During my escape from famine, I survived by eavesdropping on the whispers of food.

After considering the matter, the official saw that the others were not willing to budge, and since the other side had a large number of people, he had no choice but to give in and said to her, "I don't want to make things difficult for you. Since you look neither too old nor too young, I will take you alone."

The two officials behind him hurriedly said, "Brother, have you thought this through? If we don't take so many children back, the divine doctor might make us look for other children. It's better to just go now..."

However, the official calmly told them, "The children here look pitiful enough. They are so thin that they are not even as good as a big goose. You might as well grab a fat one and take it back."

肥？

Qin Shuangshuang's face turned ugly. Wasn't this a blatant personal attack?

Seeing that Qin Shuangshuang was about to be taken away by them, Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Shuangshuang, you can't go. If you go to that kind of dangerous place, how will your mother live?"

"You and Qin Hao are both my life. What will I do if you're gone?"

Zhou cried with tears streaming down her face, and there was even a hint of pleading in her voice.

Qin Shuangshuang comforted her, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get you back. I will never let them hurt me in the slightest. Don't worry."

Lu Jun grabbed her wrist with one hand, his eyes slightly red, and said, "You can't go. We don't know what the situation is like there. If you go, they really will drain your blood, skin you, and pull out your tendons."

Qin Shuangshuang looked at his well-defined fingers, white as scallions, and patted them reassuringly, "Don't worry, since I was able to feed everyone here, believe me, I will definitely be able to come back."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, those people he had helped also appeared and said to the officials, "Sirs, please have mercy on us and let us go! We've already suffered enough!"

"That's right. Several elderly, weak, women and children died on the way here. This child is so small that he hasn't even had a drop of milk. If it weren't for Shuangshuang, who can give them water every day with a little bit of rice, he would have grown up so little. If you take Shuangshuang away, what will we ordinary people do?"

"The government officials are ignoring us and want to take away our savior. Where is justice?!"

The people around Qin Shuangshuang pleaded for her.

As Qin Shuangshuang watched these scenes unfold, she felt a sense of relief, knowing that everyone had seen all her hard work over the years.

The officials, seeing everyone pleading for Qin Shuang, could only sigh deeply, but still took Qin Shuang's two horns and left.

Seeing that she was really about to leave alone, Zhou hurriedly chased after her, saying, "Child, come back, don't go."

Qin Shuangshuang turned around and said to Zhou Shi, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely come back. It won't be more than a day or two. Don't worry."

When Zhou thought about all the things Qin Shuangshuang had done before, she realized that she had always kept her promises.

This time, Madam Zhou still believed Qin Shuangshuang's words and believed that she would definitely come back. She wiped away her tears and said, "Shuangshuang, if I haven't received your letter by tomorrow, your mother will definitely go to the military camp to rescue you."

Qin Shuangshuang nodded affirmatively and said, "Don't worry, Mother, I will definitely send someone to deliver a message to you tomorrow."

Zhou reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Qin Hao sadly stepped forward and hugged Qin Shuangshuang's leg, saying, "Sister, I could have gone myself, why did you have to go there? That place is full of bad people, how could you go?"

Qin Shuangshuang patted his head and said to him, "Don't worry, your sister will come back."

Qin Shuangshuang looked up and said to Uncle Li, who had a worried expression not far away, "Uncle Li, the rest is up to you. Make sure everyone is safe."

Uncle Li nodded, his voice choked with emotion. "Shuangshuang, go in peace. We're all waiting for you to come back. If we don't receive your message by tomorrow, your mother and I will lead everyone to the military camp to demand your return."

Qin Shuangshuang was overjoyed that everyone was united in coming to her rescue. "With your words, I feel at ease."

Seeing that Qin Shuangshuang was about to be taken away, Lu Jun grabbed her arm and said, "I'll go with you."

Qin Shuangshuang never expected that Lu Jun would still be thinking of going to such a dangerous place with her at this time.

Very good, she is becoming more and more satisfied with this person.

He reached out his hand and said to him, "As long as you're not afraid, we can go together."

Seeing these two young people sacrifice themselves for them, everyone was so sad that some people almost cried out loud. Several little children, especially the little children, cried louder and louder, calling out Qin Shuangshuang's name after the two of them left.

Zhou went to the door and looked out at the two small figures on the street, who already seemed rather lonely. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears. Thinking that her husband had not yet returned, she couldn't help but feel very sad. If her husband were here, none of these problems would exist. He would definitely protect her two children well.

Absolutely not. Let a young girl like her have to endure so much, watching helplessly as her daughter is taken away.

When they got into the carriage and were taken to the entrance of the military camp, Qin Shuangshuang hadn't even had a chance to walk forward when she heard someone inside wailing and crying.

The two watched as the curtain was lifted, revealing a room full of talismans. It seemed as if these people were performing a ritual. The two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Not knowing what the people inside were doing, the official then said to them, "When you go in, don't say anything. Just do what the doctor says."

When Qin Shuangshuang turned around, she saw that many little children were huddled to one side, and some of them were crying.

Some of the little babies even seemed to have cried themselves to sleep.

Lu Jun glanced over there and saw Qin Shuangshuang looking around. He turned his head and saw that the little babies there had fallen asleep while crying. His fists were clenched tightly.

Unexpectedly, someone actually dragged this child to this car in broad daylight. If it were up to current laws, their actions would certainly be met with disdain.

At this moment, the masked healer stroked his beard and said to the two of them, "These two look rather old. I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to use them for bloodletting."

Qin Shuangshuang said to him, "I'm probably the only one in this area who has eaten a lot, so my blood must be of good quality. If you're willing, you can give me more. Just let those children go."

Upon hearing this, the monk stroked his beard, glanced at her body, and stared at her with his greasy eyes.

At this moment, Lu Jun noticed that something was wrong with the other person, so he stepped in front of Qin Shuangshuang and said to him, "What are you looking at, like an old turtle!"
