My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 32 A Great Calamity Is Approaching
Xin Mohan rubbed his sleepy eyes and mumbled something in a daze while lying on Xin Wenyuan's back.

Xie Ninglan looked around at the chaotic group of convicts and felt extremely anxious, "Daughter..."

Xin Nian's figure appeared beside the couple in the next instant.

Xie Ninglan grabbed the girl's arm, her eyes lighting up with joy, "Thank goodness you're finally back."

Xin Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief. "I'll go check on your brother over there first."

"Wait a minute, let's go together." Xin Nian called out to Dali.

The girl was busy gathering up the straw mats and cotton pads that were laid out on the ground. Upon hearing this, she responded and quickly pushed her cart to catch up with the group.

The earthquake was so severe that when Xin Nian's family stumbled and bumped their way to Mu Dalang's side, the young man had already carried the dazed Xin Mochen on his back.

Xin Wenyuan was extremely grateful and helped to secure Hao Da'er with a rope. He also made promises to Mu Dalang, saying, "Ah Zhong, when we get there, I will make sure that Mo Chen repays your kindness properly."

Mu Dalang chuckled sheepishly, "Fourth Master, this is all I should do."

"Oh, there's no such thing as 'should' or 'shouldn't.' From now on, we're all family. Don't worry, as long as Mo Chen has food to eat, he definitely won't let you down in the slightest."

Xie Ninglan twitched her lips.

Old Xin, that guy, always lets his eldest son do the repaying of favors himself, while he just talks a few words and says he'll definitely get away with it.

The earthquake made it difficult to move, and everyone was swaying from side to side, their legs feeling weak and unable to exert any strength.

Wang Bangyan's mother was incredibly clever; the moment the ground moved, she nimbly climbed onto her son's back and was now slapping him hard, yelling, "Run! Run forward!"

Wang Bangyan's wife, supporting her mother's waist and pulling on Wang's younger sister behind her, kept exclaiming in surprise.

Liang Guang and the other escorts were also anxious, fearing the violent shaking of the earth and worried that the serious criminals would take the opportunity to escape.

They stood in the outer circle, waving their whips haphazardly at the crowd and shouting, "Everyone forward! Everyone forward! No one is allowed to fall behind! No one is allowed to run to the sides!"

"Anyone who dares to slip away will face the consequences!"

Many people panicked and didn't even pack their bags and bedding before running off to catch up with the group.

The horse beneath Liang Guang neighed violently, shaking its head and completely out of control. He had no choice but to jump off the horse and pull hard on the reins.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't budge the raging, tall horse.

Stubborn to the end, neither side could make any progress.

The horse's hooves rose and stomped down heavily. Seeing that things were not going well, Liang Guang had no choice but to throw away the reins, letting the mad horse raise its head and neigh twice before galloping away.

No matter how heartbroken and reluctant they were, there was nothing they could do. Liang Guang could only lead Old Zhang, the escort, Xiao Jia, and the others to keep running forward.

Except for the serious criminals of Longhu Village, who were shackled even while sleeping and eating, the others would remove their shackles as appropriate when resting at night, so running around at this time was relatively easy.

The crowd became somewhat chaotic as it dispersed, with people running to the left on one side and to the right on the other.

The constables were worried that if the car didn't run in a straight line and veered to the sides, it would be even harder to control, and if it ran too far away, someone might sneak away. So they quickly split the car into two teams and tried their best to chase after it to the left and right.

"Come back! Don't run to either side, face forward!"

The bandits, led by Boss Sha and Boss Pi, were extremely cunning. As soon as the earthquake started, they began plotting their escape.

Xiao Jia led his men to the right side, and without hesitation, drew his sword and killed the two who were leading the escape. The remaining twelve men then behaved themselves.

The other ordinary people, with their families in tow, were also too afraid to flee, especially since those with poor eyesight had actually used real weapons. They were terrified and, like a chaotic flock of sheep, were being driven forward relentlessly.

