Dongdong was small due to long-term malnutrition. He might have come out in a hurry, or he might have carried the chief on his back, so he didn't bring anything with him.

His eyes were full of fear, fearing that Qin Yao would not want him and drive him away.

"Sister, I...I want to follow you."

"Okay, then Dongdong will follow."

He was not walking fast, it was raining heavily, and the road was not easy to walk. Qitian himself was still a child, so Qin Yao asked Chu Cheng to hold him.

Dongdong was a little reluctant and wanted Qin Yao to hug him, but Chu Cheng turned cold.

"If you don't need to be carried, you can walk alone. Don't blame us if you get lost."

When Dongdong heard this, he wanted to cry again.

Qin Yao glared at Chu Cheng, "Don't scare him, he is still a child."

"I was already hunting when I was his age."

"I know you are the best."

Qin Yao smiled.

After receiving praise from his woman, Chu Cheng was in a good mood and hugged Dongdong without saying anything else.

Chu Cheng took them away from the river and walked sideways along the mountainside.

Everyone took a short rest when they were tired. Qin Yao studied civil engineering and naturally knew some about natural disasters.

She took advantage of everyone's break to stand on a high place and look out. In the woods not far away, birds and animals were scurrying around, and the animals were making unusual noises.

It was clear that a flash flood was coming.

"We need to quickly find an open place to stay, away from flash floods."

It must be before dark, otherwise it will be difficult for everyone to travel.

"Ah."

Chu Cheng was very familiar with this area and continued on his way after everyone had rested.

Towards the afternoon, they finally reached their destination.

"The conditions are poor now and it's raining. The men are looking for some sticks and leaves to build a shed, and the women are taking a break."

Chu Cheng assigned the tasks to everyone, and soon the men began to work.

Just as they were setting up a shed and preparing to take shelter from the rain and eat some food, they heard a "boom, boom, boom" sound in the distance.

It sounds like water and thunder in the sky.

Everyone ran out in the rain to take a look, and saw a flash flood rushing from a distance in the direction of their tribe in the east. The mountain collapsed instantly, stones rolled down the mountain, and the river rushed. In less than a moment, the entire Songyan tribe was flooded by the flash flood. Fill it up.

In an instant, everyone showed shocked expressions.

The place Chu Cheng found was very good. He could see the entire Songyan tribe at a glance, but it was precisely because of this that they could see their homeland being destroyed.

The old people and children all cried.

Some were grateful that they had escaped and were not washed away by flash floods.

But such a scene was so shocking to them that they will never forget it.

Qin Yao is no exception.

Her face was pale. There were so many people, and she didn't know how many chances of survival there were.

"Fortunately, we listened to Chu Cheng, otherwise none of us would be able to escape now!"

"No, if they don't run away when they have time, their lives will be in vain!"

"Oh, so pitiful, so pitiful!"

When something like this happened, Chu Cheng had no way to go back and rescue them immediately. He could only settle down the current people.

Basically, all the people who came out were from the same family, and the men of the family built sheds for their families.

Chu Cheng also set one up for Qin Yao.

"The conditions here are not good. Let's make do with it for now."

Qin Yao nodded.

Chu Cheng wiped the rain off her body with an animal skin, put on a clean animal skin, and asked her to stay inside and not go out anywhere. "But you..."

"I'm fine, a little rain is nothing to me."

On the contrary, she had walked for a whole day and basically been soaked in the rain. He was afraid that she would get sick.

Dongdong stood outside, wanting to go in with Qin Yao, but when he saw that the person coming out was Chu Cheng, he hesitated.

Chu Cheng naturally didn't want this dead child to disturb him and Qin Yao, so he left him to Qi Tian.

Although Qi Tian was dissatisfied, he still accepted him.

Chu Cheng went out for a tour, and after seeing that everyone was settled, he returned to the shed.

Apart from being able to keep out the rain, everything else here is wet, and even a fire can't be lit.

When Qin Yao saw Chu Cheng coming back, she also asked him to change into clean clothes quickly.

After he changed, he heard Qin Yao sneezing several times. He frowned tightly and quickly held Qin Yao in his arms, using his own body temperature to warm her.

The weather got colder after the rain. Chu Cheng touched Qin Yao's hand, which was cold, and held her tighter. He also put his feet on his stomach to keep her warm.

After Qin Yao's hands and feet were warmer, he let her eat some food.

"I don't know what happened to them?"

Qin Yao is also worried, after all, it is human life.

"It won't help if we go back to rescue them now. We can only go back after it stops raining."

Qin Yao knew that after all, it was not safe for them to go back now.

"I don't know how long it will rain."

Qin Yao also looked sad.

"Don't think so much. It's dark now. We've been walking for a day, so we need to rest quickly."

Qin Yao had no extra energy to think about anything else, and soon fell asleep in Chu Cheng's arms.

Chu Cheng brought the animal skin with him when he came out, and Qin Yao covered her with it after she fell asleep.

But in the middle of the night, he found that Qin Yao was sweating coldly and kept shouting that she was cold. He touched her body with his hand and found that her body was frighteningly hot.

"Yaoyao! Yaoyao!"

Chu Cheng called several times, but Qin Yao didn't answer him.

Chu Cheng suddenly became anxious.

After a day of rain, she was still sick.

Fortunately, he brought some medicinal materials with him when he came out. After chewing them, he fed them to Qin Yao.

He wiped the sweat off her body with the animal skin again and again, and when she felt more comfortable, he used his own body temperature to warm her.

Qin Yao was in a daze. She knew she was sick, but she had no strength and couldn't even open her eyes.

She was ill for two days, during which she couldn't eat anything and lost a lot of weight. Chu Cheng was so distressed that he wanted to get her something delicious, so he went out in the rain to get her bird eggs. , by the way, see where there is dry wood to make a fire.

Fortunately, Chu Cheng was lucky. Not only did he dig out the bird eggs, he also found dry firewood. He was afraid that it would get wet on the way back, so he made a fire on the spot and roasted a few bird eggs for Qin Yao to take back.

When Qin Yao fell asleep after eating, Chu Cheng heard someone calling him outside. He frowned, kissed Qin Yao on the forehead and walked out.

When he saw it was Qi Ying, his face instantly turned cold.

"Is something wrong?"

Qi Ying didn't look too good, but her heart still beat a little fast when she saw Chu Cheng.

"I...I heard that Qin Yao is sick. Can you give me some medicinal materials you brought here? I don't feel very well either."

"Your man has no medicine?"

"He...he didn't bring..."

Qi Ying was indeed sick. Her man came out in a hurry and didn't bring any medicinal materials. She knew that Chu Cheng had been taking care of the sick Qin Yao these days, and her man would not only care about the child in her belly, but also eat or sleep. She wasn't even noticed to be sick.

She also wanted to take advantage of her illness to talk to Chu Cheng for a while. (End of chapter)
