I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 235 Listen

"Why do you say that, Taoist priest? If the wheat is left in the field, it will be a good thing for the insects and animals. If someone is willing to buy it, it will be a win-win for both sides.

Or do you think that after all the tribes have moved away, they can come back in time to harvest? "Shen Xiaoye really thought so. Since it is colder here than in the Central Plains, the wheat will mature a month later.

Taoist Priest Hengxi pointed out, “The wheat in the field is still green, so there will definitely be conflicts between buyers and sellers.

Especially at this time when the whole tribe suddenly migrated, the people on the grassland were panicked and suspicious, and it was easy for them to get angry and quarrel and eventually fight. "

"I didn't think about that." Shen Xiaoye thought what he said made some sense, but she couldn't take back the suggestion she had just made.

Moreover, when she heard the sound of horse hooves and opened the door, she saw the men who stayed behind leading dozens of strong women to set off.

She may not be unaware of the consequences, and said: "We can't stop it now, at most we won't go."

Taoist Priest Hengxi shook his head and led his disciples to pack up, leaving only the youngest female nun to accompany her.

The nun, who was just seventeen years old and whose name was Xuanmiao, said: "Armed fighting can kill people, especially on the grassland.

If you don't kill Bo Ren but Bo Ren dies because of you, Uncle Shi is worried that it will hurt your good karma."

"Fellow Daoist Xuanmiao, do you think these people and their ancestors cared about my people when they invaded the Central Plains?" Shen Xiaoye asked her back. She had only come up with an idea to buy food.

After a pause, he continued, "There are probably many people in the nearby tribes who share the same idea as me.

How can I, from across the mountain, incite them to conflict?"

Xuan Miao sighed, "That's right, then should we pack up quickly?"

"Yeah." In fact, since the team members left in batches, Shen Xiaoye didn't have anything to pack except his own clothes and blankets.

Her uncle had already bought some dry food and other things a few days ago, and there were two large sacks of rice in the space, enough to feed her and the remaining eight people in Taixu Temple for half a month.

Things were being packed up all over the camp, tents were being dismantled one by one, and the sky was slowly getting darker.

Nearing evening, several men from different families finally brought back baskets of green wheat. Everyone was covered in dust and dirt, and some even had blood on their faces. They went straight to Taoist Master Hengxi for treatment.

Only then did Shen Xiaoye realize that when they found the farmland, many people from the tribe were already harvesting wheat there, and the farmers were blocked outside the fields.

After asking, we found out that other tribes came to steal wheat and did not offer any money or goods.

Then, the Wu family led everyone into the fields to grab a place to harvest, and later they fought with other tribes over territory.

Because the strong women she brought with her had trained with Shen Xiaoye, they fought back quickly, accurately and fiercely, so no one died. They all came to thank her and said they would go to rob again tomorrow.

But their imagination was too good to be true. The next day, all the green wheat and green soybeans in the fields were gone.

Shen Xiaoye's plan to delay everyone's departure basically failed.

In the afternoon, she drove a horse-drawn carriage and joined the people from her headquarters in a caravan that seemed to have no end.

I walked like this for several days, but it seemed like I didn't walk very far at all, and today I was stuck in traffic again.

It was hard for Shen Xiaoye to imagine how a traffic jam and overturn could happen on the prairie, but it happened.

She wanted to get out of the car to check, but was held back by Xuan Miao: "Master has already gone to check ahead. He said he can't leave you behind."

"I heard someone calling me." The nine of them, plus two disabled wounded, were naturally at the tail end of the Mori tribe because of their small number. Shen Xiaoye and his nine companions had two vehicles and nine horses in total.

The first cart carried food, water and two injured men, and the second cart carried sundries. She and the female nuns drove the two carts respectively, with male disciples guarding on both sides.

Xuanmiao looked at his senior brother who was riding a horse beside the carriage. There were chaotic sounds all around them, people lying on the ground and horses neighing, and people and cattle and sheep were everywhere.

Occasionally, the herdsmen's dogs would bark loudly, waking up the babies in their cradles and making them cry loudly.

It was already May and the rising temperature made people unable to control their tempers, resulting in countless quarrels.

They listened carefully for a while and actually heard someone calling Xiao Ye, and were looking in the general direction of the voice.

Shen Xiaoye heard it again. She stood up quickly, used her hands as a trumpet, and answered loudly, "Here! Is that Qiqige?"

Then grab the knife, hang a piece of colored cloth on it, and swing it vigorously.

"It's me. I can't squeeze through." Qi Qige was behind her, two convoys away. When she saw Shen Xiaoye waving the flag, she also took out a brightly colored sweat towel and tied it on her knife in response.

Shen Xiaoye finally saw the flag that responded to him, and Qi Qige himself gradually showed his head from behind the tall cavalryman.

The two signaled to each other and planned to meet again in the evening.

But before noon, Shen Xiaoye felt that the small tribes behind were trying their best to push forward, and the two cars on his side were involuntarily pushed forward by the people behind.

“Fellow Daoist Xuanmiao, let’s go and see what happened before we go.” Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Qiqige’s weak voice came from behind the car, “Help me, people are almost crushed.”

Shen Xiaoye and several others reached out several hands and pulled her into the car. When they wanted to pull the person who was accompanying her, Qi Qige refused to give way.

She leaned against the car and drank the so-called herbal tea given by Shen Xiaoye, then whispered, "They said the emperor will catch up soon.

But you see many people don't believe this, always thinking that the world is so small. They are invincible.

But in fact, they were almost swept into their lair by the Great Zhou’s extermination camp.”

"Do you know where?" Shen Xiaoye took a deep breath.

Qiqige didn’t know, but she knew another thing: “Let’s make a deal, help get some knives or something.

Money is not a problem." She wanted it very badly, and her relatives also needed to have enough self-protection ability.

Shen Xiaoye said regretfully: "I don't have it, but the woman that Molichi just married should have it."

Qi Qi Ge smiled bitterly and said, “She gave them all to Moli Chi’s good servants. Even if there was any, she wouldn’t share it with me.

So you buy it and then give it to me, so we can wake up together."

"Let me try..." As soon as Shen Xiaoye agreed, his car was hit by a car from behind.

She jumped out of the car and was about to catch Qiqige again with Xuanmiao when the driver behind finally stopped the horse.

His series of apologies made the young Taoist priests feel embarrassed to ask for compensation, so they retreated to the side of the car to protect it and themselves.

Shen Xiaoye noticed that the situation at the back continued, with more and more shouting and cursing, and the same was true at the front.

She pricked up her ears and listened carefully. It seemed as if someone was saying that the Emperor of the Great Zhou was chasing them and Benya Khan ordered everyone to travel day and night.

Qiqige grabbed her nervously and said, “Help me find Morichi’s new wife and get thirty or fifty knives, quickly.

My family must not be without the ability to defend themselves." Otherwise, her family would be doomed to destruction.

"Wait until tonight. We can't get in now." Shen Xiaoye was about to comfort her again when she saw Taoist Master Hengxi squeezing in from the side and back.

The disciples immediately came forward but were stopped by him, who said, "Watch the carriage and horses."

After that, he approached Shen Xiaoye and said, "Don't leave after you rest tonight."

"Why?" Qi Qige asked the question that Shen Xiaoye wanted to ask first.
