The mountain road is tortuous and complicated, but fortunately, Xu Chen has been familiar with it a few times.

Because women are all from farmers, they still have some physical strength. Although everyone's mental outlook is not very good, they are all working hard to persevere.

However, many of them are traveling far away for the first time, so they are always a little scared.

The work of comforting them fell on the maid's shoulders. She kept wandering in the team and told everyone about the good things about Fengqi Town, hoping that they could feel at ease.

Xu Chen led the horse in front and led the way without saying a word.

As it was getting late, Xu Chen knew that everyone had to rush to the nearest official road before dark, otherwise the mountain road at night could not rest at will.

Xu Chen didn't dare to stay near Huangjia Village for one more day. Although the bandits attacking Huangjia Village killed him one by one, he was also worried that other Huangke thieves would come. If he found that the three leaders of Huangke thieves and their group were destroyed in Huangjia Village, he was afraid that they would have to look for them everywhere.

It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, you must arrive at the official road before nightfall!

Xu Chen gritted his teeth, stopped and turned to face everyone.

"Everyone, listen to me." Xu Chen saw the confusion in the child's eyes and the sadness of the woman's face. He was deeply moved by his heart. His family was destroyed and his back was gone. What a painful blow to ordinary families!

Taking a deep breath, Xu Chen said slowly: "It's getting late, and we can't stop on the mountain road for too long. I'm worried that other yellow pit thieves will come. Before nightfall, we must rush to the near official road to rest! Children can get on my horse, but as for others, we can only be more fortunate."

"How can I let my children ride Mr. Xu's horse!" the women shouted.

Xu Chen waved his hand and said, "It's nothing."

Before the women could react, Xu Chen had already carried the nearest child on the horse. In fact, there were only three children who survived. This was better protected by their parents, otherwise they would not have survived.

In fact, Xu Chen felt a little conflicted, because on the one hand he regretted that he had taken people away from Huangjia Village, and on the other hand, he was glad that Fengqi Town still had surviving thirteen children from Huangjia Village, especially the last child survived by Huang Youwei's family.

The three children were carried on the horse and looked a little excited. This was their first time riding a horse.

Xu Chen told them to sit down and not move around.

Then the entire team began to accelerate because they were not playing, but running for their lives...

Not long after the night, Xu Chen and others finally arrived at the official road. The women were all fine. Although they were tired, they could still accept it. However, the maid could not hold on anymore and needed Huang Cui's support to get to wherever they are now.

With the help of the moonlight, Xu Chen could see clearly. He asked everyone to hold hands and not fall behind, and he found an open space before stopping.

Then Xu Chen asked everyone to rest and wait, and he walked into the forest.

The women were a little panicked when they saw Xu Chen leaving, but they were still able to bear it.

Not long after, Xu Chen returned to the open space with some wood, took out a fire fold and lit the dry leaves, and then burned the wood and piled it together.

Seeing the fire, everyone sat down around the wooden bonfire.

The mountain road was still a bit difficult for them, with haggard faces and a little lost eyes, and everyone sat around without saying a word.

Suddenly Huang Cui sobbed in a low voice. Xu Chen didn't blame her when he heard it. The others seemed to be infected by the crying, and they all lowered their heads and cried silently.

At this time, the maid walked to Xu Chen and said kindly: "Young Master, I've prepared a blanket for you."

When Xu Chen saw that the maid was carrying a few blankets on the grass with him, and also wrapped a few pieces of clothing together to make pillows for him.

"No need, I'll watch the night later." Xu Chen smiled gently, and he touched the maid's head: "You go and rest, you're tired on the way."

"How can this work..."

"obedient."

Under Xu Chen's forced, the maid had to lie on the blanket...

Before going to bed, the maid felt that the young master was such a good person and felt more distressed by the young master. How much he loved the young lady...

Not long after, the maid fell asleep. Seeing this, the women quickly spread the clothes they carried with them on the ground and fell asleep one by one.

When Xu Chen saw that everyone was asleep, he got up and took out the deworming powder from the package, sprinkled around everyone, and then meditated and rested.

No words all night.

In the Xiao family in Fengqi Town, Xiao Lian was lying on the bed holding the Xiu pillow, as if he was thinking about something.

I haven't seen each other for a day, why do I miss that big bad guy again?

Xiao Lian felt that the Xiu pillow in her arms was Xu Chen, so she snorted and slapped the Xiu pillow hard.

Thinking of the bad things Xu Chen did to him when he met the day before yesterday, especially when his warm hands were fumbled in his clothes, he didn't resist!

The more I thought about it, the more embarrassed Xiao Lian became, and her whole face turned red. She said that her head was stuffed into the Xiu pillow.

No, I want to write to him!

Xiao Lian, who could not contain his longing, quickly stood up, put on his robe and walked to the four treasures of the study. Just as he was about to grind ink, Xiaoqing suddenly knocked on the door.

"Miss!"

Seeing this, Xiao Lian had to put down what he had and walked to open the door.

"What's wrong, I'm screaming."

Because of Xu Chen, Xiao Lian became more and more doting towards Xiaoqing, so sometimes she didn't care about her rude behavior.

Xiaoqing looked surprised: "Miss, Young Master Xu just returned home!"

When Xiao Lian heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and asked quickly: "Really?"

"Really, although I didn't see the front, the back was definitely Mr. Xu's right!"

"Where is he now?"

"Young Master Xu seems to be going to the study to find the master."

After saying that, Xiao Lian happily put her robe on her body and went to the study room when she left the yard. After all, the study room was in the backyard, and there were no outsiders in the backyard, so she didn't care about her clothes.

Xiao Lian was having a happy fantasy while walking. Is Xu Chen missing each other like her, so he returned home?

As soon as she approached the study, Xiao Lian waved her hand to interrupt the butler's salute and signaled that he didn't need to report. She happily came to the door and suddenly heard the conversation coming from the study.

"Child, you look like this...but what happened on the way?"

“Something happened.”

When Xiao Lian heard Xu Chen's hoarse voice and contacted the conversation again, she couldn't help but frown and felt a little worried.

"Hey, child, why have you kneeled down!"

"Father, I have a heartless request, I hope I can agree to me!"

"If you have something to say, really, get up quickly."

Xiao Lian heard a sound in the room, and it seemed that Xiao Weifeng forced Xu Chen to pull him up and pressed him on the chair.

"You told your adoptive father, what happened."

"Father... When I returned to Huangjia Village yesterday, Huangjia Village was attacked by Huangkeng thieves. There were more than 20 families in Huangjia Village, with a population of 97, and now there are only eighteen living..."

"How could it be..."

"And Huang Ying'er, Huang Ying'er...is dead too! I buried her with my own hands."

Xiao Lian was stunned. When she heard Xu Chen's uncomfortable voice, she knew how uncomfortable and painful Xu Chen was when she said these words. She wanted to rush in and comfort Xu Chen in her arms, but she didn't dare to move now.

"How many Huangkeng thieves attacked Huangjia Village?"

"Nearly forty, and the third leader of the Huangkeng thief!"

"What?"

"Nothing is wrong, they have all brought to the child to sacrifice to heaven!"
