On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Chapter 36 Sacrifice yourself
  "Anyway, without Brother Ye, this matter wouldn't have been possible. Brother Ye and his family will definitely go in."

"I agree with this."

Ye Hongchang said, "As long as I can still think of a way, I will bring everyone in and I will never live alone."

Although he was almost the one who came up with ideas along the way, any decision needed to be implemented jointly by everyone. Wasn't it because he couldn't do without the help of the villagers that he temporarily suppressed his hatred for Gou Yi?

Now that he has a way out, he will not give up his companions easily.

Ye Shaodong said, "Second brother, how about we change the route and try to go to Da Zhao?"

This proposal was immediately rejected, "No, although there may be a chance to go to Da Zhao, but the journey is far away, and we have exhausted all our energy here. How can we have the energy to go to Da Zhao again? Our bodies can't bear it."

Most of the people in this group were old, weak, women and children, and they really couldn't afford to deal with it.

For a while, there was a deadlock again.

Ye Hongting said, "In my opinion, those who are young and strong should not go in first. You can think of other ways. These fifty places cannot be wasted. Who knows whether they will regret it tomorrow? We have to make a decision today."

The others did not speak, but Ye Hongting said, "I am willing to stay. I am young and I believe I will not die if I live outside."

Hearing this, Ye Shaodong also raised his hand, "I'll stay too, I'm not afraid of death, as long as you take good care of my family."

As soon as the two of them took the lead, several young men in the village had this idea.

Ye Hongchang said, "Don't be impulsive. Let me think about it for one more night. Maybe I can come up with some ideas."

Ye Shaodong said, "What else can you do? It's not easy for you to get these fifty places. If it were so easy to get in, how could there be so many refugees outside?"

"Yes, second brother, I know you have good intentions and don't want to give up on us, but there is nothing we can do if we don't give up now. We can't just waste it all here, right?"

"As long as you take good care of our family, I can feel at ease even if I die."

Speaking of this, everyone shed tears.

Ye Hongchang was afraid that everyone would be impulsive, so he raised his voice and said, "Don't worry, wait until daybreak. Let's rest now."

It was late at night, and everyone seemed to be lying down to rest, but few could sleep.

Zhou was tired from the journey and was pregnant. She leaned on Ye Hongshun and fell asleep soon.

Ye Hongshun looked down at his wife's face, reached out and touched it, and then made up his mind.

He put Zhou down and quietly went to where Ye Hongting slept.

"Brother Hongting, are you asleep?"

Ye Hongting didn't fall asleep at all. He turned over and said, "What's the matter?"

Ye Hongshun said in a low voice, "I agree with what you proposed today. I am willing to leave and give the opportunity to others to enter. My wife is pregnant and she has to go in. I will take her place."

Hearing this, Ye Hongting immediately sat up and asked, "Are you willing to leave?"

"Yes." Ye Hongshun knew how the fifty places were obtained, so he also understood that the second brother could not think of any other way. He did not want to make the second brother continue to be in trouble.

"Do you want to go? Let's go together."

Ye Hongting nodded, "I do. I think Brother Ye will take good care of my family."

"My second brother will definitely do it." Ye Hongshun felt a little uncomfortable, "There is really no other way. He will even stay outside by himself and let others in."

The two of them discussed it and went to find Ye Shaodong again. When the others gradually fell asleep, they called a total of twelve young men.

Although everyone is reluctant to leave their families, they also know that there is nothing they can do now.

They are young and strong, and even if they are temporarily unable to get in, they can still think of ways to survive, which is better than letting so many people suffer. Song Mingchang was a little worried, "Hongshun, will your family really take good care of my parents?"

Ye Hongshun said, "Brother Mingchang, if you still can't believe in my brother's character this whole way, then just don't follow me, you stay."

Song Mingchang made up his mind, "No, I am willing to leave. My parents are old and they must go to Dayan. There are three of us in the family and we cannot all go in. I should go."

Everyone stood in the forest and counted the remaining people. There were fifty-three.

I really can't find the right one.

After going to Dayan to settle down, there must be someone to do things, and we can't take away all the young people.

Ye Hongshun gritted his teeth, "I believe in my second brother. I hope I can bring in three more."

At midnight, Ye Hongshun left with the remaining eleven people, crossing the river to go to Da Zhao to look for opportunities.

After they left, Meng Tianlang flew down from the tree, lay back and closed his eyes to rest.

It was almost dawn, and everyone woke up from their dreams. They didn't sleep well that night.

Still unable to think of a way, Ye Xiangxiang lowered his head, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Everyone packed their things, but Zhou didn't see where Ye Hongshun was and was a little confused.

"Mom, where did Hongshun go so early in the morning?"

Mrs. Wang was also looking for someone everywhere, but she hadn't found her youngest son yet. She heard someone next to her say, "Where is Hongting?"

"Oh, my Wang Ming is also missing."

"Mingchang, Mingchang, where are you?" Song Zhiyuan was very anxious and shouted several times.

Everyone became confused, and after a while someone said, "Village Chief, many people are missing. What's going on?"

Ye Hongchang already had a guess in his mind, but he couldn't say it out loud.

These boys sneaked away in the middle of the night. Where are they going to find them now?

Ye Xiangxiang pursed her lips, and Meng Tianlang said from behind her, "Your third uncle and the others left last night."

Ye Xiangxiang turned around and said, "Gone? Where did you go?"

"I don't know." Meng Tianlang looked calm, "They probably thought they were young and could think of other ways, so they left first."

Ye Xiangxiang was so anxious that he yelled at him, "So you just watched them leave?"

Meng Tianlang said, "I don't want them to leave either, but what else can I do now? Poison the military camp again? Are you afraid that you won't die fast enough?"

"My grandfather has used his last resort, but he can still only get you fifty places. Do you think there is any other way?"

Ye Xiangxiang's eyes were filled with tears, "I want to find them."

"Go, find them all and cry together. If I were you, I would take good care of their families and look for them after I have established a firm foothold. Now that a large number of refugees are pouring in, Dayan cannot open the city gates. If you want to lose this last chance, then I won’t stop you.”

Ye Xiangxiang turned his back to him, tears streaming down his face.

She hated Meng Tianlang for being ruthless. He knew they were leaving last night but didn't stop them. He really let people leave.

There are dangers everywhere now. How can we survive without the team?
  But she hated Meng Tianlang even more for being right. This was indeed the best solution. This feeling of powerlessness that she struggled with but couldn't get over made her exhausted.
