The two crybabies had no choice but to stare at Xuezhu.
Everyone was exhausted after a long day. After dinner and hanging out their wet clothes, they found a place to rest. After all, they would have to go rescue people again in a few hours.
Only by maintaining their physical strength can they save more people.
This flood was a protracted battle. They had to wait until the Linnan Army arrived, until the rain stopped, and until the water receded.
There were still two little men following Xuezhu.
No matter how he hides, these two extremely persistent villains will always find him in the end.
Just like waving your hands persistently in the flood.
Xuezhu went to find Wu Weian, who bit his lip and called out, "Master."
Wu Wei'an looked at the two children huddled behind him, patted Xuezhu's shoulder, and said with a half-smile: "Our Xuezhu already has a son and a daughter at such a young age. You are better than me, young master. Not bad, not bad. Keep up the good work."
After saying that, he walked away with a smile.
Xuezhu: “…”

Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian returned to the carriage to sleep.
The rain was still pouring outside. Wu Weian held the umbrella in one hand and supported Ji Yunxi's waist with the other.
"Where is the prince?" Ji Yunxi was tired after a day of work and suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten the prince.
Wu Wei'an: "I asked Master Zhai to protect it. He should be dispatching supplies from all directions with the county magistrate."
Only then did Ji Yunxi feel relieved.
The two of them didn't walk fast.
Wu Wei'an suddenly said, "If I told you I was leaving tomorrow, would you leave?"
Ji Yunxi paused slightly: "No."
Wu Weian was so rational that he was ruthless: "Compared to the people down here, our manpower is almost negligible. They will only have hope when the Linnan Army arrives, not just relying on a few of us."
This was just their first day in Qinghe County.
Everything has just begun, and Wu Weian has a bad feeling.
Ji Yunxi said seriously: "I can't leave."
Wu Wei'an hummed, "Because of your parents? But since you already know that your parents died due to someone's manipulation, and you also know who the murderer is, there's no reason for you to stay."
If Wu Weian wanted to come and see her, she wouldn't even have to make this trip.
Ji Yunxi didn't say anything.
Wu Wei'an looked down and asked, "You want to save them?"
Ji Yunxi followed and looked over.
The waves surged below, the mournful sound of the water drowning out everything else.
The two stood under the same umbrella in the rainy night.
The cold wind brought in raindrops, it was very cold.
Ji Yunxi spoke slowly: "Yes and no."
She tilted her head and looked up at him from under the umbrella. Her eyes were particularly bright in the darkness, and there was an emotion in them that Wu Weian couldn't read: "It's not about saving them, it's about saving ourselves."
Chapter 85 Ants
The two children followed Xuezhu with great persistence.
Xuezhu had no choice but to squat down reluctantly and talk to them.
Even when Xuezhu was squatting, she squatted upright.
He really didn't understand: "Why are you following me?"
The younger sister blinked her big eyes, tears welling up in them: "Brother Xuezhu, we don't have parents anymore."
The brother held his sister's hand, bit his lips and pretended not to cry, but two lines of tears still fell from his eyes.
Xue Zhu: "I don't have any parents either."
The elder brother's eyes were filled with longing: "But Brother Xuezhu, you are very powerful."
He gestured with his hands: "It flies the highest and fastest!"
He searched for his sister on the shore for a long time and saw many brothers and sisters coming and going.
Among them, Brother Xuezhu flew the highest and fastest.
He also wanted to be as powerful as Brother Xuezhu so that he could save his sister and others in the future.
And if he were so powerful, his parents would not have been washed away by the flood.
Thinking of this, the elder brother reached out and wiped away his tears: "Brother Xuezhu, can you teach me?"
The younger sister followed suit: "Brother Xuezhu, I want to learn too!"
Oh, so you want to recognize him as your master.
In fact, the young master is his master. Xuezhu has a wish in his heart that he will only accept a disciple if he is more powerful than the young master.
But it is obvious that he is not as powerful as the young master at the moment.
So he cannot accept disciples, he does not have the qualifications and ability to do so.
It will mislead young people.
Xuezhu looked at the two children seriously and said sternly, "I can't teach you."
The brother and sister were stunned, the light in their eyes gradually disappeared. They looked somewhat similar, and their little mouths pouted as if they were about to cry.
Xue Zhu: "But you can find the young master."
Xuezhu: "He is the one who taught me."
elder brother:"!"
younger sister:"!"
Brother: "Who is the young master?"
Xuezhu: "The highest."

The next morning, everyone woke up at daybreak.
Baofu got up before dawn and ordered everyone to start burning charcoal, cooking and boiling water.
But Ji Yunxi brought only four maids with her on this trip.
Wanxiang wanted to go down and save people, so Baofu didn't call her and asked her to sleep a little longer before dawn.
The other two were already busy, but three of them still couldn't handle it.
They not only had to prepare food for the people who were going down to rescue, but also for the people in this mine.
Many people were drowned in Qinghe County, and the rain was heavy in the surrounding areas. Although the situation in other places was not as serious as in Qinghe County, they were all unable to take care of themselves.
Some capable officials are still trapped below, waiting for rescue.
The magistrate of Qinghe County was extremely short of staff and had to do the work of ten men.
Yesterday, when the county magistrate of Qinghe County saw that Ji Yunxi had taken over a series of arrangements for the victims of the mine disaster, he sent his men to other garrisons to help.
Baofu thought for a moment, put down the pot in his hand, wiped his hands on his clothes, walked to the victims, and called a few healthy people to come and help.
