The group stumbled and finally came down the mountain in the evening, bypassed the river and got on the official road.
Chi Xingyue felt weak in the knees, and the old man and his wife were exhausted. The children of the Ling family looked listless, and the adults had blank expressions on their faces.
Everyone was in a bad state, and it started to drizzle again.
What a mess the weather is, it's either dry or flooded, there's never any peace.
However, the official road was much easier to walk on than the mountain road. The exiled prisoners simply cleaned the yellow mud off the wheels and continued to move forward in the rain.
Seeing Shu Rui's flushed face, Chi Xingyue raised her hand to touch his forehead and found it was as hot as a stove.
His expression changed drastically, and he quickly took out a piece of paracetamol from the express box, dissolved it in water, and fed it to the little guy.
He walked quickly to the main house of the Ling family and found that Ling Mingyue, Ling Minghao and Ling Weiwei looked listless, so he hurriedly fed them.
Seeing this, Gu Youlian said sarcastically, "It's not like we don't have water in our main house. Do we really need an aunt like you to come over and flatter us?"
Chi Xingyue ignored her and quickly returned to the third room.
Seeing that the old man and the old lady were in good spirits, he gave the remaining medicine to Ge Jinglan.
The ability to refresh space materials is only for the owner.
Even if Chi Xingyue takes the things out, they will not be refreshed the next day as long as she doesn't use them.
No bugs to card, which means one less paracetamol tablet to use.
Unless in the future, she can refresh the pharmacy or hospital.
Chi Xingyue looked at the transparent bag with three pills missing and felt heartbroken.
Fortunately, the courier owner was a good person and bought five curtains at one time.
It's said that one curtain costs two yuan, which is not expensive. But why not buy some ibuprofen suspension or something like that? The child can drink it.
Of course, this is just something I think about. After all, it is quite unexpected to find medicines in a courier box.
Dare not be ungrateful.
After drinking the potion, the children's temperatures dropped quickly. Although they were still listless, they were able to answer their parents' questions.
The old lady looked at her granddaughter-in-law with satisfaction, and knew everything about the pills she took last night.
Looking at the seemingly endless road of exile, he didn't feel the slightest bit of fear.

On the mountain, Ling Yi and the others didn't expect that the rain would fall so heavily.
After finally avoiding the hail, we were trapped by the heavy rain.
I wanted to find a cave to shelter from the rain, but I found that there was nothing around and I couldn't find one.
Helpless, I can only meet with the master first and then make plans.
However, he found that the traces left by Ling Jiheng were washed away by the heavy rain.
A group of people panicked and hurried down the mountain. On the way, they encountered a flash flood that almost buried them.
Fortunately, several of them learned martial arts and jumped to the shore and escaped the disaster at the moment the water rushed down.
But the carriage and four horses were all swept away by the flood, and they became paupers in an instant.
The four people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
***
The group walked on the official road for more than half an hour without encountering any living creature.
In the world after the fire, Gao Hongbin could only barely identify the direction and was not sure how far they were from the post station.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the wounds on everyone's body were soaked white and wrinkled by the rain.
As for the dried meat that was blown dry and then soaked again, no one cared about it anymore.
Someone complained, "Master Gao, why don't you just rest here? It's raining so hard, don't get lost?"
Gao Hongbin disagreed: "Do you really think you can hold on after being soaked in the rain all night? Didn't you see that the elderly, the weak, the women and the children all have fevers?"
It is impossible to say that he has any affection for the exiled prisoners.
But after walking for so long, they still haven't waited for the Third Prince's men to join them. It is absolutely unacceptable to let these exiled prisoners get into trouble.
He said loudly: "Hold on a little longer. When we get to the post station, we can all take a hot bath and have a good sleep. We will recover."
After hearing this, everyone felt warm in their hearts and no longer had the initial aversion to the sword-wielding guards.
He only asked Gao Hongbin: "How long will it take?"
Gao Hongbin thought for a moment and said, "About two hours!"
In fact, he couldn't say for sure.
But with a goal, the road won't be that long.
Just like a carrot hanging in front of them, the donkeys have to run fast just to get a bite of the fresh one.
Chi Xingyue stepped into the bumpy little pond and calmly pumped out most of the rainwater and stored it in the space.
The dry vineyards were moistened, and the slightly curled leaves all stretched out.
Only then did Chi Xingyue understand that the lack of water would have a great impact on the growth of plants.
The reason why it was not revealed was probably because it was early autumn before she crossed over, and the plants did not require that much water.
After figuring it out, Chi Xingyue collected them even more happily. After all, it was dark and no one could see them.
As for how they determine the direction?
Haha, it was not until today that Chi Xingyue knew that Mr. Gao not only had oil-paper umbrellas, but also lanterns.
I don’t know what he was thinking. It rained so heavily last night and he didn’t even take it out to use it!
Gao Hongbin: “…”
I said I was stunned by the hail, do you believe it?
Actually, his wife bought it, but he had forgotten about it. He only found it when he was taking inventory of his supplies.
No matter what, the group's speed did not slow down at all.
After walking for an hour, I was told that I had only walked for a quarter of an hour.
After walking another hour, I was told that I had walked three cups of tea.
Chi Xingyue's eyes were almost rolling to the sky. He didn't expect that this ancient noble family was so cunning and actually used psychological tactics.
As for how she knew that the guy was not holding his fart, of course she could tell by looking at the unlocked land.
Each piece of land is 0.76 square meters. In just a few hours, she unlocked several greenhouses.
There were so many strawberries inside that she was drooling.
Chi Xingyue used his consciousness to turn the valve of the irrigation equipment, but found that it was useless.
Helpless, I can only continue to collect rainwater inside.

In Shangjing, the Third Prince sat in his study, looking at the news about the Guzhen forest fire sent by his subordinates, and fell into deep thought.
"Do you think Gao Hongbin and the others can escape this disaster?"
"In my humble opinion, I'm afraid it's not possible."
The retainer shook his head with regret. "The wildfire burned for two days, and even before we received the news, it wasn't put out. The flames there were so strong they could melt even gold."
"According to what you said, should I report this to my father, or..."
"Your Highness, you can't do that. The fire in Guzhen is now a good opportunity for us to hide our treasures."
The retainer lowered his voice, glanced around, and made sure no one was eavesdropping before continuing, "As the saying goes, true gold fears no fire. Even if ancient books, calligraphy and paintings are burned to ashes, gold and silver can be preserved intact.
What we need to do is to find Mr. Gao's body as soon as possible and bury him."
His eyebrows raised, and his meaning was clearly: "Hide it and use it as funds for our rebellion."
The Third Prince smiled and said, "Sir, you are kind-hearted. I will do as you say."
