When everyone heard that someone was coming again, they all became nervous and picked up the guy one after another.

Without Dongming Ziyu, they had no backbone and were all panicking, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Dong Chunlei ran out of the cave and asked, "How many people are here?"

The boy standing guard in the tree said: "Two, an old man and a boy of five or six years old."

When everyone heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They were frightened by the bald brother and they all became nervous.

Dong Chunlei raised his head and yelled: "You bastard! He's so startled that you're trying to scare people!"

He turned to everyone and said, "Let's all leave. Go and do whatever you need to do."

But he himself stood on the only way to the cave, stretching his neck and looking down the mountain. One was hoping that Dongming Ziyu and the others would come back quickly, and the other was to see if the old and the young would come here soon.

Maybe they saw the road they cut when they came to the cave, and the old man and the young boy followed the path and came here.

The boy on guard shouted: "They are coming! They are coming this way!"

Dong Chunlei, Mr. Dong called two young adults who were working near the cave and went up to them.

I saw that the old man must be over sixty, and his waist was stooped. He looked like a five-year-old child, and his eyes were staring blankly, as if he had been stimulated by something.

However, both of them were well-dressed. They were all made of fine cotton without any patches. Their skin was quite fair and they were not skinny, which showed that their family conditions were good.

However, neither of them had any luggage. When they got closer, they saw blood stains on their clothes.

Dong Chunlei said: "It should have been robbed on the road."

When the old man and the young man heard the voices, they looked up and saw that they were holding weapons in their hands. They turned around and ran away as if they saw something sinister.

The child also let out a scream of terror, looked completely arrogant, held his head and ran rampant. After only running a few steps, he fell.

The old man quickly picked up the child and ran, but the child was no longer young. He carried the child down the hill to block his sight, and he tripped after a while. He protected the child in his arms, rolled a few times, and stopped there after being blocked by weeds and shrubs.

Not moving anymore.

Dong Chunlei didn't expect it to be like this and was a little confused.

They have always been afraid of others. Since when did others become so afraid of them?

Mr. Dong looked at the two people, "They seem to be fainted, we don't care?"

Dong Chunlei thought for a while, sighed, and said: "We are not short of water now, and there is food in the mountains. If you can help, please help."

Mr. Dong said: "Then let Wulang's mother take your pulse first to see if there is any plague."

Dong Chunlei thought it made sense and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! This is how it should be in harmony, and this is how it should be in harmony!"

Mr. Dong asked a few young adults to get down and carried one old and one young on their backs.

Shangguan Ruoli was called over and took the pulse of his grandfather and grandson. "If you don't have the plague, you just have to be frightened and hungry."

After feeding them fried noodles prepared with Lingquan water, their condition improved.

The child woke up first. When he saw so many people, he cried "Wow", got up and ran out.

Higashi Arita put his long arms around his waist and picked him up. He was still crying with his eyes closed and his hands and feet were making running movements.

When the old man heard the child's cry, he suddenly woke up and struggled to get up, "Rui'er! Rui'er!"

But the little boy couldn't hear any sound at all, and seemed to feel that he was still running away desperately.

The old man hugged the child tightly, and he led him to sit down on the ground. He patted the child's back to comfort him, "Rui'er, it's okay, it's okay. Grandpa is here. Grandpa is protecting you, ah?"

"

When the child heard his great-grandfather's familiar voice, he gradually became quiet, hugged the old man's neck and cried loudly, "Great-grandpa, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

The old man also burst into tears, "Rui'er is not afraid, Rui'er is not afraid, wuwu..."

The grandfather and grandson hugged each other and cried, which made many people's eyes turn red, and some with shallow tear pits also started crying.

After the two of them had cried enough and vented their emotions, Mr. Dong asked someone to give them a glass of water.

The old man drank the water and held his little great-grandson in his hand to salute everyone: "Thank you all for saving my life."

Mr. Dong waved his hand, "You're welcome, they are all people who have left their hometowns."

He didn't like to talk at first, and he didn't want to ask more questions at this time. He could only do the things on the road to escape, and it was sad to say it.

Mrs. Qian asked: "Did you encounter a mob? Are you separated from your family?"

The old man said: "The little old man's surname is Zhong, and he is a member of the Communist Party of China with a small fortune. The second son and the youngest son are both officials in the capital, and the little old man is staying with the elder son's family in his hometown.

Although there was a drought, the family could still live on. Unexpectedly, the victims came and first robbed the food in the fields, and then robbed our yard to eat the rich. In the fight, many servants died, and two of my grandsons lost their lives.

.

We decided to go to the capital to visit our relatives. Unexpectedly, we encountered a plague on the way, and our eldest son, daughter-in-law, and several descendants were all gone. It rained all night, and a mob robbed our carriage.

The remaining guards and two grandsons tried their best to stop the mob, allowing the little old man and the youngest great-grandson to escape. We, old and young, couldn't walk anymore, so we wanted to hide in the mountains and find some food.

Something to eat.”

Zhong Rui started crying again, "Father, mother, grandparents, Rui'er wants her parents! Wuwuwu..."

Old Man Zhong wiped his tears and said: "This child's parents had their heads cut off in order to protect him, which frightened the child."

Zhong Rui raised his face and cried loudly, "Father, mother! Brothers and sisters! Where are you! Rui'er doesn't want to live, Rui'er wants you to live! Wuwu..."

"Rui'er, great grandpa's great grandson! Woo hoo..."

The father and son hugged each other and cried again, desperate, miserable, helpless...

Mr. Dong's eyes were also red, and he glared at Mrs. Qian, "What are you asking? You are the only one who is wondering!"

Mrs. Qian wiped her tears with her palms, blew her nose and wiped the soles of her shoes, and said, "Aren't you afraid that they are bad people? You have to ask clearly about their origins."

Mr. Dong said to Rong Chuan: "Didn't you also go to the capital to visit your relatives? You happened to be traveling with these two people."

Rong Chuan nodded, "Okay."

Wu Lang came up to Zhong Rui holding Tang Yuan'er and said as if offering a treasure: "Look, this is a little white ferret. My sister named it Tang Yuan'er. Doesn't it sound good?"

Zhong Rui snuggled into Old Man Zhong's arms, twitching constantly and timidly looking at the little white ferret, looking very interested.

The other children gathered around, chattering and asking questions. The childish words and innocent and cheerful laughter gradually calmed down Zhong Rui, relaxed his nerves, and occasionally he could say a word.

It was getting dark at noon, and everyone started cooking. We didn't know when we would go out, so we didn't dare to touch the remaining food. We started by eating the food we could find in the mountains.

The boy standing sentry in the tree shouted, "Uncle Fourth and the others are back!"
