Infinite Doomsday: I rely on space to stock up and bully the scum

The next second, Jiang Jiang felt that he seemed to be a little too sensitive.

The dozens of Zhou family servants holding big swords are not vegetarians. They can fight anyone except the government soldiers, not to mention the unarmed refugees.

Take Daxi Village for example. There are only about a hundred young and middle-aged men in the entire village, but their weapons are mostly sticks, hoes, and some have homemade spears. If a melee breaks out between the two sides, most of the people in Daxi Village will be killed or injured in less than one round.

In ancient times, iron tools, except for farm tools and kitchen utensils, were strictly controlled. An ordinary family would have two kitchen knives at home at most, let alone a broadsword.

The Zhou family was able to get dozens of big swords, which shows that they are quite capable.

This is a good thing. The stronger the Zhou family is, the safer they will be.

Seeing more and more children rushing towards the Zhou family, Li Shuming came out in time to stop them.

"Go, go, go back. Who doesn't feed you? I'll go find your parents!" Li Shuming's face was stern and his serious expression scared them away.

People from each household had no choice but to take their children back home. Some children did not want to eat the wild vegetable porridge at home and made a fuss and demanded to eat meat. Their impatient parents slapped them in the face and told them to eat it or not. If they didn't, they would starve.

Uncle Fu also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that all the children would rush over, and it would be difficult to give it, and difficult not to give it.

"Miss, don't do this next time." Uncle Fu taught her earnestly.

Miss Zhou Er was a little unhappy about what she heard, but she also knew what was important. If she disturbed her parents, she would be deprived of the time to get out of the carriage and get some fresh air, so she had to pout and say she knew it.

Everyone took a good rest at noon, and the convoy started to set off only after the sun was not so hot.

It was only the first day, but Jiang Jiang already felt a little unbearable. She felt like she was in an airtight steamer, too hot to breathe.

She estimated that the temperature would be at least 37 or 38 degrees Celsius, and at noon, it would probably be around 40 degrees Celsius.

Young and middle-aged people can bear it, but the elderly and children are not in such good health.

In the team from Daxi Village, several people suffered from heatstroke and had to lie in the shade for a long time before they recovered.

The same was true in the Zhou family's team. Although there was a carriage, most of the servants did not have this treatment and could only walk behind the carriage. In the hot temperature, it was normal for them to suffer from heatstroke.

The Zhou family decided that this was not an option, so they set the travel time to early morning and late evening, and found a place to rest during the hottest noon and afternoon.

After walking for about five or six days, they unexpectedly encountered no danger along the way. Even though there were refugees with pale faces and green eyes on the road, they did not dare to step forward when they saw the Zhou family, who were guarded by dozens of servants, and the people from Daxi Village, who were numerous and powerful.

Li Shuming followed the Zhou family's example and formed a patrol team. Almost all the young and middle-aged men in the village participated, with eight people in a group taking turns patrolling.

Li Xu and Li Sheng also joined the patrol team, but they were not in the same team. They agreed that at least one person would stay behind to look after the house.

Jiang Jiang took out a knife from his luggage and handed it to Li Xu.

"This is the knife that mother brought back from the county town. It was given to him by your uncle. He travels a lot and has dozens of men under him. I never thought that one day it would be useful. Whoever of you goes on patrol should bring the knife with you."

Li Xu and Li Sheng came up and touched the big knife. The cold white light of the knife reflected their excited expressions.

A knife is not cheap. Jiang Jiang bought ten knives in the county town at that time. Each knife cost five taels of silver, which is almost the price of a cow.

Therefore, the shopkeeper who sells knives is only willing to sell ten knives and no more.

It was too daunting for Jiang Jiang to take out two knives at once. For safety reasons, she had to take out one and let the two brothers take turns using it.

With the knife in hand, not only Jiang Jiang felt more at ease, but Huang Ying and Sun Qiaoqiao also breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected of a mother, you are really capable.

"Grandma! Grandma! Come and see! Our hen has laid eggs!"

Li Laibao kept staring at the two hens in his house. When he saw them clucking twice and then huddled in the corner without moving, he knew that something good was going to happen.

He was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He quickly crawled to the two hens and reached under their stomachs. Hey, two eggs.

Li Laibao handed two eggs to Jiang Jiang as if showing off his treasures.

Jiang Jiang took the egg and placed it in the rice bucket beside him to prevent it from being broken by bumping into things.

"Laibao is awesome, we're having eggs tonight."

Li Laibao, who was praised, smiled with his eyes curved and tried hard to straighten his small body.

Sun Qiaoqiao, who was standing by, was very pleased to see Laibao jumping around.

Along the way, what she was most worried about was Li Laibao's health. Compared with other children, Li Laibao was born weak and sickly. She was really afraid that something might happen to him on the road. Sun Qiaoqiao couldn't imagine how devastated she would be.

Fortunately everything went smoothly.

Jiang Jiang used oil paper to build a roof on the ox cart to block the sun and wind. In addition to Li Laibao, several children in the family could also take turns to have a good rest on the ox cart.

Sometimes when the children in the family were tired of walking, Li Sheng would hold Li Laibao in his arms so that the other children could get in the car and rest.

Not all families have such good conditions as the Jiang Jiang family, especially those with a large population and many children.

Doctor Qin sighed silently. This was the seventh child who suffered from heatstroke.

He took out a small portion of the few remaining herbs and handed it to the child's parents.

"Boil three bowls of water into one bowl of water, twice a day, and then see how things go."

The people who received the medicine left with many thanks. Doctor Qin looked at the dwindling medicinal materials and prayed silently that no one would get sick again.

At noon, everyone found a place to rest as usual. Fortunately, there was a stream not far from the resting place.

The stream is not big, just above a person's ankles, and the pebbles on the bottom of the water are clearly visible.

But everyone was still very happy because they could replenish their water.

It was hot, so some people just scooped up the stream water to drink, and some children excitedly rushed into the stream and started a water fight.

"Stop it! Your clothes are wet! Come back quickly!" Li Chunhua called her youngest grandson. This naughty boy had run to the stream at some point and got his clothes wet.

Jiang Jiang took Li Cuicui and the others and picked up the empty water bags and filled them with water upstream of the stream.

"No one in the family is allowed to drink raw water directly. It has to be boiled before drinking." No one knew the reason, but since it was the mother who said so, they just did as she said.

Although the stream is flowing water and its water quality is much better than that of the pond, there is no guarantee that there will not be some problems. It is safest to drink it after boiling.

Not only that, Jiang Jiang also reminded Li Shuming about drinking water, and asked everyone to boil the water before drinking.

If someone finds collecting firewood troublesome and would rather drink the water directly because the weather is hot, Jiang Jiang can't do anything about it, but maybe that person is fine.

Just like when she went to eat hotpot with her friends before, all her friends were fine, but she was the only one who had diarrhea. People's physical conditions cannot be generalized.

After replenishing their water, everyone's pace became lighter, and by the time they rested at night, they were less than fifty miles away from the next county, Qingyuan County.

Li Sheng followed the team on patrol tonight. He carried a broadsword on his waist, looking like a brave general.

The bonfire was burning fiercely, making crackling sounds from time to time.

Late at night, a sudden panic woke up many people.

"Wangzi! Wangzi! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
