This Second Male Lead Has Something Special

The scene was in chaos instantly. Su Lin lifted the package, grabbed his third brother with one hand, and said to them, "Dad, let's go forward."

"Okay." Su Tieniu nodded repeatedly, holding his second son's hand, and protecting his wife who was holding Bei Yatou, and followed behind his eldest son.

It was not clear what happened, but now was not the time to explore.

The most important thing at this time was not to find out the truth, but to escape from here before something happened. If it was just a false alarm, it would be fine, but if it was a bandit, I'm afraid I couldn't escape.

When fleeing from famine, I was most afraid of encountering such a situation, especially when everyone was panicking and didn't care about others and just ran forward, which might have separated their family.

Once they were separated and lost, it would be difficult to find them again.

So even when running away, Su Lin held his third brother's hand tightly, and kept his eyes on the others to make sure they were all here.

They were very fast, but the refugees chasing behind were not slow either.

Su Lin saw that the people in front of him were divided into two groups, some of them were going forward and some of them were leaning to the left. He did not hesitate and pointed to the left side to the Cycas Rex, and the family went in that direction.

This is a hillside with many trees. If you find a good place, you can hide and not be chased by the people behind you.

"Here, here."

As soon as they reached a stone wall, the time suddenly came from the front.

Gui Xingwang stuck his head out and waved at them, "Come and hide."

They were lucky. There were many stone walls in this place. There was a natural stone cave in a corner. If it weren't for the child falling down, they would not have found it.

It's rare to find such a good place. Instead of running around on the hillside, it's better to hide in the stone cave.

Cycas Rex carried Su Xi into the cave and was relieved after he gathered with others.

The road was short, but he felt that his heart was about to jump out.

Fortunately, the family was gathered together now, and no one was missing.

While the Cycas revoluta was panting, Su Lin was lying on the stone wall looking down. Their position was very clever, and they could just see the place where they had just been. There was no one there, and the people who had settled there had all run away. There were some items left on the ground.

It was obviously left behind by the fleeing people in a panic.

"It's that group of people!" A voice came from the side. It was Gui Xingwang who was in the same position as Su Lin. He looked strange and said, "Why didn't these people run away?"

That's right, not only did they not run away, they were also picking up the bags left there. They were far away, and although they couldn't hear what the group of people said, they could clearly see their expressions.

At first, this group of refugees was very panicked, as if they were being chased by something fierce and evil, and they all looked like they were running away in fear.

Otherwise, the people in the village wouldn't panic instantly.

But now, this group of refugees stopped and picked up the things left by the villagers, with a very obvious smile on their faces.

Almost instantly, Su Lin understood the ins and outs of the matter.

They were cheated.

"Damn it, these people cheated us!" Gui Xingwang's face was dark, and his fists were hanging heavily on the stone wall, "They just want to steal our things."

"How can this be!"

"No, we can't let them take advantage of us."

"Wait." Gui Xingwang stopped the people who wanted to rush out.

The person who was stopped was a young man, who pushed Gui Xingwang's hand away: "What are you waiting for? Those are the things of the villagers, they can't be taken away by them."

When the whole family moved, the things they brought with them were naturally things they were reluctant to throw away.

Now that these bastards have taken advantage of him, he is naturally not happy.

Seeing someone stand up, another woman immediately spoke up: "I just threw a big bag and immediately filled it with a lot of food. If they take it away, what will our family eat?"

"See that they are not many in number, why don't we go and get it back?"

"Will they be willing to give it to us?"

"They are robbing us, how can we not give it to them?"

Gui Xingwang was anxious, "How many of us are there? How many of them are there? If you come to our door, isn't it obvious that they will rob us?"

There were about a hundred people at the beginning, but most of them fled ahead of time just now. Now there are only about twenty people hiding in the cave. With such a small number of people facing the people below, aren't they rushing to deliver themselves to the door?

Niu Shunan, who spoke first, looked unconvinced, "So what if they have a lot of people? It is illegal to rob people's things. Aren't they afraid of going to jail?"

Su Lin on the side glanced at him and said lightly: "Look at their waists."

Waist?

Everyone subconsciously looked at it, and their faces changed after a while.

Niu Shunan's mother grabbed him back and said, "Shunan, hide quickly, don't let them find you."

Niu Shunan's face turned pale. If his mother hadn't pulled him, his legs would have been so weak that he couldn't even walk.

Except for Su Lin, everyone else hid in the cave with their heads shrunk, not even daring to breathe.

I always thought they were refugees, but refugees don't wear weapons around their waists.

Obviously, even if these people are not bandits, they should be pretty close.

"What should we do? They won't come looking for us, will they?"

"Shh, don't talk, shut up quickly."

"Mom, I'm afraid... Uh-huh."

The old lady covered the child's mouth and whispered, "Good boy, don't make a sound."

