The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Chapter 579 579 The next Liangjia Village

Li Yu sat on a big rock, ate some dry food and drank a few mouthfuls of rice soup. He went down the mountain from the east, planning to visit the opposite mountain and turn back tomorrow.

When the sun set in the west, I walked to the valley at the foot of the mountain and found two men of medium build in front of me, wearing coarse cloth clothes and trousers, holding machetes in their hands and carrying bows and arrows on their shoulders. One of them had a string of prey hanging on his shoulders. There were hares, turtle doves, and pheasants.

Li Yu deliberately stepped on a dead branch, causing it to make a crisp sound.

The two people in front heard the noise and turned around to see Li Yu. They stood there stunned for a moment, looking at her in surprise.

The two have square faces with rough and dark skin. The one on the right is probably in his thirties, and the one on the left is younger. The two of them look somewhat similar.

The two of them saw that Li Yu had a good appearance. He was wearing a dark-brown suit, carrying a sword on his back, and holding a long knife in his hand. He looked at them with slightly raised eyebrows, exuding a fierce aura that made people dare not look directly at him.

The young one glanced at Li Yu and lowered his head.

The older man was much more experienced. He was stunned for a moment and then came to his senses. He smiled and clasped his fists at Li Yu, "Sister-in-law also came to the mountains to hunt?"

Li Yu nodded, "Is the eldest brother also a nearby villager?"

The older man smiled and nodded, "My surname is Yang, and my name is Yang Lin."

He pointed to the man next to him and said, "This is my third brother Yang Mu. My family is in the Yang family'ao just in front. I have little land at home, so I go out to catch wild animals in exchange for money to support my family."

"Are there any valuable wild animals in the mountains?"

Li Yu said, pointing to the mountain ridge behind him, "There is no game in that mountain. I went up the mountain all morning and didn't see even a single valuable wild animal."

Yang Lin looked at the direction Li Yu was pointing, hesitated, and said, "You came up from Liangjia Village, right? There is no prey there long ago, and they have been hunted by those people."

Those people seemed to have discovered the gangsters gathered in Liangjiacun a long time ago. I don't know if they were pretending not to know, or they didn't dare to check because they were afraid.

Li Yu went straight to the point, "Brother Yang, are you familiar with the mountain ridges around here? Have you ever found a place like Liangjiacun in other places?"

Yang Mu raised his head and glanced at Li Yu, then quickly lowered his head.

After hearing Li Yu's question, Yang Lin regretted saying what he just said. He shook his head and said, "We don't dare to go far. We just turn around these mountain ridges. We haven't seen them near here, but we don't know what they are far away."

Li Yu saw their eyes wandering and felt that they must have discovered something abnormal.

After thinking for a while, he asked: "You are from Yangjia Village. Do you know Yingtao?"

Yang Lin hesitated for a moment, knowing that Li Yu heard the meaning of his words.

After hesitating for a moment, he nodded slightly and said, "I've also heard some things. We really don't know that those people are bad people. We thought they were sent by the government to guard Liangjia Village to prevent people infected with the plague from escaping."

Li Yu asked: "When did you realize something was wrong?"

"It was probably not long after the village was sealed off. I was only in my twenties at the time. When I went there for hunting that day, I found someone guarding there. We were not allowed to go near the mountain ridge over there. They said we had contracted the plague in the past and they would seal us off. village.”

Yang Lin paused for a moment, "Those people were armed with long knives and looked fierce. From then on, we didn't dare to go to that mountain ridge, and we didn't dare to tell our family when we got back."

Li Yu believed what Yang Lin said. People in this era were most afraid of plague, and they were even more afraid of plague.

"Brother Yang, if you find anything wrong while you are hunting in the mountains, you'd better go to the Yamen and tell them."

"You can also go to Liangjia Village and tell the village head there, otherwise more and more people will gather waiting for them, and there may be another Liangjia Village nearby."

After hearing Li Yu's words, Yang Mu's face turned a little strange. He pulled Yang Lin and said, "Brother, it's getting dark. Let's go quickly!"

Yang Lin nodded and glanced at Li Yu, "If we find anything, we will tell the village chief and ask him to report it to the Yamen." After saying that, Yang Mu walked away.

Li Yu watched them walk away quickly, and thinking of Yang Mu's expression, he felt that the two brothers must know something, and thought that he should go back and ask someone to ask.

Thinking of this, he had no intention of hunting, so he turned around and walked back the way he came.

The Yang Lin brothers walked for a while and felt relieved when they saw that Li Yu didn't follow them to ask questions. Brother

The two brothers looked at each other, and suddenly felt as if a stone was weighing on their hearts, heavy.

Yang Mu glanced at him and whispered: "Brother, do you think those people we found last time were bad people? Were Liangjiacun really killed and only a few women were left?"

Yang Lin looked in the direction of Liangjiacun with heavy eyes and said in a low voice: "Her brother Yingtao said so. Third brother, if those people find out that we have discovered them, Yangjiacun will be finished."

Yang Mu thought of Li Yu's words, "But it's possible what the sister-in-law said."

yes! Liangjia Village was slaughtered by them for no reason. What difference does it make between the remaining women alive and dead? Then I thought again: Liangjiacun is in a mountain col, and Yangjiacun is next to the official road. Those people should not be so bold.

Yang Lin thought about it and had no intention of hunting anymore. He wanted to go back and discuss it with the elderly at home.

"Forget it, let's go back too!"

Yang Mu nodded obediently and followed him back.

Before Li Yu climbed to the mountain ridge, it was getting dark, and a gust of wind blew in the valley. The low shrubs swayed in the wind, making a series of creepy sounds.

Li Yu took out a torch from the space and lit it. As he walked, he ate rice balls. He heard the sound of owls and unknown birds chirping in his ears. The timid person might break out in a cold sweat.

When he reached the top of the mountain, feeling a little tired, Li Yu lit a torch, picked up some leaves, split a few dry trees, cut them off, lit them, and sat on a big rock to rest.

Holding the knife, squinting his eyes, he rested for most of an hour, lit the torch and continued on his way.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, the chickens began to crow. Li Yu went into the space and put the mushrooms into his basket. He took out a few pheasants and hares that he had hunted a few years ago and tied them with hemp ropes. After thinking about it, he also picked up a roe deer. He came out and put the Ganoderma lucidum and Hericium mushrooms into his back basket.

After packing up, he returned to Zhuangzi with a bamboo pole on his back, a pheasant and hare in one hand, and a roe deer in the other.

Zhaocai opened the courtyard door and saw the game in Li Yu's hand. He quickly took it and carried it, smiling: "Madam, you are so lucky! You can also catch roe deer here."

You won’t be exposed! Li Yu glanced at Zhaocai guiltily, "Have you never shot a roe deer?"

Zhaocai said with a smile: "I have bought it several times but I haven't been able to buy it. Those hunters said that this thing is not very available here and that it is more abundant in Tongzhou."

Li Yugan smiled and said: "It seems that I am really lucky."

Aunt He and Uncle Zhou also got up. When they saw the fresh mushrooms in Li Yu's back, they were amazed, "These are good things! It would be great if the master and the eldest young master can come to Zhuangzi together."

Zhaocai sighed: "It's difficult!"

Uncle Zhou took out those Ganoderma lucidum flowers and said with a smile: "This is a good thing. When you get up later, you will be so happy when you see it."

"Yes!" Aunt He said, turning around and walking towards the bathroom, "Madam, I'm going to add some water while you freshen up and have a good sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

Li Yu nodded and walked towards the bathroom.
