Seeing this, Tang's mother threw the remaining cloth to him and said, "Just make do with it!"
Doctor Xiong was stunned and then cried even louder.
"Oh! Damn God, please open your eyes and take a look." Old man Tang sighed to the sky.
Tang Youyou sat down on the ground with tears in her eyes. Damn it, how come escaping is harder than going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures?
"My destiny is in my own hands!" She stood up suddenly and shouted, pointing to the sky.
Everyone was crying, but suddenly fell silent.
Butcher Zhang wiped his nose and said, "Yes! I will fight against the heavens!"
Xu Da rudely slapped him on the head: "What are you fighting for? Go kill a pig..."
Only then did everyone realize that there were two wild boars lying next to them.
Lin Huahua gave a thumbs up: "Mom is really awesome, we can finally fill our stomachs!"
Tang Youyou touched his nose and said, "Don't cry, crying won't solve any problems. I have a few things to tell you right now. You can't eat these wild vegetables anymore, and we have to speed up and get out of the mountain."
Bai Ruoyi was confused: "Why can't I eat it?"
Tang Youyou's gaze fell on Doctor Xiong, who continued, "Yes, Sister Tang is right. If these things are crawled over or bitten by rats, they will probably be poisonous. We must avoid them!"
"Then can we not eat these animals?" Bai Ruyi asked a soul-searching question.
Everyone was extremely shocked and looked at Doctor Xiong.
He looked worried and said, "If these animals eat gnawed wild vegetables or are bitten by rats, they will be poisonous!"
Butcher Zhang stood up and pointed at the sky and roared: "Damn God, you are so unfair. Is it so difficult for us farmers to survive? Wuuwuwu..."
This time, Xu Da didn't hit him. He lowered his head and sobbed softly.
The atmosphere was very depressing and even the children were crying.
Mother Tang's body trembled, and Tang Youyou hurriedly helped her sit down, stuffed the medicine into her, and forced the water bag into her mouth.
After a moment, Tang's mother's voice broke over and over again: "Everything will work itself out when the time comes. Don't blame others. We're not just doing this for ourselves, but for the children as well. They're just buds, and haven't tasted the bitterness or sweetness of life yet. Even if it means death, we'll get them out safely."
Tang Youyou couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "Mom is right. After arriving in Wumu, there are still three hundred miles to the border of Nanzhou. After going through so many hardships, don't you have confidence?"
Doctor Xiong responded, "Although this fire is heartbreaking and has claimed so many lives, it has effectively contained the spread of the poison in the short term. We must seize the moment and escape!"
So everyone lifted the wild boar and walked forward, ready to look for water.
Tang Youyou carried Tang's mother on her back and rushed to the front.
"Why are you running so fast, kid?"
"Mom, have you forgotten that it's a drought right now? Where can we get water? Don't we have to cheat?"
Tang's mother's eyes lit up and she looked behind her: "It's OK. They probably won't be here for tea time."
Tang Youyou put her down and handed her a peach: "Mom, please finish eating quickly, don't get caught."
Tang's mother was shocked. She took the peach and sat on a huge rock, staring at the people behind her.
Tang Youyou poured the purified water she bought directly into the pit, then put out two buckets and took out the water bag, making a "clang clang clang" sound to show off.
"Drink slowly, kid!" Tang's mother handed over the peach she was reluctant to eat.
Her nose felt sore and tears fell uncontrollably: "Mom, you eat, I have plenty!"
He forced the peach into her mouth again: "It's stained with your saliva. No one can eat it now."
Tang's mother ate the peach in a few bites. She turned around and was shocked to see the shimmering water in the pit.
"This...this is too terrifying."
Tang Youyou's mouth twitched. It was dry down there, and any extra water that went down would be wasted. But what else could he do? He put down two more bags of food and an iron pot.
"Mom, I'm going to faint for a while while watching your performance." He leaned against a huge rock and pretended to fall asleep.
Tang's mother was speechless for a moment, complaining in her heart: This child really gave me the important task of telling lies. Fortunately, it was half dark now, so I won't be discovered when I tell a lie and blush, right?
"Heavenly Bodhisattva!" she screamed and knelt on the ground.
When the people behind heard the scream, their hearts skipped a beat and they quickened their pace.
Tang's mother was seen kowtowing, muttering to herself, "Thank you, Guanyin Bodhisattva, thank you, Bodhisattva..."
Old Man Tang looked at his daughter who had fainted beside him, then looked at his wife who was behaving strangely, and slapped his thigh: "It's over, he's been possessed!"
But he was met with a cold stare from Tang's mother: "Please don't blame me, Bodhisattva. This old man is so outspoken and didn't mean it..."
Old Man Tang: You still say you're not possessed? You call me old man? You don't even recognize me?
Tang's mother stood up and looked at him: "You old fool, stop talking nonsense. You're offending the Buddha..."
Butcher Zhang yelled, "Oh my god..."
Yao Cuihua's first reaction was: Damn it, is she possessed too? My mother has been dead for years, so what she saw must be a ghost.
Butcher Zhang was laughing and jumping, pointing ahead: "Look... look..."
Everyone looked forward in fear, only to find that the shimmering water was nothing but water.
"Mom..." Several children surrounded Tang Youyou.
Everyone then realized that she had fainted.
"Wuwuwu... Mom, wake up..."
Tang's mother held her forehead and said, "Your mother is fine. The Bodhisattva said that she was very tired from the journey and needed a good rest."
"Old woman, did you really see the Bodhisattva?"
