Chapter 38 Getting Robbed Twice In One Day

Chapter 38 Being robbed twice in one day

"I'm coming."

Jiang Yuqing quickly took the things from his mother's hands.

But even though he was much stronger, he still fell down under the weight of the pile of things.

After carrying the things to the open space and putting them down, Jiang Zhiyue explained: "At first, I thought this thing was strange, so my grandma and I bought a few. Unexpectedly, it would come in handy."

"This thing is called a tent. Once we fix it on the ground, we won't have to lie out in the open at night."

After that, I will teach you how to hold it up and secure it to the ground.

Everyone learned how to do it, and the eight tents were fixed in a short time.

Several people were discussing with great interest.

"This is really a good thing. This is my first time seeing it."

"But I think this thing is most practical when it rains. It is definitely better than a raincoat and oilcloth to protect against rain."

"Uncle Mu, Sister Qiqi, why don't you join us tonight?" Jiang Zhiyue invited with a smile.

Mu Ping and Mu Qiqi were a little hesitant. It would definitely be more comfortable to lie in here at night than outside, but this thing looked very precious. If they agreed, wouldn't they be taking advantage of them again?

Others also followed Jiang Zhiyue's words and said, "Yes, Doctor Mu, this tent can accommodate several people in one tent, so you can join us."

What they thought was that they would inevitably trouble him along the way.

If you ask others to do their best, of course you must also give it sincerely.

Seeing that they couldn't refuse, the Mu family father and daughter agreed, but they both thanked the Jiang family in their hearts.

Two little girls, Jiang Zhiyue and Mu Qiqi, were in the same tent.

That night, everyone slept comfortably and no mosquitoes were bitten.

When he was on the road the next day, Mu Ping felt that it was entirely thanks to the Jiang family that the father and daughter could sleep so comfortably at night, so he took the initiative to come over and help them push the cart.

The Jiang family didn't refuse, they just went back and forth, this kind of friendship was resolved.

After walking a little further, everyone found many corpses on the road.

The weather was hot, and the body had been exposed to the sun without anyone handling it, and it was covered with squirming white insects.

As soon as we got closer, we saw maggots all over the ground. The dense and shocking mess made people feel like they were suffering from trypophobia.

When the adults saw this, they had to cover the children's eyes.

But Saburo couldn't hold back his curiosity and took a look at his mother's hand.

"Ugh! It's so disgusting!"

Mrs. Sun also felt disgusted when she saw that scene. She suppressed her nausea and said, "You deserve it. Seeing how well-behaved your fourth brother is, you are the only one who insists on seeing it."

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's go faster." Jiang Zhiyue raised her voice and said, ensuring that everyone could hear it.

Mu Ping, who was walking behind, also walked a few steps quickly and said, "The little girl is right. Diseases may occur if the body rots for a long time. Everyone, please hurry up and cover your mouth and nose."

Jiang Zhiyue also thought of this. She walked outside the carriage where little Wang was and opened a small gap in the curtain with her hands as she walked.

She said: "Third Aunt, please pass me some of those masks you sewed before we set off."

When they first arrived here, Jiang Yulai asked Xiao Wang to lower the car curtain, fearing that the scene outside would scare her.

So little Wang sitting inside didn't know what was going on outside.

When she saw a hand suddenly reaching out, and before she could react to what her little niece said, she saw with her own eyes her ability to transform things out of thin air.

Jiang Zhiyue's palm was facing up, and a small pile of strange-looking fabric appeared in her hand.

"Thank you, Third Aunt." Jiang Zhiyue smiled and took her hand out.

Then she took the "masks sewn before departure" and distributed them to everyone, including the Mu family's father and daughter.

"Put the two holes on your ears and cover your mouth and nose with cloth." Jiang Zhiyue briefly taught everyone how to use them.

Everyone didn't care to look at the things that were stuffed into their hands, and quickly followed the method taught by Jiang Zhiyue and put them away.

During the next journey, several dead bodies would appear at regular intervals, and without exception, they were all rotting.

No one dared to stop, and they didn't even take a break at noon. They just wanted to pass through this area as quickly as possible.

It was not until evening that the number of corpses on the ground gradually decreased, but they continued to move forward, wanting to get farther away from there.

Finally, they saw a mountain not far away,

After walking for several kilometers in a hurry, everyone finally arrived at the foot of the mountain before dark.

Jiang Yulai took a long breath and said, "I can finally stop and take a rest. I'm almost exhausted."

The others were also exhausted and bent over to hammer their sore calves.

