Chapter 59 Waiting



The houses in Wucheng have always had the habit of storing grain. In addition, they opened a grain shop here, which was closed when the incident happened. Now there is still a lot of grain in the Wucheng house, enough for them to survive for more than a month, and even for them to survive to Qiongdao, but they can't carry it with them.

After it got dark, Zhang Tao arranged for people to wait at the gate of Wucheng for the arrival of the Wang family. He believed that if Wang Huan came to this area, he would definitely look for the largest city to cover his tracks, especially since he had a child who was being hunted by the enemy. It would not be easy for him to hide in a small place, so he could only deal with himself in a big place!

As a result, the people he sent out waited at the city gate for more than ten days but received no news from the old man. So he realized that he was thinking in the wrong direction. It was possible that the old man and his men were in danger and had lost their way. Otherwise, how could he explain why he couldn't see these people?

He was worried that Zhou Qingyun would implicate the Wang family, and was even more afraid that he would directly implicate and kill them. After all, the people who were chasing Zhou Qingyun were not simple people. If he really implicated the Wang family, he would die of shame. He had not been able to help this child for so many years, but he did not expect that he would cause trouble to the younger generation when he was old.

In addition, he was originally a prisoner, and living in his own house at this time was already a violation of the court regulations. It was just that the escorting officials and the mayor of Wucheng turned a blind eye, which allowed him to live so easily these days. If people were sent to look for him again, it would probably be impossible. Wucheng was once Liu Yong's base camp, and he was worried that if he made any move, he would be killed.

It would directly implicate the Wang family, and according to regulations, he should be in the dungeon in Wucheng. In order not to cause trouble to others, he could only stay in the house and keep silent. He didn't dare to inquire about the situation outside. Before Liu Yong's people were found, he didn't dare to act rashly.

At this moment, the people of the Wang family seemed to be reluctant to leave. The place they chose might be a little remote. More than ten days had passed, and no one had found their location. This made Wang Shiyu a little curious. What were these people thinking?

This is such a good opportunity! Why didn’t you send anyone to look for it? What are you thinking?

In fact, it was because Wang Shiyu and the others had gone in the wrong direction when walking in the forest and went deeper into the mountains. They were now far away from the road to Wucheng, and the Zhang family had not sent anyone to look for them. The people Liu Yong sent to follow the Zhang family were now setting up a tight net on the edge of Wucheng, waiting for Zhou Qingyun to destroy himself. As a result, due to the information gap, neither side encountered the other side, which was considered lucky.

The old man and his two sons were weaving straw raincoats by the light of firewood. Zhou Qingyun was curious, so he followed the three of them and learned. Now, he was able to weave a small straw raincoat by himself. Although it was not very neat and some parts might leak, it was not bad.

The current Zhou Qingyun no longer has the world-weary feeling they had when they first met. Instead, Zhou Qingyun displays a vigorous and optimistic temperament. He seems to understand that his life may be a burden to others. He now strives to protect himself when encountering danger and not be held back by others, or to hold on longer when something happens to him and wait for someone to rescue him. This has enabled him to save himself countless times when he grows up.

I have turned a blind eye to the fact that the old man would take out some pheasant and pork from time to time. I know that he can eat these things if they are taken out, so why bother to find out the reason?

The originally depressing life passed smoothly for a whole month amidst the family's laughter and chatter. After a month, the sky seemed to have noticed some changes. At this moment, you were in the east, and you emitted a faint light, as if you had broken through the darkness and ushered in the light. In the eyes of these people, the twilight seemed to be salvation, as if it had defeated the darkness and successfully ushered in their daytime.

After seeing the light in the sky, Wang Shiyu and the old man quickly went out and began to dig the mines around them. Since they were leaving, the mines around them had to be cleaned up. If the original owner of the house came back and accidentally exploded them, it would be their fault. If they stayed here, they were afraid that people would figure out their whereabouts.

They dug out all the mines around and dealt with all the traps set around. It seemed that prey had entered some of the traps, but the prey inside was nowhere to be found, leaving only some bloodstains. It should be that they failed to break through their outermost line of defense, resulting in the prey not entering the middle. The places where the prey disappeared were probably dragged away and eaten by the wild beasts that surrounded here. The pits they dug were relatively profitable, and the prey that died inside were basically dragged out.

In addition, the Wang family stayed at home for the past month and hardly went out. There was very little noise in their house, so even if there was fire, the wild beasts did not attack easily. This allowed them to spend the month safely. They were very lucky. You know, there were many people attacked by wild beasts under those cities. They were able to survive so safely in the deep mountains. It was really God's blessing.

By the time it was completely light, Wang Shiyu and the old man had dug out all the mines and traps around them, and even removed everything inside the traps.
