Chapter 49
No matter who it is, life still has to go, and the road ahead is long, Xia Qiyue's most important thing is to be able to bring the two children, younger siblings, to a safe and stable place.
So in the afternoon she went to the blacksmith shop.
When she arrived, the master blacksmith had already knocked out the small iron stove and was trying to light it.
"Are you here? Come and have a look, this stove has been made for you. It's really good. It's convenient and easy to burn. Give me the blueprint we agreed to, and you're not allowed to go back on your word!"
Xia Qiyue smiled, walked over and nodded, "Don't go back on your word, put out the fire, I'll take it away!"
Without wasting time, she waited until the stove was extinguished and the iron cooled down, then she carried the stove out of the blacksmith's shop.
After going to a place where no one was around and putting the stove into the space, I started looking for firewood sellers.
But after walking all over the town, I couldn't find it at all. Finally, I went to the grocery store to inquire, but there was not much charcoal in the grocery store.
Even if it was all rounded by her, it was only enough to make a few meals.
It's better than nothing, she can only go back regretfully, it may be the cause of the drought, everyone thought that no one would spend money to buy firewood, so they didn't bother to sell it.
After returning to the medicine hall, An Laozhuang had already taken away his son's body, leaving only the patriarch's family, but the patriarch's family was also preparing to leave. When An Wang saw Xia Qiyue coming back, he hurried over and spoke.
"Where did you child go? You can't find it everywhere! Get ready to salute and leave quickly. Lizheng came over and said that the county magistrate of Liulin County has detained everyone just as you have heard. Lizheng, they met Lin Xiucai's family who had escaped outside the town, and only then did they learn the news, probably the officials are chasing the escaped refugees!"
What An Wang said was urgent, Xia Qiyue understood, turned around and ran to the room.
An Wang's voice sounded from behind, "I've told your brothers and sisters to pack their bags, come out quickly!"
The family sent four sons to search for Xia Qiyue for a while but couldn't find it, and then told Xia Jiuyue and Xia Xinghe to pack their bags quickly, and they can leave when Xia Qiyue comes back.
When Xia Qiyue ran over, she happened to see her sister who was looking anxiously. Before Xia Jiuyue could speak, Xia Qiyue ran into the room.
Putting the two children into the basket, he urged his younger siblings, "Hurry up and take the salute! Hurry up!"
Affected by their mother's urgency, the two little ones slipped into the back basket, hugged each other tightly and sat down, their nervous eyes terrified.
Fortunately, this basket is big enough, it is a basket for carrying grain during the autumn harvest, and it can accommodate two little guys, otherwise the two little guys will suffer.
Here, Xia Qiyue and the others ran out in a hurry, and after reuniting with the patriarch's family, they hurried out of the town.
And the people in the northern village of the mountain outside the town packed up and saluted after hearing the news about Lin Xiucai's family, waiting to run away.
Lizheng couldn't make up his mind alone, anxiously waiting for the patriarch's family to come back.
As soon as he saw the patriarch's family and Xia Qiyue coming back, Li Zheng hurriedly greeted him, "Uncle patriarch, what should I do?"
The patriarch had already thought about it along the way, "Run to the small road, come in from the forest, and walk over the mountains. There are so many people walking on the road, it is too conspicuous!"
After the two made a hasty decision, they led the villagers and ran towards the path.
Some children who couldn't run were already picked up by adults, while the elderly were supported.
Although he was bitten by a wolf, in the past three days, the wounds that should have scabbed began to scab over, and he was able to run even if he endured it. The only one who couldn't run was Ge Mingyu.
Both of her legs were injured, and she couldn't take care of it properly, and she couldn't drink the medicine. At this time, the wound was so painful that she couldn't walk a few steps, let alone run.
But An Zihao, who looked very serious, was bitten on the back of his arms and chest, and his legs were fine. He was carrying two salutes and running no slower than others.
Only the three or four members of the An family fell behind, and the third An was holding his son and carrying his daughter on his back, and couldn't care about Ge Mingyu at all. Ge Mingyu howled and followed behind with two crutches, taking a step and howling.
But no one in Lao An's family cares about them at all. When it comes to life and death, brothers are nothing.
Xia Qiyue didn't dare to slow down and take a rest, so she followed the patriarch's family. Her legs were thrashing hard, she was sweating profusely, and she was panting heavily. Fortunately, their luggage included only a small iron pot and five bowls besides bedding and two pieces of rags. Outside, otherwise, let alone run away, even if you drag it, you won't be able to walk.
While walking, Xia Qiyue told the other four people not to forget to drink water to replenish their strength. I don't know how long they will run like this.
Each of the five people ate an egg and a steamed bun with water in the morning.
There was no time to eat at noon, and she had been running for almost an hour. Although she slowed down and took a breath during the period, she couldn't stand it.
Looking at the environment here, we have already entered a mountain, and the patriarch told Li Zheng that we have to climb over this mountain.
However, they said that going over the mountain is actually a shortcut. Although climbing the mountain is tiring and dangerous, it is short in terms of distance.
Fortunately, everyone has eaten wolf meat in the past two days, and there is oil in their stomachs, and they have some strength.
But before Xia Qiyue finished rejoicing, a few elderly people behind had already collapsed, waving their hands and opening their mouths, unable to speak at all.
The patriarch met with Lizheng, and his face was a little worried. They were afraid that if they stopped like this, the officials behind would chase after them, but if they didn't stop, they couldn't throw the old man who couldn't keep up in the mountains to feed the wolves.
After thinking about it, the two of them made a decision. Those families with too many males would send one out to carry the old man who couldn't walk on his back, but they had to give some rations or water, so that they couldn't be carried in vain.
When Li was discussing with the patriarch, Xia Qiyue turned around and observed, and found that the old An's family was all there, except for the third child of the An family and Ge Mingyu's family of four.
At first, she could still hear Ge Mingyu's abuse, but she couldn't hear it after running.
But she just turned around to observe, she didn't care about so much.
As soon as they heard that there were rations and water, those who had many sons at home, and those who could afford to move by themselves all sent their sons out. Now, those who are too old to keep up have a way.
Everyone didn't have much time to rest and started running again, but after entering the mountain, there were not so many flat roads to run on. Although there were not many green plants caused by the drought, the dry thorns were still blocking the road.
Climbing while pulling, although the mountain is not particularly steep, it is still extremely difficult.
It wasn't until dark that everyone was exhausted, and Li Zheng and the patriarch couldn't move their legs, so they stopped.
But I couldn't cross the mountain. Fortunately, there is a big cave on the mountainside on the back of the mountain.
Squeezing can squeeze the whole village in, but people have to be next to each other.
Xia Qiyue followed the patriarch's family with quick eyes and hands, and was bound to stay away from Lao An's family.
Squeeze and squeeze is really not literally just squeeze and squeeze.
Although this cave is big, it can't hold more than 300 people in Shanbei Zhuangzi.
In the end, Xia Qiyue was next to the patriarch's family, and only occupied a seat that would be enough for five people to sit, and they had to put it in the back basket to put it down.
