At full speed, Yinzi's speed was like a flying bullet. In only two days, the three of them, one wolf and one tiger, had passed Jingzhou, passed Jiangzhou, and arrived at the junction of Haizhou and Bazhou.
In the dead of night, when people were quiet, well, not quiet, the small team stopped for the first time and settled in a cave on the top of a mountain.
The reason why people are not quiet is that there are many refugees staying in the mountain. Just this night, there are still some of them holding torches looking for food.
Now Divine Doctor Shi, who has nothing to do with the Immortal Wind Daoist, has fallen asleep leaning against the cave wall. The spirited young man Shui Qing, with disheveled hair and a tired face, leaned against Divine Doctor Shi and fell asleep.
Even Qi Bao'er himself seems to be quite energetic, but in terms of image, he has been completely neglected.
Her hair was as messy as Shui Qing's, but she was even more exaggerated because she was the one facing the strong wind most. Some of her hair was stuck back, but at first glance, she looked quite individual. The rabbit fur cloak on her body looked like it had been ravaged.
, rub it here and there, and it will form into lumps.
Just because Yin Zai was fast, Qi Bao'er was worried that the two ordinary people behind him would not be able to sit firmly on the road. Fortunately, the water was clear, but if Miracle Doctor Shi was thrown away halfway, she would be guilty of a big sin.
So the girl came up with a trick and took two wide cloth straps to tie the two behind her together.
There was no way it would fall down, but who knew that Doctor Shi and his disciples were so timid. They didn't scream the whole time, and Doctor Shi's hand kept grabbing her cloak hard.
It is estimated that when they passed by on the road, the refugees thought there were wolves in the mountains.
She used her spiritual power to block part of the wind and reduce their pressure. The two of them were able to manage themselves as if their bodies had been hollowed out. They had to stop and rest after just two days.
Qi Baoer rolled his eyes in disdain and fell asleep instantly as soon as he stopped. Now the master and the apprentice, who are both asleep, have turned into pigs: She is not as good as a child. Isn't it embarrassing?
The cave they were in was in a relatively obscure place on the top of the mountain, on the side of the cliff. In addition, it was night, so you couldn't find the cave unless you got close to the cave.
At this time, three people came to a place not far from the cave. All three of them were wearing shabby clothes and were so thin that they lost their appearance.
Among the three of them, only one man, who seemed to be in better spirits, was holding a torch. They were very close to each other, and they were all looking for something in front of them.
"Brother Big Dog, even a layer of soil has been shoveled, and not a single insect can be dug out."
The man who was called Big Dog Brother was the man holding the torch. He sighed and said, "If I keep looking, I can pick up some grass roots."
Another man next to him was so tired that he collapsed on the ground, "Brother Big Dog, didn't those refugees say that the imperial court would distribute relief food? When will it be distributed?"
"How do I know this? There should be food distribution in every town, right? Let's find something to support today, and we can enter the town tomorrow. Even if there is no food distribution, there should be porridge.
We are lucky enough not to be locked out of Bacheng."
Qi Baoer, who was eavesdropping openly: "???"
Is Bacheng on lockdown?
"Brother Big Dog, please don't mention that again. Oh, it's too dangerous. Just the front and back feet...what the hell?"
The man was immersed in searching on the ground and talking, when suddenly a pair of feet in snow-white plush boots appeared in front of his eyes.
But the person was so frightened that he fell backwards and landed on his butt, then moved back on tiptoes.
When he called out to the other two people, one raised a hatchet and the other raised a wooden stick.
Then, both of them were stunned.
This, in the middle of the night, where did such a beautiful baby doll come from in the mountains?
Look at this fat baby with milk all over his face. Look at the clothes on the baby. There is a hosta in his head, and he is wrapped in what looks like an expensive plush cloak and the laces of the cloak.
Wearing a drop-shaped jasper that is as thick as two fingers on a person, exposed under the cloak is a pair of boots with the same plush leather tops. The boots are also embroidered with gold threads and connected with layers of bamboo leaves. The bamboo leaves are inlaid with a
Full pearls.
"Hiss~"
This can no longer be described as either rich or noble. Isn’t this something that an immortal cannot afford?
In other words, if you are not an immortal, you should not look like this.
While the minds of these two men were spinning, Qi Bao'er, who had been deceived by the immortal, already asked: "What did you just say about the closure of Bacheng?"
After a pause, she added: "Answer me and I will give you food."
These three people are all kind-hearted, and she is not afraid of their evil intentions.
Even if they have evil intentions, they are not afraid. At worst, they will be beaten until their parents don't recognize them.
Sure enough, after hearing her words and realizing that the milk baby was a human being, Brother Big Dog looked nervously from side to side, and then expressed his hatred for Qi Baoer in a hushed voice, as if he was facing a rich lady who did not eat the sufferings of the world.
Iron is not made of steel and he warned:
"Don't dare to be so loud. Everyone is going crazy for food now. If anyone knows you have food in your hand, you will be in trouble.
Son, where is your family?"
How could this family be so arrogant that they let such a young child run around on the mountain alone in the middle of the night?
The other one also came closer, his voice was even lower, and he looked around like a thief while talking: "Little girl, don't say anything about food outside, or you will attract bad guys to eat you."
Partly to scare her, and partly to tell the truth.
After the disaster hit the south, although many people began to flee, there was no shortage of food on the way.
Even if there is no relief food, there is no shortage of water in the south, and you can always find something to fill your stomach in the mountains and fields.
But later on, more and more places were affected by the disaster, and more and more people came out to flee the disaster. Most of them chose the road to the capital. After experiencing batches of victims, the wild vegetables on the mountains
After these were dug up, there was no time for the roots to grow again, and even the roots of the grass were all dug up later.
People can't bear to be hungry. No, there are some people on the road who have lost their conscience and will do anything. They can eat one by one, steal one by one, eat one by one, etc.
It has become a very common thing.
If the chubby kid in front of me meets those people...
The man was excited and looked around nervously, "Little girl, where is your family? They should be nearby. You should go back quickly. Don't run around alone in the future. There are many bad people outside."
Qi Bao'er noticed the kindness of these people from the beginning, but she never expected that these three people could be so kind to a strange child when they were already hungry.
It would be a lie to say that I was not touched.
She smiled and did not refute the man's words, and said, "I'm not afraid if someone protects me. Our family is going to Youcheng. I just heard you say that Bacheng has been sealed off. Is that true?"
Someone to protect?
The three of them looked up and around unconsciously.
Let's just say, this is a noble lady from a wealthy family.
I heard that noble people are surrounded by hidden guards to protect them. It seems to be true.
