The safest place07
Tianyi held Moore's body with one hand, supported Mu Hong's hand with the other hand, and stood up shakily.
Then he took two steps.
Click...
Tianyi, who was holding More, had no expression on his face and banged his head on the ground because he couldn't balance his body well.
“Puff…”
Wenxiu, who was also standing by, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When Tianyi cast his "innocent and harmless" gaze at her, Wenxiu quickly restrained her facial expression and praised him a few words.
"My brother is awesome!"
Tianyi, who doesn’t think he’s that great: “…”
Mu Hong picked up Tianyi's small body and put it straight.
"Do you still want to continue practicing?" Mu Hong asked with a smile in her eyes.
Tianyi looked up at his mother, stretched out a hand and grabbed the finger that Muhong handed to him, and started practicing "standing and walking" again.
Tianyi has been practicing walking for several days.
After Mu Hong left the county town with a few children, she was still looking for a "safe" place.
But in this "blocked" "plague" area, is there really a so-called "safe" place?
Mu Hong didn't know.
She just kept walking forward with the children.
Be very careful along the way, not daring to make even a single wrong step.
Of course, she also met other living people who wanted to go to the county town.
After communicating with each other, Mu Hong told people about the situation in the county, but most people didn't believe it.
They still stubbornly walked towards the county town.
Mu Hong didn't persuade her any further.
Of course she knew that those people might not really disbelieve it.
Everyone is just too desperate.
In addition to these, Mu Hong has also met some more unique people.
Those people lived in their original places, unwilling to leave even though there were monsters all around them.
There were also people who dug holes in the ground to "survive" and wait for the "plague" to pass.
"As long as the plague is over and we are still alive, we should be considered cured, right?"
Mu Hong once heard someone say this.
"Would you like to live with us too?"
"More people means more survival."
Those people invited Mu Hong in this way.
Mu Hong refused.
Mu Hong didn't think that she could really live well if she stayed where she was.
Having more people means more power, but it also requires more consumption.
What's more, those monsters are not stationary.
Mu Hong continued walking with the children.
Then we met a team that was put together from further away places.
"We are going to go to the west to have a look."
"I heard there's a chance to survive there."
"What chance of survival?" Mu Hong asked the people in the team.
"We don't know either, but that's what everyone says."
"It's better than staying where you are, right?"
"And if we all come together and cooperate with each other, we can barely survive."
"Would you like to come with us? At least go and take a look."
Mu Hong joined the team that was heading west to look for a chance to survive.
They came from different villages, some from far away places.
After communicating with these people, Mu Hong realized that the "blocked" "plague" area was even wider than he had imagined.
Because there are people in this team who are specifically sent out to investigate, information flows quickly.
This team is also aware of the situation in the county.
Tianyi is Muhong, and after he followed the team, he started practicing walking.
A baby who has just been born wants to practice walking and can actually stand steadily and take a few steps.
No matter where you look at it, it is a very shocking and unreasonable thing.
However, after Mu Hong discovered that Tianyi wanted to walk, she did not show such emotion, but instead watched over Tianyi.
To prevent Tianyi from getting injured while practicing walking, or being discovered by someone with ulterior motives.
Fortunately, Tianyi is well-behaved and won’t make any big noise.
After walking like this for a few days, the strength in my arms and legs became stronger day by day.
"Were my brother and I the same as my younger brother before?"
Tianyi was finally tired from walking, and when he began to yawn while being held in Muhong's arms, Wenxiu gently touched Tianyi's elastic cheek and asked.
Mu Hong nodded, then shook her head.
Thinking of Wenxiu and Tianchuan when they were younger, Mu Hong couldn't help but smile.
Wenxiu and Tianchuan were naturally cute when they were babies.
But it’s still different from Tianyi.
No other baby is the same as Tianyi.
Tianyi is special.
Wenxiu did not ask any further questions. She just squatted in front of the sleepy Tianyi and hummed a song softly.
Wenxiu's voice is clear and tender. The syllables of the song she hums are simple, but it sounds very pleasant.
Tianyi, who was feeling sleepy, soon fell asleep hugging Moore's body.
After Tianyi fell asleep, Mu Hong placed Tianyi in a small basket covered with many pieces of cloth.
This small basket is now Tianyi's bed.
After telling Wenxiu to take good care of her brother, Mu Hong rolled up her sleeves and called Tianchuan to leave.
She was planning to take Tianchuan out to find some edible wild vegetables.
The dry food given by the wild beasts had long been eaten, and most of the food had to be found by themselves.
The nearby areas have been explored by the team, so there shouldn't be any danger.
Mu Hong and Tian Chuan, each carrying a basket they had woven themselves, saw the other people in the team after walking only a few steps.
There aren't many people in this team, just over a hundred.
But with so many people gathered together, it doesn't seem like a small number.
