A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!

Everyone ignored them, finished their meal, packed their things, and continued on their way.

These people had no choice but to continue following them. In the afternoon, after walking for an hour and a half, Xia Ning called a halt to rest on the spot and set off again early the next morning.

Those who followed, after the main group stopped, did not dare to rest. Instead, they went in groups to find food nearby. Wild grass or tree bark would do; anything that could fill their stomachs would do.

"This is for Zhao Zhongren, who came to see me at noon." Xia Ning handed a large package to the guard. Zhao Zhongren took it and saw that it contained lard, salt, eggs, and dried meat.

He immediately knelt down, saying, "Thank you, Lord Marquis, thank you, Madam." They are truly good people!

Others cast envious glances, but they only dared to envy and not harbor any wicked thoughts. This was the Marquis's territory, and everyone here belonged to him; they were not allowed to run wild.

Because there was no shortage of food or water near the prefectural city, the trees had not dried up, and there was plenty of grass.

Few of those following behind had pots, so they had to share and cook wild vegetable soup. Smelling the aroma of rice in the air, and looking at the bitter wild vegetable soup in my hand, I felt a pang of bitterness. I wanted to slap myself a few times that morning for being so foul-mouthed, for not knowing right from wrong, for meddling in other people's business.

Xia Ning and Jiang Yi did not go to the space to sleep that night. They took advantage of the time when they went to the restroom to go in and take care of their son, prepare food for him, and then left the space.

Thankfully, there were so many animals in the enclosure. My son suffered quite a bit with them. At such a young age, he often had to take care of himself.

"Jiang Yi, at today's pace, it will take us several days to get out of the earthquake zone."

"Five days."

It's too slow; we need to speed things up and get into the city tomorrow.

"Let's leave earlier tomorrow and walk a little further."

"Yeah, I think so too."

The refugees included men, women, and children of all ages; the elderly, children, and the injured slowed down the process.

The next day, everyone was woken up at dawn. The fatigue from the previous day, despite a night's rest, was not relieved; instead, the aches and pains worsened.

They forced themselves to get up, wash, eat, and then continued on their way.

They could sense that the Marquis seemed to be in a hurry, eager to get on his way and leave this place. They didn't understand why, but that was alright; experience had taught them time and again that following him was the right thing to do.

Wherever it passed, there were only ruins. The extent of the disaster was no less than that of Hangzhou. This shows how terrifying this earthquake was. Those who survived are all thanks to the blessings of their ancestors.

That day, they walked for six hours, resting for only one hour in between. Everyone complained incessantly. Some people were too exhausted to walk any further and gave up, trying to follow slowly behind, thus falling further and further behind them.

Most of those abandoned by Jiang Yi couldn't hold on any longer and have long since disappeared from sight.

Those who fell behind dared not lag behind for too long, for there was a pack of hungry wolves behind them. If they saw them alone, they would definitely steal their food. They were afraid that without food, they would die.

So, after everyone had set up camp and eaten dinner, those people finally caught up. They were so tired they didn't even want to cook, and immediately collapsed into a deep sleep, snoring like dead dogs.

Under Jiang Yi's impolite urging, they left the earthquake zone in three days. Seeing how exhausted everyone was, he ordered them to rest for two hours on the spot.

Seeing that the collapsed houses and the cracked earth were gone, the Marquis was noticeably less anxious and breathed a sigh of relief.

Could it be that there's another major earthquake happening near Hangzhou?

It's quite possible! There were quite a few aftershocks along the way.

The Marquis's urging is definitely to save everyone's lives!

After leaving the earthquake zone, it took about four hours to travel a day. After a few days of training, everyone was able to handle it.

Five days later.

"I'll leave you here. How you survive and where you go from here is up to you."

He has fulfilled his responsibilities and done his utmost for them.

"Master Hou!"

Those who followed him were suddenly told that they had to survive on their own, and they were all panicked and at a loss. In the chaos of the world, they had no idea where to go.

The world is vast, yet there is nowhere for them to find refuge.

"Please, Lord Marquis, don't abandon us!"

"Please, Lord Marquis!"

Jiang Yi told them the truth, "I plan to go to Sichuan, which is a long way away and will take at least one or two months."

The meaning is clear: they can't get to the place he's going.
