The wicked girl

Chapter 24 Escape to Hongdu
There are fine raindrops floating in the sky, looking up along the rain, everything that comes into view is a piece of thin ink.

There was a boundless quagmire beneath her, and the more she struggled, the more she sank into it.The muddy muddy water was mixed with many things that could no longer be seen as they were, floating over and sinking... Ye Kui struggled desperately, she couldn't die, she couldn't die here!Xiaoshu must still be waiting for her, she must not just die here.

She struggled and suddenly caught something slippery with her hand.

Through the mud sticking to her eyelashes, she threw the thing far away with an "ah".It was a snake, a writhing mountain snake...

The sticky mud piled up beside her, her movements became slower and slower, and her body became more and more tired.Sure enough, I'm really going to die here...

Suddenly, there was a shrill cry from nowhere.

"Sister-"

Ye Kui broke free from the nightmare abruptly, half sat up with his hands supported, sweating profusely.There were countless strange smells in her nose, and she gasped heavily.Fortunately, it was just a dream, just a dream... After panting for a while, she regained her strength and looked around at the bonfire burning in the middle of the ruined temple.

There seem to be more people.

A bunch of unkempt people crowded into this narrow dilapidated temple, and everyone seemed exhausted and frightened to the limit.Ye Kui knew that she was no different from them at this moment, the clothes on her body were still the one she wore when she escaped from Ding's house, and now she couldn't see its original appearance.

At this stage of the field, no one cares about other than survival.

Ye Kui looked at Chi Po, who was sleeping soundly beside her, and fell down again dejectedly.

Half a month ago——

The sound of collapses was endless, the heavy rain continued, and the screams of beasts in panic came from Xining Mountain from time to time.

The smell of corruption lingered around the body, and Ye Kui got up from the mud flow with her eyes swollen and painful, her back was sore and itchy.When she fell down, her back just hit the stone beside her. If it wasn't for her quick movements, she might have difficulty even standing at this moment.

Ye Kui gave a wry smile, and let the rain wash away the mud on his face.

After a while, the rain gradually subsided.Ye Kui wiped her face and looked around.However, the scene in front of her was really shocking. She was clearly standing on the ridge of the field, and even though she was pushed out some distance, she was still in the field.But what caught her eyes at this moment was like a vast ocean of mud...

Totally ruined!
She suddenly became a little dazed, struggling to see where Ding Duofu's family was.But I couldn't see clearly, my eyes seemed to be congested, and everything around me looked blurry.But Ding's place is far away from Xining Mountain, so it shouldn't be too serious.But Chi Po... If the bamboo forest is destroyed, Po Chi may be trapped in it and cannot get out!
When a catastrophe strikes, no one is prepared.Even if the government wants to send someone, I'm afraid it won't be too soon.

Ye Kui's heart trembled, and she crawled out of the mud with hands and feet, heading towards the bamboo forest.She suddenly rejoiced that she was in the field when the incident happened, otherwise it would be a big disaster if she was trapped under the collapsed house.

When she found Chi Po, Chi Po had been in a coma for a long time.

Not far away, the sound of thunder was still coming from Xining Mountain, and Ye Kui knew that the mountain must still be collapsing.So she immediately packed up all the soft things she could find in Po Chi's house and wrapped them in a wet cloth, and helped Chi Po, who was slightly awake, to leave the bamboo forest.

This journey was extremely difficult.

As she expected, it took many days for the people from the government to show up.At that time, she had arrived in the town with Po Chi.The situation in the town was not much better than in the village, and there were victims everywhere.Unkempt, even if the Ding family were standing in front of her at this moment, they probably wouldn't be able to recognize her.And after the incident happened, everything was messed up. She didn't intend to avoid the Ding family, but she never met them.Worst of all, they were all dead.

When this idea came up, Ye Kui felt somewhat uncomfortable, but at the moment everyone is just a mud bodhisattva crossing the river.

Granny Chi's health has been getting worse over the past few years, and this time she was even more shocked and injured, and her body immediately became worse than before.But Po Chi was so tolerant that even Ye Kui seemed to have forgotten the injury on her back.

There are many rivers in Hongdu, but this time it was a catastrophe caused by too much water, and the waterways just couldn't work.They had no choice but to walk with the victims to the center of Hongdu. When they got there, someone should provide relief.

But when they got there, they realized that Ye Kui had made a mistake.In this era of underdeveloped transportation, disaster relief is far from comparable to that of later generations.

There are more and more refugees, swarming towards Hongdu.

The ruined temple where they lived was only a few people at first, and then there were more than ten people, and now there are only three or forty people.There are more and more people, and the places are getting more and more crowded. The space everyone can get is just enough for you to curl up and rest for a while.The disaster relief personnel have not come for a long time, but the refugees are gathering more and more. If this continues, the turmoil will only happen sooner or later. She should go north to Fengcheng as soon as possible.

But now everything is difficult to reach the blue sky.

Someone in the ruined temple seemed to be snoring, and the sound became louder and louder.Not long after, there was the sound of a baby crying again.Someone scolded the baby's mother, "Take care of the baby! Let no one rest!"

Ye Kui could only hear the anxious and flustered comforting voice of the mother who seemed to be very young, but it didn't help at all, and the child cried louder instead.After another half an hour, more people were woken up by the sound of children crying, and all of their words were filled with dissatisfaction.Ye Kui was also upset, the child's crying pierced her heart.

"If you cry again, get out of here!" The snoring stopped suddenly, and a rude male voice who was still sleepy suddenly sounded.

Chi Po was also awakened by the scolding, opened her eyes and asked softly, "What happened?"

"It's okay, you can go back to sleep." Ye Kui sat in a different position, and reached out to help Po Chi.

"Snapped--"

The sudden slap in the face made Ye Kui turn around. The bearded man rubbed his sleepy eyes, and then slapped the mother who was holding the child heavily with the other hand, "It's so noisy! Get out!"

As if startled, the child stopped crying suddenly, but immediately burst into earth-shattering cries.

The man seemed to reach out to hit him again, but was suddenly caught by the other hand!

With a slight movement of the figure with his back to Ye Kui, the bearded man yelled sadly, "Hero, spare your life, spare your life—"

"Since you let others go, why don't you go?"

The voice seemed to be that of a young man, and his stature looked a little thin, but his aura was really scary.Ye Kui remembered this person, who came only in the evening, wearing a bamboo hat so he couldn't see his face clearly, and he was leading two tall and strong men who also wore bamboo hats.Unlike their ragged clothes, although the three people's clothes were also a little dirty, they were much cleaner than theirs.

"Let's go!" The young man said to go, then twisted the arm of the bearded man, leading the two people who came with him to file out.

Once he left, he never came back...