Moreover, compared with other people Mu Hong had met, the people in this team did not seem to be so desperate.
At this time, everyone is busy doing their own things.
Some were weaving baskets, some were sharpening knives, some were gesticulating with long sticks, and some were gathered together talking about nothing.
There are also groups of three or five that gather together and wander around nearby.
Mu Hong and Tianchuan had just walked a short distance when someone greeted her.
After asking Mu Hong what she was going to do, she called out and followed him, carrying the basket on her back.
This is the main reason why Mu Hong chose to follow this team.
It's not just because there are so many people and they can help each other, or because information flows quickly within the team.
Also, most of the people in this team are not completely desperate.
The incident of the Jingguan in front of the county town gate had a serious impact on too many people.
Many people who live far away from the county town are filled with despair.
This kind of despair will not only make them do things that they would never do under normal circumstances, disregarding morals, humanity and laws, but will also make them... turn into monsters.
People can turn into monsters when they are in extreme emotional states.
Many people know this.
There are not many people who can truly control their emotions and prevent their thoughts from going astray in such a situation.
But the team in front of me looks pretty good.
Mu Hong didn't know whether there was any chance of survival in the west.
But following such a team...
Could her children get some rest too?
The children are really well behaved.
Whether it is Tianyi who was born not long ago, or Wenxiu and Tianchuan.
The journey is tiring enough even for adults, let alone children?
But Wenxiu and Tianchuan both gritted their teeth and persevered.
Whenever Mu Hong asked, even if the two children were so tired that their faces turned pale, they would just shake their heads and say, "Mom, we are not tired."
The children said they were not tired, but Mu Hong didn't really think they were not tired.
My shoes are worn out and my soles are bleeding. Aren’t you tired?
But Mu Hong had no choice but to hug them and continue thinking...
Where is safe?
…
Where is safe?
Tianyi's action of opening his eyes was very abrupt.
He sat up in the cradle.
The action of getting up woke up Wenxiu, who was watching over him and also fell asleep.
"Brother?" Wenxiu blinked and touched Tianyi, "Brother, don't you want to sleep?"
Tianyi ignored Wenxiu and climbed out of the basket.
Although he hasn't mastered walking yet, Tianyi is very skilled at crawling.
Even if the rim is a little high, it's not a problem for him.
It was just that Tianyi was unwilling to let go of More's body in his arms, which caused More's body to be squeezed more than once during the climbing process.
If an ordinary baby was treated like this, he would probably be half dead.
But Mor's body is ultimately just a body without a soul.
So More would not resist.
When Wenxiu saw this, she just helped, making it easier for Tianyi to get out.
Unlike Mu Hong who always worries about Tianyi.
As Tianyi's sister, Wenxiu has a strange sense of trust in Tianyi.
Of course, the premise of this trust is that Tianyi will not freeze, starve, get cold, or get hurt.
So while helping Tianyi get out of the basket, Wenxiu also tidied up the small clothes Tianyi was wearing to make sure there was no problem.
Tianyi: "..."
Tianyi stood up and walked towards the small package not far away, and then...
He dragged a dagger out of the package.
The dagger, which was not big for an adult, seemed a little big in Tianyi's hand.
But Tianyi held it very steadily.
This is something that Mu Hong would never let Tianyi touch, but now Tianyi is holding it in his hand, and Wenxiu is just full of confusion.
"Brother, why do you want to take this thing? Mother will be angry if she sees it."
Tianyi glanced at Wenxiu, then turned his gaze to another place.
Wenxiu followed Tianyi's gaze and saw an extremely skinny figure standing facing a tree trunk.
The figure exuded the smell of decay and death that could only be found in monsters.
This figure appeared at some point.
Wenxiu didn't notice anything until Tianyi looked over.
The moment she saw the figure, Wenxiu felt as if her feet were glued to the ground. She opened her mouth but could not make any sound, and even breathing became difficult.
And all these senses continued to intensify as the figure turned around.
"...Brother." Wenxiu, with cold sweat dripping down her forehead, reached out to Tianyi with all her strength.
She wanted to hold Tianyi in her arms and run away.
But now she felt that she was losing the strength to even stretch out her hand.
My body feels so heavy...
However, Tianyi, who had been a little unsteady when practicing walking, now stood very steadily.
He didn't move, just stood there.
Then he waited for the figure to turn around and move closer to him... closer...
Just as the figure finally took stiff steps, walked up to Tianyi, and stretched out his withered claw-like hand towards Tianyi.
Tianyi, holding the dagger in his hand, finally raised his hand.
Everything that was happening before her eyes seemed strange and natural to Wenxiu.
Weird and different from common sense, both Tianyi and the monster itself.
Naturally, it was the action at the moment when Tianyi swung the dagger in his hand.
It was a natural move that didn't seem to have a very strong attack power, but the monster suddenly...
Fell to the ground.
