The escapees who had gone hungry for two days acted as though they were under a spell. When they heard the word "food," everyone made a mad dash to Jiang Wu's group.
They had long since noticed this group of people. Although Jiang Wu and her students were on good terms with Ren Xiaosu's group, there was still a separation between them. Didn't the two groups also sit separately while eating?
But they did not understand that Jiang Wu was only trying to be independent so they would not become a burden to Ren Xiaosu's group.
Just as the crowd was about to make a rush for Jiang Wu and her students, Chen Wudi stepped forward to get between them. Since he had been instructed by his master to protect the campsite, he would have to do it even if a million troops descended down on them!
