Chapter 226 One Hundred and Sixty-six Refugees Influx (2)
"Xiao Ran, I'm thinking that everything is extremely dry now. I heard that there is water in Beifeng Qingmu country. We want to go there and have a look. The wells at home are almost dry." Aunt Ma sighed Tone, there are several children in the family, and my heart aches from thirst every day.

"Aunt Ma, even if you go to Qingmu Country, the journey will take a month, and there is no water along the way, how do you get there with so many refugees?" Li Ran asked a question.

Aunt Ma thought for a while, "I know, but I can't wait to die here, you see, there is no water in the stream on the mountain, and there are many pheasants dying of thirst by the stream."

It hasn't rained for more than two years, what should I do?

Li Ran was a little hesitant, whether to tell the story of the deep mountain.

At this time, Wu Shan ran in, "Ma'am, it's not good, the refugees have entered the village, they are already in the next village, and many people have been injured." Wu Shan was sweating, terrified.

"What?" Aunt Ma was also frightened and fell down on the chair.

"There is no water in the next door village. I don't know where I heard that there is water in Qingxi Village. As soon as the refugees entered the village, they searched for food and drink. Many villagers were beaten to the ground to keep their rations. "Wu Shan said: "We'll be in our village later, madam, let's go."

"What's wrong?" Su Bai came out from behind holding Su Ran.

Li Ran quickly said everything.

"Let's leave first, those refugees won't be reasonable." Su Bai still remembered those refugees who robbed grain stores in the capital, and they used all means to get food and drink.

"Well, Wu Shan, go and tell the people in the house, the old house, and the village head's family not to take anything." Li Ran turned to Aunt Ma and said, "Aunt Ma, go back and clean up quickly, call Aunt Shanglin and The third mother-in-law's family, I have a place to hide, come quickly, is there enough time for a stick of incense?"

"Enough is enough, I'll go back right away." Aunt Ma ran outside as soon as she heard that.

"Aunt Wu, go and call all the workers to gather in the main room by the waterfall." After Li Ran finished speaking, she took the child to the main room, quickly packed her clothes, locked the money, and locked the door it is good.

The people Li Ran called were all his family members who had a good relationship with him, and there were 200 people he bought.

After a stick of incense.

"Xia Yu, where's your Liu Ming?" Li Ran saw that Xia Yu was playing with Su Jin and the others in the yard with two children. The five little guys didn't know the situation, but they were still having fun.

"It's in the back, together with parents and elder brothers." Xia Yu replied.

"Okay, uncles, you are here, is there anyone who is not here, Aunt Ma, three mothers-in-law, have all your family members arrived?" Li Ran asked.

"It's all here." Several people said after taking a few glances.

"Uncle Wu, you lead the way." Li Ran said to Wu Shan.

"Okay, ma'am." After speaking, Wu Shan moved a pot of withered bonsai and opened the downward passage. "Everyone follow me."

Several families followed Wu Shan into the passage.

"Su Ji, Xiao Heng, you carry Su Jin and they go down first." Su Bai called out to Su Ji who was beside him, then turned to Li Ran and said, "You go down first, I'll come later."

"Let's go together, they will close the door." Li Ran said.

"I have to move the bonsai back. Only I know the secret door in the house. Don't worry, I'll be there soon. Let's go." Su Bai said and pushed Li Ran in.

Li Ran glanced at Su Bai, turned around and walked forward without saying anything.

The rest of the people also followed slowly, and in the end only Su Bai and Liu Ming were left.

"Have the gates been closed?" Su Bai asked.

"It's all closed, and the key is released." Liu Ming replied. "Every yard is locked."

"Okay then, let's go." Su Bai moved the bonsai back and entered the hall of the main room.

An hour later, Li Ran, who had already arrived at the villa by the lake, looked at the entrance anxiously. Why hasn't this person arrived yet?
"Ma'am, don't worry, the master will be there soon." Aunt Wu reassured.

"Hmm. Are the rooms all allocated?" Li Ran asked.

"It has been divided. The main building is reserved for the wife and the master, as well as the two young masters and the young lady. The one next to it is reserved for Young Master Li and the others, and the one outside is reserved for the people in the old house. The rest live at the foot of the mountain. The dormitory area." Aunt Wu said.

"it is good."

Li Ran stood by the lake, looking at the dozen or so children playing on the shore, Su Ran was shoved aside tremblingly, Su Jin and Su Mo quickly supported her sister, the scene was harmonious.

"Xiao Ran, how did you find this place? It's so beautiful." Aunt Ma, Zhu Xiaohua, and uncle Ma all came over.

"I discovered it by accident." Li Ran said.

"It is said that Xiao Ran is blessed. Look, she has discovered such a good place."

"That's right, you don't have to be scared every day here."

"Well, I hope it rains soon so we can go home."

"This drought has been so long, if it rains, there may be another flood, another disaster."

"That's right, for God's sake."

……

Li Ran didn't listen much, and kept staring at the entrance worriedly until the familiar figure appeared.

Li Ran stood like this, watching that person walking towards him.

There was some dust on his body, Li Ran carefully patted it off, "Did you go into the chimney?"

Su Bai smiled, "How do you know?"

"Of course I know."

The two walked side by side towards the children and led the children back to the house.
