Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies Chapter 34

Chapter 34

They Are Good People
“In such a circumstance, who’d be so foolish to walk around with so much food.” It wasn’t that they had no pity, but at this time, being able to protect themselves was their greatest virtue.
“That, that seems to be the Zhang family’s convoy.” Zhang Cuiniang looked at the carriages.
“The Zhang family? Can you recognize it?”
Zhang Cuiniang nodded. “I used to have a good friend. She married into the Zhang family in Xialin County, part of the Yunshui City region. Her family might be escaping from the disaster. Yet their fortunes were robbed so soon.”
The prisoners and the refugees did not let a single carriage go. When they swarmed into the first carriage, they lifted the curtain and saw a woman with a frightened face. “No. Don’t come up. I beg you. We have nothing in the carriage…”
However, how could those people listen to her? They pulled her off the carriage and climbed in to search.
“Mother, I’m so scared…” The child thrown to the ground was so frightened that he cried out loud.
Those people were like locusts. They didn’t even let the horses go. The prisoners who wanted to escape cut off the reins, jumped on the horses and ran away with food.
Zhang Cuiniang couldn’t stand it and walked up to take a look. When she saw the young woman on the ground, she recognized her.
“Rou Niang, it’s really you.”
The young woman raised her head in a panic. For a moment, she didn’t recognize Zhang Cuiniang and thought that she was here to rob her. The woman hugged her young child tightly in fear and cried: “Please, please let me go. I really have nothing left.”
Seeing her friend in this state, Zhang Cuiniang felt terrible. She stepped forward and sobbed: “Rou Niang, don’t cry. I’m Cuiniang. Open your eyes and look. I’m Zhang Cuiniang. Do you still remember me?”
Rou Niang slowly opened her eyes. After seeing Zhang Cuiniang, she burst into tears.
“Cuiniang, Cuiniang, please save me. Please save us.”
Zhang Cuiniang relied on Su Ying for her and Ling Sheng’s survival and could not save her.
“I’m only alive now because of the help of a noble person. She is right there. Why don’t you go and beg her?” Zhang Cuiniang couldn’t bear to see her like this, so she pointed at Su Ying.
Li Rou looked in Su Ying’s direction and couldn’t care less. She picked up the child and ran to kneel before Su Ying.
“Madam, please save us. My husband is seriously ill, and we are in a hurry to go to Yunshui City for treatment. Please have mercy and help us.”
Su Ying’s face was expressionless as she coldly looked at the refugees surrounding the convoy. It was impossible to get back the food that had been taken, but it was not impossible for her to lend a hand.
“Where’s your husband?”
When Li Rou heard Su Ying’s words, she raised her reddened face and said: “Just now, just now, he was thrown out of the carriage by those people.”
“Leave the child here. I’ll go with you to take a look.”
“Many thanks, Madam. Many thanks, Madam.”
Li Rou handed the child to Zhang Cuiniang and brought Su Ying to the chaotic fleet of carts.
They saw two prisoners dragging a man on the ground as soon as they arrived.
“Husband!” Li Rou rushed forward and forcefully pushed the men.
However, how could she, a woman, be a match for two men?
“Stinky b*tch, you’re looking for death!” The man raised his hand and was about to hit Li Rou, but someone grabbed his fist.
“Ah! Ah!”
Su Ying put on a bit of force, and a cracking sound rang in her ears. The man’s palm was crushed into a dough.
The other man was so scared that he turned and ran away.
Su Ying released him and glared at him coldly. “Get lost!”
The man was so scared that he rolled away.
Su Ying looked at the man on the ground. His face was ashen. He didn’t have long to live.
Su Ying knelt and took his pulse. She frowned. “How long has your husband been sick?”
“It’s, it’s been almost a month. He’s been taking medicine, but the condition has been getting worse and worse.”
“The medicine is not right, so the condition is turning worse. I can see that the pulse of his liver is very weak. I also observe his complexion and the color of his nails. The possibility of him being poisoned is very high.”
Li Rou’s eyes widened in shock, “P-poisoned? How could he…”
“Let’s carry him over first.” Su Ying stood up and beckoned Jiang Yang over.
Ever since Su Ying saved him, he had been obedient to her.
Jiang Yang ran over and carried the man to the foot of the mountain with Li Rou.
Su Ying got into the carriage behind them when they turned around. She said that she was going to see if there was anything left behind, but she was taking the opportunity to enter the interspace to get an antidote.
The man was indeed poisoned, and the poison had already entered his lungs. If he did not detoxify in time, he would die without a doubt.
Su Ying quickly left the carriage, and the people behind her were still fighting for the remaining luggage.
Su Ying walked to Li Rou and passed her a packet of medicine. “Feed this to your husband. It’s an antidote.”
Li Rou received the medicine and thanked her profusely. “Thank you, Madam. Thank you, Madam.”
“Madam…” Zhang Cuiniang walked to Su Ying. Su Ying didn’t have to heed, but because she asked, Su Ying acted. She felt grateful and apologetic as she worried this would bring Su Ying unnecessary trouble.
“Madam, Rou Niang and her companions are good people. When her husband wakes up, I’ll ask them to leave.”
Since they were good people, they wouldn’t be on the same side as them. Su Ying asked: “They were unaware of the current situation and brought along so much food. Are they looking for death?”
“I asked just now. Rou Niang said that many places in the county had been flooded. Her husband was a concubine’s son. So the family took the convenience of the flood to push them out of the family. The food in the carriages was their share of the Zhang family. As her husband was seriously ill, Rou Niang wanted to take him to Yunshui City to see a doctor. Who would expect that something like this would happen on the way?”
Prominent families had many people, so there would always be unseen disputes. This was not uncommon.
Su Ying stood up and looked at the carriages. Those people ran away after snatching goods.
Some of the prisoners ran back, and many took the opportunity to escape. At first, the bailiffs tried to stop them but found they couldn’t. They could only sit on the ground and record names.
After counting the number of people, Li Da was so angry that he slapped his thigh. Those criminals without families had all run away!
“Ahem.”
After taking the antidote, Zhang Liang coughed and woke up.
“Hubby, hubby, you’re finally awake.”
Zhang Liang let out a breath of air and felt that his heavy body had become much lighter.
“Rou Niang, where are we?”
