Chapter 134 Cooling down
After Chi Sheng left, Nanzhi looked up at the sky.
She didn't know what was going on, but she always felt like something was wrong.
"It's getting late, let's leave tomorrow morning." After Mother Lin finished speaking, she directed her two sons to park the mule cart. Finally, the four carts were gathered together before she nodded with satisfaction.
"Everyone is sleeping in the car at night, so don't spread mats on the ground to avoid another hailstorm."
At night, Nanzhi hugged Shen Zhiyu and lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep no matter what.
"Auntie, can't you sleep?" The little guy huddled in Nanzhi's arms, raised his head and whispered.
"Zhiyu, do you miss your father?" Nanzhi fanned Zhiyu with a fan, her voice hoarse.
"I want to." The little guy's voice was a little muffled. He only said one word and fell asleep slowly.
Nanzhi looked out from the small window next to the carriage. There were tiny stars shining in the sky. He fanned the little guy with one hand and held his head in a daze with the other.
Why is it me?
Just thinking about this question, Nanzhi also fell asleep.
Suddenly feeling a little cold at night, Nanzhi shivered and took out the quilt.
She stretched out her hand, only to touch nothing, and then she suddenly opened her eyes.
cold?
Why is it cold?
It was obviously still very hot before going to bed...
Sitting up in the dark night, Nanzhi felt a gust of cold wind blowing as soon as she opened the car curtain, which made her sneeze.
She hurriedly lowered the car curtain. Before Nanzhi could react, she stretched out her hand again and felt the cold wind, which brought her back to her senses.
He quickly covered him with Zhiyu's quilt, and then he put on his coat and got out of the mule cart.
The curtain opened and closed, and the two old hens in the basket shook themselves when the cold wind blew, and came closer.
When Nanzhi got out of the car, he saw his two brothers sitting aside in a daze.
"Big brother and second brother?" Nanzhi shouted softly.
"Fat Ya is awake too?" Lin Yicheng responded and waved her over.
"What's going on this morning? Why is it so cool?" Nanzhi rubbed his eyes and sat next to his two brothers.
"According to the date, today is already the sixth day of October. It should be cooler."
Lin Ercheng couldn't help but feel a little worried as he spoke.
Although they brought coats and quilts, the refugees at the foot of the mountain did not.
If the temperature drops suddenly, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful down there for the next two days.
Naturally, Nanzhi also thought of this, and his heart tightened.
The three brothers and sisters only sat and blew in the wind for a while before returning to the car. They had to rush on their way tomorrow morning.
There was a commotion on the road down the mountain.
Xiao Qi hugged her sister and huddled under a tree, looking at the crazy crowd in front of them who were desperately trying to snatch the clothes off the corpses and tried their best to protect her sister.
"Yueyue, don't be afraid, my brother will protect you. Be obedient and don't make a sound."
Xiao Qi stared at them warily and spoke in a low voice.
Yueyue was protected from the cold wind by being protected in her arms. Now she knew there was danger and only nodded cautiously.
There was no bark on the tree trunk, and Xiao Qi slowly moved her feet to take her sister and hide in the bushes.
Because Yueyue had tuberculosis, he was afraid that the bumps on the road would make her uncomfortable, so he prepared a piece of clothing for her to cushion before fleeing.
Although Wang Jingzhi pushed the cart away at this moment, the clothes were left behind by them.
After quietly taking a look and finding that no one noticed them, Xiaoqi took off the clothes tied around his waist, carefully covered his sister and then whispered: "Yueyue, be good, go to bed first, my brother is watching over you, don't be afraid. "
The little girl was already sick and was frightened by the scene just now. When she heard her brother's words, she held his hand and fell asleep.
Seeing her sister's dirty little face leaning against her, Xiao Qi raised her hand to wipe the tears from her eyes.
The man outside the crowd was looking around, and he had clearly seen the two cubs just now.
At this moment, everyone can worry about other things, it just happens to be their own opportunity to take action.
After looking for a long time, he couldn't find the two cubs. The man couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He just rubbed his arms and cursed secretly and went to the side to rest.
I haven't seen them eat all day today. Even if they run, they won't be able to get far. It won't be too late to find them tomorrow morning.
The crowd scrambled for a while, until all the corpses on the ground were plucked out, and only the naked body was visible.
When they fled the famine, they only wanted to settle down in Xincheng, and the weather was extremely hot at that time, so no one brought thick clothes. In the past, they only had to find ways to fill their stomachs, but today there was a hailstorm. , and even the temperature has dropped a lot.
The first person to take off the dead man's clothes was an old woman, but now she only got a piece of cloth to wrap around her neck.
There was a cold wind blowing all night long, and Xiaoqi didn't dare to sleep all night while holding Yueyue in her arms. In the morning, she couldn't stand it any longer, so she drifted off to sleep for a while.
Less than half an hour later, the little boy was woken up again by bursts of gasping and moaning.
Afraid of scaring her sister in her arms, Xiao Qi covered her ears with her two small hands while quietly looking out.
At dawn, the refugees packed their few bags and began to move forward with exhausted steps.
Their eyes were lifeless and they looked like empty shells.
There are many naked people lying on the ground. Some of them have become very weak due to long-term malnutrition. Yesterday at noon, they were hit by hailstones and suffered many injuries. The night suddenly cooled down, and I was stripped naked and died last night.
Looking at those people, Xiao Qi turned pale.
Because he saw a woman's thigh being dug with a big hole.
Although the body was deliberately turned, Xiao Qi, who was hiding in the bushes, had a clear look...
Thinking of a possibility, Xiao Qi felt a twitching sensation in her stomach. She wanted to vomit, but she couldn't even vomit out the sour water because she hadn't eaten anything for a day.
The Lin family and the Shen family halfway up the mountain also woke up.
"Weird, why is it still chilly today?" Aunt Guihua said and rubbed her arms.
In the past, she would have liked to just wear an undershirt, but why was it still a little cold now that she had added a thin coat?
"Mom, hurry up and add another piece of clothing." Shen Miaomiao said as she spoke and pulled out two thicker pieces of clothing, handing one to her sister-in-law and the other to her mother-in-law.
The temperature has come down, and Nanzhi slept better last night. Now when she wakes up, she feels happy.
When the weather gets cooler, they can travel much faster.
After feeding two hens some pancake residue, Nanzhi collected the eggs and got out of the car.
Now there are sixteen eggs, even if there are really many of them, one is enough for each of them.
Thinking about it, Nanzhi is not ink. Anyway, you may not be able to find a chance to boil eggs when you go down the mountain. It is better to share the eggs with each other before setting off now, and to replenish some energy. Do whatever you want, and cook them in a small pot. The eggs are ready in a quarter of an hour.
Zhiyu also carried the eggs in her clothes and distributed them one by one, which moved the Shen family.
They were dragging the Lin family along the way. Their mules' legs were longer than their donkey's, so they walked a little slower all the way.
After breakfast, the group started wandering down the mountain again.
