Even though I was dressed as an ugly woman, I was still forced to love by all kinds of big guys

Before reaching Yuanshan, the carriage broke down. The battered wheels rolled a long way and the carriage shook violently, almost causing the people inside to fall backwards.

There was no choice but to get off the bus and move forward with difficulty in the wind and snow. Fortunately, they were not far from Yuanshan.

In less than an hour, we finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. We originally thought that there wouldn't be too many people here, but we saw quite a few people seeking refuge. Everyone was holding torches, forming a long fire dragon.

They followed the crowd up the mountain. The youngest one led the way and looked back at Su Su from time to time.

Humans are social animals. When they are afraid, they tend to gather together. The larger the group, the safer they feel, but it also means they are more conspicuous.

So Su Ling led his men directly over to the back of the mountain, away from the crowd. After settling everyone down, he blew a whistle to call a carrier pigeon and try to see if he could pass the message to Li Xinglan.

Su Su called over Honeysuckle and Poria cocos, picked up some dead branches, and imitated Li Xinglan's method, mixing and crossing them together to weave a simple long board.

Looking at her skillful technique, Fuling was surprised, "Young Master, you can do this?"

Su Su smiled, looking innocent and naive, "Brother Gou taught me when we were fleeing."

After they were woven, they were fixed between two trees to block the falling snow. Su Su looked at Shen Jiaojiao and Madam Shen who were shivering with cold and felt a little troubled.

They were so lightly dressed, without even a cloak, that they could not help shivering even as they sat before the fire.

What should they do? Looking at the snow falling non-stop, Su Su thought, in such bad weather, there is no way they can survive ten days in the mountains.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind: there was a Yunwu Village nearby, which should be safe!

Yunwu Village is located in a remote area, and the mountain road leading to the village is extremely difficult to travel. She and Gou Ge went there to rescue refugees, but if they hadn't had a guide leading the way, they wouldn't have been able to find it.

Thinking about it, she sat back on the ground, comforted Shen Jiaojiao, called Su Ling, and told him her thoughts.

After hearing this, Su Ling nodded and said, "We'll leave after we pick up Uncle Chen and the others!"

The bonfire was crackling, and Su Su was surrounded by Fuling and Honeysuckle in the middle. The three girls huddled together for warmth. The youngest girl was always alert to the movements around her, patrolling this small area back and forth.

Shen Jiaojiao hugged Madam Shen and rubbed her arms from time to time. She glanced at Su Su who was resting with her eyes closed, and felt a little admiration in her heart.

Faced with this situation, she did not panic, but kept a clear mind. She did not hold everyone back on the way up the mountain, but stopped frequently for herself and her mother.

Her soft-soled shoes had already been torn and bleeding, and she was afraid that her mother would feel sad, so she bit her lip and said nothing.

Su Ling added some firewood to the fire, then took off his coat and handed it to Shen Jiaojiao.

She looked up, watching the firelight illuminate Su Ling's resolute face, and felt a little shy. "It's so cold, what will you do if you give it to me?"

Su Ling still had that expressionless poker face. He firmly spread out the clothes and covered the shoulders of Shen Jiaojiao and Madam Shen, saying, "Madam, please forgive me."

He glanced and saw that the tips of Shen Jiaojiao's embroidered shoes were stained red with blood. He frowned. In fact, when he just went up the mountain, he noticed that the way she walked was a little strange.

He turned and called out to the youngest, trying to negotiate with it, "Will you stay here, or go find some herbs?"

Shen Jiaojiao and Madam Shen both looked as if they had seen a ghost. Could this dog understand human language?

Unexpectedly, the youngest one seemed to really understand. He let out an "Ah!", turned around and disappeared into the darkness. After a while, he really came back with a few herbs.

Amid their shocked eyes, Su Ling calmly took the herb from the youngest's mouth and ground it into slag with gravel.

Walking up to Shen Jiaojiao, he squatted down, his tall body almost level with her sitting, "Take off your shoes, I'll apply medicine for you."

Madam Shen disagreed a little. Although she had a good impression of Su Ling, a responsible young man, she still had to pay attention to the impact.

Just when I was about to say something to persuade her, I saw Shen Jiaojiao taking off her shoes without any hesitation, and heard her acting like a spoiled child, "Be gentle, it hurts."

Su Ling said "hmm", stretched out his big hand, held the small and tender white foot in his hand, and applied medicine to her gently.

