Chapter 85 The Clay Buddha Can't Protect Himself

"The Japanese set up a hospital in the city, and because no one wanted to see a doctor, they asked all the prominent people in the city to go and support it. They even arrested all the doctors in the city for this!"

The woman in white smiled bitterly: "My husband is a doctor. Because he refused to hand over the ancestral prescription, he was targeted by the Japanese!"

The eldest sister sighed, "That's right. My mother-in-law is a female doctor who only treats women's illnesses. I learned my midwifery skills from her. If my mother-in-law hadn't died early, she wouldn't have allowed my husband to do such a thing. Now I can only escape!"

Every family has its own suffering.

The other three men were ordinary people and really didn't know what was happening in the city. They just went to the city to work, but because it was hot recently and the work was difficult, they were preparing to return to their hometown.

After hearing the truth about the Japanese killing people, he couldn't help but wonder: "Where are all the doctors in the city now?"

Woman in white: "Those who obeyed became the Japs' running dogs, and those who disobeyed were secretly stuffed onto ships bound for the Japs' country. Those who resisted fiercely were killed!"

Brutal and inhumane.

Father Xu spat: "These damned little devils are completely devoid of conscience!"

The woman in white smiled bitterly: "There's nothing we can do. This world is full of evil spirits, and their minions are doing evil!"

The dilapidated temple was very quiet for a while.

"So, big sister, what are your plans next?"

The eldest sister took a look at the sleeping child and couldn't help but feel sympathy for the woman in white.

"I don't dare go home now, let alone seek refuge with relatives. I'm afraid those devils will come looking for them! I can only take one step at a time!"

After saying this, the woman in white knelt down in front of Xu's father and Xu Dazhu.

"Brothers, I know what I'm doing is not very righteous, but I can die. However, my child has just come into this world and hasn't lived for many days yet. Could you please take him in?"

Xu's father and Xu Dazhu hurried forward to help her up.

"Big sister, please don't be like this. It's better for the child to live with his mother. Besides, he's such a small baby, we really don't dare to take him with us!"

Father Xu has been taking care of Little Fourteen frequently recently. Knowing how difficult it is to raise a child, he naturally doesn't dare to adopt other people's children casually.

The woman in white wiped away her tears and said, "I see your daughter is plump and fair. Your family must be treating her well. The Japanese won't let me go. I'm just trying to get her a chance to survive!"

She said it sincerely.

After all, I even told you my plan.

I guess he would wait until this night was over and then fight the Japanese to the death.

Neither Xu's father nor Xu Dazhu dared to agree. The woman in white held the child dejectedly and said nothing more.

The eldest sister held her daughter and did not interrupt. It was not that she did not want to help the woman in white, but she was also on the run at the moment. Carrying someone with her would make the burden heavier, and the possibility of being caught would be very high.

As for the three men, they dared not speak at all. Their lives were even harder. They had wives and children to support at home. If they brought a woman home, they didn't know how their wives would make a fuss.

For a moment, the despair of life was suffocating.

Xu Xiaoya poked her father: "Dad, ask her if she can prepare medicinal herbs!"

Although she had previously used the system to trade for a book on preparing medicinal materials, everyone knew that the method of being able to be printed and sold was not important. Some magical prescriptions and preparation recipes were not to be revealed to others.

Father Xu didn't understand Xu Xiaoya's plan, but he knew that Xu Xiaoya must have her own plan.

It was already the second half of the night, and no matter how thrilling the event was, people would still feel sleepy.

Father Xu came to the side of the woman in white and quietly asked about her condition. When asked if she knew any medical skills, the woman in white said, "I have been helping my husband for many years. I know how to treat most common diseases. I help with most of the preparation of medicinal materials, and I have learned a lot!"

She didn't dare say that she could do it, so she could only honestly express her full abilities.

The most important thing is that she said she could take out the prescription that the Japanese wanted to steal, just asking Xu's father to adopt his son.

"Don't bother. We live in the mountains. If you're not afraid of us selling you out, come with us when daybreak!"

Father Xu finally decided to take the mother and daughter with him.

It’s not that he is soft-hearted, but Xu Xiaoya keeps nodding at him.

It seems that these prepared medicinal materials and prescriptions are what Xu Xiaoya wants.

The woman in white turned over and was about to kneel before Father Xu, but Father Xu held her back. He glanced at the others and said, "Don't make a sound. We're leaving before dawn tomorrow!"

The Japanese soldiers outside were blown to death by them, and they were buried in pits, but they would be exposed sooner or later.

If Old Lady Xu were here, she would definitely ask Xu Xiaoya to take the person away and leave without anyone noticing. But now Father Xu doesn't know Xu Xiaoya's ability, and Xu Xiaoya doesn't dare to reveal it, so she can only choose the safest method.

Even though Mr. Xu and the woman in white tried their best to lower their voices, the older sister next to them still heard it.

She was originally on the run and had the same concerns as the woman in white, except that the person who captured her was not the Japanese but her husband.

When Xu's father sat back down, the eldest sister came up to him, holding the child in her arms: "Brother, I also have a prescription here. Although I don't know how to prepare the herbs, I can deliver a baby. You saw it too. Even though the eldest sister was in such a dangerous situation just now, I was able to deliver the baby safely!"

Father Xu looked at the eldest sister in confusion.

The eldest sister looked at the child in her arms and said, "My husband wants to give this child to the Japanese to be raped. I dare not go back to my parents' home, but the world is so big and we don't know where to go. Brother, how about you take us with you?"

Father Xu was conflicted.

What is all this?

The eldest sister became anxious when she saw that Xu's father didn't say anything.

"Brother, I know this is difficult for you, but that girl is traveling with a child. She just gave birth. If she doesn't have someone to help her, she will definitely be a burden to you along the way. I can help cover for her!"

The little girl in the eldest sister's arms opened her eyes and looked at Xu Xiaoya with pleading in her eyes.

Xu Xiaoya felt pity when her elder sister said that the little girl was going to be raped by the Japanese devils. Moreover, the analysis of the two people on the system panel showed that they were indeed not useless.

"Dad, take my aunt and sister with you!"

Xu Xiaoya spoke first, and Xu's father had no choice but to agree, but he only told them to be careful.

The gray sky began to brighten. The three men said goodbye to Xu's father. Xu's father reminded them: "Three brothers, find a place to change your clothes. If you can't find a place with a strong smell, roll around for a few times. The Japanese wolfhounds have very sharp noses!"

The three men then realized that they had only saved their lives by being polite to Mr. Xu.

After the three left, Xu's father also left the ruined temple with the woman in white and his eldest sister. In order to cover up the smell of blood, he even set the ruined temple on fire.

After walking a long way, Xu Xiaoya looked back and saw the clay Buddha in the firelight, feeling compassion and mercy.
