It was daybreak, and we continued our journey after breakfast.
Before setting off, Uncle Ma called everyone together and said with a heavy expression: "Everyone is aware of the situation now. It will only become more difficult as the days go by."
"Our convoy cannot leave like this, two mule carts They formed a line, and the team was shortened to accommodate the crowd. In places where there were many people, the men from each family got off the car and led the mules. They also took their kitchen knives and machetes to protect the cars and the women. "
"Also, I remind everyone. One thing, no matter how pitiful you meet on the road, you are not allowed to give away a grain of food. It is not that you are reluctant to give up a grain of food, but it is for the sake of everyone's safety. Do you understand? "
Everyone responded in a mixed manner," " Understood."
"Okay, let's set off. We'll probably have to rest in the wilderness tonight. Everyone, bring enough water. We can reach Tongcheng in Xishan County tomorrow. If you don't have enough food or something, We'll buy it when we get to Tongcheng."
Everyone cheered up and drove the mule cart on the road.
There were more and more victims on the road, and this team of mule carts was particularly eye-catching. From time to time, people stopped the convoy to ask for food, and the car couldn't move fast at all.
Gu Fei blocked Lanzhi inside and walked outside.
No matter who she met who tried to stop her, she would glare at them fiercely. She also knew that at this point, it was really impossible to be kind.
When it was time to take a break at noon, Uncle Ma shouted, "Everyone is eating dry food next to the car. Don't put down what you have in your hands. Be careful. Eat quickly. Eat quickly and leave immediately. Don't waste too much time.
" After a long time, the victims in this area know that they have food, and they are afraid that they will all come over.
That's hard to say.
Uncle Ma climbed on the roof of a car and looked around.
On the official road, on both sides of the official road, there were scattered disaster victims everywhere.
Uncle Ma thought for a while and jumped out of the car, "Don't rest, keep walking and eat while walking! We can't stop now!"
Everyone was stuffing dry food into their mouths desperately, Huzi was walking in front of Gu Fei, and now Suddenly a man ran over, snatched half of the nest from Huzi's hand and ran away.
Huzi looked at his empty hands and was about to cry when Gu Fei pulled him inside and stuffed a piece of chocolate into his mouth, "Come inside and eat with your mouth closed."
Huzi tasted the taste in his mouth, He raised his head and looked at Gu Fei with shining eyes.
Gu Fei held a dagger in one hand and gnawed a steamed bun in the other, looking around with vigilant eyes.
The convoy trudged forward.
Some time ago I walked seventy or eighty miles a day, and this whole day I walked more than forty miles.
It was getting dark, and no one thought about finding an inn. They just set up a stove to cook in the wild.
Chen made a pot of millet porridge, and Li Chunhua took out a bowl of pickles and put them in it.
Bao'er ran over and took a look. Seeing that there was no oil or water, he curled his lips and ran away.
After Bao'er ran away, Mrs. Chen shared another pancake.
While eating, a girl in ragged clothes came over and suddenly knelt down in front of everyone, "Uncles and aunts, you can buy me. I don't need any money, just give it to those who stutter. I can help with the work."
Qian next to her said Hearing a scream, "What are you talking about? Don't want money? Don't want food either?"
The girl quickly turned around and kowtowed to Qian, "No money, no food, nothing, as long as the stuttering person can survive. I can work, I can chop wood, I can work in the fields, I can cook, I can do any kind of work, aunt, please buy me."
