"Brother, walk slower! I can hardly keep up with you!"
"I always tell you to exercise but you don't listen. Now you fail at the crucial moment. How much does my mother weigh? You can't even carry her! You have grown to 1.8 meters tall in vain!"
"Brother... stop talking! I could have predicted the thick fog and poisonous bees! You can't blame me for that! Brother... why don't we stop and rest for a while! I... I really can't carry it anymore."
"It's been a while since mom and dad were stung by a bee. We can't waste any more time on the road. Just hold on. You can rest as long as you want when you get to the hospital."
The two men's conversation came from far away and Su Keke could hear it clearly. It sounded like they were also sending someone to the hospital.
Not long after, two blond and blue-eyed local men appeared in the sight of Su Keke and the others. They looked about 1.8 meters tall, each carrying a person on their back, and they seemed to be sending someone to the hospital.
"Hey! Brother! There are people here!" The man who was having some difficulty carrying the person on his back was suddenly startled when he saw Su Keke and the others in the fog.
"Why are you so startled? I'm not blind!"
The other man had actually seen Su Keke and Chen Lu a long time ago. He also saw Su Keke and the others pushing a cart, and immediately an idea came to his mind.
He approached slowly and calmly, wanting to see how many people were on Su Keke's side, and whether there were any men besides these women?
Unexpectedly, his unreliable brother started shouting as soon as he came, as if he was afraid that others didn't know someone was coming.
Su Keke and Chen Lu just glanced at each other and then decided to leave quickly. It was not a good thing to meet strangers in the fog.
"Brother! This shopping cart of theirs is really great! Why didn't we think of getting a few of these shopping carts from the supermarket and putting them at home?"
"Oh no, brother! I need to sit down and rest for a while. You should put dad down and let him rest for a while too."
The younger brother, who usually lacks exercise, is now gasping for breath. He doesn't care whether this place is safe or not. He puts the woman he is carrying on the ground and sits down on it.
"Nilie, you just said that it would be nice if we had a cart like this, right?" Brother Nilin asked with a malicious look on his face, looking at the backs of Su Keke and the others.
The younger brother Nilie didn't understand what was going on, so he casually replied, "Of course it's good! Pushing a cart is definitely easier than carrying it on your back! Brother, aren't you just talking nonsense?"
"Okay! Mom and Dad, you watch first. I'll go borrow a cart from those people." Nilin bent down, put the man he was carrying next to his younger brother Nile, and went to chase Su Keke and the others.
"Brother! They only have three wheelbarrows, why would they lend them to you?" The younger brother Nilie was a little confused, thinking that there shouldn't be such a stupid person in the world! But his brother had already caught up, so he had to give up.
Su Keke had only taken a few steps when she noticed someone approaching them quickly. Judging from the footsteps, there should be only one person.
"Sister Lu! Someone is following us!" Su Keke said softly.
"Could it be the two people from before?" Chen Lu asked everyone to stop and turn the cart backwards. Three high-intensity flashlights shone straight back.
"What do you want to do by following us?" Su Keke asked coldly.
"I don't mean anything else. I just want to borrow a cart from you. My brother can't carry it anymore!"
The man had a light hanging on his head, and he looked at the cart beside Su Keke and the others with some ill intention.
"Sorry, we don't have any extra trolleys and we have patients right here too!"
Su Keke ignored him after she finished speaking. Chen Lu was afraid that something might happen, so she quickly asked everyone to push the cart away.
When the man saw Su Keke and the others were about to leave, he stopped pretending and ran over directly, revealing a sharp fruit knife in his hand.
"I don't ask for much. Just give me a cart. I'm sure you can take turns carrying that skinny woman. If you know what's best for you, give me the cart!"
The man pointed a fruit knife at Chen Lu, meaning for her to give him the cart.
"You are trying to rob us! Don't think we are afraid of you just because you have a knife!" Wanying poked her head out from behind Chen Lu and shouted to the man in front of her.
"Oh! You are quite arrogant, little girl! I am already giving you face by not asking for two wheelbarrows. If you are so ungrateful, then I will ask for two, and I will take your wheelbarrow too!"
After being confronted by Wanying, the man immediately changed his target of threat and pointed the knife at Wanying's white neck.
"We are willing to give it to you. Can you put down the knife first? Just as we said before, can we give you a wheelbarrow?"
Chen Lu didn't want to make a big fuss, as it would be bad for them. The man had a knife and was strong, so the women would definitely suffer. At worst, she could just carry Chen Shuang on her back, since they were almost at the hospital anyway.
"Sister Lu! I can't give it to you! If you have the guts, kill me. I see if you dare!" Wanying was actually quite brave at this time. Even with a shiny fruit knife against her neck, she still dared to confront this tall and strong man.
"I really don't have time to talk nonsense with you guys, get out of my way!"
He really didn't dare to cut Wanying's neck with a knife, but it would be a problem for him to steal a few carts in the fog.
The man pushed Chen Lu and Wanying away, grabbed Chen Lu's cart with one hand, and was about to carry Chen Shuang who was lying inside out, when he was suddenly kicked in the shoulder by Su Keke.
"Ah..." The man cried out in pain and took two steps back with the fruit knife in his hand.
"Don't touch our things, or I'll cut off one of your arms first!"
Su Keke dragged the cart over and blocked Chen Lu and Wanying behind her.
"Su Keke! You are awesome! I will admire you from now on!" Wanying gave Su Keke a thumbs up from behind.
"Su Keke, be careful, he has a knife! If all else fails, we can just give him the cart!"
Chen Lu looked worried. How could a little girl beat a 1.8-meter-tall muscular man? It was obvious that this man had trained hard.
"Oh God! Please don't let anything happen!" Leah nervously made the sign of the cross on her chest again.
Although Grandma Qiao didn't understand what was said, she could tell from the gestures that Leah was praying to their God again.
"Don't be afraid, this muscular man is no match for Coco." Grandma Qiao said proudly from behind.
"Really?"
Seeing how calm Grandma Qiao was, Chen Lu suddenly felt more confident. It seemed that Su Keke and the other person were indeed not simple people. She had made the right decision to ask them for help, otherwise they would be in danger today.
