Chapter 931 Then none of you should sit.
The bundle contained dry rations and a gourd for water, for their use on the journey.
Before leaving with his bundle on his back, Yushu's father gave his little daughter some final instructions.
Every night after we stop, I make sure to bring him some dry food and water.
He only left after seeing his little girl timidly agree.
The villagers breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the two walk away.
Meanwhile, Bai Song, standing at a distance, comforted the coughing soldier.
After calming them down, I returned to the carriage.
After all that commotion, no one was in the mood to eat anymore.
After packing my things, I got up and continued on my way.
However, when they continued their journey, the group split into several sections.
At the very front, of course, were Lu Qingqing's three carriages.
Further back are the villagers.
Closely following the villagers were the soldiers led by Bai Song.
Finally, they followed sparsely among those who were coughing.
Among them were soldiers and villagers.
They were also some distance apart from each other.
From the moment we set off, the coughing at the very back of the group never stopped.
The soldiers at the front, hearing the cough, became frightened and quickened their pace.
Those who cough already have little energy.
Even walking normally is difficult, let alone keeping up with the soldiers' pace.
Everyone had a difficult time.
After walking for a while, Elm Tree's father and elder brother started coughing and had trouble breathing.
They wanted to go forward and sit down on the cart that the elm tree woman was pushing to rest.
But the soldiers behind them shouted at them as they tried to approach.
The two were startled and stopped in their tracks. Seeing that the people behind them were about to catch up, they had no choice but to continue walking forward.
At this moment, Elm Tree Father noticed Elm Tree Mother sitting on the carriage shaft behind.
He immediately stopped and waited for the carriage to approach.
When the carriage arrived, he sternly told her to get down.
Looking at the old man with his sharp words, Elm Tree Mother felt a little scared.
She lived with this man for most of her life, and was beaten for most of her life.
Now, they dare not disobey.
However, she was worried about her youngest son in the train carriage.
"Honey, I'm getting off the bus now."
However, the elm tree was very sick.
Every now and then, I have to change his wet towel to cool him down.
Oh, and there are other soldiers with coughs and fevers, they need to be taken care of as well.
Do you remember...?
Yushu's father was very impatient with her rambling.
"Alright, stop babbling."
You get down, I'll sit on top.
You should still do the housework!
When Elm Tree Mother heard this, she became anxious.
The cough I had just managed to suppress has started again.
The soldier sitting next to her, who was driving the carriage, saw her coughing so badly that he stepped aside and moved away.
At the same time, stop the carriage.
Upon seeing this, Elm Tree Father's face lit up with joy, and he immediately pulled Elm Tree Mother down.
Then, you have to climb up.
The movement was too vigorous, and I couldn't help but cough again.
Upon seeing this, the soldier glared and shouted.
"Who gave you permission to go in!"
As he spoke, he looked at Elm Tree Mother.
"Since your man won't let you sit, then you two should both walk!"
I would stop the carriage every quarter of an hour or so.
Come up here and tidy up for your son and the people inside, understand?
Elm Tree Mother coughed and nodded.
Seeing that his good fortune was about to fall through, Elm Tree Father was in a hurry to climb up.
The soldier sneered and kicked the man hard, sending him crashing down.
Just kidding, both of them are sick.
Letting them sit next to you is like an old man eating poison; they're just asking for trouble.
To be honest, if Boss Bai hadn't insisted that he continue driving, he would have already returned to the front of the line.
Because of what Boss Bai had said earlier, he couldn't just kick Elm Tree Girl off the bus.
This is a perfect excuse to kick people out.
After being kicked to the ground, Yushu's father clutched his chest, coughing and crying out in pain.
But the soldier driving the carriage didn't even glance at him before driving it away.
Yushu's father was cursing viciously when the soldiers who followed behind him heard him and kicked him again.
Now he's completely obedient.
He lay on the ground for a while to catch his breath, then coldly ordered Elm Tree Mother to come and help him up, and the two continued walking forward.
At this moment, Lu Qingqing, who was at the very front of the group, was unaware of the commotion that was unfolding behind her.
Seeing the three roads ahead, she was unsure which way to go and had to stop the carriage.
He took out a map from his pocket and began comparing it with the surrounding terrain.
However, the map in her hand was not as detailed as modern maps.
This map only marks mountains, rivers, lakes, cities, or large towns.
This kind of path isn't shown on the map.
Seeing that the group hadn't moved, Bai Song drove up to inquire about the situation.
After learning more, I went up and looked at the map.
But since it's not marked on the map, there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Just as the two were about to explore all three roads.
Two women emerged from the women in the east courtyard, who were mingling with the villagers.
Ruyue led a woman forward and said:
"Brother Lu, my sister's hometown is around here."
If you want to go to the east dock, you have to take the middle road.
"Xiaohua, tell Brother Lu and the others which way these three roads lead."
Xiaohua nodded and stepped forward to explain clearly where each of the three paths led.
Bai Song was very pleased to hear that she spoke so logically and clearly.
With someone who knows the way, they don't have to take detours.
They immediately called out to Xiaohua, wanting her to sit in their carriage.
Xiao Hua looked at him and Yan Xu, shook her head, and insisted on going with her sisters.
Seeing this, Bai Song did not insist.
Lu Qingqing saw Ruyue and Xiaohua, whose faces were completely covered by masks, and nodded to them.
After the two returned to the group, they drove the carriage toward the small path in the middle.
After walking for a while, we indeed saw the lake that Xiaohua had mentioned.
The lake is full of water due to the melting snow.
This was the first water source they had encountered on their journey.
Lu Qingqing pulled the carriage over to the side of the road and called everyone to get down and fetch water.
The villagers pushing the carts and the soldiers hurrying along were all in pretty good condition.
But the soldiers following behind and the Elm family looked to be in very poor condition.
Several people's faces were already burning red, and they looked really bad.
Upon seeing this, Bai Song's expression turned somewhat grave.
In the morning, he ordered someone to prepare a day's worth of medicinal soup for Zhou Peng and the others.
Because these soldiers suddenly started coughing, the extra medicine was given to them first.
But after taking the medicine, these people's symptoms not only did not improve, but actually seemed to get worse!
Bai Song had already made a judgment in his mind, but he didn't say anything.
He instructed Yan Xu to arrange for the soldiers who were particularly ill to be moved into the carriage.
After Yan Xu made the arrangements, he then ordered his soldiers to go down and fetch water.
At this moment, Lu Qingqing, Old Man Zhuang, and Sun Yue also went down to fetch some water.
Of course, she had secretly replaced the water she fetched with water from her spatial dimension.
Seeing Xiaobai straining against the bucket, she quickly stepped forward, took Xiaobai's special wooden basin, and poured water into it.
Watching it gulp down the water, I poured water for the other horse as well.
Other families with horses follow a similar process.
While the horse was drinking water, he went down to fetch more water.
Families with horse-drawn carriages, thinking the water here was clean, fetched more than they should.
Those who used carts didn't collect any more water hyacinths after filling their water hyacinths.
They were used to living at home, and even during the driest times, the village never lacked drinking water.
