After walking all night, everyone was exhausted and fell asleep.
Although Tang Youyou was very tired, she couldn't sleep and was extremely anxious. She didn't see any disaster victims along the way. It was really strange. Could it be that everyone had gone into the mountains?
His eyes couldn't help but look towards the mountains, and suddenly he noticed a few faint lights.
"That...that's a torch?"
Looking at the direction, it's coming this way.
He sat up with a start, shaking everyone.
"Get up! The bandits are coming!"
Everyone was suddenly awakened and their first reaction was to grab their weapons.
"Go!"
Tang Youyou looked at the food on the ox cart and reluctantly spent five hundred taels to upgrade the space to ten cubic meters!
Secretly put half of the things into the space.
Like throwing carrots, he threw all the children into the ox cart one by one and patted the ox's butt.
The cow mooed and rushed out.
Turning around, he saw everyone still packing up their things and yelled, "It's more important to escape, leave everything behind, and leave!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, without even a moment to sigh, and ran at full speed with their weapons in hand.
While no one was paying attention, Tang Youyou collected some bedding and sheets and chased after the ox cart.
A quarter of an hour later, the bandits looked at the objects in the woods and cursed.
"Damn it, let them get away?"
"Don't worry, the monk may escape, but the temple cannot!"
"Should we continue chasing?"
"Chase? Are you stupid? We have a big outpost up ahead. We'll just wait here!"
"Whoosh!" A flare streaked across the sky.
Tang Youyou looked back, her face horrified. It was a signal flare. Could there be bandits ahead?
Make a prompt decision: "Stop!"
But the cow seemed to be frightened and was completely out of control, running in front.
"Cow...children..." Tang's mother shouted.
Everyone followed the ox cart, but after a day and night of travel, they were exhausted and had no chance of catching up with the animals.
Suddenly we discovered that there were many torches ahead, and everyone became extremely anxious.
Tang Youyou was like an ant on a hot pan. She closed her eyes, calmed her mind, took out her slingshot, and aimed at the cow's hind legs.
With a "whoosh" sound, the cow let out a wail and fell to its knees on the ground, struggling. The children, along with food, buckets and other items, all fell out.
"Run!" Tang Youyou just shouted.
The children didn't have time to rub their legs, they got up and ran towards the back.
"Boss, it's a group of cubs! Should we chase them?"
The second-in-command touched his chin, a sly smile curling up at the corner of his mouth: "Why not let them run for a while first, and when they get hope, we can catch them all in one fell swoop, wouldn't that be more interesting? Hahaha..."
Tang Youyou looked at the little radish heads running over, breathed a sigh of relief, and made a quick decision: "Go into the mountains!"
There were quite a few torches ahead, at least more than fifty people. These were bandits who killed people without blinking an eye, and they were not the same as the victims. She couldn't guarantee that she could wipe them out in one fell swoop, so she couldn't take the risk.
When everyone heard this, they each picked up a child and headed deep into the forest.
She looked at the bandits who were not chasing her, and rushed forward like a cheetah to collect supplies.
"Huh? What is this guy doing there?"
"How silly! Did she think we'd let her go? She looked like she was scratching for food!"
Tang Youyou pretended to dig for it, then tried to wave his hand. With a thought, all the things fell into the space, and then he ran away with the bucket!
The children here hugged the adults' necks tightly, buried their heads low, and dared not make a sound.
The adults were breathing heavily and their pace gradually slowed down.
Seeing this, Tang Youyou became anxious. She put down the bucket and started pulling up trees. That's right, she wanted to create some obstacles for the bandits and try to buy time for everyone.
Everyone heard the noise behind them but did not turn around.
"Auntie is pulling out trees!" Niuniu lay on Old Man Tang's shoulder and helped everyone solve the problem.
"Faster...faster!" Old man Tang's face flushed red, and he had only one thought in his mind: run, run fast.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone arrived at the foot of the mountain. There were two forks in the road, and they didn't know which way to go. They had to put the children down. They fell to the ground, gasping for breath, unable to utter a word.
Seeing Tang Youyou carrying a large cloth bag, he breathed a sigh of relief.
She put down the cloth bag and pointed to the left: "Go this way!"
I walked to the right, scattered some food, and then started pulling up trees to create obstacles on the right.
Seeing this, everyone headed to the left, but they were too tired and moved as slowly as a snail.
Seeing this, she sighed and had no choice but to set up the same obstacle on the left, but without scattering the food.
He picked up the cloth bag and caught up with the others: "Let's find a place to rest!"
If this goes on, I will be exhausted to death even if I am not caught by the bandits.
After walking for about quarter of an hour, she could no longer climb, so she took out a bucket, bought some water at the mall, poured it into the bucket, and distributed it to everyone.
Everyone opened their eyes wide, took the water and drank it all.
He took some more wolf meat and distributed it to everyone: "Eat quickly, don't talk, and go to sleep after eating!"
Everyone looked as if they were about to be caught, biting the meat fiercely, thinking that this might be their last meal, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Tang's mother wiped her tears and whispered, "Youyou, go, take the children with you, as long as one survives!"
She patted Tang's mother's hand and said, "Mother, have you forgotten? I am the one chosen by the gods. How could I let you die so easily? Don't think about it. Go to sleep!"
She was betting that the bandits were self-righteous and smart and would definitely go to the right.
He touched his aching legs and sighed: Even someone as strong as an ox can't stand it without rest!
