In the evening, Zhou Ying could only sigh silently after hearing the news.

At the same time, she began to think about how she could secretly take out some food to calm the chaos.

But before she could think of a solution, the refugees on the mountain learned of the news three days later.

For a moment, there was a ruckus brewing. Gu Chengrui, who had sent children to keep an eye on them, immediately informed Manager Liu when he heard the news.

After receiving the news, Manager Liu immediately went to the military camp outside and deployed the remaining 500 soldiers to surround the refugees.

“What do you mean by this? Can’t we even go home?” An old man looked at the soldiers armed with swords and immediately demanded.

“Sure, 1’11 send them to escort you home.” Manager Liu nodded with a smile.

“You…”

“If you stay here obediently, you’ll be able to live, even though you’ll suffer a little. Otherwise, are you sure you’re not just delivering human meat back home?”

When the refugees heard this, they saw the soldiers eyeing them suspiciously, and they all became listless.

More than half of their strong labor forces had been gone because of conscription and labor punishment. If there were any more losses, the elders, women, and children wouldn’t even have a hope of living.

“As long as you stay here obediently,” Manager Liu continued, “we’ll do our best to protect you. Otherwise, don’t blame us for getting physical.”

After that, he brought half of the soldiers back, and the rest stayed where they were.

“What a terrible life! We’re eating wild vegetables every day, so much so that we’ve turned green inside out. How are we going to live any longer?” An old woman immediately collapsed to the ground and started wailing.

Her cry immediately caused a commotion.

However, they didn’t know that if Zhou Ying hadn’t scattered many wild vegetable seeds on the mountain back then, they wouldn’t have even been able to eat wild vegetables.

At that time, a young leader who was left behind stepped forward and said, “It’s already good enough that you have the wild vegetables on the mountain to keep you alive. The people outside don’t even have a leaf to eat. Even we only drink flour paste daily to fill our stomachs.”

“Indeed, this year is not easy for anyone. Everyone must be content with what they have.” Immediately, an officer chimed in.

When the refugees heard this, they were indignant. They could clearly smell the smell of meat every few days, so how could these soldiers be drinking just flour paste daily?

However, after a careful look, these refugees realized that these soldiers were all thin as sticks. Compared to them, they only looked slightly better and had stronger bodies.

The refugees were in even more despair. These people were all the third prince’s soldiers and were already in such poor conditions…

What about the rioters and rebellion outside…

They got listless when they thought of the rumors of humans eating humans.

A group of superstitious old women began to kowtow to the Mother God in the Mother God Temple.

At that time, the mother goddess statue was much cleaner, but its appearance looked more dilapidated.

This action of theirs also caused the elderly and young to do the same.

A few old ladies even discussed taking out all their private savings—less than 200 coppers. They went to the town to buy some candles and incense and to offer prayers to the Mother God.

They prepared three joss sticks daily and didn’t dare to stop even once.

Three days later, when Zhou Ying was sleeping in the middle of the night, she suddenly felt her body warm and went into her interspace.

However, she soon realized that something was wrong because she realized that she was as light as a feather.

She looked down and realized her feet couldn’t touch the ground. She floated like a ghost from TV shows.

Zhou Ying broke out in a cold sweat.. What was going on? Could it be that she was haunted?
