Chapter 24 Textbook Performance
However, no matter how distressed she was, she took care of the supplies all the time, watching how much water was consumed each time and how many water bags were used in a day. How could she not know that the water in the house was only enough for the whole family to drink for three days under normal conditions?
If the refugees ahead of her were experiencing such severe water shortages, she would be even less likely to sell her own water.
"Sister, sisters, please stop doing this. We don't have any other food. You can see that we have so many bags because we are so poor that we can't bear to leave our belongings behind. I almost swept out the spider webs.
Oh, right! Look, we just passed by wild bean pods, and there are still some wild vegetables over there that we haven’t picked yet. If you go now, you can still shell some beans and dry them in the sun for food later.”
What I mean is that we ourselves are also looking for food while fleeing the famine. If you want to eat, you can also go and find it. We won't compete with you.
Shen Ying on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
Maybe she would try her best to protect the Shen family because of their blood ties. At least when disaster strikes, she would choose to inform everyone like she does now.
But if there is really someone confused in the team, she will make other preparations.
Fortunately, Mother Shen is not that kind of saint.
After Shen's mother finished speaking, those who were kowtowing looked at each other. Were they rejected?
The Shen family was about to continue on their journey. Shen Youtian and his two brothers were already pulling the reins, driving the cart while driving away the women who were still surrounding them.
But this group of refugees would never let them leave. They chased after them and tried to snatch the reins from their hands. Some of them tried to search for supplies in the car, while others protected their children in their arms and helped their companions to separate the Shen family, making sure that they would not dare to push and kill them, after all, they had children in their hands.
Shen Youtian watched his wife being pushed away several times, the reins being fought over, and the horses being let go. He became so angry that he picked up his knife and slashed at the side of a refugee.
With a clang, the knife didn't hit the refugee, but it just grazed his side. The friction between the blade and the fabric of his clothes, the horror of surviving a disaster, made him scream out instantly: "What are you doing! Killing people, killing people!"
Although he was scared, he still didn't leave, holding on to the frame of Shen's car tightly. He seemed to see the bucket, as long as he called more people, then...
Faced with this unrepentant person, Shen Youtian's response was to grit his teeth and slash at the man again.
This time, he actually hit his arm.
When the warm blood spurted out, there was a brief silence all around, followed by screams and wails.
Shen Ying was surprised, but she was the fastest. She took a short stick and stood beside Shen Youtian. "You won't listen to me when I talk to you nicely. My father has slaughtered at least 800 pigs and sheep. Do you think your skin can be tougher than pigs? I advise you to get out of here now, otherwise you will end up worse than him!"
As he spoke, Shen Ying also deftly turned the short stick, and it seemed that he was very familiar with the use of stick weapons.
"Ah, murder!" The screaming man was still wailing. Shen Youtian took a step forward, and he immediately rolled over and crawled several meters away before being dragged to a safe place by a father and daughter.
Shen Ying narrowed her eyes and turned around to ask all the Shen family members to take out their weapons. "If we were to show compassion today, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to protect even a mouthful of water or a handful of rice. If we don't want to be like them, we should take up arms to resist. Kill them one by one and kill them two by two. When the time comes, we can strip them of their clothes and make a few pairs of shoes to wear!"
The actress's dialogue skills are nothing to be underestimated. The working actress never uses numbers one, two, three for post-dubbing. Her pronunciation, intonation and voice are all excellent. At the very least, she is impressive enough to fool this group of people!
The Shen family was so excited by these words that they all rushed forward. The women and children were in the middle, and the men with knives were on the outside, confronting the group of refugees.
When the refugees saw that it was not just Shen Youtian who had the knife, but the entire team, they began to retreat.
But leaving like that would make me feel sad.
So he complained: "You have so many carriages and horses, and the extra food for them, why don't you share some with us? Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. We are all fleeing famine to find a way to survive, why are you so vicious? Not only do you not help, but you also want to hurt my people!"
Seeing that no one from the Shen family came out to confront her, Shen Ying continued the conversation: "Didn't my mother help you? She pointed out the wild bean pods and wild vegetables behind the road, but not only did you not thank her, you also came to steal them.
Someone who is really hungry will go find food directly, instead of having the energy to rob other people's car frames like you do. I see you are so skilled, you must have done this more than once. I don't care how successful you have been with others before, but it won't work here!"
Such words were obviously of little use. Several people approached with sticks and stones. The Shen family noticed and immediately surrounded them. A fight was about to break out.
"You don't know how to live or die!" Shen Ying suddenly got angry and hit the person closest to her with a short stick. At the same time, she narrowed her eyes and took out the pepper spray that she had not used up yesterday.
Stab! Stab!
"My eyes! Ah! My eyes are blind! You poisoned me!"
Shen Ying laughed: "Yes, why do you think we were able to escape the famine together as a family? Because we are poisoned. Who else wants to try it? I don't have an antidote!"
"She's poisonous! Get out of the way!"
"What a vicious woman. No wonder she's so ugly."
"We just want to survive! Why is it so hard!"
"I won't rob anymore. I'm going to pick up beans. Don't kill me!"
Shen Ying stood there expressionlessly. Hmm? Was there something strange mixed in with what she said just now?
Lian Bihe huddled in the corner of the carriage and didn't dare to come over. She watched the conflict between the Shen family and the refugees, from pushing and shoving to siege and then to knife-fighting, she didn't move.
After all, my legs were too weak to take it anymore.
In her eyes, Shen Ying at this moment was not much gentler than Shen Youtian who had just chopped someone down. Her face was ferocious and terrifying.
Even Bihe was trembling, and the refugees really scattered to the side. Shen Ying deliberately approached a few people holding children, and they screamed and ran away without even looking back.
With their escape as an example, one by one, they followed each other's moves, and the refugees blocking the road retreated.
Shen Youtian hurriedly called on everyone to get on the road, and the convoy started moving again, anxious to leave this place of trouble.
To be honest, they haven't recovered yet. How could a group of poor people suddenly turn into bandits?
Shen Ying stood there, looking at the pool of blood on the ground, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Let's go!" Shen's mother came over and pulled her. At this time, only Shen's mother treated Shen Ying the same as before.
Shen Ying was dragged away, thinking that if her performance was recorded, it would probably be a classic textbook acting that would last for a hundred years.