"Hurry up and cook. It's been a tiring day. Let's take a good rest after dinner."

As Mrs. Jiang spoke, she took the lead in taking down the pots and pans from the car, and Mrs. Zhang, Sun and Huang Huaihua also hurriedly helped.

Seeing that the Mu family's father and daughter had also put the pot on the ground to cook, she said, "Qiqi girl, stop working. Let's put two more handfuls of rice into the pot. Let's eat together today."

"How's this? Dad and I can just do something simple." Mu Qiqi refused shyly with a smile.

Jiang Zhiyue walked over and pulled up Mu Qiqi who was squatting on the ground, and pulled her to their side without refusing.

"Everyone has been tired for a long day, so don't make more fires. Sister Qiqi, please come over and help us."

She knew that the Mu family father and daughter did not like to take advantage of others, so she asked her to help.

"Okay, but just this time." Mu Qiqi said.

After walking on the road for so long, the meat and vegetables they brought out have been used up, but fortunately, Jiang Zhiyue still brought out a lot of sauce.

A large bowl of thick white porridge per person, as well as warm cakes and sauce brought out by Jiang Zhiyue from the space, are simply the most delicious food in the world on this escape road.

Everyone looked satisfied after eating and felt that the fatigue of the day had dissipated a lot.

However, the people in Jiangjia Village on the other side were not so lucky.

After they parted ways with the Jiang family, they continued on their way east.

They met a lot of people on the road, all of them were sallow and thin, and it was obvious from a glance that they had not had enough to eat for a long time.

Those people also saw this group of people with a lot of food on them.

Some people who were red-eyed from hunger tried to snatch their food, and soon the two parties got into a fight.

Those hungry and irrational people began to rob the people of Jiangjia Village of their food.

The fierce force on their bodies actually caused them to drag down a lot of grain, which was scattered all over the ground.

These people didn't care that the flour was mixed with the dust on the ground, and they didn't care that the millet was not shelled at all.

When they saw the grain on the ground, they just lay down on the ground and started eating. The dirt mixed with the grain was eaten in their mouths, and they choked and rolled their eyes while still eating.

But after all, they are not as powerful as the people in Jiangjiacun who can eat every day, and they are not as large as the people in Jiangjiacun.

After a while, these people were hacked to death by the vicious Jiangjiacun people.

Seeing that something was wrong, the remaining people took the food they had grabbed and fled quickly.

Everyone was very distressed after losing so much food.

Those who had been robbed of food chased them for hundreds of meters without catching up, so they could only walk back cursing.

"What a bunch of damn things. They even robbed them of food. Why don't they choke to death?" Mrs. Wu said cursingly.

Just now, a lot of food was robbed from her family.

The food could not be recovered, so they could only continue on their way, thinking that it would be better to wait until they reached Fucheng. The prince would definitely find a good place for them.

However, misfortunes never come alone.

When they were resting at night, something happened again.

They found a suitable place to rest and had a quick bite before falling asleep.

As usual, Jiang Hengrong arranged five people to watch the night.

But those five people dozed off as before after the others fell asleep.

Nothing had happened at night so far, so they took it for granted that there was absolutely no chance of an accident.

So when a group of people came quietly, the nearly two hundred people in Jiangjia Village didn't sleep at all, but they were still sleeping soundly.

Through the moonlight, we could see many people walking quietly in the distance, looking greedily at the place where the people of Jiangjia Village were resting.

And what they looked at, besides the food, was the sleeping children lying next to the adults!

"Ah ah ah, snatch the child!" A woman's exclamation woke up the group of sleeping people.

The woman struggled to hold on to the child who was almost snatched away.

The severe pain in his arm also made the child cry out.

"Wow wow wow~~ I hurt, it hurts so much." The child repeated the same sentence over and over again.

But it was this sharp cry that completely woke up the people in Jiangjia Village who were still in a daze and didn't know what was going on.

As soon as those people saw that they were all awake, they knew that if they delayed any longer, they would lose even what they had already obtained.

One person shouted decisively: "Everyone, run."

After saying that, the man who was still fighting with the woman for the child dropped the child, picked up the bag on the ground, and ran away.

The woman cried bitterly while holding her child who was almost snatched away.

At this time, other people who had reacted also started shouting.

"Catch the thief, my food has been stolen."

"My grandson is missing. He must have been snatched away by those people just now. Please help me find my child!"

Suddenly, there were cries, calls for help, and curses all mixed together.

They just sat there and cried and howled, instead of using the fastest time to catch up with those people.

By the time they got up crying and trying to find the lost food and children, those people had already scattered and fled.
