Chapter 29 OK, listen to you

After a while, Mu Zhihe finished crying, and then said in a hoarse voice, "At that time, everyone was dispersed, and your family lost news. Grandma was very worried and insisted on looking for you. After three days of searching, there was no result."

"I have no choice but to keep going. If someone runs out of food, grab it!"

"If you can't get food, you will rob people!"

"Grandma secretly saves rations every day so that we can eat more, and when they find out...they have already..." Mu Zhihe burst into tears.

"A lot of things happened after that, and my parents also starved to death because they didn't have anything to eat."

"Our uncle and fourth uncle are also separated."

After listening to Mu Zhihe's intermittent narration, Mu Zhixu knew what happened later.

Before being separated, the fourth uncle, sister-in-law and uncle's family were still alive, but, according to the situation at that time, it should be more or less ominous.

Mu Zhihe is the only child of the third uncle's family. She survived because the third uncle and the third aunt saved their rations and hung her life for her.

After being separated, she was lucky and wandered into the mountains, following other refugees towards Xuanwei Mansion.

You can also touch something to eat.

This time she was beaten because she found a handful of mushrooms in the mountains and was discovered before she ate them.

"Zhixu, where's the second uncle and the second aunt?" Mu Zhihe took a look, but couldn't find them.

The eye sockets of Mu Shen and Mu Yuan turned red instantly.

Mu Zhixu sighed, "There was an accident on the road."

Several people fell silent, and the atmosphere on their backs lingered among them.

Gu Lin didn't speak either.

Fate in troubled times is cheap, and they have seen so many ruins and deaths along the way, but they have long since become numb.

After being sad for a while, the few of them tacitly didn't mention it again.

The dead are gone, the living have to look forward.

"Sister Zhihe, let's have a bowl of porridge." Mu Zhixu served Mu Zhihe a bowl of porridge with wild vegetables and yellow rice.

The hot air in the bowl made Mu Zhihe's vision blurry.

She quickly took the bowl and lowered her head to cover it up. Just as she was about to drink porridge, she saw that the bowl was full. She restrained her gaze and raised her head, "Zhixu, it's too much. I'll just take two bites. You have to eat sparingly."

The cousin and the others probably don't have much food, so this bowl of hers, saving a little, is enough for everyone to eat for a day.

"It's okay, you can eat, this is just the first meal, there won't be so much to eat later." Mu Zhixu smiled.

"I really don't need so much. I can hang my life on it. I don't know how long I will go..."

"Sister Zhihe, be obedient!" Mu Zhixu looked at Mu Zhihe!
For some reason, seeing her eyes, Mu Zhihe nodded subconsciously.

By the time he realized it, he was already drinking porridge with a bowl in his hand.

Mu Zhihe: "..." My cousin has become powerful.

Oh no, my cousin is already very good, she is the only literate child in the family.

After eating, Mu Zhihe calmed down completely, and she gave Mu Zhixu the mushroom in her arms.

A few people gossip about family affairs.

Mu Zhixu noticed that her gaze fell on Gu Lin frequently, and smiled, "This is the fiancé-in-law I picked up on the road, Gu Lin."

"Gu Lin, this is my cousin Mu Zhihe."

Gu Lin turned his head and nodded slightly to Mu Zhihe, then withdrew his eyes and taught Mu Shen, Mu Yuan and Mu Zhixia how to read.

Mu Zhihe didn't take it to heart either, she looked at Mu Zhixu with some worry, "Zhixu, he is not an ordinary person, is he reliable? I heard that the sons of rich families are the most deceptive gone."

"Cousin, how do you know that he is the son of a rich family?" Mu Zhixu was a little bit dumbfounded, and knew that the sons of rich families were all liars.

"He can read, and his eyes are different from others."

These days, if the family has no money, if they can support a scholar.

For example, the second uncle's family, just to know that Xu went to school for a few years, the whole family tightened their belts.

Life is tight, and she often sees her father and mother secretly stuffing things for the second aunt.

"I don't know about others, but ah, the person I picked must be reliable, cousin, don't worry." Mu Zhixu glanced at Gu Lin's back and smiled.

She believes in herself.

If it doesn't work, just kill it.

Gu Lin suddenly felt a chill on his back, he touched his nose silently and didn't speak.

Mu Zhihe still had doubts in her heart, but she knew that her cousin was very powerful, so she didn't say much.

Mu Zhihe joined the fleeing team, and they had one more person.

However, they are all half-grown children. If they encounter vicious refugees, they must be the first target.

Of course, Mu Zhixu and Gu Lin are not afraid.

With the addition of Mu Zhihe, Mu Zhi and others are much more relaxed. Although she is not good at fighting, she is very good at taking care of others.

Xia Xia was basically taken over by her.

In her words, she can't eat rice, and Mu Zhihe knows how difficult it is to live in troubled times.

If she meets her relatives, of course she can't sit back and enjoy the benefits.

A group of people walked staring at the scorching sun.

Gu Lin looked at the terrain and said to Mu Zhixu, "There is an intersection not far ahead, to the left is Lingnan, and to the right is southwest."

"Go Southwest!"

The two looked at each other, and the southwest was the place they both chose.

"Let's hurry up and rest later today." Gu Lin looked in the direction of Yongning Mansion, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Well, that's exactly what I mean." Mu Zhixu nodded, and the two of them knew each other.

It is only two or three days away from Yongning Mansion, and there is a high possibility of encountering rebels nearby, so they cannot stay.

Mu Zhihe and the others are used to not asking why.

A group of people walked away sullenly.

The Wu and Zhao families, who had been following them not far or near, noticed that their speed was increasing. Although they didn't understand why, they also subconsciously increased their speed.

They didn't realize that the half-grown boy Du Heng tied his younger sister to his body and quickened his pace to follow.

"vomit!"

At the intersection of three forks, hunger is everywhere, and the refugees passing by here can't help but vomit.

There were corpses on the road too, but they were not as decomposed as the ones here.

These corpses include not only refugees, but also rebels.

Mu Zhixu's expression was indifferent, and she led a few people to choose the road on the right without hesitation, "This way."

She had prepared for it a long time ago, and several of them carried the herbs she gave to them, which diluted the smell of rotting corpses.

After they left, the Wu and Zhao families hesitated at the three-way intersection, and finally they all gritted their teeth and followed Mu Zhixu and the others.

From the hot sun in the sky to the moon and stars, the group couldn't hold on until they stopped.

Fortunately, there was Mu Zhixu's spiritual spring water along the way, which made them walk for so long.

"Drink your saliva first, and eat something to fill your stomach." Mu Zhixu shared a pancake for everyone.

No one can see clearly what they eat.

There is also porridge in the water bag, you can drink a little.

"Let's keep this porridge for Xia Xia and the others, I don't need it." Gu Lin rejected Mu Zhixu's kindness.

"I'm afraid there will be very few opportunities to make porridge in the future, so I will save some more for Xia Xia." He explained.

A smile flashed in Mu Zhixu's eyes, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

 Please take care of the new book, starting from tomorrow, three consecutive days and three updates
