He glanced at the way he came from, and then at the refugees stationed there, he struggled for a moment, and suddenly pulled up his legs and chased after Bai Xia and the others in the direction they left.

"Little girl, please stop"

Seeing the backs of Bai Xia and the others from a distance, he hastily quickened his pace.

"What is he following?" Li Xiuyuan frowned.

The refugee team was headed by Wang Xiucai. Although he could not completely control these refugees, most of the refugees still believed in him because of his leadership in the past few days.

So Li Xiuyuan and Bai Xia chose to remind him.

Hope he can find a better place to take the refugees.

"Is there anything else Mr. Xiucai needs to do?" Seeing that he was really in a hurry, Bai Xia and the two of them stopped.

"Little girl, little brother, how do you two know that this road map is fake?" Wang Xiucai bowed politely.

Bai Xia and Li Xiuyuan looked at each other, and finally Li Xiuyuan stood up and explained: "The elders in my family told me about some scenes in Quanzhou before, but I just feel that this road map seems a little different from what my elders said."

"Plus, the government's actions are a bit strange recently, so I reminded you." Li Xiuyuan's words were neither humble nor overbearing, and he didn't kill the picture as a fake. On the contrary, it made Wang Xiucai even more convinced that there was something wrong with the picture.

If he really said categorically that there was something wrong with this picture, maybe Wang Xiucai would have doubts.

This time it felt awkward.

"Dare to ask little brother, do you know where else to go?" Wang Xiucai continued to ask.

Li Xiuyuan and Bai Xia were both dumb. If they knew where to go, why would they follow the refugee team and snatch their road map.

"Mr. Xiucai, to be honest, we got lost with the adults in our family, and we have never traveled far, so we don't know where is a good place to go now." Li Xiuyuan told the truth, but the reason for getting lost was just made up casually.

Wang Xiucai also remembered now, the first time he saw them, he asked their adults, and he said that there were no adults.

It turned out that he was lost with his family.

"Then I don't know where you two are going?" Wang Xiucai asked.

Li Xiuyuan looked at Bai Xia, actually he didn't know where they were going next!
Bai Xia's plan was very simple, he would still follow the refugee team, but he couldn't let them know that they were following.

They took out thousands of catties of food at one time, and they had already attracted the attention of some people, letting them know that the two of them were at the back of the line, and they were afraid that they would be harassed.

And being targeted by refugees, it is not easy to take out her bed. Instead of doing this, it is better to pretend to leave and follow them secretly, which effectively avoids the ending of being targeted by refugees.

"We're just walking in a random direction, and we don't know where we can go." Bai Xia lied without changing his face, and didn't intend to let Wang Xiucai know their real plan.

Wang Xiucai's complexion changed, and he felt that they were not telling the truth, so he had to force a smile and said, "Then I won't bother you two on your way, thank you for reminding me."

After speaking, he walked towards the refugee team with heavy steps.

"Isn't it a little bad for us to lie to people like this?" Li Xiuyuan felt a little sorry.

Bai Xia glanced at him sideways, and said hehe: "Then where do you think we are going?"

Li Xiuyuan choked, and they didn't know the way. Thinking of this, he lowered his head in embarrassment, unconsciously pinched the sleeves of the cuffs with his fingers, and rubbed them desperately.

Bai Xia glanced at him, it seemed that when he was nervous or anxious, he would subconsciously pinch his cuffs and rub them vigorously.

She herself pinched her cuff with her fingers.

Except for pinching a layer of sand, I didn't feel very relieved.

It's better to catch lice and strangle them to death, that's really decompressing.

Thinking of this, Bai Xia felt his scalp itchy, stretched out his hand to scratch it, and there was a black thing stuck in the nail that he hadn't trimmed in time, and it was still moving.

Bai Xia: ...

Really, she felt that she should save the water first, she couldn't stand this lice hatch for a day.

Bai Xia was about to run away, she didn't care about Li Xiu Yuan, she turned around and left.

As soon as Bai Xia left, Li Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried to follow.

Wang Xiucai returned to the refugee team with a heavy heart. The refugees had already packed their things, found water, and some food, so that these refugees who had already run out of ammunition and food replenished their resources, and they had hope of reaching Quanzhou alive.

"Mr. Xiucai, where are the young master and miss?"

The sharp-eyed refugees saw Wang Xiucai looking for Bai Xia and the others, and greeted him when he came back.

Naturally, Wang Xiucai knew what they were planning, and said calmly, "They're leaving."

"Why did you just leave? I still have a quilt at home, and many old clothes." The old clothes of the poor family are also sewn and sewn, patched and mended. The adults wear them for the baby, and the baby wears them for the next baby.

The tattered clothes have been worn for several years. Except for poor people who can exchange them for something, there has never been a precedent for exchanging money or food.

After finally finding a way to exchange old clothes for food, they tasted a little bit of sweetness, but they were told to leave.

The refugee felt a little regretful at once, regretting why he hadn't exchanged a few more old clothes before.

Wang Xiucai looked in the direction of his house, and saw two five or six-year-old children with only a pair of pants on their bodies, and their slightly dark upper bodies exposed to the sun. He couldn't help but slightly angrily said, "Auntie Chen, the sun is very strong. Your two children will get sunburned if they continue like this."

"They have already left, but there is no way to exchange for food. Let's quickly put on the clothes for the children, we are about to leave soon."

"Today's journey is less than sixty miles, and the officials blame it, but it's a terrible thing."

Wang Xiucai was already very upset, but when he saw that the aunt of the Chen family stripped off the child's clothes and planned to exchange them for food, he couldn't help but speak more seriously.

The aunt of the Chen family took off the child's clothes for the sake of the family's survival. The main reason is that there are not so many old clothes to exchange for at home.

Now that there is no food in exchange, it is natural to take the clothes and go back and dress the children again.

Originally, there were several families who stripped off their clothes like her and were going to exchange food with Bai and Xia. When they heard Wang Xiucai say that they had left, they hurriedly put on the clothes for the children.

With a heavy heart, Wang Xiucai spread out the road map in his hand, his eyes lingered on the word Ganzhou, and finally he closed it forcefully, closed his eyes and opened them again, covering up all the complexity in his eyes.

"The government is so powerful, what can these old and weak women and children do?"

Faintly, he could hear his muttering to himself.

A quarter of an hour later, the refugees had all packed up. They carried water on their backs, pulled on carts, changed their worn-out straw sandals, and headed towards the direction indicated by the road map with hope for the future.

Bai Xia and the others were far away, almost reaching the top of the mountain. Looking at the direction of the refugees below from a distance, they shook their heads and sighed: "It seems that Wang Xiucai still chose to go to Hei by one way."
