Kapitel 16: Chaos Will Happen

Redakteur: Henyee Translations

Gu Yunshu grabbed her hand. "Eldest Sister, has Father already entered the city?"

"I'm not too sure. I'll ask around first."

Gu Yundong found a plot of land at the side and brought them to sit down and rest. When the fatigue passed, she began to ask about Father Gu's whereabouts.

She did not dare to leave Madam Yang and the others alone, so she simply brought them along.

There were too many people at the city gate. It was not easy to find one person.

In particular, many people looked at them as if they were about to pounce on them and tear them apart at any moment. Gu Yundong did not dare to relax at all. She kept holding the dagger in her hand.

However, after walking through more than half of the 'refugee area', there was no gain at all. Not to mention Father Gu, even Old Gu and the others seemed to have disappeared.

Gu Yunke, who was hanging in the basket in front of Madam Yang, was already so hungry that her stomach was rumbling. After holding it in for a long time, she finally couldn't help but poke out half of her head. "Big Sister, I'm hungry."

Before Gu Yundong could speak, Gu Yunshu had already comforted her. "Little Sister, we don't have anything to eat, so we have to find Father quickly. Perhaps he has something to eat."

"Really?" Gu Yunke swallowed, and her eyes lit up slightly.

Gu Yunshu nodded heavily. "Yes, so can you bear with it?"

Their conversation was neither loud nor soft, and the people nearby could hear it.

Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows in surprise. She patted her brother's head and said in a low voice, "Great job."

Of course, there was still food, but there were so many pairs of eyes watching. If they took it out, it would be snatched away.

She was also very surprised that the little guy would answer like this.

Gu Yunshu was still a little nervous. He was afraid that he would say something wrong and he even lied to his sister. However, he did not expect his eldest sister to praise him. He immediately straightened his chest excitedly. "I… I understand."

Along the way, he had been watching how Big Sister dealt with those people with ill intentions. He actually wanted to help Big Sister share the burden, but he was afraid that he would cause trouble if he did something wrong, so he only watched and did not say anything.

He had subconsciously replied just now, but he did not expect himself to be right.

Gu Yunshu was instantly delighted. He did not feel bitter or tired at all.

Next, when Gun Yundong asked about Father Gu's whereabouts, occasionally he would interject with a few questions.

Unfortunately, even when it was almost dark, he did not find any useful clues.

It was obvious that Father Gu was either in the city or he hadn't arrived yet. The worst outcome would be that he was already dead.

Gu Yunshu's happy expression disappeared, and his mood became gloomy.

Beside him, Gu Yundong's expression was also much more solemn.

As expected, something was wrong.

After walking around, she realized that many young and strong men were gathered in twos and threes. Their eyes were shining with a certain determined madness.

This phenomenon was very dangerous.

The family of four walked back to the resting area. The old man from before asked with concern, "Is there any news?"

"Not yet."

The old man sighed. "In this world, it's too difficult to find someone. But don't be discouraged. You'll find him eventually."

"Okay." Gu Yundong put down Madam Yang's basket. Only then did she have the time to take a sip of water from the bamboo tube. She turned around and handed the bamboo tube to Gu Yunshu. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sir, I'm afraid it's not going to be peaceful here."

"I know." The old man smiled bitterly. "The city gate is closed, and no one comes out to provide porridge. There are more and more people, and everyone has nothing to eat. We're forced into a corner, and we're about to lose our lives. How can we not be in chaos?"

Gu Yundong pursed her lips. She also had a feeling that in the next two days, the refugees would think of ways to break into the city gate.

At that time, the city would be in chaos.
