Zhao Yiming stood guard outside the carriage, while Tian An and the young man worked together to untie the ropes of all the children in the carriage.
"An An, hurry up." Zhao Yiming began to urge.
Tian An asked everyone to run quickly, and then he took the lead and jumped off the carriage.
Seeing that the other children had cleverly run away, the two were about to leave when they heard the voice of a young man coming from behind: "Young men, please stay."
Tian An frowned. What was this guy up to? It had been so long, those two strong men might have already returned. If we stayed any longer, none of us would be able to leave.
"We can only help you this much. The rest depends on you. We met by chance and we did what we could. There is no regret for the rest of our lives." After saying that, he pulled Zhao Yiming and was about to leave.
"My sister has fainted. I'm exhausted now. Please help me one more time. I'll definitely…"
Tian An turned around and saw the boy holding a little girl about four or five years old. The girl was very beautiful, and even now, when she was unconscious, she was still incredibly cute.
Tian An reached out to hug her, but the boy dodged him, "Outside men can't hug my sister casually."
"...Didn't you ask us to help you? How else can we help if we don't hold her?"
If she had known that saving someone would be so troublesome, she wouldn't have bothered getting involved in this mess.
"You, just support me as I walk." The young man said weakly.
Before Tian An could speak, Zhao Yiming said with a dark face: "An An can't help a man outside of her own."
The young man was stunned, then looked at Tian An seriously.
As a result, Zhao Yiming's face darkened even more. He pulled Tian An behind him and said in a cold voice, "Don't look at anything indecent."
The young man blushed and looked away, then handed the little girl in his arms to Tian An, "Trouble you... Young man, take care of my sister."
The four were about to leave when they suddenly heard footsteps in the distance.
Tian An looked up. Okay! This young man successfully dragged the two strong men back. Was he really not the spy left here by the strong men?
At this time, the strong man also saw the few people and ran towards them.
"Run!" Tian An ran, clutching the little girl in his arms. The boy hurried to catch up, but Zhao Yiming remained where he was, drawing the heavy sword from his back and striking at the carriage wheel.
The wheels of the carriage fell off completely, and the carriage overturned. He cut the horse's ties with his sword and slapped the horse's butt. The horse ran away in pain.
Seeing that the strong man was about to reach him, he calmly picked up the slingshot, aimed it at one of them and shot a pill in the face.
The pill hit the strong man's face and exploded instantly. White powder directly covered the faces of the two men, and the next second they fell to the ground.
Tian An looked back and found that Zhao Yiming had already dealt with the two of them, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The young man saw Tian An turning around and stopped as well. He looked at the fallen thieves with mixed feelings. How could he feel that the person who had tortured him for so long was easily killed by someone else?
Zhao Yiming didn't even look at him, but walked straight towards Tian An, and the two walked away hand in hand.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
"Hurry up, if you dawdle any longer you won't be able to catch up with everyone else." Tian An turned around and urged.
"I haven't eaten for three days and I can't walk anymore. Do you have any food? Give some to my sister first! She fainted from hunger this morning."
Tian An took a steamed bun from his bag and asked Zhao Yiming to give it to the boy. As for the little girl, Tian An had secretly fed her a long time ago, and by the time his unreliable brother remembered, she was gone.
After eating the steamed buns and drinking some water, the boy finally regained some strength. Soon they caught up with everyone who was waiting on the roadside.
"What is so important? You two must go back and find it." Seeing the two of them, the village chief took a few steps forward and said.
Looking down, she saw the child in Tian An's arms and was startled. "Don't say you're going to look for this child. Tell me the truth, this child isn't yours!"
Tian An frowned, "This kid must be at least four or five years old, and I'm only thirteen!"
He pointed at the young man behind him and said, "This is his sister. They got separated from their parents, and she fainted from hunger. Brother Yiming and I found her and brought her back."
"So that's how it is! I'm getting senile and confused." The village chief touched the back of his head awkwardly.
The young man also stepped forward and said, "Old man, my brother and I have been separated from our family. We have to trouble you for a while. When we find your family, we will give you a generous gift to thank you."
The village chief waved his hand. "Oh! Why thank me? You should thank An'an and Yiming. They were the ones who agreed to take you in."
The young man was stunned and looked at Tian An and Zhao Yiming in disbelief, "Do they have the final say?"
The village chief nodded, "Ah! You don't know?"
Now I know. The young man turned to look at Zhao Yiming awkwardly, "That..."
Zhao Yiming glanced at him coldly: "We don't support idle people."
"I will definitely work hard." The boy raised his hand and promised.
This group of people looked like simple farmers, and there were many of them, so at least safety would be guaranteed if we followed them.
The brother and sister followed Tian An and his friends on their journey. Tian An placed the baby girl on the ox cart and gave her to Xiao Kang and Xiao Qi to take care of. She didn't wake up until mid-afternoon.
When she woke up and saw Xiaokang and Xiaoqi staring at her, she was startled. When she turned around and saw strangers all around her, she was even more frightened. She pouted and was about to cry.
Fortunately, her brother came over in time and hugged her, and she stopped crying. "Yaoyao, don't be afraid, we are saved. The uncles and aunts next to us are all good people. We will be able to go home soon if we follow them."
Little Yaoyao nodded with her big eyes twinkling, "Yes, brother, I'm not afraid. We will be able to go home soon."
After being held by her brother for a while, Yaoyao took the initiative to return to the ox cart, "Brother, please let me ride the ox cart! I'm so tired from holding you."
The young man was not pretentious and gently put Yaoyao on the ox cart. He had been hungry for a few days. Although he had eaten something at noon, he was still weak. After holding her for a while, his hands began to tremble.
Not long after Yaoyao returned to the ox cart, she started playing with Xiaokang and Xiaoqi.
So much so that in the evening when everyone was resting, Xiaokang would quietly come to find Tian An.
"Sister, do you still have that delicious candy you gave me last time?"
Tian An touched his head and said with a smile, "Want some candy?"
Xiaokang shook his head. "I don't really want to eat it. I want to give it to my sister Yaoyao. She hasn't had candy in a long time."
Tian An was stunned. This kid is so young, but he can already use candy to coax a little girl?
"How many candies do you want?"
Xiaokang thought about it and pointed to two with his fingers: "Two! One for Yaoyao and one for Xiaoqi."
"If they both eat it, won't you be greedy?"
Xiaokang swallowed hard and said, "I'm not greedy."
Tian An looked at his little appearance with amusement and took out three candies from his bag and gave them to him.
Xiaokang happily took the three candies to find Xiaoqi and Yaoyao. But Tian An noticed that he did not eat his own candy in the end, and gave it to Yaoyao the next day.
And Yaoyao would always give him half of her candy.
