Zhuang Rou had already walked hundreds of miles away from the city. There were a lot of people following her. She had a tacit understanding and divided into three groups, separated from each other and followed her.

The poisonous bees have long died, and when they shoot out the poisonous sting, they will die.

It was getting late when I came out, and it was already evening. Zhuang Rou ignored these people and found an open space on the side of the road, picked up some dead branches and caught fire.

She took out two steamed buns from the package hanging on the horse's butt, put them on the fire and grilled them.

The people who followed her also stopped. They didn't expect to leave the city and brought nothing. They didn't dare to learn from Zhuang Rou and set up a fire to find food.

Who knows if she will jump up and run away suddenly, and where will she ask someone to come back?

And along the way, I felt that the bark of the tree was peeled a lot, so where could I find food?

They looked at Zhuang Rou from afar while hungry, just letting the horse eat some grass and drink a few sips of water to push it.

Seeing that the surface of the steamed bun was roasted golden, Zhuang Rou took off the dead branches and took the steamed bun to his nose and smelled it. Just as she was about to praise it, a smell of smell came into her nose, almost making her vomit out disgustingly.

She stood up in confusion and sniffed it carefully. The stench came from a small earthblock not far away. She didn't smell it just now, but the wind was wrong.

Now the wind was blowing from there, and the stinking smell floated towards her.

This kind of foul smell is not unfamiliar with it, it is a rotten smell.

It's not winter now. If something dies, it will rot in a few days.

After thinking about it, she walked towards the small earthblock, stood on the earthblock and looked down.

There was a pile of dead grass under the soil buns, with three people curled up on it, one big or two small, and it was already highly decayed.

Looking at the tattered old clothes on her body, you can vaguely tell that it is a woman with a pair of children.

Zhuang Rou estimated that they had been dead for at least four or five days, and this place was in the wilderness. The body was bitten by some wild beast, and the abdomen had been opened, revealing a lot of sticky things.

She stood there and looked for a while, and recognized that it was Guanyin land.

There is nothing in the wilderness here. It seems that they are fleeing victims. They are so hungry that they can't walk anymore, perhaps because they are thrown away as a burden.

Anyway, the three of them starved to death in the wilderness where no one was.

Zhuang Rou discovered that the locust plague in Qingliang State was much worse than she thought.

Especially those who are already poor, they have no ability to save themselves. Even if they want to be the ones they deserve for a few days, they have nothing to sell.

After staring at the three rotten corpses for a while, Zhuang Rou started to eat the two steamed buns in her hand with a foul smell.

She ate the steamed buns carefully bit by bit, and took the fallen steamed buns with her hands, threw them all into her mouth, and ate the two steamed buns completely.

As the sky gradually darkened, Zhuang Rou turned around and left, put out the fire and turned over the horse, and headed straight for the southwest.

As soon as she left, the three men followed her, and several others rushed to the small rustler, wanting to see what she was looking at here.

Everyone looked closer and frowned, and they felt something strange in their hearts.

Zhuang Rou stood here, smelling the disgusting stench of corpses, staring at three corpses that were chewed by wild animals, and ate two steamed buns.

I don't understand what kind of habit she is, it's so heavy-mouthed.

"Bah, it's so disgusting." Someone couldn't help but sniff, got on the horse and left quickly.

Some people also suspected that Zhuang Rou had stared at these three corpses for so long, so there must be some reason, but after holding on to the disgust and looking at them for a long time, she couldn't see any reason.

Under the urging of his companions, he had to get on the horse and leave and chase the people ahead.

After following for a few days, everyone slept along the way, hunger and never had a stable meal.

Zhuang Rou brought many foods, and everyone only saw her eating them once a day, that is, steamed buns or dry cakes. She has not stayed in any village and town for so many days, but she has not been tired.

Seeing that the sky was getting late, Zhuang Rou had no intention of stopping. She wanted to enter the distant mountains and forests, which made the people following her a little annoyed.

"Why don't she take a break if she is a human being!" a man cursed viciously.

"We guys are almost unable to hold on. What's going on with her? She's in such a good mood?"

Someone shouted: "You people from Jinlong Palace, go up and find out?"

"Ha, your imperial guards also want to instruct the people from our Jinlong Palace?" The three Jinlong soldiers with obvious spirits were better than others, sneered.

After all, they do all the dirty work, and their preparation and experience are more than others, so they can hold on for longer.

"Bah, what's the smug?" The man who called out cursed in a low voice, then looked at the other two.

These two people didn't know which one they were, but they followed behind them. They never talked to them, but just followed everyone indifferently.

The two of them looked xenophobic, as if they were not close to each other, which gave people the idea of ​​wanting to talk to each other.

Finally, a hoarse voice among the other group said, "It is not a solution to keep following this way. Join forces to kill her here, otherwise it will not be easy to block her when you enter the woods."

"Kill her?" someone questioned.

Most of the people present did not receive the order to kill people, and only asked them to stare at the person. Although they also sent people back to report the letter, they had not received the next order.

The people from Jinlong Palace didn't say anything. They knew that this was the dealer, but they didn't want to say it out now.

Their orders are double. In addition to keeping a close eye on her, they can traumatize her if necessary. If they are accidentally killed, they will be forgiven for being innocent.

The two of them thought very well and let everyone do it first. When they seriously injured Zhuang Rou, they would come out to block it. They would go back with Zhuang Rou, who was seriously injured and could not escape.

The imperial guards hesitated a little, looked at Zhuang Rou, who was riding a horse and walking farther and muttered: "This is a princess. If the emperor blames it, who can afford it?"

"It's really nonsense, then cut off your hands and feet, so that she can't escape, it's okay." The person who spoke was a little annoyed. Following these people was just procrastinating and not at all.

This idea is good, and the imperial guard immediately agreed, "Okay!"

"Okay, all of us will surround us. Whoever wants to show mercy and do some small moves, don't blame us for being polite." He threatened immediately when someone prevented the water from letting go.

No one objected, including the two who ignored him, so he decided to attack Zhuang Rou outside the woods.

Because Zhuang Rou had never rested, she just got off the horse and walked when she was tired, and she would not rush to the road. She couldn't stand it. She was not walking too fast into the mountains at this time.

Not long after, she saw six horses surrounding each other, and everyone knew each other, all of whom had followed her for several days.

"Finally I can't help it?" Zhuang Rou looked back and looked at her. The others were rushing their tired horses hard and quickly surrounded her.

She patted the horse's neck and said, "Big dark horse, look at these people, they are so bad, they are trying to make trouble for the horse like this."

"You go up and wait for me and be careful to kill you by accident." Zhuang Rou got off the horse with her shield and spear, gently patted the horse's butt, and let it stay away from her.

This horse was given by the little prince, and she could not die halfway through the road. Moreover, her foot strength was particularly good, so she was reluctant to hurt the horse.

Zhuang Rou had long thought these people were as annoying as flies, but she asked her to turn around and chase them, how could she catch so many?

Now they are finally willing to make up their minds and no one can leave. The wilderness outside the mountains and forests is their burial place.
