Chapter 434 The Xie Family’s Inspiration
Everyone has now put on the “life-saving clothing” sent by Tuhua, the god of the Xie family. When they put it on, it felt like a breeze to keep them warm. After running around, everyone suddenly felt like they were steaming inside their bodies as soon as they sat down.
Some people's bodies are so hot that they can't help but pull off their protective clothing to dissipate heat.
The night is deep.
The surroundings are quiet, with the occasional sound of wild beasts in the countryside.
Some of the escorted officers were patrolling around according to Chu Feijian's orders.
Han Qiguang's "caravan" troops also took the initiative to help keep an eye on safety everywhere, trying to give those in the protection circle time to rest safely.
After a long journey, everyone had consumed a lot of energy, and now they were tired and hungry.
The rules on the exile road have always been to eat during the day and rest at night.
But today is special.
Nowadays, almost everyone seems to refer to the Xie family's every move. When they see the Xie family sitting down, they don't immediately lie down to rest. Others only dare to sit and lean on each other, simply tapping their shoulders, tapping their legs, and relaxing.
Xie family didn’t lie down, did they know they would have to leave soon?
Or is it dangerous tonight and you can’t let down your guard?
No matter which one it is, everyone’s eyes are fixed on the actions of Mrs. Xie and others.
Unexpectedly, after watching for a short time, I saw Mrs. Soup.
Fortunately, when giving up the baggage, everyone was carrying their own important "materials".
Thanks to the family for taking the lead in making rice. In this cold night, they can eat something hot and feel warm all over.
The officers serving meals served the prisoners one by one. Today, the group of prisoners no longer had the troublemaking group in the past.
There are some thin people left, and the guards control them all the way, which is very convenient.
Moreover, there are many old and weak women here, more women and fewer men, so it is 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 are waiting for the Xie family’s women and men. With the help of her, we can all settle down gradually.
When traveling at night or temporarily sleeping in the countryside, you are most afraid of getting cold.
It was very cold at night, and after everyone had warmed their stomachs with warm soup, Mrs. Xie asked her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou, to lead the women to make some ginger soup to dispel the cold and give it to everyone. Keep out the cold.
Seeing this, everyone showed gratitude on their faces.
Chu Feijian came to Mrs. Xie to express his gratitude. Mrs. Xie waved her hands repeatedly, "Your Excellency, you have really embarrassed this old woman. We are guilty now and have to trouble you all to take care of you all the way. Thank you for your hard work." "
Although Mrs. Xie's words were very sincere, Chu Feijian did not dare to take them seriously.
He knew what was going on along the way.
"It's already late at night, and I don't know how long we need to hide here."
Mrs. Xie thought for a while and said, "There are only a few hours until dawn. Wait. Wait and see.”
In order to ensure safety, almost all the prisoners gathered together during this break. In this way, although the space for everyone to stretch out is relatively small, it feels warm when there are many people. .
The guards built several fires around the outside, firstly to guard against wild beast attacks, and secondly to keep everyone warm.
As for whether it will attract the attention of those chasing after him, it is not within the scope of Chu Feijian's consideration now.
There were actually two or three people missing from the "caravan" along the way. Chu Feijian knew it, but he didn't ask too much. Every once in a while, someone would come back.
I have a kneecap guess, and I also know what those people were doing.
While Chu Feijian was sitting on the ground drinking hot vegetable porridge, he secretly looked over there a few times and kept telling himself to turn a blind eye.
Now that Master Xiong has spoken, he should know who is here.
Just make sure the other person won't cause trouble to you. I chose a good place to rest here. I took a temporary rest for a while, but I didn't see any bad news from the "spies" who came back later.
Chu Feijian chatted a few words with Mrs. Xie and Zhang Dayi.
Tonight, nothing too dangerous should happen on their side, so let me tell you to relax and have a good rest first.
Some people were watching the night around, while others seized the hard-won time and rested quickly.
The life-saving suit cannot be taken off. In order to be able to get up and go on the road at any time, even baggage and other personal belongings must be packed away in a convenient place.
Only in this way can we race against time to escape before the crisis comes.
Thanks to my family, except for the youngest child, the adults will not sleep tonight.
Everyone carries a self-defense spray given by the family god on their bodies and in their arms, helping Jie and some people from the "caravan" to look after everyone inside and outside.
A group of prisoners, old, weak, women and children, gathered in the innermost part to catch up on their sleep secretly.
Some prisoners could not sleep. At first they were counting stars with their eyes open in the crowd silently, but then they silently looked at the Xie family who were busy doing everything for the safety of everyone.
Not long after, it seemed that the female family members of the Chai family, who could still live a prosperous life after being exiled, also came to help the Xie family.
Some people squinted their eyes and watched secretly for a long time in disbelief.
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 strong 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 came into contact with a noble man and realized that there were such good things in this world.
Raise your head and look ahead.
Seeing the Xie family, he took out his own long blanket and gently covered several elderly people and young children in the team.
The eyes of the woman who had been struggling all the way suddenly became hot for no apparent reason.
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 together were not around. The woman, who had been cowardly for a long time, was inexplicably summoned by something. She suddenly plucked up the courage, stood up, hesitated for a moment, and then started to work towards the female members of the Xie family. place and walked over firmly.
"Excuse me?"
The Xie family's female relatives are discussing with each other to prepare something in advance so that they can be better prepared for protection.
Suddenly I heard a female voice coming from beside me.
Everyone immediately stopped chatting and looked back.
I saw a thin and slender woman, twirling her fingers and looking at their family.
The Xie family was slightly stunned: "?"
I didn't quite understand what the other party meant by his sudden arrival.
"I see you are still busy after resting. I can't sleep. I wonder what I can do for you?"
Xie Zhen said: "Aren't you tired? You have run all the way."
"It's okay, I can't sleep. I want to help you do something together, okay?" She usually leans over.
"We can't sleep either. If there is any work left, let us help with it."
