Chapter 8 Others cover themselves with grass while I cover myself with a blanket
In the dark night, dozens of people with knives chased a man.
Before Xie Yanyan could react, the person being chased flew past her like lightning and bumped into her by chance.
The force was so great that Xie Yanyan couldn't withstand it and fell face first into the mud.
Before I could get up, the people who were fleeing and those who were chasing me had already run far away.
The wind raised a cloud of dust, and a strong smell of blood filled my nose.
The person who hit her must have been seriously injured.
Xie Anfeng and Xie Ning were soldiers. They were more alert than Xie Yanyan. They dropped the firewood and hay they had picked up and ran towards Xie Yanyan desperately.
Li Rong also rushed over with a goose-feather knife in hand.
When she got to her, the person was gone. She only saw Xie Yanyan sitting on the ground in a daze.
"Yan'er, how are you?"
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"Are you hurt?"
Xie Yanyan fell down, but she didn't break any bones or anything. The Central Plains had more soil than rocks, so her face was covered in mud.
However, the reason why the man who was being chased bumped into her was not because he was blind or panicked, but because he stuffed something into her hand, and she was a little stunned for a moment.
It is a long roll.
Instinctively, she felt that the thing was unusual and must be very important.
Maybe it was what the group chasing him wanted to steal.
Throw it into the space first, then look back to see what it is.
Song Lingling came over with a big belly and asked what happened. Xie Xiangxiang was picking hay nearby and came over to see what was going on. She asked, "Yanyan, are you hurt?"
Xie Yanyan patted the dirt off his body and said, "Brother, I found the quilt."
"What?" She asked suddenly. Xie Anfeng and Xie Ning were both stunned for a moment. "Blanket?"
Xie Yanyan showed them the rolled sleeping bag, but did not let go because she was afraid that Li Rong would leave.
Xie Anfeng also thought of this. It was a blessing for Yan'er to pick up the quilt, and she couldn't let the bailiff snatch it away.
So he tucked the rolled sleeping bag under his armpit and said calmly, "It's good that you're not hurt. Get ready for bed."
The few of them returned to the land temple. Xie Yanyan deliberately chose a place farther away from everyone else and spread three sleeping bags on the hay.
He opened one and gave it to his eldest brother and his family of three, saying, "Ah Sheng is young and can't stand it, and my sister-in-law is in a bad condition, so you guys go to sleep first."
Xie Ning took his wife and children and got into the sleeping bags as Xie Yanyan said. While coaxing his son to sleep, he was thinking in his heart.
[This quilt is like a sleeve, with a windproof collar and hood, very suitable for current use]
[Soft and warm, without the stench of animal skins]
[My sister obviously doesn’t want others to know, we must cooperate]
"Husband, my sister is our lucky star... otherwise Asheng and I would not be able to bear it," Song Lingling said to Xie Ning in a low voice, choking with sobs.
Xie Ning said nothing and put his arms around his wife.
Can’t say much, no one else has it either, so they can’t be too cocky.
Xie Ning and Song Lingling's inner thoughts fell into Xie Yanyan's mind word for word, and she was immediately satisfied. This is what a smart teammate should be like.
Xie Yanyan opened another one and called Xie Anfeng, Xie Yong and Xie Lingyu to squeeze in: "Although it's a bit crowded, it's good for keeping out the cold. Let's make do with it."
The last one, she slept with Jiang Shuang.
No matter how much I hate Jiang Shuang, I can't just watch her die.
However, Xie Yanyan warned her: "I was almost killed by a villain. Don't think about taking care of anyone after picking up these thin quilts. If anyone dares to take my quilt, I will dig up his ancestral grave."
Jiang Shuang fell asleep in silence.
After sleeping in it, she found that although this tube-like quilt was thin, it was very soft and warm.
"Yan'er, your grandparents didn't..."
"Shut up." Xie Yanyan growled and turned her back to her. If Jiang Shuang dared to say another word, she would kick Jiang Shuang out.
Jiang Shuang didn't dare to say a word.
"Second brother, what are you building?"
