Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter

Chapter 724: Chapter 722: Rescuing people, there are enemy soldiers_1

“It will be dangerous once we descend the mountain.”

Shitou overheard the conversation between the two brothers, passed Mo Canglan and Lin Yixuan, and added to their dialogue loudly.

“What’s there to fear? Coming across the Qiyan soldiers, kill one if there’s one, exterminate a pair if there’re two. Fengqi’s territory doesn’t tolerate their arrogance.”

Among the seven brothers in the Lin Clan, Lin Jinpeng is the youngest and most impulsive, much like an inexperienced calf not fearing a tiger.

“You’re impressive! I admire you.”

Feng Yi, amused, grinned in laughter.

“There’s a group of refugees halfway down the mountain. Walk a few hundred meters down, and we should meet them. Our sister should be there.”

After a stick of incense’s worth of time passed, Lin Jinlong found a vantage point and overlooked the side of the mountain, accurately spotting the refugees.

“They are climbing the mountain, in the opposite direction from us.”

Shitou was behind him, stepping onto a jutting boulder and craning his neck to peer down.

“Ah-woo”

Upon seeing them stop, Baoya let out a few tender calls.

“Baoya says Master is just ahead and tells us to move faster; we should not delay.”

Mo Canglan, leading his horse past Lin Jinlong and Shitou, moved to the front.

“Let’s go. Stop wasting time staring at refugees, finding Master should be our priority.”

Having encountered many refugees already, Feng Yi had grown numb.

“Let’s go.”

Hearing that Master was just ahead, Wang Meng’s spirits lifted and he rallied the others to continue their journey.

“Move.”

Lin Jinlong and Shitou, lagging at the back, jumped down from the protruding boulder, led their horses and caught up with the others.

By the time the young men reached halfway down the mountain, Lin Qingluo had already bandaged an injured woman, needled her using the Golden Needle technique to force her to awaken.

The woman, extremely fatigued and hungry, held her young child upon waking. She didn’t even have the strength to cry.

Lin Qingluo took out some unleavened bread and spring water that she was carrying and gave them to the woman and her daughter.

Overflowing with gratitude yet reluctant to eat the bread, the woman tore off a small piece, put it in her mouth and slowly chewed it together with the spring water.

As she chewed, her eyes swelled with tears, and she began to cry uncontrollably.

“Mother, I’m not hungry. You can give the bread to my little brother.”

The girl, seeing her mother cry, wisely gave up her half-eaten bread and offered it to her younger brother.

“Little Sister, you can eat. I still have more bread.”

Feeling distressed, Lin Qingluo took out a few more pieces of bread, wrapped them in oil paper, and stuffed them into the woman’s hand.

“They have food!”

“We want to eat too.”

“Please, could you spare us some food?”

The refugees who had not walked far smelled the aroma of bread, and their mood immediately escalated. No less than ten of them turned back and gathered around Lin Qingluo.

“I have food to give you.”

Lin Qingluo, calm and composed, her aura compelling anyone not to underestimate her.

“You must also keep your word. After eating this bread, you must not abandon this mother and daughter again. You should take them with you when you leave.”

“Alright, alright, we understand.”

The gathered refugees, their eyes gleaming, promised in unison.

“There is one piece of bread per person. No snatching.”

Lin Qingluo, her eyes deeply focused, handed out one piece of bread per person.

The refugees gratefully took the bread, devouring it ravenously.

Someone swallowed their piece in a few bites, as if afraid that it might be stolen.

Lin Qingluo, feeling a bitter pang of sorrow, turned her face to gaze at the distant mountain forest. @@novelbin@@

“Coo, coo, coo.”

A huge eagle circled above the mountains, spotting the figures of Qiyan Light Cavalry and its urgent cries tightened everyone’s hearts.
