Chapter 70 Escape
After eating a steamed bun, Guo Xiu slightly turned her head to look at the man beside her; "I don't want to run for my life at night, let's go to sleep!"

Cao Shi nodded and lay down on the door panel, while Guo Xiu carefully covered him with the blanket.

When Cao Shi fell asleep, she turned around and came in front of Wang Rouhua's mother and son.

"It may be extremely dangerous at night. You must be careful and try not to touch the flood. If you have fabric, make a veil! Take the time to rest and I will guard it."

Wang Rouhua hugged her son and watched Guo Xiu's eyes slowly turn red, she took a deep breath; "Sister Guo, I know you are a good person, in case I..."

Guo Xiu directly interrupted her; "I know what you want to say, I will not agree to you, Tie Dan is already very pitiful, I can no longer live without a mother, no matter how difficult it is, you have to work hard to live, We have survived before, and I believe that this difficulty will also be overcome.”

"Guo sister, don't worry, I won't give up unless it is absolutely necessary."

Guo Xiu looked at the longing for life in Wang Rouhua's eyes, smiled and nodded towards her, turned around and returned to Cao Shi's side.

Guo Xiu left, Wang Rouhua took out half a steamed bun from her bosom and gave it to her son, while she ate two steamed buns in a row. She knew that the night would be extremely dangerous, and all she had to do now was to fill her stomach and preserve her strength so that she could escape at night .

Looking ahead, Bai Chenglin drank half of the gourd's water in a row, shook the gourd and knew it was out of water, and threw the gourd to Guo Xiu.

Guo Xiu refilled his gourd and threw it to him.

Bai Chenglin took it and tied it around his waist, sat cross-legged on the door panel and closed his eyes.

It was almost dark when Cao Shi woke up, so he took out a steamed bun and handed it to Guo Xiu.

"After eating, let's hurry."

In the time Guo Xiu ate one steamed bun, Cao Shi had already eaten three steamed buns.

Half an hour later, it was completely dark.

"Brother Cao, let's go!" Wang Zhong stroked the door and leaned towards them.

"Yeah!" Cao Shi stood up and held the bamboo pole in his hand to draw diagonally forward, while Wang Zhong, Bai Chenglin and his party followed closely behind them.

Today's moonlight is not very good, so it is convenient for them.In the darkness, only Cao Shi, Bai Chenglin, and Wang Zhong could see everything around them clearly. At this time, Guo Xiu and Wang Rouhua seemed to be blind.

When Cao Shi was resting, Wang Rouhua quietly tied the door panels together again, but even so she did not idle, holding the pot and paddling vigorously.

An hour later, Cao Shi suddenly said, "Be careful, we are getting closer to them."

"Well, Brother Cao, be careful that we seem to be getting closer to the hills."

Guo Xiu's heart arose when she heard the conversation between the two. Although she couldn't see anything, she could smell the stench getting stronger and stronger. She knew that they might be approaching the plague people. Hours later, she vaguely seemed to hear someone groaning in pain.At the same time, their speed also slowed down.At this time, a torch was suddenly lit on the surface of the water, and then she heard a person shout: "Here is the man, hurry up!"

Guo Xiu turned around and saw someone chasing them with a torch.

"Brother Cao and those people are catching up, we have to speed up." Wang Zhong said with a serious expression after looking behind him.

"Yeah!" Cao Shi shook the bamboo pole in his hand tightly, and while exploring the surroundings, he paddled forward quickly.

Wang Rouhua lowered her head and paddled vigorously. Hearing the approaching yelling behind her, her whole heart was in her throat.

 The third is about seven o'clock
