Chapter 317
Zhou Shuwan staggered and fell to the ground under the attack of two people.
This is the first time she has encountered an enemy of equal strength since her rebirth.
But when she knelt down, Mu Mu, who had been afraid of hurting her by mistake, quickly seized the opportunity and shot an arrow into the arm of the man standing in front of Zhou Shuwan.
The person behind her immediately half-crouched down alertly, grabbing Zhou Shuwan's shoulders and neck with one hand and holding her neck with the other, trying to control her.
But he suddenly screamed, trembling all over and lowering his head. It turned out that the other party had taken out a long knife in his hand at some point, and the sharp blade pierced straight into his chest when he approached the other party.
She, when did she take the knife?
How come he didn’t see such a long knife just now!
However, he no longer had an answer, and he fell to the ground unwillingly and closed his eyes.
After taking care of one, the injured other one was no match for him.
When the opponent saw that the situation was not good and wanted to escape, Zhong Tiyun shot an arrow to the ground and he could not move anymore.
"Late night!"
Qi Mingyu had already dealt with the people in front and quickly rushed over.
"It's nothing. Just a little scrape on my face."
Of the entire family, Zhou Shuwan was the only one who was gloriously wounded. Under the concerned gazes of her family, she hurriedly smiled and said, "I'll be fine after applying some medicine."
Her left cheek had just been hit by a palm and was now completely bruised and swollen. There was even some blood in her left eye socket, which showed how strong the opponent was.
"Bah, this group of people must have a complicated background. Two of them are dealing with Wanwan alone. How despicable!" Zhou Jianghai punched the wall angrily.
"I didn't expect that the other side actually had someone with such good skills, otherwise Brother Xiaoyu and I would have switched."
Zhou Shuwan smiled bitterly.
Qi Mingyu looked at her wound, his face full of self-blame.
Because of the fight just now, everyone around was scared away.
At this moment, the alley was very quiet and there was no one else.
"Let's go and take a look at the building in front. We'll rest there at night." Zhou Shuwan said.
"Okay! You have to apply ice to your wound immediately, otherwise it will be more swollen tomorrow." Qi Mingyu pulled Zhou Shuwan's hand and let her walk in front.
I deliberately gave her space so that she could quietly take out ice from the space and apply it first.
Although Zhou Shuwan didn't care much about it, his cheeks were burning with pain. Applying ice didn't make it so painful.
She quietly took out a small ice pack, covered it with her sleeve, and put it on her cheek.
When we arrived at the building, we found that refugees had already moved in.
This is a commercial building with large flats. People who escaped from the fire sat together in groups of three or four, looking exhausted and dusty, with bags rescued from the fire piled around them.
When they saw Zhou Shuwan and his family coming in, they all looked at them warily.
Zhong Tiyun said carefully: "Should we change places? There are too many people here, it's not safe."
Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu exchanged a glance, with the latter shaking his head. "It's already dark, it's not suitable to continue traveling. Besides, this commercial building is the only habitable building in this area, and the alley we were in is even less safe."
Zhou Shuwan also nodded: "I think so too. We are all very tired. Let's just rest for a night."
"Okay then." Zhong Tiyun helped Zhou Jianghai out of the tricycle: "Xiaoyu, Wanwan, help carry your dad out. He's been sitting here all afternoon, he must be feeling terrible."
But Zhou Jianghai remained silent, fearing that he would cause trouble.
Zhou Shuwan looked at his father's honest smile and made up his mind.
They took a tent from the car, set it up, and tied the tricycle body and the tent together.
Then the whole family went into the tent. Zhou Shuwan had already taken out a basin and filled it with water from a thermos. The family members took turns washing their hands and faces, and only then did they feel as if they were alive again.
Zhou Shuwan gave everyone a bowl of beef noodles.
Qi Mingyu brought the bowl to Grandma Pang.
Grandma Pang was a little surprised and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Yu, where did this come from?"
There's no way it's freshly made.
Qi Mingyu lowered his voice and said, "Grandma, I'll explain it to you later. Don't let others hear it."
Grandma Pang nodded quickly: "Okay, Grandma won't say anything."
She ate the bowl of beef noodles very carefully.
Mu Mu had been warned by her sister and brother-in-law, so she finished her bowl of noodles quietly.
Eating beef can quickly replenish physical strength. Zhou Shuwan even took out a plate of beef slices and gave some to everyone.
Each person received a box of hot milk.
After eating and drinking, everyone talked about their next plans.
"Wanwan and I will find a car tomorrow and drive to the new base." Qi Mingyu said.
"My mom and I will go. Brother Xiaoyu, you stay here and watch over everyone. We have a tricycle full of supplies. If someone gets greedy for the money, the rest of us will be in danger."
"Okay, then we'll use the distress signal stick as a communication method. If there's an emergency, we'll fire it."
"Row!"
"Once we find a car, we'll go straight to the new base. The fire in the old city is still spreading, and we don't know when it will stop. We shouldn't look back."
As Zhou Shuwan spoke, he glanced at Zhong Tiyun.
Today, the fire is still burning, spreading from one community to another, spreading from the center of the old city to the surrounding areas. They have walked for most of the day, but they can still smell the smell of burning in the air.
Therefore, they absolutely cannot go back and can only go to the new district or suburbs.
Zhong Tiyun understood what Zhou Shuwan meant and smiled bitterly, "Wanwan, don't worry, Mom knows the seriousness of the matter. Although I am also worried about your second uncle and third aunt, I am very satisfied that we have been together for a few years after the end of the world. Each family has their own big family to take care of, and no one can take care of others! We won't look back. Even if you want to go back to take a look, Mom won't agree."
Grandma Pang knew she was upset, so she patted her hand gently and said, "Tiyun, everyone has their own destiny and fate. You can't force it. Just go with the flow."
Zhong Tiyun nodded heavily.
Zhou Jianghai also said, "Zhipeng and the others have grown up and experienced a lot in the past few years. They must have escaped with their families long ago, but they must have brought less supplies and suffered some hardships. But in the end times, who can avoid suffering?"
Compared with others, the suffering I endured was not that severe.
Zhou Shuwan also said: "I have a certain amount of supplies from both families. When we meet again in the future, there will be a chance for them to make a comeback."
"That's right." Zhou Jianghai nodded.
The whole family was comforting her, and Zhong Tiyun felt much better.
At night, they still have shifts.
Considering the dangers of traveling during the day, Zhou Shuwan, Qi Mingyu and Zhong Tiyun did not work the night shift, and only Zhou Jianghai, Grandma Pang and Mu Mu were on duty.
Shifts change every three hours.
