Chapter 399: Reason

Shouts, slashing sounds...
There were constant screams and roars outside the Grand Canyon.
Where has Tang Rou seen this kind of situation before?
Zhang Shengli had only briefly told it in the past, so she just listened to it as a story.
At first, I was just sighing at the cruelty of this world, and didn't pay much attention to it at all.
But when she saw this situation with her own eyes, her eyes turned red and her hands tightly grasped the stone next to her, but she was powerless.
"This kind of situation often happens in the wilderness. This is how I was rescued by my boss."
Although Gu Xuan was angry, she was much more rational than Tang Rou in this situation.
She grabbed Tang Rou's arm with both hands, fearing that she would run away impulsively.
You must know that the army below the Grand Canyon is the elite force of Dahuang City. Let alone these two weak women, even if everyone in Dahuang Mountain comes out, there is nothing they can do against these people.
"Why didn't they resist?" Tang Rou said this in anger, but she had to lower her voice.
"These are criminals who were captured and failed in the war and have no ability to resist at all."
"War? Didn't you say there is only one Fengtian Dynasty here? Why is there still war?"
"Wars between cities, wars between forces, wars between forces, the dynasty does not care about this kind of war, and is willing to do so."
Tang Rou took a deep breath and felt a little anxious.
If Zhang Shengli were here, he might be able to use force to drive these people away and save these refugees.
You know, if you arrive a minute late, a refugee here will lose his life. In just a moment, several people have fallen in a pool of blood in this grand canyon.
"No, why did they retreat?"
Just as Tang Rou was anxious, Gu Xuan suddenly stood up.
Outside the canyon, hundreds of cavalrymen were seen driving the refugees into the Grand Canyon, then suddenly turned around and left.
"Could this be a trap?" Tang Rou grabbed Gu Xuan.
"It's very possible that in the past, people rushed into the wilderness. At least half of these people would die by the time they entered the wilderness, and the remaining ones wouldn't be able to survive for long."
Although Gu Xuan said this, the current situation is another change.
There were so many refugees this time, thousands of them, with their hands and feet tied, and they lined up in a long queue. It was obvious that these people were different from the previous ones.
"Let's go take a look!" Tang Rou pulled Gu Xuan and rushed out.
"No, the boss is not here, we can't go out so rashly, it will be over if we fall into a trap and get caught."
"Then what should we do now? Just watch helplessly? Many people here are still injured. If they are not treated in time, they will die."
Tang Rou struggled several times to break free, but she was held tightly by Gu Xuan. No matter what Tang Rou said, she was indifferent.
Just as the two were fighting endlessly, Zhang Shengli and his group finally arrived.
"What's going on?"
"Cangshi, go accept these people and tell them about the situation here. If you are willing to stay, you can stay. If you are not willing, don't force it."
Zhang Shengli had just arrived when he saw the fleeing army.
"I don't know what happened, but they drove these people here and turned around and left." Gu Xuan explained at the side.
"Boss, are you falling into a trap?" Cangshi reminded from the side.
Zhang Shengli glared at him and said: "Go if you are told. There are so many traps, they are afraid, not just this time, but will be like this in the future."
"What's the meaning?"
"Last time I went to Dahuang City and met the city lord of Dahuang City."
"Did you negotiate with him?"
"What's there to talk about? I beat his son, but he can't do anything to me. And knowing that I'm settling down here, he naturally doesn't dare to provoke him easily."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Hong on the side became energetic.
"None of the city lords of Dahuang City are your opponents?"
"It's just a small city lord. From now on, we can come and go at will in Dahuang Mountain without worrying about being arrested by Dahuang City. As long as there is one less person here and there is evidence to prove that Dahuang City did it, I will go find them once."
Zhang Shengli's words were so confident that the eyes of the group of people behind him shone with admiration.
In the past, they were hiding away, but now they not only have a home, but they can also appear openly and openly. This kind of treatment has never happened before.
"You guys should also go and help. Those who are seriously injured will be treated on the spot. Those who can't be cured just call me."
After everyone heard it, they all rushed down the mountain, including Gu Xuan.
Just like that, Zhang Shengli and Tang Rou stood halfway up the mountainside of the grand canyon.
"Don't you go and take a look?"
Tang Rou still hasn't been able to recover from the scene just now.
Thinking of what happened just now, she still felt nauseous. If she hadn't been in good physical condition, she would have vomited it out long ago.
"It's nothing to see. They often encounter this situation and are used to it. They can handle it much faster than me."
Tang Rou opened her mouth, but she couldn't say what she wanted to say.
"Do you want to ask why they did this?" Zhang Shengli took Tang Rou's hand, looked at the situation below, and asked.
Before Tang Rou could answer, Zhang Shengli took the lead in explaining.
"Although I have been here not long ago, I know the situation here."
"It seems that the population here is sparse and the land is fertile, but because the planting industry is backward, many people don't have enough to eat, so wars often break out."
"And the origin of this war is not territory, but food and grass, so after their defeat, they were either killed or exiled to the wilderness."
"In this way, they can save a lot of food and allow their own people to live a life of food and clothing."
Listening to Zhang Shengli's explanation, Tang Rou finally understood the cause of the matter.
"So to solve the problem at its root, we must solve the food problem?"
Glancing at Tang Rou, Zhang Shengli chuckled and said, "It seems that we husband and wife have the same mind."
"Who is marrying you? We are not married yet."
After talking for a while, Tang Rou's mood gradually calmed down, and she even started to joke.
"What's the difference? In this wilderness, who doesn't know that you are my wife? Besides, we are already married."
Pooh!
"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't mean it. It's okay to make a joke here. If you dare to talk nonsense when you go back, I..."
"You...what about you?"
Tang Rou was so angry that she grabbed Zhang Shengli's arm and bit her directly.
"Stop! Stop! I'm wrong, why not? There are so many people watching."
Tang Rou then relaxed and looked at Zhang Shengli's exaggerated expression, feeling a little proud.
"Do you want to keep talking nonsense in the future?"
Zhang Shengli looked at the deep tooth marks on his arm and said angrily: "So cruel? You are committing murder."
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense to you. Let's go down and take a look. If we can save one more, you will have to rely on these people to help you farm in the future."
Tang Rou pulled Zhang Shengli and ran down the mountain.
