Chapter 228 A Different Xie Yuyan

In a blink of an eye, Hou Yuanji was the only one left on the official road, along with a row of carriages.

Hou Yuanji squatted on the side of the road and picked up a handful of snow.

Otherwise, he would find a woman to hang out with for a few days to prove that he only likes women.

But this is not the capital, and countless women will come over when he waves his hand.

He could see that the women who followed him from Fanzhou were protected by Lu Wanyin, so he didn't dare to move at all.

There were a few among the exiled prisoners.

The ones in the government office were ugly, and the rest were also dirty along the way. I lose my appetite just thinking about it.

That Xie Yuyan...

Hou Yuanji's eyes lit up, he threw the snowball in his hand and walked away quickly.

On the prisoner's side, it was so quiet that the only sound was the chattering of teeth.

They had no fire or shed, so they could only snuggle up to each other for warmth.

Lu Wanyin hadn't finished her meal yet, but her hands and feet were already almost stiff.

"Hey, if you have something to do, don't die."

Xie Yuyan's hoarse voice broke the silence of the crowd.

She looked at the pale Xu Yinghe and moved closer to her impatiently.

The three branches of the Xie family are not on good terms, and even though they are so cold to each other, they still treat each other differently.

The eldest branch of the Xie family has the fewest people, and Xie Ziheng and Xie Deyao are both useless father and son. The two of them huddled together and took a nap, and no one bothered to take care of them.

Xie Ziqian blocked the wind by himself and barely protected the two children, but he could no longer block Xu Yinghe.

Xu Yinghe had already been beaten, and along the way she was targeted by people in the government office who hated her and her husband.

Either he suddenly slipped or someone stuffed snow into his clothes.

The team collapsed shortly after it stopped.

Xie Yuyan didn't want to care at all, she just wanted to survive.

To survive, you must have someone to join forces with.

Xie Ziqian and she are both from the first wife's family.

Secondly, after the Hulukou Cliff incident, the only person she could look up to was Xie Ziqian.

Xie Ziqian wanted to say something, but he was blocking the wind and was afraid of waking up the two children who had finally fallen asleep. He maintained the same posture for a long time, not daring to move, and his whole body was already stiff.

I can't speak at all.

Xie Yuyan gritted her teeth and said, "Xie Ziqian, remember this, whether you succeed or not this time, you owe me a life."

After saying that, she stood up, crossed the official road, and walked towards the grove on the other side.

The other refugees saw her actions and looked over.

Seeing Xie Yuyan walked all the way to the grove without being stopped by the guards, his eyes lit up.

The woods are better than here.

Someone tried to follow.

Seeing that no one stopped them, more and more people headed that way.

After a while, Xie Yuyan came over with a pile of firewood.

She cleared a space next to Xu Yinghe and placed dead branches and leaves that were easy to burn on top.

He stretched out his hand and pulled out two clumps of cotton from Xie Ziqian's torn cotton coat and put them on top.

Xie Ziqian couldn't move and could only watch as she plucked the cotton, picked up pieces of iron and stones, and hit them hard.

The ding-ding sound made those who were still there very impatient.

If it weren't for the bailiff watching them with ill intentions, they would have beaten up the four people from the Xie family's eldest branch long ago.

This sound lasted for more than half an hour.

Xie Yuyan's hands were already numb, and the hand holding the iron sheet was even cut.

The blood dripped down.

But as long as it didn't drip onto the hay and cotton, she ignored it.

Xie Ziqian stared at her for an hour, and he was horrified.

He even felt that Xie Yuyan like this made him a little scared.

Is she crazy?

Finally, another spark was not blown out and fell on the cotton and hay, instantly producing a cluster of flames.

Xie Yuyan quickly picked up a dead branch and continued.

A ball of fire lit up in the snow.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, Xu Yinghe's complexion looked much better, and her hands and feet gradually became warm.

Those who were almost irritated by her suddenly had their eyes lit up and gathered around her, wanting to take advantage of her.

Xie Yuyan held the blood-stained blade and looked at them like a madman: "Whoever dares to come over here, I will kill him!"

She now looks like a lunatic who doesn't even take her own life seriously.

A group of people took two steps back, rubbing their stiff hands and feet, but still refused to go far.

Xie Yuyan looked at them and said, "Fifteen sticks of firewood, bring them in exchange for the fire, otherwise, you can make a fire yourself."

Everyone looked at each other, then looked at Xie Yuyan's bleeding hand, and ran towards the woods.

There are only fifteen of them. If you divide them among yourself, each person will only have two. It is not a difficult task.

It's always easier than making a fire yourself.

Xie Yuyan then looked at Xie Ziqian: "Put the two children next to the fire and sit over here."

Looking at Xie Yuyan's face which was red from the firelight, Xie Ziqian was horrified beyond words.

Is this really his sister?

How come he's become a different person?

Behind the carriage not far away, Hou Yuanji watched the whole scene.

He watched Xie Yuyan light a fire and start massaging Xu Yinghe's hands and feet, who had recovered much better, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Forget it.

Hou Yuanji shook his head and walked over to a bailiff: "Keep an eye on the people over there in the woods. Kill anyone who tries to escape."

"yes."

In the tent, Lu Wanyin was dozing in Xie Jingci's arms when a guard came to report outside the tent.

It was said that some prisoners left their original resting place and headed towards the grove.

Lu Wanyin yawned: "Kill the ones that mess around, and ignore the rest."

"yes."

The guards walked away. Xie Jingci held the stack of papers Lu Wanyin had just given him, not feeling sleepy at all. "This is the crystal core."

That was the information she printed out, related to the crystal core.

What he heard today had a huge impact on Xie Jingci.

He was very interested in the world described by Lu Wanyin.

From the moment she entered the tent and lay down, Xie Jingci became the legendary curious baby, asking her questions all the time.

Lu Wanyin spoke until her mouth was dry, and finally she took out a stack of information from the space and gave it to him.

These things were prepared when she was researching special medicines. They were left on the seventh floor of the gymnasium and she hardly looked at them herself.

Seeing how serious he was, Lu Wanyin thought she could finally take a break.

However, he overlooked the fact that Xie Jingci did not recognize most of the words on these documents.

"Yes, that's right."

Lu Wanyin perked up, turned over, and looked at the colorful pattern on the paper with him: "This green one is the plant-type crystal core, which is the only one I can use."

Xie Jingci nodded in understanding: "Madam's special ability is very powerful."

He has now fully accepted the word "superpower".

In the apocalypse, countless people praised Lu Wanyin for her greatness.

But obviously, Xie Jingci's praise sounded the most useful.

She perked up and turned the page of the crystal core in his hand: "This red one is a fire crystal core, the kind that can set fire by waving your hand.

The green one is the wind element, which can make people run very fast, um... similar to the very powerful Qinggong here, and can also use something like sword energy to hurt people.

…

This white one has a light-based ability that can quickly heal injuries. People with this ability are rare in that world, and each one is highly sought after. Unfortunately, their combat power is much weaker than other people with this ability. Without a strong backing, they will suffer miserably.
