Just out of rating, it will rise, haha.
Tang Youyou opened her eyes and found herself an ancient, timid widow. Having been single for over 30 years, she inexplicably skipped marriage and chil...
"Ah!" a scream rang out.
Old man Li looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was a group of disaster victims.
Tang Youyou looked at the people lying on the ground, eyes full of shock.
"Old man, what should we do?"
"Don't talk!"
Old man Li was not panicked at all. These people deserved it.
"Little Leo, are these your grandparents?" asked Old Man Tang.
Leo nodded.
"What's going on?" Old Man Tang looked at Old Man Li cautiously.
"They ate poisonous weeds and got poisoned!"
Tang Wu bravely walked up to one of them and probed with his index finger: "He's still alive!"
After hearing this, Old Man Li panicked a little. After all, he didn't know where these people came from. What would he do if he knew that he was the one who killed this man?
Tang Youyou glared at Tang Wu: "Don't meddle in other people's business, let's go!"
Old Man Li was delighted and looked at her: "Can I go with you?"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
Two voices sounded at the same time, they were Old Man Tang and Claire Tang.
The father and daughter smiled knowingly.
"We met this little Li before, and now we've sent him back, and we're parting ways!"
Old man Li pleaded: "Brother, look, the three of us, grandparents and grandchildren, are all alone and helpless. If we stay here, we will die. Please have mercy on us!" As he said that, he was about to kneel down.
Tang Youyou raised her eyebrows slightly. This was even moral kidnapping. I wonder what was going on with this group of people? They all fell down, so how could this old man and the old woman get along so peacefully? There was something fishy about this matter. She must not let the wolf into the house.
"Alas! Brother, we are in a difficult situation too. Look, we have a family with family members and nothing to support. We can barely protect ourselves and we dare not put you in danger! Please don't make things difficult for me!"
"Brother, to be honest, I'm very familiar with this mountain range, and I also know a thing or two about medicinal herbs. We can be considered good companions!"
Tang Youyou pondered over his words about knowing a thing or two about herbs. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the people on the ground. Could it be that this old man killed them? There were forty or fifty men.
Only to hear the voice of old man Tang: "We will go over the mountain and take the official road. It's too scary to be surrounded by wolves and bears every day. If you want to follow us, you can follow us!"
With a wave of his hand, everyone took action.
Tang Youyou walked at the end, and she picked up more than a dozen kitchen knives!
The old woman asked in a low voice: "Old man, they didn't notice it, did they?"
Old Man Li shook his head. "I don't know, but it seems they're smart and don't meddle in other people's business. I just noticed they have a lot of food piled in one of their carts. If we can grab it, it will be enough for us to eat for a month."
The old woman was a little scared: "Why not just forget it? I think they are just ordinary farmers. It's not easy for them either."
"How can you be so soft-hearted? There's food right in front of you, and you're just going to watch?"
"But there are wild vegetables here, we can also dig them!"
"Have you forgotten that this is deep in the mountains? Once we get to the official road, there won't even be any tree bark to eat! Besides, they have a cow, so Little Li won't have to walk then."
The two were still discussing in a low voice here.
Tang Youyou looked at Tang Wu, who was at the end, and after much deliberation, she decided to put all the food into her own burden. Everyone understood her approach.
"Youyou, I think that old man is not simple!"
"Yes, I still remember when I first saw him, he was ready to commit suicide!"
"That group of people is quite strange. I always feel like something is wrong!"
Her words made everyone react: "They are all men, no women with children!"
Everyone suddenly realized: "I knew something was wrong. Everyone who flees famine brings their entire family with them!"
Yu asked quietly, "Are they bandits?"
Yao Cuihua shook her head: "Shouldn't bandits carry big knives? Look, all those you picked up are kitchen knives!"
Lin Huahua also agreed: "There are still some axes, it seems like a farmer's family!"
Butcher Zhang said tremblingly: "Is it the group of people we met earlier?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
"Don't make wild guesses. It has nothing to do with us. Anyway, everyone remembers that old man and his family can't be with us!"
"Okay, then let's go faster!"
So everyone started running, chasing each other.
"Hey! Brother, wait for us... wait for us..."
The three grandparents and grandchildren were chasing after them, panting.
"Run... why are you running so fast? Is there a dog chasing you?"
Old man Li complained endlessly, saying that this was not just a journey, this was simply a run for his life!
No one stopped until dark.
"Put up the curtains, make some food first, and then make tomorrow's food!"
Everyone had their own responsibilities, the younger children collected firewood, and the older ones lit the fire.
Tang Youyou was preparing to set traps around!
"Brother, brother, let's dig a trap ahead and lay a layer of branches. If any wild animals come at night, this will warn us in time."
They got to work right away, and the three of them were busy here.
"Ouch!" Everyone shuddered!
Tang Youyou drank the porridge and ate the houttuynia cordata, feeling relaxed all over.
"Things will work out when the time comes. Worrying won't help. As we agreed before, we'll take turns keeping watch at night!"
"Okay!" everyone said in unison.
This is the only thing I can do now, and I hope I don’t encounter any wild animals at night.
Just as everyone fell asleep, Old Man Li's voice came: "Brother? Brother?"
Butcher Zhang was a little angry. We'd been running around all day and everyone was exhausted. What was wrong with this guy? He was so annoying!
"What are you doing?"
"Um, is your dad asleep?"
