Chapter 80 Gu Family Father and Son
Upon hearing this, the official Qin Laoer quickly drew his sword and stood in front of the refugees.
An Lei, An Twenty-Four and Pei Shaoming also came out.
Pei Shaoming was also pushing Pei Shaoling, who was sitting in a wooden wheelchair.
Seeing that Qin Lao Er was about to be unable to withstand the crowd of refugees, Pei Shaoling gave a look and An Lei and An Twenty-four also hurried forward.
"All of you stop it! The girl is right. We have hands and feet, we can find food for ourselves. Why are we stealing other people's food? All of you stop it!"
A middle-aged man's voice came from the back of the crowd, loud and powerful.
"Gu Changsheng, if you don't want to fight, just stand aside and shut up! We're kind enough to let you and your son join us on this journey to escape the famine, not to stop us from surviving!"
The woman just now pointed at the man and cursed him arrogantly.
Then she went on to deceive the crowd, "Fellow villagers, these soldiers are rich and unkind, and they forced us to leave our homes. Let's rob them all today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the refugees pushed even harder.
Qiao Qiqi had a cold look on her face. She brought the food into the kitchen and then put it into the space.
Including the pots, pans, rice, flour and other things she had placed outside as a cover, all were put in.
If the refugees really squeeze in, they won’t be able to find anything to eat.
Seeing Qiao Qiqi taking away all the food, the refugees became even more excited.
They pushed the people in front of them desperately, not afraid of Qin Laoer's sword at all.
Pei Shaoling's eyes turned cold, and he gently raised his right hand that was holding the wooden wheelchair!
Suddenly, a scream came from the crowd!
The arrogant woman just now now had a bloody hole in her throat.
The blood was gushing out, staining the coarse cloth on her chest red.
The refugees were immediately frightened by the scene and they retreated to the side.
He was still shouting, "Murder! The officers and soldiers are killing people!"
Then they turned into birds and beasts and scattered.
Suddenly, the farmyard became empty.
No, there are still two people left.
It was the man named Gu Changsheng who had just offered help.
He was carrying a boy of about seven or eight years old on his back.
At this moment, the boy's face had an abnormal blush, and his arms and head were wrapped in white cloth.
It was obvious that he had fallen into a coma.
The official Qin Laoer took a look at the dead body of the woman on the ground, then looked at An Lei and others, and went to deal with the body without saying a word.
When Qiao Qiqi heard the noise, she came out of the kitchen. When she saw the refugees leaving, she brought out the food again.
Gu Changsheng looked at the food on the table and swallowed unconsciously.
Then he turned to Qiao Qiqi and said, "Miss, my child was injured in the earthquake. I don't ask for food, but I hope you can give me some water."
Qiao Qiqi looked at the little boy on his back who was about the same age as Pei Shuer and nodded lightly.
She returned to the kitchen, took out a bowl, and poured a bowl of water from the water bag.
Then he brought it out and handed it to Gu Changsheng.
"Thank you, girl. Thank you, girl!"
Gu Changsheng's face was filled with excitement as he expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
He gently placed the child on his back on the ground, fed him half a bowl of water, and drank the rest himself.
Afterwards, he thanked Qiao Qiqi again and left with the boy on his back.
Qiao Qiqi glanced at his back without saying anything, then turned around and moved the dishes into the kitchen.
At this time, Pei's mother also came out with Pei Shuer.
Everyone waited until Qin Lao Er finished dealing with the corpse and then started eating.
"If we continue our journey for two more days, we will be able to reach Ganliang County the day after tomorrow."
During the meal, Qin Lao Er, the official, said softly, "I think we don't have much rice and flour left. We need to go to the supply point."
"Ganliang County?"
Pei Shaoling frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Qiao Qiqi saw that Pei Shaoling had a strange expression and asked softly.
"fine."
Pei Shaoling shook his head, picked up a piece of crispy fish with chopsticks and put it into Qiao Qiqi's bowl, and continued to eat the rice in the bowl.
"Ganliang County is a nice name, but I wonder if there's a water shortage there. I haven't seen any rivers on the road these past few days."
An Lei said in a muffled voice.
"Yes, as we head north, the rivers become fewer and fewer. And with this weather, the few water sources have almost dried up, right?"
Qin Lao Er, the official, was speechless. "I don't know what's going on this year. There are floods in the south, and the north is so bad. There are even earthquakes near the capital."
Qiao Qiqi didn't say anything.
She knew that these things might be related to her traveling through the book.
But she couldn't say these.
After dinner, everyone found a place to rest.
When it was almost dark, Qiao Qiqi cooked another meal.
After eating, we continued on our way.
There were two lanterns hanging in front of the carriage, specifically to illuminate the front.
"Not far ahead is the legendary Line of Sky. After crossing it, we will enter the territory of the Gansu-Liangshan Line."
Qin Laoer, who was sitting on the carriage and driving the horse, said to An Lei, who was driving the carriage.
And An Twenty-Four followed behind, leading the donkey.
Qiao Qiqi sat in the carriage, looking at the towering mountains surrounding the official road.
At this moment, Pei Shaoling was emitting cold air all over his body, bringing a touch of coolness to the hot weather.
"What's wrong?"
Qiao Qiqi approached Pei Shaoling and whispered in his ear.
"This narrow gap in the sky is where they pushed me down."
Pei Shaoling clenched his fists and whispered in Qiao Qiqi's ear.
I see!
Qiao Qiqi held his clenched fist distressedly and whispered in his ear, "That was all in the past. We are all fine now, aren't we?"
Pei Shaoling nodded slightly upon hearing this, and his body began to slowly relax.
Suddenly, a man appeared in front of the carriage!
An Lei, the driver, quickly grabbed the reins to prevent him from being stepped on.
Qiao Qiqi, who was sitting in the carriage, was talking in a low voice with Pei Shaoling.
She accidentally kissed his thin lips.
Qiao Qiqi: ...
Pei Shaoling took the opportunity to peck him lightly, then stepped back with his handsome face and asked An Lei, who was driving the carriage in front.
"What's going on?"
"It seems to be the man who asked for water that we met today. He blocked our car."
An Lei replied in a low voice, then shouted loudly, "What's going on? Get out of the way!"
"Everyone, don't go any further. They've set up an ambush at the narrow pass. They're waiting for you to go there, so they can push down a huge rock and crush you to death. That way, they can get your horses and your food."
Gu Changsheng stopped in front of the carriage and said to An Lei and the others.
"What?"
The official Qin Lao Er was shocked. "These unruly people are so bold!"
Qiao Qiqi, who was sitting in the carriage, also frowned slightly.
Pei Shaoling whispered to An Lei through the car curtain, "Go and solve it!"
Then, An Lei's figure flew out and flew towards the narrow gap in the sky.
"How did you find out?"
Qin Laoer took a look at An Lei leaving and knew what was going on.
He asked Gu Changsheng in front of him.
