Mo Ranran led Niu Niu to in front of her father, and Niu Niu immediately stood up from the ground, ”Miss Mo.” Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Mo Ranran holding onto Niu Niu's hand.

”Don't worry, I just want to ask you something.” Mo Ranran looked at the somewhat hurried man in front of him, and said with a smile.

”Miss Mo, you can ask whatever you want. As long as I know, I will definitely tell you.” Niu Niu's dad felt embarrassed by Mo Ranran's smile and said naively.

Mo Ranran led Niu Niu to find a place to sit down and asked curiously, ”Why are you guys so afraid of outsiders?”

Niu Niu looked at Mo Ranran with a face full of hesitation, not knowing whether to say it or not.

”In the past, although our village couldn't be said to be rich, we weren't worried about food and clothing. Ever since the plague started, there have been too many refugees coming from the border. Those people were very hungry and anxious. Seeing that we were not willing to give them anything to eat, they started to rob us. Quite a few people in our village died at the hands of those people, and all the food in the village was taken by them. ” Niuniu's father seemed to recall the tragedy that occurred at that time. His eyes were red, and fury flashed across them.

”Didn't you hit him back?” Mo Ranran raised his eyebrows, even if he was hungry, there were still a lot of people in his village, so it should not be a problem for him to face a group of people who were so hungry that they had no strength left.

”Those who did it were all people who were infected with the plague. Everyone is afraid of getting infected by the plague …” There was a trace of repressed emotion in Niu Niu's father's voice. Those people felt that they wouldn't be able to live much longer. Not only were they vicious when fighting, but there were even some who wanted to spread the plague into their village.

”We're not refugees, why are you still so wary of us?” Someone at the side could not help but ask.

”Before you, there was also a group of people who said that they wanted to spend the night with us. Seeing that they were dressed rather well, we probably wouldn't miss our little bit of food and let them in. ”That night, they killed the Village Head and his family. We only found out the next day.” When he thought about the killing methods of those people, Niu Niu's dad still felt a little panicked.

Mo Ranran sighed. Although Niu Niu did not explain in detail, she knew that the scene back then must have been bloody. Otherwise, the people in the village would not have rejected them so much.

”Everyone, if you don't mind, please stay in our village tonight.” Niu Niu looked at the crowd and slowly said.

Mo Ranran looked at the village ahead, and asked softly: ”Can I?”

”Sure, I'll go and talk to my grandma for a while.” In order to prove that she could stay here, after speaking, Niu Niu walked into the village. Niu Niu looked at her father, released Mo Ranran's hand, and ran forward.

The two of them headed straight for the only house in the village that was slightly better.

Niuniu's father nervously knocked on the door and said in a low voice, ”Grandma, open the door, I have something to discuss with you.”

There was no response for a long time.

Niu Niu raised her head and looked at her father doubtfully, ”Daddy, is Grandma asleep?”

He rubbed Niuniu's head and slowly said, ”Grandma, I know you haven't slept, they are not the people from last time, they are good people.”

There was no one in the house to answer.

”Elder, there's no more food in the village. They have some, so they're willing to give it to us.” Today, he definitely had to tell her that he knew how to pass on her word to his grandma.

”Tell them we don't lack food.” The old man's powerful voice sounded from within the door.

”Elder, the wild vegetables are getting fewer and fewer. Without food, the people in the village will starve to death.” Niu Niu's dad knew that his grandma was a bit shaken, otherwise she wouldn't have spoken up.

The old woman did not reply.

”Those people are lucky enough to get their hands on medicinal herbs. There's even a doctor inside.” Noticing that the grandma was silent, Niu Niu's father hesitated for a moment before whispering.

As soon as Niuniu's dad said this, the people from the house near the grandma pushed open the door.

”Niuniu dad, is what you said true? They have medicinal herbs and doctors? ” The person who spoke was an aunt, and her voice sounded a little agitated.

”Really, I saw it with my own eyes.” Niu Niu's father paused, his voice was a little depressed, ”As long as they can stay here, maybe the villagers can be saved …”

”Elder, please let them in.” When the aunt heard this, her excited voice trembled.

”Elder …”

More and more people came out of the house to help Niuniu's dad.

After a while, the door finally opened and an old man with a head full of white hair walked out. He had a walking stick in his hand, but he did not walk slowly.

”Niuniu dad, come with me.” The old woman said as she walked out of the village.

Niu Niu's father led his grandma to the entrance of the village. Some of the braver villagers also followed after her.

Grandma swept her eyes across the crowd, and her gaze landed on Mo Feiye's body, but just as she was about to speak, she was cut off by Mo Ranran.

Mo Ranran pointed at the crown prince, her beautiful eyes twinkling slightly. ”Elder, if you have anything to say to him, say it.
