Quick Travel: After the European Emperor can sign in

Chapter 133 The parents on the road to escape 31

Back in the yard, Zhang Yuanlin sat down on a chair, huffing and puffing.

Yuan Xi was not that tired. He went to the kitchen as soon as he came back, so he didn't hear the second sister-in-law's words, otherwise he would have laughed out loud again. It would be quite tiring to laugh all the time.

"What's wrong with you? Is there a dog chasing you? You're walking so fast."

Zhang Yuanlin didn't know how to answer this question, so he said vaguely, "Nothing, just exercise."

Seeing that her husband was so tired in the house, she went to look around outside the gate, and then saw the clan leader. The two exchanged a few words and watched the clan leader go back.

in the kitchen.

As soon as Yuan Xi came back, he came over to look for someone. His three daughters-in-law, his nephew's wife, Huzi's wife, and others were all busy boiling water here. Yuan Xi had ordered before going out. Since the water shortage, he had not taken a quick shower. Now that he had the conditions, he needed to take a good shower.

There are only three members of Huzi's family, so they blend in with Yuanxi's family along the way. They are all in-laws and can be considered one family.

"Dad, you're back."

"Third uncle, how are you? Is there a lot of water in the well?"

"Are we still leaving today?"

Several people were chattering, and Yuan Xi quickly stopped.

"The clan leader said we should rest for a day and leave tomorrow. There is a lot of water in the well, don't worry, Lei Zi Daxing and the others are queuing up, and it will be their turn soon."

"Today our whole family should take a good wash. If we don't wash, everyone will stink."

Yuan Xi sniffed his clothes twice in disgust, "It's time to wash the clothes. Anyway, I'll wash everything that needs to be washed today."

The elders spoke, and several people nodded. In fact, they also disliked the smell on their bodies. It smelled like rancidity, plus the smell of sweat. That is to say, everyone was the same, and no one disliked anyone.

Well, Yuan Xi was disgusted with it at first, but over time, he got used to it.

Compared with other families in the village, their family is pretty good because Yuan Xi likes to be clean, and they follow his example. Even the children at home clean up neatly than other children in the village.

The whole day was spent washing and scrubbing at home. It was just hard work for Zhang Lei and others to fetch water back and forth. Finally, they drove to the well to fetch water until the water tank was full and then came back. The efficiency suddenly improved. .

Later, when there was not enough firewood, they went to collect firewood. Zhang Lei and others almost cried. They felt more tired than on the road. For a moment, they had the same idea as Shunzi's eldest son, it was better to be on the road.

Their family went back and forth several times, and the action was so big that other people in the village knew about it. In addition, the patriarch's family was also washing, so some villagers imitated it, while some villagers didn't care about it and ignored it.

After setting off the next day, the villagers gathered together again. Those villagers who had not washed themselves were as obvious as black spots on white paper. Everyone used to stink, but now they are the only ones who stink. Others avoid them and have to hold their breath when talking to them.

Feeling the feeling of being excluded, they hugged each other aggrievedly and looked at the large gap around them, their faces flushed and their ears hot, and they were filled with shame.

After leaving the village, Yuan Xi swayed in the carriage with the car, closing his eyes and concentrating. To be honest, he had to get used to this feeling, which was the same as that of a rocking car. His butt would be numb after sitting for a long time.

As soon as the car stopped, Yuan Xi opened his eyes, "Why did it stop?"

"I don't know, Dad, what happened before?"

Why are there so many moths lately?

Before Yuan Xi could speak, Zhang Yan got out of the car and went to the front to find out what happened.

After a while, he ran back and said, "Dad, it's bad, someone is blocking the road ahead. The patriarch asked you to go with Brother Huzi."

Starting from that empty village, Yuan Xi had a premonition that they would meet other refugees, but he didn't expect that they would meet them on the first day after leaving the village.

It was good to be close, and Yuan Xi was a little envious. They had to work so hard to get to the starting point, and the more they thought about it, the more angry they became.

"I'll just go over there, and Huzi will stay. You ask Huzi to instruct the villagers to change their formations and defend. I'm in front of you. You should pay attention to the back, and don't let anyone steal your home."

"Hey, okay."

He ran to find Qi Hu.

Yuan Xi jumped out of the car and ran to the front quickly.

At this time, in front of the team, the clan leader led the security team to confront the people at the fork in the road.

The atmosphere was tense.

Compared with the standard equipment of Zhangjiacun, where everyone has a spear, the weapons on the opposite side are various, such as pitchforks, kitchen knives, hoes, shovels, and even brooms.

The village chief opposite looked at Zhangjiacun, cold sweat broke out on his head. This group of people were fierce and fierce. They had the same look as the bandits he had seen before when they killed people. They had definitely seen blood and were well-trained. He took another look at himself. The crowd behind them couldn't help wiping their sweat.

As soon as he made a move, the clan leader also became nervous. There were many people on the opposite side, but at least they had defeated the bandits together. The clan leader calmed down and shouted to the opposite side. His tone was serious, and he felt like he would fight if he disagreed. .

The village head of Lijia Village opposite had his back soaked through, and he felt a little aggrieved. Brother, we just met at a fork in the road. If you want to go first, we can give way.

Before he could say anything, Yuan Xi arrived.

On the way to Yuanxi, he passed a message to several people in charge. After the arrangements were made, he rushed to the scene. Looking at the manpower on the opposite side, he immediately compared the strength of the two sides in his mind. After confirming that they could easily win in a fight, he relaxed. Quite a few.

"Clan leader, what happened? The other side is causing trouble for us?"

Yuan Xi still doesn't know why the two sides are facing each other, but it must be the other party's fault. Hey, he just protects his shortcomings like this.

The head of Lijia Village saw another person coming out from the opposite side. When the person came out, the faces of the people holding spears were respectful, and one person even handed him weapons.

This time it was even more serious. The head of Lijia Village was sweating faster. Hearing Yuan Xi's words, he couldn't hold back any longer. I wailed in my heart, how dare our village find trouble with you? You think too highly of our village.

Afraid that the other person would take action if they disagreed, he didn't care about his face and said sincerely: "Big brother across the way, we in Lijia Village are all farmers. If you want to go there first, we can give way. You go first." Please, we are not in a hurry.”

Fearing that they would not believe him, the head of Lijia Village immediately asked the villagers to step back and make way for them.

He looked timid and didn't look like someone looking for trouble. Yuan Xi turned to look at the clan leader with doubts in his eyes.

The patriarch coughed a few times and said, "You don't know, they were staring straight at me at that time. I was a little nervous when I saw a lot of people on the other side." He added, "The look in their eyes was scary."

The village chief of Lijia Village was a little embarrassed after hearing this, "Big brother, don't get me wrong, they just saw you drinking water and feeling a little thirsty. There was no other meaning."

"Along the way, I found less and less water, so..."
