When the villagers heard that they were going into the mountains to find food, they didn't care about being sad. They quickly packed their things and hurriedly followed Chen Changli.

After walking for half a day, they finally reached the foot of the mountain.

Seeing the potholes at the foot of the mountain, Chen Changli knew that this place had been visited by refugees.

However, no one would enter the deep mountains. He immediately took the hunters to prepare some things and then took the young people into the deep mountains.

Wan Shufang wasn't worried about him, but she didn't want to stay at the foot of the mountain waiting for him to come back.

Besides, she took out a lot of herbs before. If she takes out some herbs in the future, a thoughtful person will find some problems just by thinking about it.

After thinking for a while, she took Wu Qiaoyue to the hillside and picked some herbs that were already withered.

This deep mountain should have a good geographical location, and last year's rainfall was particularly abundant, so there are many herbs that grow relatively long here.

Wan Shufang picked it and went further in. After a while, she found the leaves of kudzu root.

At first she thought she had seen it wrong, but after careful observation for a while she realized that she had seen it right.

There was a surprise on her face, just because there was a large piece of kudzu in front of her.

Although the leaves are withered, the kudzu root buried in the ground is food.

She quickly stood up and shouted down the mountain: "Village chief, I found kudzu root. Please bring someone to dig it!"

"What did you say?" The village chief thought he was hallucinating and couldn't help asking. When he got a positive answer, he quickly called people to go up the mountain to dig kudzu roots.

The villagers who stayed at the foot of the mountain went crazy when they heard that there was Kudzu.

They are not men and cannot hunt, but they are good at digging.

They randomly broke off a piece of stick, aimed in one direction and started digging kudzu.

Everyone was busy for a while and quickly dug out nearly dozens of kilograms of kudzu root. The family shared half a kilogram and a kilogram, and then just kept it in their mouths to make their stomachs feel full. They could last for a few days.

With something to eat as a base, everyone's uneasiness was calmed down.

But because everyone is hungry now, the village chief suggested that everyone use kudzu to pad their stomachs first.

Everyone was really hungry, and the children were swallowing saliva constantly.

They also felt sorry for their children, so they cooked one and let the children have a taste.

Although Wang Xiaohui also felt sorry for her children, she cared more about herself.

When Wan Shufang was busy treating the injuries of the villagers, she secretly glanced at the carriage.

Although the carriage was filled with sacks, she believed they were grain.

Now seeing everyone starting to cook something to eat, she secretly avoided Chen Xiyun, grabbed a few handfuls of grain from the sack of the carriage and put it into her pocket, then hurriedly dragged the child and took the water bag and ran to the farther place. Place to cook rice.

"Wang Xiaohui, what are you cooking? Why does it smell so good?" Aunt Wang, who came out to relieve herself, smelled the smell of rice and followed the smell to find Wang Xiaohui.

She stared straight at the cooked rice in the half-broken jar, wanting to grab it and put it in her mouth.

"Nothing is cooked." Wang Xiaohui was startled when she heard her voice. She didn't care that the rice was not yet cooked, so she reached out and grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth.

The uncooked rice was a little hot, and she burst into tears. Her mouth was blistered, but she was unwilling to spit it out.

Aunt Wang licked her lips and said urgently: "Hasn't your family's food been robbed?"

How could Wang Xiaohui tell the truth if she wasn't stupid? She said in a sharp voice: "That's it. I hid it secretly. It was gone after I finished eating."

After she finished speaking, she left in a panic.

After coming back, she happened to see Wan Shufang returning with Wu Qiaoyue. She felt very guilty and did not dare to face them directly. She huddled next to the carriage with her child in her arms.

Seeing that something was wrong with her expression, Wan Shufang didn't have time to think too much now, so she took Wu Qiaoyue to cook kudzu root, trying to keep her family in sync with the villagers.

But after Wang Xiaohui left, Aunt Wang threw herself on the ground, stuck her head into the half-broken jar and licked it with her tongue.

The aroma of the rice felt on her tongue, as if she had eaten the rice herself.

But her stomach was still growling with hunger. She licked the jar clean and stared dimly in the direction where Wang Xiaohui left.

She didn't know what happened, but her expression gradually became angry and sad.

Then she picked up the jar and walked back like a zombie.

Time passed bit by bit and soon came to You hour, and the people who went into the mountains to hunt also came back with a few skinny deer tied up.

Everyone became happy when they saw the deer.

The village chief decided to eat a deer tonight, then have a good night's rest and continue on the road the next day.

Everyone cheered, and at dawn the next day, everyone headed to Liangcheng with a sense of hope.

After walking for two days and two nights, the villagers were very tired. What made them most nervous was that the water they brought out was almost running out.

"Over the mountain in front of us, we can see Liangcheng."

Fortunately, after walking for another half day, Chen Changli saw a familiar mountain and immediately told everyone the good news.

The eyes of the villagers who were immersed in their journey were numb. After hearing the good news, they quickly raised their heads and looked steadily ahead.

After watching for a long time, they cried and laughed and sped up on their way.

Chen Changli and his family were left behind.

Old Master Shen's family has also been traveling with the Chen family these days.

Because of the grief of the villagers, although the two families were very close to each other, they never spoke once.

Now when he heard that Liangcheng was coming, Master Shen hurriedly searched for Chen Changli.

Seeing him holding Wan Shufang with one hand, asking her to rely all her strength on him, and then holding the horse with the other hand, he slowly walked forward.

That tall and straight figure stood out even among the refugees, and the speculation in Old Master Shen's mind became more and more active.

After thinking about it, he still didn't go to Chen Changli now.

He planned to test him after arriving in Liangcheng.

Who would have thought that when a group of them arrived in Liangcheng, they not only bumped into many refugees, but were also turned away by the prefect of Liangcheng.

"Village chief, didn't you say it would be fine once we reach Liangcheng? Why doesn't Liangcheng let us in?"

"We encountered so many dangers along the way. We thought we could breathe a sigh of relief when we arrived at Liangcheng, but we didn't expect that we couldn't even enter the city gate."

"Uuuu, the man in charge of my family died miserably. Village chief, you must give us an explanation."

"What does it have to do with the village chief? Isn't this all caused by Wan Shufang? If you want someone to explain, you should go to Wan Shufang!"

The villagers suddenly started wailing because they could not enter the city. They were unwilling to vent the despair and pain they had been holding in their hearts for the past few days, so they clamored for the village chief to give an explanation.

In the end, I don’t know who mentioned Wan Shufang, and the villagers who broke down suddenly glared at Wan Shufang’s family.

A woman with a haggard and pale face suddenly rushed out.

She rushed towards Wan Shufang with clear eyes, and she looked so angry that Wan Shufang had done something outrageous, which made her want to get rid of him quickly.

"Wan Shufang, please give my husband his life."