The people who just wanted to fight head-on were now scared like quails.

They didn't dare to show their heads again.

Even Zhou was so scared that her face turned pale. She had to cover Bei's mouth, fearing that the child would make a sound.

They were all honest farm children. Apart from seeing the yamen carrying weapons in the town, where else had they seen such an occasion?

Not to mention some women and children, even some men were so scared that their legs trembled.

Su Lin was also very nervous, but he was not too panicked.

The group of people below should be a ragtag army. From their behavior, it can be seen that they are not to the extent of killing people for these packages, otherwise they would not pretend to be refugees to scare people.

But even so, he did not intend to confront this group of people head-on.

After taking a look at the terrain and making sure that the people below couldn't see the inside of the stone wall clearly, Su Lin whispered, "We can't stay here for long, we have to leave quickly."

"Yes, let's go quickly."

"Life is not as important as things, let's run away quickly."

"They won't find us, right?"

Su Lin was not sure whether the people at the bottom of the mountain would come up, but instead of betting that they wouldn't come up, it would be better to leave first, "The terrain here is high and they can't see, let's go around the stone wall and go inside."

Someone was still hesitant, "Then are we still going to the Imperial City? Will we..."

"Uncle!" Before the man finished speaking, Gui Xingwang interrupted him directly, "Is this the time to think about this? It's most important for us to run away first!"

He was the one who wanted to go to the Imperial City the most, but he had to see the timing.

Even if he knew that there were other ways to get to the foot of the Imperial City, there were murderous bandits on that road, and he couldn't risk being killed, right?

The Imperial City is good, but you have to live to go there.

Gui Xingwang said no more, and turned around to go up the hillside without caring whether they could catch up or not.

Su Lin nodded to his parents, and then took his third brother's hand and went up.

After walking two steps, he felt that the hand he was holding was moving all the time. He looked down and found that Su Xi's wrist was actually bruised.

It was obvious that he used too much force when escaping.

Su Lin had cysts on both hands, so he could only hold Su Xi's hand and escape at the fastest speed. How could a child keep up with his speed? Most of the time, he didn't "hold" but "pull" Su Xi forward, and the force he used would naturally hurt him.

Rubbing the bruised place with his fingers, Su Lin lowered his head and asked him: "Does it hurt?"

Su Xi raised his head and grinned to show his missing front teeth, "No."

Su Lin smiled back at him, and put the place he held on the wrist that was not bruised, and continued to lead him uphill.

It was impossible not to hurt.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to help struggling when he held her hand.

But there was nothing he could do about the pain at this time.

When escaping, he would subconsciously hold Su Xi's hand, because one of the most painful things in his original body was that he lost his third brother.

It was also the same situation just now.

The crowd was crowded, and everyone was rushing to escape, regardless of whether they bumped into anyone or not, just rushing forward.

Once separated at this time, it would be difficult to find them again.

At least, the original body never got any news about the third brother before he died.

At that time, an eight-year-old child was forced to leave his family, and the end can be imagined...

So even if it would hurt his wrist, Su Lin still held Su Xi's hand tightly, and his peripheral vision would occasionally glance at the other four people to make sure they were all around.

After the hillside, there was a forest.

When they stopped to rest, Gui Xingwang took out the map in his pocket, looked at it for a long time, and then pointed to a direction and said, "Go this way and you will get out of this forest."

"Then can we meet other people?"

"My cousin and his family are not here. Can we meet them after we get out of the forest?"

"Damn the bandits, they separated us from the others."

Gui Xingwang thought for a while and said, "The two directions are the same, but I don't know if we can meet."

Instantly, a sad atmosphere filled the surroundings.

Everyone knew that it would be difficult for them to meet again.

Su Tieniu also sighed.

I wanted to walk with the villagers for more safety, but no one expected that they would be separated in just a few days.

Gui Xingwang said, "Rest first, we are tired after running for most of the day, rest early and we have to continue our journey tomorrow."

They found a place to make a fire, and more than 20 people gathered together, ate something casually and went to sleep.

Gui Xingwang started to count his belongings after the people around him lay down.

After counting, his face instantly fell, and he looked confused instead of the manager who directed the overall situation during the day.

He was the one who suffered the most losses this time.

Under the pretext of looking at the map to lead the way, except for two more important small bags, the other bags were given to other villagers to carry.

After what happened during the day, the villagers who helped him either got separated or lost his bag first when they fled, so now he has nothing except the two small bags.

The food in the small bag is only enough for him to eat for three or four days, so how should he go on the next road?

Just as he was worrying, he heard some movement next to him.

Gui Xingwang took advantage of the night to look and found that it was the eldest son of the Su family who was getting up and walking towards the forest on the right. At first, he thought he was going to the bathroom, but after waiting for a while, he didn't see anyone coming back. He thought about it and followed that direction...
