Not to mention that she, a three-good young person who was born and raised under the red flag, would feel uncomfortable. Even those who could not read and wrote and only knew how to farm would feel uncomfortable all over. Anyone who has not lost their humanity would feel the same way.

Li Rui looked at the half-grown boy behind him with a cold gaze, "Li Xiang, tell me the truth, what's wrong with this piece of meat?"

Li Xiang was so frightened when his name was called that he trembled. Especially when everyone's eyes were on him, his expression became extremely tense and he became at a loss. He was so scared that he stammered, "I, I..."

"Speak!" Li Rui shouted.

"I picked up the meat from over there. After I picked it up, I happened to meet that man. He insisted that this was the meat he roasted and accused me of being a thief."

Li Xiang pointed to a half-grown boy in the opposite crowd.

Everyone's attention instantly shifted from Li Xiang to the other person.

The boy was not only stared at by others, but his own family also stared at him with inquiring, questioning and scrutinizing eyes.

He was frightened, his face turned pale at a visible speed, and his mouth trembled, "I, I, it's not me."

The bearded man stared at the boy and said, "Tell me in detail, what's going on?"

Under such pressure, the boy burst into tears and replied with a choked voice: "I saw those people fell asleep, but no one touched the meat, it was all burnt. I wanted to steal it back and feed it to my parents, but I didn't expect someone to rush out and snatch it away first. That, that meat was not mine, really, I didn't do such a thing."

As for the so-called food snatching incident, everyone knew what it was all about.

The bearded man walked up and slapped the boy, "Next time you lie, it won't be as simple as a slap."

The boy lowered his head and sobbed.

"Did you hear that?"

"I heard it."

The bearded man bowed to Li Rui and his group and said, "I'm sorry, this is our fault."

Things had come to this point, and Li Rui did not rely on Su Yin and her group to keep nagging them. He saluted them in return and said, "It's good that the misunderstanding has been resolved."

Both sides laughed away their grudges.

We are all refugees, so there is no need to fight to the death.

"This meat..." Nan Wu said.

Neither Li Rui's side nor the bearded man's side wanted it back.

Although they are not rich, they are not worse than animals, so they naturally will not take the meat back for consumption.

Nan Jingzhi, Doctor Li and others all looked at Su Yin at the same time.

Su Yin looked at the roasted meat and then at Li Xiang, "Li Xiang, take your sister to see where this thing is."

"good."

Li Xiang was a little scared, but still agreed.

Li Rui held his son's hand, and the two walked in front. Su Yin, Nan Jing and their group followed behind. The bearded man, who was supposed to leave, also followed.

The group entered the forest and after passing through a bush, they saw several haggard-looking men leaning against a tree trunk with their eyes closed. The fire in front of them had gone out at some point.

Nan Wu took the lead and stepped forward to the four men, pressing the long knife against their necks, but the other party did not move at all.

He squatted down and placed his fingers on their nostrils, but they were no longer breathing.

He stood up and said to everyone, "He's dead."

Su Yin looked at the four people, who were starving to the point of being skin and bones.

She couldn't tell if this was their first time, their last time, or both.

"Look for another part."

Li Xiang huddled behind his father. Li Rui kicked him and ordered him to follow them in the search.

Soon they found the head in a bush, but the limbs were not found.

"It's probably gone." Nan Wu sighed.

Su Yin found a location and started digging a hole.

When others saw her actions, they also joined in. There is strength in numbers, not to mention that the pit needed to be very big because there was only a small one to bury.

Su Yin took off her patched clothes. Li Rui saw it and quickly stopped her.

Although Su Yin's clothes were patched, the patches were few and the clothes looked good.

"Use mine. This can also be considered as accumulating blessings for my son."

If it weren't for the dispute, they would have probably done something wrong. Even though it was unintentional, they still felt a little guilty.

"Okay." Su Yin understood his intention and nodded in agreement.

Li Rui took off his clothes, wrapped the head and body, put them into the pit, and filled it with soil. He then piled stones on the small pile of soil as a grave.

Li Rui kicked his son and said, "Come here, kneel down."

Li Xiang did not dare to disobey. He knelt in front of the grave, kowtowed three times, and apologized.

Su Yin whispered softly to the grave, "May you be reborn in a peaceful, prosperous, and beautiful society in your next life, and no longer live such a displaced life."

Nan Jingzhi listened to her words attentively and felt curious about the peaceful, prosperous and beautiful society she talked about.

Is there such a place in the world?

I'm afraid it only exists in my imagination.

Su Yin was not a great person, but since she encountered such a thing, all she could do was to bury him/her.

If it is placed somewhere else, it may be picked up by others and eaten.

This was all she could do. She just hoped that the child could be reborn in a peaceful era in the next life.

Nan Wu's rough voice followed, "Child, be reborn into a good family in your next life."

The bearded man bowed three times to the grave and said, "I'm sorry for what happened before. I hope you don't mind. You are a good kid. Rest in peace, kid."

Mr. Wan Sanye, Doctor Li, Nan Jingzhi and others said nothing, but just bowed in front of the small grave.

After coming out of the woods, Butcher Yang and others had already met up with Li Rui's side.

Everyone in Lijia Village has packed up and is just waiting for them to come back.

When they came back, everyone looked at them.

Li Rui looked at their mighty team and asked hurriedly, "Yinzi, are you heading south as well?"

Su Yin nodded.

Li Rui was overjoyed, but hesitated when he opened his mouth, "Can we, can we go with you?"

There were too few of them, just his family and a few relatives with whom he had a good relationship, a total of eight households.

As if afraid that they would disagree, he added: "Don't worry, we will follow you and will definitely not drag you down."

Su Yin looked at those people. Most of them were from Lijia Village and were familiar with their family.

Now she didn't need Lijia Village, because with Nan Jingzhi and his group around, others would not easily come to provoke them once they saw them. But after Nan Jingzhi and his group arrived in Linzhou, she would ask them to separate. By then, their group, together with Doctor Li and the Zhang family, would only have sixty-one people in total, big and small, old and young.

If Li Rui and his group were included, their total number would exceed 100, and the number of young and middle-aged men would be twice as many, so the safety factor would be much higher.

"Brother Li Rui, you are joking. We are all from the same village. We can just go together."
