Chapter 315 This is the only thing I can do to help you
"Hurry up and go. This cave leads to the back mountain. Go down along the mountain road. It won't take long before you see a fork in the road. Take the left one. Don't take the right one. Go down the left one. In six hours, you will reach the road to the farm.
If I remember correctly, it takes two days and one night to reach the farm. These are the dry food and dried meat I have saved in the past few days. I can't prepare more, so you can just go like this. The clothes on your body are your own anyway.
I can't help you with anything else, just leave now while they are asleep and don't notice you."
The old man stuffed the food into their mouths with great force.
Jiang Xiaoxiao took it out and found that it was filled with steamed buns and potatoes. In the past two days, these people had moved all the food and vegetables that were originally placed in the kitchen to their room. It was obvious that they were afraid of them, so these people stole the food when they were not paying attention.
The old man must have thought of a lot of ways to save all this.
"Old man, I still don't understand why you are helping me like this? We just met by chance. If you can escape by yourself, why don't you escape by yourself and leave these things to us?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao finally asked about her doubts, which had been bothering her for many days.
She never understood why the old man protected her. Even now, the old man let them escape on their own, but he stayed behind.
This doesn't make sense at all.
This is also what Song Moting feels.
Really afraid this is a trap.
The old man held Jiang Xiaoxiao's hand.
Song Moting resisted the urge to take action.
"Girl, I know you don't remember me. You do good deeds without leaving your name, but I remember you. Do you remember that in the county town, your bowl of wontons allowed an old beggar at the door to eat a bowl of hot wontons in the house?
I continued to work in that wonton shop, but the owner later passed away. The shop was nationalized, so I could no longer stay there. I had no choice but to end up on the streets and became a beggar.
Who knew I would be discovered by these people and taken to the mountain. Who would have thought I would meet you here?
I recognized you at first sight and have been trying to find a way for you to escape. I arranged this escape route myself, but you also know that I am an old beggar. Even if I escape, whether I can reach the farm or not is the same thing.
At least I can save my life here, and these people know that I am a beggar, so they won't do anything to me. Okay, stop talking nonsense, girls, run away quickly! Run as far as you can."
As he said this, the old man gave up his seat.
Urge them to hurry.
Jiang Xiaoxiao understood it all at once.
Suddenly I remembered the bowl of wontons that winter when my sister and brother-in-law and I went to report to the power plant.
I did one good deed every day.
A very unconscious behavior.
I really didn't expect that I would meet that old man again one day, and it was that old man who would help me.
Take a look at Song Moting.
The old man urged, "Hurry up, hurry up, it will be terrible if they find us. I have been wandering outside for many years, I know this place best. It will snow again in two days. You can take advantage of this weather to get to the farm."
Hurry up and leave! Listen to the old man, the faster you leave, the better. Don't delay any longer at this time. Delaying any longer will not help. These people are going crazy."
As he said this, he pushed the two people into the cave, and the two people climbed out of the cave.
Looking at the empty view outside, I saw that it was indeed behind the two large trees standing side by side behind the cabin.
The tree is close to the house so no one can see it.
At this time, you can't see anything around you, you can only see the snow-white mountains.
…………
It was getting light, and the old man got up and started to make a fire.
The silent old man boiled some water and took a clean bath.
The old man, whose face was originally covered with dirt, suddenly looked neat and tidy.
He knew that if he let Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting go, these people would come to deliver food and would find out sooner or later.
There will definitely be no good result waiting for him at that time, but these people will definitely not kill him, at least not for the time being, but he will definitely not be able to escape after a beating.
He has been a coward for so many years.
In the past, his children broke off relations with him and his wife divorced him. To put it bluntly, they all wanted to draw a clear line between themselves and him.
He has lived such a miserable life for so many years, and he is really fed up with it.
Let's just have a good time this time.
He didn't want to live like this anymore.
Before he died, he did something to repay the girl's kindness, and his life was worth it.
Of course he would delay it until it was absolutely necessary, as he didn't want these people to find out that Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting had already escaped.
If they could delay it a little longer, the two of them could walk a few more steps and be safer.
Someone outside is unlocking the door.
"Old Wang, hurry up and cook. Big Brother is already hungry. The shredded potatoes you made yesterday were very good. Continue frying them today. Also, ask the two of them to dig out a piece of meat from the snow and stew it for lunch today."
"Okay, I understand."
The man didn't even come in. He just put the things at the door and turned away.
Old Wang breathed a sigh of relief and started to get busy. After he finished preparing breakfast, he looked around and saw that at least another hour had passed.
Then he brought the things in.
Hu Zi glanced at Old Wang.
"Why are you alone? Where are those two? Why are they still throwing tantrums in front of me? How can they get angry just by eating my food? Ask them to come out. I want to have a good talk with them. Are you tired of living?"
Hu Zi was furious.
Old Wang hurriedly explained, "How could they do that? They went to dig the meat, and when they came back, we asked them to stew the meat and make a good meal for you gentlemen at noon."
Hu Zi's evil anger finally subsided.
"Okay, since they are so smart, let's keep them for a few more days. Now, you can go back. There is no breakfast today, and you will only have one meal a day from now on. Eat sparingly, because we don't have that much food to feed the useless people."
The old man nodded and bowed, saying that he was going out, but Ma Laosan stopped him.
"Stop, Old Wang, didn't you notice that you actually washed your face and took a shower today? You look quite clean and tidy. No, you are not like this on weekdays. What happened today?"
Obviously, Ma Laosan was more careful and he could see that something was wrong.
When he said this, others also noticed it and everyone gathered around the old man.
It is true that although the old man's clothes were dirty, his face and hair were clean.
"No, did you see those two this morning?"
Hu Zi turned around and asked his men.
"No!"
"Asshole, what are you doing? Show me right now. Those two must have run away long ago, otherwise this damn old man wouldn't do this. It looks like he wants to burn his boats and make a desperate move."
He slammed the table, and his two men were so scared that they rushed directly to the small house behind with guns in hand.
The old man knew and came anyway.
It was already bright outside and the sun was out.
The only thing he was thankful for was that he had delayed for so long. He believed that they would have gone far away by now, even if these people had discovered the hole.
I'm afraid there's no way to catch up with them.
My children, I hope you can arrive at the farm safely and live a smooth and healthy life. This is the only thing I can do to help you.
