Traveling through ancient times to survive

Zhao Lan shook her head frantically. She was not crazy. Her sister was the only relative in the Hu family. Everyone else was a stranger. If she lived with strangers, she would be very uncomfortable. Besides, the Hu family would definitely not be happy about it.

"No, I'm fine living at my second uncle's house."

"Okay, if you don't want to, forget it. I have nothing to worry about you living at Second Uncle's house. But after all, it's someone else's house, so you have to be more sensible, be more active, help Second Aunt with things, and be more obedient, and coax Second Aunt well. If you feel really wronged living there, I will come to pick you up."

Zhao Hong carefully reminded her sister that she might be more comfortable living with her second uncle, and she couldn't force her sister to leave.

Zhao Lan boasted proudly: "Sister, don't worry, I understand. I made Second Aunt very happy this morning."

Zhao Hong felt bitter when she saw her sister's deliberately mischievous expression. God was so cruel to her sister. She had to meet such a heartless and ungrateful pair of parents. She had a home but couldn't return to it and could only live under someone else's roof.

No matter how good her second uncle is, she can't act unruly. At such a young age, she has to live by others' wishes and try to please them.

Zhao Hong went forward and hugged Zhao Lan, her eyes slightly red: "You must be fine, and you must tell your sister if you have any difficulties."

Zhao Lan's whole body trembled and her muscles tensed. It took her a while to relax and hug Zhao Hong back.

Zhao Hong took Hu Erge away, leaving behind only a bag of 50 kilograms of grain. Under such difficult conditions, the Hu family was able to spare a bag of grain. Zhao Hong must have put in a lot of effort. Zhao Lan looked at the grain and was deeply moved. Although her parents didn't call her parents, her sister really loved her.

Zhao Lan successfully stayed at Zhao Qing's home. Several more patients with symptoms appeared in the camp, and more people moved into the isolation area.

Of course, there was also good news. The wife and children of Liu Laoshi, the family of three who went in first, also recovered. Only Liu Laoshi was the only one who had not yet recovered. He became very anxious and directly threw the medicine bowl, with an expression on his face that changed from gloomy to happy.

"The old village chief must be targeting me on purpose. He didn't give me the right medicine. How come everyone else is getting better, but I'm the only one lying here!"

Thinking of his wife and children, Liu Laoshi struggled in his heart, his eyes flickering. The pain in his body gradually overcame his conscience. Why should others be fine, but I am the only one suffering? Since I am not having a good life, then no one should have a good life!

The scales of victory were sliding towards the abyss. Liu Laoshi's eyes were fierce, and he finally extinguished the last bit of his conscience.

"Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!"

In the afternoon, Liu Laoshi's wife brought him food. He had a full meal. When the woman was about to go back, Liu Laoshi's calm voice came from behind him.

"Cook for yourself when you go out, don't take advantage of the village chief."

The woman shuddered, feeling that her husband's words were like ice chips, chilling her to the bone.

There was something really wrong with her husband. The woman felt uneasy and hesitant after returning home. But when she saw her son's happy smiling face, she calmed herself down and made up her mind.

The woman did not know that this action saved the lives of both mother and son. She did not know on the first day she came back that there were people guarding the camp at night. Even if she did not report it, her husband's plan would have failed.

At night, when everything was quiet, Liu Laoshi sneaked out and came to the gate of the quarantine area. The two guards were dozing off little by little.

He secretly walked around to a distance and stood still, nodding with satisfaction. If he climbed over the wall from here, as long as he was careful, the noise he made would definitely not alarm the guards.

He used the moonlight, endured the pain, moved gently, and prepared to climb over the fence. The fence was really high, and Liu Laoshi tried several times, sweating on his forehead, but he finally succeeded in climbing over it.

The two guards who had received the news and were pretending to be asleep were worried about him and wanted to take his place. When they saw that he finally succeeded in climbing over the wall, they breathed a sigh of relief.

After climbing over the wall, Liu Laoshi rested for a long time, touched the bamboo tube in his arms, and then set off.

Under the moonlight, he walked to the foot of the mountain with difficulty, step by step. The pain in his body made him unable to pay attention to his surroundings, so Liu Laoshi did not notice the clumsy tracking behind him.

When they got there, they saw many dark shadows floating on the water under the moonlight. Liu Laoshi's scalp was throbbing and he dared not look any more. He retracted his gaze, squatted down, and carefully scooped up a bamboo tube of dirty water.

Liu Laoshi breathed a sigh of relief, and without daring to stop, he walked towards the camp on the mountain with all his strength.

When they were almost at the camp, Liu Laoshi stopped. He still felt unsafe and spat into the bamboo tube several times. The people following him felt sick when they saw this.

Liu Laoshi squinted his eyes and carefully identified the shed of the village chief, then moved towards the village chief's house. The door of the shed was designed to guard against gentlemen but not villains, so Liu Laoshi pried the door open easily.

Just as he was about to push the door open, he felt a pain in his neck and quickly fell down, unconscious. Zhao Qing came out from the darkness, and the attack was caused by the mud ball Zhao Qing had thrown from a long distance.

After Zhao Qing got the news from the village chief, she didn't sleep at all and stayed at the entrance of the camp. When Liu Laoshi appeared, Zhao Qing followed him silently until Liu Laoshi selected the target, and then she took action.

The village chief's family was all awake and in mixed emotions. The village chief believed that he had done his best for Liu Laoshi. The three of them were all isolated, and they cooked and sent meals to him every day. They never expected that the first person he wanted to retaliate against would be his own family.

The village head's wife sneered and said, "Old man, are you clear-headed now? Will you still be so open-hearted in the future?"

The village chief suffered a severe blow, his energy and spirit were greatly reduced, his eyes were tired, and his body was shaky.

Zhao Desong's heart tightened, thinking that his father had really suffered a great blow this time, and he hurried forward to support the village chief.

"Mom, Dad is sadder than anyone else, please stop making sarcastic remarks."

The village head's wife snorted coldly and shut up.

The village chief paused for a long time, then pushed his son's hand away and walked slowly out the door step by step.

There were six people standing in front of the door. In addition to Zhao Qing, there were the four people who followed Liu Laoshi to the foot of the mountain, and Liu Laoshi's wife, who was so nervous that she didn't sleep at all and came out as soon as she heard the noise.

The six people stood there in silence. Liu Laoshi's act of repaying kindness with enmity was such a heavy blow to the village chief. No one could understand how the village chief felt at that moment.

The woman, Liu Laoshi's wife, burst into tears and dared not utter a sound. She was ashamed and afraid, and had no face to beg for mercy, so she just knelt down.

The village chief had no mood to get angry at all. He just ordered people to tie up Liu Laoshi and take him to the isolation area. Looking at the kneeling woman, the village chief sighed heavily.

"Get up. I will never let him go. Considering your meritorious service in reporting the crime, you can continue to live in the camp with your son. If you don't want to, you can go out together. You can all go back and rest."

The village chief's straight back collapsed for a moment, and he dismissed the six people without any emotion and turned back to the house.
