The group of five did not walk for long

Then they saw Qin Jing, already dead, leaning against the alley entrance.

Behind him was Qin Ang, whom he was protecting tightly.

He stood firmly in front of Qin Ang, even though he was already dead...

Qin Jing didn't abandon him and run away alone!

Not far in front of them, kneeling, was Qin Jun.

His abdomen was riddled with knives, and his eyes were wide open.

He must have been worried that the thieves would harm his nephew before he died!

Qin Yunyuan ran over and gently put Qin Jing down, tenderly pulling him into his arms.

There was no shouting or screaming, no beating of the chest or stamping of feet.

He silently wiped the blood from Qin Jing's face with his sleeve.

Qin Xian also picked up Qin Ang and placed him on the carriage.

Qin Xing knelt before Qin Jun's corpse and wept bitterly.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. It's my fault. I couldn't protect you. It's all my fault!"

Qin Liang stepped forward and hugged him to comfort him.

"Third cousin, Second Uncle won't blame you. Let's tidy him up first and take him back, okay? It's so uncomfortable for him to kneel like this all the time!"

Hearing this, Qin Xing picked up Qin Jun's body and walked towards the carriage.

Wu Hua also flew out at this moment.

Using his own strength, he cleaned and preserved the bodies of the three men.

Qin Xing and Qin Yunyuan bowed to Wu Hua and then helped Qin Jing onto the carriage.

Wu Hua flew into Qin Luo's arms.

"Luo Luo, I can feel that Qin Yunyuan is in so much pain, it's like his heart is about to die!"

Qin Luo was startled by Wu Hua's words, and she told Wu Hua to return to her spatial dimension.

She lunged at Qin Yunyuan, hugged him, and burst into tears.

"Waaah, big cousin, are you really not going to care about me anymore? Not even Yun Han, not the Cloth Pocket Squad, not even Grandpa and Grandma?"

Looking at Qin Luo, who was crying loudly, Qin Yunyuan seemed to suddenly realize something. Yes!

I also have a younger brother and sister, and my grandparents.

I had just thought of ending it all with my father, without ever considering how much suffering the living endure!

The pent-up anger in his heart suddenly dissipated, and he hugged Qin Luo and cried loudly.

Qin Xing, Qin Liang, and Qin Xian also stepped forward and hugged the brother and sister, bursting into tears together.

Qin Luo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Qin Yunyuan's cries...

After crying for a while, the five people led the five corpses toward the north gate.

During this time, Qin Luo put all the grain back onto the donkey cart.

Qin Yunyuan held her hand tightly the whole way, and swore in his heart...

I will protect her just as my father protected my uncle.

When the five people arrived at the city gate

Qin Ling and Ji He, Wan Yun, and Qin Yunzhou, who have already woken up.

Bai Shao and Qin Yun Ning also ran towards them.

Upon seeing the corpse, Bai Shao was the first to faint.

Qin Yun Ning held her in her arms, without looking at Qin Yi in the carriage.

He was afraid, afraid to see his father, covered in blood and lifeless.

Qin Xing carried Qin Jun's body to the place where Wan Yun and the others had just rested.

Take out the water bag and gently wipe his face clean with a handkerchief!

Together with Qin Yunzhou, they changed him into clean clothes.

After doing all this, the family of three knelt before Qin Jun's body and wept…

Ji He looked at the corpses of Qin Jing and Qin Ang and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Doctor You tried to step forward to take her pulse, but she pushed him away.

"It's okay, I'm fine!"

As she spoke, she climbed onto the carriage.

Qin Ling stood silently beside the carriage, as if waiting for something.

Qin Yunyuan went over to help him up, and Qin Ling looked at his red and swollen eyes.

I patted his arm weakly.

"Good child, your grandpa and your younger siblings will be counting on you from now on!"

He knew Qinling was worried he wouldn't be able to handle the blow.

He deliberately gave him a reason to live, and nodded heavily.

"Grandpa, don't worry, your grandson has grown up!"

Then, Ji He could be heard coughing up blood and apologizing once again.

"My children, I'm so sorry! Mommy has gotten you dirty. Let me clean you up. Don't be afraid, Mommy will be with you wherever you go!"

After a short while, there was no more sound from inside the carriage.

Qin Ling could no longer hold on and collapsed into Qin Yunyuan's arms.

Qin Yunyuan half-held him, and Doctor You fed him a pill.

Qin Luo ran to Qin Yun Ning's side and fed Bai Shao a pill as well.

Qin Yunning grabbed her arm

"Little sister, is my father really beyond saving?"

He couldn't believe it, and didn't want to accept it.

His father, who loved to laugh so much and adored him so much, is now lying there motionless.

He dared not touch Qin Yi's pulse, nor even glance at him!

Qin Luo removed the hand that was gripping her arm and held it in her own.

"Fourth cousin, I've never met my parents, but I know that wherever they are, they would want me to live a good life!"

Upon waking up, Bai Shao heard Qin Luo's words and gave her a grateful look.

Then he turned to look at Qin Yunning and said

"Yun Ning, you're fifteen now, a man. You need to learn to accept life and death. Your parents can only accompany you for a small part of your life's journey..."

"Mother, do you also want to leave me? Then I might as well go with you to find Father. You don't need to pretend you don't care to comfort me!"

Qin Yun Ning roared.

Bai Shao, who had originally intended to die alongside Qin Yi, dared not utter another word.

The villagers of Qixia Village suffered heavy casualties, with nearly two hundred people fleeing to the city.

Now there are less than a hundred people left.

Jingming, along with his fellow disciples, chanted sutras for the deceased at the city gate!

Gradually, everyone gathered around the city gate, where the cries had been deafening.
