Chapter 5 Trapped in a Cave
Gu Fei could guess a little bit about what her father was thinking, but she was only a seven-year-old girl after all, and many things could not be said too clearly, otherwise it would be too surprising.
After spending the past few days with the Gu family and recalling the original owner's memories, Gu Feixue understood that the Gu family was exiled because of injustice.
The appearance of the assassin tonight is a strong proof of this point.
If this injustice can be redressed, the Gu family will be vindicated. Even if they cannot be reinstated and restore their former status, they will at least be good citizens. Isn't it good to live an upright life under the sun?
Isn't it all about doing whatever you want?
At least it doesn't have to be like this now, with no place to stay in the wind and rain, and no food to eat under the vast sky.
Gu Feixue made up her mind that she would redress the Gu family's wrongdoing if she had the chance.
Gu Feixue looked coldly at the refugees who had snatched the golden beads, with a sneer on her lips.
The Gu family can continue to stay because she was convicted of murder and robbery, and the group of people who stole the gold beads and food were also accomplices.
Sometimes you don’t have to be reasonable to stay in the team.
All you have to do is drag people into the water.
Human nature is so despicable, there is nothing wrong with that.
After everyone fell into a deep sleep again, Gu Feixue had no mood to sleep.
She stared at the dark sky in a daze. After figuring out the necessary steps for redress, she began to think about how to survive the current disaster.
The fundamental reason why my father was dismissed from office and exiled was this disaster.
Therefore, if the disaster can be resolved, even if the culprit is not found, at least the crime can be atonement.
Solving the disaster is a long-term task and there is no need to rush, but the most important thing at the moment is to find food.
Early the next morning.
Gu Tingchuan, who was still sleeping, was pushed awake by Gu Feixue.
Gu Feixue whispered: "Brother, while our parents are still resting, let's go find something to eat."
Gu Tingchuan nodded: "Xue'er, you were frightened last night, so you should stay and rest. I can go."
Gu Feixue shook her head. "My family is struggling financially right now. Big brother, don't treat me like a three-year-old baby. Don't abandon me. If you don't let me go with you, I'll go secretly by myself."
"..." Gu Tingchuan reached out and stroked his sister's head, feeling distressed. After thinking it over, he finally compromised.
The whole mountain is barren. If you really go over the mountains and search for it piece by piece, you probably won't be able to find anything to eat even if you die.
Knowing that this brute force method was not a solution, Gu Feixue decided to use perspective.
She gained this ability after traveling through time. Perhaps God felt that he had treated her unfairly, so he made special compensation for her.
As soon as she reached the mountain, she concentrated her mind and energy, activated her clairvoyance, and followed her elder brother in the search.
God helps those who work hard, and she really found food.
In a cave in a valley not far away, there was actually a large amount of food and supplies hidden.
Looking at the neatly arranged rice, flour, fruits and vegetables, she was very excited!
But the next moment, she suddenly realized that so many things must have been hidden there intentionally by someone.
It seems that the disaster has not been resolved until now, and there are indeed many tricks.
She shouted to Gu Tingchuan who was looking for food on the other side, "Brother, there's a small cave in the valley over there. Should we go in and take a look? Maybe there's food hidden there for small animals."
Seeing his sister's anxious look, Gu Tingchuan decided to go over and take a look.
When he reached the cave entrance, he looked inside. It was pitch black. He turned around and worried about his sister's safety: "It's pitch black in there. I'll go in and explore first. You wait for me outside."
"good."
Gu Tingchuan went in first, and Gu Feixue waited leisurely outside. She knew very well that there was no danger inside, only piles of tempting food.
If Gu Tingchuan can achieve merit through this, then...
"Xue'er, come in quickly!" After a while, Gu Feixue heard her elder brother's surprised and excited voice.
Gu Feixue was about to go in when she saw a figure suddenly appear in front of her.
Qinggong? Amazing.
The man was tall and slender, wearing a black robe with a trim, his hair tied up high, holding a sword in his hand, looking heroic, and looked to be about the same age as Gu Tingchuan.
He actually wore such luxurious clothes during the famine years. This person is no ordinary person!
She looked at him warily, and the man also looked at Gu Feixue warily: "Why are you, a little kid, here?"
Gu Feixue didn't want to pay attention to him and ran straight into the cave.
"Brother, I'm coming in." She deliberately raised her voice to show that she was protected by someone!
"Huh?" The boy looked surprised. "I saw the cave first. Don't rush ahead of me."
The two of them rushed into the cave, and all they saw were countless sacks.
The young man thrust his sword in, and all that flowed out was white rice...
Gu Feixue and Gu Tingchuan swallowed at the same time, looked at each other and laughed: "Great, we found food. Not only the Gu family, but all the refugees can be saved."
Gu Tingchuan nodded and looked at the young man: "Who are you?"
The young man walked around the cave, inspected it, and squinted at the brother and sister. "Shouldn't I introduce myself before asking others?"
He groped around on the rocks in the cave, as if looking for something.
Suddenly, as if something was touched, loud noises came from the cave. Rocks collapsed and the ground cracked, and rocks rolled down from above. The three of them were unable to avoid them.
Fortunately, the vibration did not last long. When it stopped, they found that the only exit of the cave was blocked by fallen rocks.
The young man's brows furrowed as he glared at the brother and sister. Unexpectedly, Gu Feixue's mind raced faster than his. "Okay, you must have been the thief who hid the food here. You saw you couldn't hide it, and you were afraid we'd get out and report it, so you were rummaging around just now hoping to trigger the trap and trap us two to death, right? I was wondering why you showed up just as we found this cave. Who knows if you've been following us all the way!"
“…” Gu Tingchuan and the young man both choked.
The young man quickly recovered and snorted, "What a trick! The villain is the first to complain. I'm trapped here just like you. Do I have to pay for it with my own life just to silence you? I guess it's hard to say who is guilty."
