Qiu Yongkang was glad that they had lost the knives. Otherwise, the officials would not have let them go so easily. They would have been captured and interrogated by the county government.

The group of refugees continued on their way. After what had just happened, the villagers still had lingering fears and wanted to leave Guo City as soon as possible.

After walking for about a mile, Ji Shui Sheng returned. After drinking his fill of water, he seemed to be in high spirits and his lips were no longer dry and bleeding.

He shouted at everyone, “I found a water source. There’s a stream in the mountain ahead. Let’s go and get some water.”

“Shui Sheng.”

Qiu Yongkang went up to him with a serious expression. Ji Shui Sheng could tell that something was wrong and asked in a low voice, “What happened?”

“Just now, a team of officers stopped us and searched through the place. They smashed a lot of things and seemed to be attempting to arrest someone. They only left after I told them about the bandits. ”

Qiu Yongkang recounted what had happened and Ji Shui Sheng’s expression changed drastically.

“Didn’t you find those knives?”

If they found those knives, they would not be able to defend themselves. At the very least, they would be charged with being bandits, and the officials would behead all the bandits they caught.

“I was just about to talk to you about this. Those knives were all lost, and not a single one was left. The soldiers only let us go because they didn’t find anything.”

“Lost?”

Ji Shui Sheng looked at Qiu Yongkang in disbelief. There were more than ten knives and there were so many of them on patrol. Who would be able to take the knives away without anyone noticing?

If they didn’t even know that he had taken the knife, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake to take their heads?

“I don’t know who did it, but I don’t think they have any bad intentions. This person saved the lives of our entire village.”

Qiu Yongkang shook his head, his voice was filled with fear.

Ji shuisheng subconsciously looked at Su Qing. Could she have hidden the knife?

Su Qing felt his gaze and looked at him indifferently. Then, she lowered her head and continued weaving the straw sandals.

That calm look was in stark contrast to the other women’s terrified and trembling faces.

Who was she?

Ji Shui Sheng became even more suspicious. When he first saw her, she was covered in wounds and unconscious. However, after getting along with her for a few days, he realized that she was almost omnipotent. She was calm and steady. She did not even blink when she killed someone. Who had injured such a strong woman?

Wasn’t it time to find out who Su Qing was? Where did those knives go?

However, those soldiers might come back, so they had to leave this place as soon as possible.

“Let’s go,” Ji Shui Sheng shouted at the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove.

Fortunately, the water source was in the mountains. After leaving this official road, the soldiers would not be able to see them. There were so many people fleeing, so the soldiers might not remember them.

Ji Shui Sheng led everyone to the mountain stream with a grave expression. Due to the drought, the water flow in the mountain stream was very thin. However, there was a deep pool under the mountain stream. The water in the pool was very deep and did not dry up, even after the drought.

Everyone was thirsty, so when they saw the water, they quickly leaned over the pool and drank big mouthfuls. They only filled their water bags and bamboo tubes after they were full.

No one complained that the water was dirty. When people were at their wits ‘end, all of their problems and mysophobia no longer existed.

Su Qing did not drink the water from the pool, as it was not flowing water. There were many footprints and feces of small animals on the shore of the pool, and they often came here to drink water, so it was easy to get infected.

Su Qing took out a water bag and a bamboo tube to fill it with water. After filling it, she threw it into the system and let little seven purify it. After it was purified, she took the bamboo tube and drank it.

She was also very thirsty. After drinking the entire bamboo tube, she felt like she had just watered a wet patch after a long drought. She took out another bamboo tube and drank it all before she recovered.

She slowly filled the two bamboo tubes with water and threw them into the system for little seven to purify. Seeing that Xiao Ying had already drunk the pond water, she gave Xiao Ying a pill.

“Eat it to prevent stomach problems.”

“Thank you, sister.”

Xiao Ying took the medicine and thanked Su Qing with a smile. She threw it into her mouth and swallowed it.

Su Qing glanced at her. Shouldn’t she be suspicious? If she were to give her poison, would she also eat it without hesitation?

Su Qing valued this unconditional trust.

She then distributed the medicine to the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove. Most of them ate the medicine without hesitation. Only a few people didn’t dare to eat it and put the medicine away.

Su Qing could not be bothered to care about these people. Perhaps their stomachs were strong and would not be infected by bacteria.

“I’ve eaten. ”

Su Qing walked in front of Ji Shui Sheng, passed him the pill, gave him a short order, and continued to walk forward.

Ji Shui Sheng looked at her slender back with doubt in his eyes. He had seen her make medicine before, but he had never seen her make so many.

She seemed to be able to take out the medicine at any time…

Ji Shui Sheng put the pill into his mouth.

When Qiu Yue saw it, she hurriedly walked over and said anxiously, “Brother shuisheng, you can’t just take medicine!”

Ji Shui Sheng looked at her indifferently, “I believe in her medical skills.”

Su Qing heard their conversation and turned to look at Ji Shui Sheng. She was surprised by his trust. Su Qing’s cold gaze landed on Qiu Yue, who was suspicious of her, making Qiu Yue feel awkward.

Su Qing walked over with a dark expression and extended her hand to Qiu Yue. She said coldly, “Give me back my medicine.”

Qiu Yue was very angry at Su Qing for asking for the pill so ruthlessly in front of brother Shui Sheng.

Her face darkened as she handed the pill back to Su Qing, “Here you go,”

Su Qing took the pill and threw it into the pool. After throwing the pill, she dusted her hands in disgust. Qiu Yue’s face turned pale with anger. This woman didn’t give anyone any face. Wasn’t this the same as slapping her in the face?

However, she couldn’t say it. Who asked her to doubt the medicine first? Qiu Yue felt wronged and complained to Ji shuisheng, “Brother Shui Sheng, I really don’t have any other intentions. Why is sister angry?”

Ji Shui Sheng glanced at her indifferently and said coldly, “You questioned her medical skills. What’s wrong with her taking the medicine back?”

Qiu Yue was speechless. She wanted brother Shui Sheng to comfort her, but why was he criticizing her instead?

Qiu Yue was most afraid of ruining her image in Ji Shui Sheng’s heart. She endured the grievances in her heart and said, “I might have really hurt my sister. I’ll go and apologize to her.”

Ji shuisheng didn’t have the time to care about these things as he had something important hidden in his heart. Seeing that the villagers had had enough to drink and all the containers were filled with water, he continued on his journey.

“Check if everyone is here, then leave!” Ji Shui Sheng shouted at Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi, then went over to check on the horses. The shore of the pond was full of tender grass and the horses were full. Their eyes were bright and they kept sniffling.

When Qiu Yue saw that Ji Shui Sheng was ignoring her, she ran to look for Ji Xiao Ying.

Before she could speak, Ji Xiao Ying retorted, “Sister Qiu Yue, sister Su Qing gave you the medicine out of kindness. Even if you don’t want it, don’t say those words. It’s hurtful.”

Qiu Yue swallowed the words of grievance that were about to come out of her mouth and decided to retreat to Su Qing.
