Chapter 177

Jiang Zhao quickly scooped up some water and fed it to him. The child grabbed Jiang Zhao's hand and poured water into his stomach desperately. It seemed that he had been hungry for a long time.

He gulped down a whole scoop of water by himself.

But after that, Jiang Zhao didn't let him drink any more, and he wouldn't be able to eat after drinking it for a while.

She asked Wei Xiang to go to the village to buy something edible, and she stayed here to continue feeding the rest of the people.

They are already dying. If they are left alone, it may not be long before all of these people will starve to death and die of thirst.

"No, miss, Zhang Yougen lived here before, who knows if there will be someone from him here."

Wei Xiang frowned and rejected Jiang Zhao's request.

As long as it is about her personal safety, Wei Xiang will never compromise.

Jiang Zhao thought about it in his mind. In those TV dramas before, the heroines were extremely conceited. In order to save others, they dismissed the heroine and gave the enemy an opportunity.

What Wei Xiang said is correct, this is the place where Zhang Yougen lived before, no one will know if there are any of them here, so it is right to be cautious after all.

She has already died once, and she doesn't want to die again, and she can't do things that make her die, and after this death, who knows if she really died or will travel through again.

She nodded: "Okay, let's feed them water first, and when they get better, I'll go with you."

Wei Xiang was very relieved in her heart, her young lady would still listen to him very much when dealing with safety.

With Jiang Zhao's assistance, Wei Xiang fed everyone a little water.

After making sure that they all drank water and would not die for the time being, Jiang Zhao and Wei Xiang went to the nearby houses to ask if they could buy some food for them.

The little eunuch's home is relatively remote, and there are no other houses nearby.

Jiang Zhao and Wei Xiang walked on the ridge for a long time.

Fortunately, it is winter now, if it is summer, it will definitely be hot to death.

Wei Xiang opened the way ahead, stepping on the weeds to make it easier for Jiang Zhao behind.

But there are too many weeds on this ridge, and it is estimated that no one has left for too long.

The eunuch's family was nearby, and they must have been lying in bed for a long time, and the weeds on the ridge were growing wildly.

Although Wei Xiang opened the way ahead, Jiang Zhao still had a hard time walking.

She looked down at the road under her feet, and all she could see was green grass, and she couldn't see the yellow-brown land below.
She raised her head and sighed, hoping to find someone soon, and she didn't know how long the water they fed to the little eunuch's family just now could last them.

She quickened her pace, but accidentally tripped over a goosegrass.

Seeing that her face was about to come into close contact with those below, there was only one thought in her mind at this moment.

The fairy descended to earth, but landed on her face first.

Then, a pair of big hands supported her steadily, keeping her fairy-like face.

She knew it was Wei Xiang without looking up.

"It's alright."

Wei Xiang's calm and mellow voice came from above his head.

She used Wei Xiang's hands to stabilize herself, then shook her head: "I'm fine."

At this time, Wei Xiang squatted down in front of her and said.

"The road here is not easy to walk. I don't know how long it will take to find her. I will walk there with you on my back."

The road was really difficult, and he was worried that Jiang Zhao would be walking behind, and if something happened, he might not be able to leave in time.

It would be even more difficult to let Jiang Zhao walk in front, so it is the best way for him to walk with her on his back.

But Jiang Zhao shook his head.

"It's okay, I just need to pay attention to myself, if you carry me away, it will definitely waste time."

The present time is life for the little eunuch's family.

"I'll go faster if I carry you on my back."

Before, he was waiting for Jiang Zhao who was behind, so he slowed down and walked with Jiang Zhao on his back. He could indeed go faster.

Jiang Zhao stopped coddling and stepped forward to lie on Wei Xiang's back.

Wei Xiang turned her body upside down and frowned, why is my young lady so light?
Carrying her on his back is like carrying a sack of cotton on his shoulders, it doesn't weigh much.

It seems that when I go back, I have to ask my young lady to cook more food, at least not to be so light.

Every time she ate a little more, Jiang Zhao yelled that she wanted to lose weight, and she must not let her continue to lose weight in the future.

It's so light, why lose weight? If you lose any more weight, you will lose your body.

Wei Xiang thought about it in her heart, and then continued to walk forward.

At this time, Jiang Zhao had only one thought in his mind, and Wei Xiang was right, he walked faster behind his back.

It seemed that he was dragging him down, lying on Wei Xiang's back, Jiang Zhao's face was full of bullshit.

Wei Xiang's footsteps, even with Jiang Zhao on his back, were still walking steadily.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, I finally saw a family. The village was inevitably too scattered, and it took me so long to find a family.

Jiang Zhao asked Wei Xiang to put himself down, and went to ask the family.

A peasant woman was feeding chickens in the yard. When she saw the two men walking towards her house, she stepped forward and asked.

"What's the matter with the two gentlemen?"

With a bright smile on Jiang Zhao's fair face, she stepped forward and asked sweetly.

"Sister, we have a few friends who are dying of hunger. Can you sell us some food so that we can save my friends."

There is only such a family in sight here, Jiang Zhao is afraid that this lady will not sell food, so she is so sweet.

The peasant woman looked at this young gentleman carved in pink and jade, with such a sweet mouth, she pursed her lips and smiled straight away.

Then go back to the house and put some food into a sieve made of bamboo strips and pass it to Jiang Zhao and the others.

"There's so much to eat at home right now, take it with you."

Jiang Zhao took it and looked at it. They were all cakes made of coarse grains. Now they have become hard, and it took a lot of effort to bite them.

Quickly let Wei Xiang take out the money.

"Thank you so much, my sister."

Jiang Zhao handed the money to the peasant woman.

But the peasant woman waved her hands again and again.

"No need, it's just some food, you just take it. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

But Jiang Zhao still put the money into the hands of the peasant woman.

"The money is not only for the food, we also want to buy a chicken from my sister's yard."

The peasant woman subconsciously turned her head to look at the chickens she raised, and then at the money Jiang Zhao stuffed in her hand.

"That doesn't cost so much money."

She wanted to return the extra money to Jiang Zhao, but Jiang Zhao refused.

"My sister just said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. This money is to repay a kind-hearted person like my sister."

Seeing that Jiang Zhao refused to take back the money, the peasant woman grabbed two of the fattest chickens from her yard and handed them to Jiang Zhao.

"Since that's the case, let's take these two little chickens."

But Jiang Zhao only took one chicken.

"This one chicken is enough, this one, let it lay eggs for a while longer."

After taking the chicken, Jiang Zhao and Wei Xiang went back without giving the peasant woman a chance to refute.

"Thank you, sister."

Seeing the two getting further and further away, Jiang Zhao's voice of thanks came.
