The villagers who escaped first have been hiding behind Fukou Mountain for a long time, and Wei Lizheng did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately prepared to set off in a quarter of an hour.

"Let's go further, where are we going?"

Luo Dingkai was talking with several villagers. He had the same idea as Luo Dazhi before, and even ran out that night because Ma Cuihua was going to bring Luo Xiaobao out, and he never thought that he would never be able to go home again.

"I heard that the Yin family is going to Shangyun City, why don't we go too?"

"Shangyun City is too far away, can you walk there?"

"We don't have a carriage, I'm afraid we'll starve to death if we don't walk a few steps!"

"..."

Seeing that the villagers were all confused about the road ahead, Yin Miao said a few words to Wei Lizheng, Wei Lizheng looked ahead and thought for a moment, then stood up and said to the villagers: "Now we don't have to worry about getting on the road. Yuncheng, there are other counties and villages along the way, as long as they can settle down, it’s better to take one step at a time, it’s better than waiting for death in our border area.”

It makes sense for everyone to hear that they are all going from the border to the middle, and the general direction is the same. It would be nice if they could find a place to stay in advance.

Yin Miao and the two were pulled into the carriage by Wei, and then they were stuffed with two dough cakes by Wei and instructed them to eat in the carriage.

"You two must be hungry, I told your father, we will leave when you are full."

After Wei Shi whispered, he got out of the car and stayed outside.

Most of the villagers who escaped were still eating locusts that had been dried and fried for the first two months, and only a few had food, and this was the first day of their escape.

"I forgot to ask you before, is your next plan also going to Cloud City?"

Yin Miao put the noodles back into the basket in the hidden compartment of the car, and Xiao Xuan did the same.

"Exactly, that's the fortress, and the person I'm looking for is there."

Xiao Xuan replied.

"Or... If you have something to do, you can rush over first? I'm afraid our journey will be very slow."

Yin Miao felt that Xiao Xuan would just leave a few of his little helpers to them. Xiao Xuan's business was important, and they could meet again in Shangyun City.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xuan immediately rejected Yin Miao's proposal: "Some things have to wait for an opportunity."

He raised his eyes and looked at Yin Miao, who was opposite him. He had more important things to do, but the little girl in front of him didn't seem to be enlightened at all, and would only urge him to do business...

Yin Miao was obviously a little disappointed, but she didn't think much about it and stayed in the car for a while before getting off the carriage with Xiao Xuan pretending to have eaten something.

Some villagers have already started to go on the road one after another. The family has a horse-drawn carriage to drive, and it takes minutes to keep up with the villagers who are walking ahead, so Yin Bowu is slowly packing his luggage at the moment.

Yin Miao originally thought that the locust plague was the most deadly to the common people, but after walking for a while, many villagers began to become thirsty, and the several wells found along the way were all dry.

The family also found a small group of villagers resting in front, and Yin Miao could still hear the loud cry of a baby.

"I'm afraid this child can't be kept, and there is no wet nurse to follow."

Lu Mei looked sympathetically at the blushing child crying in Zhao Laosan's arms. It's fine that the child doesn't have milk, and now he can't even drink saliva. He really doesn't know how to live.

"It's your father who's sorry for you, it's your father who's sorry for your mother. If you leave, your father will accompany you to forget it."

Zhao Laosan was distressed and at a loss, the child cried for a while, and now his voice has gradually become smaller.

"The third one, I just jumped into the well over there to see, there is not a little bit of water, it's all dry!"

Zhao Man ran over from a barren field on the side of the road and said that the Zhao family is all looking for water now, but no one can find a drop of water.

"What can I do, this child is so pitiful."

Zhao Man's daughter-in-law Li Yan was also very anxious.

"Uncle Zhao, we still have some water on the carriage. If you don't dislike it, you can find something to put some water on."

Several carriages stopped by the roadside, Yin Miao got off the carriage and said.

"Girl Yin? Really? Can you really share some water with us?"

Zhao Laosan asked with red eyes.

Yin Miao nodded: "We took a water bag with us when we left, and there is still some water in it."

"Thank you so much, I'll go, I'll go and fill the water for the child!"

Zhao Man's daughter-in-law Li Yan said excitedly.

As long as there is water, you can soak the child in some dry food or boil some rice soup to feed it. Although it cannot be compared with milk, maybe the child can rely on this for a longer time.

Li Yan was taken to the back of the carriage by Yin Miao. She only took a bamboo tube to hold water. Yin Miao filled the bamboo tube without hesitation, and secretly stuffed Li Yan with some flour. Only two fist-sized cloth bags, but this already surprised Li Yan.

"Girl, this... this can't be done."

Flour itself is more valuable than other grains, and it is still at this juncture. Li Yan was in a dilemma for a while thinking of the child who was waiting to be fed in the third child's house.

"Aunt Li, it's not much, it's a piece of our heart."

Yin Miao said that although there are more nutritious things such as eggs and taro in her space, she also knew that babies who were just born could not eat those, so she only took the safest flour.

"Auntie really doesn't know what to say. I can only thank you for our third child. No matter whether the child can persevere or not, we will remember this great kindness."

Li Yan listened to the cry of the baby still coming not far away, and she didn't care to talk too much with Yin Miao. She put the small packet of flour into her sleeve and hurriedly ran towards Zhao Laosan and others. .

"I really didn't expect that the food has not been broken, and it will be broken into water first."

Yin Bowu sighed.

"Loss of water...it's even more terrifying."

Yin Miao looked at Zhao's family who was in a panic to start a fire and boil water. In fact, the drought problem existed long before the plague of locusts, but it has been neglected, and now it is getting more and more dry day by day.

In the carriage, Mrs. Zhang rubbed her lower abdomen worriedly. Hunger, locust plagues and droughts, and now there was war again, how could she be pregnant at this time? Now, looking at the situation, maybe she really can't keep her child.

"I heard that there is a town in front of it. It used to burn porcelain. Let's go and see. Maybe we can add some water."

Yin Chengyun opened the curtain and said to the family, they have only had less than a day, and the water in the bamboo tubes is all empty. Before, no one thought about saving some water. Now, looking at the surrounding villagers, the family People no longer dare to drink water casually.

"Hopefully, it's not too big. Even if there is water, it's definitely not enough."

Yin Bowu said in disapproval.
