Chapter 67

Guo Xian sat in front of the case and remained silent for a long time. At this moment, he already regretted his attitude of letting the county magistrate refuse to listen to his persuasion. If he had known this, he would have interfered forcefully.

……

Gu Lan was awakened by the smell of rice, and her stomach was rumbling and drumming.

"Father, you're awake." An An is very smooth in calling her father now, she just opened her mouth and came out, trying to help her up with her small body.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw such a considerate son Gulan smiled, and sat up straight with his strength.

"Well, it's the smell of food, my son is awesome." Gulan praised.

Although she was very happy, An'an was embarrassed. She looked at Da Ya and Er Ya, "Father, I didn't help much, it was all done by Da Ya... um, Da Ya."

Every time An An called Da Ya her elder sister, the little girl didn't dare to answer, and kept asking An An to call her by her name.

"It's all great," Gu Lan praised again, which made Da Ya feel shy.

Smiling softly at his son, Gulan stood up and moved his body enduring the rumbling in his stomach.

He fell asleep in one position all the time, and his body was inevitably sore and weak. After punching once, he felt much more comfortable, then he rinsed his mouth and took the cooked food off the fire.

Not only them, but the whole Lijia Village and Village Chief Zhao were all burning fires to cook food. After they were full, they had a good rest and had to hurry on their way.

As for staying here to rest for a day, even if the big guy had this idea, the village head would not agree.

The village chief can't forget that familiar face at all, only the farther away he is, the more stable he feels.

What Da Ya made was simple porridge with wild vegetables, and she put rice in it. Thinking of what the host said to have a good breakfast, she wanted to put brown rice instead, and put rice instead.

Knowing the rules of the master's cooking, Da Ya did not dare to put less, so the wild vegetable porridge is thick and thick, not only smells delicious, but also looks very appetizing.

Gu Lan who lifted the cover was very satisfied, but the disadvantage of having someone with her was that she couldn't eat eggs openly, and Xiao Baozi's quail eggs were also abstained.

However, when people are not paying attention, Gu Lan will secretly stuff the delicious food in his son's mouth, and whisper to his son to keep it secret, that adversity is the moment when people grow the fastest, and An An, who is suffering from hunger, has already understood this truth. Faintly aware of the difference in Mother, she nodded almost without thinking.

After the meal, they rested for half an hour, and at the urging of the village chief, the team moved again.

This time they were going to Jiaocheng. The distance between the two cities was hundreds of miles away, and they could walk for ten days and a half months on their legs.

The rest of the journey was very peaceful, and they did not encounter other victims on the road. They chose a ruined temple to rest before nightfall.

This is the second ruined temple that Gulan has seen so far in this world. The same thing is the same ruins. The difference is that it is bigger and can accommodate more people.

The entire ruined temple was surrounded by a large forest, and the road was lined with it. As for the range, it could not be seen at a glance.

It is about a mile away from the road, and they almost missed it if it wasn't for the fact that the temples are usually built relatively tall.

Although it was broken, it was able to keep out the wind and cold anyway. Some people finally didn't have to rest in the open air at night, and everyone was quite happy.

However, no matter how big the ruined temple was, it was impossible to drop hundreds of people at once, so under the arrangement of the village chief, all the elderly, children and women were arranged into the temple, and the younger men rested outside.

An An has a mother who dotes on him, and she doesn't want to leave and enter the ruined temple with Grandma Li, so Gu Lan had to take him outside.

Gulan was not willing to be separated from his son. The two little girls on the left and right would follow Aunt Li to rest in the ruined temple at night, and the mother and son could rest in the carriage. Thinking that his son might be more comfortable than being crowded in the ruined temple, Gulan also Not to mention forcing his son.

I chose a thicker tree to park the carriage under, helped the horse add some water and food, and entrusted them to Aunt Li and Uncle Li.

There is still some time, she will take An An and the two little girls to find wild vegetables around.

There is enough food, but there is a shortage of vegetables. Looking for wild vegetables every day is a must-do before dinner.

In just a moment, the Kung Fu Temple was surrounded by people looking for wild vegetables, including people from Xishan Village.

Village Chief Zhao's team has shrunk to only these after passing through Lingshan Town, and they are all those who are usually close to him.

At this moment, everyone is trying their best to find more wild vegetables in order to have an extra bite for dinner.

With a few children, Gu Lan deliberately alienated everyone, and couldn't dig up many wild vegetables if they were too close.

Moreover, Gu Lan was not used to the way these people looked at her. Although there was no malice, most of the eyes even showed admiration.

But she, who has never been good at communication, instinctively wants to stay away and save trouble.

Also, she's not a real man after all, and it's not easy to get through if she's farther away.

The drought became less severe as it went west, and the whole forest looked lush and lush, and the chances of finding wild vegetables were very high. They harvested a small basket without much effort, not counting her smuggling into the forest. part of the space.

Dinner is the same as before, not too complicated, just simple wild vegetable porridge with vegetable cakes, buns and steamed buns.

What everyone didn't expect was that the weather, which had not changed for several months, suddenly changed after dinner.

It turned out to be just a gentle autumn wind, but suddenly the wind blew up.

Women, children, and elderly people hid in the ruined temple with their packed luggage, and everyone hurriedly took out the rainproof guys.

Bamboo hats, coir raincoats, oilcloth umbrellas are all ready, once it rains, put them on your body immediately.

As for putting up the canopy now, it is not realistic at all under strong winds.

With his son Gulan, he hurriedly led the carriage against the wind and chose a leeward position, and stopped behind a giant tree on the right side of the ruined temple at the same time as the Li family's mule cart.

The cars of the village chief and several other households parked behind a tree not far from them, and everyone moved to this direction and hid under different trees.

Although Gu Lan knows that it is best not to hide under the tree in rainy days, but when it is really encountered, there is only one to hide under the tree, and it is not in the hot summer season that it will dry out after being exposed to the rain for a while.

Now that early autumn has passed, the daytime temperature is much lower than usual. If it is rained at this time, the possibility of getting sick is too great. Gulan dare not take his son at risk.

This kid is unwilling to follow Aunt Li into the ruined temple, and she doesn't worry about the carriage, that's all.

Besides, she can encounter things like resurrection from the dead, and Gulan believes in her own luck.

Besides, she caught so many bad guys in her previous life, and saved a lot of people directly and indirectly. God should give some of her merits rounded up.

The ancients didn't pay much attention to these things. They were already very happy to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain on rainy days.

There was still some space in Gulan's carriage. At her invitation, Li San and Li Sitong hid in the carriage. Li Da and Li Er were worried about the carriage and mules, so they hid beside the mule cart covered with oilcloth, wearing a bamboo hat on their head Wearing a coir raincoat.

As the strong wind intensified, the sky quickly darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the surroundings were suddenly pitch black.

Then there was a muffled thunder rumbling from the sky, and as the thunder burst, finally, the lightning broke out, like a sharp sword, piercing the sky in an instant, and that shining circular arc rushed all the way down from the clouds , until the edge of the sky, instantly illuminating the dark sky.

From a distance, it seems that in the dark clouds, thousands of soldiers are carrying towards the unknown distance.

Immediately afterwards, heavy raindrops fell like water jets.