The old lady saw that the whole family had gone to bed. She picked up the quilt but didn't tell them to give it to the old couple or Xie Anhuai. She immediately got angry and asked, "Your father and your eldest brother are still sick, and you guys just slept by yourselves?"
Although Xie Jinrong and Xie Anhuai slept in the carriage, there was no quilt in the carriage. It was chilly in spring and their teeth were chattering with cold.
Xie Anfeng took the straw felt that he had been assigned and used it to cover Xie Jinrong.
Xie Jinrong said angrily: "Give me the quilt you picked up, do you want to freeze me to death?"
"It's gone." Xie Anfeng turned and left. He was filial, but he knew in his heart that the quilt might have a complicated origin, and he couldn't embarrass his daughter.
No matter how Xie Jinrong and the old lady scolded him, Xie Anfeng ignored them.
Liu Mingjie shouted, "What are you arguing about?"
The old lady and Xie Jinrong were afraid of being whipped, so they kept their mouths shut.
Xie Xiangxiang and Xiao Shen were huddled under a straw mat, shivering with cold. She glanced towards Xie Yanyan several times.
[Everything is so weird. Xie Yanyan should have been hanged long ago, so why is he still alive? ]
[Not only alive, but also completely different]
Xie Yanyan: It’s already like this, and you’re still thinking about others?
In the cold wind of the spring night, the convicts, tired after a day's work, fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, the old lady suddenly shouted hurriedly: "Second brother, second brother."
Xie Anfeng asked: "What's the matter?"
"Your father has a high fever!"
Xie Anfeng went over and touched it, and found that Xie Jinrong's forehead was indeed very hot.
Everyone woke up in shock. Liu Mingjie asked unhappily, "What happened?"
"My father has a high fever." Xie Anfeng said, "Sir, can I take my father to the town ahead to find a doctor?"
Li Rong was also woken up and said to Liu Mingjie, "You should go with me. The sooner you go, the sooner you can return."
Liu Mingjie was so angry that he could not help himself, but he could not just watch the prisoner die of illness.
Xie Anfeng wanted to drive a horse-drawn carriage to the town to see Xie Jinrong, and asked the old lady to get off the carriage, but the old lady refused and asked Xie Anfeng to carry Xie Jinrong to find a doctor.
Xie Anfeng picked her up and threw her to the ground, and then threw Xie Anhuai to the ground as well.
The old lady cursed: "You unfilial thing, you threw us on the ground, did you want to freeze us to death?"
Xie Anfeng said fiercely: "If you delay my father's medical treatment, I will kill the boss, do you believe it?"
The old lady was so frightened that she choked and immediately said, "Your elder brother has a fever too. Take him to the doctor as well."
"No! If you want to heal him, do it yourself, or ask his children to heal him."
Xie Yanyan woke up, looked at him coldly, and closed his eyes again.
Browsed the space.
There is a wide passage in the middle, with neatly arranged warehouses on both sides. There are supermarkets, granaries, and shopping malls in the previous life, as well as gold, silver, jewelry, weapons and antiques, grain supplies, medical supplements, etc. confiscated from the Huangfu family, Cheng'en Marquis Mansion, Xi Wang Mansion, and Wuyi Marquis Mansion in this life, all of which are neatly arranged and classified.
There are really a lot of things.
She would never be able to finish all that food in her lifetime.
The space is filled with not only a variety of daily necessities, but also cars of all sizes, shared bicycles, and other brands throughout the entire parking lot of the shopping mall.
No wonder the space is upgraded one after another.
After looking around, she went back to look at the scroll that she had thrown in at night.
This is a parchment scroll, very soft, probably dug out from the ground. It is a bit old, gray and covered with dust.
He untied the somewhat rotten binding string on the parchment scroll and slowly unfolded it.
It is a picture, about the size of a handkerchief.
No, it was a fragment of a picture, but the scenery in the picture was vaguely discernible: there was a full moon hanging in the sky, the lake was sparkling under the moonlight, and there was a faint road in the water, leading to the opposite bank towards the moonlight.
A sentence was written above the parchment: Green Forest and White Sand Dike in the East of the Lake.
There are clear signs of cutting on the left edge of the parchment scroll.
So, it is a map that was cut out artificially?
Could it be a treasure map?
