Chapter 6
The sky was pale, and there were shouts of killing from time to time in the city. Xu Yue's family was so frightened that they didn't dare to stop. They walked along the mountain path for two hours.

By the time the shouts of killing that came from behind from time to time subsided, the sky was already bright.

As the sun rose, the surrounding temperature rose rapidly, and it was less than eight o'clock in the morning, making people dizzy from the sun.

Xu Dalang didn't seem to know how tired he was, and moved forward mechanically, but Xu Yue in his arms was flushed red and sweaty from the heat from his body.

Look at the eight-year-old Xu Erniang, who is struggling to move her two calves, carrying a marching bag, and putting one hand on Wang's trouser waist to use her strength to move her legs.

She was panting and sweating profusely, as if her body was reaching its limit, she gritted her teeth with a hideous face, and would let go of her hands and fall to the ground at any time.

Mrs. Wang didn't let her stop, she lifted half of Xu Erniang's body and threw the marching bag on her body to Xu Da, whose face was getting uglier, and turned her head and said to everyone:
"Persevere, the sun is too big, we can't stop in this unsheltered place, and walk for another hour." Realizing that his wording was inaccurate, Wang immediately changed it to half an hour.

He continued: "The south side of this mountain is close to the village. It is the place where villagers in several nearby villages collect firewood. The trees are sparse."

"However, due to the deep entry in the north, the forest still retains its original state. Except for hunters, almost no one goes in. When we get there, we can rest."

After speaking, he asked Xu Da to take out the bamboo tube filled with salt water, each of them took a sip to replenish energy, and then continued on their way.

The wild animals that Wang hunted before were all brought back from this forest. He has been here many times and is familiar with the terrain. He tried to take his family to places where it is easy to walk.

Half an hour later, the dense jungle that Mrs. Wang had mentioned finally appeared in front of everyone.

As soon as she stepped into the shady forest, Xu Erniang lay down on the grass, paralyzed from exhaustion.

But Xu Dalang in front of Xu Yue still had to move forward, his head was sweating hot, he was panting heavily, his body was already very tired, but his spirit was extremely excited.

At first Xu Yue didn't realize that there was anything wrong with this, but looking at it now, she realized that something was wrong with Xu Dalang.

Let Xu Dalang go on like this, his body may collapse at any time, and he himself is still unconscious.

Xu Yue hastily shouted to stop, and Xu Dalang, who was about to move forward, suddenly stopped, looked down at her in his arms, tilted his head slightly, eyes filled with anxiety and doubt, and shouted in his mouth, as if to say:
It's dangerous, you have to run away quickly, don't stop!

"Brother, you need to rest." Xu Yue slid from his arms as she spoke.

Looking down, good guy, the clothes in front of her are all wet with the sweat from Xu Dalang's body.

Looking up at Xu Dalang again, his clothes were completely soaked, he was panting heavily, his lips were white, chapped and peeled.

The condition of the two adults is much better. Xu Da seems to have a unique way of breathing. Apart from the fact that this terrible situation makes his face more and more ugly, there is no sign of fatigue at present.

Wang is also fine, after all, she is a sss-level gymnastics master. Although her current body is not the original body and her physical fitness has been compromised, this amount of exercise is nothing to her at all.

Xu Da watched as Mrs. Wang gathered the children together, instead of letting them sit down and rest, he made them do a few strange stretching movements before distributing food and water to them.

This is something he can't understand again. Didn't you see that the children are already tired?

Wouldn't it be nice to have this time to let them rest more?
Sensing Xu Da's bewildered and contemptuous gaze, Wang complained that he was an ignorant and illiterate man, but he still gave an explanation.

After all, it is the next partner, too ignorant will slow down.

"It's called stretching, and it puts the body in better shape and avoids musculoskeletal damage."

"The children have never exercised so vigorously. If they don't adjust their physical condition, they won't be able to walk tomorrow."

"If they don't even have the ability to act at all, if they encounter real danger, you and I have to take care of this and that, and we will all die together!"

Xu Da, who had never thought about escaping for his life and taking care of others, was stunned. In the cultivation world, the strong preyed on the weak and the worldview of survival of the fittest was severely impacted again.

"Pattern, do you understand?" Wang sneered at Xu Da, too lazy to look at his shocked face, and told the children:
"Hurry up and rest, I'll go to the cliff ahead to see what's going on down the mountain."

"Yeah, mother, be careful." Xu Yue nodded obediently, glanced sympathetically at Xu Da, who was despised by the Wang family, and silently handed the rice bran rice ball that she broke into three parts to her brother and sister.

Especially the one for Xu Dalang, which is much bigger than the one for Xu Erniang.

"Aren't you hungry?" Xu Erniang asked suspiciously.

Xu Yue shook her head, "I haven't even walked, so I'm not tired. My brother and sister work harder than me, so eat more."

Xu Erniang looked at her sister's big eyes full of distress, and suddenly felt that most of the fatigue in her body had subsided.

"My kind sister, the Goddess of Light will bless you."

Xu Erniang made a gesture of prayer on her chest, and readily accepted the food offered by her sister.

As for Xu Dalang, his younger sister eats whatever is given to him, as much as he is given, he is not picky at all, and he does not realize that he ate his sister's food.

A fist-sized rice bran dumpling plus a small piece of extra food from Xu Yue couldn't fill his hugely demanding stomach at all, and he stared at Xu Yue eagerly after eating.

This last portion was left to herself by Xu Yue. Although she was not tired, she didn't care about the hunger of her body. Her stomach was screaming at her, so she would not pass this food out no matter what.

Even though Xu Dalang's eyes were so longing, she did not hesitate to throw it into her mouth, and swallowed it whole with water.

Seeing that the food was gone, Xu Dalang's expression became obviously depressed, but he didn't do anything to hurt Xu Yue because of the food.

He patted her little head with the palm of his hand, as if to reassure her: it's okay, it's okay.

Xu Da followed the Wang family to the cliff, stood here, and had a panoramic view of the entire Changyi County.

Thick black smoke billowed up, and the refugee army holding high the red flags shuttled through the black smoke, which was more terrifying than the ghosts seeking their lives.

Snatch anyone you see, kill them if you don't follow them!

The snatched men and women exposed their flesh, tied their necks with long ropes, kicked at every step, or lined the hooves of the horses, or stepped on the feet of people.

The county seat and Beishan were so far apart, the strong smell of blood wafted to Wang and Xu Da.
