My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Chapter 33 No.30 Chapter Three: Hungry Everywhere
Every inch of the land along the way, every tree I saw was stripped bare, naked in the wilderness.

Those dry and hard mud blocks can smash people into big bags.

There is not a single grass root to be seen on the slope, it is all bare.

Not only that, on the side of the road that I occasionally passed, I saw refugees lying motionless.

And the further we went, the more and more refugees were lying motionless on the side of the road. It was really frightening to see that people were starving and dying everywhere.

In addition, I also saw the bones of many animals, which should be cattle or mules and donkeys.

There is no need for old man Xu to say this, everyone spontaneously became cautious.

While shocked, everyone was terrified.

Dead people, a lot of dead people.

These people made up their minds to leave their hometowns, and wanted to go to distant lands to find a way out, but in the end they failed to meet the fate of dying on the way. Their corpses were left in the wilderness, their souls fell into a foreign land, and they could not die peacefully.

For a moment, everyone may feel a little sad.

Xu Yinyin's family of four suddenly saw so many dead people, and their hearts were a little heavy. Xu Chunshan and Zhang Xiulan were fine. After all, they traveled to Guangdong in the chaotic era, and they also saw with their own eyes that someone took a knife on the street when they disagreed. Those who cut people have even seen people shooting people.

So you can recover quickly.

But Xu Yinyin is different from Xu Dajun. She grew up under the fluttering red flag. She has never suffered much since she was a child, and she has never been short of food. She has seen dead people before, but this is the first time she has seen such dead people. Too much, so much that it makes people feel numb.

Although it's autumn now, some of these corpses exposed on the ground have been dead for an unknown number of days, and the smell is particularly unpleasant.

The group had no choice but to grit their teeth and quicken their pace, staying away from these.

He went straight for a long distance, and stopped to rest when he reached a forest where no dead people could be seen.

Naturally, other people also thought the same way, so when they stopped in this area, they were surrounded by densely packed refugees. In broad daylight, the few families naturally dared not take out the buns to eat.

Most of the refugees were so weak that they didn't want to move when they fell down, and they stuffed things into their mouths while lying on their stomachs.

A small group of refugees went deeper into the forest, trying to find unpeeled bark.

The family had eaten and drank sneakily during their rest last night, but they can still stand it now, eating mud?Of course it was impossible, so everyone pretended that they had no strength, lying on their backs, closing their eyes and resting.

After resting for about half an hour, I continued on my way.

They have already discussed it, and in the days to come, they will only stop at night to eat, and they will just go on their way during the day.

Although the old man Xu indicated that the family should follow the example of other refugees, don't attract attention.

But their line of business, in the eyes of caring people, is still somewhat different.

Among these groups of refugees, the ones who have been away from home for at least seven or eight days are the ones who have left home without food or drink to make a living. There is no extra energy, the guy who was brought out was forced to walk all the way and throw it all the way, and now he is wearing empty clothes loosely on his body.

But the members of the Xu family are different, their faces are disheveled, and their clothes are loose and sloppy, but they are still pushing a cart with so many guys, which makes people have to take a second look. up.

Interested people have already followed them secretly, but these people don't know each other, they are scattered among the refugees, and they are not tangled up to do anything, but they all pay attention to a few families.

This evening, when we arrived at the campsite, several families settled down according to their positions, and each of them rested. When there was no movement around them, the several families had a tacit understanding, and they did not speak, and each started to eat and drink.

The Xu family rested close together. Old man Xu and Mrs. Xu were in the middle, with the cart behind them. He took out the buns, and handed half of them to everyone one by one.

Everyone got the wowotou and ate silently while lying down without making a sound.

After half of the buns were eaten, Mrs. Xu continued to distribute bamboo tubes, one on the left and one on the right, and everyone drank and passed them down one by one.

One mouthful per person, pass it back after drinking.

These are the tacit understandings experienced in the past few nights, and they know what to do without making a sound.

So are the others.

After eating and drinking, those who should watch the night gathered in the middle and began to sit firmly in the dark night, staring at the movement around them.

Before going to bed, Xu Chunshan and Xu Dajun cooperated with each other to listen to the four directions with their ears and eyes as usual, and felt if there was any abnormal movement around them, and then one would keep watch for the first half of the night and the other for the second half of the night.

If there are other people watching at night, you don't have to sit up and stare at it all the time, you can lie down and take a nap, just stare at the movement for a while.

During the first pass, Xu Chunshan didn't find anything wrong. After the first pass, when he came back to scan in the direction he first scanned, he saw something abnormal.

He hurriedly asked Xu Dajun to listen in that direction.

Xu Dajun didn't hear anything obviously wrong, but only heard a slight sound of friction in that direction, hidden in the night wind, because he couldn't see it, he couldn't be sure if something was wrong.

But Xu Chunshan kept his eyes on that direction, and he could clearly see a dozen figures gesturing in the dark night, crawling towards them.

Getting closer.

Seeing that there was only one mile away, he lay down on a gentle slope, his wolf-like eyes shot towards this side through the trees.

Hungry wolves are dormant, ready to attack their prey at any time.

On their side, the six people who were keeping watch stood shoulder to shoulder in a circle.

Deng Dalang and Zheng Tiechui dozed off with their heads down, snoring heavily.

Xu Chunlin yawned big, and patted his face with his hands to wake himself up.

Zhou Dalang stared left and right for a while, and yawned when he was so tired.

Uncle Zhang was rubbing two mud balls to pass the time, while Er Er Shi was probably disturbed by Zheng Tiehammer's snoring, so he sat with his legs bent, covering his ears with his hands and resting on his knees.

No one noticed anything unusual a mile away.

The hungry wolf didn't notice the danger, and started to move closer to the target.

half a mile away...

Twenty steps away...

near...

coming……

As soon as Uncle Zhang opened his yawn, he was startled by a sharp voice that suddenly sounded in the night, and almost flickered his tongue.

"Someone stole the child!!!"

In the dark night, the sound was like thunder, which woke up all the sleeping people.

When Xu Dajun shouted, Xu Chunshan had quietly approached the edge of their group.

Those people were also startled by the sudden sound, and Xu Chunshan mercilessly swung the hoe over.

So when Xu Dajun's voice fell, there were several more screams.

Uncle Zhang and the others were already awake, so they rushed over to help with the hoe and pole at hand.

Then came Zheng Tiechui and Deng Dalang, and others who were awakened.

The men from several families attacked together, and before the vicious people had time to stretch out their evil claws, they were beaten to the ground and fled.
