Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing Bai Wutong’s words, Youjia villagers reacted quickly. Both the men and women started to kick the gra.s.s b.a.l.l.s away.
Seeing that someone was on fire, they used a blanket to help put out the fire quickly.
Even the children were sensible enough not to cry and obediently listened to their parents’ arrangements.
Youjia villagers were experienced in fleeing and had a tacit sense of unity. They surrounded to form a metal bucket that could not be invaded.
The rest of the team also hurriedly learned how to protect themselves.
However, they were far inferior to the calm villagers of Youjia Village. Once they were on fire, they would shout for help and even pounce on other people’s carnages m a panic.
Little Cat’s eyes darkened as he mercilessly kicked the people away.
If the carriage caught fire, he and Tao Yinzhen could still escape. In the chaos, the paralyzed Ren Shuixing could only be burned.
The man who was kicked to the ground by Little Cat shouted crazily. Little Cat quickly took out a blanket and jumped off the carriage, quickly extinguishing the fire on his body.
He had just extinguished the fire on a man when another man pounced on the carnage.
Little Cat quickly went to stop him. After putting out the fire on his body again, he looked at Youjia Villagers, which was united, with heartfelt envy.
If only he was a villager from Youjia Village.
Little Cat was just a child after all. There were more and more tumbleweeds, and he could not react in time.
Seeing that the carriage wheels were already on fire and Little Cat was unable to do anything, Tao Yinzhen took a glance coldly and did not help. She only kicked away a tumbleweed.
If the heavens had eyes, they should have burned Ren Shuixing completely and freed her.
Bai Wutong glanced at the chaotic team and then at the hills where tumbleweeds kept falling. Dodging like this was not a long-term solution at all.
They still had to solve the problem at its root.
She and Chu Tianbao looked at each other and sensed the same meaning in each other’s eyes.
Chu Tianbao said, ‘Wait for me here!’
Not wanting him to be distracted, Bai Wutong nodded. “Okay.”
Chu Tianbao led the elite soldiers of the dark guard team and rushed towards the rebel army behind the hill.
Bai Wutong was not idle either. She helped You Huaijie command the remaining soldiers to calm down and quickly helped the commoners avoid the damage of the tumbleweeds.
The fire on Little Cat’s carriage was getting bigger and bigger. If Ren Shuixing continued to stay in the carriage, he would choke to death even if he was not burned to death.
Lin Hu wanted to help him carry Ren Shuixing, but he could not take care of himself either. He kept dodging the rolling gra.s.s and had to protect his wife and children from being injured.
Little Cat struggled to carry Ren Shuixing off the carriage, when a large tumbleweed suddenly appeared on his back.
Tao Yinzhen was right in front. She watched helplessly as the tumbleweed headed towards Ren Shuixing’s back, but she raised her leg and kicked it into the yellow sand.
Little Cat turned around and saw the tumbleweeds coming at them. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
At the critical moment, Lin Yue descended from the sky and kicked the tumbleweed away.
Little Cat broke out in cold sweat and looked up at Tao Yinzhen.
If Lin Yue did not come in time and the fire burned his body and could not be extinguished...
Tao Yinzhen met his straight black eyes and bit her lip. She looked down guiltily and secretly hated Ren Shuixing for being such a despicable man. Why did Little Cat keep protecting him?
After Lin Yue protected Little Cat and blocked a wave of ball, the b.a.l.l.s suddenly disappeared.
At this moment, the commoners were like birds startled by the tw.a.n.g of a bow. They did not dare to lower their feet.
It was not until Chu Tianbao appeared on the hill with the dark guards that everyone cheered.
At this moment, Chu Tianbao’s image was engraved in everyone’s minds like a glorious savior.
Tao Yinzhen looked at the man who was like a heavenly G.o.d in a daze. From the corner of her eye, she saw Ren Shuixing, who was still a cripple. Her suppressed desires broke out of the ground again.
Chu Tianbao quickly locked onto Bai Wutong and jumped lightly to her side.
Bai Wutong had kicked a lot of tumbleweed just now. Her hair bun was messed up, and a strand of black hair was stuck to her dry lips.
Chu Tianbao reached out to move away the hair for her and handed her the water bag.
Bai Wutong took a few sips of water. “What’s going on up there? Are they rebels?’
Chu Tianbao said casually, “Yes, I have killed them all.”
Bai Wutong wiped the dirt stains from his face. “I’m glad you’re okay.”
Just now, Chu Tianbao had brought people to kill the rebel army. Although Bai Wutong looked calm on the surface, she was actually a little fl.u.s.tered.
Chu Tianbao killed all the rebels so quickly because he wanted to rush back to Bai Wutong’s side as soon as possible.
Chu Tianbao suddenly hugged her tightly and whispered like a child, “Thank goodness you’re fine too.”
The danger was over, and the two of them were suddenly being melachony here. Bai Wutong smiled. “Alright, let’s go and see how the team is doing.” Chu Tianbao hugged her for a while more before letting go.
With the solid protection of the villagers, only a small portion of their belongings were damaged and some people were injured.
As for the people behind Youjia Village, they were in a miserable state. They had burns everywhere, and their losses were even more severe.
The medical resources were so limited that even the doctor could not spare any time.
He could only treat the most seriously injured people first.
The food damages were relatively small. A few water carts had collapsed while the commoners panicked. They had to quickly form a team and reach the next stronghold to replenish the water source.
Otherwise, if such a large group of people had no water on the road, it would cause even more panic.
In order to protect Meng Weiwei, Meng Ge’s upper body was seriously injured, and Shen Yueqin’s face was also injured.
The burning pain was unbearable.
However, there were more people who were more seriously injured than him.
They could not make it in line for the doctor, and there was no medicine. Meng Ge lay on the ground and rolled around, groaning in pain. Shen Yueqin touched the side of her blistered face and burst into tears.
It was useless for Meng Weiwei to cry. She could only search for Wu Hao in the crowd.
Sheng Huaixuan had a personal doctor. As long as Wu Hao begged, he would definitely be able to get Sheng Huaixuan’s doctor to treat her parents first.
Until now, Meng Weiwei still thought that she could always control Wu Hao.
After discovering Wu Hao in the crowd, she quickly ran over and grabbed his arm. She begged pitifully, “Brother Hao, my father is so uncomfortable that he’s about to die. Please help me save him!”
Wu Hao’s arm was injured just now, and Meng Weiwei had grabbed his wound.
Wu Hao gasped in pain. Wu Mengyao grabbed Meng Weiwei’s hand and said,
“My brother is injured. Don’t touch him.”
Meng Weiwei shouted at her, “What does it have to do with you? I’m talking to your brother. Don’t you know how to respect your elders?!” It was as if she was Wu Mengyao’s sister-in-law.
Wu Mengyao glanced at Wu Hao. He had a pained expression on his face, but he still couldn’t bear to get angry at Meng Weiwei. It made him angry at himself.
Wu Mengyao was too lazy to care anymore and went to check on Wu Ji’s mJunes.
Wu Mengyao left resolutely. Meng Weiwei was still pleading sweetly beside Wu Hao’s ear, “Brother Hao, you don’t want to see anything happen to my father, right?”
He was also injured, but Meng Weiwei did not care at all.
Initially, Wu Hao still had some hope for her. He thought that after suffering so much, she would restrain herself. However, he was still overthinking.
The admiration in Wu Hao’s eyes completely turned into the wind in the desert and disappeared.
He walked away coldly and said to the stunned Meng Weiwei, “Don’t look for me anymore..”
