Third Grandpa saw Third Grandma crying and scolded her lightly, "Stop crying, woman, and start packing. Let's go out and find the others."
Third Grandma quickly wiped her tears and said, "Yes, yes, yes, let's pack and go out quickly. Now isn't the time to cry."
Those evil men were too cruel. Who knows how the villagers are faring? How many are still alive? They had to go out to find the others quickly. If they couldn't find any survivors, they would at least recover the bodies of the slain villagers.
Ms. Chu and Mrs. Cui also began gathering things with their children.
They had fled in a hurry and hadn't brought much, just some food and water.
The men from the families carried wooden sticks, clubs, and machetes, making do with these makeshift weapons.
Gu Jinli had even fewer belongings, carrying only the cloth bag filled with coarse salt given by the Qi Mansion, and grabbing her dagger, she was ready to go.
