I am farming and growing flowers in the ancient martial arts world

Chapter 93
Zhen Xiaomei let out a series of groundhog screams in her heart.Ahhh, she really didn't do it on purpose!But what should I do if I want to go further?

She hesitated, but didn't take away her hand immediately. To her surprise, Yun Zhao didn't take the initiative to withdraw the hand that was held down by her.

The two stood facing each other, and after a moment of silence, Zhen Xiaomei cheekily pretended to be nonchalant, and took Yun Zhao's hand directly.

The moment the two palms faced each other and their fingers intertwined, Yun Zhao's whole body turned red from head to toe. Although Zhen Xiaomei couldn't see his face clearly because of the dim moonlight, but his hand However, Zhen Xiaomei keenly sensed the gradually rising temperature.

This made Zhen Xiaomei feel a little embarrassed, her free hand unconsciously pressed on her chest, trying to slow down her heartbeat that suddenly became faster.

The tense, shy and slightly sweet atmosphere lasted until Zhen Xiaomei let go of her hands and embraced to move the stone that blocked the cave.

She easily lifted the stone and moved it aside, while Yun Zhao stood behind her, quietly clenched the still warm hand that Zhen Xiaomei had held.

The two walked into the cave quietly, and sat together on the temporary bed at the entrance of the cave in tacit understanding.

Yun Zhao gestured to Zhen Xiaomei, signaling her to take a break before dawn.

Zhen Xiaomei was not polite to him, and under Yun Zhao's sneaky attention from the corner of her eyes, she lay down uncomfortably on her back.

Perhaps it was her usual good quality of sleep that played a role, and Zhen Xiaomei didn't toss and turn because of tonight's hand-holding incident.

After lying down for less than 10 minutes, Zhen Xiaomei fell into a deep sleep.

When she opened her eyes again, the sky outside the cave had already shown the slight whiteness at dawn.

Tang Shishi, who had slept all night, had already woken up. At this time, she was busy boiling water, cooking porridge, and heating steamed buns like a hardworking bee.

As for Yun Zhao, he still maintained the posture that Zhen Xiaomei had before falling asleep. Zhen Xiaomei could feel that he was not actually practicing, but was just maintaining this posture to rest his mind with his eyes closed.

Zhen Xiaomei sat up, then raised her hand and patted Yun Zhao's stiff back lightly.

Yun Zhao's ears were slightly red, he tried to calm down, and slowly opened his eyes, "Are you awake?"

Zhen Xiaomei nodded, turned over and got off the bed, "Go to sleep a little longer, you didn't sleep much last night."

When Tang Shishi heard this sentence, her ears perked up.

Zhen Xiaomei didn't notice this at all, she pressed Yun Zhao's shoulder and insisted on making him take a nap.

Yun Zhao couldn't resist her, so he obediently lay down on the simple bed that still had Zhen Xiaomei's body temperature.

Zhen Xiaomei helped him cover the animal skin with satisfaction, and then walked out of the cave with a smile on her face, and went to help Tang Shishi.

She laughed so happily that Tang Shishi keenly felt something was wrong, but even though she was full of curiosity and questions, she never dared to speak, never dared to ask.

Zhen Xiaomei, who was in a good mood, cooked a pot of lily millet porridge for Yun Zhao by herself.

After Yun Zhao got up to wash up after smelling the fragrance, Zhen Xiaomei gave Yun Zhao another big cloak to wear, "Since we want to change our appearance, let's change our clothes and identities as well."

Yun Zhao had no objection.He asked Zhen Xiaomei, "Who are you going to pretend to be?"

"Businessman." Zhen Xiaomei rubbed her chin and explained to Yun Zhao, "It's reasonable for a businessman to travel all over the world. It's not uncommon for a businessman to have money, enough food, and some kung fu."

It is difficult for other characters to combine these four characteristics at the same time. If something happens to them, they may not be able to use them.

Yun Zhao nodded, "Okay, then I'll put on the cloak later."

He and Zhen Xiaomei planned to play a low-level warrior who had developed internal strength. For such a role, wearing a thick fur cloak is enough to keep out the cold.

Unlike Tang Shishi, who has not developed her internal strength yet and is a real rookie, her body is wrapped in layers, she looks like a matryoshka doll, and she looks like a big tumbler o(*￣︶￣*)o
After the two of them changed their appearances, they each put on a big cloak. Only then did Tang Shishi bring breakfast to the cave and share it with Zhen Xiaomei and Yun Zhao.

After eating the warm and simple meal, the three of them quickly cleaned the pots and pans, etc., before continuing to the first stop of their trip, Tonghe County next to Yunlai County.

Tonghe County is a slightly more prosperous county than Yunlai County, and the Liu family who controls Tonghe County is also a little more shrewd than the Shen family who were originally in power in Yunlai County.

Although they don't treat ordinary people as human beings, they pay great attention to the proportion of bullying and oppression, and rarely kill people directly, so although there are many homeless refugees here, the number of orphans is not as good as before There are many counties in Yunlai.

Zhen Xiaomei and the others first went to Tonghe County. After arriving there, Zhen Xiaomei didn't give out money or food immediately. Under the banner of recruiting workers, she walked around among the refugees and orphans in a very low-key manner. .

With no real benefits hanging in front of them, many vigilant refugees did not believe that Zhen Xiaomei was really here to recruit workers.

Only those refugees and orphans who were really desperate and felt that if they and their families did not make changes, they would soon die in the wilderness and be devoured by wild beasts, gritted their teeth and followed Zhen Xiaomei directly.

Zhen Xiaomei roughly counted and found that the refugees who were willing to follow her and those who were not willing to follow her each accounted for about half of the total number of refugees.

As for the orphans she had contacted before, one by one, they all decided to follow her.

The oldest of these orphans is fifteen or sixteen years old, but the youngest is only about three years old. Not only are they all skinny and skinny, but they are also being bullied every day.

When Zhen Xiaomei saw these skinny but wounded children, she couldn't help but secretly gave them some food when they met for the first time.

In any world, children are the most vulnerable group.

In today's world where strength is the most important thing and morality is broken, they have been forced to get used to abuse, getting used to fleeing, and getting used to precarity.

Even though they have forced themselves to be strong, bold, and able to face any changes and injuries, Zhen Xiaomei still subconsciously wants to protect and help them.

Maybe it was because the kindness she radiated was captured by these children, or maybe it was because these children were too eager to get rid of the predicament in front of them. Anyway, when Zhen Xiaomei arrived at the agreed meeting place two quarters of an hour earlier, these children Been waiting for them for a while.

They hid at a distance of about ten meters away from other refugees. Even though they were terribly cold and terrified, they still tried their best to stand calmly instead of using themselves from a distance as before. Dodge and retreat as quickly as possible.