After that, he massaged her ankles and calves. "You're pretty amazing. You endured it all the way without even crying out in pain."

Being praised by Su Ling for the first time, Shen Jiaojiao unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, "That's right! I'm not that kind of weak little Jiaojiao!"

Su Ling raised his eyes, looked at her smug little look, and smiled lightly. Their eyes met in the air, and ambiguous pink bubbles burst open with crackling sounds, warmer than a burning bonfire.

Mrs. Shen swallowed her words of advice and turned her head away. Forget it, the situation is special, so she will just pretend she didn't see it.

On the other side, Su Su and Fuling Rendong were watching with great interest. The three of them remained calm and tacitly turned a blind eye, enjoying the fun of the two of them.

I really can’t tell, Su Ling, this straight guy, is quite capable.

After finally getting through the night and waiting until noon, Blind Chen and Aunt Wang still didn't show up. To make matters worse, Mrs. Shen fell ill after a night of tossing and turning.

Although the youngest brought some herbs to reduce fever, Madam Shen couldn't stay in the mountains any longer.

Su Su found a conspicuous big tree, carved a dog's head on it with a knife, and left the three words "Yuwu Village", hoping that Dog Brother or Uncle Chen could see it.

Relying on her memory, she led everyone to Yuwu Village. Fuling carried Madam Shen on her back, and Su Ling carried Shen Jiaojiao on his back, walking in front to lead the way.

Looking at their backs, Su Su suddenly felt a little sad. She missed Gou Ge so much. He had done the same thing before, carrying her on his back and walking step by step to Luoan City.

It has to be said that Su Su and the others were lucky. Not long after they came down from the back of the mountain, thick smoke billowed out of the mountain and heart-wrenching screams resounded throughout the valley.

The enemy actually chased into the mountains, and they were unwilling to let go of even a single civilian!

Everyone quickened their pace. Suddenly, the youngest one who had been running in the front and disappeared, cried out "Ah Ah Ah" and ran back anxiously.

Su Su saw it and immediately understood. This was outrageous! She called out to everyone, "There are pursuers ahead! Quick! Follow the youngest one!"

The youngest one ran very fast, and everyone followed closely behind it. Suddenly, the youngest one turned around and cried "Ah Ah Ah" and ran in another direction.

Su Su: ...

What does this mean? Are we going to let people live? There are pursuers on this empty road on both sides. There is nowhere to hide.

There was no other way, Su Ling could only call out to everyone, "Run to the Du County ahead first!"

Although he didn't know what the situation was in the county, it was still safer than running on the uncovered road, so the youngest one still took the lead and ran in front.

Su Su was naturally struggling to hold her treasure chest, so Ren Dong reached out and said, "My lady, let me help you hold it!"

She knew that the box contained gifts and letters from everyone, and that the young lady treasured them very much, so she didn't forget to promise, "I won't lose it!"

Su Su didn't waste any time. She handed the box to Rendong and ran faster, holding up her skirt.

When everyone finally ran to Du County, they found that the city gate was closed and the entrance was full of civilians who had fled there. They begged the county magistrate on the city gate to open the door, but there was no response.

Su Su was so tired that she was breathing heavily, bent over, and supported her knees with her hands. Although it was a cold day, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

She raised her eyes and looked at the top of the city wall. It was so similar to the scene when the imperial city refused to open the city gates. It was really dramatic.

As time passed, the city gates still showed no sign of opening, and a steady stream of civilians rushed in, bringing horrifying news that the enemy was killing and chasing them, and the army would catch up in three incense sticks at most.

When everyone heard this, the pushing and shoving became even more intense. People with a strong desire to survive even tried to break down the city gate with their bodies.

Su Su was small and was almost suffocated by the crowd. She was held in Rendong's arms, trying hard not to fall. If she fell and was trampled, she would die.

Han Junyue stood at the city gate, looking at the civilians below with a complicated expression. The county magistrate reported respectfully beside him, "Sixth Prince, the supplies and new guards have been prepared for you. You may depart."

He nodded, took one last look at the city wall, and was about to turn around when he heard a vague shout.

"Old Six!!!"

Su Su made trumpet shapes with her hands, placed them to her lips, and called out to Han Junyue at the top of her lungs, "Sixth Brother!!! Han Junyue!!!"

Han Junyue suddenly turned around and finally found Su Su's figure at the foot of the city.

Her face flushed red and she called his name desperately. Lao Liu raised his eyebrows and a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

You damn woman, there comes a time when you need me for help.
