Zheng Xiang's eyes flashed and he looked surprised and worried and whispered to Du Zao.

"Brother and sister, can you tell me carefully? I'm really worried. The world is so chaotic. The Zheng family only has two children left. If something happens to them, I really don't know how to talk to my dead father. Mother told me."

Du Zao originally wanted to brag to this man, but when he heard him talk about his compassion, He Yan also felt compassion.

"Brother Xiang, if you trust me, you can go with me to get water during the day and let the children follow Du Zao. We happen to have two similar boys at home."

Du Zao frowned after hearing this, but did not object.

"Isn't it bad? I haven't seen anyone in the village for so many years. I'm afraid someone will come to trouble you, and I'm embarrassed to bring trouble to my younger siblings."

This was the first time Du Zao heard someone say the word "involved" to her. She was indeed a cultured person, but she was different. When she was happy, she would show her big teeth and smile.

"It's okay, it's just a casual thing, just at night."

Zheng Xiang heard Du Zao's unfinished meaning and answered the question wisely.

"We will go back to the end of the team in the evening. Don't worry about this. Let's go and tell Brother Tieshi now. If he agrees, we will trouble my brothers and sisters."

He Yan and Zheng Xiang returned to Niu Tieshi. Niu Tieshi did not agree immediately after hearing this. As the head of Xiaoyan Village, he had to think more, but Zheng Xiang said it sincerely. The Zheng family also The village offered some help, and he would be ungrateful if he refused.

"It's just two children, a donkey and some luggage. The head of the house agrees. Besides, didn't they say that they would go back to the back of the team in the evening? You forgot that Grandpa Zheng did a lot for the village when he was here. "

Mao Xiangxiang saw her husband's hesitation and spoke out. Niu Tieshi sighed and took a breath of the dry cigarette in his hand.

"Okay, your sister-in-law said so, so I made this decision, not for you, but for the sake of the two children and the Zheng family."

"Thank you, brother Tieshi and sister-in-law, I know."

Zheng Xiang said thanks and left quickly.

"When you two wait for me to follow the people to get water, you can go find He Yan's family in the team. I have made an agreement with them."

Chen Yu and Wei Zehan nodded obediently, without asking why, and just like that, a new day of escaping began again.

She didn't know if it was because of eating meat. Chen Yu felt that she was not as tired as the first day. However, when the queue stopped at noon, she felt that she was wrong.

Don't you have a break at noon? Chen Yu wanted to ask but had not yet spoken. Zheng Xiang thought she was tired and stopped. Wei Zehan got off the donkey knowingly. Chen Yu glanced at the donkey and climbed onto its back.

Forget it, it was too late to ask again at night. It was better to save some energy and stop talking now. Her throat was so dry that she looked up at the dazzling sun, which almost blinded her.

Chen Yu took out a shabby old clothes and covered his head. She saw this from the team. Not to mention that the effect was still somewhat good, at least she didn't feel so exposed.

Wei Zehan saw what Chen Yu did and secretly muttered that he would do the same later.

Next to the desolate road is the desert's agglomerated sandy land. On the land are teams of people fleeing the desert. No one knows how far they have to go before they can see the green, but they dare not stop.

There was no water source for two days in a row. After listening to Zheng Xiang's explanation, Chen Yu realized that the fleeing team would only rest at night. Unless they encountered a water source, important matters such as food would not be stopped.

Chen Yu thought she asked a stupid question. Wouldn't it be tiring to walk like this?

"How can you not be tired when you are tired? But no matter how tired you are, you have to go. Once a person stops, he will always want to stop. You have to remember that the most taboo thing on the way to escape is to think that you can continue walking after taking a rest."

So that was it, she understood.

Another day passed, but no water source was found. Most of the people in the team had begun to run out of water. Zheng Xiang and the others only had half a water bag left.

"Zheng Xiang, I remember that Mr. Zheng used to go hunting in the mountains for three to five days. He should be able to find water sources. I don't know if you can."

Niu Tieshi had no choice. A person could go without food for two or three days, but he had to drink water. However, his wife reminded him that Mr. Zheng could hunt and find water sources.
