Chapter seven hundred and seventy seventh unexpected appearance(2/2)
Zhou Sen naturally didn't know that after Shen Huimin was banned from entering the east courtyard, she stayed in her room all day, tinkering with some strange utensils to make elixirs. When she was not making elixirs, she worked hard to use her superpowers to control the flight of paper dragonflies. Now, the paper dragonflies
It has been able to fly more than ten meters without falling to the ground.
A dozen meters is definitely not enough. The distance between the west courtyard where Shen Huimin lives and the east courtyard where Zhou Sen lives is at least more than 200 meters.
Shen Huimin had no choice but to concentrate on cultivating her superpowers.
The East Courtyard seems to attract Shen Huimin with magic power, making Shen Huimin linger in her dreams and miss her deeply.
Every time Mrs. Zhu saw Shen Huimin staying in her room and practicing hard, she would secretly nod her head and admire her. This girl has never worked so hard in her whole life. Mrs. Zhu never dreamed that her precious daughter’s dedicated cultivation was not something she could do.
In order to live forever, but to write a letter to Zhou Sen.
In fact, Zhu's mind was not focused on Shen Huimin at all, nor did she notice why Shen Huimin suddenly tried hard to practice, because Shen Wan had been out for a week and still had no news.
There are only three days until the New Year, and there is still no news about Shen Wan.
Could something go wrong?
"Madam, madam..." Just when Mrs. Zhu was worried, Nie Si suddenly rushed in with a look of panic, without even knocking on the door.
"Um."
"There are... big... huge... large numbers of victims... pouring in from the direction of Dingjiagang." Nie Si gasped.
"How many? How far is it?"
Mrs. Zhu stood up suddenly, the joy on her face was fleeting, and she was not panicked, because this was a plan that had been made long ago. These days, she has placed eyes and ears on all official roads and paths, in case there are disaster victims
She will know about the event immediately.
The appearance of the victims meant that Shen Wan was about to go home.
"The number is unclear. It is estimated that there are several thousand people. They are still thirty miles away from Niejiaqiao. They will arrive at Niejiaqiao in more than half a day at most."
"Well, there's still time. Nie Si, you immediately notify all the housekeepers and shops and ask them to organize the strong labor force to clear up wasteland and rush to Shen's house. All the shops are closed and sealed. In addition, notify Zhu Tongzi and ask him to organize the workers in the East Courtyard.
and tenants, prepare them to resist."
"Yes, ma'am."
Nie Si, who was originally panicking, saw Zhu's calm face, and for some reason, he didn't panic anymore.
When the East Courtyard received the news, Zhou Sen had just gotten up and was squatting in the kitchen to warm himself by the fire. Now, when Zhou Sen is not practicing, he will stay in the kitchen. His room is dripping with water and turning into ice, and the fist-sized holes are pouring in with cold air.
The wind is like a biting ice blade, making it impossible to rest, which is completely in line with the saying "it takes a hard work of one's muscles and bones and a hard work of one's mind".
Shen Huimin didn't know that the hole she poked at random would cause Zhou Sen to suffer.
Zhu Tongzi gathered everyone in the yard, and after giving a morale-boosting speech, he distributed some farm tools as weapons.
In fact, Zhu Tongzi's words are a bit redundant. Whether they are workers or tenants in the East Courtyard, their families all live in the West Courtyard. Now that the mob has come, they have no way out and can only rise up to resist.
Rumors about the brutality of the victims turned into mobs have long been spread in Niejiaqiao. Even the honest farmers were ready to fight for the sake of their wives, children and families.
The atmosphere is getting more and more tense.
Because the Shen family was well prepared, when they learned that the victims were marching towards Niejiaqiao, the Shen family immediately showed great efficiency.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the land reclamation victims formed twenty teams and drove to Shen's house. When the huge crowd passed through Niejiaqiao Street, the residents rushed to get the news.
Soon, the news that the mob was rushing to Niejiaqiao began to spread like a virus.
The panicked residents began to flee with their children.
The wealthy families in the town were not afraid. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they began to distribute weapons and organize their servants to resist.
"Husband...Madam...there are...nearly ten thousand people...it will take at most two hours to reach Niejiaqiao..." Nie Si stumbled into the main hall of the Shen family, his face pale.
"What, nearly ten thousand people!" Zhu's face suddenly changed color. This was far beyond her plan.
The disaster victims are getting closer and closer, and more and more detailed intelligence information is coming. However, what makes Zhu panic is that Shen Wan has not returned home yet. Zhu has already discussed with Shen Wan that once the victims come, He would go home and direct the battle, but now, Shen Wan seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
Although Zhu was shrewd and meticulous in everything, she was still a womanly family after all. When Shen Wan was usually at home, she didn't feel that now that there was no news about Shen Wan, she suddenly lost her backbone and panicked.
"Mom, Uncle Ming said the victims are coming soon...Mom, what's wrong with you?" Shen Huimin rushed in like a tornado and asked quickly when she saw Zhu's distraught and frowning face.
"Huimin, your father hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid..."
"Mom, dad is a superpower, what are you afraid of!" Shen Huimin covered Zhu's mouth.
"Hmm, yes, your father is a superpower, so there is nothing to be afraid of, but... now the victims are coming soon, and there are many of them, nearly ten thousand people. Without your father to take charge, the Shen family may be in danger... No, Huimin, you have to leave here, leave immediately!" A trace of anxiety appeared on Zhu's face.
"Mom, if dad is not at home, I can't leave. If the Shen family falls, Huimin can still leave with Mom Feijian."
"No, it's too dangerous. There are tens of thousands of people, and your super powers are shallow. What if..."
"Mom, it's only tens of thousands of people, why are you panicking? We in Niejiaqiao have a population of nearly 100,000. If we all work together, we can drive them away immediately."
"It's too late. Although there are many residents in Niejiaqiao, they live scattered across the east and west of the river. They are scattered. How can you fight against those wolf-like and tiger-like mobs? You'd better leave as soon as possible..."
"Mom, isn't there Zhou Sen?"
"Zhou Sen..."
"Yes, Zhou Sen is very smart and can think of a way every time. Maybe he can also think of a way this time."
"It's useless. Now the mob will arrive soon. And our Shen family, with a total population of only more than 5,000 people, is only guarding a courtyard, not a city wall. There is no way we can fight against tens of thousands of mobs." ." Zhu said with a bitter smile.
"Why don't we ask Zhou Sen?"
"...It's okay, it's okay to ask."
