182. Chapter 182: Overnight in the Forest



Su Mibao frowned. She had so many supplies in her space that it would be enough to support the officials and prisoners if she took out some of them. But she didn't want to be a savior.

[Brother, I will give you food and salt, can you ask those officials to give us some benefits? ]

Su Zhenbei's handsome face was hidden under his bamboo hat. "Don't worry, we need to take back our autonomy little by little."

"Zhenbei, can you think of a way to stop me from wearing shackles and chains?"

Su Chengyi was panting.

"I've only been free of the shackles for one day, and I feel like my body is new again, much lighter."

Song Jinhe looked at her silly man speechlessly, "Husband, you feel lighter, it's not because of the shackles. You just lost some weight."

The Su family all looked at Su Chengyi. It had only been a few days, but the second master's round, greasy face was actually not so round anymore, and his face had turned darker. Although his external injuries had not yet fully healed, he was still in good spirits.

"Ma'am, you've lost weight too."

Su Chengyi turned around and looked at Madam Su again, "Mom, you've lost weight too."

"As long as our family is well and together, none of this matters. Once we can safely reach the place of exile, we will be able to live our lives again as a family with one mind."

Old Madam Su feels much more at ease now than when her house was first raided.

[Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let you lose any weight. ]

Sumibao quickly took food from the space for everyone. At this time, everyone was crowded on the mountain, and Sumibao only took out chocolate and candy.

Su Mibao was held in Song Jinhe's arms. She was wearing a baby jumpsuit bought from the supermarket, which was wrapped in a small mattress. Her arms were exposed. With a move of her hands, all these things appeared in Song Jinhe's arms.

Song Jinhe stuffed the thing into the hands of Su Sinan beside her and gave him a wink.

Su Sinan immediately twisted his fat body and flexibly got close to the Su family, stuffing a chocolate and a candy into each of their hands.

"Everyone needs to be careful after entering the mountains. Our whole family must stay together."

Su Zhenbei explained to everyone.

"Seventh Aunt is holding my younger sister on the horse, and Fourth Brother Jinchuan is sitting behind her."

“I won’t ride a horse, Zhenbei, you are seriously injured, you ride a horse.”

Ye Ranqing was unwilling.

"Zhenbei, your body——"

Madam Su looked at her eldest grandson with worry. He was too badly injured. Although the nail had been taken out, how could he walk with such a serious injury? Her daughter-in-law couldn't do it either. She was more than six months pregnant and there were signs of miscarriage.

Su Zhenbei nodded, and Madam Su held Ye Ranqing's hand.

"Qing'er, be obedient. Go ride your horse. You have to think about the baby in your belly. The road is slippery due to heavy rain, and there are puddles and traps everywhere in the mountains. If you slip again..."

Old Madam Su didn't dare to say any more.

"mother--"

Before Ye Ranqing could say anything, Mi Baobao's babyish voice rang in his ears, "Aunt Qi, hold me and ride the horse. My eldest brother said he's fine, so he'll be fine. You ride first today, and I'll find a chance to give you an injection later. After two more days, the baby can be saved."

Thinking of her dead husband and the posthumous child in her belly, Ye Ranqing nodded with red eyes.

She was a girl born in a mountain bandit family. Since she married into the mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo, her mother-in-law had never treated her harshly, and none of her sisters-in-law looked down on her. Ye Ranqing felt indescribable warmth and sadness in her heart.

"Old Three, Old Five, Su An, you all need to find an adult to follow you. Madam is weak and Madam Su is injured, so they also need someone to take care of them."

Su Zhenbei nodded, and glanced at everyone again, his expression serious.

"Once we enter the mountains, whether we encounter wild beasts or natural or man-made disasters, we must not panic. We must focus on the horses and stay together. We must not be separated."

"Let's go, everyone, get up, hurry up, and follow."

As the officers shouted, the crowd began to move again.

This time everyone escaped a giant earthworm. They were grateful for having saved their lives, but also felt confused as they were penniless, had little food and water, and had no idea of ​​their future after entering the mountains.

The whole team was in a very depressed mood the whole day. They stumbled and trudged through the mountains all day.

By the evening, the group had completely entered the depths of the forest. The vegetation and trees here were lush and the rain was easing.

"Stop, let's camp here tonight."

When they reached a flat valley, the officers shouted at everyone to stop and set up camp.

After all, walking in the jungle after dark is very dangerous.

"Go and look for a cave nearby that can be inhabited. It would be best if it's a bigger cave."

Zhou Fuan was in a low mood and sat down on a rock. He twisted his foot and it hurt a lot. He was thinking about Chu Mingyang again. Chu Mingyang said he would wait for him in Yueyang Town. They entered the mountain and turned a big corner to Yangcheng, bypassing Yueyang Town. I don't know what the damage was like in Yueyang Town.

Zhou Fuan sighed inwardly, if something happened to Chu Mingyang, he would have no way to explain to the Right Prime Minister.

[Brother, I can find a cave nearby. Should we go? ]

Finally, it was time to rest. Although she was held by Aunt Qi, being on horseback was not as comfortable as being on the bed.

Su Mibao was eager to find a more secret place to get some food for everyone and change clothes. It had been soaking wet all day. Even wearing a raincoat was not enough.

"We are prisoners, and the officers will not let us leave alone. Unless we are close."

Su Zhenbei frowned. They were exiled prisoners, so the officials had to watch them. But this was a deep mountain, and it was hard to keep hundreds of people safe. The dozen or so people in the Su family were old, weak, sick, and disabled, so the officials naturally didn't worry about them escaping. Even if they ran away, they wouldn't survive in the mountains.

But they will not be kind enough to let them leave alone.

[Three. There are three caves in front of the left. Two big and one small. Our family can live in the small one.]

"Three caves? We have five or six hundred people here."

[The largest cave can accommodate 500 people, the other one can accommodate 200 to 300 people, and the other one is very small and can only accommodate 10 to 20 people.]

The caves that Sumibao mentioned were all discovered by the rabbit using his mental power.

"I'm going to find the official. Come on, son."

Su Chengyi patted Su Sinan's fat head and said to everyone with a smile, "We will go to the officials and tell them that we have found a big cave for them that can accommodate hundreds of people. We will live in a small cave, and the officials will make a lot of money."

The Su family watched as the two community bulls walked away arm in arm, twisting their fat bodies.

"Sir, we found the cave."

Zhou Fuan was worried after listening to the reports from his subordinates.

The official said that the imperial guards had found a cave that could hold fifty or sixty people, and started arguing with Zhao Wei. At this time, he suddenly saw two fat prisoners, one big and one small, coming over, grinning at him like a bodhisattva.
