Koi Fubao: Being loved by everyone on the road to escape from famine

After Xiao You shook her hard, Old Mrs. Xiao seemed to hear her son calling her. She took a deep breath, her eyelids trembled slightly, and finally she slowly opened her eyes.

Her weak gaze first fell on Xiao You who was crying bitterly, and then moved to the wolf head that was smashing towards Wang.

Especially the wolf's half-open eyes, with such a cold gaze that she almost fainted again.

She pointed her shaking fingers at the wolf's head, her voice becoming hoarse with fear: "Quick, kick it away! Far away from us!"

Hearing the sound, Xiao You used all his strength without hesitation and kicked the wolf's head away.

Xiao You carefully helped Old Mrs. Xiao up and let her sit firmly against him.

After experiencing this life-and-death shock, Old Lady Xiao never dared to look towards Xiao Wei again.

Xiao Zhixue coldly took out the wolf head from the package, her eyes as cold as iron, and threw it at her without any emotion.

The actions of that stupid disaster star were undoubtedly telling everyone that she was going to put them to death in the most cruel way.

Thinking of this, endless fear surged in Old Lady Xiao's heart. She was determined not to flee the famine with that fool, otherwise she would encounter who knows what terrible disasters she would encounter in the future.

After Xiao Yunkai confirmed that the wolf's head had been kicked away and the danger was temporarily eliminated, he ran back to Wang tremblingly.

He knelt on the ground, hugged his mother and shook her, crying and calling out: "Mom, please wake up! You can't leave me. If you leave, what will I do!"

Amid Xiao Yunkai's heart-wrenching calls, Wang struggled painfully in her coma and finally woke up after a burst of violent gasping.

She covered her face in pain and tried hard to get up. When her eyes fell upon the bloody wolf head that had hit her, she collapsed to the ground again with fright, her face pale.

Wang lay on the ground for a long time before she gradually understood what had just happened in extreme fear.

She looked at Xiao Zhixue with resentment, only to see that her family was sitting around the campfire. The meat and wild vegetables in the pot had been eaten up cleanly, with not even a drop of soup left.

Although she was very angry about this, Wang no longer dared to provoke the other party, for fear that another wolf head would fall on her.

She could only suppress her anger and glare at Xiao Zhixue with gritted teeth, the flame of revenge burning in her eyes.

Zhou Shuqiong glanced across the table full of messy cups and plates. The family's satisfaction and tranquility after the meal filled the air.

She skillfully picked up the leftovers, and carrying the heavy tableware, Zhou Shuqiong walked lightly towards the winding river.

She was washing the pots and pans in the cool river water, a satisfied smile quietly forming on the corners of her mouth.

After Zhou Shuqiong washed the pots and pans until they were as clean as new, the family began to prepare to leave.

Xiao Wei originally planned to stay here for a while, taking a short nap in the warm afternoon sun to restore his strength.

However, he caught a glimpse of his mother's expectant eyes towards the uncooked wolf meat, and thinking of the concern of his elders at home for this precious food, he resolutely decided to set off as soon as possible.

After arriving at Jinguan Town, it’s not too late to find a comfortable place to rest.

Although it is still dozens of miles from here to Jinguan Town, they only need to avoid the sight of other members of the Xiao family and can stroll leisurely along the way.

Just as Xiao Wei and his family were packing their bags and preparing to embark on a new journey, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from the village: "Chen Ge'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother!"

The sound pierced the afternoon silence like an arrow, instantly making everyone's nerves tense.

Hearing the voice, Xiao Zhixue quickly turned around to look.

Not far away, a woman holding a child of four or five years old was in extreme panic.

The child in her arms had a flushed face, wide-open eyes, and his hands were waving helplessly in the air, while his feet were kicking violently, as if his throat was tightly strangled by an invisible shackle.

The woman's face was as pale as paper, with tears of despair flashing in her eyes. She anxiously patted the child's back and called out at the top of her lungs.

The villagers gathered in a circle, but were helpless and could only watch the tragedy unfold before their eyes.

Upon hearing the news, the village chief came rushing over.

He looked nervous, his eyes quickly locked on Chen Ge'er, and he anxiously asked the woman: "What did Chen Ge'er just eat? Why is this happening?"

The woman burst into tears, her voice trembling so much that she could barely form a sentence: "I just gave him a bite of the whole grain cake, but who knew... who knew he choked."

The old woman at the side, the child's grandmother, had a wrinkled face full of anxiety and pleading: "Village chief, please save my grandson. If this continues, he will choke to death."

The village chief took Chen Ge'er without hesitation and patted him on the back hard, trying to expel the food stuck in his throat.

However, no matter how hard he and the woman tried, the substance in Chen Ge'er's throat remained stubbornly stuck. The child's breathing became weaker and weaker, and he could lose his life from suffocation at any time.

This place is remote and medical resources are scarce. Faced with such a critical situation, the village chief had cold sweat on his forehead and was in great torment.

The woman was no longer able to support herself and she collapsed to the ground, sobbing.

The old woman followed closely behind, tears rolling down her cheeks like pearls from a broken string. Her heart ached intensely as her grandson's vital signs gradually faded away.

At this desperate moment, the old woman's eyes fell on Xiao Zhixue not far away.

She seemed to have caught a glimmer of hope, and rushed towards Xiao Zhixue without hesitation, and knelt down at her feet with a plop: "Miss, please have mercy on me and save my grandson!"

This sudden action stunned Zhou Shuqiong and Xiao Wei for a moment.

Zhou Shuqiong hurried forward and tried to help the old woman up: "Auntie, please get up quickly. I can't bear your kneeling."

However, the old woman refused to get up. She had witnessed Xiao Zhixue using herbs to treat Xiao Tingrui's wounds. Although she thought Xiao Zhixue's behavior was clumsy at that time, at this moment, for the life and death of her grandson, she was willing to believe that this seemingly dull woman might have mastered some medical skills to save lives.

Her grandson was her lifeblood and her only solace on this journey of fleeing famine. She would never let him die.

Xiao Zhixue stared at the old woman in front of her. Her eyes were red and her face was full of sorrow. Her grief almost overwhelmed her frail body.

The old woman knelt stubbornly in front of her. Her resolute yet helpless look formed a sharp contrast with the villagers who were talking around her.

This scene made Xiao Zhixue feel sad. She sighed secretly. After all, she couldn't turn a blind eye to the helpless grandchildren, so she responded softly: "Get up, I will go to save your grandson."

The old woman felt as if she had been pardoned when she heard the words. A gleam of hope flashed in her eyes, and she stood up tremblingly.

Xiao Zhixue walked towards Chen Ge'er who was lying on the sickbed without any hesitation. Seeing this, the village chief had some doubts in his heart, but at this moment he had no choice but to hand the child to her.
