Those human teeth looked at each other, all a little confused.

"I didn't kidnap the child back."

"My injuries were so painful, but I didn't even take the child back."

"You didn't kidnap the child, so what's going on?"

"I'll go up front and ask."

A brave Ren Ya walked up quickly, but as soon as he bent down to bow, Shen Chou touched his neck with a knife.

Facing the fear on these people's faces, Shen Chou's blood was boiling with excitement.

"kill!"

With a loud roar from him, all the soldiers behind him rushed forward. Before those people could figure out what was going on, they all died.

After they had dealt with these people, someone reported, "General! The carriage is full of children, there must be more than a hundred of them, and it seems like they have all been drugged."

Shen Chou frowned, "Trouble, kill them all..."

Shen Zhiheng hurriedly stopped them, "You can't kill them, let them all go!"

Shen Chou remained silent, while Shen Zhiheng took over and gave orders, "Distribute the food in their carriages to the children, and then remove the chains from the children and let them decide whether to stay or go."

"Let Team Five escort those left behind back to the Master, who will take care of them."

"As ordered!"

Shen Chou was irritated. "These children were sold by their families. Their families don't want them, so why are you caring about them? It's a waste of time and food. I have to go find the goblins!"

Shen Zhiheng said coldly: "Don't forget, you and I are also people who are not wanted by our families..."

This sentence left Shen Chou speechless.

"General, there's another half-dead person over there. Do you want to take him back with us?"

Shen Zhiheng glanced at it calmly and said, "Well! Send it back!"

He was about to ride away when the half-dead child spoke weakly, "Uncle Shen Chou, is that you? Did Sister Ruyue ask you to come pick me up?"

Shen Zhiheng immediately turned around and saw a face with a bruised nose and swollen face, which was unrecognizable.

He called out tentatively, "Little sapling?"

Xiao Shuimiao didn't cry when he was kidnapped, nor did he cry when he was beaten, but now, hearing the familiar voice and name, he could no longer control himself and tears flowed out.

"Uncle Shen Chou, it's really you!"

"I actually met you alive..."

Shen Zhiheng quickly reached out and took the sapling back, then ran towards the camp at full speed. When he returned to the camp, he immediately handed it over to the military doctor in the camp.

The old military doctor first felt Xiao Shuimiao's pulse and immediately started cursing, "Which beast tortured a child like this?"

"His internal organs were all moved from their original positions by the kicks, and there's blood clots in his stomach. If he hadn't met me, this kid wouldn't have survived this night."

Shen Zhiheng's face was filled with anxiety. "We must save this child! If you need any medicine, tell me!"

Shen Chou was upset. "This child is going to die. Why waste all that time? Medicine is so expensive these days. You know, it should be used on my soldiers, not on this useless child."

Shen Zhiheng sighed, "Shen Chou, I don't know what you've been through to become so cold-blooded, but if you still want to see Ruyue, then shut up. This child was saved by Ruyue when she first came into this world, and he means a lot to her!"

As soon as Yu Ruyue was mentioned, Shen Chou's arrogance subsided.

The two souls waited outside and finally got good news.

"Well! Let's go check on that kid. He keeps calling the general's name."

Shen Zhiheng ran in quickly, and the little sapling started crying again, "Uncle Shen Chou! Why did you come back just now? Did you know that Sister Ruyue was bullied by many people in order to save you? She later fell ill and didn't get well during the whole journey to escape the famine. I don't get to see Sister Ruyue anymore..."

"Wuwuwu... If Sister Ruyue knew that you had come out and had become so powerful, her illness would definitely be cured!"

Shen Chou asked anxiously, "What disease? How did you get sick? What exactly happened?"

Xiao Shuimiao choked up and told the story of the county magistrate's visit to the noodle factory and Yu Shi's broken engagement, among other things.

Shen Chou and Shen Zhiheng felt a pain in their hearts as if they were being stabbed by needles when listening to his narration.

Shen Chou, in particular, felt extremely regretful. Why couldn't he control himself and say such vicious words...

He learned the approximate direction of Yu Ruyue and others' movement, and ordered them to set off the next day.

He couldn't wait to meet the little fairy and tell her that those were just angry words...

Yu Ruyue, who was dreaming, suddenly shuddered, sat up suddenly and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She recalled the dream she had just had. It seemed that there was a two-headed giant python chasing after her desperately, as if it wanted to eat her alive.

She was so scared that she ran all night and was exhausted.

She relaxed, washed up briefly, and then walked out of the space. She stood on the carriage, looking at the winding stream over there, and took a deep breath of fresh air. It felt so nice to be able to see the river when she woke up in the morning.

But just as she finished stretching, a bowl of black medicine was placed in front of her.

"Miss Ruyue! This is the medicine I promised to make for you yesterday. Drink it while it's hot!"

Yu Ruyue's face wrinkled as she smelled the pungent smell of the medicine. "Ah! Doctor Shen, I actually don't think I need to take this medicine."

"Why don't you go ask and see if there's anyone else who needs this?"

Shen Yuyan pursed her lips, holding the medicine bowl stubbornly, looking straight at her as if she was looking at a disobedient child.

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan both knew what the medicine was for, so they hurried over to persuade her, "My dear daughter, just take this medicine. Doctor Shen has been boiling it since we were still asleep. It must have been simmering for an hour or two. If you don't take it, you'll be ungrateful to Doctor Shen. The most important thing is that this is for your own good."

"Yes! Now that you finally have a doctor who understands your body, you should just drink this medicine honestly. You don't feel anything, maybe your body needs it."

Yu Ruyue knew that they were afraid that what happened yesterday would scare her and the child. She wanted to say that she had taken pregnancy-preserving medicine and drank spiritual spring water in the space yesterday, but looking at their worried eyes, she had no choice but to take the bowl of medicine and drink it all.

But this medicine is so bitter that it makes people feel like their souls are leaving their bodies.

She was just about to take out a piece of candy from the space when a bright red fruit was stuffed in front of her.

Yu Ruyue quickly grabbed the fruit, put it in her mouth and took a bite. Immediately, the sour and sweet juice filled her entire mouth.

"Oh my god! This is so delicious. Where did you get this, Qin Haowen?"

Qin Haowen looked at her softly, "If you like it, I'll make more today, right at the place where we slaughtered the cow yesterday."

Yu Ruyue nodded, and when she got off the carriage, she smelled the aroma of meat in the air.

In this kind of weather, meat cannot be preserved for a long time. If it is not marinated with a lot of salt, it will soon become rancid. So every household started stewing beef, and if they left the river, they were afraid that they would not even have water to stew the beef.

After finishing her breakfast, Yu Ruyue went for a walk to digest the food. Suddenly, she saw a group of villagers holding knives and going up the mountain in a mighty manner. When they came down, they were carrying not only various kinds of green grass in their hands, but also a pile of tree bark.

Yu Ruyue stepped forward curiously and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing with all this tree bark?"
