Ever since their master's secret investigation into the flood in Xuzhou was exposed, they had been away from the capital for half a month and had committed no less than fifteen robberies and murders, large and small, which could be said to be almost one every day.
I don’t know why the people behind this are so arrogant. The killers are getting more and more powerful, and they are completely targeting the master’s life.
But no one knows what the master is thinking. He refuses to call out the people in secret. Just him, Mo Bai, and the master, no matter how powerful they are, they can't withstand so many people.
Pei Yu was wearing a black robe, with two deep wounds on his chest that were visible to the bone. One of them was almost healed, and the other was injured today.
"No, let's go to Jingzhou instead."
Jingzhou? Why go there?
However, as a qualified subordinate, he would not ask this question.
"yes."
"Mo Bai, make some arrangements. Before entering Jingzhou, we must deal with all the tails that are following us. Don't delay the rest of the process."
"yes."
A man in black suddenly appeared in front of Pei Yu, bowed and then quickly disappeared.
Pei Yu gathered his clothes and rode away from the bamboo forest full of corpses with Tianqing on horseback.
…
"Ali, look over there!"
Chen Li looked over and saw a city in the direction that the third brother pointed, with dense crowds of refugees at the city gate.
With so many refugees crowded outside, it seemed that Fourth Grandpa’s plan to go into the city to buy medicine had failed.
Everyone looked towards the city not far away and saw the situation at the city gate.
The hilltop where they were now could clearly see the situation at the city gate. The refugees in the distance were like little ants, crowded together waiting at the city gate.
Shen Zhenyuan had a bitter face. It seemed that they had to get around this place as soon as possible.
With so many refugees gathered together, riots will break out sooner or later, and their small number of people cannot withstand the turmoil.
"Everyone speed up and take a detour to the official road over there to rest."
The team quickened their pace and began to hurry on their way, passing by the refugees scattered nearby. Although the city looked close, it was actually still quite far away.
The group did not reach the outskirts of the city until noon, and were forced to stop to rest at a dilapidated temple five miles outside the city.
There were already refugees in the dilapidated temple, so the team stopped to rest not far from the temple.
"Rest for half an hour before setting off again."
When everyone heard this, they quickly set up a pot to boil water and cook rice, and then took a rest after eating.
Lin Cuicui put the rice she scooped out back and took out a small bag of fried noodles instead. Since time is tight, she might as well eat this.
The Lu siblings had already lit the fire. Lin Cuicui boiled a pot of water, saving half for drinking in the afternoon and the other half to eat with fried noodles later.
Chen Li was eating the fried noodles in the bowl. She put a little sugar in it, and it tasted a little sweet, which was okay.
It's okay to eat it occasionally, as it doesn't have any oil or water. But if you eat it every day, even if it's food, it will make you look pale and thin.
When we were about to set off, everyone carefully poured water into the water bags. Since we found the water source in the woods last time, the surroundings became even more desolate after we came out of the mountain. Even green trees were rarely seen, and most of them were withered and yellow.
Unexpectedly, the situation in Jingzhou is even more serious than that in Yizhou. They have to save water again and again, otherwise they won’t be able to hold out for long without water.
Just as Shen Li and the others were about to set off, they heard chaotic screams coming from the city gate.
"Dad, big brother, big uncle, hurry up, let's go."
They were not far from the city gate. If the refugees ran over, they would soon meet them and a conflict would definitely occur.
"Dongdongdong~"
Shen Zhenyuan took the gong and struck it loudly, then got on the ox cart and left. The people from Sanli Village behind him hurried to catch up.
Not only their team, but also the refugees and migrant workers resting nearby all rushed towards the official road, and the team was in disarray.
Chen Li rode on the horse, "Hurry, keep up."
Their family was running in the front. Their horses and mules ran faster than cows and faster than the refugees.
At this moment, the whole family was crowded on the mule cart, with Chen Li and Shen Yuanzhou riding horses and leading the way.
The mule seemed to sense its master's urgency and started running away.
Lin Hu hurriedly drove the ox cart to catch up, Lin Kun and Lin Feng pushed the cart together, the two old men sat on the ox cart, and the rest of the people followed below.
Xu You reacted quickly, whipping the cow with a whip in his hand, and managed to run ahead.
As they ran, the noise from behind them quieted down a bit, but the agonizing screams could still be heard.
The Shen family's mule cart was at the front, not far from the team, and was still within everyone's sight.
In the carriage, Xu Taohua's face was pale. Lin Cuicui was supporting her and placing two quilts behind and beside her to prevent her from getting bumped.
In the carriage, Lu Jing held his sister in his arms, his back pressed tightly against the carriage, trying to reduce some of the bumps.
After running forward for a quarter of an hour, Chen Li drove the horse to stop in a wide area, and the mule cart also stopped.
After getting off the horse, he first looked around at his family members, but nothing happened.
"Mom, sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Chen Li lifted the car curtain and saw her sister-in-law's pale face. "Mom, where are the pregnancy-preserving pills I bought earlier? Hurry up and take them out and give them to my sister-in-law."
"well."
Lin Cuicui hurriedly started searching, and the Lu siblings quickly jumped out of the car.
Shen Jingyuan also came over, his face full of anxiety, "Taohua, how do you feel?"
Lin Cuicui had already found it. She took a pill and the water bag and brought them to Xu Taohua's mouth. "Taohua, come here, take it and lie down to rest for a while."
Xu Taohua did have some stomach pain at the moment, but she didn't dare to be careless. After taking the medicine, she leaned on the bedding to rest.
"Mom, Ayuan, little sister, I'm fine."
Lin Cuicui had already gotten off the car. Shen Jingyuan got into the carriage and went to fan his wife with a fan.
At this moment, scattered figures appeared on the official road behind me. After waiting for a cup of tea, my grandfather's family and Xu Youcai caught up in a ox cart, followed by the village chief's family.
"Mom and Dad, are you okay?"
As soon as the ox cart stopped, Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui came forward to ask.
Lin Biao waved his hand with full energy, "Don't worry, Cuicui, your mother and I are in good health, nothing's wrong!"
Lin Kun and the others had already sat down on the ground. After this run, their faces and necks were covered in sweat, and their clothes were wet.
They stopped here, and when the people of Sanli Village saw them, they would come over to gather.
Over there, the old Shen family reacted a little slowly. Both sides of the ox cart were filled with refugees, and the people from the mountain village could no longer be seen.
He hurriedly drove the ox cart to catch up, not noticing that someone was trying to take advantage of the situation at this time.
“What are you doing!”
Shen Jiaojiao shouted softly, and the refugee with dark skin and tattered clothes did not stop and continued to reach out to a sack at the end of the cart.
After succeeding, he quickly disappeared into the crowd with the sack in his arms.
Shen Jiaojiao held a piece of firewood in her hand and waved it at the person who stretched out his hand from behind. Her face was extremely ugly. This person was too greedy!
