Chapter 31 Not a compassionate person

The big men found that their accomplices had already carried away a lot of dry food, and they were no longer willing to fight.

"withdraw!"

The menacing man retreated like a tide.

Li Da wanted to give chase, but seeing the dead and injured colleagues on the ground, he could only grit his teeth and give up, "Sooner or later, I will catch these thieves and put them in the frying pan."

Su Ying didn't chase her either. She was worried about the old, young, sick and disabled in her family, fearing that they would become the targets of being robbed.

Su Ying saw that there was only one bag left in the place where the officials stored dry food. This amount was not enough even for a quarter of the manpower. She planned to put a few of her bags in while no one was paying attention.

Material space is provided so as not to attract people to rob it.

"Boss, what should we do? This is all we have left." The officer cried when he saw only one bag of dry food left.

More than twenty officials were killed, injured, and their food was robbed. They were also in trouble for a while.

Li Da had a dark face and said, "We'll wait until Wang Hu comes back and see what Yunshui City says." Now he can only place his hope on the government in Yunshui City. If they don't help find a solution, there's nothing he can do.

Even if it is reported to the court, it will take no longer than ten or eight days, and the waiting time can make people starve to death.

When Su Ying returned to Xiao Jin and the others, Zhao's mother stepped forward nervously and asked, "Is Madam not injured?"

Su Ying shook her head. Those people couldn't hurt her, but there were too many people in the hall, so she couldn't do anything.

"I'm fine. Don't worry, Mother Zhao. We may not be here for a long time. The dry food in the hands of the officers has been robbed. These prisoners will definitely cause chaos if they don't have anything to eat. Let's be careful and act according to the situation."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After dawn, Wang Hu, who went to Yunshui City, came back, but he brought back bad news.

When he arrived, he saw the official from Yunshui City, but the official said that they had already replenished supplies and had nothing more to give them, leaving them to figure out their own solution.

"Boss, what should we do? We can't wait here all the time. We can wait, but can those prisoners be obedient?" Originally, the official manpower was not much, but now a few more have died. The prisoners really want to rebel.

They are no match at all.

The most important thing now is where to find something to eat to survive these days.

In the next two days, Li Da cooked the remaining dry food into porridge in a large pot and distributed a little to each person. But after eating this little food, there was nothing left.

In the past two days, the rain has not been so heavy. It was sunny early this morning. Li Da wanted to set off for Wujiang Pier because yesterday he sent an official to Yunshui City back to say that there was a ship at Wujiang Pier.

.

As long as they can cross the river, they can survive.

"Get up, get up, get up and get ready to go." Li Da waved his whip and shouted to the prisoners.

Su Ying and the others had already packed their things and got up.

The prisoners had not had enough to eat before, and they had become even hungrier in the past two days. They had no energy at the moment.

Those who lay motionless on the ground were whipped violently with whips. Some were able to get up, but some could never get up again.

"My lord, please stop fighting. We really can't stand up... If we fight again, we will kill him."

An old woman in ragged clothes knelt on the ground and kept begging the officer, but the officer kicked her away and slapped a young man on the ground with a whip.

Xiao Jin glanced at the old woman, and a dark light flashed in his eyes, "Jiang Yang, bring those mother and son over."

After Jiang Yang responded, he walked up to the officer and grabbed the whip in his hand. The officer raised his head angrily, "Are you looking for death?"

Jiang Yang said with a cold face: "My body has been unable to stand up for so many days without eating and being exposed to the wind and rain. Even if you beat him to death, you won't be able to get up. It will be no good if you anger the remaining people like this."

Eat the fruit."

The official knew that what he said was right, and gave him a cold look before stopping and walking back.

The old woman knelt down in front of Jiang Yang and kowtowed gratefully, "Thank you so much, my benefactor. Thank you so much, my benefactor."

Jiang Yang knelt down to check the man's condition and found that his body was frighteningly hot. This was because he had a fever, but he didn't know what caused it.

Xiao Jin stepped in to save people, which surprised Su Ying. He was not just a compassionate person.

Xiao Jin didn't move his eyebrows and said calmly: "You are not trying to form a team. These people have received your favor. Even if they don't follow you wholeheartedly, they will still be wary."

Su Ying felt that Xiao Jin was not telling the truth, but he would not be stupid enough to let a dangerous person follow them, so when Jiang Yang carried the young man on his back, she still stepped forward to check on him.

Apart from the trauma of being whipped by an officer just now, the young man had no other injuries. The fever was probably caused by a cold caused by too much rain.

Su Ying took out antipyretic medicine from her bag and handed it to the old woman, "This medicine can cure your son's disease. If you can trust us, let him take it."

Jiang Yang saved his son, and now Su Ying is giving them medicine. The old woman doesn't believe it. They are already like this, so what else can they do?

"Thank you madam, thank you very much." The old woman took the broken bowl handed to her by Bai Shuang and let the young man drink the water and medicine inside.

Because the young man was already unconscious from the fever, Su Ying could only let him get into the carriage. Xiao Jin was watching in the carriage, so nothing would happen.

Before setting off, the old woman thanked them profusely. Su Ying could see that she was grateful from the bottom of her heart.

After leaving the ruined temple, Li Da led the team towards the mountain, probably because he wanted to see if he could find something to eat in the mountains.

On the road, victims fleeing the famine can be seen everywhere. When those victims saw so many of them walking from the direction of Yunshui City, their eyes with a hint of hope gradually turned dark.

They were going to Yunshui City to escape the disaster, but these people had to go in the opposite direction. Does that mean that Yunshui City couldn't give them a chance of survival at all?

Some people who had doubts stopped and looked at them, not knowing for a moment whether they should move on or what to do.

When Su Ying and others arrived at the foot of the mountain, they found that there were victims of the disaster all over the mountain. They were searching the mountain like a carpet, probably looking for food. Even the roots of the edible wild vegetables and leaves on the mountainside were not left.

Seeing such a scene, Li Da was heartbroken. It seemed that it would be difficult for them to find food in the mountains.

But it was getting dark, so we had to find a place to stay first.

"You guys go pick some people out and follow me to the mountains to see if you can find some food." At this time, he was about to starve to death, and he no longer cared about whether there would be prisoners.

escaped.

"yes."

Su Ying pulled the carriage to a big tree and tied it up. As soon as she walked over, she clearly felt countless pairs of eyes falling on her body, and she couldn't help but tighten her grip on the reins.
