1789 There Is No Other Place

"Uncle Ding, where are we now?" Gu Xiaowan asked with a frown.

"We have already left the territory of the Qing Dynasty! And we just came from the main road and walked for half an hour. Here... I have never been here!" Ding Lun replied seriously.

This dense forest seems to have magical powers. He has been here before, but because of the fog and poisonous gas everywhere, many soldiers came here, and they were either killed by poisonous snakes or bitten by ferocious beasts. Here, they all shy away.

If he hadn't hunted rabbits to eat, he probably wouldn't have come to this deep mountain and dense forest.

Unexpectedly, in this winter day, the dense forest is unobstructed. The fog used to be invisible even to people who are close to Chi Chi, but this time it can be seen through at a glance. It is a miracle!

Who would have thought that there would be another cave here, and so many villagers would live here.

The middle-aged urchin who was still howling about having no meat to eat just now has suddenly turned into a wise middle-aged uncle. This transformation is also very fast!

Gu Xiaowan glanced at Ding Lun who was frowning now, and looked like a staff officer at the moment.

Gu Xiaowan took two steps forward, Ah Mo and Ah Zuo looked at her, immediately grabbed her sleeves, and said nervously: "Girl, don't go!"

Gu Xiaowan smiled and said: "It's okay, they are ordinary people, with you by my side, they can't hurt me!"

If it hurts, these villagers are afraid that they will hurt them!

Only by asking these people can we know why these people are so afraid of themselves!

"Girl, let's go, there's something strange here!" Kou Dan also said aside.

Seeing the nervousness of this group of girls, Ding Lun was aroused: "What are you afraid of, I haven't eaten meat yet! I don't know who has rabbits, so I'll trade them for silver!"

After finishing speaking, he walked straight inside by himself and shouted loudly: "Hello? We have no malicious intentions. We are here to exchange food. After the food exchange, we have to hurry!"

No one cares about him!

Still lying on the window watching.

Ding Lun shouted again: "Which one of you has rabbits or chickens in your house, I'll exchange them with silver!"

No one cares.

"Okay, none of them, right?" Ding Lun's face was livid, he finally found a village where he could eat meat, but these villagers avoided them like the plague, how could they eat meat.

"Okay, you don't come out, do you? Who will come out to exchange, I will give you five taels of silver for a chicken, and ten taels of silver for a rabbit!"

My darling, the biggest chicken is only about five or six catties, how about five taels for this one? And rabbits, one ten taels of silver?

The villagers hiding in the house were all moved when they heard such an attractive and completely unequal exchange condition.

However, this group of people did not know their origins, and no one dared to step forward, fearing that the same thing as not long ago would happen again.

There must be a brave man under the reward, and immediately, someone came out cautiously, looking like an arrow on a bow, running away at any time.

"You... What you said is true? Five taels of silver for a chicken, ten taels of silver for a rabbit?" The man looked at Ding Lun and asked incredulously.

"Nonsense, what I said is the water that was thrown out, there is no reason to take it back!" Ding Lun shouted loudly, with a vicious air.

The villagers who managed to get their heads out, seeing Ding Lun's fierce look, were so scared that they quickly shrank back and hid!

Seeing this, Chen Meng yelled, "Old Ding, your loud voice scares everyone!"

Ding Lun said aggrievedly, "I'm used to it! I can't change it, can I?"

Seeing that Ding Lun is sometimes calm and sometimes an old urchin, I don't know what kind of skills this person has, so that he will be favored by General Tan.

Gu Xiaowan stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Dear folks, don't be afraid. We passed by here, and the dry food was almost used up due to the long journey. We found this place just to buy some dry food from the folks. We don't have any malicious!"

"Buying dry food? Who are you lying to?" Seeing a frail and beautiful girl coming, someone boldly said: "We are a place where the Qing Dynasty and Nanling don't care. We are a group of ordinary people who are ignored. The Qing Dynasty is still Nanling, and when they come to me, they can be burned, killed and looted. We are children without parents, so we don’t care! If you kill us, who else will avenge us!"

"Don't worry, we're really just here to exchange dry food!" Seeing that these people didn't believe it, Gu Xiaowan knew that something must have happened here that made these people afraid, so she took a money bag and took it out. Some silver: "Look, this is the silver I brought. We are just here to get the silver to exchange for your food! We will leave after the exchange! Don't worry!"

Ding Lun and Chen Meng at the side also took out food boxes and other things from the carriage, and Chen Meng also echoed: "Don't worry, everyone, we are really just here to exchange food!"

Ding Lun wanted to say something else, but Chen Meng at the side immediately pinched him: "Shut up, what should you do if you scare people like this!"

Ding Lun grinned in pain, a middle-aged strong man actually showed an aggrieved expression, looked at Chen Meng sadly, bit his lip, and said nothing.

Those villagers have been hiding behind the door or window waiting for something to happen, and finally someone came out, holding two chickens in his hand, walking towards Gu Xiaowan tremblingly, one foot high when walking, One foot is low, as if a little lame: "You...you...really only

Want food? I have chickens here, you...you give me silver! "

Seeing this, Chen Meng was about to step forward to give the money, but Gu Xiaowan stopped him: "I'll go, I'm a woman, he thinks I shouldn't cause him any harm!"

Hearing this, Ah Zuo and Kou Dan nervously followed Gu Xiaowan. Although they didn't have a sword in their hands, they kept their hands on the soft sword on their body to protect Gu Xiaowan's safety.

Gu Xiaowan took ten taels of silver, walked forward a few steps, and a few steps away from the man, Gu Xiaowan stretched out the silver in her hand: "No, here it is!"
