Chapter 204: Death on the way
She deliberately got up early today and bought several large bags of multigrain steamed buns from the mall, and asked Gu Zhongquan to take them to the kitchen of the inn to steam.
Gu Zhong opened the book, took out two large packages of paper balls from it, opened it, and more than a dozen steamed buns the size of a man's fist were presented in front of everyone.
When the other people saw it, their eyes were a little straight, and Ning Ning and He Mo couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
No way, purely instinctive reaction.
After all, the steamed bun is really different from the brown cake in his hand.
But after just one glance, he forced himself to look away, and no one said that he wanted to eat, or that he wanted to eat.
Gu Zhong had been secretly observing them, and nodded slightly with a smile.
Two large paper-wrapped steamed buns, one for Bu Yao and Gao Boyi, and one for Gu Zhong and Gu Yi, ate them slowly and methodically.
The taste is certainly not comparable to when it was freshly steamed, but it is still delicious and very filling.
Bu Yao was eating steamed buns, and obviously felt the gaze cast by the surroundings.
It's good that they're in the spotlight again.
There should be jealousy and greed in these sights.
But so what?
With Gu Zhong and Gu Yi, she won't worry about others.
She decided in the morning, and in the next exile, she would take her people to eat, drink, and dress well.
Strive to suffer less and enjoy more.
As for those open guns and hidden arrows, let the soldiers block them, and the water will cover them.
From the very beginning, when she was preparing for the exile of Zhang Luo, she was for the sake of being comfortable along the way.
It didn't take long for the entire exile party to set off again.
As it turned out, the solvers were genuinely worried about not being able to reach the penal colony on time.
For the rest of the day, the whips in the hands of the messengers were not vacant, and they were busy whipping the prisoners to speed up their steps.
In this way, after several days of driving, I finally recovered my previous speed.
However, on the way, more than a dozen prisoners also died.
Mainly the elderly and frail women and children.
The messengers were accustomed to this, so they reported to the local government as quickly as possible, and after verifying the identity and situation of the prisoners, they ignored the cries and requests of the relatives of the deceased, and directly took the other exiles on their way.
For such a scene, Ning Ning watched it very worriedly, and grabbed Mrs. Ning's hand tightly.
He Mo was extremely happy, fortunately his wife came to the rescue at that time, otherwise his father would have been treated so casually by the missionaries.
The heart of the twelve-year-old boy was full of gratitude to Bu Yao.
Liu Yu frowned, and his eyes frequently looked in the direction of the Liu family.
Bu Yao and Gao Boyi behaved calmly throughout the whole process.
Not indifferent and calm, but too much.
Gao Boyi has been fighting on the battlefield all year round and has seen too many human tragedies at the border.
After all, Bu Yao is a person who has lived for ten lifetimes, and he has also seen a lot of joys and sorrows.
Both husband and wife have learned how to be calm for their own reasons.
Oh, by the way, there's a terminally ill one.
It was none other than the person who deliberately teased Bu Yao when he was dividing the water before.
As for the reason for the terminally ill, the doctor said that it was raining and contracting the cold.
Only Bu Yao knows, no.
No matter how many exiles died, or whether they were terminally ill or not, none of this could stop the entire team from moving forward.
And just like that, another month and a half went.
Whether it's a messenger or an exile, it's all in the dust.
Most of the exiles, in particular, are no longer visible.
One of the capes was smeared, dirty, and emitted a foul stench.
There are only a few who are still clean, and that is Bu Yao's small team, and the flower-like teenage trio.
This is the seventh update to make up for yesterday.
