“Sir, we’ve contributed the food. Can you leave the carriage for us? There are so many old, weak, sick, and disabled people here. We really can’t move.”

Qiu Yongkang quickly bowed while old master Qiu ordered his men to hold back Zhong Yong and Li Daniu.

There were thousands of soldiers and horses from the Wan family Army in Li city, so their resistance was like an egg hitting a stone.

Ji Shuisheng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. The great Xia Kingdom’s Army didn’t protect the civilians and came to s.n.a.t.c.h the food from the victims. It was unforgivable if the Imperial court didn’t fall.

Su Qing walked over and pulled Ji Shuisheng back. She only said one word to him,

“Endure.”

Ji Shuisheng was having a hard time holding it in. Holding it was like a knife to the head. The veins on his forehead were popping, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his joints were turning white. With new and old grudges mixed, he only wanted to kill now.

Su Qing felt the muscles on his arms tense up. She waved the handkerchief stained with knockout powder at Ji Shuisheng’s nose for safety reasons. Ji Shuisheng was caught off guard and breathed it in. He stared at Su Qing as he fell to the ground.

“Brother Shuisheng, what’s wrong?”

Qiu Yue had been staring at the two of them. When she saw Su Qing pulling Ji Shuisheng’s arm, her face turned pale with anger. Then, she saw Su Qing waving her handkerchief at Ji Shuisheng, and he fell unconscious.

“What did you do to him? Now that the grain is about to be removed, we’re still counting on brother Shuisheng to get the grain back!”

Qiu Yue couldn’t care less about her fear of Su Qing and scolded her angrily.

“You talk too much.”

Su Qing waved her handkerchief at her again, and Qiu Yue fainted as well. Aunt Qiu quickly came over and pleaded,

“Su Qing, Qiu Yue is insensible …”

Aunt Qiu helped Qiu Yue up awkwardly. She was also angry at Qiu Yue for constantly provoking Su Qing. However, Su Qing ignored her and walked past her.

Su Qing walked up to Qiu Yongkang and saw that he was still begging for mercy, but those inhumane people didn’t care. She kicked Qiu Yongkang to the ground.

When Zhong Yong saw the person who had kicked them down, he wanted to fight for his life. Su Qing walked over and pressed on his numbing point. Zhong Yong’s entire body went numb, and he could not move.

“Why are you pulling me? They’re s.n.a.t.c.hing our food.”

Zhong Yongyang’s eyes were red, but Su Qing ignored him and walked to the carriage full of food. The soldiers raised their steel knives and pointed them at Su Qing.

“Sir, you’re all fighting a b.l.o.o.d.y battle to protect our people. It’s our honor that these grains can help you, Sir.”

As Su Qing spoke, she patted the grain bags on the carriage. The leader ordered his men to put down their steel knives because Su Qing’s words pleased the ear.

“Good, sensible, much better than those people. How can the soldiers fight against the barbarians without food? I don’t understand!”

“Yes, they’re all insensible.”

Su Qing walked to another carriage filled with food and patted the bag.

“It’s your honor to be eaten by the soldiers who protect your home and country.”

The leader laughed and even praised Su Qing,

“You’re much stronger than them. Someone, drive the carriage away.”

“Take care, Sir.”

Su Qing bowed and retreated, her eyes cold as she watched them drive the carriages away.

The villagers of Peach Blossom looked at Su Qing in disbelief. They thought that she would be able to get the grain back, but who knew that she would give it up?

“Let’s go,”

Su Qing ordered after the soldiers had left. Qiu Yongkang subconsciously followed her orders.

He wanted to know what Su Qing was doing with the food bags.

Su Qing went over and woke Ji Shuisheng up with water. Ji Shuisheng looked at Su Qing with a complicated expression. This was the second time she had knocked him out.

“Next time, talk to me appropriately. I can calm down.

Ji Shuisheng wiped the water off his face and said to Su Qing awkwardly.

“Okay.”

Su Qing grunted in acknowledgment and walked past him without another word. Then, she nimbly jumped into the carriage.

“Sister, if all the food is taken away, does that mean we have no food?”

Ji Xiaoying asked Su Qing with a bitter face. Did they just get robbed by the great Xia Kingdom’s Army?

The bandits and barbarians failed, but their army did.

Ji Xiaoying was at a loss. Were these soldiers here to protect or harm the people?

“It’s fine. There’s always a way out.”

Su Qing said indifferently. She pulled on the reins of her horse and turned around to look. Seeing that the troops had regrouped, she waved her whip. Madam Li heard Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying’s words in the carriage and was filled with grief and anger. She couldn’t help but say,

“In the past, general Xiao’s Army was to protect the common people.”

“Aunt, I want to hear it. Tell me.”

Ji Xiaoying asked Madam Li out of curiosity, but Madam Li shook her head.

“What’s there to say? Good people can’t live well, while evil people live for a thousand years.”

Madam Li’s voice was filled with deep hatred. She lowered her head and held back the tears in her eyes.

“Juan Zi, I’ll heal your eyes!”

Su Qing’s sudden words raised hope in Madam Li’s heart.

“You can cure my eyes?”

“Yes, I can. I’ll prescribe you medicine when we’re resting.”

Su Qing’s voice was still cold, but it brought infinite hope to Madam Li.

She wanted to see what her son looked like now he was grown up. Did he look like brother Feng?

The food had been stolen, and the group was in a dead mood. Everyone was filled with confusion and helplessness about how to survive.

The drought in Li City wasn’t as severe as in Jin City. Gra.s.s could be seen on the roadside, and there were also small rivers that were not wide but flowed continuously, so there was no need to worry about drinking water.

With gra.s.s, there would be wild vegetables; with wild vegetables, people would not starve to death. After old master Qiu’s words of encouragement, everyone regained their confidence.

After more than ten miles from Li city, Ji Shuisheng saw that everyone was too hungry to move. It was also because of the food-s.n.a.t.c.hing incident and the trap set up by the armored Army that Ji Shuisheng led everyone away from the official road and found a quiet and flat place. The escaping team stopped as the most critical problem was filling their stomachs.

This time, there was no need for anyone to command them. Everyone took action on their own. The women went into the mountains to pick wild vegetables, the men went into the river to fish, and up the mountains to hunt. The elderly, children, and injuries remained in place.

Su Qing also followed them into the mountains to pick wild vegetables. She asked Xiao Qi to make realgar and gave some to each girl to keep.

The girls followed Su Qing closely, not daring to take a step away. They felt safe just by being by her side.

“Ah, so many snakes!”

Li Shuang’er was running to the toilet when she suddenly screamed. She was so scared that she pulled up her pants and ran out. Su Qing hurried over. Snakes could be eaten.

She went over and saw two green snakes as thick as her wrist. They were already weak from the smell of the realgar and were lying limply in the gra.s.s, not aggressive.

“Fine.”

Su Qing picked up the snake’s tail and shook it. After shaking off the dirt, she threw them into the basket and continued to look for wild vegetables.

Suddenly, she discovered a huge surprise and quickly walked over.
