Chapter 4 Rescue of the Fifth Brother

This time he turned his head, but he met Lu Tao's sparkling eyes, "Dad, I'll talk about it later." ”

Lu Wen also knew that now was not the time to talk about this, so he nodded, turned his gaze back and continued to walk forward.

After eating two ice cubes, the heat in my body dissipated a lot, and I walked much better.

Seeing that he didn't ask, Lu Tao also breathed a sigh of relief, the excuse is that there is feudal superstition is the best shield, but now that he says it, there is no guarantee that the people around him will not hear it.

If it spreads, it will inevitably lead to death, and until you are sure that you have the ability to protect yourself, everything is still cautious.

"Ergou, Ergou, what's wrong with you? What happened to you? Yes! ”

"Little Liu, Little Liu, wake up!"

Suddenly, a commotion came from the front, and anxious shouts continued to sound.

Lu Tao looked up, and saw a crowd of people surging in front of him, several people gathered in a heap, the woman's cry and the man's shout were mixed together, with panic and fear, infecting the surrounding crowd like a virus.

"What's going on up front?" Someone next to me asked.

Someone in front of him turned his head and said, "Lu Dalin's grandson in Lujia Village is no longer good." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent, and they all lowered their heads, stopped talking, and staggered forward, and a lifeless atmosphere enveloped everything.

The officers and soldiers looked at them coldly, without any movement, and even when the woman rushed to them for help, they kicked her away, then threw a whip, and shouted angrily: "Be honest with Lao Tzu, don't fucking run to find trouble." Phew, bad! ”

Next to him, the slightly older official shook his head and whispered to the woman: "Go back, it's useless for you to beg us, we are not doctors, we don't have medicine, go back and give him more water, and then ...... Leave it to your fate, eh......"

When the woman heard this, she wept even harder, and they had no water. But he was afraid of the obscenity of the officials, so he didn't dare to drag it here, so he hurriedly went back to ask the clansmen for water.

It's just that no one has much water, and there is a big drought in the sky, and I don't know how long it will take to reach the post station. So no one gave the water to the lady, even though she was crying and splashing.

The child died on the way, and the woman buried him by the side of the road.

Everyone looked at all this blankly, as if it was insignificant, and as if they had seen too much and felt numb.

Along the way, people fell one after another, some old people, some children, some women, they fell and did not get up again. Under the whip of the official, the shrinking team still marched slowly and methodically.

Lu Tao looked at it coldly, he had seen a lot in the last days, so there was no fluctuation in his heart. But the predecessor's care and affection for her family still exists, and it can even be said that it still affects her, but she is not repulsive.

So when her eyes touched the swaddling clothes in Liu's arms, she couldn't help but tug in her heart.

If the predecessor remembers correctly, the fifth brother, who is only six months old, has not eaten for three days, and is supported by drinking water, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that he will follow in the footsteps of the second dog.

She glanced anxiously at the pocket watch in her sleeve, it was half past six in the afternoon, and the sun had not yet set. In order to get to the post station before dark, the official will definitely not let them rest.

But if the fifth brother drags it out any longer......

My heart tightened, and I didn't dare to think about that result. Lu Tao hurriedly reached out and patted Lu Wenyi's shoulder, and whispered: "Dad, you let me go down, bring the fifth brother over, and I'll feed him something." ”

Lu Wenyi paused, turned his head to look at her, and asked, "Can you go?" ”

Lu Tao nodded: "Yes." ”

opened his mouth, as if he wanted to stop her, but his eyes fell on the swaddling clothes in Liu's arms, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden: "Okay, Dad let you down, if you can't go, just call Daddy, Daddy will carry you." ”

"Okay." Lu Tao nodded, but after landing on the ground, his face changed.

The hot stinging pain on the soles of her feet instantly reached her brain, and the pain made her scalp rise all over.

There are injuries on her body, she can bear it, after all, in the last days, she has not suffered near-death injuries, but the soles of her feet are ......

Forget it, she endures!

"Dani, give me the fifth child, you can rest for a while."

Lu Wenyi also stretched out his hand to ask the Liu family for the child, but the Liu family frowned and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing when you put your pocket down?" The soles of her feet are worn out, and it hurts to walk! ”

Under Lu Tao's surprised gaze, the scolded Lu Wen also shrank his neck, but still stretched out his hand, and his tone was vaguely flattering: "Give me the child, I'll feed him some water." ”

At the mention of Lu Qi, Liu's eyes also turned red, tears began to roll in her eyes, she sniffed, and her voice choked: "His father, the cub is afraid ......"

"No, it won't!" Lu Wen also took a deep breath and suppressed his tears, he is the pillar of the third room, he is the support, he can't cry, he can't be weak!

Liu nodded, handed the child to him, and then turned his back to wipe his tears, and walked forward step by step, wiping as he went, and his shoulders began to stir.

Looking at that back, Lu Tao felt very uncomfortable. Lu Ziqi (third room and second son) and Lu Xun (third room and third son) in the back glanced at each other, and hurriedly caught up with Liu's footsteps to comfort her.

"Doudou, you see ......" Lu Wen also glanced at his daughter-in-law's back guiltily, and then handed Lu Qi to Lu Tao's eyes.

Lu Tao stretched out his hand to take it and said in a low voice: "Dad, don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

After that, regardless of Lu Wenyi's anxious look, he opened the swaddling clothes and took a look.

At this sight, she gasped, and her whole heart tugged.

The child was so thin that he was only skinny, and his skeleton and cheekbones were all protruding, and the whole person looked like a skeleton. To say that he is human is more like a dead corpse!

If it weren't for his heaving chest, Lu Tao would have thought he was dead.

"Daddy, cover me a little." Saying this, a shadow was cast over the former convenience.

Lu Tao's consciousness moved, and a wisp of spring water in the space was pumped out and mixed into the milk bottle. A test tube stirred it evenly, and then pulled out a tube, covered it with a sleeve, and squeezed it into Xiao Lu Qi's mouth little by little.

Xiao Luqi has been hungry for too long and has no strength to suck the pacifier, so he can only use a test tube. Hungry like this, if he can still swallow then there is still salvation, if not......

Boom~

Xiao Lu Qi's throat moved, and Lu Xian's heart was happy, saved!

So, slowly continue to milk.

Lu Wen didn't know what she was feeding, but she gently covered Lu Qi's mouth with her sleeve, and then Lu Qi's throat slowly squirmed.

Seeing this, he reached out and grabbed her shoulders to prevent her from falling, and also to provide better cover.

I don't know if it's because of the spring water, Lu Qi gradually began to move his mouth to suck the milk in the test tube, but it was not so powerful.

Seeing this, the tears in Lu Wenyi's eyes finally rolled down, he turned his head sideways, raised his shoulders to wipe them off, sniffed and whispered: "Doudou, cub, when he is full, he will give your mother a hug, and your father will carry you." ”

Lu Qi finished drinking the milk, smacked his mouth and fell asleep. Lu Tao was also relieved when she saw this, and when she heard her father say this, she nodded: "Well, dad, you hug it." ”
