Chapter 149
Although thieves like to call thieves to catch thieves, they will not be so stupid as to send themselves to the government. After all, if they are found out, they will be sent to jail. As soon as these words came out, some villagers immediately dispelled the doubts, thinking that Ye Bing might really be Maybe they are innocent, and they all agree with her request that the village chief take them to the county town to report to the officials, and ask the master Qingtian to make decisions for them, catch the thief, and get back the food. There are about 200 households in a village with more than [-] people. People, if they all starve to death, it will affect the achievements of these officials.

What the villagers think is simply to get back the food and live safely until the autumn harvest, but the head of the village thinks more and farther, even involving their own rights and interests.

Although the officers and soldiers repeatedly arrested the strong men, but with the approval of the superiors, it is reasonable to say that the people should not disobey, but in order to save his son and grandson, he had to persuade the whole village to go to the mountains to escape disaster. A family violated the government to investigate, but it is impossible for a village to kill a group of people in cold blood.

Now that he has escaped with great difficulty, but he has to go to the government to report to the officials, wouldn’t he tell Master Qingtian that their Zhujia Village is blatantly against the court and refuses to go to the front line to defend their country, and then not only can’t catch thieves and can’t find food , and will be detained collectively, who knows whether to send them to the front line or to be locked up until they die.

"No." The villagers in Zhujia Village were confused, but the village chief would not join them in being confused. In order to save his life, he refused the reporter's suggestion without hesitation.

"Li Chang, why not!" Now that they lost their food, everyone was in a bad mood. Naturally, their attitudes became obviously irritable. They were going to starve to death anyway, and now they couldn't care about their status.

"You're ashamed to ask why not. Are you going to the government to tell Master Qingtian that you lost the food to avoid being caught by the officers and soldiers!" The silver was also taken away, and he had been holding back and not losing his temper. Now seeing that the villagers' attitude towards him was also angry, the bloody head was just roaring.

Because of the loss of food, they had already ignored the officers and soldiers catching the young men and their escape. Now that they mentioned it again, everyone felt very heavy.

As if thinking of some possibility, Ye Bing raised his eyes to look at the head of the village and expressed his guess, "Head of the head, do you think those officers and soldiers have stolen our food?"

In fact, the head of the village has thought of this possibility for a long time, but telling the truth means that he is really desperate. There is no way to get our food back. So it is still early for the autumn harvest, how can we live without food.

He sighed deeply, and cast a helpless look at Ye Bing. He really hoped that she would take away everyone's food, and then he could get it back directly.

The chief's silence is also a kind of acquiescence, and the villagers are unwilling to accept it. If this is the case, they can't report to the official, and they won't return the food. What will they do in the future? Will they starve to death?

"God, you are trying to drive us people to a dead end!" A farmer who was eight feet collapsed, squatting on the ground and crying loudly. There are twelve people in his family. How to live with food, no matter how much money there is, there are only a few copper coins. Every year, some of the grain is taxed to eat, and the rest cannot be sold for many copper coins.

Since they couldn't find the government or the officers and soldiers, they could only find Ye Bing, who was suspected in front of them, to ask for food, "Auntie, please return our food to our family, or our family will starve to death."

Seeing this, everyone followed suit and grabbed the only life-saving grass to ask for food, "Master Zhu, please take pity on us and give us back the food."
