Quick Wear: After the spare tire awakens, the official partner is sacrificed to the heaven
Chapter 37: The Submissive Half-brother in the Exile Story (12)
The woman was drowsy and pale. She had a fever and had long been unconscious. No matter how the man shouted, she did not respond.
Not long after, the man put his hand on the woman's nose with a trembling hand. Suddenly, his eyes shrank sharply, his pupils widened, and there was moisture and surprise in his eyes. He shook the woman with both hands, "Mom, wake up, wake up."
The woman is dead!
After this incident, everyone became worried.
Everyone looked at the others who had a fever and had a bad feeling in their hearts.
The officers and soldiers simply moved the dead woman out of the cave and placed her randomly on the spot.
The woman's son wanted to let her rest in peace and wanted to find a suitable place to bury her, but unfortunately... God didn't allow it.
The violent storm made the situation outside unknown. The officers and soldiers did not dare to risk their lives to relocate the four people, and even if the woman's son wanted to, he was powerless.
It was the first time that Qi Chen saw a dead person with his own eyes, and there was fear in his eyes. This time, he truly understood the dangers of exile.
Qi Chen stayed in Jiang Zui's arms all day and refused to come out, as if Jiang Zui's arms were his safe place.
Jiang Zui also knew that Qi Chen was frightened, and he tried to comfort him patiently.
Throughout the day, five or six people died one after another.
Although Jiang Zui had cold medicine on him, he did not take it out and chose to remain silent.
He has always been cold-hearted and never cares about other people's affairs.
Even if he took out the cold medicine and saved that group of people, others would only express their gratitude and ask him where he got the medicine from.
Once he stands out, all future problems related to illness will come to him.
If you can cure it yourself, that's fine. But if you can't, you will be scolded.
He is afraid of trouble and doesn't want to be a savior in the eyes of others.
He still understood the principle of repaying kindness with resentment.
Moreover, most of the people who could be exiled were criminals who had committed crimes, and only a few were implicated.
After Jiang Zui coaxed Qi Chen to sleep in his arms, he carefully entrusted Qi Chen to Yin Yue, asking her to take good care of him.
He found the leading official and said, "Sir, the rain has been falling since yesterday and has not stopped until now, and the rain is going to get heavier.
We haven't eaten since yesterday, and we don't know when the rain will stop. If we wait until the rain stops before going out to look for food, it may be too late.
My husband had a fever last night, but luckily he has a good constitution and his fever has slowly subsided this morning. He hasn't eaten yet, and I'm worried that his body can't bear it. I beg you to allow me to go out and look for food."
The official frowned, looked at the heavy rain outside, sighed and said, "If that's the case, then go ahead and come back in two hours."
Jiang Zui mentioned Qi Chen deliberately to let the other party know that he still had a weak spot in his hand, and he would agree to it readily.
Sure enough, as soon as the other party heard Qi Chen, he let him go.
In fact, the officials were very reassured about Jiang Zui's proposal to go out to find food, and were not afraid that Jiang Zui would run away.
Apart from Qi Chen, it was more because of the weather. Just based on this horrible weather, choosing to go down the mountain at this time was a wrong and dangerous choice.
Jiang Zui did not call Qi Zhan and Qi Ze. First, he was worried about their safety, and second, they would be too much of a nuisance around him.
As Jiang Zui ran out of the cave, he was seen by the bored crowd, and they all asked the officers and soldiers, "Sir, who is that man? How did he get out?"
"Sir, why did that man go out?"
"Are you going to find reinforcements?"
......
The Jiang family and the Zhao family also saw Jiang Zui going out. The least surprising thing was that the Qi family had told them from the beginning that Jiang Zui had gone out to find food.
Seeing this, the leading official loudly explained: "Everyone be quiet, he is just out looking for food."
Hearing what the official said, Jiang Li curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Just relying on Jiang Zui... and still looking for food? It's good enough that he can come back alive."
Jiang Hongsheng frowned when he heard this.
The reason why Jiang Hongsheng acted like this was not because he was worried about Jiang Zui's danger, but because he blamed Jiang Zui for not telling him and leaving without permission.
What made him sad was that if Jiang Zui had an accident, he would lose a labor force that he could call upon at any time and use at his will.
Liu Yu, who was standing by, saw Jiang Hongsheng's expression and said nervously, "Lili, stop talking. Xiaozui is your brother after all."
"He is not." Jiang Li retorted.
Jiang Hongsheng didn't make any comment on Jiang Li's words, as if Jiang Zui had nothing to do with him.
Liu Yu laughed and said, "Xiaozui, if we can bring food from outside this time, we won't have to starve anymore."
Thinking of this, Jiang Li raised his head and said with a proud look, "Humph! Even if we can find food, so what? Can he give it to us?"
"The master is Xiaozui's father, I am Xiaozui's stepmother, and you are his younger brother. We are all family. Xiaozui will definitely give it to us." Liu Yu said.
Liu Yu is really good at using the abacus beads.
Qi Chen woke up not long after Jiang Zui left. He did not hear Jiang Zui's voice, so he quickly asked Yin Yue, "Father, where is my husband?"
Yin Yue whispered, "Jiang...Jiang Zui went out to look for food."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Chen stood up instantly and said, "What?!"
"It's very dangerous outside now. How can he go looking for food alone? No, I have to go find him."
As he said that, Qi Chen turned around and walked towards the cave entrance, but was stopped by Qi Zhan who was standing beside him. He said, "Chen Chen, calm down. Jiang Zui will be fine. Just wait here and don't cause trouble for Jiang Zui."
Qi Chen was suddenly at a loss for what to do after hearing Qi Zhan's words. He could only hang his head, staring at the cave entrance, waiting for Jiang Zui's return.
On the other side, Jiang Zui, after coming out of the cave, checked the surrounding terrain and found that their location was at a higher altitude and there should not be much danger.
Because of the rain, the animals hid themselves and after searching for a long time no prey was found.
Jiang Zui had no choice but to find a lot of wild fruits and sweet potatoes.
Coincidentally, Jiang Zui found some slightly damp firewood, which should still be ignitable. These firewoods should have been prepared in advance by nearby hunters who went up the mountain, and now they are cheap for Jiang Zui.
Jiang Zui returned to the cave with wild fruits, sweet potatoes and firewood.
When everyone saw Jiang Zui coming, they immediately surrounded him and chattered and asked questions.
In the end, the leading official came out and dispersed the crowd, but even so, some people were still staring in Jiang Zui's direction.
Jiang Zui saw the crowd disperse, and saw the excitement and entanglement in the official's eyes, so he said directly: "Sir, I found some wild fruits nearby and picked up some firewood."
"Wild fruits?!" the official shouted as soon as he heard Jiang Zui's words.
