When Ke Weijie saw the egg, he shouted happily: "Auntie, give me another one, give me another one!"

Hearing this, Ke Xisheng frowned, and reprimanded: "No one is allowed to eat any more greedy! When are you still making trouble?"

Ke Weijie curled his lips, obediently took the egg and ate it with his head down.

Although Hong'er and Zhu'er were young, they were very sensible. They noticed that the expressions of the adults were not right, so they sat obediently on the ox cart and ate eggs quietly.

"Uncle Shuisheng, where are we going?" Tongsuo asked while eating an egg.

"By the way, the shopkeeper's letter!" Ke Hanxue stuffed the egg into her mouth, opened the wooden box and took out the letter.

Ke Hanxue read the letter quickly, and then excitedly said to his father: "Father, the shopkeeper told us to go to Qingzhou to find Mr. Ge, and there is an address on it."

"Xue'er, when did you know how to read?" Ke Shuisheng and the others looked at him suspiciously.

"Ah?" Ke Hanxue was taken aback for a moment, then said with a sneer: "Young Master Ge taught it."

"Oh!" When everyone heard that it was Ge Yunzhang who taught her how to read, they no longer doubted it.

"Okay, let's take a break, then let's go." Ke Shuisheng said.

"Mother, I'm thirsty!" Zhu'er said to Ke Jiangshi with her little face up after finishing her eggs.

"Be patient for now." Ke Jiangshi hugged her daughter tightly, and said softly, now that everyone is running for their lives, they dare not let everyone delay their journey for their daughter.

"Zhu'er, you wait, sister Xue'er is going to find water for you." Ke Hanxue said, picked up the two small jars prepared in advance and got off the ox cart, then turned back and said to Ke Hanchun and Tongsuo's wife in the car: "Sister, sister-in-law, you are inconvenient. After sitting in the car all day, get out of the car and take a walk. It will make you feel better if you stretch."

"Yes, Chun'er, Tongsuo's daughter-in-law, get out of the car and take a walk." Ke Mengshi also said.

Ke Hanxue smiled, turned around and went to find water.

"Xue'er, you have to be careful." Ke Jiangshi shouted worriedly.

"I'll go too, fetch more water, and everyone will drink some later." Ke Baosheng said and took two bowls and chased after Ke Hanxue.

The two of them saw a small river within a short distance. They fetched water and went back to the ox cart, where they each drank a bowl.

After eating and drinking enough, everyone started to drive again. Because of the goal, Ke Shuisheng also had the energy to drive the car.

After walking for several miles, it was completely dark. The mountain road was not easy to walk, and we couldn't drive overnight.

Ke Hanxue poked her head out of the car and found that the ox cart was parked at the foot of a mountain.

Everyone saw four or five families at the foot of the mountain from a distance, and there were several animal skins hanging outside their houses. Ke Hanxue guessed that these families should be hunters.

Orion's family has dogs, and when they hear a stranger coming, they all bark.

As soon as the dog barked, the door of the house was opened, and a few strong men came out from inside, each holding a fork in their hands, with cautious expressions on their faces, and only let down their guard when they saw Ke Shuisheng and others.

"Who are you, why did you come to this deep mountain and old forest? It's very dangerous here!" One of the men asked with a frown.

When the strong men came out, Ke Shuisheng got out of the car, walked towards them, and asked them respectfully: "Brothers, our family is going to seek refuge with relatives. It's too late and I want to borrow a convenience to stay overnight, I don't know if I can make a convenience?"

Several burly men looked at each other, all seemed a little embarrassed, an older man said: "I'm afraid our house won't be able to accommodate so many of you?"

"Big brother, as long as you can make room for us, so that the two able-bodied children in the car can have a place to sleep, we will just spend the night in this bullock cart." Ke Shuisheng said hastily.

After discussing in a low voice with several strong men, they made a decision and said, "That's fine, we'll make room for you."

While his father was talking with those big guys, Ke Hanxue also carefully observed those big guys. It can be seen from their words and deeds that they are not bad-hearted, so Ke Hanxue let everyone here at ease Stay overnight.

Don't blame Ke Hanxue for being supercilious, so many of them fled, and they brought a lot of food in the car. It is inevitable that they will encounter some evil-minded people who are greedy for petty gains and steal the food.

Throwing away these foods is a trivial matter, and I am afraid that some ruthless villains will kill people because of these foods.

Hearing that they were willing to take them in, Ke Shuisheng and Kong Dafu hurriedly pulled the ox cart over.

"Brother, this is a deep mountain and old forest, wild beasts often come and go, you must be careful!" Another strong man told Ke Shuisheng.

"Father, I'm afraid!" Ke Weijie hugged Ke Xisheng's arm in fear when he heard the beast.

"Mother, I'm afraid too!" Zhu'er shrank timidly into Ke Jiangshi's arms, and Qin'er looked around in horror with her big black eyes.

Only Hong'er asked the big man curiously: "Uncle, what does the beast look like?"

The big man was startled, then laughed loudly: "This doll is really interesting!"

"Idiot, beasts want to eat people, I don't even understand that!" Ke Weijie gave Hong'er a contemptuous look.

"Jie'er!" Ke Xisheng scolded lightly, and Ke Weijie closed his mouth.

Those big men went back to the house and called out their daughter-in-law and children, and helped to vacate a room. Then the women and children went back to the house. Handed something like a crossbow to Ke Shuisheng, and confessed: "Brother, we have set up traps around here, but you still have to be careful, it's best not to sleep too deeply, if there is any movement, you must call us, we know ?"

"Understood, thank you big brother!"

"Mother, the child's mother, Ke Jiangshi, you can take the child into the house, and we men can just watch outside." Ke Shuisheng said to Ke Mengshi and the others.

"Okay, then you have to be careful." Ke Mengshi was very scared after hearing what those big men said.

"Mother, we will be careful." Ke Baosheng said with a smile.

Ke Hanxue went into the house to help a few people get together, found out a thin coat of his father, opened the door and went out.

"Xue'er, why don't you sleep?" Ke Shuisheng said with a frown.

Ke Hanxue smiled, and put the coat on his father: "Father, the night in this mountain is a bit cold, don't freeze."

"Okay, go into the house and go to sleep." Ke Shuisheng smiled heartily.

"Father, I can't sleep, so let me stay with you outside!"

"It's dangerous outside, go back to the house!" Ke Shuisheng said with a straight face.

"Father, if it's dangerous, I should stay here with you."

Ke Shuisheng was about to reprimand her, but Ke Baosheng received a signal from Ke Hanxue, and hurriedly said: "Brother, since Xue'er can't sleep, let her stay outside, so many of us are here, what are you afraid of? "
