After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself
Chapter 434: Thank you for your family’s inspiration
Chapter 434: Thank you for your family’s inspiration
Everyone has now put on the "life-saving suits" given by Xie family's god Tu Huan. They felt very windproof and warm when they first put them on, but after traveling all the way here, everyone felt as if their bodies were steaming as soon as they sat down.
Some people were so hot that they couldn't help but open their protective clothing to cool down.
The night is deep.
It was quiet all around, with the occasional sound of wild animals in the suburbs.
Some of the escorting officials were patrolling everywhere according to Chu Feijian's orders.
The "caravan" members under Han Qiguang also took the initiative to help keep an eye on safety in various places, and tried their best to leave time for people in the protection circle to rest safely.
After a tiring journey, everyone had consumed a lot of energy and was now tired and hungry.
The rule during exile has always been to eat during the day and rest at night.
But today is special.
Now, almost everyone seems to be taking the Xie family's every move as a reference. Seeing that the Xie family members did not lie down to rest immediately after sitting down, others only dare to sit and lean against them, simply patting their shoulders and legs to relax.
The Xie family members didn’t lie down, did they know they would have to leave soon?
Or is it too dangerous tonight to let our guard down?
No matter which one it was, everyone's eyes were fixed on the actions of Madam Xie and others.
Unexpectedly, after staring for not long, I saw Mrs. Xie stand up and talk to Chu Feijian for a few words, and then she took people to fetch water and boil water in a pot to cook instant vegetable soup.
Fortunately, when abandoning the baggage, everyone carried their own important "supplies".
The Xie family took the lead in cooking. On this cold night, they could eat something hot and warmed up their bodies.
The officials who were in charge of providing meals served meals to the prisoners one by one. Among the prisoners nowadays, there were no longer the troublemakers who used to make trouble.
There were only a few weak people left, and it was very convenient for the escorts to control them along the way.
Moreover, there are mostly elderly and weak women here, and there are more women than men, so they are easier to manage. There is no need for the officials to shout loudly. As long as the Xie family leads everyone to do something, the others can be settled one after another with the help of the women of the Xie family and others.
When traveling at night and temporarily camping in the suburbs, I am most afraid of the cold.
It was very cold at night, and after everyone had filled their stomachs with warm soup, Old Lady Xie asked her daughter-in-law, the first lady Zhou, to lead the women to make some ginger soup to drive away the cold for everyone.
When everyone saw this, they all showed gratitude on their faces.
Chu Feijian came to Old Madam Xie to express his gratitude. Old Madam Xie waved her hands repeatedly and said, "Sir, you really embarrassed me. We are now guilty and have to trouble you all to take care of us along the way. Thank you for your hard work."
Although Madam Xie said this sincerely, Chu Feijian did not dare to take it seriously.
He knew what was going on along the way.
"It's already late at night, and I don't know how long I need to hide here."
Madam Xie thought for a moment and said, "It's only a few hours until dawn. Let's wait and see."
In order to ensure their safety, almost all the prisoners gathered together during this rest period. This way, although there was less space for everyone to stretch out, it was warmer with more people.
The escorts built several bonfires around the outside to prevent attacks from wild beasts and to keep everyone warm.
As for whether it would attract the attention of the people chasing behind, it was not within Chu Feijian's consideration at the moment.
In fact, there were two or three people missing from the "caravan" along the way. Chu Feijian knew this, but he didn't ask much. Every once in a while, one person would come back.
I have a kneecap guess and I also know where those people went.
As Chu Feijian sat on the ground drinking hot porridge, he secretly glanced over there a few times, and kept telling himself in his heart to turn a blind eye.
Since Lord Xiong has spoken, he should have an idea of who is here.
Just make sure the other party won't cause trouble to you. The place to rest here was indeed well chosen. We rested for a while and didn't see any bad news from the "spies" who came back later.
Chu Feijian chatted with Old Madam Xie and Zhang Dayi for a while.
Nothing too dangerous should happen on their side tonight, so I'll tell everyone to relax and have a good rest first.
Some people were keeping watch around at night, while others were seizing the hard-earned time to rest quickly.
The life-saving clothes on the body cannot be taken off. In order to be able to get up and continue on the journey at any time, even the bag and other personal belongings must be well packed in a convenient place.
Only in this way can we escape every second before the crisis comes.
Thank you family, except for the youngest child, all the adults will not sleep tonight.
Everyone carried the self-defense spray given by the household god on their bodies and in their arms, and helped the escorts and some people from the "caravan" to look after everyone inside and outside.
A group of fugitives, including the elderly, the weak, women and children, gathered in the innermost part to secretly catch up on their sleep.
Some of the exiles couldn't sleep. They originally kept their eyes open and counted the stars in the crowd. Later, they looked at the Xie family who were busy running around for everyone's safety.
Not long after, it seemed that some of the women of the Chai family, who had been able to live a prosperous life despite being exiled, also went to help the Xie family.
Some people squinted their eyes and looked at it secretly for a long time without quite believing it.
Are those people whose lives are valuable actually willing to go to this extent to protect ordinary people like them, or even untouchables?
She lowered her head and stared at the sturdy and warm clothes on her body. She had never worn such good clothes since she was born.
Unexpectedly, it was only after she was exiled that she was able to benefit from the help of a noble person and see that there are such good things in this world.
Raise your head and look forward.
Seeing the Xie family take out their own long blanket, they gently covered the elderly and young children in the team.
The woman, who had been in a miserable state all the way, suddenly felt tears in her eyes.
I have stayed in the cold night for too long and I really can't stand any warmth. I always feel that I am not worthy and can't keep it.
However, at this moment.
The men who were exiled with her were not around. The woman, who had been cowardly for a long time, was inexplicably summoned by something. She suddenly mustered up the courage, stood up and hesitated for a moment, then walked towards where the women of the Xie family were busy with firm steps.
"Excuse me?"
The women of the Xie family were discussing with each other and deciding whether to prepare something in advance so that they could be better prepared for protection.
Suddenly, I heard a female voice beside me.
Everyone immediately stopped chatting and looked back.
There was a thin and slender woman, twiddling her fingers and looking at her family.
The Xie family was slightly stunned: "?"
I don't quite understand why the other person came here suddenly.
"I see you guys are still busy even though you guys have rested. I can't sleep. I wonder if I can help you guys with something?"
Xie Zhen said: "Aren't you tired? You've been running all the way."
"It's ok, I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to help you guys do something together, okay?"
Before the Xie family members could say anything, several people stood up beside the woman and approached her like she did.
"We can't sleep either. If there's any work, let us help out."
