing, my wife looked scared and didn't know what to do. Guan Heng and Agou came from the other side, carrying a few rabbits and fat rats in their hands. He said loudly: Come on, come on, I want to eat.
If you want to barbecue, quickly find some firewood to light the fire, and be more agile with your hands and feet.
Hearing this, the hungry people around him immediately ran towards the collapsed ruins and brought back a pile of blackened wood. In their eyes, the burned-out remains of their homes were no doubt the same as firewood.
The bonfire was set up, and the smell of barbecue soon spread around, and the remaining villagers of Gufeng Village immediately gathered around.
Tsk. At this time, Guan Heng pulled off a rabbit leg that was roasted brown and fragrant. He said: It's easy to eat meat. You just need to answer the questions I asked.
One of the crippled old men spoke up: Little brother, what do you want to ask?
That's it. We were entrusted by five merchants headed by Wan Laoda to send back some things from the northern border. Guan Heng said: I just want to know where Wan Laoda's family is at this time. Does anyone know?
Are you really coming back to deliver things? The old man paused and sighed: Oh, what a pity. Two days late, Mr. Wan and the relatives of the other four people were all kidnapped by the Nanle tribe.
When the Nanle tribe heard this name, Tianlin's face suddenly changed. Guan Heng said from the side: Tianlin, I remember you once said that Wan Lao and the others seemed to have accepted the commission from this tribe to find fifteen nine-leaf Xunshi plants.
Grass, right?
Yes, I didn’t expect these people to be so unreasonable and even kidnapped Uncle Wan’s family. Tianlin was sweating on her forehead at this time. She was spinning in circles anxiously and kept saying: Oh no, what’s going on?
Being able to do things well is more than that.
The woman who appeared first was holding her son Xiaoqing's head and sobbing: Those Nanle tribe guys are simply beasts. They are not only making things difficult for those few merchant families, but also for all the villagers in Gufeng Village.
They all also suffered bad luck.
Hearing this, Guan Heng's eyes suddenly narrowed. He first signaled Ruotao to distribute the roasted food to everyone, and then asked in a deep voice: What on earth is going on?
After hearing his inquiry, those people began to narrate the whole story while eating.
The Nanle tribe is a powerful tribe to the north of the capital of Chongguo. I heard that their tribe has more than thousands of people, and they have strong people and horses. This time they paid tribute to the Communist leader and prepared many good things, but they couldn't get enough of them.
There are only a few types, including the nine-leaf grass that the businessman Wan Lao Da and others were sent to look for.
That kind of nine-leaf grass, with a total length of three feet, square stems with yellow flowers and red fruits. Whether it is rhizome, branches, flowers or fruits, it is a precious nourishing herb that can prolong life and treat internal and external injuries. The wealthy gentry and wealthy people who lived in the three ancient countries
Nobles like this kind of thing, so they become the target of the Nanle tribe.
Wan Laoda and the others have been trading between the capital and the north of Chongguo all year round. They were recruited by the leader of this tribe with a heavy reward to search for Nine-leaf Xuncao. However, in order to prevent Wan Lao Da and the others from overdue and having nothing to gain, the other party forcibly detained the merchants.
relatives.
Guan Heng had heard all these things from Tian Lin. However, the guys from the Nanle tribe initially claimed that they would only send people to monitor the families of the merchants in Gufeng Village and that it would not be too difficult. But now they are sending people
He was also taken away, and he also harmed other villagers, but I don’t know why.
At this moment, the rickety old man said: Dear guests, I am the village chief of this village. My surname is Gao. You can just call me Mr. Gao.
Village Chief Gao, do you know why those Nanle tribe people are making things difficult for you?
Alas, these beasts rely on the strong to bully the weak, and they don't need a reason at all.
Hearing Tian Lin's inquiry, Mr. Gao was so angry that he shook his body. He said: Three days ago, a dozen horses came from the Nanle tribe. Those knights said that they entrusted Mr. Wan and the others to purchase nine-leaf grass. The deadline has expired. Now,
If no one or anything is seen, all the relatives of the five families will be taken away.
Not only that. A woman next to her whispered: Moreover, these guys want the whole village to collect a thousand gold shells as compensation for them. If everyone can't come up with the gold shells, they will die.
What a bunch of domineering beasts. After hearing these words, Guan Heng and Agou clenched their fists loudly, both of them were very angry.
Tianlin and Ruotao looked at each other and quickly asked: What happened next?
