Three days is also Gu Jinli's limit, she will only wait for three days at most, after all, her life is her own, and there is no reason to put herself in order to wait for others.

Gu Dafu didn't want to leave, he looked at the grave next to him and said, "There are still surviving villagers in the village, they will definitely come back, let's wait." ”

"Wait a fart!" Chen was furious, pointed to the distance and shouted, "Uncle, look up yourself, how many people are left at the foot of this mountain?" The living victims are almost gone, so what are you waiting for? You're going to have to wait for yourself, but we're not waiting anyway. ”

After speaking, he said to the third grandfather: "Yes, third uncle." ”

The Chen family is a smart one, and he directly pulled the third grandfather up, obviously wanting to isolate Gu Dafu alone.

Gu Dagui also did not agree with Gu Dafu continuing to die, and persuaded: "Big brother, let's go, if the villagers came back, they would have come back a long time ago, and if they didn't come back for three days, they must have left." ”

How terrible was the events that night, how many of the villagers who were still alive dared to come back?

Gu Dafu didn't speak, he felt that it was the village chief Gu who killed the villagers, and as the successor of the village chief, it was necessary for him to stay and wait for the villagers.

Seeing that Gu Dafu didn't speak, Chen was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, pulled Gu Dexing and Gu Yumei, and said to Gu Dafu: "Uncle, you always have to think about Brother Xing and Sister Mei, do you want them to accompany you to starve to death and die of thirst here?" If they die, are you worthy of your sister-in-law? ”

Gu Dafu's daughter-in-law was also killed that night.

Gu Dexing and Gu Yumei broke free from Chen's pull and stepped aside, not wanting to or daring to force Gu Dafu to make a decision.

Chen glared at them angrily: "You two have no conscience, but I am good for you, do you really want to stay here with your father and be the companion of the dead?" ”

When Gu Dexing and Gu Yumei heard the word dead, they glanced at the grave in Gujia Village, and their bodies trembled.

Seeing this, Chen snorted coldly, knowing that he was afraid, he would force Gu Dafu with her.

The third grandfather glanced at Gu Dafu and persuaded: "Dafu, don't wait, let's go, we still have more than 30 lives here, and we can't all lose them here." ”

"Third Uncle ......" Gu Dafu finally raised his head and looked at the third grandfather with tears in his eyes.

The third grandfather said: "Let's go, enough people in the village have died, and we can't die anymore in our group." ”

When Gu Dafu heard this, he looked at the several families in the resting ground, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and agreed: "Let's go!" ”

When several families heard Gu Dafu's words, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen began to pack her things with a smile on her face, she wanted to get food, but was stopped by the third grandmother: "Chen, you just take care of your two children, these things are held by our three families." ”

Food, water, and the things of the three of them, and the salt is Xiaoyu's alone, and it is already benevolent and righteous to be able to take out these things for everyone to eat, and the Chen family still wants to pull these things to their own home, which is a dream.

Gu Jinli watched Chen's every move in his eyes and didn't make a sound.

As early as three days ago, she quietly prepared a small bag of food for each person in the family and tied it to her body.

The coarse salt in that cloth bag has always been carried by her, and she only takes a little bit every day to the third grandmother, and asks the third grandmother to take it and distribute it to everyone to replenish the salt.

It was not easy to escape the famine, so she could only try to keep her family.

She told the Luo family and the third grandfather's family about this, and asked each of them to tie a small bag of food to their bodies in case of emergency.

When Chen heard the words of the third grandmother, there was no embarrassment on his face, and he circled around the third grandmother, thinking about how to find an opportunity to steal the grain.

After deciding to leave, Gu Dafu took out the household registration paper, land deed, and silver money found from the corpses of the villagers, and said worriedly: "Third uncle, what should I do with these things?" These are all the things we need to settle down, and if we take these things away, what if some villagers come back to look for them? ”

Chen is a greedy person, and he has long been fighting the idea of those land deeds and silver coins, and he is busy saying: "Naturally, I bring it with me." Uncle, you are a man, not fine enough, let me look at these things. ”

As he spoke, he was about to rush over and snatch the land deed silver in Gu Dafu's hand, but Gu Dagui grabbed him.

Gu Dagui couldn't wait to slap her: "You mother-in-law want money and want to go crazy?" That's the money of the dead, and if you take it, you won't be afraid that the dead villagers will come to you at night? ”

Chen was afraid of ghosts, and when he heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he didn't dare to fight those ideas of land deed silver coins again.

The third grandfather thought for a while and said, "Let's bury them one by one in front of the grave." ”

Since ancient times, there has been a custom of living people burying some items in front of the graves of their ancestors, and the people in the village know that as long as they see a small dirt bag in front of the grave, they will know that there are things inside, and they will dig them out to see.

After hearing this, Gu Dafu responded, and together with Father Luo, Gu Dashan, Uncle Tian, Gu Damu and Gu Dalin, they took the household registration papers, land deeds, and silver wallets of each family, and then dug a row of small pits in front of the grave, buried things in the pits, and piled them into small soil bags.

According to the ranking of each household in the village, he found the same number of small stones as the row and surrounded the small earthen bag, as a distinction, so that the villagers who came back would not take the wrong things from other people's houses.

The third grandfather summoned the big guys over, and finally kowtowed to the grave where the villagers were buried, and after getting up, he said to everyone, "Let's go." ”

When everyone heard these two words, their hearts were very heavy, and they were very panicked, and they had a long way to go, and they didn't know what else they would encounter.

Gu Jinli tied the cloth bag, took the dagger and wooden stick, grabbed Gu Jinxiu and Cui's hands, and walked behind Gu Dashan, who was holding Cheng Ge'er, led by the Luo family's father and son and Qin Lao, and walked in the direction of Yongtai Mansion.

Qin Lao said: "When we arrive at Yongtai Mansion, we can go south along the gallop road." ”

There are four big gallop roads in the Great Chu Dynasty, crisscrossing the east, west, north and south, and the intersection of the four big gallop roads is in Yongtai Mansion, and you can turn south when you arrive at Yongtai Mansion.

In ancient times, the transportation was inconvenient, and among their group, Qin Lao and Luo's father had gone far away, and compared to Luo's father, Qin Lao was more familiar with these routes, so they could only believe what Qin Lao said.

"There's Brother Lao." The third grandfather said gratefully.

Qin Lao smiled: "What's the matter, let's support each other." ”

On the way, they met a lot of small groups of victims, many of whom were familiar faces, presumably the victims who survived that night.

But after the events of that night, the victims were like frightened birds, and even if they met familiar faces, they would not take the initiative to greet them, and only hurried with those close to them.

The third grandfather was also afraid that these victims would do something drastic, and when they met acquaintances, they nodded at most, and did not go up to say hello, everyone went their own way, and they were all on guard.

The group walked in the direction of Yongtai Mansion for four days, relying on digging grass roots, picking leaves, picking bark, looking for mountain mice, catching snakes to satisfy hunger, and luckily found a semi-dry mountain spring, but finally did not die of hunger and thirst.

When they were about to enter the area of Yongtai Mansion, they suddenly saw a large group of victims running back in a panic, some of them still with blood stains on their bodies.

Gu Jinli was stunned, knowing that the big thing was not good, and immediately said to everyone: "Let's find a place to hide, don't enter Yongtai Mansion first!" ”

Qin Lao's face sank, and he hurriedly said: "Something must have happened in Yongtai Mansion, everyone quickly hide." ”

He said to Qin Sanlang again: "San Lang, go and catch a disaster victim and ask, what happened to them?" ”
