Chapter 403: Casting Pearls Before Swine

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Lady Qin, this life-saving grace, we can’t repay it even if we work like cows and horses!”

“That’s right, God left us a life and was ready to take it back at any time. I didn’t expect Lady Qin to be a life-saving Bodhisattva, leaving us with this

Everyone was moved to tears by MO Ruyues gratitude and repeatedly thanked her.

“Come, Xiao Bao, quickly kneel down and kowtow to Lady Qin, thank her for saving your life!”

There were also women with children who directly pulled their children to kneel in front of MO Ruyue, wanting to kowtow and thank her for her kindness.

Everyone in the county knew that Lady Qin had excellent medical skills, but she was most afraid of trouble. She almost would not take the initiative to meddle in other people’s affairs.

But now, she was carrying all of them on her shoulders and was prepared to give them more hope.

“Don’t, don’t thank me like this. I can’t afford it.”

MO Ruyue immediately stopped the woman and child. This was not her intention to help them.

Some people also noticed the man who had been standing behind MO Ruyue. Although his face was covered by half a silver mask and they couldn’t see his face clearly, his tall and elegant figure made people unable to look away.

No one knew what kind of relationship he had with MO Ruyue. No one dared to ask what kind of relationship they had.

Even if someone was secretly wondering if the two of them had a very ambiguous relationship, they would definitely not dare to ask at this time.

So what if he was?

Lady Qin was a widow, and no one could force her to not remarry, so it was not strange that a man didn’t mind her bringing five children with her.

Everyone knew that Lady Qin’s medical skills were exquisite and superb, and she had the ability to make a lot of money every day. She was also young and beautiful, so it was simply too easy to find a more outstanding second spring.

Gu Ying had long noticed that the others were looking at him differently, but he didn’t take it to heart.

As long as he glanced over, those gazes would subconsciously turn away, not daring to meet his gaze.

“Lady Qin, we’ve all thought it through. We’ll go to that town with you. As long as we can survive, even if we have to eat tree bark and grass roots, we’ll be able to survive.”

It was still the same uncle from before. After discussing with all the survivors, he acted as a representative to talk to MO Ruyue.

Everyone unanimously chose to leave. No one wanted to stay in this hopeless place and bitterly wait for death to come.

“Alright, then let’s prepare to cook You’ll only have strength after eating. Those who are injured or sick, come to me for treatment according to the severity of their injuries.”

MO Ruyue began to command swiftly and decisively.

The majority of the survivors were male, and their natural gender advantage made it easier for them to survive in the face of natural disasters.

So now, the men were the ones who carried the food down from the truck and started cooking.

The women, elderly, and children were given priority to receive treatment. Those who were not too seriously injured would help the men or simply teach them how to cook.

Everyone worked together and divided the work, so the efficiency was very

At this time, in order to let the injured recover as soon as possible, MO Ruyue used the spirit spring water in the medium after weighing the pros and cons.

Although the dosage was not much, it was enough for them to quickly heal their internal and external injuries and recover their physical strength. It would lay a solid foundation for them to be accepted by the new town in the future.

MO Ruyue stayed in this tent area for five days, and the food that was prepared by evening was all gone.

It was time to move.

There were only a few dozen people who survived in the entire county. Compared to the large number of refugees, it was considered a very small scale.

But it wasn’t easy to bring these dozens of people with her.

MO Ruyue only had one carriage, and even if the most seriously injured person were to ride in it, it could only accommodate four or five people.

She and Gu Ying even gave up their two black horses and walked on foot.

Even so, the team’s speed was still very slow.

Fortunately, after a few days of treatment with the spirit spring water, many of the men in the team recovered the fastest. They also tried to find wood and other things to make some stretchers and trailers, which could be considered as more means of transportation.

Last time, it was Gu Ying who had driven the carriage to send Doctor Li off. For the 50-mile distance, he had to take care of his health and slowly walk for a long time.

With the long queue and those who had yet to recover from their injuries, it was impossible for them to make it in a day.

MO Ruyue had the foresight to reserve some grain and make it into long-lasting dry food, which just happened to come in handy at this time.

During the lunch break, MO Ruyue brought two women to distribute dry food to everyone. At the same time, she said to them, “Save your food. We still have dozens of miles to go. At this speed, we have to eat at least three meals on the way.”

She estimated that they would arrive around this time the next day, so she had to save the remaining dry food for three meals.

Of course, MO Ruyue had enough supplies in her space, but she would not take them out for them to use without limit. Moreover, the survivors had been moving food and medicine from the carriages these days, so they knew what was inside.

She had conjured another batch of supplies out of thin air. Even if she had done these people a favor, it was hard to guarantee that they would not leak the secret under any circumstances.

“Lady Qin, don’t worry. It’s fine even if we don’t eat anything for the next three meals. Now that I have something to look forward to, I don’t care about starving for a meal or two.”

Now, these survivors all treated MO Ruyue as a living Buddha and listened to her every word.

The sun was strong at noon, so the rest time was slightly extended. It was not until an hour later that everyone set off again.

The night fell earl. Mo Ruvue also called for the troops to stop and start

camping.

They were still twenty miles away from the small town, and they would be able to reach it by noon the next day.

They could still see the ruins after the disaster, which made all the survivors feel a lingering fear. They were secretly glad that they had met MO Ruyue.

Otherwise, if they were to drag their injured, hungry, and weak bodies to walk more than 50 miles, who knew how many people would fall on the road and never reach their destination again?

MO Ruyue sat by the bonfire, using the stone pot that Gu Ying had made for her to cook porridge.

‘Gu Ying, that sword of yours that can cut through iron as if it were mud has fallen into my hands. It’s like a pearl cast in the dark.”

As she threw the dried food into the pot, she used chopsticks made of wooden sticks to completely dissolve the dried food in water.

It was already early spring, but the power of the cold of late spring could not be underestimated.

To be able to drink a mouthful of warm porridge in the cold night wind was simply an immortal-like enjoyment.

I only made this pot. You gave the pot to someone else and left nothing for yourself.

Originally, MO Ruyue could also eat with the survivors, but she wanted the survivors to relax and not be so restrained. In the end, she had to choose to cook alone.

When she was around, they would treat her with respect and speak to her with caution. This was not the result MO Ruyue wanted.

“Alright, we’ll send them to the small town tomorrow afternoon and settle them down. Then, we can continue on our way.

MO Ruyue could only send them here. How they wanted to live the rest of their lives was up to them.

“Come, try the porridge I made. Although I didn’t put any special seasoning, it still tastes good.”

She scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it slightly, and brought it to Gu Ying’s mouth. Her eyes were filled with playfulness and slyness.

“It’s delicious. Even if you don’t put anything in your cooking, it’ll still be the

Gu Ying had always been full of praise for MO Ruyue..
