Chapter 388: The County Is Gone

Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Before Doctor Li could finish his words of gratitude, he was interrupted by MO Ruyue.

“Doctor Li, you should hurry up and get in the carriage. Get well first and talk about the future later.”

She knew that there was a small town that had survived fifty miles away, and it had miraculously not encountered any danger. Whether it was meteorites or fire, they had all avoided it as if they had made an appointment.

Moreover, there were no refugees in the city. They were basically the people of the city. In order to prevent refugees from entering the city, the city gates had been tightly sealed.

Fortunately, there was no shortage of food in the city at that time, but there was a lack of medicine. Originally, they had to import medicine from the county’s medicine store. Now that the county was destroyed, their medicine import channels were all cut off.

MO Ruyue used a cart of medicinal herbs to exchange for an entry pass. It shouldn’t be too much of a problem to arrange for Doctor Li to enter the city alone.

As for other matters in the future, she couldn’t manage them and didn’t want to manage them.

After all, the two of them only had a casual relationship, and she had already done her best.

MO Ruyue watched the carriage leave and stood in place for a long time, unwilling to leave.

Speaking of which, this was the first time she had been separated from Gu Ying after reuniting with him.

A distance of fifty miles was not considered far. In order to return at the fastest speed, they had even switched to the big black horse. However, she still felt that when he left, he had already taken her heart away.

It wasn’t like they hadn’t split up when they were trying to save people, but she didn’t have such a strong sense of reluctance at that time. The shadow of the carriage was still clearly visible, but she had already begun to miss him.

“Forget it, I’ll use this time to go back to Qin Village to take a look.”

MO Ruyue didn’t intend to stand there and wait for Gu Ying to return. He knew very well where to find her next.

This time, after she got on the horse, she couldn’t run anymore. The entire official road was smashed into a mess, and she could only rely on her horse-riding skills to slowly move forward.

“If that’s the case, it won’t be easy for Gu Ying to drive the carriage back later.”

MO Ruyue had only walked about a hundred meters when she stopped her horse.

She had changed her mind. The carriage would definitely sink into the potholes again and again. She didn’t want to wait for Gu Ying to appear at the Qin Village.

She left a secret signal at the place where they were going to part and told Gu Ying to wait for her for a while. MO Ruyue then flashed into the space.

This time, she was going to see the babies. Ever since she left and started her rescue journey, she had almost not seen the babies.

Now that the Qin Village was in front of her, she decided to go see them and correct her mentality.

MO Ruyue had just entered the space when she heard San Bao shouting, “Mother is back! Everyone, come out! Don’t let Mother run away!

The other four babies appeared out of nowhere. The closest one was actually Tang Tang, who was less than twenty meters away from MO Ruyue.

The top of her head was stained with grass, and she had entered the herbal field at some point in time. She didn’t look like she was picking herbs, but more like she was lying in ambush.

As for who they were ambushing, it was obvious.

“Mother, don’t leave me behind!”

Tang Tang immediately ran over. She had grown a bit taller now. Although she still had short legs, she could still run very fast.

“Slow down, Mother won’t leave, be careful you don’t fall!”

MO Ruyue called out repeatedly, feeling both amused and distressed.

She didn’t know how long the babies had thought of this idea, how long they had been waiting for her, and what kind of feelings they had when they finally found her today. They tried their best to stop her from leaving.

Just as these thoughts flashed through her mind, Tang Tang had already plunged into her arms and hugged her thigh tightly.

The second person to rush over was San Bao. He was currently the one with the highest martial strength among the babies, and his running speed was like a little leopard with its four claws spread out.

MO Ruyue was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to stop in time and bump into Tang Tang, so she immediately picked her up with both hands and then used one hand to slow down San Bao’s speed.

Perhaps it was because they saw that MO Ruyue really had no intention of leaving, the three babies slowed down in the end, especially Tang Tang, who started walking directly.

“Mother, why haven’t you come to see us? Don’t you miss us?”

After Tang Tang was lifted up, she immediately hugged MO Ruyue’s neck tightly and said pitifully in MO Ruyue’s ear.

“Mother, we’ve been waiting for you for a long time. This time, you’ve left for a longer time than all the previous times combined. We all thought that you didn’t want us anymore.”

San Bao’s eyes were red as well, but he wiped his eyes hard and forced his tears back.

“Mother, you’ve returned.”

Er Bao walked over with Si Bao. He didn’t complain about anything. Instead, he greeted MO Ruyue with a normal expression, as if she had just come home from a consultation.

Da Bao was the only one who stood far away. He didn’t complain or talk to her. He just looked at her quietly from a distance.

That gaze made MO Ruyue’s hair stand on end. Even when facing the world’s most brutal and perverted assassin, she had never felt this way. Now, facing a twelve-year-old child, this kind of feeling inexplicably came.

“Mother has been busy saving people outside these days. Every time I come back, I take some food, herbs, and necessities, so I didn’t have the time to say hello to you.”

Even MO Ruyue herself felt that the reason she gave was very far-fetched, so after she finished speaking, she could only kiss Tang Tang’s little face to ease her embarrassment.

“What’s the situation outside now? We’ve been staying here all this time and don’t know anything. Mother, can’t you let us go out and help?”

Er Bao immediately seized the opportunity to ask the question that everyone had been thinking about during this period of time.

“Now, Mother has returned to the county.”

MO Ruyue hesitated for a moment but still decided to tell the truth.

“Really? How’s the situation there? Mother, have you returned to the Qin Village?

Er Bao’s eyes lit up. They were more concerned about the place where they grew up.

“I haven’t gone to Qin Village yet, but… The county is gone.”

At first, MO Ruyue was still hesitating whether to tell them such a cruel truth.

After all, the babies were still too young, and this truth was so cruel.

“No… It was… What do you mean by that?”

The babies were stunned and didn’t understand what MO Ruyue was saying.

“No more. I mean what I said, the county is gone.” MO Ruyue repeated. This time, she could clearly see the shock and realization in her babies’ eyes.

“Mother, it’s all… All gone? The Qin Village… No more?”

Er Bao’s lips trembled slightly as he spoke. Although he tried very hard to squeeze out a smile, he still failed in the end.

“I haven’t seen the Qin Village yet, but two of the mountains in that direction have been cut off. I don’t think the situation will be any better.” “As for the county, there’s nothing left except for the ruins.”

MO Ruyue told the truth without hiding anything.

“Then, shall we go… home?

Si Bao asked as well. His voice was trembling, and the tears in his eyes were rolling down. Even though he tried to wipe them away with his hands, they could not stop flowing.

“Yes, at least go back and take a look. After all, that is the place where you were born and grew up. You have to take a look. Perhaps there will be a chance to rebuild it in the future.”

It wasn’t that MO Ruyue didn’t have this thought. With her current connections and financial resources, even if she wanted to rebuild the county, it would be a piece of cake.

But she wasn’t sure if she should do that..
