Grandpa Su quickly hid himself, and the refugees were naturally not allowed to enter when they arrived at the city gate.
They were sitting not far away, and then waves of refugees gathered, more and more.
Soon, a man came out of the city.
"If there are men between 15 and 50, please sign up for the army. At least you can have enough to eat."
The man repeated his words several times, gave some instructions to the guards at the city gate, and then left.
Among the refugees, they all looked dark and hunched over, and there didn't seem to be many young and middle-aged people.
The refugees gathered very quickly, and every once in a while there would be a large wave of people.
Grandpa Su felt that there must be a lot of young and strong men here. At least there are many people who can join the army, but they are all hiding.
Seeing that it was getting late, Grandpa Su quietly left, reunited with everyone, and then rushed back to the camp.
When the villagers learned that the refugees had actually reached the provincial capital, they became nervous.
Especially those who still have relatives in Taohua Village are very worried.
The village chief also gave the order for everyone to pack up quickly and continue on their way.
The faster you go, the safer you are!
While on the road, Grandpa Su and Su Dashan slept in the carriage.
Su Nanxing drove the horse-drawn carriage, Grandma Su drove the donkey cart, and Su Mu had to push the cart.
Fortunately, we walked slowly, and Su Nanxing was leading the horse in front, so I felt confident.
Otherwise, with his driving skills, he really wouldn't dare to drive on this mountain road.
At first, Su Nanxing volunteered to push the cart, and everyone in the Su family looked at him and laughed.
Xiao Zhuzi said that Brother Nanxing definitely couldn't lift it.
Su Nanxing didn't believe it, so she tried it and it worked, but only a little bit.
Grandma Su laughed twice, went over to pull Su Nanxing away, and started pushing very easily.
Even without the carriage, Grandma Su could still walk a few steps. "Don't worry, Nanxing, it's easy with the carriage pulling us."
Su Nanxing smiled awkwardly twice, then immediately went to the front to lead the horse.
Walking in the moonlight, Su Nanxing vowed that if he drank more spiritual water and exercised more, he would be able to lift it up in the future!
In the middle of the night, we left the city.
Su Nanxing didn't know that it was the village chief in front who muttered something, and he happened to hear it.
The village chief stood there, looking behind him.
When Su Nanxing passed by him, he felt that he was a middle-aged man with an inexplicable vicissitudes of life.
The village chief did not continue his journey until the last person from Taohua Village arrived.
Late at night in the provincial capital, the refugees outside the city were already ready to move.
The city is guarded by walls and cannot be rushed in, but the surrounding villages do not have tall walls.
It wouldn't be a problem if they robbed the village, and the government wouldn't be able to hold them accountable.
He hid in the crowd, and who knew which refugee had stolen it.
There were also bold refugees who set their sights on the county town and the provincial capital.
After all, good things are found in these cities.
The calm lake surface is surging with undercurrents.
A single stone can break the peace.
After dawn, the people of Taohua Village finally reached the forest covered by leaves.
After walking for a long time into the mountains, the village chief finally allowed them to open fire.
Everyone quickly lit a fire and cooked porridge, and at the same time went around to see if there were any wild vegetables.
The Su family took out a big iron pot, and Su Nanxing asked Grandma Su what she was going to cook.
Grandma Su took out a lot of things and said she wanted to make multi-grain porridge.
Su Nanxing also helped to light the fire and wash the vegetables, while Aunt Qiuju and the villagers went to look for wild vegetables.
Sumu and Xiaozhuzi are preparing bedding.
Grandpa Su and Su Dashan went to discuss something with the village chief.
The whole family is busy in an orderly manner.
While Su Nanxing was lighting the fire, he quietly put spiritual water into the pot.
These past few days, everyone in the family has been looking a little down.
But one drop of spiritual spring water a day is really too little.
The multi-grain porridge made by Grandma Su was so delicious that Su Nanxing was craving it.
This multi-grain porridge contains various vegetables, shredded meat, and the wild vegetables brought by Aunt Qiuju.
In short, there is nothing special, just a variety of ingredients, and the only seasoning is salt.
But the ones made by Grandma Su are very, very delicious!
Su Nanxing felt that it was a pity that Grandma Su was not a chef.
Grandma Su was so happy to be praised by her grandson. "Then when we settle down in the south, I will start selling food."
Su Nanxing agreed wholeheartedly, "There will definitely be a lot of people lining up to eat there!"
Grandma Su said yes repeatedly, and felt more motivated to cook.
When Grandpa Su and Su Dashan came back, the meal was ready.
Everyone sat together, and Grandma Su gave each person two big pancakes.
Su Nanxing took a bite of cake and a mouthful of porridge, feeling very satisfied.
After dinner, Grandpa Su briefly talked about what the village chief had just said.
First of all, I no longer have to travel day and night.
The vegetation in the mountains ahead is dense, so there is no need to worry about being discovered.
You can see more clearly and travel faster during the day.
Traveling at night is really too slow.
Secondly, the next destination is Jiangqing County in Qiushi Prefecture.
Let’s all try our best and arrive within ten days.
I hope that by then I can go into the city to buy food.
The further south you go, the more rain there is. I hope Jiangqing County will not be short of water.
The last thing is that the water brought by many people in the village is almost used up.
So from now on, when we take a break, each family will have to send one person out to look for water.
~
After walking for another two days, half of the people in the village had no water.
The Su family's water, although Su Nanxing cheated from time to time and added water into it.
But he didn't dare to be too obvious, so he didn't say much.
If we can't find any water, we will...
