Qi You's heartbeat was almost half a beat, and he slowly put the child on the ground. Then he picked up the tables and chairs that had been discarded by the host’s family and folded them together.

It was a gray cloth bag. Although the color was dull, the fabric was still soft to the touch. It was not ordinary fabric.

Qi You opened the cloth bag, and there was a box inside with a lock on it. This might be a headache for others. But Qi You broke the lock easily with a stone knife.

Qi You originally thought that in such a secret location, the things in it should be more expensive. However, he opened the box and found that it was yellow powder.

Qi You happened to recognize that it was sulfur powder.

Qi Mu and Lin's sister and brother had never met, and curiously asked, "You'er, what is this?"

Qi You twitched his mouth stiffly, unable to conceal his loss, and said, "This is sulfur powder."

"It can be sterilized, that is, it can remove bad things, and it can also remove pests in the field."

Father Qi was surprised, "How did you know? Have you seen it?"

Qi You was also shocked, and subconsciously asked, "Daddy hasn't seen it before?"

Father Qi shook his head, "For such precious things, where can I see a muddy leg."

Qi You wanted to say, is it just sulfur powder, or is it something rare?

Natural and relatively pure sulfur monomer minerals can be obtained in many places, such as near volcanoes.

He had watched a popular science program before, heating mud-like sulphur and ore to 200 degrees Celsius. When the sulfur melts, filter out the unmelted substances, continue to heat and stir constantly, so that part of the impurities vaporize and evaporate, and the sulfur boils at 400 degrees Celsius. Collect the sulfur gas, cool the sulfur gas to solidify, and then get pure sulfur.

As long as there are conditions, any ordinary person can do it.

Qi Youmeng remembered, yes, this was in ancient times, and it was nothing.

And depending on the fineness of the sulfur powder, most people can't get it.

Sulfur is easy to get, but it is difficult to keep improving.

But Father Qi shouldn't have never seen it at all.

It was only later that Qi You learned that there was a nobleman who had been harmed by sulfur. His Majesty now hates him deeply, and because it is poisonous, the government strictly controls it. Ordinary people are not easy to see, even if they meet occasionally, they are still used as medicine.

But now he can't figure it out, forget it, don't want it if he doesn't understand it.

He closed the box and wrapped it in cloth. Although he felt that the sulfur powder was useless for the time being, it was white and not heavy, so he took it with him.

Qi You touched the child's head and praised him, "The small pillar is so powerful, you can see all the hidden things. She is really a little treasure digger."

The child's face was red with excitement, and his eyes twinkled like bright stars in the night sky.

Qi You felt that all the hesitation in his heart was gone when he met such a pair of eyes.

It is man-made, as long as they have the intention, they will be able to get rid of the current predicament.

Qi You cheered himself up in his heart, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.

The roads are all made by people, and Qi You doesn't believe that he is a good man standing upright, and he can't break a **** path from this predicament.

He squatted in front of Father Qi and patted his shoulder: "Father, come up soon, we may be on the road overnight tonight."

Father Qi didn't move, but looked at him with unidentified emotions in his eyes, "You'er, listen to Dad. There is a trail out of the county seat in Pu'an County. Later you will go out and follow the medicine shop to the right. Keep walking until you meet the third corner, then turn left and walk one hundred and fifty steps. Turn right and walk eighty steps, and you will see a dark trail, when you take your mother and Miao'er Sister and brother"

"Father!" Qi You interrupted him in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"

Father Qi smiled bitterly. He thumped his lame leg and asked Qi You, "Do you think Dad can run away like this?"

Father Qi sighed and said earnestly: "You'er, Dad has nothing to do with his life, but his decades of life experience are not fake. It's just a face-to-face, and Dad will see that the so-called Brother Zhang is not a good kind. An County has been drought for two full years. There is no water or food. You'er, why is he still alive?"

Qi You's expression was shocked, and he looked back at his father inconceivably, and said in a dumb voice: "You guessed it?"

Father Qi: "You'er, Dad is not a fool. Even if he didn't understand it at first, he should understand it after seeing someone."

Mother Qi and the others didn’t know what dumb riddles the father and son were playing, and even the simple little pillar asked stupidly: "Brother-in-law, that big brother Zhang has no water or food, how did he survive? Is he a god? Can he not eat or drink? of."

"No." Qi You turned sideways, holding the child's weak shoulders with both hands, keeping his sight level, calmly exposing the dark side of human nature to him, "There are no gods in this world, and no one can not eat or drink. Live."

Xiao Zhuzi was puzzled, "But Big Brother Zhang survived, and it was the county where you said there was no water and no food, brother-in-law."

"Yes, there is nothing in the county. How did he survive?" Qi You's voice was light and fluttering, like a ghost, "Because Big Brother Zhang is a cannibal. He can eat human flesh when he is hungry, and drink human blood when he is thirsty. He survived."

The small pillars were shocked, even the eyeballs couldn't move.

