The two figures snuggled up in front of the bonfire fell into the eyes of the survivors not far away, and finally confirmed their initial guess.

“As expected, I thought they were a couple, and it’s true.”

“Aiya, Lady Qin is so young and beautiful, and she has medical skills. It’s normal for young men to follow her.”

“That’s right. She has been a widow for many years, and has taken good care of her five babies who have no blood relationship with me. She has already done her best. Do you want her to be a widow for the rest of her life?”

“Yes, yes, let’s just be happy to see it happen.”

They discussed in low voices, afraid that their words would be heard by MO Ruyue and Gu Ying.

Little did they know that the five senses of the two people were extremely sensitive. Even if they were speaking softly from a distance of tens of meters, they could still hear it clearly.

“If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m their lifesaver, would they still be so happy to see our plan come to fruition?

Although MO Ruyue believed that when they first met, these people’s wish for her to be safe was sincere, it was not so easy to accept the fact that a widow had to remarry.

After all, this was a feudal society with conservative ideas. In the eyes of many people, women should be chaste after marriage.

It wasn’t impossible to remarry, but people would still gossip behind her back and poke at her back.

“Why are you thinking about this? At least they’re giving you their blessings now. That’s enough.

Gu Ying reached out and stroked MO Ruyue’s hair. He didn’t want to think about those meaningless things. He only wanted to give MO Ruyue a grand wedding after everything settled down.

He had already loved her for two lifetimes, and he wanted to continue loving her for all of them.

“You’re right, it’s pointless to think about these things. Even if everyone doesn’t wish us well, do you think we’ll be separated because of this? That’s impossible!”

MO Ruyue also felt that what she had just said was ridiculous. When did she become so sentimental? It was always easy for her to be disturbed by unnecessary thoughts.

“Bing ‘Er, I feel that you’re more alive now.”

Gu Ying looked at MO Ruyue’s eyes and suddenly blurted out. He felt that something was wrong and quickly explained, “I’m not saying that you weren’t alive before, I just…”

His desperate attempt to explain made MO Ruyue laugh. She raised her hand and pinched his cheek.

“I also feel that I’m more like a human now, a real human.”

Before noon the next day, the group finally arrived at the small town.

However, the team stopped at a distance and did not enter the city directly.

“Bing ‘Er, do you want me to go and check the situation?” Gu Ying walked over and said to MO Ruyue.

The gate of the small city in the distance was tightly shut. Many people were gathered outside the city. Judging from their ragged clothes, they should have fled here from other places.

However, for some unknown reason, they had been rejected.

“The small city must be overwhelmed. It was not large in the first place. Now that so many disaster escapees have been accommodated, food is definitely not enough.”

When MO Ruyue saw this scene, she immediately guessed the most likely reason.

If those people were rejected at the door, then the people she brought would have the same result.

“Let’s retreat further away and not call those people over.”

Mo Ruyue waved her hand, and the survivors slowly retreated, trying not to make too much noise.

The group of people gathered at the city gate were dressed in ragged clothes, their faces yellow and thin. One look and it was clear that they had been hungry for a long time and had been tortured. If they discovered that there were people with good complexions here, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not have evil thoughts.

MO Ruyue naturally wasn’t afraid of those disaster victims. She just didn’t want to cause trouble.

The marching line was very long. When the people at the back saw the people in front turn and retreat, they were not in a hurry to ask. Instead, they chose to follow them and retreat first, then ask what had happened.

They retreated all the way to a small hill at the back, where they could avoid the wind and block their vision. Only then did they stop to rest.

“What’s wrong? We’re almost there. Why did you stop?”

“Yeah, what happened?”

“I don’t know. I just saw the one in front turn around, so I turned around.”

Everyone was whispering to each other. Except for the survivors in front who saw the situation outside the city gate, the others were confused.

“Everyone, be quiet. We just saw that the small city has already closed its gates and shut many of the victims outside.”

The uncle who was in the best physical condition among the survivors was called Deng Feng. He had been the backbone of the survivor team for the past few days and had been involved in all matters.

Just now, he had been following behind MO Ruyue, so he had clearly seen the situation outside the town.

“What? We’re not allowed to enter the city? Then what should we do? We don’t have any more food, we can’t just eat dirt!”

A middle-aged woman in her forties shouted in a hurry. Her voice was a little too loud, and her mouth was immediately covered by the people next to her.

“Don’t scream, be careful not to attract the disaster victims. You don’t know, they must have been starving for a long time, who knows what will happen.”

They had also suffered before and knew that people were irrational when they were crazy from hunger, so they quickly and clearly understood MO Ruyue’s intention for them to retreat and hide in the mountain.

“But we’ve already finished the last bit of food at noon. Are we going to eat dirt next?”

Although the middle-aged woman had lowered her voice, it still carried a heavy sobbing tone.

She was really scared of hunger.

It was not easy for her to live a few days of peace, and she thought that she would be able to settle down in the future. Who knew that there would be waves again?

The others also had the same idea, but they didn’t say it out loud. After using the middle-aged woman’s mouth to express their true intentions, they couldn’t help but look at MO Ruyue with anticipation.

“It’s impossible for Lady Qin to accompany us for a lifetime, so why do we always count on her?”

Deng Feng could not stand it anymore.

During this period of time, the food they ate and the herbs they used were all provided by MO Ruyue for free. He didn’t have any intention of making them work like cows and horses in return.

However, it had only been a few days, and they had become dependent on Lady Qin for everything. Did she owe them?

The survivors blushed at Deng Feng’s words and lowered their heads, too embarrassed to look at MO Ruyue.

“How about this? Let’s split into several groups and go in different directions to see if we can get some wild vegetables or the like.”

A white-haired old man took the initiative to step forward and made a suggestion.

“You’ve seen it for yourself along the way. There’s almost no grass growing here, so where are we going to find wild vegetables?”

It was still the same middle-aged woman who had been complaining non-stop. Even though people offered her steps one after another, she seemed to not understand at all and continued to complain.

MO Ruyue had been watching coldly from the side. When she heard this, her eyes became a little cold.

The scope of this natural disaster was too wide. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, their lives would be very difficult in the future. She thought that these survivors should have been aware of this.

She didn’t expect that she had overestimated some people. It had only been a few days and she had already exposed her true nature..