At this moment, a disheveled middle-aged man ran out from the crowd, opened his arms and shouted, "The sky is shaking and the earth is shaking, a great disaster is about to befall us! Everyone, kneel down and kowtow! Beg the heavens and the earth god to spare us poor people."

After saying this, he knelt down first and kowtowed repeatedly as a sign of respect. Many others followed suit, bowing their hands and wailing loudly, claiming that they had not made any mistakes in the first half of their lives and begging for forgiveness.

Xin Wenyuan, holding his youngest son who was falling, rushed forward and kicked Xin Wen'an in the backside. "What are you doing, third son? Run!"

Xin Wen'an was about to kneel down with the crowd when he was suddenly kicked and stumbled forward a few steps. He turned around and glared angrily at his unreliable younger brother.

"Can't you see everyone is praying that the Earth God will not be angry?"

"God of the Earth my ass!" Xin Wenyuan said irritably. "Earthquake, run! There are lots of rocks on this small hill. Go forward and find a more open area to crouch down."

"What do you know? The earth dragon turning over is a sure sign of disaster. We can't run any further; we have to calm the earth dragon down."

"I'll calm you down, you bastard." And what's with the earth's crust movement and the earth dragon?

Xin Wenyuan couldn't have a word with the ancients, so he kicked him in the butt again, "Hurry up and run, stop talking nonsense. The people from the Imperial Observatory have all disappeared, and you're still dawdling here."

"go!"

Before his younger brother could kick him again, Xin Wen'an hurriedly ran forward.

Xin Nian glanced over and saw that Miss Zhao Xun from Longhu Village was very responsible, carrying the old lady on her back and running through the middle of the group with great efficiency.

With Granny Lu supporting the Third Miss Xin Ruoyu, they could catch up no matter how fast they rushed.

But those orphans and widows in the first wife's family are really a problem.

The delicate and charming Nie Shi tripped and fell while running. It looked like she had twisted her ankle, and large beads of sweat were dripping down her forehead.

Lin Xiuyi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the first wife, carried her sickly son on her back and had to bend down to help her unfortunate mother-in-law.

The second daughter-in-law, Mei, was running around unsteadily with her youngest daughter, Xin Man'er, constantly looking back.

Seeing the old woman fall, she went back to help her up, and Man'er fell to the ground and cried loudly.

Mei must have been a skilled fighter; she easily lifted the old woman up with one hand and scooped up her daughter, swaying her back and forth.

The eldest sister, Xin Wanqing, was also extremely busy, taking care of her two useless younger sisters, Xin Mengxue and Xin Mengye, from the third branch of the family. She had to comfort the two crying girls while also looking after the shrill and whining third wife, Zhuang Shi...

Xin Nian sighed, unable to bear watching any longer!

Judging from the eldest sister's appearance, it seems that even a king cannot lead a group of useless people.

What time is it? Stop crying and crying.

Xin Nian took a deep breath, ignoring the bunch of useless people from the third branch of the family, and rushed to her sister-in-law Lin Xiuyi's side.

He helped her hold her sleeping youngest son in his arms, then took Xin Man'er from his sister-in-law's arms and tossed the little girl onto his back.

He turned and yelled at the two of them, "Hurry up and carry your aunt on your back, and follow us."

Lin Xiuyi and Mei Zhuqing nodded repeatedly, as if they had found their pillar of support immediately.

Nie's feet hurt so much that she could no longer walk.

Lin Xiuyi insisted on carrying her on her back, and Mei Zhuqing put her on her back. One carried her and the other supported her, and they barely managed to keep up with Xin Nian, swaying from side to side.

A group of people were running forward when they suddenly heard the old man from the Imperial Observatory shout, "Stop!"

The group from the Marquis of Enyi's mansion and the Earl of Yongkang's mansion, who were leading the charge, couldn't stop themselves...

Several of them tumbled forward.
