Du Yue looked at the group of people surrounding the convoy. She made a rough estimate and estimated that there were at least 300 to 400 people. It had been a long time since she had been robbed, and she had even forgotten what it felt like. The appearance of these people reminded Du Yue of her past feelings. She silently observed these people. It looked like they had not cleaned themselves up for a long time. They were all so dirty that she could not tell whether they were men or women, old or young. Although they had clothes to wear, they were so dirty that the original color of their clothes could not be seen. These people, regardless of their gender, all had messy short hair. Perhaps it was because of long-term hunger, but everyone was so thin that they were all skin and bones, and their heads were heavy. From their eyes, Du Yue could only see the word ‘hungry.’
After being robbed, Wan Dapeng, who had always been smiling, could not laugh anymore. He was a little nervous facing so many people, but he did not show it. He stood in front of the elderly and the children. He looked at the people in front of him with a serious expression. “Are you from the second base? Don’t you get food in the base? Why are you blocking the road and robbing?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing Wan Dapeng’s words, the leader cursed, “Those people in charge of the base only care about their own freedom. They don’t care about our lives. We’re all refugees, so we won’t make things difficult for you. Just give us half of your food.”
Wan Dapeng looked at the man with a never-before-seen viciousness in his eyes. “You’re dreaming. Unless all of us die here today, don’t even think about taking any supplies away!”

“Alright, you clearly don’t know what’s good for you! Brothers, let’s go!” The leader of the group called out to the people behind him, and the others followed him and swarmed forward.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Du Yue was just about to pull out her gun when she heard a muffled gunshot. Du Yue’s first reaction upon hearing the commotion was to look at He Xing, who was standing beside her. However, she saw that he was also confused. Neither of them fired, so where did the gunshot come from?
“Are you guys trying to rebel?!” A furious shout attracted everyone’s attention. Du Yue and He Xing looked in the direction of the voice and saw a well-built man walking over with a dozen people. All of them had guns in their hands, and the man in the lead was still smoking. He had fired a shot into the sky just now to deter the troublemakers.
Du Yue’s brows rose slightly when she saw the person. It was someone she had met before. It was none other than Guan Sheng. Guan Sheng’s expression was gloomy. He was just standing there without saying a word, but it was enough to make people tremble in fear. The people who were causing trouble earlier immediately became much more well-behaved after seeing Guan Sheng.
Guan Sheng nodded his head. “Alright, you guys can follow behind us from now on. You have to take care of your own supplies, and you have to solve your own food and accommodation problems.”

“The road ahead is blocked, and we’ve arranged for emergency repair. We’ll be setting off tomorrow morning, so you can rest here. I’ll arrange for a few people to stand guard here.”
After Guan Sheng finished speaking, he ordered the eight people behind him to stay behind before he left. Wan Dapeng looked at the eight people who had stayed behind. “Brothers, you can sit in our cars for a while. We can rest in the back.”
What Wan Dapeng was referring to were the only two off-road vehicles they had. The people who were originally sitting in the off-road vehicles had already gotten out and were walking toward the pickup at the back.
The eight of them did not refuse and immediately agreed. Before they got into the cars, they even gave a warning look to the crowd that had caused trouble. “If you have the extra energy to cause trouble, then you probably don’t need dinner.” Their words were direct and a clear threat. Food was the most important thing to the people. They blocked the road and attempted robbery in order to grab some food. However, not only did they not manage to snatch it, but they might have even lost the dinner that was supposed to be theirs. Naturally, they did not dare to be rash.