"You, Brother You, you just laughed." The girl's panic voice sounded in a low voice, her eyes flushed and her lips trembled fiercely. It seemed that as long as Qi You nodded, she would be able to cry.

Xiaozhuzi heard her sister's voice, and finally recovered. His eyes blinked, big tears fell down, crying and choked, "No, don't eat Xiaozhu, Xiaozhu hasn't taken a bath for a long time, Xiaozhu It smells so bad that it doesn't taste good at all."

Qi You couldn't laugh or cry, took the child into his arms, and gently patted his back to comfort him.

Father Qi took the time to stare at him disapprovingly, "What do you say to the child, what should you do if you frighten the little pillar?"

Qi You helplessly said: "Father's words are wrong. If the world is peaceful, Xiaozhu naturally doesn't need to know this. But you can see the current situation. We have just taken the first step of escape and encountered this kind of thing. Go, the danger will only be more. If I don’t lay a precaution for him early in the morning, let him know that he will be cheated and bullied in the future, and it will be too late to lose his life."

Father Qi still doesn't agree with his son's point of view, "but"

Qi You: "Father, Xiao Zhuzi needs to grow up. In this troubled world, he will not be treated more kindly because of his age. On the contrary, his weakness will become his original sin and the cause of his bullying. Only he can stand by himself. Only when he gets up can he live and live well."

Qi You opened the child in his arms. There was a distance of three fists between the two. He said in a tone that was so stable that he almost mistakenly thought he was talking about the weather: "Those cannibals are nothing terrible, they The same will bleed and the same will die. As long as we are strong enough, we can kill him first. The small pillar is a man, and a man is not afraid of anything, right."

"Woo... The little pillar is not a man, brother-in-law, the little pillar is scared, and the little pillar doesn't want to be eaten by others." The child didn't hold on for a moment, and threw himself into Qi You's arms again, crying in a low voice.

Qi You: ...This is different from what was said, hello!

Qi You hurriedly coaxed the child. If he knew he would be tactful ==

He didn't dare to look at his father's face. Fortunately, he just vowed to let the child grow up, and he made people cry before he could get a cup of tea.

The face slap came too fast, like a tornado, and caught him off guard.

As a result, the little one hadn't been coaxed yet, and another weak sob sounded in a low voice.

Qi You: An unknown premonition suddenly arose.

He slowly raised his head and ran into the girl's crying red eyes.

"Brother You, Miao'er is scared, Miao'er is so scared." After raising for two days, the girl's voice was no longer so hoarse and unpleasant, and slightly brought out the crispness that should be at this age. People softened their hearts.

Qi You: ...I knew this before, why is his mouth so cheap? Wouldn't it be okay to take people away quietly?

Qi You had to hold the child in his arms, stood up, walked two steps towards Lin Miao'er, then stopped, hesitated for a moment, and after all, he was still unsatisfied and tentatively stretched out his hand and took the person into his arms. Here, "Don’t be afraid of Miao’er, I will protect you, stop crying, Miao’er behave, don’t cry or cry"

Qi You didn't do much to coax people, just those two sentences over and over again, but fortunately, Lin Miao'er was quite face-saving and stopped crying after venting for a while.

After Lin Miao'er stopped crying and looked at the sky outside, she immediately became anxious, "Brother You, hurry up, hurry up, let's get out of here quickly, it's getting dark soon."

Mother Qi turned to look outside, surprised and scared, seeing her son and then her husband, the panic and fear on her face almost overflowed, "What...what to do, what to do? It's getting dark, those who eat...eat The demons will come to catch us."

She was too scared, shaking her lips, her words were uncomfortable.

"I'm afraid of being a master." Wherever she has encountered such horrible things, she has never heard of them before.

Qi You asked his father, "Do you want to leave my mother behind? How helpless my mother would be without you."

Father Qi: "She still has you. I believe you will take care of her."

Qi You: "But I'm just a son. For a woman, what she wants to rely on most is not her son, but her husband."

"Father, do you really want your mother to face the dangerous world outside alone in the future?"

"I..." Qi's father was speechless, his wife's eye was intact, and he looked at him baffledly, and all the words he thought about next came back into his throat.

Qi You struck the iron while it was hot, patted Lin Miaoer's back comfortably, then let go of her, handed the small pillar into her arms, turned and walked to Father Qi, "Let's go, father, don't delay anymore."

Father Qi gritted his teeth and looked at the slightly immature young man's back in front of him. After all, he couldn't refuse.

"Okay, let's go."

Qi You carried Qi's father on his back and greeted Qi's mother and the others, "You must follow me at all times."

Lin Miao'er and the others nodded solemnly.

Qi You looked out the door, his heart sullen, and stepped out.

They rushed all the way, but they were not too fast for the night to come.

"Yes, turn left, go forward, continue, continue, hurry up" Qi's father listened to the messy and heavy footsteps behind him, and kept urging his son.

Those people are catching up.

As they approached the last trail, they saw they were about to escape, but behind them came the call of the evil spirit: "Brother Qi, it's so late, where are you going?"
