"No way, no way. This is a water unicorn. The god of water. This one is a purebred. Did you kidnap the young master of the water?" Li Jinglei said babble.
"What do you mean I kidnapped him? He clearly came to me on his own. Okay. I'll just help his mother take care of him for a while. Don't bully him." Sang Jin said, then cut off contact with the secret realm. Li Laoshi was a talkative person.
Li Jingyu thought she had put Bai Ling into her interspatial ring again, just like before. Interspatial rings that could hold living things were truly rare. The Hongmeng Sword Immortal truly possessed a wealth of wealth.
After storing all the buckets and basins into the space, Sang Jin and Li Jingyu flew back to the Zhoujia Village team.
"Xiao Jin, where did you go just now? You asked for so many empty buckets. Those are all the empty buckets in the village." Sang Mu asked curiously. It couldn't be that you went somewhere else to fetch water.
"I asked Master Lu to take me to fetch water. You see, it's full. Dad, please collect the water first. It will be enough for everyone to use for a while." Sang Jin put all the water in front of Sang Mu as if he was presenting a treasure.
Sang Mu quickly used his space ring to collect it. So much water would take up too much space. "This child is always so worry-free."
The others also saw the water Sang Jin brought back and were immediately delighted. Their village's little lucky star was different. It seemed no difficulty could faze her.
As they emerged from the woods, the view opened up to a vast expanse of bare rock forest. Stones were everywhere. Not a single tree was visible, let alone water. Underfoot were small gravels and sand. And ahead of them was a group of people.
They were so hungry that they were just skin and bones. No one knew which direction they came from. They must have taken a different route than the people from Zhoujia Village.
At this time, some people in the group also saw people from Zhoujia Village. They also saw two carriages and horses. In their eyes, they seemed to see food.
Sang Jin secretly thought that this was not good, fearing that her mother would suddenly be kind enough to give them some food.
"Dad, tell grandpa and the others to squeeze onto the carriage. We'll rush past the refugees first. Tell everyone in the village to be quiet and head south quickly, past that crowd. I'll need you to set up a protective shield for everyone later." Sang Jin finally felt relieved after arranging everything. She held her mother's hand.
Sang Mu, a daughter slave, got his daughter's words and quickly informed everyone.
"Little sister, why do we have to rush through the refugee pile so quickly?" Sang Yu was puzzled.
"Brother, our horses are food to them. People who have been hungry for a long time will do anything when they see food. Don't talk to them, just leave quickly." Sang Jin said.
"I see. This is to prevent us from getting hurt. You're amazing, little sister. You know all this." Sang Yu gave her a thumbs-up. This was a gesture that little sister had taught him. This gesture meant to praise someone for being amazing.
The path through the stone forest was narrow. If they wanted to get there quickly, they had to go through the crowd in front of them.
Li Jingyu erected a protective shield, and the entire Sang family crammed into and outside the carriage. The dozen or so children followed the Sang family's carriage. The villagers also obediently prepared. Adults watched the children, preventing them from running around.
"Let's go!" Father Sang shouted, and everyone moved forward at full speed.
Some in the crowd ahead were so hungry they'd lost their minds and charged straight at them, while others restrained themselves from crossing their human boundaries.
There were quite a few people from Zhoujia Village, marching forward in a mighty and orderly manner. They also had a protective shield. The group couldn't get close to them at all.
Suddenly, someone called out through the protective shield: "Xiao Ni, Mom is here. My Xiao Ni."
A three-year-old girl next to the Sang family walked out of the protective shield happily.
"Mom, I finally see you. It was that little sister who saved me. And the other children in the village."
Although Sang Jin was sitting in the carriage, she heard the conversation between the mother and son clearly. She had no choice but to wade into this muddy water.
She stepped out of the carriage and said to Sang Mu and Zi Shufen, "Mom, Dad, you guys go ahead and don't worry about me."
"Kid, what are you doing? Come back quickly, why did you jump off the carriage?" Sang Jin had said that it was dangerous to stop, and Sang Mu and the others had heard it. They knew that Sang Jin was going to take a risk.
"Dad, I saved these children, so let me be a good person and see them off to the end. Many of them are their parents in the crowd. I will take them to their own relatives. It's better than having them follow us. I'm fine, Dad."
Sang Mu knew that Sang Jin was a sensible person. But he was still worried, so he asked Sang's father to come and help drive the carriage, and he accompanied his daughter to take the children home.
"Any of you who are willing to return to your parents can do the same as the little girl just now. Go out and look for your parents. Those who are willing to follow the Sang family can follow the Sang family." Sang Jin gave them a choice.
The Zhoujia Village team continued to move forward, not stopping because of this little incident. Sang Jin and Sang Mu led the fifteen children out of the protective shield separately.
"I want to stay." The first one who wanted to stay was Mu Xuan.
"I want to stay, too."
"I'm going to find my mother."
“…”
Ten children wanted to go look for their relatives. Three wanted Sang Jin to take their relatives with them to the Sang family. Only two children, who had no one to rely on, wanted to follow the Sang family to Munan Prefecture.
But Sang Jin ultimately did not agree to let their relatives go with the Sang family.
Every time Sang Jin successfully helped a child find their family, she would secretly give them a bag of rice (about one pound) and a bucket of water.
Of course, the buckets were their own, not from Sang Jin's space. She didn't have that many buckets to give away. Any container that could hold water would do.
"Eat quietly, or cook and eat away from people. Otherwise, the food may not be preserved." Sang Jin reminded kindly.
There were too many refugees for her to save. She could only protect the people around her first.
After sending the remaining thirteen children off, only Mu Xuan and a girl named Doudou stayed with Sang Mu. He held one of them by the hand.
Soon they were surrounded by a small group of people.
"Please ask Miss Sang to take us in. We are willing to sell ourselves into slavery. As long as we are given food, it will be fine."
Sang Jin looked up and saw that they were all the dozen or so households she had secretly delivered food and water to. There were probably fifty or sixty people in total.
Sang Jin frowned. She couldn't just come all the way to send the child home and then bring dozens of people back to the village. If her grandmother knew about this, would she jump up and beat her...
