Although Gu Xiuwu was depressed, he listened to his elder brother.
He stared at the destroyed earth hole, and couldn't help but lift the straw mat to look at the other ones.
After one night, a lot of water had accumulated in the pots, pans, and bowls used to hold water, and some were even about to overflow!
She was very happy and quickly collected all the water into the water tank, busying herself happily.
Shen Ningsi looked at this scene, and for a moment he felt that the years were peaceful and quiet.
Of course, if there is enough food.
After making the porridge, Shen Ningsi looked at An An and Kang Kang in her arms who were looking at her with their eyes wide open, wondering if there was any way to supplement the nutrition for these two children who were born not long ago.
Before she could put it into practice, four or five strong men suddenly rushed in from outside.
When Gu Xiuwu’s shout came, Shen Ningsi’s face changed.
"What's going on?"
She comforted Gu Yuner and asked her to look after her younger siblings before she went out.
In the yard, Gu Xiuwu was confronting a large group of people. Among these people, there was one person who left a deep impression on her.
Rat!
What is this shifty-looking creature doing here?
Glancing at Gu Xiuwu, who was glaring at them fiercely while holding a hatchet, Shen Ningsi said calmly, "I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place, haven't you?"
"You're right. I found out everything. It was these two boys from this family who delivered the mountain tiger to the government yesterday." Haozi's narrow eyes swept back and forth between Shen Ningsi and Gu Xiuwu, as if he was calculating something. Upon closer inspection, he saw that his left foot was slightly lame, as if he was injured.
The man standing in the front immediately widened his eyes when he heard what Haozi said. The centipede-like scars at the corners of his eyes looked even more hideous.
"Come, take away all those who dare to touch our people from Black Cloud Village!"
Seeing them all rushing over, Shen Ningsi's expression changed, and he protected Gu Yuner and others, shouting, "Don't come over! Don't touch my child!"
Even clay figures have tempers, let alone when they want to touch their own children!
Shen Ningsi grabbed a stick beside him and kept waving it, cursing angrily and angrily: "Rat! You are also from our village, and you are colluding with the people of Black Cloud Village!!"
"The people in Black Cloud Village are all very kind. If they hadn't protected us, the victims would have come here long ago. You, a woman, don't know shit!" Haozi spat and looked at the man in the lead flatteringly, saying, "Third Master, this is my sincere gift to Black Cloud Village. These children are all very tender and vulnerable. With them, can I join Black Cloud Village?"
"Hahaha! Yes, of course."
The third in command laughed heartily, patted Haozi on the shoulder, and said, "Since you have made great contributions, you will stay with me from today!" The third in command glanced at Shen Ningsi and said with satisfaction.
Shen Ningsi and others were filled with hatred, but they were no match for those strong men.
They also searched around and not only took away their only food, but also carried out half a small tank of water.
"Third boss, look, they still have a lot of good stuff!"
"This water looks really good, where does it come from?"
The third in command took a liking to the water in the tank at first sight.
"Don't touch my water!"
Gu Xiuwu's eyes turned red with anger, and he bit the arm of the strong man who was holding him.
The sturdy man wailed and kicked Gu Xiuwu angrily with such force that he was kicked nearly three meters away. When he collapsed to the ground, blood spurted out of his mouth.
Shen Ningsi's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart skipped a beat.
Her face turned pale as she rushed to Gu Xiuwu and shouted nervously, "Xiaowu! How are you? Don't scare me!"
"You damned bandits!"
Shen Ningsi glared at them fiercely. For the first time, he felt that this damn world was so terrible.
She nervously helped Gu Xiuwu up, carefully reached out to his chest, put one hand on his pulse, and her heart sank to the bottom.
The next moment, she curled her lips into a cold smile and said, "Don't you want to know where this water comes from? I tell you, we made this water out of thin air!"
"Hahaha! What a joke! This is the funniest joke I have ever heard! Making water out of nothing? Do you think you are a god?" The third in command laughed.
“Hahaha~”
Several strong men around also laughed, but Haozi's eyes kept rolling around.
He had sneaked in last night, mistakenly thinking he was injured and bleeding, but after checking, he found that although his foot was swollen and painful, there was no blood. Could it be that he stepped on water last night?
Seeing this, Shen Ningsi sneered and said, “If you don’t believe it, just go to the government office and ask. Wouldn’t you know if you try it?”
The third in command immediately stopped laughing and stared at Shen Ningsi suspiciously.
She looked confident and didn't seem to be lying. Besides, her whole family was in his hands, and he could decide their life and death, so it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
The Third Master stroked his rough beard and shouted, "Take him away!"
A group of people left in a hurry. Many people in Wanning Village saw this scene but dared not say anything. They could only silently sympathize with Shen Ningsi's family.
I heard that there is a second-in-command in Heiyun Village who likes to eat the flesh of children, and has caused a lot of harm to people.
Now, they are in trouble!
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Ningsi and several children were taken to a secluded place.
Heiyun Village was originally a mountain village occupying a hilltop. Due to the drought, the surrounding vegetation withered, adding a bit of desolation.
Shen Ningsi and others were locked in a cave. As soon as they entered, they found that there were many people hiding inside!
These people were mostly children and women, all of them disheveled and with dull expressions. They made no movement when they saw new people coming, as if they were already used to it.
Gu Yun'er grabbed Shen Ningsi's sleeve in fear, wishing she could stick close to her!
Shen Ningsi hugged the twins tightly in her arms and told Yun'er to follow her closely.
Soon, the door of the cave was closed, but Shen Ningsi did not panic because of the current situation.
She looked around silently, thinking quickly in her mind how to leave this place!
She was carrying four children, two of whom were still infants. Gu Xiuwu was injured and had difficulty walking! Wanting to escape? It was nothing short of a pipe dream!
Just then, a man walked in and asked, "Where's that woman who said she could make water? Come out! Show us your skills! Let's see if you really have this ability!"
"Take her away!"
Before Ana Shen could react, someone recognized her and wanted to take her away.
Gu Yun'er curled her lips and stared at Shen Ningsi with panic-stricken eyes, looking like she was about to cry, so pitiful.
Shen Ningsi touched her head and whispered, "Yun'er, be good. Follow your second brother and stay here with your younger brothers and sisters. Don't go anywhere, okay? Wait for me to come back!"
"Well, mother, you...you should come back soon." Yun'er's soft voice sounded, looking at her younger brother and sister in the cradle beside her, with infinite nostalgia and a hint of determination!
Looking at Yun'er who had become so well-behaved, Shen Ningsi made up his mind to let them live a good life and no longer suffer!
