Chapter 112 Scum
Shen Li led two mules, followed by two horses, to the woods to eat grass.
The younger children also went into the woods to dig out bird nests by crawling into tree holes. They didn’t run far and everyone could see them.
Shen Li was standing in the woods feeding the horses when she suddenly heard two children screaming. The voices sounded familiar, so she immediately got up to check.
In the woods, Shen Xiaoya was digging a bird's nest in a tree. Not far from her was Lu Nian. Suddenly, she heard Lu Nian's scream and hurried to see.
"Let go, let me go!"
Lu Nian was pulled by a sturdy middle-aged man, and the little girl held on to the tree tightly and refused to let go.
"Shut up!"
The man also knew that there was someone not far away, so he quickly freed one hand to cover Lu Nian's mouth.
"Ah, damn girl, let go!"
Lu Nian opened her mouth and bit his hand hard. The man felt the pain and hit her on the back.
"Hmm~"
Lu Nian felt pain but didn't let go. If she did, this man would take her away and she would never see her brother and sister Ali again.
Shen Xiaoya suppressed the fear in his heart, climbed down the tree quietly, searched for a wooden stick as thick as his arm, and approached the two people quietly.
When Lu Nian saw Shen Xiaoya, he bit even harder. The man felt that the piece of meat was about to be bitten off, so he raised his hand and hit Lu Nian again.
As a result, before he could hit the dead girl, he was hit by a stick on the back. He staggered and the strength in his hands loosened a little.
Seeing this, Lu Nian quickly opened his mouth and hid to the side.
The man came back to his senses, turned around and looked at the two naughty girls behind him. Feeling the pain on his back, he wanted to tear these two naughty girls to pieces.
"You two damn girls, if you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you."
As he said that, he pounced towards the two little girls. Shen Xiaoya and Lu Nian had already seen Shen Li rushing over, and they ran towards her.
"Sister Ali, help me, there are bad guys here!"
Shen Li took the stick from Shen Xiaoya's hand and beat the man up.
"Ah, ah, I was wrong, help!"
Shen Li hit him more than ten times, then looked up and saw two little girls with bright eyes.
"Want to fight?"
"May I?"
"Okay, I'll watch from here."
Shen Xiaoya took the stick, and Lu Nian found a stick on the ground. The two little girls waved the sticks at the man aggressively.
The man wanted to fight back, but Shen Li stepped on him and he couldn't move. He could only lie on the ground and be beaten.
Shen Xiaoya and Lu Nian drank for a whole cup of tea before they stopped, panting.
It would have been a lie to say I wasn't afraid just now, but now I am truly not afraid anymore.
"All right?"
"Uh-huh, Sister Ali, I can't fight anymore!"
"Okay, go back and don't run around."
"Uh-huh."
The two went back hand in hand. After this incident, the friendship between the two girls developed rapidly.
Shen Li dragged the wailing man on the ground into the woods. As soon as she saw this man, she felt that something was wrong with him. His behavior and expression were very similar to those people in the doomsday who could not find food and thus turned their attention to their own kind.
Shen Li dragged him inside and threw him to the ground. The man staggered to his feet, looked at Shen Li with a gloomy expression, turned around and ran away.
When he was running, Shen Li stared at his back and found that his limbs were a little unstable. The two little guys just now hit him on the back and not on the legs. It was as expected!
Keeping such people around is a disaster!
A leaf appeared in Shen Li's hand and flew straight towards the man's heart.
The man staggered and fell to the ground. Shen Li directly used vines to drag him to a nearby pit, then turned back.
Shen Li walked to the horse and mule and found the two little girls still standing there.
"Sister Ali, you're back!"
"We're helping you watch them."
"You guys were great today, but don't be so reckless next time. If you encounter something like this again, remember to find an adult, okay?"
"Got it, Sister Ali!"
Shen Li held six bird eggs in her hand and gave three to each of them. "Thank you, Little Duck Xiaonian. This is a thank you gift. Go back quickly, or the adults will be worried!"
"it is good."
The two little girls took the bird eggs with blushing faces, then turned around and ran back to the camp.
Shen Li fed the horses and mules some grass and beans before leading them back.
When we returned to the camp, the atmosphere was still good. The two little girls probably didn't tell the adults about what happened.
Half an hour later, just as it was getting dark, Shen Changshan and his group returned.
Seeing them coming back so late and the expressions on their faces, everyone guessed that they probably didn't find any water.
No one was discouraged. Today was only the first day, and they still had to walk in the mountains for several more days. They would eventually find water, and they would not be without gain if they went out.
Look, each of them is holding his own harvest, including wild animals and fruits.
"I was lucky today. I came across a rabbit nest and caught several rabbits."
The rabbit nest was discovered by Shen Changshan. Everyone worked together to catch the rabbits. A total of 4 wild rabbits were caught. Shen Changshan took one, and the other three were divided into two halves, with each family getting half.
Shen Jingyuan took the rabbit and went to deal with it. Shen Changshan did not mention the matter of water, and the family tacitly did not ask.
After dinner, Shen Changshan took his three sons to the woods to exercise. They were still not strong enough, so they had to practice every night from now on.
Lin Hu and Lin Kun's eyes lit up, so they also took these boys to practice.
Next, Xu You and Shen Zhenyuan’s two grandsons also took the initiative to ask for advice and join their training.
The Shen family is so capable, yet they still need to train, but don’t they have to work even harder?
Shen Li looked at the boy who suddenly curled up and thought it was good.
These teenagers have to go through the fatigue of traveling during the day and have to train at night, so it is not their turn to keep watch at night. After all, many of them are still teenagers and are still growing.
Several little girls in the team were also practicing in the same manner. The adults did not stop them. In the past, they would have stopped them, but now they just felt relieved.
……
On the other hand, the team led by Shen Liubai did not encounter any problems in the first few days, but problems gradually emerged later.
Shen Liubai was not very old, and there were many people in the team who were older than him, so divisions gradually arose in the team.
They didn't know yet that even though they were being watched tonight, and the few people on night watch were not very attentive, they were already surrounded by refugees.
A group of refugees were crawling in the darkness, looking greedily at the team in the center. There were food, water, and livestock there. They no longer had to go hungry or eat those hard-to-swallow foods.
