Chapter 306 Finishing it early will ease your mind
Red Phosphorus made up a name and started crying as he spoke, while Scarface frowned beside him.
"Alright, alright, stop crying. If we can't find it, we can't find it. It's not like we're starving. Let's rest for a bit; we still have a long way to go!"
As soon as he spoke, the two men turned their attention to Scarface. When they saw the large gash on Scarface's face, they immediately took two steps back.
Because of his scarred appearance, he looked fierce and menacing, and didn't seem like a respectable person at all.
Having witnessed this scene, and considering what Hong Lin had just said, if Cui Dazhu still didn't understand anything, then he must be completely dumbfounded.
"Brother, how can you talk like that? I've told you to speak more gently, why are you always so fierce?"
"You're just scaring your sister now, what will you do when you get married? If you're still this fierce when you get married, will your wife still want you?"
Cui Dazhu yelled and turned around to try to soothe his younger sister, but she was a bit difficult to comfort, and the more he tried, the more she cried.
Hearing his sister's cries, Cui Dazhu felt a chill run down his spine, then looked apologetically at the person who was standing there and wouldn't leave.
"Sorry, gentlemen, my older brother is just like that. He's always so fierce and often makes my little sister cry. Unfortunately, I'm not good with words..."
While smiling obsequiously, Cui Dazhu berated the scarred man beside him, while Hong Lin clutched her handkerchief and shed tears.
Upon hearing this, both men felt extremely sorry for Red Phosphorus, and their gazes towards Scar became even more unfriendly.
"If you don't like your older brother, then come with us!"
"Look at how many of us there are, we can definitely protect you, young lady."
Upon hearing this, Honglin glanced in that direction, then clutched her handkerchief and said, "Sir, you jest. This humble woman must go with my eldest and second brothers to find our relatives. How can I go with someone else?"
She had just finished speaking when another person walked over from the other side.
"You two were told to ask them what they do, why are you taking so long?"
The other person's tone was not good, and their clothes were different; they seemed to be someone of some status among them.
Sure enough, as soon as that person walked over, the other two stepped aside and respectfully lowered their heads, not daring to utter a single word.
The man looked at Red Phosphorus, then at Scarface, and finally his gaze settled on Red Phosphorus: "Where is the young lady? Isn't she with those two? I don't think they're good people. The young lady should stay with us."
The people who came over didn't ask any questions, they just said that Scarface and his gang were no good. Scarface took one look at them and was about to make a move when he heard this.
“Sir, these are my two older brothers. Although they look rugged, they are indeed my brothers. How could I abandon them and run off with someone else?”
"What do you mean 'your brother'? I think these two thugs are the ones who should be killed."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party immediately called out to the people next to him: "What are you all standing there for? Get rid of these two people who are trafficking women right here."
Upon hearing this, the two men beside him glanced at each other and, without the slightest hesitation, drew their swords and attacked Scarface and his companion.
He then went over and grabbed Honglin, pulling her towards the other group. Honglin, seeing this, forcefully shook him off.
"I thought they were just some dogs passing by, but they turned out to be disgusting maggots. It's really an insult to talk to you."
Before the other party could speak, Hong Lin inserted a silver needle directly into their forehead, and the other two did the same.
After she finished doing all this, she took two steps back, gave a proper bow, and left with the other two people.
They had been gone for quite a while, but the three men were still standing there. The people on the other side were getting impatient and shouted.
But the three people on this side didn't react at all. Someone came over and called them, but they still didn't respond. As soon as someone patted them, all three of them fell to the ground with just a light touch.
On the other side, Cui Dazhu looked at Hong Lin, who was in a good mood, and asked, "Miss Lin, what did you do to those three people just now?"
"I didn't do anything, what's wrong?"
"What did they say? Did they let us go so easily?"
That's right, it was too easy. He could tell that person wouldn't let them go so easily, but how did things turn out like this...?
"He probably thought we were refugees and looked down on us, so he let us go."
Cui Dazhu didn't believe this, but even if he didn't believe it now, he had no other reason.
Or perhaps it's true, as Honglin said, that they looked down on the three of them, which is why the three of them were able to leave so easily.
"Fine, if you don't like it, at least you left safely. Otherwise, I would have been worried that the guy might have done something to you."
Upon hearing this, Scarface glanced at Cui Dazhu. Wasn't this guy raised in the mountains?
How could anyone have such thoughts? And the woman next to me, she's clearly from inside the building, so why is her skill so strange?
Scarface didn't ask. It wasn't really his business; it was someone else's secret, and he didn't need to ask so much.
Traveling together as a group of three is much faster than traveling as a group of people. Without any other issues or extra people causing delays, they can continue their journey once they have rested enough.
But the people of Gujia Village couldn't do that. Their group included men, women, and children, and if they had to travel continuously, they might not have been able to keep going.
So they could only walk and stop, moving forward little by little.
It didn't snow today, but it's still very cold. Everyone has been walking all morning, so it's time to stop and rest.
Lin Long and Gu Wen stopped, and then everyone behind them breathed a sigh of relief, as they had been wanting to stop for a long time.
As soon as they stopped, Lin Long took two bags from another oxcart and handed them to Huani and Gu Jiao'er.
When Huani and Gu Jiao'er saw the two bags, neither of them immediately reached for them. Instead, they moved slowly. It wasn't that they were unwilling to do it, but rather that they simply didn't want to.
Just as the two women reached out, Gu Dachui caught Huani's pocket, while Lin Hu took Gu Jiao'er's.
After Lin Hu took the bag away, he stopped when he saw that the woman behind him hadn't followed. "Gu Jiao'er!! Can you hurry up?"
"You don't want to watch? Do you think I do? Let's finish this quickly so we can have some snacks!"
