Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

The houses in Wucheng have always had the habit of storing grain, and they also opened a grain shop here, which was closed when something happened. Now there is still a lot of grain in the Wucheng houses, enough to keep them going for more than a month, and even allow them to hold on 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. Therefore, 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 is possible that the old man and his companions were in danger and had lost their way. Otherwise, how could he explain why he could not 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 to it, which allowed him to live so easily these days. If he sent people 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.

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 have passed, and no one has found their location. This made Wang Shiyu curious. What are these people thinking?

This is such a good opportunity, but you didn’t even 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 they were 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 never sent anyone to look for them. The people Liu Yong sent to follow the Zhang family were now setting up a dragnet 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 could 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 just encountered. At this moment, 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 when something happens to him, he can hold on longer and wait for someone to rescue him. This has enabled him to save himself countless times when he grows up.

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

The originally depressing life passed smoothly for a whole month amid the family's laughter and chatter. After a month, the sky seemed to have discovered some changes. At this moment, you were in the east, and you emitted a faint light, which seemed to have broken through the darkness and ushered in the light. In their eyes, 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, it would be their fault. If they stayed here, they were afraid that their whereabouts would be figured out.

They dug up 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 members stayed at home for the past month and hardly went out. There was very little noise in their house, so even with the light of fire, the wild beasts did not attack easily. This allowed them to spend the month safely. They were very lucky. You know, many people were attacked by wild beasts in those cities. They were able to survive so safely in the deep mountains. It was really God’s blessing.

By the time the sky was completely bright, Wang Shiyu and the old man had dug out all the surrounding mines and traps, and even removed everything inside the traps.

Wang Shiyu and the old man went to a cave a mile away, intending to take the food inside. However, Scarlett had stored too much food at home, so their backup plan was completely useless.

The two brothers were currently taking out the food stored in the cellar behind the house. These things would be their next food. Originally, they wanted to go straight to Wucheng, but because of the weather, they were trapped here. So they could not delay any longer and had to speed up and move forward.

According to their current time, the Zhang family must have left Wucheng and continued to move forward. Since it was already late, the old man decided to stay here for a few more days and try to wait until the Liu family members in front and the people who were chasing Zhou Qingyun left with the Zhang family. Then they would continue to move forward. They did not plan to walk on their own two feet.

They planned to stay here for a few more days to rest up, and then after the people from Wucheng left, they would go down the mountain to Wucheng to buy a carriage and horses directly, and hire people from the escort agency to rush forward. Their family no longer planned to show up in public, and they would just hire escorts to escort them. They had been through a lot along the way, and now it was different from before. They had water and grass, and they couldn't let the livestock starve to death or die of thirst.

As for Zhou Qingyun, they could simply hide the child in a backpack and put it on the carriage. As long as they kept him quiet along the way, there wouldn't be any big problems.

Although Zhou Qingyun is young, he has already learned the royal mind-set, so his breathing is long and deep. Even if there are martial artists around him, they may not be able to hear it. His granddaughter will be no problem at all. She is not an ordinary person and she will definitely find a way.

It was relatively easy to fool those bodyguards, so after a brief rest, they stayed for another three days before slowly walking down the mountain along the mountain road. Now, there were already many people carrying baskets at the foot of the mountain collecting wild vegetables. From what they said, it seemed that they were the refugees who had originally stayed in Wucheng, and now they had been arranged to settle down in various villages around.

They didn't know the name of the mayor of Wucheng, but they could feel that he really cared about the people. He distributed food to the people and allowed them to settle down here.
