Master Shen, who was sitting on the cart, was also worried about what was happening behind him and shouted anxiously, "Hurry up, don't leave anyone behind, hurry up!"

The sound of the cart's wooden wheels rang out again. The women and children pushed the cart with all their might, the old men helped to pull and support it, Da Hu blew a whistle and directed the horses and cattle to move forward, and the men looked around vigilantly and also wanted to help pull the cart a little.

Although we were all extremely tired, we didn't dare to stop. Didn't we hear that wild dogs eat people? It was too scary.

Although they had fought wolves before, they had time to prepare and had fires. What do they have now?

Just at this moment, a cold wind blew, making it feel chilly.

It's been so hot these days. If there was a breeze like this in broad daylight, they would be so happy, but now!

It was so damn creepy. Shen Zhiqiu felt that the wind was blowing in a weird way. Everyone was busy walking without talking, but the wind was blowing like ghosts howling.

He shuddered again: "Yo yo, hurry up, read something nice to Dad! Don't scare me anymore!"

Shen Youyou wanted to cry but had no tears: "The Supreme Command, your lonely soul will be liberated, all ghosts and spirits, those who have been blessed with a head in life will be liberated..."

Shen Zhiqiu was even more frightened: "My daughter, my daughter, what are you reading?"

"The mantra for salvation!"

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. After he said that, Shen Zhiqiu felt like they were surrounded by ghosts: "You chanted to ward off evil spirits!"

Shen Youyou rolled her eyes. She was really hard to please: "Dixuan Sect, the root of all Qi. I have practiced for billions of kalpas to prove my supernatural powers. Within and outside the Three Realms, only Taoism reigns supreme..."

They had not walked five hundred steps when a series of clanging sounds were heard from Shen Youyou's "Golden Light Spell".

Another horse fell to the ground and Shen Youyou's curse stopped. Everyone looked at it and said, let's go, let's go, we don't want anything anymore.

As luck would have it, next to the horse that fell, there were two corpses that were still rotting. On the horse were corn kernels, as well as some pots, pans, clothes and other things.

At this time, we can't ask for food. Many people, whether they believe in something or not, feel that this matter is full of strangeness.

Many old ladies began to mutter as they walked: "Excuse me, excuse me, please don't be angry. We will give you the horses, food, pots and pans, and everything else. When you get there, you can just light a fire and cook. Please don't bother us. Thank you, thank you!"

Shen Zhiqiu looked at his daughter and really wanted to ask: Does your spell to ward off evil spirits really work?

But when he saw his daughter was so tired and looked so depressed, he shut his mouth, fearing that his daughter would just give up and not study at all. So he decided to study at least a little, as it was better than nothing!

The grain happened to belong to the widow Li Xiu'e. The woman bit her cheek, tears welling up in her eyes, but she didn't come forward to ask to take the grain away.

Mr. Shen was worried again, as Lao Jiu's family only had this one child: "Ping An's mother, just take good care of the child. The food is gone, and we can't let you starve. Let's go, let's go!"

Li Xiu'e's tears, which she had been trying to hold back, suddenly fell, and she choked with sobs as she responded, "Grandpa, I know!"

Grandpa Shen said that because Li Xiu'e's family had nothing except the food. As a woman, the villagers would not allow her to push things. Her son Shen Ping'an was even carried on the back of Grandpa Shen's grandson.

At this time, in the basket on Li Xiu'e's back, there were a few buckets, some clothes, and her son's small quilt.

Fortunately, their bedding was on another horse, otherwise they would have lost it too.

Li Jingshu felt soft-hearted, even though she was really unfamiliar with Li Xiu'e. Not to mention that she had no memory of them, even if she had the memory of living in the county town for many years, she would not be familiar with them.

But she couldn't stand being a woman without anyone to rely on, so she followed along with her child, never saying anything, and always avoided men when they walked. She always stayed with women, not giving people a chance to gossip.

At this moment, Li Jingshu felt that God was deliberately making things difficult for the poor people. Among so many families, it was the people with the smallest population, the least food, and no one to rely on who had to encounter this incident.

It’s not that they are really superstitious and don’t dare to take that thing, but the two corpses were badly rotten and the bags of grain were piled on the corpses, making it impossible to eat.

"Xiu'e, don't be sad. There are so many of us here. We definitely can't let you and Ping'an starve."

Li Xiu'e nodded and smiled, the tears in her eyes had not yet dried, but her stubborn look made people feel even more distressed.

Many women offered words of comfort as they walked.

Shen Youyou and Li Jingshu, who had no memory of ancient times, now understood what ancient clans were.

It was already the late night, when people were most sleepy, but the people of Shenjia Village were still walking in the dark forest.

It was not known whether it was a jackal, or a wild dog that did not follow them, or perhaps it followed them but saw the horse and stopped following them because there was food.

But everyone still didn't dare to relax and continued to drag their heavy bodies forward.

The children, in the adults' bamboo baskets, moved their sleepy little heads nodding one after another, and then woke up with a startle. Perhaps the journey tonight was too terrifying in their little hearts, and they dared not close their eyes to sleep.

It was not until the morning when the sky began to turn pale and was no longer pitch black that the reconnaissance team stopped at the foot of a cliff after seeing that there were no corpses or jackals, tigers or leopards nearby.

Shen Youyou sat down and lay down directly, not caring whether there were bugs or whether there was a straw mat.

His body was covered with grass and leaves, his hair was messy, and he just closed his eyes and fell asleep. He couldn't be woken up even if you called him.

A few days ago, she felt that she was getting to know herself again every day, and that she was breaking her own limits almost every day.

Sometimes she felt dizzy and had difficulty breathing when walking, and she knew that it was because she was so tired that she was almost itchy.

She thought she might die from walking, just like the cows and horses that fell to the ground.

But after today, she will tell you that the limit of a human is not feeling dizzy or having difficulty breathing, but being able to fall asleep in a second after falling to the ground.

Everybody was sitting sprawled out; even the strongest men did not have the energy to cut hay; the horses and oxen had to grit their teeth to unload the hay.

This situation lasted for half an hour before Old Man Shen spoke up, "San'er, I think the other two cows and two horses are not in good condition either. What should we do?"

Hunter Gao also said, "Although the meat on the cart didn't go bad overnight, a lot of mosquitoes bit it last night, and it's buzzing. I'm afraid it can't be eaten."

Da Hu hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, there are not only two horses, but also several more. It's not good to watch them."

Shen Zhiqiu had thought of the result. He had walked for a day and a night without drinking any water. He felt that he was going to fail, let alone the oxen and horses that were dragging so many things.

"Throw away the meat yesterday. It's best not to touch it with your hands. If you touch it, remember to wash your hands and disinfect them with alcohol. Sprinkle some alcohol on the cart loaded with meat to disinfect it. Kill the cattle and horses that are in poor condition, pick up the good meat and make jerky, and stew the remaining bones. The stewed bones can also provide us with nutrition."

Finally, he reminded Hunter Gao: "Leave more meat on the bones!"

Hunter Gao nodded. His throat was dry and smoking. Killing animals, especially large ones like this, was very strenuous. In fact, he was already out of strength. His legs were weak and he couldn't even clench his fists.

Shen Zhiqiu saw it, so he stood up and moved a jar of Shen Youyou's distilled liquor.
