The child was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to chew.

The old woman forced the child to swallow it while shedding tears.

Suddenly, her arm touched something hard. When she picked it up, she found that it was a leather water bottle and a small bag of dry food, neatly wrapped in coarse cloth.

When was this given?

The old woman was startled and quickly stood up and looked around. Indeed, there was no one in sight.

Apart from the piece of bread that the man just gave him, how did this pot of water and this bag of dry food appear?

The child in her arms moved as she stood up. The old woman had no time to think deeply. Looking at the life-saving thing in front of her, she quickly opened the kettle and poured it into the child's mouth.

The child hadn't had water for a long time. After taking a sip of water, he coughed violently twice, then slowly opened his eyes.

The old woman's hands holding the child couldn't help but tremble. Her grandson woke up. Great!

After walking for another hour in the dark, Wang Dafu led them to a small road. Someone nearby asked in confusion, "Brother Dafu, why are we going this way? We have never been on this road before."

Wang Dafu whispered, "I specifically asked my father about this route. It allows us to avoid the official road and take a shortcut to Migu Village. The third brother should know that his wife is from Xiaoqiao Village, and Migu Village is further inside Xiaoqiao Village."

"If we take the official road to Xiaoqiao Village, we will definitely arrive tomorrow morning, and the road is definitely very dangerous. With this small road, although it is a little difficult to walk, it is safe enough!"

"The purpose of our operation this time is to transport the food back smoothly. It doesn't matter if it's a little hard and tiring. Don't dawdle. You won't go wrong if you follow me. My father has been gone for decades."

"Brother Dafu is right. Migu Village is a little further from my wife's village, but I only know the route on the official road. Since Brother Dafu has asked his father, let's just follow him. He won't harm us, right?"

Chen Yan helped to explain.

"Okay, okay, okay. I didn't say no. I just find it weird. I've never heard of this path in my life."

The person who asked the question just now scratched his head embarrassedly.

The boy next to him opened the kettle and took two sips of water, then licked his lips and laughed at him, "You don't even know the way to town, how can you know this road?"

"Don't you know that you shouldn't expose someone's shortcomings? If you say anything more, I'll ask..."

"Okay, just ask."

The long night seemed to pass quickly amidst the jokes among a few people.

When it was almost dawn, Chen Yan and his group had stopped ten miles away from Migu Village, preparing to wait for Gao Yingming and Chen Jixiang to arrive before entering the village together.

But after waiting for an hour and a half, no one showed up, and everyone started to worry.

Because the two teams were separated by an hour, and they still hadn't arrived after waiting for an hour and a half, something must have happened!

Chen Yan was worried, so he called Chen Ping and two other people to go and take a look alone. He asked Wang Dafu to lead the rest of the people to hide in the bushes nearby so as not to be seen.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of the car and the people. I'll be waiting for you to come back here."

Chen Yan knew that Wang Dafu was reliable, so he didn't say much. He picked up his weapon and went back.

........

Gao Yingming did encounter some troubles.
