In a chaotic world of infrastructure development, a woman's path to survival after being reborn

It was true that the carriages needed to speed up. Even if the disaster victims didn't move immediately, they still needed to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible for their safety. So, as the last carriage in the procession left the exit, the procession gradually began to accelerate.

Generals Zhao Zexuan and others stayed at the exit until the group left before turning around and following. As soon as they left, the disaster victims who had been hesitant to move immediately became agitated, and some who were unwilling to accept their fate immediately grabbed their children and followed.

The vehicle was traveling at high speed, making it difficult for even an ordinary person to keep up, let alone someone carrying a child. Most of the disaster victims had given up the chase, but a dozen or so carrying children still managed to follow.

These disaster victims may have lived nearby before and were familiar with the trails around the mountain, so with their perseverance, they actually managed to get to the front of the procession and suddenly appeared as the procession passed by.

The soldiers guarding both sides of the line were no pushovers. Upon seeing the sudden appearance of the disaster victims, they immediately became vigilant, drawing their swords. If these people made any move, their swords would fall as well.

Originally, it was thought that these dozen or so disaster victims had come to block the road, but when they rushed up, it wasn't to beg for food or to steal food. Instead, they threw the children in their arms into the carriage without warning.

Originally intending to knock away what they were throwing, the soldiers opened their eyes and saw it was a child. They quickly withdrew their swords and shouted angrily, "Are you out of your mind?!"

There was a large group of disaster victims watching from behind, so the procession couldn't stop. The vehicles continued to move forward, and the children who had been thrown in were sitting on the frames of the vehicles, crying and shouting for their fathers and mothers.

The soldiers wanted to take the children out of the vehicle and return them to the people, so although they were wary of their approach, they did not use knives or swords against them.

These disaster victims who threw their children into the vehicles were desperate and had no other choice but to resort to this method in an attempt to save their children's lives. Hearing the children's heart-wrenching cries, they chased after the vehicles, crying out, "Children, don't cry. Your parents want you to live. Don't blame your parents."

As they spoke, these people knelt down in front of the group and pleaded, "Sirs, we don't ask you to give us food, we just ask you to give our children a bite to eat. We have no other choice, they can't live without food."

"If we leave them here, they might end up as someone else's food. Please, adults, give this child a way to live."

The cries and shouts continued unabated. The soldiers looked solemnly at the dozen or so men who were kowtowing on the road until their heads bled, and hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do.

This scene caused quite a stir, with the cries of children and the wails of adults mingling together, causing the villagers on the bus to look up. For a moment, some of the soft-hearted women couldn't help but shed tears as well.

Su Li's car was in the middle of the procession. She had witnessed the scene just now and heard the stories of these disaster victims. Now, sitting upright in the car, she sighed deeply and said to the outside, "Mo Bei, take some men to tie up those dozen or so disaster victims who threw their children onto the car. Throw them onto the car first. We can talk about other things after we leave here. Have the people on the car comfort the children who were thrown onto the car."

Upon hearing this, Mo Bei immediately replied, "Yes, Madam."

……

Mo Bei moved quickly, and soon the crying outside stopped. The group returned to silence and continued on their way.

The situation down the mountain was indeed as rumored. The road was full of disaster victims, some lying down, some sitting, and some staring blankly. However, most of the disaster victims on the road were scattered. When they saw the group, they consciously hid to the side and did not pose a great threat.

Occasionally, the sound of crying could be heard from the roadside, but it would quickly disappear, and at that point, everyone could only pretend that they knew nothing.

Today's itinerary was a bit rushed; the plan was to arrive in Huacheng before dark, so the group didn't stop to rest the entire way, constantly traveling. Even lunch was eaten in the vehicle.

With a separate carriage, it was much easier for Su Li to take things out of her space. She didn't deprive herself of lunch either, and simply took out a bowl of clear soup noodles from her space.

Food placed in the space remains the same as when it's taken out, so the noodles are still hot when they're served.

Fortunately, the clear broth noodles didn't have much of a smell, and the carriage provided some privacy, so Su Li ate a bowl of hot noodles without worry.

After finishing the noodles, Su Li felt completely satisfied, her stomach feeling warm and cozy. She let out a comfortable sigh of relief.

Because there was enough cotton picked last time, Su Li specially took some and placed it on the carriage. Now, the cotton was spread on the carriage and covered with cloth, which made it much softer.

If it weren't for her current situation, and if she could ignore the crying outside, perhaps Su Li would feel much more at ease.

Food is the most important thing for people. Without food, life is over. Now Su Li really wants to experiment with all the seeds in the space and grow more crops so that there will be less suffering in the world.

"I wonder where Zhao Zexuan has finally decided to settle the team. I hope they can settle down before winter!" Su Li thought to herself.

Zhao Zexuan, whom Su Li was concerned about, was currently discussing with his generals where to rest.

“We’ve been traveling all day, and everyone looks tired. Let’s stop and rest in another half an hour,” Zhao Zexuan said to Wang Cong beside him.

Upon hearing this, Wang Cong nodded and said, "In another half hour, we will pass a sheltered slope. The terrain there is flat and suitable for camping at night."

"Send a squad of soldiers ahead to check the surrounding area!" Zhao Zexuan reminded them.

“Okay,” Wang Cong replied.

Wang Cong withdrew to arrange the night's encampment, and the other generals who were following him couldn't help but ask, "General, wasn't the original plan to arrive in Huacheng before dark? Won't resting so soon delay our time?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zexuan shook his head and said, "That place is not far from Huacheng, and judging from the scene just now, it is not safe near Huacheng. There may be disaster victims gathering there!"

Upon hearing this, the generals exchanged glances, understanding the situation perfectly, and began to worry about Huacheng's condition.

"Huacheng is currently under the control of the King of Wu, so it will be difficult to pass through Huacheng!" a military advisor said with concern.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zexuan looked ahead and said, "Who said we were going to pass through Huacheng!"

"Does the general have another good idea?" the generals asked eagerly.

“There is a village near Huacheng called Majia Village. It is in a remote location. By using that village, we can easily bypass Huacheng and pass through here,” Zhao Zexuan said.

The generals exclaimed, "Truly!"

Zhao Zexuan: "It's true!"
