After evacuating the Hou Mansion, I fled famine with my pregnant belly

Chapter 674 Rescue 4
At this time, the sky, which had been clearing up for a while, suddenly darkened and a drizzle began to fall from the sky. The raindrops hit the villagers' faces and bodies obliquely.

Jiang Huai looked at the dark sky in the distance, frowned slightly, and turned to give instructions to the guards beside him.

"Send more people to inform the people ahead to speed up and reach the cave before dark."

"Yes, sir." The guard responded and left.

The team sped up their pace, but the rain gradually got heavier, and the road, which was originally half dry, became slippery and difficult to drive on.

"Everyone, hurry up and leave all unnecessary things behind. Just carry my mother and children on your back."

The village chief was also perceptive. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, he made a prompt decision and shouted at the young and strong villagers.

How can material possessions be as important as life?
"Let me hold the baby."

Feng Jiuyou reached out and firmly held a woman's hand.

"Let me hold the baby."

The woman was stunned for a moment and looked up at Feng Jiuyou's expensive clothes.

"My dear, I can't bear to part with this."

"It doesn't matter, just wash it again if it gets dirty."

There was a hint of hesitation in the woman's eyes, but she finally handed the child in her arms over.

"Thank...thank you."

Feng Jiuyou took the child and then used his cloak to block the wind and rain.

As if feeling the warmth, the child in her arms yawned and fell asleep.

When the woman saw this scene, her eyes were filled with gratitude.

"Let's go." Feng Jiuyou said in a low voice. Although there was not much emotion in his voice, it made the woman feel inexplicably at ease.

"Ugh!"

With the help of the soldiers, the team moved much faster.

"Hold on a little longer, we'll be there in a short distance." The guard's voice came from the front. Although it was a little vague, it made people feel at ease.

After a while, the large group arrived at the entrance of the cave. At the entrance of the cave, several huge rocks were pushed up to form a natural barrier, blocking most of the wind and rain.

The leading guards went in first to check, and only after making sure there was no danger did they allow the villagers in.

The cave was a little dark, so the guards lit torches and saw the situation inside the cave. The cave was huge, and although it was a little crowded, it could easily accommodate 70 or 80 people.

A rough estimate shows that there are about fifty or sixty people in this village.

Of the two hundred people brought by Feng Jiuyou, only thirty are here. The others were assigned by Jiang Huai to several other villages for rescue when they were separated.

This village was the worst hit.

After a while, a bonfire was lit on the ground, dispelling some of the cold, and the villagers couldn't wait to sit down around the bonfire.

The halos of the torches danced on the rock walls, illuminating the tired faces of the villagers.

An Si stood at the entrance of the cave and glanced at everyone:
"Don't worry, everyone. Our master has already sent people to deliver the supplies. I believe they will be delivered soon."

Hearing these words, a glimmer of hope flashed in the villagers' eyes and their brows relaxed a little.

"Really?"

"real."

“God has not abandoned us.”

"thanks, thanks!"

"If it weren't for you, all of us would have died in this disaster. Great benefactor, please accept our greetings."

Led by the village chief, the villagers knelt on the ground and kowtowed loudly.

"Old man, you are also the people of Dayuan Country. It is my duty to save you. There is no need to do this."

Jiang Huai quickly helped the village chief up.

With the help of Jiang Huai, the village chief stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves.

"It's just... all the farmland in the village is gone. I feel so ashamed of my ancestors and the villagers."
