Chapter 32

Jingli led the mule cart. She thought that the apocalypse had tempered her cold heart, but now she still felt a little uncomfortable facing these people.

Only then did we reach the top of the mountain, and then we had to walk down the mountain. Not to mention there were springs on this mountain, and there were very few green trees. But would there be water when we got to the bottom of the mountain?

Jing Zhenghai couldn't stand listening to the children crying from behind: "Let's give them something to eat and drink first, and then go find water after we go down the mountain. We can't make the baby cry until we get down."

"We adults can endure it for a while, but our little ones have tender small intestines and can't endure it, so let's just give them some for now."

The adults then gritted their teeth and took out small pieces of dry food and fed the babies to the water. They told them to drink less water as your brothers and sisters didn’t have to drink it yet!
The older children could only look at their younger siblings helplessly, licking their chapped lips and not daring to say a word. They were also so thirsty and hungry!
Jingli walked for most of the day and felt as if her legs were filled with lead. It was difficult to move even one step, and blisters had formed on the soles of her feet.

Su Shi was already in a shaky state. She was not in good health to begin with. Years of hard work had drained her body. Jingli raised her for half a year. She finally got better, but she had to start fleeing again. .

Jingli asked Su in a low voice: "Auntie, have you eaten?"

Mrs. Su quietly replied to her: "After eating, you made just one pancake, and no one saw it. We also brought enough water, so we can drink it for two days without any problem."

Jingli glanced at Dalang again, and Dalang nodded without leaving any trace, indicating that his brothers had all eaten.

Jingli felt relieved, she was so tired!In the previous life, when working with teammates, everyone had a clear division of labor and did not need to worry about each other's food, drink, life and death, but now they have to take care of the food, drink and safety of the whole family.

We only reached the foot of the mountain when it got dark. Taking advantage of the moonlight, the group rested at the foot of the mountain.

Zhao Orion took a few boys to find water. General Wang Tou patrolled the area and asked a few young people to guard the area.

Jing Ye and San Lang returned from finding some firewood nearby. Fat Aunt and Mrs. Su set up the pot. The aroma of corn porridge slowly spread, attracting several children to look over.

Many people cut the semi-dried meat into small cubes and added some whole grains and dried wild vegetables. Gradually, it became slightly meaty, which made the kids very happy.

Before Jingli picked up the porridge and drank it, she heard a scream. Jingli and Dalang quickly put down their bowls and rushed over.

Dalang rushed there and turned his back. It turned out that Lan'er, the granddaughter of Mrs. Ge's family in the village, and Xiaosu, the daughter-in-law of Widow Qin's family, were going to have a convenience. They met two men who wanted to rob the girl.

Xiao Su had already stood up, and Lan'er had just fastened her belt when someone covered her mouth and tried to carry her away. Lan'er struggled desperately, with her shoulders exposed, and Da Lang turned around in embarrassment when he saw this.

Jing Li swung her knife at the man who was snatching Lan'er while shouting at Da Lang: "What time has it been? You still have time to take care of that."

Dalang couldn't care less and rushed forward with a knife, but he gestured left and right and didn't dare to make a move. When the other man saw that Dalang didn't dare to make a move, he stretched out his hand to grab the knife in Dalang's hand. Jingli's hands were quick and he slashed it with a knife. , and chopped off all five of the man's fingers.

Dalang's face instantly turned pale with fright, Lan'er and Xiao Su were so frightened that they almost fainted. The remaining man shouted, and several more men came behind him.

Dalang saw that there were many people on the other side, so he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes before slashing at the people.

"Open your eyes and pay attention to the left and right behind you. If you don't chop them to death, they will kill my mother and the others later!"

Jingli swung the knife while teaching Dalang a lesson. Dalang turned pale and slashed left and right. He hit a lot of wild animals, but they were not human!
Lao Wangtou also hurriedly brought people over. After all, he was someone who had been on the battlefield, and his killing spirit was unmatched by others.The men in the village also joined in, and the situation suddenly turned one-sided towards Jingli. Seeing that he was no match, the men there abandoned their companions and ran away.

When Lao Wang cleaned up, three of them were dead and two were left. One had his fingers cut off by Jingli, and the other had his leg injured.

Jing Zhenghai was also very frightened. Although he was the patriarch of this large family, he had stayed in the village for decades. The farthest he had ever been was the county town. He had never seen such a scene.

Lao Wangtou left two people behind to question them. They were all born in the same village. Lao Wangtou threatened them with a kitchen knife. Without much effort, the two of them talked about pouring beans through a bamboo tube.

Everyone was stunned when they heard it. It turned out to be Xiangshui Village, not far from Jingjia Village.

It was the Xiangshui Village where Old Mrs. Jing wanted to marry Jing Li earlier. However, these two people had gone to the city to work as servants for a long time and did not stay at home. Xiangshui Village was further away than Chenjia Village, so naturally the people in the village were also Don't recognize it.

After the city was broken, the master's family fled, and they fled in horse-drawn carriages. Naturally, these young men in the outer courtyard who had not entered the master's eyes were left behind.

After these two people couldn't help but leave the city in a hurry, they were caught by the refugees from a neighboring county. When their lives were at stake, they took them back to rob their own village.

When Jing Zhenghai heard this, his beard trembled with anger: "Beasts! Beasts! You are still not human! You actually lead outsiders to rob one of your own!"

The man with the broken finger knelt down and kowtowed: "Uncle, please do a good job and spare me. I don't want to. If I don't take them with me, they will kill me!"

The people around him were also filled with indignation and said: "This kind of beast, his mother should have thrown him into the pain of urination and drowned him after giving birth, so as not to harm others!"

"No, that dog knows how to protect his own family, but this heartless dog actually brings people back to harm his own relatives."

"You bitch who was struck by lightning, I told you not to learn well!" An old lady came over with a cane and beat her on the head and face, causing the two people to cover their heads and arms.

The old lady is Lan'er's biological mother, Mrs. Ge. This Mrs. Ge is different from other old ladies in the village. She was born as a maid to a girl from a wealthy family.

It is said that when she was young, she was smart and pretty, and her thoughtfulness made girls like her. It is said that Lan'er looked like her, and just by looking at Lan'er, you can tell what Mrs. Ge looked like back then.

It's a pity that the girl married an old man who lived in love with flowers and willows. The old man fell in love with Mrs. Ge and asked for her.

The girl said that a virtuous man should rely on his husband, but turned around and assigned Mrs. Ge to a farmer in the village, who was Lan'er's grandfather, Jing Laowang.

Jing Laolian was weak and cowardly. He was nearly thirty years old and had not yet married a wife. Naturally, he was very fond of Mrs. Ge, a lovely wife who fell from the sky.

Mrs. Ge accepted her fate and thought of living happily with Jing Laowen, but she didn't know that her parents-in-law found fault with her all the time when they saw her beauty. Jing Laowen heard this too much and started beating her and scolding her too.

After Mrs. Ge's first child was beaten and killed by Jing Laowang, all her anger was ignited in despair.
