Fast-paced era: a warm and leisurely life

Chapter 464 The Orphan Abandoned by the Times 1

Gu Nuanyi limped back to the room, holding her little butt.

After washing my hands with water from the space, I slowly drank half a cup of spiritual spring water.

I put down the cup only after I realized that I couldn't bear it any longer.

Gu Nuanyi looked at the small bag of rice on the ground and recalled what the old man had said.

"You can't take me away. Does that mean everyone in the village has to leave?"

She was originally a 6-year-old girl, and no one in the village would discuss anything with her.

So in the original body's memory, there was no such thing as people in the village leaving.

Gu Nuanyi dispersed her spiritual power and looked towards the village, and found that everyone was anxiously packing things onto the cart.

Load everything you can take away onto the cart

"Lao He, are we really not going to take her with us?"

Lao He paused and sighed deeply: "How can we take care of her? We can hardly protect ourselves along the way, how can we protect her? I left a small bag of rice for her. Whether she can survive depends on her own luck."

"That little bit of rice won't last for two days. Leaving her alone in the village is also..."

"Do you think we can save her from death by taking her with us? She was still unconscious when I went to see her. How can we take her with us?" Lao He looked at his son who was playing outside the house and said in a low voice, "If we really want to take her with us, think about what will happen to a little girl without food along the way. I know you are soft-hearted, but we have to protect our son too!"

The woman's face turned pale, and she obviously thought of the end, but she still had a fluke and thought that the people in the village were not so inhumane.

"The people in our village are all very nice. They shouldn't treat her like a sheep..."

Lao He looked up at the woman with a look of disappointment and threw the clothes in his hand into her arms: "People are starving to death, how can you still talk about humanity? Hurry up and pack your things!"

Seeing that Lao He was angry, the woman did not dare to mention it anymore and quickly packed up the things she could take away.

Lao He threw the last bag of luggage onto the cart and said, "Okay, let's go! Don't be so heartless. How can we take care of others if we can't even take care of ourselves? Let's just survive first."

Lao He pushed the cart, and the woman carried her son to the cart: "Son, sit still and don't move."

Then he pushed the cart towards the village entrance. Other families did the same. Those who had carts pushed them, and those who didn't put their things on a shoulder pole or tied them directly to their bodies.

Gu Nuanyi looked at the small cloth bag by the door, picked it up and weighed it, it was about 2 taels.

At this time when everyone is hungry and hungry, the village chief has done his best to take out 2 taels of rice.

What the village chief said was also true. A girl who had a fever and needed care would indeed be treated as a two-legged sheep by others on the road of fleeing famine.

If you are not careful, you will be easily attacked by the evil hands. Even if the village chief and his family want to protect you, they can't do it.

The 2 taels of rice in his hand were heavier than 2 jin or 20 jin. Gu Nuanyi put the 2 taels of rice into the space.

He took out a talisman drawn by Taoist Lu in his previous life from the space, folded it up, and sent it to the village chief's son with his mental power.

This amulet saved his son's life at a critical moment, which was considered as a repayment for the 2 taels of rice.

After Gu Nuanyi woke up, she took the two taels of rice, so she had to repay the favor.

At this time, all the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village.

Lao He cleared his throat and shouted, "There are many people fleeing famine along the way. We are all from the same village. Let's help each other. Everyone, take your belongings and take good care of the elderly and children at home. We are leaving now!"

Everyone responded with a serious look on their faces, pushing carts and carrying luggage towards the outside of the village.

There were so many people and luggage that the team moved very slowly. It took a while before half of them walked out of the village.

One of them looked around the team and asked, "Hey? Why don't we see the child from the Gu family? Didn't we notify her?"

The team was silent, no one spoke up.

Everyone knows how much trouble it takes to take care of a sick child.

There was still some food at home, so it was okay to share some with others.

Nowadays, everyone has little food. Their own children can't even get enough to eat, so how can they care about other people's children?

Seeing that the village chief did not call anyone, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The second-rate guy at the end of the team rolled his eyes when he heard what the man said.

Pulling his friends to discuss

"Let's go find the child and take her with us. If we really have nothing to eat, we can still..." He also laughed triumphantly.

The fox friends immediately understood what the second-rate guy meant.

The two of them quietly left the team and headed towards Gu's house.

Gu Nuanyi saw the two sneaking over through her mental power.

A few traps were set up using ropes, stones, and barrels, and then we slipped into the space.

I took a bag of potato chips and sat in front of the big screen to watch the fun.

Seeing this, the little thundercloud also floated down from the sky, lying on Gu Nuanyi's shoulder and watching the big screen together.

The second-rate guy walked outside the Gu family courtyard, knocked on the door and shouted loudly: "Gu family girl, brother is here to take you away"

Seeing no sound from inside the house, the second-rate guy knocked on the door even harder: "Gu family girl, everyone has left, the village chief asked us to call you."

Another person shouted: "If you don't come out, we won't wait for you. Then you will be the only one left in the village."

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound in the room.

Another person whispered, "No sound, could he have left?"

"I didn't see her in the team. Where can a sick girl go? Open the door and take a look."

The scoundrel pushed the door open with all his might.

The mechanism on top of the door was touched directly, and a wooden barrel filled with stones flew directly towards the second-rate man.

The second-rate guy's pupils shrank, and he quickly squatted down to hide.

But the person behind him didn't dodge and was hit by the barrel full of stones.

"Ah!!" Another person rolled on the ground, holding his forehead.

The second-rate guy turned around and saw the big bump on his friend's head. He patted his chest with lingering fear.

Luckily, he reacted quickly and dodged it, otherwise he would have been the one with the big bump on his forehead.

The other person wailed on the ground for a long time before getting up, holding his forehead with red eyes and looking at the yard.

He gnashed his teeth and said, "When I catch her, I will eat her flesh and drink her blood!!!"

The man pushed the scoundrel aside and strode into the yard.

The rage had burned away all his rationality. All he could think about now was catching Gu Nuanyi and torturing her to vent his anger! !

Therefore, he did not see the hemp rope on the ground, and he tripped and fell to the ground, with his hand directly pressing on the trap.

"Ah!!" The screams spread far away

The people at the entrance of the village all looked over and asked, "Who is screaming? Who didn't catch up?"

"The team is missing the second-rate guy and his friends"

"As for those two, don't worry about them. Without these two troublemakers, we can be much safer on the road..."

The villagers discussed it for a while and then stopped caring about it.

The families of the two men also walked at the end with their heads down, carrying their belongings, and none of them stayed behind to wait for them.
