Chapter 30 Save the child

"At first, there were two on the neck, then more and more in the back, and gradually spread to the waist and body. It didn't hurt much, but it was a little itchy."

Su Qing nodded, already having a rough judgment in his mind.

On the way to escape from famine, the environment is difficult and it is difficult to ensure sanitation. Especially when sleeping in the wild, it is difficult to prevent mosquitoes. If bites are not treated in time, the disease will spread and become more serious.

With the cover of her baggage, she took out disinfection and treatment drugs from the space pharmacy and patiently applied them to the three little ones.

"Does it hurt?"

Facing her inquiry, the three little ones raised their heads and looked over, shaking their heads in unison.

Seeing their well-behaved looks, Su Qing felt happy and sad at the same time. She couldn't help but hug them in her arms as a silent comfort.

At night, with extra winter clothes and quilts, everyone slept much more soundly.

"Thank you."

Before going to sleep, Song Zhi suddenly came up with this sentence without beginning or end.

Su Qing only thought that he was thanking her for taking care of the child. She felt sleepy and nodded casually without saying anything more.

Seeing the woman closing her eyes, she heard the sound of even breathing after a while. Song Zhi pursed his lips and felt a ripple in his heart. Unknowingly, he fell asleep soundly. When he opened his eyes again, it was already the third time.

Early morning of the second day.

Since escaping from the famine, he rarely slept until dawn, which even himself found strange.

"Eat quickly!"

Before he could think about it, Su Qing had already cooked the porridge, and took out the thin-skinned meat buns and pickled vegetables from the space to invite him and the children to eat.

"When did you buy these?"

Song Zhi dipped some water into his handkerchief and wiped his face and hands clean.

"That's when you buy rice."

Su Qing casually found an excuse to divert the conversation, and had a mouthful of plain porridge and a mouthful of side dishes, which had a unique flavor.

"I'm going to pack up today, I think I'm going to hit the road."

Song Zhi broke open the hot meat buns, cooled them and handed half to each of Yaya and Erbao. Seeing them eating with satisfied faces and oily mouths, he couldn't help but smile.

Before setting out on the road, Su Qing and Song Zhi made a simple cart and put pots, pans, rice, noodles, quilts, etc. on it.

“Everyone is in high spirits and it’s time to set off!”

The people sent by Village Chief Liu to explore the road came back and immediately urged everyone to set off.

The man hiding in the grass took the opportunity to stand up and signal to his companions beside him. They divided into two groups, one continued to follow, and the other went back to report the news.

Men don't dare to follow too closely, as long as they can be seen from a distance.

"Why don't I feel right?"

Su Qing frowned, keenly feeling the hot gaze coming from behind her. She turned back subconsciously and vaguely caught a glimpse of the shadow of someone under the tree. Her heart tightened, and she immediately tugged on Song Zhi's sleeve beside her and lowered her voice, "Have you ever

It feels like someone is following us behind us."

When Song Zhi heard this, he glanced back calmly, it was indeed what she said.

But who will be following them?

"Could it be the same group of people last night?"

Su Qing couldn't help but feel a little regretful when she thought about yesterday. She should have dealt with it more cleanly at that time. If it was really them, there would be endless troubles.

"No problem!"

Song Zhi patted her arm and comforted her. At the same time, he gradually approached Village Chief Liu. He lowered his head and whispered something to him, but he kept nodding.

"Let's go!"

Song Zhi handed the mules and children to Village Chief Liu and gradually left the team.

Regarding his strange behavior, Su Qing didn't ask anything and followed him away firmly.

Others in the crowd did not notice the two leaving. Only Liu Dachuan and Liu Fang'er noticed it, and their expressions were complicated.

"Why, are you envious?"

Liu Dachuan spoke sarcastically, his eyes filled with anger.

In response, Liu Fang'er chose to remain silent, withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and continued to move forward without saying a word.

Seeing her look like this, Liu Dachuan became more and more angry, as if he had been punched on cotton and all his strength was taken away.

He couldn't figure out how he was worse than Song Zhi!

Liu Dachuan clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh. After a long silence, he angrily rushed to the front and took the initiative to explore the route.

Song Zhi and Su Qing turned back again. Without the delay of the large army, this time the two were very fast, making it difficult for those following them to keep up.

When he finally caught up, the two of them disappeared into a dense forest.

"Where are the people?"

The man's face was anxious, and there was a hint of anger and irritability in his eyes, as well as a hint of worry. If these two people were lost in his hands, he would not be able to survive after returning.

While he was frantically searching, the two of them had already silently arrived behind him.

Su Qing's eyes swept over him coldly, she clenched the silver needle in her hand and inserted it straight into his acupuncture points, causing him to lose all strength and immediately collapsed to the ground, unable to move.

Song Zhi pulled out the dagger, put it against his throat, and asked sternly, "Who are you? Why are you following us?"

The cold blade touched his skin, making him shiver uncontrollably.

But even so, he still pressed his lips tightly together, as if he was leaning forward to die.

"It's really heartfelt."

As Su Qing snorted coldly, Song Zhi killed him with a knife.

When the two caught up with the team again, they were dumbfounded. The people in the village seemed to have been severely damaged. All the rice and flour they had just bought were taken away, and most of the people were killed or injured.

This is?

Su Qing frowned, but before she could ask, Liu Fang'er stumbled over and grabbed her hand tightly with the last of his strength.

"Child, child...save the child!"

After saying that, she rolled her eyes and fainted.

At this time, the two looked around and discovered that all the children in the village, including Dabao, Erbao and Yaya, had been kidnapped.

Village Chief Liu was kneeling on the ground, his eyes were blank, as if he had lost his soul.

"What's going on?"

Song Zhi rushed over quickly, trying his best to restrain the anger in his voice.

Liu Dachuan covered his injured shoulder and told the story of the future, "Not long after you left, we encountered a group of bandits. They came up to steal food and children. Dad and the villagers resisted desperately, but they still couldn't resist.

.”

"Just robbing things but not killing people?"

Su Qing was keenly aware that something was wrong. According to common sense, when bandits burned, killed and looted, there should be no survivors wherever they went. Why were these people different?

Song Zhi also nodded in agreement with her suspicion.

The two of them thought of the person they had just dealt with. They looked at each other and saw each other's thoughts.

"Where did those bandits go?"

Liu Dachuan pointed to the left, "They went that way."

"Um."

Song Zhi nodded, "You guys find a place to recuperate first, I'll follow along and take a look."

"I'm with you."

Liu Dachuan clenched his fists and glanced at his father and mother-in-law without hesitation.

"no!"
