Chapter 261 They are going to the imperial capital
The women were trembling with fear. Lu Xingtang called out to Su Cheng and the others to come and take the children away to comfort them. As for those who were not fit to be mothers, Lu Xingtang tied them up and prevented them from leaving.
After locking the doors and windows, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo returned to the large earthen kang. Seeing the four chubby, fair-skinned children already coaxed to sleep, she said, "These four children..." If the soldier Duan Boyu hadn't been there, she could have taken out the milk powder from the space and fed it to the children, but Duan Boyu was there...
Teacher Cao said, "These four children are pretty much the same. The oldest has already started teething, and the youngest is only three months old. We should make some rice porridge for them every day!"
Rice soup? Lu Xingtang agreed on the surface, but she took the opportunity to let the children drink some milk powder, which was better than rice soup. When they arrived in the imperial capital, these four children would be the key to their entry into the imperial capital orphanage. It would be their chance to find Xie Zhenchuan after entering the imperial capital orphanage. Lu Xingtang would not treat them badly. If they survived, it would be a good thing for Country H.
As for their mother, let them survive for the time being, maybe they can even drink breast milk.
With more than thirty people taking care of four children at the same time, the room finally had a homely atmosphere. Everyone silently savored this hard-earned homely atmosphere and treated the four children better and better.
The sandstorm stayed in Liwa Village for seven days. Lu Xingtang and his friends had food and drink and lived a very stable life. After the seventh day, a heavy rain suppressed the sandstorm. Lu Xingtang and his friends no longer had to eat dirt, which made them very happy.
After the heavy rain stopped, Su Cheng and the others started to get busy. Lu Xingtang said that they didn't have enough supplies, as all the people in Liwa Village were gone. They collected supplies from every household and brought them to the farmhouse. After Duan Boyu's injury healed and he left, they would leave too.
It took three days to transfer all the supplies of the entire village to the farmhouse. Lu Xingtang also secretly collected a lot of firewood, wood, grain and other furniture into the space.
But when they saw the cellar in the village chief's house, everyone's faces turned unhappy: "It was such a quick death for the village chief!"
The cellar was filled with a lot of food, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, wheat, soybeans, and green beans, which took up the entire cellar. After storing them, Lu Xingtang estimated that all the food added up to about five tons. The village chief had hoarded five tons of food. The entire Liwa Village's grain reserves were less than 50,000 tons. It was conceivable how many tricks this village chief had behind the scenes.
In addition to grain, there was also a lot of meat. Seeing the meat, Lu Xingtang gritted his teeth and said, "Let's cremate it!" The poor two-legged sheep was slaughtered by the two-legged beasts and made into bacon.
After collecting all the supplies in Liwa Village, they returned to the farmhouse and sorted the supplies.
Duan Boyu's injuries were recovering, and he became good friends with Su Cheng and the others, but he still had a mission to complete, so he planned to leave Liwa Village and return to the army before his injuries were completely healed.
Lu Xingtang and the others did not stop Duan Boyu. Every night, they felt bad watching Duan Boyu secretly crying while holding his teammates' clothes. Returning to the army was like taking a reassurance, at least they would not be so sad.
Lu Xingtang and his companions found a tricycle in the village and wanted to bring some food for Duan Boyu to eat on the road, but Duan Boyu refused, only asking them to make rice balls for three days and pancakes for half a month. He did not want any other supplies.
Lu Xingtang and the others made rice balls and pancakes for Duan Boyu, but the portions were quite large. They also filled his water bottle and took out the pistols and bullets they had collected from Liwa Village. "We don't know which ones are yours, so find them and take them all. You can take the rest if you want. We have guns and bullets!"
Duan Boyu's eyes were red. He silently found the guns, bullets, and water bottles of him and his comrades. Lu Xingtang asked Su Cheng to take the water bottles, wash them, and refill them with clean water.
Duan Boyu's supplies were all packed into the backpack that Lu Xingtang had given him. It was a worn-out, but sturdy and useful backpack. Duan Boyu put the backpack on his back and saluted Lu Xingtang and the others. Su Cheng returned the salute, and Lu Xingtang and the others saluted. "Take care, everyone. I hope to see you again one day!"
"Take care of yourself too. We are planning to go to Lancheng. If there is a chance in the future, we will definitely meet again!" Lu Xingtang said.
Duan Boyu thanked them for their free help, perhaps it was just because of his identity as a soldier. No matter what, he kept this kindness in his heart.
Watching Duan Boyu leave, Lu Xingtang and the others felt mixed emotions. Su Cheng suddenly sighed helplessly, "His injuries haven't healed yet. If he encounters a biped on the way back..."
"I put a special medicine in my bag and specifically told him to take one pill a day." Unless there is a natural disaster or something unexpected, Duan Boyu will be fine.
As soon as Duan Boyu left, Lu Xingtang and the others looked at the farmhouse and asked, "Shall we leave?"
"Let's go!" They are going to the imperial capital!
Since we are leaving, we should immediately put all the supplies from the farm house into the space, leaving nothing behind.
Seeing the tied-up women, Lu Xingtang ruthlessly killed them. Leaving them behind might cause trouble, as they were bipedal creatures after all. They could take care of the four children themselves. There was milk powder and clothes in the space, so nothing would happen to the children.
Except for Lu Xingtang, the girls in their team and three senior teachers all followed into the space to take care of the four children.
After putting some supplies in the truck, Lu Xingtang took out the offline map, determined the route, and drove away.
Five days later, they left Ji Province and entered Yang Province. Lu Xingtang wanted to go to the imperial capital as soon as possible, so Ji Yanmo used his supernatural powers to avoid dealing with the survivors. They took a detour to leave Yang Province and entered HB Province, where they saw many survivors.
However, they were all survivors who had already lived in HB Province. When they saw Lu Xingtang and his men driving a truck, their eyes widened and some even jumped up to see if there were any supplies in the car. But when they jumped up, they saw only black gun barrels, each of them holding a gun with a ferocious look, which scared them to death.
Because they had guns, no one dared to block their way, unlike the people in Liwa Village. However, they also saw many bipeds, so Lu Xingtang asked Ji Yanmo to deal with them secretly.
The existence of bipeds is a threat to ordinary people.
Finally, in the early morning of June 20, their vehicle entered the imperial capital.
After entering the imperial capital, there were more and more potholes on the road, making it impossible to drive normally. Ji Yanmo used his supernatural powers to explore and found that all the nearby roads were destroyed. If he wanted to enter the imperial capital, he could only walk.
So everyone gave up the truck and put it into the space. Lu Xingtang gave each person a bag containing some rice balls, a bottle of mineral water, and a few tattered clothes. As for the children.
Lu Xingtang originally wanted to throw the children into the space and take care of them consciously, but the four children started crying and making a fuss after entering the space. Lu Xingtang had no choice but to carry them out: "My good classmates, I wanted to reduce your burden, but they refused to accept it and started crying and making a fuss as soon as they entered. I really have no choice but to ask everyone to take care of them together!"
