Chapter 120 Never Give Up
Yun Lanyue smiled and raised an eyebrow, "It has nothing to do with me."
She just kicked the man into the ditch. What does it have to do with her if the leper dies?
Too.
Xiaoxue thought that Xingxing was just like her. Apart from having some medical skills, she was essentially a weak woman.
They were lucky to escape this time.
She felt her left foot, which didn't hurt much, and sighed again, thank goodness it was Xingxing who carried her out.
Otherwise, someone like her would definitely be abandoned halfway.
The two continued to walk through the mountains and forests. The only good thing was that the trees were covered with dense leaves, which blocked out some of the sunlight.
Yun Lanyue picked a big leaf and used it as a fan.
If she didn't feel the urgency of being chased, she would have wanted to slowly enjoy the scenery.
On the way, they picked fruits to eat, relying on the fruits to replenish energy and water. They walked in the mountains for two days and two nights.
Early in the morning of the third day, Xiaoxue ran along the path, stood in a place with a wide view, and pointed excitedly below.
"Look, stars! It's a town! I finally see a town!"
On the way, they encountered several villages, but out of safety concerns, they never took the initiative to approach them.
We have been walking for such a long time. If there was no one to accompany me, I am afraid I would not have been able to make it.
Now that they finally saw hope, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They were on the mountain and the town looked quite close, but if they took a detour, it would probably take another five or six hours to walk there.
At this moment, the two of them had hope in their hearts and did not find the mountain road difficult to walk on.
Xiaoxue sighed, "No wonder everyone wants to leave the mountains. The conditions inside are too harsh."
Yun Lanyue was pushing the weeds on the roadside with a thin stick in her hand and sneered when she heard this:
"I don't know about other places, but the people in Dahua Village are not poor. How can a family that can easily afford to buy a wife for half a million yuan have such difficult conditions?"
Xiaoxue thought about it and realized that she was also the daughter-in-law that Liu Quan's family spent 400,000 yuan to buy.
Life in the village is hard, but there are many assets.
"Do you know what jobs the young and middle-aged people in the village do to earn money?"
Hearing Yun Lanyue's question, Xiaoxue frowned and shook her head: "I don't know, Liu Quan spends most of his time at work and only comes back occasionally on vacation.
Many young people in the village have gone out to work, but I have no idea what kind of work they do or how much they earn.”
The people in the village tried to hide it, so there was nothing they could do even if they wanted to know.
Xiaoxue has been in the village for five years, but she has not yet gained the full trust of her in-laws.
The only thing she knew was that she was having a bad time.
“They have money, why do they live like that?”
This is also what Yun Lanyue is confused about, but the mystery will be solved soon.
She looked at the town in the distance and said this in her heart.
After walking for about two hours, Yun Lanyue held Xiaoxue's hand.
"Wait a moment."
The two of them found a patch of grass and squatted down. The lush grass completely covered their figures.
"Don't talk."
She squinted her eyes and looked outside. Not far away, she saw five mountain people passing by together.
They must have gone to the town to buy some things before taking them home, as everyone's backpack was filled with things.
"Have you heard? Three days ago, the people of Dahua Village were tricked by two little girls. They were poisoned during a banquet, but luckily no one died."
"Two young girls? From outside, right? Where did they get the medicine?"
"I don't know. The head of Dahua Village called the village chief and said that if he saw them, he would keep them here no matter what."
"They haven't been caught yet. I think it's hopeless. They might even call the police."
"What's wrong with calling the police? The head of Dahua Village has connections with the police. If they go to the police, they'll be arrested."
The sound of their conversation drifted in on the wind, with a dialect accent, and she could only half understand it.
On the other hand, Xiaoxue had lived here for five years and understood most of it.
Her face was pale and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
After the people walked away, Yun Lanyue's tense body completely relaxed.
"It seems we're heading in the right direction. Xiaoxue, do you understand what they're saying?"
Xiaoxue nodded. "Everyone in Dahua Village is fine. The village chief called the people in other villages on the mountain and told them we escaped, asking them to be careful. Also, there's someone the village chief knows at the police station."
In other words, there is collusion between Dahua Village and the police station.
If they call the police, they will be walking into a trap and it will be useless.
Xiaoxue lost her strength. "We went through so much trouble to get to this town, but the police here don't do anything. Where else can we go?"
She suddenly felt lost. She ran out with great effort, only to realize that it was useless.
How could she bear the pain of being killed and having her heart broken?
Yun Lanyue glanced at her and said, "If it doesn't work in the town, let's go to the county. I don't believe that no one can control them."
She appeared calm on the surface, but was actually very disappointed.
But it is impossible to give up, this opportunity to escape is hard-won.
She extended her hand towards Xiaoxue, "Are you willing to believe me?"
Xiaoxue shook it firmly and nodded firmly: "I do."
Never give up halfway!
The two looked at each other, gave each other enough courage, and set off down the mountain again.
