Thinking about this main meaning, they all felt that they didn't suffer a loss, and they immediately hit it off.

When they stopped to rest at noon, Ergou and the others looked at each other and stepped forward and said:

"Captain, we now know that the mountains are really a bit dangerous, and we don't dare to go up to find water."

Ji Liangqing saw that they suddenly came over to admit their mistakes, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourds of these people, so he just nodded and didn't say anything.

Suddenly I came forward to say this, and I didn't know what was going on.

But Ji Liangqing always felt that they didn't just admit their mistakes.

Sure enough, his instincts weren't wrong.

After the group said this, they rubbed their hands together, and their faces seemed to be a little embarrassed:

"Captain, that's it...... We don't dare to rush up the mountain now, so we want to ask if you can lend us some water......"

In the end, they all looked at Ji Liangqing closely and paid close attention to Ji Liangqing's expression.

It seemed that they were worried that Ji Liangqing would reject them, and after they finished speaking, they hurriedly added:

"We borrowed a little and gave the child two sips to drink, seeing that the child was about to die of thirst."

After speaking, he looked at Ji Liangqing eagerly, waiting for Ji Liangqing's reply.

Ji Liangqing looked at the place where they were resting, and several children were indeed in very poor spirits, as if they were thirsty.

He hesitated a little and looked in the direction of Mrs. Ji, but found that Mrs. Ji had already brought a kettle of water over and handed it to the group:

"We don't have much water in our house, we saved this bit of water, you guys take this water, don't come to us next time, we don't have water."

That kettle was quite small, and it was the smallest kettle in the Ji family.

But looking at this kettle, the two dogs all had smiles on their faces, and they thanked them a thousand times:

"Thank you, captain, thank you Aunt Ji, we all remember your kindness, and we will definitely repay you well in the future."

Hearing this, Mrs. Ji pulled a touch of ridicule at the corner of her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Seeing that they happily took the kettle to divide it, Mrs. Ji turned around and said to Ji Liangqing:

"It's not okay for this kind of person not to give some water, but he only gives this little water, and there is nothing else."

Ji Liangqing just nodded and didn't say anything, his mother naturally had a reason for doing this.

Even if they had enough water to drink, they would not be able to help others every day.

But giving a little is even to stabilize this wave of people for the time being.

And Mrs. Ji's expression was a little solemn, looking at the crowd around her thoughtfully, her heart sank slightly.

It's still a little too eye-catching......

This group of people are now looking at the Ji family's side, the lack of water is not like a lack of food, and if there is a lack of food, you can also pick up the bark of trees to find other fruits to eat, but the lack of water is fatal.

There is no shortage of water in their house, if they stay here with this group of people who are short of water......

Mrs. Ji didn't dare to think about it.

Her expression was heavy, and her head was racing to think about what to do.

In the middle of the night, seeing that everyone was busy, she called her son and daughter-in-law aside alone, and said with a calm face:

"Looking at the current situation, if we can't find water, we won't dare to go along."

What should I do if I am rushed up to grab water?

People are unpredictable, and they can do anything in order to survive.

Mrs. Ji didn't want to gamble on people's hearts, because this was a gamble that must be lost.

"Mother, what should we do then?" Wang Xueyan's expression was solemn, and her voice was as low as possible.

After fleeing, she is also much more stable, at least she won't shout anymore, and she knows that her voice is smaller at this time.

"We should see when we go alone." Mrs. Ji looked around, made sure that no one was looking at her side, and whispered.

Go Alone!

As soon as these three words came out, everyone's breathing became heavier.

How beautiful it sounds, and how sudden!

The last time they fled the famine, they left alone.

If it weren't for the fact that the village chief begged them to take the people of Niutou Village with them this time, they probably wouldn't have easily formed an alliance with this group of people, so they walked for so long.

And at that time, the village chief also said that if the people in the village did anything to be sorry for the Ji family in the future, they would not complain if they left alone.

Judging from the current trend, Mrs. Ji feels that they are very likely to do something.

Others are holding their breath.

If they don't follow the team, their family will go alone, and they won't have to hide what to eat and drink.

Thinking about the previous days, everyone's hearts were filled with inexplicable excitement.

"Liang Qing, you go and call Li Jiang over." Mrs. Ji thought about it and said to Ji Liang.

Ji Liangqing responded, and went over to call Li Jiang, who was sleeping on the other side.

Li Jiang was invited into the team by Ji Liangqing, and he is very capable, and he has always been tied to the Ji family.

If they left Niutou Village and Li Jiang stayed here alone, this mess would also make it difficult for Li Jiang to deal with.

After Li Jiang came over, Mrs. Ji didn't hide it, and told Li Jiang all the countermeasures just discussed.

Unexpectedly, Li Jiang's answer was that Li Jiang did not plan to go with the Ji family.

In other words, he just followed the Ji family for a while, and when he waited for a place, he would have to separate from them.

Moreover, he also brought another important news:

"I've known this road before, and if I follow it, it won't be long before I reach a fork in the road. The road over there leads to Gangnam. ”

Jiangnan, the land of fish and rice, is also the most developed place for business here.

When the Ji family was selling wine in Niutou Village before, they heard the shopkeeper Ye say more than once that the owner wanted to send their wine to the south of the Yangtze River.

Moreover, Ji Liangqing had talked to Shopkeeper Ye before, and knew that commerce in Jiangnan was very developed.

No matter what you go to Jiangnan, as long as there is a market, you can start a business.

Mrs. Ji has been keeping the wine recipe well, and the Ji family has the idea to settle down and continue to make wine and do business.

In this way, then they must go to Jiangnan!

After making up her mind, Mrs. Ji asked Li Jiang:

"How long does that road take to Gangnam?"

This is a crucial question.

Everyone watched Li Jiang closely.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be half a month younger." Li Jiang also knew everything, and after thinking about it carefully, he replied:

"Half a month at most."

He didn't plan to go to Jiangnan, and he said to the Ji family that he was going to Jiang'an, which was on the other road.

According to him, his hometown is in Jiang'an, and he also fled the famine to Lin'an County before, and now since there is a problem here, he has to return to his hometown.

"Half a month is fine." The Ji family breathed a sigh of relief.

Their family is not short of supplies, but they are afraid that they will walk for too long: "Are there bandits on the side of the road?" ”

It's not good if you run into robbers.

"Nope." Li Jiang shook his head: "The bandits are the previous batch, we met." ”

Generally, the bandits manage a lot of territory, and that road is also under the jurisdiction of this group of robbers, and they can plunder wherever they want to go when they are in a good mood.
