The night was dim and the stars were weak, so everyone continued to move forward in the dark.
Finally, after running another five kilometers, they were exhausted and had to stop.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders. However, when they stopped, they realized that their bodies were in great pain, and it turned out that many people had been injured to varying degrees.
Qian Xingshan's left arm was slashed at some point, and blood stained his sleeves red. When he left the place just now, he silently endured the pain in order not to delay everyone's departure.
He could hardly bear the severe pain, but he still gritted his teeth, held the reins of the carriage tightly with his right hand, and drove it forward with difficulty.
Now, when the carriage finally stopped, Qian Xingshan could no longer bear the pain and groaned softly. This faint sound attracted the attention of Qian's mother.
She came to her son with concern and found that he was covered in blood, which made her feel nervous.
"Xingshan, are you hurt?" Qian's mother's voice was filled with worry and anxiety.
Zheng Ran had already lit a fire, and the bright flames illuminated the surroundings.
In the light of the fire, Qian's mother saw the blood on her son's body more clearly. A trace of fear flashed across her eyes, and she tightly grasped her son's arm.
Qian Xingshan forced a smile and tried to comfort his mother: "Mom, don't worry, it's just a superficial wound."
Zheng Ran put down the firewood in his hand and took Zheng Qinqian to Qian Xingshan.
At this time, Mrs. Dong and Dong Nianmei also rushed over after hearing the news. Qian Xingshan had just heroically saved Dong Nianmei's life, and Mrs. Dong was grateful and came with her daughter to thank him.
Zheng Ran signaled Qian Xingshan to take off his coat so that he could check the wound.
Mrs. Dong felt a little embarrassed, so she had to turn around and leave with Dong Nianmei.
In the light of the fire, Qian Xingshan's wounds were torn apart, looking particularly shocking.
Zheng Ran frowned and carefully treated his wound.
Zheng Qin took out the medicine bag that Sister Chunhua had given them when she left.
Qian Xingshan's wound looked shocking, but it was indeed a superficial injury and could be treated properly.
Not only him, but also Zheng Ran and his fellow junior brothers and sisters, as well as Qingsong, Xiaoling and Xiaowu, they were all injured to varying degrees, but their wounds were not as severe as Qian Xingshan's, and they did not bleed as much.
After treating the wound, Butler Dong also returned with the secret guards.
Everything that happened tonight made everyone in the room tremble with fear and unable to sleep.
Old Madam Dong was even more frightened. If Dong Cong had not been taken away by Yang Feiling, and they had successfully left the city that day, they would have been doomed with only the secret guards and their own guards.
Fortunately, fortunately...
While feeling relieved, Mrs. Dong started to worry about her son and grandson again.
At the Sun family, Sun Di looked at his swollen ankle and grimaced in pain.
When the bandits came just now, he was so nervous that he sprained his ankle while dodging.
Now that he was safe, he had time to check his injury. His ankle was swollen as big as a steamed bun.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family was dissatisfied: "I told you that you had to follow them when you had a good life. Now look what happened, you almost lost your life."
After saying that, she glared at Sun Meiping fiercely, as if to say, it's all your fault.
Sun Meiping hugged Zhao Xiaoyun and smiled bitterly. She had no choice.
Although Sun Meiping did not participate in the fight against the enemy in the chaos just now, she was frightened and her heart was beating fast when she saw the vicious bandits.
During the whole process, she suppressed her fear, hugged Xiaoyun tightly, and supported Zhao's mother.
