Chapter 162 Muratie Falls into a Coma
Ning Bao shook her head.
"Auntie, you're too kind. We're all from the same village, and it's impossible for us to ignore each other when we run into each other."
"How are you, Huixin? Are you alright? Don't be sad, the bad guy has already been trampled to death by my Lingling."
Still shaken, Lin Huixin calmed herself down.
"Thank you, Ningbao, I'm fine."
Don't worry, it was just a couple of touches from an animal. I won't kill myself over it. If any man rejects me because of this in the future, it's because he has no taste.
Although Ning Bao didn't quite understand what Lin Huixin meant, she still nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Sister Huixin is right. Throw away all men who have no taste."
At this moment, Mu Chunping, Mu Cheng'an, and others also came over, and they quickly dealt with the two men who had just run away.
Ning Bao and the others were going to find Mu Laidi and Mu Chengrong, so they couldn't leave Lin Huixin and her daughter here and decided to take them with them.
Following the compass's directions, Ning Bao ran frantically toward the location of Mu Chengrong and his sister.

Meanwhile, Mu Chengrong, whom Ning Bao and the others were worried about, was anxiously watching Mu Laidi, who had started to talk nonsense.
He didn't know why, but his third sister's wound became red and oozing pus not long after she was injured.
Moreover, Mu Laidi developed a high fever. Mu Chengrong had been spoiled by his family since childhood, and although he was an eight-year-old child in a farming family, he could do many things.
But Mu Chengrong used to be waited on hand and foot at home.
Seeing the unconscious Mu Laidi, Mu Chengrong tried to take care of her like his mother, but when he tore off his sleeve to wet it and wipe Mu Laidi's forehead, there was no water.
He remembered that when he was in the field team, Ningbao taught them to recognize several kinds of herbs, one of which could relieve high fever. He hid Mulaidi in a secluded place and searched carefully in the forest for a long time before finding two herbs.
Mu Chengrong was very happy looking at the herbs in his hand, but then he became worried.
How can he brew medicine without a pot or water?
In the end, Mu Chengrong could only chew the herbs in his mouth, then spit them out and feed them to Mu Laidi.
Although he felt a little nauseous, he finally managed to get the medicine down. Mu Chengrong breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go to the side to see if he could find something to eat or drink.
He had only taken a few steps when he saw a thin, old woman reaching out her withered hand to grab Mu Laidi.
Mu Chengrong quickly ran over and slapped the old woman's hand away.
"What are you doing? Stay away from my sister!"
The old woman, having finally spotted some food, stared wide-eyed in horror.
"You little brat, are you here to steal my food?"
This little girl looks so thin and small, while you, a boy, are so sturdy. You're obviously not from the same family, yet you claim she's your sister?
I think you're planning to take it all and eat it all yourself!
"Eat?" Mu Chengrong looked at the old woman in horror.
"Are you going to eat my sister?"
"Hehehe!" The old woman let out a few terrifying laughs.
"It seems you really are this girl's younger brother. It seems you were very spoiled at home, which is why your sister starved to death."
But since they've already starved to death, let's not waste them. If you can't bear to eat them, give them to me..."
Mu Chengrong waved a wooden stick at the old woman.
"Get out of here! Don't come near my sister! My sister is still alive, you can't eat her!"
The old woman wasn't angry; she looked at Mu Chengrong very calmly.
"Kid, you've never been hungry before, have you?"
Do you know that when people are starving, there's nothing they can't eat? They'll eat anything as long as it fills their stomach.
Look around you..."
The old woman pointed to the refugees around her, whose eyes were glazed over as they stared at Mu Laidi's body.
"Look at them, they're all ready to snatch you away as their older sister."
"I think you're a good kid. Why don't you just become my grandson? That way, when this old woman dies, there'll be someone to take care of her in her old age."
Mu Chengrong shook his head without hesitation.
"No, I have a grandma, I don't want to acknowledge you as my grandma."
Get out of my way! My grandma is really something; she'll come over and yell at you until she's dead!
And our captain, our captain is incredibly good at fighting..."
The old woman frowned.
"What captain? You seem a bit dim-witted. Forget it, I was originally planning to keep you around until I finished eating your sister before eating you, but seeing how dim-witted you are, I won't bother. I'll just eat you today."
As the old woman spoke, she picked up a stone and struck Mu Chengrong on the head.
Mu Chengrong nimbly dodged the old woman's attack and picked up the stick to strike the old woman's legs.
Although Mu Chengrong was only eight years old, this little boy used all his strength, and the frail old woman was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground.
Mu Chengrong picked up the stone the old woman had dropped and smashed it hard against her head...
One! Two! Three! Four!
