When packing things before departure, Jiang Songshu picked up these two rusty swords that were soaked in blood. Jiang Songshu wanted to wash them while there was a water source nearby, but Jiang Li stopped him.

He didn't understand it at first, until he met the group of deserters on the road.

The crowd, who were about to move, saw that their hands were stained with blood and could not tell whether it was human blood or animal blood. But at this time, there were no livestock anywhere.

The group of people dispersed automatically, and only then did Jiang Songshu understand Jiang Li's meaning.

"Ali, how do you know this?"

Jiang Songshu looked at Jiang Li curiously, as if he was meeting this sister for the first time.

Jiang Songshu didn't realize it himself. Along the way, he looked at Jiang Li's younger sister with more and more different eyes, far more respectful than his father.

"You still don't understand anything in this living environment, how can you think about it?" Jiang Li said lightly, and then took a step ahead of him.

Jiang Songshu touched his nose and felt that his sister was calling him stupid, but he had no proof.

Although Jiang Li and his party tried their best to take small paths, it was inevitable that they would encounter other people fleeing the famine on the road.

Passing through a group of people walking slowly, and just as they were about to leave, a carriage came speeding behind them, breaking the originally dull atmosphere.

A hoarse screaming voice pierced the silence, "Let go of my child, someone is snatching the child, save my child."

There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone was trying to avoid it. Just as the carriage was about to pass in front of Jiang Li and the others, Jiang Li threw the big knife in his hand at the wheels, and the entire carriage was overturned.

People and objects in the car fell to the ground with a crash.

There were several children with their hands and feet tied, and small bags of food. The hungry crowd immediately swarmed them.

Jiang Youli was about to scold Jiang Li for being nosy when he saw her dragging him and Zhao into the crowd to grab food.

The scene was chaotic, with quarrels, yelling, and children crying.

The three men who fell off the carriage were dizzy from the fall. When they regained consciousness, the scene in front of them was in chaos, and a lot of food on the carriage had been taken away.

Suddenly he was so angry that he pulled out the knife from his waist and roared: "Who dares to move!"

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the tall and thick-waisted man was so angry that he slashed the wooden plank of the carriage with his knife, sending sawdust flying everywhere. Some people's cheeks were scratched by flying pieces of wood.

Only then did all the deserters who were grabbing things stop what they were doing.

Jiang Li hid behind the crowd and shouted, "Kill them, and all this food will be ours! Everyone, charge!"

As he spoke, Jiang Li slashed the grain bag with a dagger and scattered it into the sky.

Hunger and fear of death made everyone's heads boil, and they all rushed forward.

Anyway, I'm going to starve to death if I don't have anything to eat, so I might as well fight for it.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Jiang Li motioned to Jiang Songshu and others to come forward and straighten the carriage together.

Jiang Songshu and others were about to participate in the chaos, but were pulled back by Jiang Li, who whispered something in his ear.

Then Jiang Li drew his knife and stepped forward. Once the deserter was in a weak position, Jiang Li went up and slashed a few times, and then withdrew.

Until he saw that the deserters were in control of the overall situation, Jiang Li looked back and saw that Jiang Songshu and others had already boarded the carriage. He rushed over, jumped on the carriage, flicked his whip, and the carriage sped away.

Throw the people behind you far away.

Mr. Jiang and Jiang Songshu placed themselves in the carriage. A total of five people, Jiang Youli, Zhao, Jiang Songshu and Jiang Baishu, were crowded together in the carriage, making it difficult to even turn around.

But at this time, the hearts of the five people were beating rapidly in their chests.

"Why did we get on the carriage?" Jiang Songshu grinned almost to his ears.

Jiang Youli touched here and there, "We still have the ability. Maybe we can reach Qingzhou faster than Boss and the others!"

Jiang Youli hummed proudly.

Mr. Jiang knocked Jiang Youli hard on the head twice, "Young Master, do you think everything will be fine now?"

After saying that, Mr. Jiang put his head forward and opened the curtain of the carriage, and said to Jiang Li who was driving his horse outside: "Ali, there may be some special markings on this carriage. It's best to find a place to stop and check."

The old man was also a person who traveled through rivers and lakes. Sure enough, after being reminded by him, Jiang Li did some inspection and found a wolf head mark on the shaft of the car.

Then Jiang Li used a dagger to eliminate it.

"Grandpa, you see, I still have to have you by my side." Jiang Lei said with a smile.

Hearing his granddaughter's words, Jiang Dacheng smiled and looked more energetic, "When you have more experience, you will also know."

Jiang Youli curled his lips, and Mrs. Zhao stepped forward, "Master, are you hungry? Ah Li, it's almost time for us to eat, right? Let's set off after eating."

Jiang Li had no objection. After what happened just now, she was indeed hungry.

Zhao and Jiang Baishu went to make a fire to cook. Jiang Baishu stood by and watched his mother cook, and also helped his mother. Who knew that his mother always liked to secretly hide food for his father.

His father is lazy and cowardly, and he doesn't know why his mother is so protective of his father. Mothers in other families protect their children, so why is it different in his family?

When there is food in the house, it is always attached to his father first. When there is fabric, he is attached to his father first to make clothes. When the clothes worn out by the father are worn out, they are given to the eldest brother. When the eldest brother wears out the clothes, they are changed and given to him.

Jiang Baishu has never worn new clothes in his whole life. Thinking this, Jiang Baishu wiped his wet eyes while squatting next to the makeshift stove made of stones.

"Why are you crying?" Jiang Li gently kicked the small cypress tree squatting there.

Jiang Baishu turned his head and looked up at his sister. By the way, he also had a sister.

His sister has been getting better recently. She takes him secretly to open a small stove and stuffs him with candy or eggs.

The gloom in Jiang Baishu's heart suddenly dissipated.

"Let's go, we have to find some more firewood." Jiang Lei greeted.

Jiang Songshu and the others were left behind to count how many things they still had. Although they had just unloaded most of the luggage onto the carriage, there were still some things missing.

With Mr. Jiang here, Jiang Li is not worried about Jiang Songshu and the others hiding their secrets.

Jiang Li and others stopped to rest in a forest, so it was easy to find firewood.

However, after drilling deep into the forest, Jiang Li was not in a hurry to collect firewood and stopped Jiang Baishu.

"Wait a minute, pick it up when you go back."

As he spoke, Jiang Li stuffed something into Jiang Baishu's mouth.

Jiang Baishu was not surprised at all. When his sister pushed it over, he opened his mouth to eat. His skillful movements showed that he had been feeding Gracilaria a lot recently.

"Sister, eat it too!"

Jiang Baishu stepped on his feet and stuffed the roasted cicadas he took out from the hidden compartment of his clothes into Jiang Li's mouth. He had caught them and roasted them during the fire.

Gracilaria didn't see what it was, but only smelled a burnt aroma. After chewing it, it was crispy and fragrant, and asked: "What is this?"

"Roasted cicadas."

"yue~"
